Death Scripture
chapter-326

"How could you negotiate peace with Golden Roc Fort?"

Luo Ningcha did not sense the danger lurking at all, and although she did not insist Dragon King to "crawl over", her tone sounded like she was reprimanding a slave.

"The Lord still has two sons alive. You need to kill them off so that Cheng'er could succeed to the throne. Then we can discuss the peace negotiations, isn't it better this way?"

While Luo Ningcha was happily talking by herself, Gu Shenwei was somewhat confused by her words. The Supreme King still had four sons left, perhaps she only acknowledged both Shangguan Nu and Shangguan Fei and excluded Shangguan Hong the illegitimate son and Third Young Master Shangguan Yun, who was imprisoned. As for Cheng'er, that should be the son that Luo Ningcha gave birth to.

Luo Ningcha even softened her tone at the mention of "Cheng'er", which was something that Gu Shenwei found exceptionally rare.

"He's only two years old but he's already grabbing a wooden saber and running about, even the Lord praised him about it! Cheng'er is the 10th son of the Lord, and his name is 'Cheng', which echoes the prophecy of '10 sons becoming king'! I have a hunch that Cheng'er is going to become the Supreme King, and I will be there to witness it. Golden Roc Fort belongs to him - it belongs to us both, mother and son."

"He's still so young, there's no need to rush." Gu Shenwei couldn't hold himself back and reminded her, but soon regretted his words. Luo Ningcha was especially sensitive about this topic and immediately started to rattle on about it after being challenged.

"He's not young at all. Evil people will start to lay hands on him once he's older. I need to strike first to thwart the enemy and help my son to remove his obstacles. Anybody standing in his way will be eliminated."

"Slave Huan." Luo Ningcha spoke anxiously, calling the former name of Dragon King out of habit. "You have to help me. Help me think of new ideas. You are the most reliable person for us to depend on, and once Cheng'er becomes Supreme King, he will have the power of life and death over many people. You can seek revenge and kill whoever you want."

"I want to seek revenge on Golden Roc Fort, therefore your son is my enemy as well. I won't help you." Gu Shenwei stated matter-of-factly; he wanted to cut ties off with this woman using this plain and outright rejection. Also, how could anyone possibly fail to understand such a simple logic?

Luo Ningcha narrowed her eyes as she was planning to throw something at Gu Shenwei but instead walked towards him. "Cheng'er is your child." She said, so close that Gu Shenwei could feel her breath on his face.

Gu Shenwei was shocked. He must have had a really weird expression on his face as his mind ran wild. He also noticed something even weirder in Luo Ningcha's eyes.

Luo Ningcha kept a straight face and was unprecedentedly serious. Then she let out a laugh, clutching her stomach, and was soon laughing until she was almost out of breath.

Gu Shenwei was furious. As Dragon King, he had never been teased like this before. His hand involuntarily went towards the handle of his saber.

Luo Ningcha had a hard time trying to stop her laughter. She still didn't sense the danger lurking around her. Turning around and walking towards the screen, she said, "In your dreams! How old were you back then? You expect me to give you a son? Is it even possible? Even if I count my 10 fingers..."

Gu Shenwei carried Luo Ningcha from behind and threw her onto the bed.

Luo Ningcha screamed, "You want to..."

Gu Shenwei didn't want anything. He straddled atop her and tore her clothes off.

Luo Ningcha struggled as she tried to resist. Lashing out at him in a low voice, she said, "Let go of me, you jerk. You are my slave. Don't you dare touch me without my permission."

Her words angered Dragon King even more, and there was only one way to release this fury. He gave her a slap on the face without exerting too much force, but it still caused a rough flush.

Luo Ningcha froze for a moment before she clenched her teeth and attacked the man on top of her like crazy. She strangled, bit, scratched and grabbed him, resorting to every conceivable way possible.

Gu Shenwei was not tender to her as well. Like a silent wolf, his actions were rough and forceful. He left patches of bruises on the delicate woman, rubbing and squeezing her like a soft dough.

Like the snow of black and red colors mixing together, their clothes were torn into pieces during the fierce wrestling.

Even while doing the deed, Luo Ningcha did not give up struggling. She added countless tiny bloodstains to Gu Shenwei's already scarred body.

Gu Shenwei was very surprised that he still retained a strong memory of her body, and knew how to fit in with her in order to get pleasure from it.

After the first time, the two of them laid side by side on the bed, with nothing on their minds. And then, acting simultaneously without prior agreement, they did it again for the second time.

After the deed, Gu Shenwei realized he had no clothes to wear. Just as he was thinking about it, two sets of clothes were thrown in through the crack of the door.

Xu Yanwei was very sharp when it came to such affairs.

Luo Ningcha pointed to a small scar above her right breast, "This was stabbed by Maid Lotus, that traitor. I heard that she is still following you."

"Yes." Gu Shenwei replied, neither satisfied nor guilty. His anger was gone and he was calm again as he slowly put his clothes on.

"Avenge me," Luo Ningcha spat out these words, her tone brief and forceful, as though this was an order that could not be refused.

"No," Gu Shenwei answered briefly and forcefully as well.

"What did you say?" Luo Ningcha sat up all of a sudden. She even forgot to cover herself with the quilt.

"I said no." Gu Shenwei replied coldly as he put his saber on his belt.

Luo Ningcha was capricious, "How dare you..."

