Episode 23: Fallen Flowers in a Dream,

Chapter 1: You. In this battle

, Anlong received news that the Emperor had returned to the city. The guards outside the city were actually composed of warriors from the Earth Alliance; therefore, those guarding the city gates were all Anlong's confidants. Upon seeing the Emperor, they naturally understood his identity. They used an excuse to prevent the Emperor from entering the city while simultaneously sending someone to inform Anlong. Anlong hurriedly led his men to the city. Luo Ye used an excuse to inform Xiping…
It was quite normal that the soldiers guarding the city didn't recognize the Emperor; even ordinary people passing by wouldn't recognize him. The Emperor's identity was often kept secret, and those without a certain status
wouldn't be able to recognize him. Quan Qingguo wasn't bothered that the guards didn't recognize him, but the fact that they were being blocked outside the city made them uneasy. Generally speaking, this situation rarely occurred unless something special happened in the city; otherwise, it was impossible to arbitrarily stop people from entering. What was even stranger was that everyone else was able to enter the city.
More and more imperial guards were pouring out of the city…
Liang Liqiong whispered, “Won’t there be a problem?”
Quan Qingguo said, “I’m not sure either. Luo Xiong has imprisoned me in the Earth Alliance, so Fog City probably won’t be peaceful. But I can’t imagine what he might do.”
Zhi Cang asked, “Why won’t they allow… us… to enter the city?”
The Japanese prince said, “They didn’t say we couldn’t enter the city, they just told us to wait.” He turned to look at Quan Qingguo and said, “I’ve already brought you this far. My agreement with Huang Xiping has been fulfilled. I’m leaving now to go back and settle accounts with Huang Xiping.”
Miyukiko said, “Brother, let’s wait two more days! Now that we’ve come to the capital of the Central Plains, I want to stay here for a few days. Is that alright?”
“We’ve been in the Central Plains for a while now. We’ve settled our scores, so we should go back.”
Miyukiko said, “But since we’re here, let’s go in and take a look!”
“Sachiko, you don’t seem angry about Yamamoto’s death anymore?”
Misachiko lowered her head and said, “Brother, please don’t mention that. Yamamoto loved Eiko. I was indeed very sad when he died, but looking back, I seem to have been a bit foolish. Murano loved me, but I didn’t love him, and Yamamoto, whom I loved, didn’t love me. Now they are both dead, killed by that beast named Huang Xiping. But…but, brother, I…every time I think of Huang Xiping, I…—I hate him so much…”
Jikura exclaimed, “Princess…Princess, you haven’t fallen in love with him, have you?”
They were speaking in Japanese, which Quan Qingguo and Liang Liqiong couldn’t understand, but they saw Misachiko’s face turn red and heard her muttering to herself. Actually, she was saying to Jikura, “How could I…fall in love with that beast?”
“Actually, there’s a legend called ‘The Beast and the Beauty,’ which I heard is very tragic.”
Misachiko stared at her brother, not understanding why he was talking about the beast and the beauty.
"What does this have to do with me?"
"You're a beauty!"
"Brother, why are you joking with me?"
Quan Qingguo said, "Please speak the Central Plains dialect, I can't understand what you're saying."
At this moment, the general guarding the city suddenly walked over and said to them, "You can come in now. Sorry to have kept you waiting."
Quan Qingguo asked, "What's your name?"
"I think you wouldn't want to know me, hahaha..." The general laughed and turned to walk into the city gate.
Quan Qingguo followed him in, thinking that he should dismiss the general. The Eastern Prince followed with his forty or fifty subordinates...
"This person dares to impersonate me, kill him!"
Just as Quan Qingguo and his party entered the city, they saw that the city gate was surrounded by three or four hundred imperial guards, all of whom were warriors from the Earth Alliance. The city gate closed at the same time, and Quan Qingguo immediately realized that they had fallen into the Earth Alliance's trap.
What surprised him most was that the person standing in front of him looked exactly like him—Luo Xiong had actually sent someone to impersonate him in an attempt to seize his kingdom?
"You lot, I am the Emperor of the world, who dares to touch me?"
However, with a single command from Anlong, "Kill!"
Without allowing Quan Qingguo any explanation, three or four hundred warriors from the land began their encirclement and slaughter.
The Japanese prince spoke in the Central Plains dialect, "Now I dare not believe who the true Emperor is, but I believe Huang Xiping. Explanations are useless; I don't want to hear any explanations. Only absolute force can solve the problem. Let us fight side by side! Emperor of the Central Plains! Warriors of Yamato, let us wash the road with blood!"
Quan Qingguo suddenly whispered to Liang Liqiong, "Liqiong, if I unfortunately die, have Huang Xiping avenge me. He is the Prince Consort; he has an obligation to avenge his brother-in-law. No matter how much he hates me, it is what he must do. This empire may be doomed."
Liang Liqiong said, "Your Majesty, don't say discouraging things. We will try our best to cover your escape back to the palace."
"Since Luo Xiong has sent someone to impersonate me, the entire palace must be under his control. The only way forward is to eliminate this false force so I can have a foothold. As the ruler of a nation, I will not desert my post." At
that moment, the warriors of the Earth Alliance surged forward, and the Japanese warriors also charged fearlessly with their swords drawn, causing chaos at the city gates…
Anlong and Yang Yi joined forces to attack Quan Qingguo, but were stopped by the Japanese prince, resulting in a draw. Anlong and Yang Yi, two of the four protectors of the Earth Alliance, were always arrogant, but they hadn't expected the Japanese prince to be so skilled in martial arts. The two of them found it increasingly difficult to fight the Japanese prince.
Apart from the Japanese prince and a few others, the Japanese warriors were no match for the warriors of the Earth Alliance. Although the Japanese warriors were fearless, the Earth Alliance warriors who came were all hand-picked elites of the Earth Alliance, and the Earth Alliance also had an overwhelming numerical advantage. How could these forty or fifty Japanese warriors possibly stand against the three or four hundred elites of the Earth Alliance?
Before long, the disadvantage became apparent. Half of the Japanese warriors were killed or wounded, and the Japanese prince was being held back by Anlong and Yang Yi. Several of the more skilled warriors, including Liang Liqiong, Quan Qingguo, Zhicang, and Miyukiko, were surrounded and attacked by the Earth Alliance warriors and had no way to escape. Everyone knew in their hearts that this trip might really be a bloodbath at the city gates!
Zhi Cang said, "Your Highness, we shouldn't have come to the Central Plains. If I had known my elder brother would die like that, I would never have set foot on this land. To die in the Central Plains, I refuse to accept it! I want to die on our own land; a warrior's soul should be loyal to his homeland!"
"Shorty, your mistake wasn't coming to the Central Plains, but that you became an enemy of the Earth Alliance. Be prepared! Today, you have no chance of survival. Don't think that just because you brought a few men, you can be our enemy. Back then, Huang Xiping could have easily dealt with you all by himself. Although we don't have Huang Xiping's idiotic abilities, in terms of numbers, we are stronger! No matter how strong you are, I can exchange ten of my heads for one of yours, and you can't do anything about it, haha! You're a prince, aren't you? To be honest, I haven't lived in vain. I've been an emperor and even killed a prince. If word gets out, I, Anlong, am a hero of my time!"
Quan Qingguo cursed, "Anlong, don't be too smug. If I survive today, I will exterminate your entire clan!"
"Oh, wasn't it supposed to be nine generations? Now you're adding another generation for me? Bah! My parents died long ago, I have no brothers, no children, just a bachelor. You want to exterminate nine generations? Looks like you've been emperor for too long and become an idiot! Even if a miracle happens, if you want to exterminate me, you can only exterminate me. Nine generations? I have nine generations, but I'm not going to fight in the martial world anymore. Save it! In hell, you'll just be a little devil. Don't think being an emperor is anything special; I'm an emperor now too..."
Yang Yi cursed, "Dark Dragon, what nonsense are you spouting? Kill this guy with the knife as soon as possible. He's disgusting, skinny and tall, trying to act cool. I can't stand him; I bet his dick is small and short."
"Yang Yi, you slut, why are you bringing up dicks? That's what hurts me the most..."
"Sorry, I forgot you're impotent."
"Damn it, you slut, after this is over, I'll get you a few donkeys!"
Quan Qingguo exclaimed in surprise, "Dark Dragon, are you impotent?"
Yang Yi laughed seductively, "Your Majesty, don't worry, although he's been emperor for a long time, he only made money off you, he didn't touch your women. He can't get an erection at all, haha, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to pretend until now... He's been avoiding your concubines, he hasn't cuckolded you. But you're about to die, why are you worried about this?"
Quan Qingguo said, "Yang Yi, if I don't die, I'll have thousands of soldiers gang rape you to death!"
"Oh, I like it! But why don't you threaten me yourself? Do you think you're incapable of raping me to death? Look at you, you're not that strong, and that thing is probably quite short—ah! You bastard, you almost chopped me! Dark Dragon, where are you hiding? If I die, you'll die too. Do you think you can handle this cool-looking Japanese bamboo pole?"
Quan Qingguo had no time to argue with her. One by one, the Japanese samurai fell. He knew the situation was critical, but he couldn't break through the encirclement. Although Yang Yi was promiscuous and Dark Dragon was impotent, their martial arts skills were no joke. As one of the four protectors of the Earth Alliance, they were not easy to deal with.
Things weren't as easy as they made them out to be...
Miyukiko was already overwhelmed by the Earth Warriors, and Chikura was in dire straits. Quan Qingguo and Liang Liqiong had also suffered several minor injuries. Only the Eastern Prince was unharmed, forcing Yang Yi and Anlong to retreat step by step. However, he could hardly injure them either. If the fight dragged on, their fate would be sealed once all the Eastern Warriors were wiped out.
"Your Highness, please take my ashes back!"
Chikura suddenly shouted, wildly wielding his Eastern sword. With no way out, he unleashed thirty-six strikes, killing more than ten people in a flurry of blades. The moment his sword stopped, his small body collapsed to the ground, dead!
Two long swords pierced his chest from behind...
Miyukiko cried out, "Teacher Chikura!"
Her sword began to dart wildly, trying to reach where Chikura had fallen, but she couldn't move an inch. She was trapped in a small open space, desperately resisting all the attacks around her.
She felt her strength waning, knowing death was near, and cried out, "Brother, run away! Forget about us, forget about the Central Plains Emperor, you must return alive!"
"Hold on a little longer, I'll come save you!"
Dark Dragon sneered, "Do you think you have that ability? Surrounded by hundreds of people, to break through, in my knowledge, only Huang Xiping could do that. And you, unfortunately, you're not Huang Xiping!"
