581: 294: Turn the tide!_2 581: 294: Turn the tide!_2 At that mont, High Priest Yun Luo sighed and said, “But now, after all, you are married, and I have beco the Grand Priest.”
Princess Ji Hui cupped Yun Luo’s face and asked, “Luo, I’m facing a matter of life and death.
Will you help or not?”
High Priest Yun Luo said, “Our Dragon Temple does not interfere with secular power.”
Ji Hui said, “Then I’ll reveal our affair.”
Upon hearing this, Yun Luo’s complexion changed as he said, “But, but just now it was clearly you who rushed at , I couldn’t stop you…”
“Then why did you respond?” Princess Ji Hui said.
Suddenly, High Priest Yun Luo blushed, his face alternating between shades of pale and flushed.
Princess Ji Hui said, “Luo, your background isn’t good, your connections aren’t strong.
You weren’t even supposed to climb to the position of a priest in this lifeti, so why did you beco the Grand Priest?
It’s because more than twenty years ago, you were secretly in love with , you adored .”
High Priest Yun Luo’s eyes narrowed.
Princess Ji Hui said, “My imperial brother wanted to provide with a powerful ally, so he kept elevating your status until you beca the Grand Priest of the Night Orchid Duchy before the age of fifty.
You are aware of this, aren’t you?”
A tremor went through High Priest Yun Luo’s heart; of course, he knew.
Ji Hui said, “Behind stands the Fla Emperor, and purely in terms of the Dragon Temple, my niece, Princess Ji Xiuning, will beco the Sky Priestess in the future.
You know what to do without teaching you, right?”
High Priest Yun Luo remained silent.
Ji Hui said, “All these years, I never demanded anything from you, because the ti wasn’t right, but now the ti has co.”
High Priest Yun Luo closed his eyes, caught in a difficult struggle.
Ji Hui said, “You don’t have to do anything else, just co forward and announce that the death of Grand Duke Lanshi was a divine warning, struck by celestial lightning.”
After a few long minutes, High Priest Yun Luo opened his eyes and nodded, “Alright.”
…
The death of Grand Duke Lanshi swept through the Night Orchid Duchy like a tsunami.
All over Landu, hearts were in turmoil.
There were countless speculations about the death of Grand Duke Lanshi.
Subsequently, the Grand Priest of the Dragon Temple, Yun Luo, publicly announced that there were no assassins involved in the death of Grand Duke Lanshi; it was a divine warning, he was struck by celestial lightning.
Imdiately after, Snow Marquis Lan Ye and Princess Ji Hui took hold of the only 20,000 troops at their disposal and declared martial law throughout Landu.
All the civil officials ca out in droves.
Princess Ji Hui made frequent visits to the residences of high-ranking military officers in charge of Landu.
If she was denied entry, she would force her way in.
If soone could be intimidated or tempted, she would do so.
For those who could not be swayed, she stripped off their clothes, pushed them down, and mounted them herself.
This woman of noble stature, with a full figure and a seductive face, was willing to repeatedly sell her body for the sake of her son.
In just one day’s ti.
There was only one voice left among the upper echelons of Landu, proclaiming that the death of Grand Duke Lanshi was a divine warning, he was struck by celestial lightning.
Crown Prince Lan Tu, leading an army of 300,000, provoked the heavenly dragons by mobilizing his forces on the 3,000th anniversary of the Dragon Emperor, during the sacred Dragon Month.
And Grand Duke Lanshi died in his son’s stead!
That very night, countless civil officials submitted petitions, declaring that a nation cannot be without a monarch for a day, and since Crown Prince Lan Tu had already offended the celestial dragons, they requested that Snow Marquis Lan Ye imdiately ascend to the throne.
As for Grand Duke Lanshi’s freshly sewn but still ravaged body, it was completely ignored.
…
After the midday sands in the hourglass had run out and no explosion had sounded, Suo Lun beca sowhat nervous.
But three minutes later, the sound of an explosion erupted, reaching Suo Lun’s ears seconds afterward.
With the explosion at that precise mont, Grand Duke Lanshi was certain to be dead.
Suo Lun said to Princess Zhi Yan, “Let’s go, if we don’t leave now, we won’t be able to.”
Then, the two of them imdiately left Landu.
This ti, their ride was a Lion-Tiger Beast, not Suo Lun’s, but one prepared by Zhi Yan.
The two rode together, and moreover, Suo Lun was lying across Zhi Yan’s thighs.
“Is this okay?” Suo Lun asked.
“If you don’t want the wounds on your buttocks and legs to split open, this is the only way,” Princess Zhi Yan said.
Thus, Suo Lun lay comfortably on her plump, soft, slick, and fragrant thighs.
