Chapter 149: Detestable

“Not bad. Since you started to cultivate, then during this moment he is away, shouldn’t you sharpen your training and be of use to him? If you can’t even protect yourself, then forget about repaying back to him. Instead, you’ll just become a burden on his shoulder.”

“…!!!”

“Me? A burden for him?” Bai Yunxian murmured.

It’s something that he didn’t want to happen, not even in his darkest dreams.

“Then hold up your sword and train, until you become someone worthy to stay by his side.”

“I’ll do it.” Bai Yunxian seemed determined as he looked down on the sword, reflecting himself.

Chi Yan understood why Bai Yunxian acted like this. It’s been almost a week since Yun Shu left for the battlefield, and they didn’t get a single letter delivered after her departure.

The battle at the frontline seemed intense with the intel he got from spies. Because the other side had some of the powerful Martial Arts Master’s fighting on behalf of them. Because of the past grudges they had with the Xiao Empire, they allied themselves with them and are now fighting intensely with their life on the line.

’Not like they can fight off that monster.’ Chi Yan sneakered at the thought. Because the monster that he referred to was none other than that person, Yun Shu.

Despite them having dozens of skilled Martial Artists, they wouldn’t be able to bring Yun Shu down so easily, let alone the clan representatives from each clan that are working on behalf of the Empire.

***

At midnight,

After taking a cold shower, Yun Shu finally got rid of all the blood stench from her body as she returned to her quarters. Just as she was about to light the tent, a sound of ornaments came in her ears.

Jingle!

Jingle! Jingle, Jingle!

The sound of anklets grew closer, coming from behind as Yun Shu stood in front of the desk without moving.

“My Lord…” A pair of hands crept up from behind as the woman hugged Yun Shu from behind, her whole body latched onto her.

“Let go of me.” Yun Shu’s voice was cold as ice, which made the girl tremble subconsciously.

Until now, she never met a man with such a terrifying presence. This man was truly exceptional as they said!

“Lord Yun, I know of you very well. They said you are a rich, playboy prince, but I never thought you were so. I, I admire you so much, my lord!” The girl hugged Yun Shu even more tightly, squeezing her chest and breasts on Yun Shu’s back, which gave her the creeps.

’Blegh! Is this how girls at brothels seduce men? So detesting and disgusting!’

“How dare you infiltrate my chambers? Get out right now!” Yun Shu showed no mercy as she grabbed the girl by her wrist and threw her on the ground, glaring at her fiercely like she was some disgusting piece of shit.

“M, my Lord!” The girl was shocked, but at the same time, irritated.

’No way! Didn’t they say that this man was a playboy! If so, what is with this attitude? Why does he look like he despises touching women?’

Watching the way Yun Shu was cleaning her hands with a towel, the girl understood what trouble she fell into.

’No way! There is no way I’m letting him slip out of my hands once I grab him! They said he already has a wife, but if I manage to even become his concubine, it would be worth it!’

“My Lord, I really admire you. I didn’t wish to throw myself at you like this if it weren’t for the fact that you are unapproachable to me. I—” The girl was trying to stand up and approach Yun Shu again, this time aiming for her chest.

However, the moment she was about to jump on Yun Shu, a great force threw her back on the ground, as if slapping her right on the face.

“We’ve come late, My Lord.” Nine and Thirteen apologized while stomping over the girl ruthlessly and standing upright.

“Yeah, yeah, you guys are always late anyway, I don’t want to hear it. Take her out of here right away, I can’t stand that foul stench coming from her anymore.” Yun Shu mocked her guards as she waved her hand, telling them to take this woman and get lost.

Anyway, it’s a setting for all the novel or story plots that guards will arrive after the fighting, she can’t blame them even if she wants to, can she?

Nine and Thirteen’s mouth twitched after being ridiculed like this, but it was the truth they couldn’t shake off of their shoulders.

So they bowed in apology once again as the both of them glared at the woman on the ground.

’It’s all that woman’s fault that we failed to meet our lord’s expectations! We’ll never forgive her!’

’Wh- what is it?’ The woman flinched in fear as she saw their blazing eyes, but didn’t quite understand the concept.

“It’s the fifth time this week, every night there would be a woman annoying me. Which fool is it that keeps sending them here? Is it that they don’t know I keep all the confidential documents here, or is it deliberate, trying to distract me with women and steal the documents?”

Yun Shu’s grumbling voice sent shivers down their spine, which also sent a signal for the shadows in the dark.

They didn’t step in knowing that this measly woman wouldn’t be enough to harm her, but they didn’t see the importance of this matter.

“M, my Lord! I’ve made a great discourtesy! Please forgive me! I’ll do anything you want, please don’t kill me!”

The girl fell in all fours, crawling on the ground and begging for forgiveness. This was a serious matter that she could get implicated for, and there is no way a simple brothel woman like her would be backed up by that man who sent her here!
