Chapter 102: Martial King vs. Martial King (3)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

However…

Gu Ruoyun narrowed her eyes and spoke to the being that resided within her soul, "Zixie, if General Luo or Luo Yin should ever be in danger, take action. Saving their lives is more important. While I do need them to stall the Martial King before me, I don’t want them to be in danger just because of me. Hence, when the time comes, I’m leaving it all to you."

Gu Ruoyun did not intend to use Zixie in a battle, unless she was left with no other choice.

After a moment of deep silence, the man’s demonic yet charming voice spoke from within her soul, "Alright, I understand…"

…

"Haha!"

General Luo laughed aloud, "Honestly, I don't want to make an enemy of you either. As long as you follow me quietly, and after I’ve investigated your identity thoroughly, I’ll definitely let you go."

"Hmph!"

The eyes of the man in black turned cold, he replied in a sinister tone, "It would seem like you’ve chosen to disregard my warning and protect her. So… I can only choose to send you to hell first."

The man’s figure rushed towards General Luo in a flash, just like a ghost. His eerie voice was so close to the general, it as if it was just beside his ears.

"A lower level Martial General dares to show such audacity in front of me. I’d like to see, just how you’re going to take me away now!"

However, before he could reach General Luo, the imperial troops rushed forward to block him from his attack…

"A bunch of ants. Get out of my way!"

The man roared angrily and struck the chest of every soldier. They were all fiercely thrown out of the way as if they had been struck by heavy rocks. Then, fresh blood flowed from their noses as they lay on the ground in agony, it was extremely terrifying…

Although he already knew of the extent of a Martial King’s power, General Luo could not help but break into a cold sweat upon the sight of his opponent's devastation of his troops — all from one single roar.

However, the circumstances did not allow for him to retreat, nor would he permit himself to do so.

Gu Ruoyun’s eyebrows knit into an even deeper crease, she lowered her eyes and muttered, "Zixie, prepare for battle."

"Relax, I’m already fully prepared. If he were to be in danger, I’ll come out at once."

The man’s voice slowly entered her ears. Upon hearing this, Gu Ruoyun miraculously calmed down.

She knew, that with Zixie around, there would not be any problems…

"Did you really think that you’d be able to stop me with trash like these, kid?" The man in black sneered as he spoke with a sinister expression, "Once I've decided to kill someone, no one can stop me! So I’ll give you another chance. Leave!"

"Haha!"

General Luo laughed openly, holding the formidable might of a military man.

"I have met countless dangers on the battlefield. If I were actually afraid of death, then I wouldn’t be standing in this position today! I’m not like that old man from the Gu family. He became the general of our nation thanks to his ancestor’s blessings and his genius son, Gu Tian. However, I achieved everything I have no by walking step by step, up the ladder, on my own! Did you really think that I would be a coward, who would leave his troops behind and run away from the battlefield?"

The middle-aged man’s presence held a grand sort of elegance. Compared with that cowardly, weak and old General Gu, this was the image of a truly prestigious general.

"Fine, since you want to die, then I’ll grant your wish!"

A great wave hit him, causing a loud rumble. This made General Luo stumble a few steps backward. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned deathly pale.

However, he stood his ground in resolution, not allowing his legs to bend, not even a little.

Being a hot-blooded male, General Luo would rather die standing than show even a hint of weakness in front of an enemy.