"Ah—" Miyuki cried out in agony as her right arm, holding the sword, was pierced by a flurry of swords, her hand falling to the ground. In her panic, she leaped upwards, four Earth Warriors following her into the air. With a series of sweeping kicks, she sent three of them flying, but she herself was kicked away by the fourth. Just as she was about to hit the ground, a large group of Earth Alliance warriors were waiting anxiously...
"Sachiko!" The Eastern Prince cried out in pain, his katana slashing fiercely at Dark Dragon and Yang Yi, trying to save his sister, but he only managed to force them back three steps.
"It's over!" Miyukiko's body fell uncontrollably. She knew that the moment she hit the ground, she would perish, so she consciously closed her eyes...
Just then, a loud roar was heard: "Everyone get out of the way!"
Thunder roared down, accompanied by the long sound of bones shattering.
Quan Qingguo exclaimed in surprise, "Brother-in-law, what brings you here?"
It turned out that Xiping had just arrived with his men. He had no knife in his hand, so he used his Thunder Explosion Fist, his body like an arrow rushing into the crowd. His thunderous fists blasted a path through the crowd in an instant.
At this moment, Miyukiko's body fell in front of him. He caught her with his left hand, and then said to Quan Qingguo, "Damn it, I haven't even admitted that I'm your brother-in-law yet!"
"Huang Xiping?!" A commotion arose from the crowd.
Miyukiko opened her eyes and saw Xiping embracing her. After letting out a long sigh, she closed her eyes again.
Xiping released her, and she fell to the ground, crying out, "Ouch! That hurts!"
"Who told you to pretend to be asleep!" Xiping scolded.
"You bastard, don't you know how to cherish a woman?"
Xi Ping said. "I don't like you, so
why would I cherish a woman?" "Then why did you save me?"
"Did I? I just saw some people fighting here, so I joined in. But then, a woman fell from the sky, and I just reached out my hand without thinking. It was completely unexpected. I never intended to save you."
Miyukiko rolled her eyes at him and stood up.
Strangely enough, all the samurai kept their distance from Xi Ping, focusing only on attacking the others, while Tang Si and the others also joined the battle.
"Hey, why aren't any of you fighting me? Dark Dragon, come on, I'll fight you!"
Xi Ping walked towards Dark Dragon. The Earth Warriors hurriedly dodged. Dark Dragon turned around and saw the situation, his heart filled with panic. His left hand was slashed by the Eastern Prince, but luckily the blow missed and didn't sever his hand. His mind raced. He knew the Earth Warriors had a phobia of Xi Ping, and he himself was terrified of Huang Xi Ping. From the moment Huang Xi Ping appeared, he felt despair. Now that Xi Ping was walking towards him, his legs went weak.
He hurriedly shouted, "Huang Xi Ping, don't come any closer! If you want to fight, find someone else! I won't fight you!"
No one expected Dark Dragon to say such a childish thing. It's true that fear of death is human nature.
"No, I love to fight. I don't fight those who surrender."
"I surrender to you!" Before Dark Dragon could say anything, Yang Yi cried out in panic.
Dark Dragon thought: Thank goodness, I'm not the only one afraid of death, everyone is afraid of death! Feeling somewhat comforted, he said to the Japanese prince, "Hey, we surrender! Why the hell aren't you stopping? Are you trying to force us to fight to the death?"
"Wait, if we surrender, can we live?" Yang Yi suddenly asked.
Xi Ping looked at Quan Qingguo, then heard Anlong say, "If it's all death, I'll fight to the death today."
Quan Qingguo looked around; the Earth Alliance still had nearly three hundred people. A real fight to the death would be extremely disadvantageous for him. He said, "If you can help me eliminate the Earth Alliance, I'll let you live."
Anlong said, "No, we won't betray our master. Surrendering is taking responsibility for our own lives..." He put it very nicely.
"Alright! As long as you surrender, I can let you go!"
"You mean it?"
"A king's word is his bond."

Chapter Two: The Last Moments

"Are you really letting them go?" Tang Si asked, watching Anlong lead his men away.
“A king’s word is his bond! Since I said I would release them, I cannot break my promise. However, next time it won’t be so easy. Let them live a few more days.”
Xi Ping asked, “What are your plans?”
“Let’s go back to the palace first.”
Tang Si said, “Brother, it turns out that the military power was controlled by Dark Dragon. Before you returned, many troops had already been dispatched, and local officials received a fake imperial edict and began to help the Earth Alliance…”
Quan Qingguo said, “This is an unchangeable fact. We can only remedy it. I will draft a new edict, making the local officials and those dispatched soldiers turn against the Earth Alliance. This time, I will definitely eliminate Luo Xiong! But you must understand that it takes time to deliver the edict. During this time, those officials and troops will still be under the command of the Earth Alliance. I cannot imagine what they will do. Tang Si, do you know how many troops have been dispatched?”
Tang Si said, "If we include the ground troops, I think there should be over 100,000 soldiers!"
Quan Qingguo exclaimed in surprise, "So many?"
"Yes."
"It seems that sects that are enemies of the Earth Alliance may all have to be expelled. Alas, it's all my fault. I wonder how many people will die."
"Brother, have you heard the legend?"
"What legend?"
"I heard, I heard that his woman—" Tang Si pointed to Xi Ping and continued, "also formed an army, about seven or eight people. This army comes from beyond the Great Wall, and their fighting strength is probably stronger than our army. In other words, our 100,000-plus troops may suffer similar heavy losses."
"It's like war; losses are inevitable. But this war was a mistake from the start. If I hadn't trusted Luo Xiong so easily, none of this would have happened. Alas, it's all my fault!"
Tang Si said, "You can't blame my brother, only Luo Xiong's wolfish ambition. My brother should understand who the good guys and bad guys are now, right?"
Quan Qingguo knew what she wanted to say, chuckled, and said, "I understand. Your man is a good guy. I've said he was a good guy before. You just said he was a bad guy."
Tang Si blushed. Quan Qingguo said, "We need to go back quickly. There are many things to deal with, otherwise the country will be in chaos."
"I also need to return to my homeland. Farewell." The Japanese prince suddenly said.
"You're going back now?" Quan Qingguo stared at the Japanese prince. "I haven't thanked you yet."
"No need." He looked around. He had brought over a hundred people with him, but now only twenty or so remained, which saddened him.
"Brother, didn't you say you were going to duel with Huang Xiping?" "Miyukiko said.
"There's no need for that. I'm no match for him, the result will be the same. If I had known he was this kind of person, I wouldn't have provoked him, and I would never have set foot in the Central Plains. I think I made a mistake coming here. I don't know how I'll face the Emperor when I go back. Sigh!"
Miyukiko said, "Brother, I want to stay here a few more days."
Quan Qingguo said, "Yes! Your samurai also need to heal their injuries. After they recover, I will send you back to your country."
The Japanese prince thought for a moment and said, "Alright."
"You're not going to fight me?" Xiping asked in surprise.
The Japanese prince smiled bitterly, "If I can't beat you, why bother?"
Xi Ping patted his shoulder and laughed, "Actually... I could secretly lose it to you..." Quan
Qingguo returned to the palace and began dealing with state affairs.
Upon returning, Xi Ping immediately sent Bruce out of the city while the emperor was away. Bruce didn't bid farewell to the emperor, only sending word that he would send another virgin next time, and had urgent business returning to Persia. After leaving the city, he went straight to Ziyan City, intending to wait there for Xi Ping to return and teach him fighting...
Due to many matters, Quan Qingguo had no time to attend to Bruce's Persian virgin, nor was he in the mood for it. The dynasty was almost destroyed by Luo Xiong, and at this moment, he only wanted Luo Xiong to disappear from the face of the earth… These things were beyond Xi Ping's comprehension. Aside from his interest in fighting and singing, or what he called his talent, he had neither interest nor talent in anything else.
Of course, lust was his talent and his interest—an exception.
The Empress and Empress Dowager, knowing the Emperor had returned, went to see him. At that time, the Emperor brought the Empress into his bedchamber. The Empress glared resentfully at Xi Ping, who thought, “Why are you glaring at me? That's your husband.” Regarding Xi
Ping's appearance at the palace, Tang Si explained to the Emperor that Xi Ping had arrived a day earlier than them.
The Emperor had settled Xi Ping and the others in a private courtyard in the outer palace. As for the Japanese samurai, they were arranged to recuperate at a manor outside the palace. Because the Emperor knew of the relationship between Mu Qiu and the nine women and Xi Ping, he publicly bestowed them upon Xi Ping, thus relieving the nine women of their burden.
In the evening, a palace maid relayed a message asking Xi Ping to go to the Empress Dowager's residence. Xi Ping met the Empress Dowager there and asked, "Aren't you afraid the Emperor will find out?"
The Empress replied, "The Emperor is too busy to deal with us right now; he has many other matters to attend to." The Empress Dowager asked
, "When do you plan to leave?"
"Tomorrow,"
the Empress said. "Do you remember our agreement?"
"You said you'd let me come in every year to steal your fragrance?" "
Good that you remember, "
Xi Ping laughed. "But how can I possibly come to Fog City every year?" The Empress Dowager asked
, "What do you do?" "
What do I do?" "Xi Ping didn't understand.
"I want to ask you what you do?"
"I, besides fighting and singing, I can't do anything. If you really want me to use other skills, I think I can heal people. I used to practice medicine in the village in place of my father."
The Empress Dowager said, "Alright, you can open pharmacies all over the country, and set up the head office in this city—"
"Wow, did you even ask me if I agreed? Open a pharmacy? Damn, doesn't Changchuntang have pharmacies all over the country? Why would I need to open one?"
"Is Changchuntang yours too?"
"It's not mine, but it's very much related to me. With Changchuntang, I'll never lack money in my life. Besides, there are three women in Changchuntang—no, two, hehe, they're my women..."
"Don't worry about not having money. Even we are yours. How could we be poor? We just want to know when you're coming back!" The Empress Dowager said impatiently.
The Empress said, "You have to come back to see your son when he's born next year."
"Wow, it might also be a daughter." "
The Empress Dowager said, 'If it's a daughter, you should come back even more.'
Xi Ping said fearfully, 'Then it must be a son!'
'Don't you want to come back?' the Empress Dowager and the Empress asked in unison.
Xi Ping scratched his head and said, 'I... don't like the palace. Why... can't you come out to find me?'
'You wish! Why should we come to find you? You should know our status...'