“How long had you been planning Grand Duke Lanshi’s assassination?” Princess Zhi Yan asked.
Suo Lun said, “The block of gunpowder was prepared two months ago.
And the expert who infiltrated Landu arrived three months ago, around the sa ti he entered Rouran.”
Zhi Yan glanced at Suo Lun, who was awkwardly sprawled across her legs.
That is to say, Suo Lun had already planned to assassinate the Grand Duke Lanshi before he even entered Rou Ran City.
That is to say, before Ashi Luo was annihilated, he had already anticipated that the Night Orchid Duchy would invade our country, so he had long since planned how to save Rouran.
This was not a matter of thinking three steps ahead for every move made, but of calculating several steps ahead before even making a move.
“Your intelligence is truly breathtaking…” declared Princess Zhi Yan.
“I thought you were going to say ‘frightening,'” Suo Lun responded.
“You’re too paranoid and sentintal, so there’s no need to be afraid,” Zhi Yan said.
Suo Lun sighed, “Actually, Zhi Li’s reaction this ti has disappointed .
I originally thought he was a person of great talent and vision.”
This ti the Ashi Liren sought aid from Zhi Li—if he had made a resolute decision and imdiately sent troops to their rescue.
Then there would be no need for Suo Lun’s involvent at all, and the Ashi Liren would never stand by Zhi Yan’s side again.
However, Zhi Li asured others by his own yardstick and believed that Suo Lun and the Ashi Liren must have developed an absolutely treacherous liaison.
And more importantly, Rou Ran City is still a vassal of the Rage Wave Kingdom.
With the Night Orchid Duchy invading the country, as a lord, he should have assud his duty, resisting the foreign enemy and defending the territory.
Yet, because of infighting, Zhi Li stood by and watched thousands of miles of Rou Ran Province’s land fall into enemy hands.
Is this what they an by ‘secure one’s own country before repelling foreign aggressors’?
Or ‘rather grant land to allies than to dostic slaves’?
“If he weren’t such a person, he wouldn’t have risen to such power,” Zhi Yan said.
Others might not understand Zhi Yan’s words, but Suo Lun understood them perfectly.
Zhi Li rose to power by leveraging support; he first gained massive backing from the Divine Dragon Temple and Yin Zhou, and then from the various lords and nobles.
To put it plainly, he is the spokesperson for the interests of the Divine Dragon Temple, Yin Zhou, the nobility, and the lords.
Once he becos King, the downfall of the Rage Wave Kingdom is but a matter of ti, and total subjugation to the Divine Dragon Temple’s control is also imminent.
All of a sudden, Suo Lun asked, “Zhi Yan, if I wanted to spank you, would you allow it?”
“Why?
Is it a punishnt or seduction?” Zhi Yan inquired.
“Sigh…” Suo Lun sighed.
“Go ahead, you can spank right now if you want to,” Zhi Yan said.
“Sigh…” Suo Lun’s sigh deepened.
Suo Lun told Ashi Li he wanted to spank her, and she ended up beating him half to death, an unprecedentedly violent reaction.
And when he ntioned spanking to Zhi Yan, she calmly stated it could be done right now.
Both won were equally beautiful, but Zhi Yan’s ethereal aura was simply too intense.
Imdiately after, Suo Lun thought of the bet with Ashi Li, and his heartbeat quickened.
Ashi Li was not just a celestial beauty but also a witch, exuding such a strong and captivating femininity.
Her hips were full and round, like snow and butter; if she were really spanked, it would be utterly soul-consuming.
Hence, with his fantasies and hopes, Suo Lun sped towards Helan Pass in Rou Ran Province, riding the Lion-Tiger Beast.
“Ashi Li, clean your bottom and wait for !”
…
The gateway to Rouran, the battleground for the decisive battle, within Helan Pass!
Ashi Li looked across the devastated battlefield.
Blood was everywhere, bodies strewn all around.
Of the original sixty thousand defending soldiers in Helan Pass, fewer than twenty thousand remained, and almost all were wounded.
The fighting had been fierce and continuous for several days and nights.
The less-than twenty thousand wounded soldiers were exhausted to the extre.
The next wave of the siege was to begin in half an hour.
Ashi Li could even foresee that Crown Prince Lan Tu needed to dispatch only thirty thousand troops to break through Helan Pass.
Yet, Crown Prince Lan Tu had prepared fifty thousand elite soldiers, who had been resting and building strength for several days, like tigers ready to leap from their cages.
Helan Pass was dood to fall.
The peerlessly beautiful Ashi Li looked up to the sky and sighed, “Suo Lun, the last deadline is here, Helan Pass is about to fall, and my bottom is washed, but perhaps all you will see is my corpse.”