"I dare to because I am no longer your slave, and the same goes for Maid Lotus. I won't do anything for you. You are a foolish woman, and you have always been. You are not worthy of my service."

Luo Ningcha was dumbfounded. The last time she was so frightened was when she heard about the death of Bighead Kingpin. After that, she had never been this afraid even when facing the Supreme King.

Gu Shenwei was about to leave. He wanted her to wake up from all her fantasies, so he said, "Continue to let your son grow up. I won't kill him until he reaches the age of 14."

Luo Ningcha could not recognize the man in front of her. In terms of looks, he was similar to Slave Huan, yet he completely turned into another person when he started talking. She did not know what or how to feel and actually said these words with a pleading tone, "Slave Huan, you are the only one in my heart. It's true, ever since I was pregnant, I did not let the Lord touch me again."

Gu Shenwei looked at this woman: she was the most famous and beautiful woman in Jade City, his former master, the Miss who had brought him endless humiliation. His face was as cold as frost, then he said, "That means nothing to me," and turned to leave. She was no different from anyone who could be killed by a saber and he felt nothing within his heart for her.

Luo Ningcha collapsed on the bed and sobbed uncontrollably. She did not understand how had Slave Huan become so ruthless. What about the pleasure they had just now, was it all a dream?

Her world was extremely simple; it was built swiftly and, therefore, it collapsed as easily as well.

Xu Yanwei tiptoed into the room quietly and sat on the edge of the bed. Her resentment towards the Miss had disappeared, and her compassion for her overflowed excessively like a river. "Men are all like this," she consoled.

"But even him! Even he wants to betray me?" Luo Ningcha still could not accept what had just happened.

"Dragon King is a man as well, and men are never loyal to women. Especially for men like Dragon King! They kill, fight, and conquer. Only sabers, blood, territories, and titles matter to them. Women are not a part of it. Never."

Xu Yanwei did not give much thought to her words when she tried to console the Miss. But she also felt that her words were quite reasonable after she finished talking. Dragon King was probably already ambitious back then when he refused to sleep with her , she thought to herself.

Luo Ningcha looked up at Xu Yanwei, who was immersed in her thoughts. Such an expression really did not suit her; however, she was moved by Xu Yanwei's remarks. "But women will always have a way to take revenge for themselves. Right?"

Xu Yanwei herself already failed to keep up with her own train of thoughts. Startled from her deep thoughts, she said, "What? Revenge? Our revenge as women is to see these men killing each other. Just wait for the winner to give us the most money. We don't need to do anything. "

"You're right. Men will always kill one another, I am so stupid," Luo Ningcha said as she suddenly came to a realization. "Why should I beg him? If they can settle for peace negotiations today, they might start fighting again tomorrow. Go and kill, then. Kill everybody off."

Xu Yanwei had nothing more to say, so she let the Miss rest on her lap as she continued crying.

Even the Miss could not have everything as she wished, Xu Yanwei thought to herself. Suddenly she doubted herself as well; was she getting on in age, why was she so sentimental all of a sudden?

Maid Lotus made no comment on what Dragon King had done. She seemed to have completely severed her own feelings and cooperated with Dragon King purely as the Managing Master of New Moon Hall.

Gu Shenwei carefully observed her every move but did not find anything unusual about Maid Lotus.

Fang Wenshi came running in during the evening with some bad news. "We underestimated the Supreme King indeed. He must have planned to seek a marriage with the Stone Kingdom for a long time. I heard that all of Stone Kingdom was bought over by Golden Roc Fort, even the servants sweeping the palace floors are on Supreme King's side. The King of Stone Kingdom was weak and sick, and it's probably not by chance that he has no children. This is the day that the Supreme King has been waiting for after so many years of painstaking effort."

Gu Shenwei thought about his Master Shifu. Tie Hanfeng had spent 10 years "raising" a major Protector, only to kill and rob him of all his property when he retired.

Golden Roc Fort had their own style of handling matters, and the methods used by Tie Hanfeng and the Supreme King were similar, just that the scale varied greatly.

"The Stone Kingdom is very important." Fang Wenshi was very sour about it. He did not count on Dragon King to marry the princess, but it was still a great victory as long as Golden Roc Fort's plan was ruined. He still could not bear to give up that piece of territory. "The five kingdoms of Xiaoyao Lake; with the Stone Kingdom strategically located at the opening of imports and exports, taking down a kingdom would mean occupying all five kingdoms. This could save at least 10 years of time in hegemony for the Western Region."

"I won't let the Supreme King have his way." Gu Shenwei comforted the military counselor, as a rough plan already formed in his mind.

"It's good that we have the support of the Central Plain. The five kingdoms of Xiaoyao Lake are friendly with the Central Plain and this can help offset some of the influence from Supreme King. The Central Plain will send out another Special Envoy to Xiaoyao Lake. You can join hands with him and tackle Golden Roc Fort. Shangguan Fei is incompetent so there's nothing fearful about him. It's a pity I still have to handle the peace negotiations and cannot accompany you, Dragon King."

He could not conclude too early whether Shangguan Fei was incompetent or not. Gu Shenwei then told the military counselor his plan. Fang Wenshi pondered for a moment after listening and actually nodded his head in agreement for once. "I think this could work."

Tie Hanfeng robbed and killed the major Protector that he had cultivated for 10 years. The final beneficiary was not himself though, but his disciple, Slave Huan. Gu Shenwei gained a lot of inspiration from this story.