'Damn it, talking about status in front of me? You're just a woman, what status do you have? You're talking like an idiot!'
The two women sighed. There was no point in talking to this even more idiotic man. The Empress Dowager said, 'We won't force you. Just remember us and come back to keep us company when you have time. You don't like the palace, and neither do we. It's too lonely here. Can you bear to let us die in loneliness?'" Xi Ping remained silent. The Empress said, "
When you leave tomorrow, the Emperor will definitely want to say goodbye. I'll bring Dongzhi, Tingshi, and Rong'er with you then. Just tell him they're beautiful and you want them. The Emperor will grant your request. He has many women; he doesn't need these three. You are his savior, and the dynasty survives because of you. Therefore, it's not unreasonable for you to ask him for a few women. Didn't he say before that you could have any of his women?"
"He said that, but there's no need to be so ruthless,"
the Empress Dowager said. "Actually, thirty years from now, this dynasty might also be yours, because it will belong to your son."
Xi Ping started grinning foolishly again. The Empress said, "Now, spend some time with us!"
"What?" Xi Ping's foolish grin suddenly stopped, only to see the two women beginning to undress...
As night deepened, Xi Ping left the Empress Dowager's palace and entered the detached courtyard. He happened to run into Mei Xingzi. He glanced at her briefly and walked away, but then heard her say behind him, "Can you spend some time with me?"
He turned around and said, "How can I accompany you?"
"Walk with me, okay?"
Xi Ping said, "This place isn't very big, what can we possibly find?" Miyukiko
said, "As long as it's bigger than my feet."
"I'm telling you, we have no connection, no feelings, why did you choose me? My wife is waiting for me to go back!"
"Why do you hate me so much?"
"Because... just like liking, there's no reason."
Miyukiko looked at him with resentment, and in the dim light, she could vaguely see his sinister face. He seemed very serious at this moment. She said, "Perhaps I have no reason, but from the first time I saw you, I had a special feeling. I thought it was hatred, but later I realized it wasn't hatred. I also know that I once loved Yamamoto, and because you killed Yamamoto, I might hate you. But Yamamoto and I had no relationship, and he didn't love me. It was just wishful thinking on my part. I was wrong, terribly wrong. I thought I would hate you because of Yamamoto's death, but for a long time, I've thought about you. Your beastly qualities and your handsome, wicked face almost shattered my heart—without you, my heart... can hardly be whole again."
Xi Ping was silent. This sudden feeling was not something he had expected.
"My room is just ahead. Can you come in with me?"
She walked ahead, and Xi Ping followed behind. He didn't know why he was following her and then entering her boudoir. He thought, perhaps this was also an accident.
Even more unexpectedly, Miyukiko reached the bedside and began to undress. Her naked, beautiful body was quickly revealed in the light and came into his view…
“I only want you for one night, is that alright? I know you’re leaving tomorrow, and I, too, am going back to my homeland… Just one night, let me leave some memories.”
“Is one night enough?”
“Yes, enough. One night’s memories can last a lifetime. You’re an amazing man. I don’t think I’ll ever meet another man like you in my life.”
Xiping stared at her and said, “Listen carefully to what I’m about to say—I don’t want me in your memories.”
Miyukiko hysterically said, “Why? Do you think my body is dirty? I can tell you, although I once had a crush on Yamamoto, my body has never been touched by any man. I am still a pure virgin!”
A mocking smile appeared on Xiping’s lips. He said, “I can also tell you, I’m a very lecherous man. I like all kinds of women, but I don’t like Japanese women.”
Miyukiko looked at him sadly and murmured, “Why?”
“No reason, I just hate them.”
“No, you have to give me a reason!”
Xi Ping looked at her with pity and said, “I’m leaving. I have to go back to the woman I love. As for the rest, you can figure it out yourself… Oh, and by the way, don’t see me again.”
He walked out of Miyukiko’s room, leaving the naked Miyukiko alone in the interplay of cold wind and dim light.
When Xi Ping returned, Luo Meimei and Liang Liqiong were not there. The Emperor had arranged for Liang Liqiong to stay in another room. Tang Si said that Luo Meimei had gone to see her mother and that if he returned, he should also go to see her. He kissed Tang Si and then left.
Reaching Liang Liqiong’s door, he heard crying inside. He gently pushed the door open and, finding it unlocked, went inside.
The mother and daughter were embracing and weeping…
They must have been talking about Luo Nian! Xi Ping didn’t intend to disturb them and quietly slipped away.
Liang Liqiong, with her sharp eyes, said, "You're here?"
"Yes."
Luo Meimei turned her head and said, "Come here!"
Xi Ping walked over and stood in front of the bed, saying, "What do you want with me?"
"What do you plan to do to my mother?" Luo Meimei's words left Xi Ping speechless. Liang Liqiong's beautiful and mature face suddenly turned red, and she lowered her head.
Xi Ping said awkwardly, "This...this..."
Luo Meimei said, "I heard from my brother the Emperor that you and my mother were in the dungeon of the Great Earth Alliance...so he wants to give my mother to you, is that right?"
Xi Ping quickly explained, "Oh, Meimei, it's not like that, don't misunderstand. Your mother really needed someone to care for her then...I just showed a little too much concern, I'm her son-in-law, hehe." He thought to himself: That Emperor almost killed me, what a close call!
"You mean, you don't want my mother anymore?"
Xi Ping was in a dilemma. If he said no, it would be against his will. Liang Liqiong was the model for Luo Meimei, and she was no less beautiful than Luo Meimei. If he said yes, he might be scolded by Luo Meimei. If he said no, it would hurt Liang Liqiong's self-esteem. Although Liang Liqiong might not like him, no woman would feel comfortable if he directly rejected her.
"I... cough... this... that... cough cough..." That was all he could do. What else could he do?
Luo Meimei said, "Didn't you say you wanted Wan Miao and her apprentice? Didn't you say that Du Sisi and her daughter were carrying your child? Didn't you sleep in the same bed with the Empress, the Empress Dowager, and the Princess? Didn't you say that Yuan Zhen and Yuan Na were your lovers? Didn't you say that Leng Jingying seduced you into bed? Didn't you take Amiyi and her apprentice? Didn't you take You Zui and Shi Rouyun as your sisters-in-law? And Luo You'er, Meng Ji..."
"Are there... are there so many?" Xi Ping broke out in a cold sweat.
Luo Meimei scolded, "I haven't finished yet! Why are you so nervous? What haven't you done? I remember you once tried to harm my mother..."
Xi Ping denied it outright, "That didn't happen. How could I possibly harm my mother-in-law?"
He then wiped the cold sweat from his brow...
Liang Liqiong kept her head down. Luo Meimei continued, "My mother lost my father, and there's no one to take care of her now."
Xi Ping said, "As a son-in-law, of course I'll take care of my mother-in-law. You don't need to worry about that."
Luo Meimei glared at him and said, "You said in prison that my mother and I look alike, and that you'd take care of her from now on, is that right?"
"Let me think... I think I did say that, but wow, mother-in-law, how could you say something like that? I'm so embarrassed."
"I'm the one who's embarrassed, you bastard, you've done all sorts of despicable things."
Xi Ping laughed, "No, no, I think I'm doing a good deed. Aren't they all happy because of me? As long as everyone in this world is happy, that's all that matters. I never do anything despicable."
The mother and daughter were truly impressed by him. He actually managed to portray his immoral behavior as a good thing, and described himself as a savior-like good person. Perhaps only he could do that in the world.
"If I asked you to marry my mother, what would you do?"
Luo Meimei stared at Xiping, who raised his hand to touch her forehead, exclaiming, "Meimei, are you running a fever?"
"I don't have a fever, I'm perfectly lucid."
"Doesn't your mother object?"
"My mother said she'll listen to me in everything."
"I see! Let me think, is it right or wrong?"
"You lecher, what else do you need to think about? Does my mother marrying you make you lose face? Don't forget she's my mother, she's prettier than many of your women..."
Xiping said, "Pretty is a fact, but she's your mother. If I marry your mother too... won't people say anything? That would be very shameful."
Luo Meimei sneered, "Shameful? You've done this kind of thing more than once or twice, do you want to reconsider?"
Xiping quickly said, "Ahem, no need, I only need your mother's word, why isn't she saying anything?"
Luo Meimei nudged her mother, saying, "Mom, don't just keep your head down, say something!"
"I'll listen to Meimei." Liang Liqiong's face flushed red, but she still didn't dare to raise her head.
"Father-in-law, I'm sorry!" Xi Ping stared at the two women and said, "You two look so alike, I wonder if other parts are also similar? Hehe, let me check."
To the surprise of the two women, he suddenly pounced on the mother and daughters on the bed...

Chapter Three: Meeting in Longcheng

"The martial world is more chaotic than in any era before us!"
Lin Xiaotian sighed as he stood on Mingyue Peak. At this moment, the peak of Mingyue Peak was covered in snow, and winter shrouded the lonely summit. Meng Qing, Amiyi, and Luo You'er all looked at this majestic man. Although he had lost all his martial arts skills, his captivating charm remained.
"One month, just one short month..."
Lin Xiaotian was rescued by Meng Qing and Amiyi, while Luo You'er had arrived at Mingyue Peak two days ago. It had been a month since Meng Qing rescued Lin Xiaotian.
In just one month, the martial arts world underwent earth-shattering changes. Dugu Ming and Lei Long rescued Si Gou and others, then led 20,000 to 30,000 members of the Beggars' Sect to attack Dragon City; Ouyang Tingting led the Taiyin Sect to join forces with Lei Feng; the Wild Horse Clan and the White Sheep Clan's 30,000 to 40,000 troops crossed the desert; the Snake God Tribe, the Four Great Families... almost all the sects and tribes related to Xi Ping appeared in the martial arts world, simultaneously advancing on the Earth Alliance from different directions. In addition to their own strength and the martial arts forces that relied on them, the Earth Alliance was suddenly joined by government and imperial troops...
Lin Xiaotian said, "I don't know if this is right or wrong?"
Meng Qing sighed, "Perhaps there is no right or wrong. This situation, which resembles a war, is indeed rare in the martial arts world. But things have come to this point, and we can only wait for the outcome."
Lin Xiaotian said, "What can the outcome be? You've cried many times because of Xi Ping's death. Those girls must be even more heartbroken! Revenge? Yes, revenge. The martial arts world is a tangled web of gratitude and resentment."
