Angela walked over and said, “Father, I think.. That Chi Yu Han really doesn’t have to die. If we keep him alive, maybe it will actually turn out in our favor. You must know, that north of Dragon City, and even further north of the Ice Ridge Mountains, a terrible force is starting to rise…”
Luo Lei let out a deep sigh and said, “Alright then… seeing as all of you are saying this, then I have decided to show mercy on Chi Yu Han and Chi Yu Qing. However, from now on, you are not permitted to step onto Ba Huang City’s territory, or else you will be pursued and killed!”
Chi Yu Han smiled, “That’s good, that is also what I want.”
Luo Lei smiled and turned around to face General Forgotten Sea, “We must let the world know of our decision. Send a message out to Jiu Li City, Fan Shu City, Tian Ling City, Moon City, Flaming Cloud City, Abyss City, Iron Skull City, Nine Heavens City, and Waterfront City that whoever dares to harbor Chi Yu Han and Chi Yu Qing, will become Ba Huang City’s enemy, and that I will bring the full might of my empire upon them!”
Frost was startled, “Duke Luo Lei, if you tell the world that, then where are Chi Yu Han and Chi Yu Qing supposed to go? If it’s like this, then what is the difference between exiling them and killing them?”
Forgotten Sea let out a cold laugh, “Ever since the ancient times, only one or two out of every ten who have been exiled have survived. My lord Frost, it can’t be that you don’t understand such a simple principle?”
Everyone on the scene was shocked. We all knew that Luo Lei wanted to kill Chi Yu Han. This son of his enemy in the end was a thorn in his eye. If he didn’t pull him out, then he would never be able to rest peacefully.
Right as everyone seemed unable to find a solution, I walked forward and said, “Then I have a suggestion. I own a city under the name of ‘Dragon’s Den’, and we are willing to take in Chi Yu Han and Chi Yu Qing. However, we must obtain the permission of Duke Luo Lei first. As long as you give your agreement, then I will take on this task!”
Luo Lei’s eyes turned cold and he roared, “Young one, you have no idea what your limits are do you! At a time like this, you still want to take in Chi Yu Han and Chi Yu Qing? Do you know what the dangers are in doing this?! Even if your Dragon’s Den were to take in Chi Yu Han and Chi Yu Qing, that means that I will no longer consider the Dragon’s Den as part of Ba Huang City’s Territory. Whether or not you are to live or die, Ba Huang City will not get involved in your business ever!”
I couldn’t help but smile, “That is just what I wanted. From today onwards, Dragon’s Den will no longer be under Ba Huang City’s reign. Chi Yu Han and Chi Yu Qing will then live under the roof of the Dragon’s Den. However, just because you are heartless, that does not mean that I cannot be unjust. If Ba Huang City is ever under attack, then our Dragon’s Den will, just as before, provide assistance.”
“Hmph!”
Luo Lei waved his hand, his eyes filled with anger, “Do your best to survive, Lord of the Dragon’s Den! I, Luo Lei, will never allow a lone city to fight under Ba Huang City’s flag!”
Frost gritted her teeth and pulled her Severing Beauty out of the ground and yelled, “All Dragon City Dragon Knights, at attention!”
A group of Dragon City Cavalrymen all pulled out their swords and raised them in front of their chests, “Attention!”
Frost looked up at the sky and in a loud clear voice, “From now on, Dragon’s Den, within the Grave of the Warring States, is now our brother city! If the Dragon’s Den were to take any attack, then Dragon City will provide assistance, no matter who the aggressor is!”
Luo Lei was furious, “Frost, you!”
Luo Lin also raised a fist, “Frost, are you crazy? Don’t forget, Dragon City’s military is mine!”
Frost smiled and knelt to the ground, “My King, don’t you forget, half a month ago, you became the commander of the four great armies, Purple Star, Nightmare, Desolate Cloud, and Imperial Defense, and have relinquished command to myself. Furthermore, I’m just making sure that Ba Huang City doesn’t act on a whim and cut off an arm and a leg. At that point, when the demons of the north come to invade, who are we to use to help defend? My lord, please understand your servants considerations.”
Luo Lin’s hands shook, “Nevermind, as long as you know what it is that you’re doing…”
