Feng Yu Jiu Tian

Chapter Volume 15 6.8






In a low voice, Lie Er ferociously stated, “You’re right. I’m a spy from Xi Lei who snuck into Yong Yi’s Imperial Palace in order to gather information on the royal family. But if you expect me to divulge any information on my King’s affairs, then don’t waste your time. Yu Lang, don’t think that you can pry open my mouth and gain anything.”


Yu Lang looked at his stubborn expression and broke into laughter. “Did you think that I brought you here in order to torture you for Rong Tian’s whereabouts?”


Lie Er refused to answer him and chose to ignore him by closing his eyes and letting out a “humph” in disdain.


Yu Lang continued, “You were alone in Fen City and have been captured by me. Not many days have passed, but I doubt you have a clear idea on where your King is at this moment. Also, the person you are actually serving now is Xi Lei’s Duke Ming…”


Lie Er’s heart skipped a beat.


He knew Yu Lang was an expert when it came to provocation and reading people’s minds. He continued to keep his eyes shut without speaking a word.


He did not want to be seen as a fool and Yu Lang also did not grow angered. He continued, “Almost everyone in the world knows his whereabouts. While surrounded by Xi Lei’s elite guards and the swordsmen of the Xiao Family, he confidently deludes himself into thinking he is safe. Ah… it is truly ridiculous.”


The words seemed to contain a deeper meaning. On the surface, Lie Er remained calm and collected, but internally, he began to fell anxious.


Could it be that his target is Duke Ming.


This man, he’s deceitful and uses dirty means when aiming for someone. If the target is Duke Ming, he…


Yu Lang was confining Lie Er within his embrace, restricting his body movements. Lie Er lightly contracted his fingers. Despite being such a small action, it still did not escape Yu Lang’s sight.


In their current position, Yu Lang leisurely savoured the sweet fragrance of his cheek in a disrespectful manner. The two were entangled together, however the scene did not appear obscene, but rather mildly romantic.


“Lie Er, do not think too much about that Duke Ming, I will tell you this clearly. There has never been a person who successfully escaped once I had grasped on to them. Otherwise, how could I still be living today?”


His fingertips caressed the beautiful lips and continued to travel up and down the smooth skin. They unhurriedly slid down towards the waistline. Yu Lang leaned closer to Lie Er and said ambiguously, “Lie Er, did you know… You are my biggest regret in life. Back then in Yong Yin, if not for my feelings, in order to not hinder my true purpose, I should have originally killed you off quietly, preventing any trouble from blooming. But when the time came to do so, I couldn’t. The only thing I could do was torture and trample on your feelings in order to stop your illusions of me. It was all to drive you back to the King of Yong Yin’s side where you could enjoy your high position and wealth. Who could have known that you were a spy from Xi Lei? I had truly made in error in my judgement.”


From his throat came a subdued laugh.


“In order for the Kingdom of Li to unite the world, allowing thousands upon thousands of our people to live peacefully and with prosperity, I had sworn to the gods that during my lifetime, my heart would only be given to Li. I… Yu Lang, willingly became an instrument for the kingdom and absolutely would not allow my feelings to bring harm to it. But you…”


He stopped talking and lowered his head to look at Lie Er’s familiar face. His face that had been calmly smiling suddenly distorted.


“Lie Er…” His mouth suddenly covered Lie Er’s long and graceful neck.


He sucked at several areas before eventually forcing his sharp teeth into the flesh, little by little, they pierced into his nape.


“Aghh…” Lie Er let out a slight groan.


His body had been continuously fed drugs these past few days. His weak body could not endure the pain.


Yu Lang’s teeth did not go in too deep, however the continuous biting pained him to the point where he was unable to keep his body from trembling.


The bites seemed to be done hatefully, but then he would use his tongue to lick the wounds he made afterwards. In a low voice, he spoke, “If I had just killed you back then, you wouldn’t have escaped from the Li Kingdom and secretly established a connection between Rong Tian and Yong Yi. Xi Lei and Yong Yin would have had a hard time withstanding my King’s attack on the Aman River. Instead, they were able to form a quick alliance and laid an ambush. During the battle on the river, Li lost the lives of countless soldiers. I never would have expected that, with one momentary slip in action, Li would suffer such serious damage. Merely because I was not willing to part with my selfish desire for you, the lives of many soldiers were lost.”


Lie Er listened as his voice grew more and more remorseful. He was aware that his situation was not good.


Moreover, Yu Lang’s words were not entirely false.


That day, during the battle on the Aman, if not for his secret relationship with Yong Yi, they would not have been able to attain Yong Yin’s support. Xi Lei’s soldiers secretly hid along Yong Yin’s border, allowing Ruo Yan’s men to arrive at the Aman. The reconnaissance team failed to obtain accurate information regarding Xi Lei’s forces. This caused the illusion of Xi Lei’s king remaining missing, allowing Yong Yi to successfully deceive Ruo Yan.


The result of winning or losing a war can occur within the blink of an eye, but the fruits of victory were formed from the tiny seeds that were planted in various situations and events prior to the war.


In the case of the Aman River battle, the key to success was of course Feng Ming’s and Rong Tian’s tacit understanding of the Chain Boat strategy.


But without Lie Er’s gaining of Yong Yin’s support, the outcome would have been difficult to determine.


Even though Lie Er knew he was in trouble, his courage had not diminished. Despite still being imprisoned in Yu Lang’s arms, he ruthlessly replied, “Correct, all of it was my doing. My one regret was that the fire on the Aman River did not burn all of Li’s soldiers and that bastard Ruo Yan.”


Yu Lang merely laughed in response and gently said, “Lie Er, are you trying to annoy me so that I will kill you faster? How can it be that easy?”


Lie Er coldly replied in indignation. “I have already fallen into your hands. Anything you wish to do, you don’t have to hesitate to accomplish. No need to be polite.”