"Our three generations have brought shocking bloodshed to the martial world, but was it our choice? My adoptive father was lonely, and so am I. We thought our children would no longer follow in our footsteps, would no longer become demons, but who knew they would die as murderers. We didn't care about these things, nor how many people we killed—if someone wanted to kill me, I would kill them! But is this kind of life truly happy? We are just ordinary people, only hoping to live ordinary days. These wishes remained unfulfilled until my adoptive father's death, and I haven't achieved them either… Love what you love, hate what you hate—that's what my adoptive father hoped for, but I was powerless to do it."
"No, you did it," Meng Qing said, tears welling in her eyes.
“Love, I dare not love. I’ve been away from you for over twenty years, afraid to come back to see you. I’ve let you down, and I’ve let down my godfather. Don’t you hate me at all?”
“I hate you, of course I hate you, but in my lifetime, being able to see you return makes it impossible for me to hate anymore. In my heart, my love for you is far greater than my hate.”
“And you?” Lin Xiaotian looked at Ami and Luo You’er.
The two women were silent for a moment. Lin Xiaotian said, “I know I’ve wronged you, but my heart only belongs to Qing’er. I understand your feelings for me, but I can’t accept them. I’m not like Xiping. Sometimes I doubt whether Xiping is my son. He’s nothing like me.”
“What? You doubt Xiping?” Meng Qing exclaimed.
Lin Xiaotian hurriedly explained, "Qing, his face looks more like yours. I think he resembles you more."
Meng Qing retorted, "Am I as fickle as him? I've only ever loved you in this life..."
Luo You'er suddenly said, "He doesn't resemble anyone else. He's just himself, the one and only Huang Xiping."
Amiyi said, "Xiaotian, actually, You'er and I don't hate you. Your life has been almost entirely forced. Fate brought us together, yet prevented us from ever truly connecting. Alas, it's all destiny that's hard to defy."
Tears streamed down Luo You'er's face. Amiyi said, "You'er, you're crying again?"
"I thought of Xiping... When he was alive, I didn't think of him like this. But after I made up my mind, he left, so suddenly, without even a final glance..."
Mentioning Xiping, Amiyi and Meng Qing also wept along with her. In the eyes of the world, everyone believed Xiping was dead. Perhaps only in Chunyan's heart was she certain that Xiping was not dead; only Chunyan forever believed that her son was an immortal warrior!
Lin Xiaotian sighed, "Because of his death, the martial world has become a slaughterhouse."
Amiyi said, "This can't be blamed on him. He was originally a man who didn't fight with the world. He didn't know his own background and had no grudges against anyone. It's just that some people insisted on making his life difficult. He loved to play, and if you have to say something bad about him, it's that he was too lecherous… Why did those people have to put him to death? Was it just because he was your descendant? Now that he's dead, his women and his brothers are still alive; they will surely avenge him! Xiaotian, as you said, you and your adoptive father were both lonely, but he wasn't. He had many women who loved him, and brothers who would fight to the death for him… Those who killed him…" They will also be punished. Even if it means losing countless lives, under the power of grief and anger, these are insignificant.”
Lin Xiaotian said, “My godfather and I are not attached to justice at all… Becoming demons, becoming murderers, is perhaps the destiny of our three generations! A difficult fate manifested in our three generations, so naturally, hahaha…”
A kind of sorrowful sadness echoed in the laughter…
Amiyi said, “We are all Xiping’s women, we are all carrying his children. We are just women, very attached to grudges. For him, we would not hesitate to wash the entire martial arts world in blood.”
Meng Qing sighed softly and said, “I want to ask you why you love him so much?”
“Because he is bad!” Luo You’er and Amiyi said in unison.
"Bad?"
"Yes, he's bad to our very core. I can't stop thinking about how bad he is. He's so bad, yet we can never forget him. Are we all abnormal?"
Meng Qing said, "Perhaps from another perspective, good women are always attracted to bad men."
She glanced at Lin Xiaotian intentionally or unintentionally, which he noticed. He said, "Luckily, I'm only bad to you!"
Meng Qing retorted, "You're so cheeky!"
Lin Xiaotian said, "Next year, will you call me Big Brother or Dad?" The
two girls blushed, even Meng Qing blushed. Lin Xiaotian said, "My son has left behind so many problems. If he doesn't come back to life, it seems no one will be able to solve them. Sigh, I feel he's not dead yet. He's just become the lost—nine suns!"
"Tomorrow, we'll leave, follow them, and avenge our husbands together," Ami said firmly.
Luo You'er suddenly moved between Lin Xiaotian and Meng Qing, who embraced him. He said softly, "You are his parents. How will he address you? You'er will address you the same way from now on. I'm sorry, Brother Lin, You'er has changed her mind, but You'er doesn't regret it, because You'er feels very happy, truly very happy. Even if I only had a little bit of him, it would be enough for You'er to be happy for a lifetime. I will always remember his words, You'er is his woman... Therefore, You'er is going to avenge him."
"Yes, go! Let blood settle the score..."
The martial world is named after blood.
Dugu Ming, Si Gou, and others led the Yuanyang Escort Agency, Wudou Sect, and Beggars' Sect to Dragon City. Lei Feng and her women led the Snake God Tribe and Taiyin Sect in a fierce battle. The four major families followed closely behind. Bai Zi led the Wild Horse Tribe and White Sheep Tribe armies across the desert towards Dragon City. Along the way, they encountered an ambush by the army sent by the Earth Alliance. However, this group of young men and women, driven by revenge, burned their grief and anger to the extreme for their friends, brothers, and lovers. They killed gods, demons, and monsters!
In this martial world, with their weapons and their furious, indifferent hearts, they charged towards the same goal in the same direction. This was an unimaginable force. Regardless of whether this force was righteous or evil, this surging power could almost destroy the entire martial world and destroy everything!
This outcome was beyond Luo Xiong's imagination. If he had foreseen it, he would never have provoked Huang Xiping, much less mistakenly killed him. He couldn't have predicted that Huang Xiping could draw out such a massive force. The current situation, the current standoff, has lost the meaning of a mere martial arts battle; this is a completely different kind of war. If Luo Xiong had obtained military assistance, the Earth Alliance would have been crushed by this force long ago.
A man who was originally indifferent to the martial arts world, merely a womanizer, has appeared in this world for less than a year, yet he has united so many forces. Regardless of his past as a rogue or a murderer, this force practically represents the entire martial arts world. The Earth Alliance's martial arts axis is already changing…
Perhaps this is no longer a typical martial arts feud, but should be categorized as war. However, this conflict, sparked by hatred, burned with resentment and anger. Even the imperial army could not stop the advance of these bandit groups. Adding to the chaos were 30,000 to 40,000 powerful alien troops crossing the desert. On the road to Dragon City, endless fighting and bloodshed raged, with ordinary people fleeing in terror… The road was
paved with blood and lives—this was the true path of the martial world!
Let the blood boil, let the flames of resentment burn fiercely…
Advance through corpses amidst carnage! No matter how many men or armies the Earth Alliance mobilized, they could not stop the vengeful army approaching Dragon City from all sides. Seeing the army reach Dragon City, Luo Xiong hurriedly recalled all his manpower and troops to prepare for a defensive battle. This was a strange outcome; even the imperial army could not stop them, leaving them with no choice but to fight a defensive battle advantageous to themselves. Luo Xiong intended to annihilate the forces attacking Dragon City in this battle…
And in Black Dragon Town, the closest town to Dragon City, the vengeful army continued to arrive and gather. The first to arrive were a force of over 10,000 women led by Lei Feng, Shui Jieqiu, Ouyang Tingting, Leng Rubing, and Si Mo. Next came an army of over 35,000 from the Wild Horse and White Sheep clans, led by Bai Zi and Yuan Na. Following them was a martial arts force of over 30,000 led by Lei Long, Dugu Ming, and Si Gou. Three days after these three groups gathered, the four major families, leading over 4,000 warriors and over 800 female soldiers led by Meng Xiang, Luo You'er, and Amiyi, arrived simultaneously
outside Dragon City… All the revenge armies had assembled, forming a rare convergence!
This revenge army, totaling 70,000 men, had marched to Dragon City. While smaller than the army controlled by the Earth Alliance, their strength and field combat capabilities far surpassed those of the Earth Alliance's regular army. Furthermore, within Dragon City, strategy was useless; battle lines could no longer be stretched, leaving only a direct confrontation. Luo Xiong knew he held an absolute advantage in terrain, but he couldn't help worrying about supplies. If the city was besieged, the more than 100,000 troops inside, along with the city's inhabitants, would soon run out of food.
Perhaps this wasn't a war of good, and martial artists, throughout history, had emphasized the opposition between good and evil. But fundamentally, the martial world had no clear distinction between good and evil, and this army, gathered for revenge, contained both good and evil elements, making it impossible to tell them apart. In this situation, distinguishing between good and evil was virtually impossible.
Dragon City was tightly besieged. Luo Xiong repeatedly sent troops out to break through and make contact with Dark Dragon, hoping to receive more aid, but each time they were repelled. Anyone leaving the city, regardless of whether they were members of the Great Earth Alliance or ordinary citizens, was detained. Some suspected of being members of the Great Earth Alliance were even killed. The four major families felt this was excessive, but Lei Feng and the other women insisted on their belief—everyone in Dragon City was an enemy, and everyone who left Dragon City deserved to die!
Women may be truly kind, but at times, they can be a thousand times more ruthless than men…
The siege and defense of the city lasted for nearly ten days with almost no result. The people of Dragon City lived in constant fear, struggling on the brink of death. They knew that anyone who tried to escape the city would be captured and killed. Therefore, they could only hide in Dragon City, hoping the battle would end quickly. They didn't care who won or lost, they just wanted a result.
Only an end could restore some peace to Dragon City… They also didn't want the Earth Alliance to win, because the martial artists and army led by the Earth Alliance, trapped in the city, were not only robbing them of food and money but also raping women indiscriminately. Even the officials of Dragon City were colluding with the Earth Alliance.
This situation was a tragedy that only occurred during times of war for the people of Dragon City—or perhaps this was an era of war originating in Dragon City!
As the sun set, the tense standoff remained unchanged, while final negotiations were taking place outside Dragon City—this was after the twelfth battle.
In the main camp, the key leaders of the revenge army were gathered—most importantly, Xi Ping's woman and his friends.
"Tomorrow, let's fight to the death! I will definitely cleave Luo Xiong and his son's heads in two!" Lei Feng roared.
Undoubtedly, Lei Feng now held the lead. Although the four great families of Wulin and Meng Xiang of Mingyue Peak were also present, this mission was to avenge Xi Ping, and therefore, his first wife should be in charge. And this first wife was none other than Lei Feng; even Meng Xiang had to listen to her.
