Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant

Exchange Transfusion

Seeing his own country’s troops, Min Liang slightly relaxed. As long as he could go home, he could make a comeback. He was confident in himself, believed he could do it.

So he mutely said, “I need to get the antidote myself. Let me go, and I will give you the antidote!”

He dared to be this confident also because of Mo Linyuan’s actions these few days. If not for loving a person so deeply, how could Mo Linyuan come to attack Li Country so quickly? Since Mo Linyuan cared, he must be uncompromising so that he could leave with his life intact.

Mo Linyuan narrowed his eyes. That fierce murderous look almost made Min Liang suffocate!

But after a long time had passed, he suddenly said, “Alright, I accept!”

The two armies were poised for battle now, and Mo Linyuan wanted to give the culprit to Li Country? This time, not only Mo**’s squadron, even Yan Country’s people also revealed displeasure.

“Don’t!” A high-ranking officer under Mo Linyuan stopped him. “Your Majesty, this person is ruthless and cunning, if we return* him, there will be more trouble!”

*t/n: he uses 放虎归山 which means letting the tiger return to the mountains.

Yan’s general also said, “The five countries’ alliance this time—we were all deceived by this person. His ambition is clear, tried in vain to conquer the world. All the six countries are injured now, only Li Country is unscathed. If we let this person go, we will be the ones in danger!”

Min Liang wore white clothes stained with blood. Even in Mo Linyuan’s clutch, he was still smiling coldly. He narrowed his eyes as he said, “Mo Linyuan, the final say is in your hands now. This drug actually has no solution, but it was developed by my master. My master is now dead, so now only I know how to solve it! So what are you hesitant about?”

Mo Linyuan certainly wouldn’t hesitate. He little by little loosened his grip on Min Liang.

“Wait!”

Suddenly, a female’s voice was heard. Ye Mu walked up to the front step by step. At this moment, she was thinner than before, as if a gust of wind could blow her away.

“Alright.” She reached Mo Linyuan’s side, and Mo Linyuan immediately turned around, but his hold on her hand was gentle.

Before, Ye Mu didn’t feel she was poisoned because Min Liang had been giving her drugs, making her body weak and paralyzed, so she didn’t know she was drugged.

But these few days, Min Liang no longer gave her drugs. She finally felt the change in her body. This world’s drugs and her world’s were different. It could make her body suffer from so much pain. She might only be able to live by continuously taking medicine. But she knew better than anyone the consequence of continuously taking medicine.

So Ye Mu raised her head to look at Mo Linyuan. Her eyes were filled with sorrow.

“This drug has no antidote. He’s lying to you.”

Min Liang didn’t expect Ye Mu would be the one to interrupt in the end. He coldly smiled. “Do you not want to live anymore? Or are you afraid Mo Linyuan will release me, so you purposely said there is no antidote?”

Earnestly, Ye Mu said, “In this drug, there is something that makes people addicted. All that makes a person addicted don’t have an antidote unless it’s endured or by continuing to take medicine.”

Min Liang was dumbfounded in his heart. Only Li Country had this drug right now, how could Ye Mu know so much?

Ye Mu continued, “With my body right now, after eating it I’ll at most be fine for a short while, but will only get worse later. It won’t be long before I only walk the path toward death, so…”

She grasped Mo Linyuan’s hand. “Kill him. We’ll think of another way for my problem, okay?”

Mo Linyuan’s heart ached. If there was another way, why would he have come this far?

Min Liang was terrified. He was thrown to the side by Mo Linyuan, but did not dare to act rashly.

“Mo Linyuan, you won’t really listen to her nonsense, will you? The thing I made myself, how can there be no antidote?”

Mo Linyuan gazed at Ye Mu, not speaking.

Min Liang stayed calm as he retreated a few steps. In a loud voice he said, “If you want her to live, I am your only option!”

Tears fell from Ye Mu’s eyes. She leaned against Mo Linyuan’s embrace. Voice muffled, she said, “Husband, I’m a little tired.”

Her saying tired made Mo Linyuan’s heart ache so badly that he couldn’t stand it. Seeing his own plan could no longer be carried out, Min Lian suddenly turned around and used qinggong to quickly flee in the direction of Li**’s squadron.

At this moment, both sides were the main forces that were holding the lines. So long as he moved a little quicker, he could live!

As long as he could go back, everything was not over yet, he had not lost!

Seeing Min Liang act as such, Li’s general hurriedly sent someone to help him, but in the split second when Min Liang was about rush into Li**’s squadron, Mo Linyuan waved his hand. A swift dagger passed through the gap between several people and plunged into Min Liang’s back!

His face still held joy and anticipation, but that expression was doomed to freeze at that moment.

Following Min Liang’s crash to the ground, both groups were stupefied. Without waiting for Li’s general to say anything, Mo Linyuan hugged Ye Mu as he said, “Lieutenant*, listen to my command.”

*Mo Linyuan uses 左将军 (zuo jiang jun) which literally translates to Left General. It’s among the three highest senior positions, ranked second. The first being 大将军 (Big General) and the last 右将军 (Right General).

The high-ranking officer that stopped Mo Linyuan earlier stepped forward. “Here!”

Mo Linyuan’s voice was very light. “This sovereign will give you a month’s time to wipe out Li Country. Can you do it?”

That general looked at Mo Linyuan’s extremely pale face and felt sorry for him.

“This subordinate will not let Your Majesty down!”

After that, both parties started fighting. Mo Linyuan had carried Ye Mu home. He didn’t wear any armor and only wore a white long gown. At this moment, the long gown lifted from the wind, and there was an indescribable silence.

Ye Mu was asleep, but Mo Linyuan knew, she was weak to the extreme. If this was fate, he did not believe it. He must fight it!

Afterward, Mo Linyuan fed Ye Mu medicine to make her sink into a deep sleep. When Ye Mu woke up, she found she was already in Mo Country’s imperial palace!

What was going on?

The moment she woke up, Mo Linyuan grabbed her hand. Ye Mu wanted to speak at first, but she suddenly felt queasy inside, making her whole person curl up!

Mo Linyuan didn’t tell her anything about the war. He stretched out his hands and lightly held her in his arms, her body curved from pain.

“Mu-er, don’t be afraid, I’ve found a way to save you!”

Ye Mu looked at him weakly. If he’d found it, why hadn’t he saved her? She was in pain, every minute she was in pain!

Mo Linyuan also lost weight with her. He said in a deep voice, “The poison has seeped into your blood vessels. I found someone who said they can give you an exchange transfusion, but—”

Mo Linyuan didn’t say the rest. In modern times, exchange transfusion of the whole body was very difficult, much less in this period?

Ye Mu eased up after a long while, her body slowly relaxing. When she had calmed down, she saw Mo Linyuan’s bloodshot eyes and her heart ached.

He asked, “Are you willing to try?”
