Ah Dai was taken aback and asked, "Brother, are you suggesting that the troops from Dark City might interfere? Could they be protecting these Dark Forces?"
Yan Shi smiled, patting Ah Dai’s shoulder, and explained, "Silly brother, don’t you understand yet? Without the support of official forces, how could this underground night club operate on such a large scale? Didn’t Uncle Vatana tell you that a good portion of their inco has to be handed over to the City Lord of Dark City? Although we have just entered the territory of the Empire of Sunset City, I already understand why Moon Scar and the others decided to withdraw. The Dark Forces hiding in the shadows are indeed frightful! Thankfully, we spent half a year cultivating in the Tian Gang Sword Sect. Otherwise, our situation would be even more dangerous."
Hearing Yan Shi’s explanation, Ah Dai couldn’t help but think of the towering figure of the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang. He silently prayed, Master, you must wait for Ah Dai in that world! One day, Ah Dai will co to find you.
Yan Li looked perplexed and asked, "Brother, I don’t feel anything wrong. Isn’t everything good here?"
Yan Shi turned to Yan Li, a sharp light in his eyes. He said sternly, "Ah Li, I am officially warning you now, you must obey my orders. If anything goes wrong with you, I will not let you off easily." His voice softened as he continued, "I know, the life of our Pu Yan clan is monotonous. Everything here is very tempting. But rember, you are a warrior of the Pu Yan clan. We bear the responsibility of the Pu Yan clan’s heritage and rebirth. Rember the Tilu warriors, right? If it weren’t for their sacrifices made willingly with their souls, perhaps we wouldn’t even exist today. If you abandon your clan’s hopes for temporary pleasures, I will be the first to deal with you." Yan Shi wasn’t joking, his tone freezing along with a surging murderous aura around him. Yan Li was taken aback, recalling his earlier actions, he couldn’t help asking himself, what happened? Was I that lustful person? Yes! I am a warrior of the Pu Yan clan. The Clan Leader, Prophet and our people have entrusted so many expectations onto us! Why did I allow my will to waver? Cold sweat trickling down, Yan Li was slightly stunned, his complexion becoming extrely pale.
Ah Dai grabbed Yan Shi’s arm, whispering softly, "Brother, never mind, Yan Li didn’t do it on purpose. He won’t do it again."
Yan Shi sighed, "Actually, I’m not blaming Ah Li. The temptation here is strong. Any normal person would be attracted. Among the three of us, you have the strongest resistance to temptation, while with Ah Li’s simple mindset, it’s easy for him to lose himself in the face of temptation. As his older brother, how can I watch him fall into oblivion?"
Ah Dai was startled, feeling ashad. "I have the strongest resistance to temptation? No, no, Brother Yan Shi, actually I also..." Rembering the attractive figure of Ah Bing earlier, Ah Dai couldn’t help but lower his head, "Actually, my willpower isn’t strong enough. How can I compare with you, Brother?"
Yan Shi shook his head and said, "No, your willpower is much stronger than mine. If I am not affected, it’s because my heart is dead. It died with Yun Er. Unless Yun Er cos back to life, my heart will never awaken again. Although there are many beautiful won here, and many of them are even more beautiful than Yun Er, in my eyes, these won have lost their souls and beco insipid. Their bodies have turned repulsive in the absence of their souls. How can they attract , a dead man? If Yun Er were still alive and I faced such a large temptation for the first ti, perhaps my resilience wouldn’t even match Yan Li’s." Yan Shi sat down on a nearby sofa, his face showing a desolate expression.
Reflecting on Yan Shi’s words, Ah Dai nodded slightly. That’s right! Even if they were beautiful, they would beco ugly if they lost their souls. The reason why he liked Yue Yue wasn’t just because of her stunning beauty, but more so because of her personality. What about Miss Ah Bing? Had her soul been lost too? So why were her eyes sotis filled with such sadness?
Suddenly, Yan Li stood up, a determined look in his eyes. He stared hard at Yan Shi, a clear shining light in his eyes. Yan Shi’s words had completely cleared the confusion in his mind and awakened him. With determination, he walked up to Yan Shi, knelt down and said, "What are you doing?"
Yan Li solemnly said, "Brother, I understand my mistake. I just want to make one thing clear. I, Yan Li, will always be a warrior of the Pu Yan tribe and will never change for anything."
Yan Shi gave a gratified laughter and helped Yan Li up, smiling, "That’s my good brother. From now on, I want to see your actions. Let’s rest for a while. There’s still work to be done tonight. We need to be in the best condition."
Ah Dai and Yan Li nodded together. The three of them each found a comfortable spot, settling into a ditative position with three different moods.
Unaware of how much ti had passed, the sound of knocking suddenly rang out. Yan Shi stood up, glanced at Ah Dai and Yan Li who were still ditating and walked toward the door. "Who is it?" He asked.