Zhao Jieying said, "If we launch a direct assault, we might not win. Luo Xiong's forces outnumber ours by half. If it were a battle on the plains, we might have a chance of victory, but they are holding firm in Longcheng, and even if we launch a full-scale attack, we have no chance of winning. And what about the people in the city..."
Bai Lian interrupted, "Don't mention the people in the city to us. I, Bai Lian, only believe in the strong saving themselves. If Luo Xiong hadn't killed my husband, he wouldn't have brought this disaster upon them. They can only blame themselves for supporting the Earth Alliance and taking pride in it... Besides, what do they have to do with me, Bai Lian? My husband is dead, so I have to..." "Revenge? If you feel sorry for them, you'd better leave as soon as possible. Saying our husband's father killed your father… Hmph, even without you, I, Bai Lian, can avenge my husband! Eldest brother, second brother, are you ready?"
Bai Xiong and Bai Yin responded in unison, "Little sister, don't be afraid! We're all ready. This half-hearted fighting these past few days has been very unpleasant. If we're going to fight, let's have a decisive battle!"
Bai Zi said, "Revenge must be taken, blood must be shed, no matter whose blood… Holding out indefinitely isn't a solution. Although we can hold out until they run out of supplies, by then, it might be…" When they turn the tide, if they're on the verge of starvation, what do they have to fear? Therefore, I also think that launching a final assault before they reach their doom is advantageous for us. A person with a death wish is truly terrifying.”
Bai Lian smiled at Bai Zi and said, “Sister Zi, I misunderstood you before.”
Bai Zi smiled faintly and said, “What's there to misunderstand? Actually, I really did make mistakes before… but I don't remember what I did wrong. I've forgotten everything unrelated to Xi Ping; I only remember him. He's the only one I love, and the father of the child in my womb.” "I'm afraid that if he dies, I'll always belong to him alone, he'll be everything to me."
Du Qingfeng said, "Jieying's words are not without reason. If we attack head-on, we don't have a sure chance of winning. If we can break through the main gate quickly, we might be able to win. After all, not everyone can enter the city quickly with their lightness skills like us martial artists. And if martial artists try to leap into the city, they'll be hacked to death by the city's soldiers... Dafeng, how is the training of your five thousand archers progressing?"
Dafeng said, "Senior, I was just about to report. After a month of training, they are ready to join the battle."
Si Gou patted Da Feng on the shoulder and laughed, "As expected of our wise village chief of Huanshan Village, a formidable character indeed."
"Being a little more capable than you is better than you being fooled by an old man and locked up in a filthy little cage with your wife. If we hadn't rescued you, you'd probably still be there, pooping and peeing!"
Si Gou laughed and scolded, "Da Feng, we've been allies since childhood, how can you be so mean? Be careful I go back and lock you and your wife up like that too... Hehe, but honestly, it's really pathetic. I, Si Gou, have never been this stupid before. So after I got out, I locked that old man in an even smaller place, letting him poop and pee himself." "His excrement and urine stink to death, haha."
Lei Feng cursed, "Four Dogs, what's so funny? If you hadn't been so careless, Xi Ping wouldn't have gotten into trouble..."
Thinking of Xi Ping's death, Four Dogs' smile vanished, and he lowered his head, saying, "He originally wanted me to deliberately lead the Beggars' Sect away, and then suddenly return when the Earth Alliance was exposed... Alas, I was too trusting of that old man."
Dugu Ming said, "Actually, it's not entirely your fault. No one could have predicted that the Smiling Beggar would be the Earth Alliance's deputy sect leader, Xi Ying. Even Chief Feng didn't know, let alone you, you stupid dog."
"Dugu Ming, do you want to fight me one-on-one?"
Hua Xiaobo said, "Master Four Dogs, you are no match for Boss Dugu now. Boss Dugu is the ultimate successor of the Blood Demon. Your gun is no match for him."
"Which gun are you referring to? This one?" Four Dogs pointed to his crotch, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head. It turned out that the orchid on his back had hit his head.
Orchid said, "What time is it? You're still joking? She's heartbroken..."
Si Gou turned around and saw tears in Orchid's eyes... He suddenly felt guilty towards Xi Ping. If he hadn't listened to Xi Ping and hadn't acted out that play, with him and the Beggars' Clan in Dragon City, Xi Ping wouldn't have been so overwhelmed...
Xi Ping was always strong, always dealing with things alone—no matter how many people the enemy had. He suddenly remembered things from his childhood...
Yuan Na said, "Opening the city gates might be possible."
"How so?"
"My daughter is still in the city..."
Bai Lian said, "You mean Yuan Zhen and the others? I don't count on them at all... You saw it yourself, how many of our people did your daughter kill with Luo Xiong's army? Rely on her? Humph, she's completely infatuated with that Luo Tian guy."
Yuan Na said, "Impossible, Zhen'er only loves Xi Ping... Besides, what can Luo Tian give her? Apart from Xi Ping, no other man in this world can give her anything?"
Shui Jieqiu said, "She loves Xi Ping? If she loves Xi Ping, why did she stand idly by when Xi Ping was attacked by the Earth Alliance?"
Yuan Na said, "This..."
Ouyang Tingting said, "I only know that if she truly loved Xi Ping, she wouldn't be with the enemy who killed Xi Ping."
Yuan Na couldn't explain in the end, and could only sigh in her heart: Zhen'er, why are you like this? Didn't you come to the Central Plains because of Huang Xi Ping?
"Sometimes you might be with your enemy!" Shi Rouyun suddenly said.
The words spoken by this quiet girl shocked and puzzled everyone present. Some, however, thought again that perhaps she was referring to herself—her own sworn enemy!
Ouyang Tingting understood the unique wit of the silent Rouyun; when she spoke, it was always unsettling.
Xu Piaoran particularly disliked Shi Rouyun. Every time he saw her, he was reminded of his dead son. Although Shi Rouyun hadn't killed him, and he was now almost at peace with his son's death, he was still displeased with her words. He said, "What are you saying, you idiot woman? Who would be with their enemy?" Shi Rouyun
seemed afraid of Xu Piaoran, and shut up at his shout.
You Zui, unable to bear it any longer, said, "Xu Piaoran, why are you yelling at our Rouyun? Who offended you?"
"Who told her to talk so stupidly!" Xu Piaoran was actually a little afraid of You Zui, knowing he was no match for him.
Yun Xue said, "Master Xu, you'd better not target Rouyun in the future, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Among the crowd, apart from a few who knew Yun Xue was Shi Zhusheng, many didn't know this woman's identity. They only knew that she was associated with the Jade Serpent Sect and the Hell Gate, and that her status and martial arts were extremely high. Therefore, her words carried a lot of weight. What they couldn't understand most was why she was protecting Shi Rouyun so much.
Xu Piaoran was furious and opened his mouth to shout, "I—"
"Father, don't argue!" Xu Bailu had already come over and hugged the timid Shi Rouyun, saying, "Little Rouyun is very kind. She's the most pitiful. Please don't scold her. We all love her very much."
With his daughter saying this, Xu Piaoran had no choice. In fact, he knew in his heart that this silent little girl was pitiful and adorable, but he just didn't know where his anger came from, and then he regretted being too impulsive.
Feng Aiyu stood up, went over and took Shi Rouyun's hand, saying, "Rouyun, let's go out! We don't know martial arts, so we can't fight. I'll go out and teach you how to curse and argue."
"Aiyu, I'll go out with you too," Hua Xiaoman added.
Hua Lei also knew she couldn't be of much help, so she left the tent with her niece, Aiyu, and Rouyun.
The usually silent Leng Rubing asked, "Have you reached a conclusion?"
Everyone remained silent. She coldly continued, "Since none of you will speak, then I will. Sister Feng is right, Xi Ping's fate is unknown—don't ask me why. Until his body is found, I will never believe he is dead. But we must take revenge. The Earth Alliance has always wanted to harm our men. Even without Xi Ping's disappearance, we will not allow them to be so arrogant. If it weren't for Sister Feng and me at Changchun Hall, the Earth Alliance's attitude towards Xi Ping would have been intolerable. I've decided, as Sister Feng proposed, tomorrow, the final battle!"
"Tomorrow it is!" Mengxiang and Qianye Bei said in unison…

Chapter Four: Dragon City Night

. The night in Dragon City was still filled with brilliant starlight. Human calamities are smaller than the starlight itself in the vastness of space. Space, though it provides the venue for these calamities, feels no unease about them.
Time may reflect a little sorrow, but it is not something time itself can perceive.
Dragon City was filled with panic and unease, yet the night sky remained inexplicably silent.
Perhaps every night awaited the clamor of dawn…
And the people of Dragon City? What were they waiting for? They themselves didn't know; perhaps they were waiting for death.
What were Luo Xiong and his son waiting for? Waiting for regret… In truth, they were already regretting it. The current situation was not what they wanted, and it deviated unimaginably from their original plans.
They had originally intended to use Huang Xiping to lure out the Blood Demon, then have the entire martial world hunt down the Blood Demon father and son—this was originally a personal vendetta, and to some extent, it was beneficial to the Earth Alliance itself. Therefore, for both public and private reasons, they felt it was the right thing to do at the time.
However, Huang Xiping's death led to the outbreak of war, severely testing their original plans. Now trapped in Dragon City, unable to enter or leave, and with no news from Dark Dragon, they couldn't send anyone out to contact Dark Dragon—the revenge army outside seemed more ruthless than imagined, sparing no one.
Dark Dragon naturally had his own difficulties—he and Yang Yi had vanished without a trace. Although he wouldn't betray Luo Xiong, he knew that if the mission failed and he returned to the Earth Alliance, he would only face death. Even a small worm didn't want to die, let alone a grown man like himself. He was just impotent—damn, even impotent men have the right to live.
Luo Xiong naturally had no way of knowing the situation of Dark Dragon in the capital, but having lost contact for some time, he had a premonition that something was amiss. If Dark Dragon lost power in the capital, then besides facing the Green Forest Army seeking revenge for Huang Xiping, he would also have to deal with the impending arrival of the immensely powerful Imperial Army, and the loss of the Imperial Army he currently controlled…
At this moment, Luo Xiong and his son were in the council hall with high-ranking members of the Earth Alliance, unable to sleep even in the dead of night.
Luo Xiong had always wanted to dominate the martial arts world, and his son, Luo Tian, even aspired to become a wise ruler. However, they could hardly predict the future; given the current situation, even a thousand headaches wouldn't help.
"Alliance Leader, if this continues, we won't be able to hold out for long. Even if they don't attack, the people of Dragon City will rebel against us," said Vice Alliance Leader Xue Da. "We have no control over those armies, and the martial arts practitioners who were originally allied with us, not knowing whether they'll live or die tomorrow, have also started attacking the people of Dragon City—burning, looting, raping, doing all sorts of things..."
Bai Si said, "That's inevitable. Under these circumstances, this kind of thing is to be expected."
Ning Fei said, "We really shouldn't have dealt with Huang Xiping back then... Apart from being the son of the Blood Demon, he wasn't a threat to us otherwise. Alas."
Luo Tian said, "What's the use of talking about this now? Huang Xiping is already dead..."
“I think it’s possible he’s not dead,” Ning Fei said. “Judging from his appearance, he’s definitely not someone who died young.”
Lu Ye said, “How could he not be dead?”
Cang Ying said, “I also think it’s possible he’s not dead…”
Luo Huo also said, “I don’t know why, but from the first time I saw him at the Martial Arts Sect, I felt that he was a monster who would never die. Many times, I didn’t want to be his enemy. I mentioned him to the Alliance Leader back then, and almost none of you agreed with me. In my entire life, I’ve never felt my heart tremble when standing in front of someone, but at the same time, I feel sincere respect… He’s not someone who can be defined by martial arts. Like the situation we’re facing now, it’s no longer a matter for the martial arts world. I’m thinking, Huang Xiping’s martial arts skills may not be that great, but he is indeed exceptionally powerful!”
Luo Shui said, “You also agree with the guess that Huang Xiping is not dead?”
“Hmm.”
Luo Tu said, “I don’t agree with your statement. I think his martial arts are also very strong. I’ve always misjudged him. Regardless of the ‘Thunder Tribulation Divine Blade’ he inherited from Kuang Dao, just his fists that inexplicably make thunderous sounds are almost invincible in martial arts. I’ve never heard of such a fist technique before him.”
Luo Mu said, “That might be something he created himself.”
“His body is even harder than mine!” said Luo Jin, who possesses an indestructible body.
Xue Da concluded, "In short, Huang Xiping is a monster shrouded in countless mysteries."
Ruye said, "The most terrifying thing is that this guy has an extraordinary number of women, and his revenge army, composed of his women, has us completely trapped. Those pregnant women—if we win, we'll have our fill of them… Heh heh, those women, though heavily pregnant, are fucking gorgeous."
Perth cursed, "You vulgar bastard, thinking about that even on your deathbed?"
Ruye laughed, "Precisely because we know we're about to die, we're enjoying ourselves to the fullest. And you know what? These days, the respectable women of Dragon City… " "How many have I raped, haha!"
Luo Xiong said, "Let's not discuss these things anymore, let's think about how to defeat the enemy!"
Lu Ye said, "If we hold our ground and don't come out, they can't do anything to us. If they launch a strong attack, they will be the ones who lose. Then those beautiful women and those tall and strong female soldiers, and the Mingyue Peak..."
Xue Da shouted, "Shut up, you pig!"
Cang Ying said, "Speaking of those tall female soldiers, I think of the six women of Yuanzhen. They have something in common with the six women of Yuanzhen. I wonder if they come from the Wild Horse Clan of Yuanzhen?"
Bai Si said, "I've also been worried about... the six women of Yuanzhen. " "It's indeed inappropriate for women to be in our camp,"
Luye said. "Then let's capture them, rape them, and kill them!"
Luo Tian said, "Luye, if you dare say another word, I'll kill you first, you fool."
Ning Fei said, "Or they might be of the same race, but the six women of Yuanzhen have fought for us during this time, and they don't seem to have any disloyalty. The armies they lead are all fighting very hard... This is hard to explain. If they are of the same race, I can't understand why Yuanzhen would cruelly kill her own people in battle."
Luo Shui said, "Perhaps it's because Yuanzhen is a traitor to the Wild Horse Clan." "!"
Ning Fei said, "I think as long as they don't betray us and fight for us, they still have some use. From my observation, whenever those tall female soldiers encounter the army led by Yuan Zhen, they hide far away, seemingly unwilling to fight. This could be used to make Yuan Zhen the vanguard..."
Bai Si said, "I'm still worried, can Yuan Zhen be trusted?"
Luo Xiong said, "Tian'er, what do you think?"
Luo Tian said, "Yuan Zhen is probably infatuated with me, treating me as her man, so she's willing to risk her life for me."
Even now, Luo Tian was as arrogant as ever.
Lu Ye laughed, "Young Master is very strong in this regard."
Luo Tian smiled, not denying it, but he knew very well that he and Yuan Zhen were not like that at all.
Perth said, "Young Master, your reason—"
"Perth, do you doubt the Young Master's charm with women?"
"Luye, this isn't about charm. One wrong move, and we might be outmaneuvered by Yuan Zhen..."
Ning Fei said, "Kill them!"
"No, keep them alive! Let them fight again tomorrow. As long as they still fight for the Earth Alliance, let them fight like dogs. If they betray us on the battlefield, shoot them to death with arrows..." Luo Xiong said, "You must keep an eye on them at all times. Don't let them do anything under our noses. I don't trust them either, but at this time, we should use them if we can. Their leadership and combat abilities are quite good. We should only kill them when they are no longer useful to us. As long as they don't leave the Earth Alliance, they can't return to the other side's camp."
“Father, I don’t trust them either. Since that’s the case, let them fight tomorrow. When they are defeated, end their lives. These women are useless anyway.”
Luo Xiong sighed, “I hope the Dark Dragon’s reinforcements can arrive in time…”
This was his hope, and the hope of everyone in the Earth Alliance.
But the Dark Dragon could never bring that hope back to them.
“Princess, will you make a statement? Will you continue to fight for the Earth Alliance? I can’t go on anymore…” Yuan He said.
They still lived in the West Ling Courtyard. Luo Tian rarely entered this small courtyard anymore. Luo Tian was no longer very interested in the tall and strong bodies of Yuan He and the other two women, and the three women he was interested in, Yuan Zhen and Yuan Ling, could not make love to him. Many times, Yuan Yan and Yuan Ling didn’t like to pay attention to him, and Yuan Zhen seemed to only want to have spiritual communication with him. Sometimes Luo Tian believed that Yuan Zhen really loved him. With his arrogant personality, he believed that this was probably true.
That said, Luo Tian sometimes felt a sense of dissatisfaction when making love with the three women, including Yuan He. He always felt that their vaginas were too receptive, and he couldn't fully fill them—this left him somewhat unsatisfied. As a man, and a proud one at that, the inability to feel the woman's body stretched to its maximum extent upon penetration inevitably brought a sense of disappointment. Luo Tian was a very realistic man, but sometimes he also fantasized about tearing her vagina apart upon penetration…
But Luo Tian couldn't give them that feeling. The only one who could give them that feeling was the Pioneer who took their virginity, the only man their hearts could never forget.
Although Luo Tian knew Xi Ping was the Pioneer, he was unaware of the infatuation Yuan Zhen and the other women had for him. Lang Wuxin was well aware of the three women's fantasies about the pioneers, because he knew how to communicate with them. Luo Tian, however, wouldn't waste time on such things. He sought them out purely for their abnormally strong bodies, something he'd never experienced before; he simply enjoyed their novelty…
Yuan Dan said, “Princess, I don't understand either. You love Huang Xiping and know he's a pioneer, so why do you continue to stay in the Earth Alliance?”
“Back then, when Huang Xiaoyue revealed that Huang Xiping was a pioneer, we wanted to help, but why did you stop us, Princess?” Yuan Mang also asked疑惑地, “We're currently in the Earth Alliance, constantly under surveillance. This kind of life is unbearable.”
Yuan He said, “The clan leader is here too! Are we really going to be their enemy? Princess, do you really hate Huang Xiping that much?”
Yuan Zhen sighed, “Perhaps I hate him, but I love him even more.”
“Ah?”
"From the first time I saw this little man, to his sudden departure... I liked him very early on. Before the virginity-opening ceremony, I wanted to give myself to him. After the ceremony, I couldn't forget him. I thought he was dead, but I couldn't forget him. He came from the Central Plains, so I went there. I thought there might be many men like him there. Although I could no longer make love with men, I hoped to find his shadow and erase his place in my heart. Unfortunately, no one could erase the shadow he left in my heart..."
"You always asked me if I had any attachment to the pioneer? I think I did. After all, it was my first time. The pain and the irresistible pleasure were almost as much as my life. But it was a physical feeling... The women of the Wild Horse Clan have long pursued physical pleasure in relationships, but I am not like that. So I cultivated the 'Natural Yin Locking True Scripture.' Fundamentally, I betrayed the Wild Horse Clan."
“But now, Huang Xiping’s identity overlaps with that of the Pioneer, and my physical feelings and the love in my soul also overlap. I know I won’t forget him, but I also have hatred, hatred for why he abandoned me! Even if my mother made him leave, couldn’t he have seen me one last time?”
Yuan Yan said, “Maybe he had his own reasons…”
“No, he never truly cared about me.” Yuan Zhen denied.
Yuan Ling said, “Princess, it’s not like that. Huang Xiping cared about you… Do you remember what he once said?”
“What did he say? He talks too much…”
Yuan Yan blushed and said, “That night when he was teasing Yan Yan, I remember it very clearly. He said, ‘No matter who you choose as your last man, it’s just your choice. My choice is unchanging.’ Princess, he truly cared about you. Yan Yan believed him too.”
“But he really is dead.” Yuan Ling said, tears streaming down her face.
Yuan Yan said, "No, I believe he's still alive. For generations, our pioneers have been destined to die, but as the only living pioneer, he's no ordinary man. The fact that we haven't found his body proves he's not dead."
Yuan He said, "If he's not dead, would he still want us?"
Yuan Yan said, "How could you forget what he said? He said you could be his woman after you've had your fun." Yuan He said,
"Sigh, if only I hadn't been with Lang Wuxin in front of him..."
Yuan Yan said, "Don't worry, he should know that this is normal in the Wild Horse Clan." Yuan Dan said
, "But to be his woman, you can't maintain the Wild Horse Clan's traditions. He doesn't like that."
Yuan Yan laughed, "Then you just won't be with other men anymore, right?"
Yuan Mang said, "We haven't been with men for a long time. Ever since we found out the pioneer wasn't dead, we've started learning to be women of the Central Plains. We want to learn from you and be a woman of strong will." Yuan Yan blushed
and said, "I just don't like other men."
"If he can return to me alive, I will forgive him!" Yuan Zhen said softly. "I don't want anything, I just want to see him standing alive before me. The reason I stayed in the Earth Alliance wasn't without thought. I thought that if he were in trouble, I might be able to help him secretly... But unexpectedly, someone went to rescue him first, and then he shone brightly in the night sky, and I don't know if he's alive or dead. Now, let's just pretend he's dead! His women are all seeking revenge for him, including my mother, who even mobilized the entire clan's army, which shows how much my mother loved him. I think it's time. Although they won't completely trust us, we still have a chance."
Yuan Dan said, "Princess, are you saying you want to avenge Huang Xiping? Are you serious? But what should we do?"
Yuan Zhen said, "When they were defending the city and not coming out, I knew this day would come... I fought desperately for them, even killing my own clansmen." "We want them to give us a chance to stay in the city, and also to keep them from attacking us for the time being... I think that one day, when Mother and the others launch their final assault, I might still be of some use."
The clever Yuan Yan said, "Princess, you mean, when they launch their final assault, we'll act as inside agents and open the city gates?"
Yuan Zhen listened carefully to the sounds outside and said softly, "It's late, go to sleep! We still have to fight tomorrow. The women of the Wild Horse Clan are not so simple."

Chapter Five: The Decisive Battle of Dragon City

The horn of dawn finally sounded, and Dragon City was shaken...
Luo Xiong originally wanted to hold back in the battle, but in this battle, the enemy was going all out, seemingly determined to kill him on this day. He knew that the moment of the decisive battle had arrived, which was advantageous to him. If he defended the city and the enemy launched a strong attack, in this situation of balanced power, he had a great advantage in terms of terrain. He was fully confident of winning this battle of defense. As long as he won this battle, it would be the time for Luo Xiong to launch a counterattack.
However, at the very beginning, Luo Xiong discovered a situation that was extremely unfavorable to him. In previous battles, the enemy hadn't deployed any archers. But this time, four or five thousand archers were aimed at the city walls. These archers were likely trained by that mountain village hunter named Dafeng; their archery skills were exceptional. Luo Xiong couldn't imagine that this hunter from a mountain village could train such a terrifying group of archers in such a short time.
Perhaps in one-on-one combat, archers were nothing special, but in this kind of battle, they played a crucial role, able to shoot from afar…
Luo Xiong also deployed archers on the city walls, but his archers were no match for those trained by a mountain village hunter. Little did he know that the village chief of Huanshan Village was a descendant of a master archer!
Just as the enemy approached the city gates, Luo Xiong knew that the soldiers on the city walls alone could not stop their advance. He chose to send Yuan Zhen to lead the army into battle, because the enemy's charging force consisted of tall female soldiers. Luo Xiong knew that they would avoid or retreat upon encountering Yuan Zhen, so he chose to make her the vanguard, with Xue Da leading the rest of the troops to meet them...
However, this decision also determined his fate.
In his haste, he had no time to consider his decision...
Yuan Zhen had already taken the action he had always feared—the moment she rushed out of the city gates, she suddenly ordered a retreat, just as she had done when the Wild Horse Clan's army encountered her before. She retreated, retreated back into the city...
The soldiers she led did not belong to the Earth Alliance; they only obeyed their leader. Yuan Zhen's order, at that moment, was the truth, and the truth was to retreat hastily back into the city...
The city gates couldn't be closed properly. Just as the soldiers guarding the gates were about to close them, Yuan Zhen and the six women began to attack them.
At the same time, the Wild Horse Clan's army broke down the gates. Yuan Na shouted, "Zhen'er, I knew you wouldn't let your mother down! Let's fight together! For our great lover!"
The soldiers knew their general had betrayed them, but it was too late…
"Mother, I've worried you these past few days. Actually, I've been waiting for the day you launch your final attack. I've been waiting for this opportunity all along… Mother, they killed Xi Ping! I hate them to the core! I want to be a needle in their stomach, piercing their hearts at the most crucial moment…"
"Just for your words defending Xi Ping, I allow you to join our ranks!" A strong female knight shouted as she brushed past Yuan Zhen.
Yuan Zhen asked, "Mother, who is she?"
Yuan Na said, "She's Xi Ping's first wife, named Lei Feng. All of Xi Ping's women obey her."
Yuan Zhen exclaimed in surprise, "How many women does that guy have that I haven't seen?"
“Many… they all firmly believe that Xiping is not dead. Once we kill this little leader of the Central Plains, we'll all get to know each other. I've only known them for a short time. Actually, I'm not his woman, just his lover, his eternal lover!” Yuan Na smiled calmly at Yuan Zhen and said, “You are his woman, therefore you must fight for him! I'm glad to see you return to our camp. Let's fight together for one man!”
Yuan Zhen said, “When I came to the Central Plains, I originally wanted to forget him, but to my surprise, he is still alive. Moreover, as a pioneer, he is my first and only man. I can't forget him, nor can I truly hate him. I can only choose to remember him! Many times, he is a very bad man. Almost any man in the world is better than him. But perhaps it is precisely his extreme wickedness that, like a sharp dagger, pierces the hearts of many women, causing them a certain spiritual pain. When they try to pull it out, they bleed to death…”
“Therefore, when he pierced my heart, I was destined to never remove everything he left me with, even the hurt, it was still so real! Mother, I lost him on the wild grasslands, and I came to the Central Plains, perhaps to return to his embrace—the embrace of a small man is enough to hold your daughter’s body and soul.”
“Let us fight! I have endured for so long for this final battle!” Yuan Zhen suddenly turned his horse around and charged into the city…
Yuan Na smiled, raised her saber high, and said, “My good daughter, I will fight alongside you!”
The city falls like a dam breaks, the army collapses like a mountain, the meaning of this sentence was very clear to Luo Xiong at this moment. He hadn't expected the betrayal to come so soon. Perhaps it wasn't betrayal at all, but a return—a return to their original camp. He just hadn't anticipated it would happen so quickly…
With the city undefended and the soldiers on the walls under the control of archers led by Da Feng, Luo Xiong lost his advantage in terrain. His righteous martial arts forces and large numbers of orthodox troops were thrown into disarray, clearly no match for the revenge army. This fighting force, composed of fierce foreign troops and powerful martial arts factions, possessed formidable melee combat prowess. Without the advantage of terrain, how could Luo Xiong withstand their onslaught?
With morale plummeting, he could only retreat step by step…
The entire Dragon City was engulfed in war. Civilians fled, hid, were mistakenly killed, trampled by horses… countless dead and wounded!
Perhaps the fate of the weak is either escape or death.
Often, many people sympathize with the weak, yet often, many fail to consider their plight. In the battles of the strong, the weak are merely tragic sacrifices.
The war raged on in Dragon City, and the soldiers defending the city never understood why they had come to Dragon City, obeyed the orders of the Earth Alliance, and waged such a large-scale battle on this land. They didn't understand, yet they obeyed orders...
They wanted to win, though without a reason, but war itself has no reason; they existed for war, and therefore would perish for war.
The revenge army, led by Lei Feng, ignited their fighting spirit with the flames of vengeance, stormed into Dragon City with a death-defying resolve, their goal being to eradicate the Earth Alliance from the land.
What were the forces that protected and destroyed the Earth Alliance ultimately destroying?
Perhaps life itself, countless lives.
This war raged from dawn till dusk, and from dusk till sunrise, finally drawing to a close by noon the following day. Blood stained every corner of Dragon City; not only people, but countless animals were slaughtered, the casualties incalculable.
Lei Feng and his group finally reached the gates of the Earth Alliance, at which point the battle across the city gradually drew to a close…
The battle itself was about to revert to a feud between martial artists, specifically a struggle between the alliance of the Four Great Families, Martial Arts Sect, Yuanyang Escort Agency, Taiyin Sect, Jade Serpent Sect, and Bright Moon Peak, and the Earth Alliance and the so-called righteous martial arts world led by the Earth Alliance. However, even so, the Earth Alliance seemed more difficult to attack than the entire Dragon City. In preparation for this desperate battle, the Earth Alliance had preserved all its original strength. The troops deployed during the defense were all from the Emperor's personal army, thus the Earth Alliance and its allies were not weakened.
Lei Feng's side, while successfully capturing the city and inflicting heavy losses on Dragon City, suffered heavy casualties and their forces were scattered throughout the city, constantly clashing with the Earth Alliance's legitimate army. Driven by revenge, Lei Feng and his group allowed the scattered remnants of both sides to fight freely, leading only their original sect members to attack the Earth Alliance, determined to fight them to the death.
Thus, following the war, a bloody battle between martial arts practitioners began...
This battle dragged on until dusk, until the sun sank below the earth and the sky was ablaze with crimson light. Darkness gradually descended upon the Earth Alliance, and even as darkness was about to engulf them, blood continued to flow, still shimmering a chilling dark purple...
In the Earth Alliance's council hall, all the high-ranking members of the alliance had gathered, while outside, the sounds of battle echoed...
"Alliance Leader, it seems this is a do-or-die battle for us. As long as we can eliminate the four major families and Huang Xiping's women, we will have nothing to fear."
Luo Xiong nodded upon hearing Xue Da's words, saying, "The only option now is to fight to the death."
Luo Tian said, "They have made us pay a heavy price. I will capture them alive and then gang rape them one by one until they die..."
His eyes flashed with an unprecedented cruelty. Luo Xiong looked at his son, speechless.
Luye said, "The young leader is right, these women should be gang-raped to death."
Cangying said, "If Xianyuan Valley had helped in this battle, the situation would have been different. But who could have predicted that Xianyuan Valley would not only not help, but would instead have their daughter lead the Xianyuan Valley and the Snake God Tribe's army to fight against us? Alas!"
Luo Xiong's eyes revealed a trace of sorrow. One of his two sisters betrayed him and became his enemy, while the other ignored him. If Luo Jia and Shui Tianchang could have led Xianyuan Valley to help him, he would never have ended up like this. However, he could never have predicted that Luo You'er's love was not for Lin Xiaotian, but for Huang Xiping—or should he be called Lin Xiping, but he had become accustomed to the name Huang Xiping—and that Huang Xiping had actually freed Shui Jieqiu from her Snow Whale bondage, making Shui Jieqiu love him as deeply as the sea. Furthermore, the only remaining princess of the Snake God Tribe, Si Mo, was also Huang Xiping's woman. This caused him to lose both Xianyuan Valley and the Snake God Tribe.
Now that things have come to this, he thought and thought, and he felt that he was not defeated by Lin Xiaotian, nor by Huang Xiping, nor by the four great families, and of course even the emperor could not defeat him; the one who truly defeated him was Huang Xiping's women, these pregnant, usually quiet little women, no one could have imagined that they could unleash such great power.
When they calculated Huang Xiping's strength, why did they forget to factor in the power these women could wield?
Perhaps not. They did calculate it, but to their surprise, they couldn't account for the Wild Horse Clan, the White Sheep Clan, and the Snake God Tribe. They hadn't considered this aspect because these three tribes weren't martial artists, and the Snake God Tribe originally belonged to Immortal Valley, which had a deep connection to him…
Furthermore, the Beggar Clan's defeat was something he couldn't have foreseen. Why didn't that old bastard Xi Ying kill Si Gou and Feng Zilai? He couldn't understand. But Xi Ying didn't regret it. If he had killed Si Gou and the others, he would have truly regretted it! Because he didn't kill Si Gou, when Dugu Ming wanted to kill him, Si Gou and Feng Zilai stopped him, only locking him up without taking any revenge on his family. Si Gou even said he'd let him smell his own excrement until he'd reflected on his actions, then release him... He was grateful; he was so old, he really had nothing more to ask for. As long as his family was safe, he would be content. What did it matter if he smelled his own excrement?
Their entire plan was almost entirely ruined by Huang Xiping's women. They hated these women to the core—women, at certain times, are indeed the most hateful.
Perth said, "Yuan Zhen and the others...it was a miscalculation on our part. We didn't expect them to..."
Luo Tian said, "Don't mention it. It's too late for regrets now. I wish I had..."
He suddenly realized he was also saying things he regretted, and immediately shut his mouth.
Luo Xiong said, "It's not over yet, the outcome is still uncertain."
Perth said, "I also think we might still have a chance to turn the tide. Those women are eager for revenge, they stormed in without any organized forces, and they haven't eaten or drunk for a long time, so their fighting strength must be weak. I think now is the best time for us to attack. As long as we defeat them, we will be the winners."
Ning Fei said, "That's right, we must fight this battle. We can't wait for Dark Dragon's aid any longer."
Ruye said, "What are Dark Dragon, that impotent man, and Yang Yi, that bastard, up to? Have they forgotten about us just because one is the emperor and the other the empress? One day, we'll tear them to pieces!"
Perth said, "Perhaps they have other reasons..."
"What reasons could they have?" Ruye retorted.
Luo Xiong frowned and said, "Never mind them. Distant water can't quench a nearby fire. The fire is already burning our eyebrows; let's focus on putting out the fire first. Alright! Prepare to leave; there's no turning back."
Lu Ye shouted, "I will definitely kill all those women, kill them… then rape them…"
"Luo Xiong, come out and face your death!" The enraged Lei Feng roared. At this moment, she gradually stormed into the council hall of the Earth Alliance—the Voice of the Earth. Luo Xiong led a group out of the Voice of the Earth. The disciples of the Earth Alliance blocked the way, while those who had attacked fought fiercely with the surrounding Earth Alliance disciples.
Lei Feng and the others saw Luo Xiong and his son. Lei Feng said, "You old man, are you Luo Xiong?"
Luo Xiong still smiled and said, "That's right, I am the person you're looking for."
Si Gou said, "Luo Xiong, I never thought you'd have such a day, did I? I will definitely get justice for locking me up in the Beggars' Sect."
Lu Ye said, "Didn't you break ties with Huang Xiping because you were cuckolded?"
"How could I possibly break ties with Xiping over a woman from another tribe? Besides, we, Si Gou, didn't even get cuckolded. Although Dani is beautiful, we, Si Gou, don't consider her our woman! From the very beginning, Dani's heart wasn't with me. When Dani first came to me, although she gave me her virginity, her heart was with Luo Tian. Later, Dani transferred her affections to Xiping. In short, she never had me, Si Gou, in her heart. However, that Luo Tian guy lost everything! In the end, he got nothing... We two brothers, one got her virginity, and the other got her heart, which is better than that Luo Tian guy! If you insist on saying that the one who cuckolded me was Luo Tian, why didn't I go to Luo Tian, but to Xiping? Let me tell you! Dani only went to Xiping twice, and danced a striptease in front of Xiping twice. I know everything. Don't think I'm stupid enough to let you play with me!"
Lu Ye said, "Was that an act?"
"Our acting skills have always been very high."
"What a pity, you still fell for our trap, and Huang Xiping's life is in danger!" Ning Fei said smugly.
Si Gou and the others' faces darkened, and those fighting intensified their battle. Si Gou said, "Xiping and I grew up together, and I never thought he would die younger than me. Besides, he said his life was tougher than anyone else's! Da Feng, tell us about it." Da Feng
said, "There's a legend in Huanshan Village about Xiping. You should know that someone who can knock down a tiger with one punch also has the survival instincts of a wild beast. Before I defeat you, as the village chief, I assert that I, as a villager, am still alive."
"Haha..." The people from the Earth Alliance burst into laughter.
Luo Tu said, "Village chief? Even the village chief has come out? That's terrifying! You country bumpkins, don't be too smug. Tonight, you may have made it to the Great Earth Alliance, but you'll never leave."
Hua Xiaobo said, "Look at this guy who talks big. He always boasts about how powerful his fists are, but he doesn't know he was sent flying by his brother-in-law's punch. That's truly terrifying."
Luo Tu's face darkened, and he roared, "Hua Xiaobo, dare to fight one-on-one?"
Hua Xiaobo said, "So naive. You're about to die, who would fight a dead man?"
Normally, Luo Tu would have charged over long ago, but now the two sides were facing off, and the enemy had countless experts. Although Hua Xiaobo's kung fu was inferior, he still didn't dare to charge over when he was impulsive—saying he wasn't afraid of death was nonsense!
Luo Tu could only say, "You're a coward!"
"You're the seed I shot out, you beast!" Hua Xiaobo retorted.
Dugu Ming said, "Xiao Bo, this isn't the time for empty talk... Luo Tu, I challenge you to a one-on-one fight. If you have the guts, come out and I'll kick your head off!"
Luo Tu glanced at the bloodthirsty Dugu Ming. He knew Dugu Ming was the Blood Demon's personal disciple, and even if Luo Tian wanted to kill him, it would take a great deal of effort. Luo Tu was no match for Dugu Ming. Therefore, he imitated Hua Xiaobo and said, "Who's going to fight you, you madman?"
Hua Xiaobo said, "Hey, Luo Tu, where's Luo Ye? Oh, I forgot, Luo Ye probably dumped you a long time ago. To be honest, you're terribly bad."
Luo Tu was speechless.
Du Qingfeng suddenly said, "Luo Xiong, I want to ask you something."
Luo Xiong calmly said, "Ask away! At this point, it's either you or me. I know the answer, and I'll answer you."
Du Qingfeng said, "Who killed our fathers?"
Everyone was surprised that Du Qingfeng would ask this question. Zhao Jieying and Xu Piaoran were also surprised.
Du Qingfeng continued, “When we were chasing the Blood Demon, we were too impulsive and didn’t consider many things. But later, as we thought about it, the Blood Demon wasn’t someone who acted recklessly. However, we witnessed the Blood Demon kill our father… It’s strange, our father wasn’t weak, yet when fighting the Blood Demon, he always had his head crushed by the Blood Demon’s ‘Blood Fiend Claw’ the instant we arrived. Why did the Blood Demon want us to see him kill our father? If it was an assassination, there’s no reason he would want us to see it. But at that time, the Blood Demon preferred to be seen by us and then run away, which is very unlike his personality… Until a month ago, after more than twenty years, the Blood Demon still denied it, and Meng Qing proved that the Blood Demon was on Bright Moon Peak at the time and could not possibly have killed our fathers. And along the way, Ami and Luo You’er…”
“No need to say more. Since you already know, why say more?” Luo Xiong said.
It turned out that after Ami and Luo Xiong reunited, Ami told them about Luo Xiong disguising himself as the Blood Demon and killing the three heads of the four major families. Luo Xiong was familiar with the martial arts of many families. When he assassinated the three heads of the families, he first used a drug to make them lose 70% of their power. Then, before killing each head of the family, he deliberately made a noise. When the people of the four families arrived, he killed them in front of them with a martial art that looked like the Blood Demon Claw, thus making the people of the four families think that it was the Blood Demon who did it.
Zhao Jieying and Xu Piaoran said in unison, "So that means you admit it?"
Luo Xiong said, "That's right, if you want revenge, then bring it on. Since twenty years ago, I've been planning to dominate the martial arts world. I won't let anyone who might hinder my plan go unpunished. If the four great families fight the Blood Demon, I can not only use him to kill the Blood Demon I hate most, but also weaken the strength of your four great families. Facts have proven that my plan was correct."
Du Qingfeng said, "Luo Xiong, you still have some guts."
Hua Xiaobo said, "When you're about to die, how can you not have guts?"
Xu Piaoran said, "So it was all your doing. Huang Yang and Hua Chukai weren't wrong to blame you. It was you who made me blame them wrongly. I'm finally at peace now. Not long ago, I even felt sorry for my ancestors because my daughter married the son of my enemy..."
Xu Bailu said, "Father, what are you joking about now?"
"I feel happy. After being deceived for over twenty years, I've finally recognized my true enemy. I can die in peace
now," Zhao Jieying said. "Brother Xu is right. We've always wronged the Blood Demon. Although he caused us heavy losses, we ruined his life. Thinking about it, I suddenly feel sorry for him. This reminds me of the Blood Fiend Sect itself. This sect's appearance in the martial world is almost synonymous with tragedy. How could a sect filled with blood and ruthlessness deny the mistakes it made? Perhaps the demon itself is more upright than justice."
He swung his sword, slicing away three disciples of the Earth Alliance beside him, and continued, "Luo Xiong, you've thought about dominating the martial world, but have you considered that the Earth Alliance might disappear from the martial world? If I remember correctly, your ancestors came from India. There's no place for you in the Central Plains anymore!"
"You seem to enjoy bringing up old grievances?" Luo Tian sneered.
Zhao Jieying said, "Old grudges and new hatreds, let's settle them all today."
"Since that's the case, we don't need to say anything more,"
Leng Rubing said coldly. "I've never liked to talk much. Now that you've all finished, let's see how it goes when the blood is cold. Sister Feng, let's begin! There's no language on the battlefield; they've all talked too much!"
Lei Feng shouted, "Luo Xiong, prepare to die!"
With that, she charged forward, followed by the others, while the Earth Alliance began their final struggle and counterattack…
