Chapter 56 Xiaoyao, Stay or See Them Die
Suddenly footsteps rang in the courtyard. Wuyou hid in the corner. She did not show up until she could catch clear sight. Su Chenyang came, with Shen Chuya and Leng Mohan on his heels, behind him, who surprised Wuyou a bit.
“Commander in Chief, if you are ready, let’s go!”
Wuyou followed Su Chenyang closely, with Shen Chuya behind them. Seeing them walking out of Yun Shu Wan, Xiao Nai turned around and flew to the palace gate. Wuyou held her baby tightly. The palace gate was in front. Su Chenyang swept his spiritual finger, and then the gate guard fell on the ground and slept. Leng Mohan opened the gate. But Su Chenyang felt it strange that there was not a guard along the way. At that moment, Wuyou only hoped to leave the Fairy City as soon as possible and find the sorcery doctor to help her restore her Spirit Power. However, when the palace gate opened, what Wuyou saw was rows upon rows of human walls before her. And the person in front was Xiao Nai.
“Nai, why you are here?”
Wuyou stepped forward and looked at Xiao Nai in surprise on the opposite side. Su Chenyang himself did not expect that Xiao Nai would be there and thought that, “It is all my fault. I should not have told him. I just hoped one more person would add one more chance for Commander in Chief to escape from the Fairy City. But I never expected that this guy would stop me.”
“Nai, let Commander in Chief out of the city...” Shen Chuya just hoped he could persuade Xiao Nai to let Jiang Wuyou go out of the city. But Xiao Nai steadfastly refused to do so, totally ignoring the brotherhood. Su Chenyang knew that Commander in Chief had only one chance. After tonight, it would be harder to escape. In order to repay the gratitude for Xu Linghe to save his life, Su Chenyang did not hesitate to help Wuyou, even it would displease the Emperor, and so he swept his Spirit Power toward Xiao Nai.
“Nai, I, Su Chenyang, never ask for help... But this time, could you please let Commander in Chief go? We all survived from the soul battle arena. If it had not been Commander in Chief who had saved us painstakingly, you and I would have died. Nai... She is just a weak woman now. If His Majesty stays her here with force, it is immoral... It is natural that she wants to find her husband. Why does His Majesty prevent her?”
“Commander in Chief Su, talk these later to His Majesty. I only take orders from His Majesty.”
Xiao Nai condensed his Spirit Power secretly, and Leng Mohan transformed himself into an eagle and flew out. Actually, the eagle tribe was discontented with Xiao Qi, so Leng Mohan was more disdainful of Xiao Nai. How could Xiao Nai even betray his own brothers? On the other hand, Xiao Nai did not put Leng Mohan in his eyes at all arrogantly. He held his Phoenix Spirit Meniscus Tulwaur in his hand and chopped at Leng Mohan. Soldiers mustering at the city gate blocked the entrance, even a drop of water couldn’t leak out. Wuyou never expected that Xiao Qi would treat her like that. She thought, “Xiao Qi never pressed me to do anything before, and I also once considered him as my friend. Without Xiao Qi, I could not live here. But love can’t be forced. I only love Xu Linghe.” The baby in her arms seemed to be awakened by the noise and let out a cry across the night sky. Wuyou patted her baby’s back with heartache. Su Chenyang changed into a water dragon and shot at the soldiers. The soldier guarding the gate screamed with fright since he had never seen such situation before. Xiao Nai’s Meniscus Tulwaur was suspending in the midair. This was the first time for Wuyou to see it. Su Chenyang condensed water chains, trying to bind Xiao Nai’s Meniscus Tulwaur. However, the Meniscus Tulwaur’s Spirit Power spread outwards and turned the water chains back. Shen Chuya protected Wuyou and her son. Leng Mohan extended his eagle wings out, and his spiritual wings charged at the soldiers on the city gate. Xiao Nai’s Meniscus Tulwaur intercepted them, and the spiritual wings were shot to the ground. Su Chenyang then transformed himself into a water curtain, fenced out the soldiers on the city gate, and shielded Wuyou to leave. Xiao Nai flew upward and blocked Wuyou’s way. Chen Chuya gave out a palm, but Xiao Nai took it. His Phoenix Spirit Meniscus Tulwaur swirled in the spirit light. When it got full power, it thrust at Chen Chuya and he was catapulted away heavily. Wuyou stared at Chen Chuya got hurt, but could not do anything to help him.
“Xiao Qi, come out.”
Wuyou stood on the city gate and shouted Xiao Qi’s name. She knew that Xiao Qi was looking at her somewhere. Wuyou was unwilling to see the brothers fight against each other, but Xiao Qi made everything unable to go back. Because of his selfishness, he made the brothers who used to fight hard in bloody battles stood opposite. The corner of Shen Chuya’s mouth was bleeding, and his heart was shook furiously by Xiao Nai’s Meniscus Tulwaur. But how could Shen Chuya sit by and leave Commander in Chief alone? He was bound to protect Jiang Wuyou. As early as in the soul battle arena, with a glance back, the woman had fallen into his heart. Shen Chuya wanted nothing but the Commander in Chief left there safely to see her husband. Even if Commander in Chief had forgotten everything, Shen Chuya harbored no regrets.
“Chuya.”
Wuyou raised Shen Chuya, and Su Chenyang stood close to Wuyou and her baby. Xiao Nai was no longer their brother. To show loyalty to Xiao Qi, Xiao Nai even hurt his old brothers. Xiao Nai held the Meniscus Tulwaur in his hand and blocked their way. Leng Mohan gathered his Spirit Power and cleaved at the city gate. With a bang, the city gate collapsed, and the soldiers on it also fell with gravel. Leng Mohan spread his wings and hovered above the soldiers, his sharp claws piercing through the guards’ chests. The air was crammed with the smell of blood. Su Chenyang safeguarded Wuyou and her baby and moved step by step toward the palace gate. But how could Xiao Nai allow them to leave? Xiao Qi had decreed that whosoever dared to take Commander in Chief away from the Fairy City set himself/herself against the royal authority and would be killed without mercy. Xiao Nai had no way but to be loyal to the Fairy King. And at that moment, Xiao Nai was like a killing machine. His eyes was reddened, and his Phoenix spirit was seething in his body. His Spirit Power spread from his fingers to all over his body. The Meniscus Tulwaur absorbed in the Spirit Power. When the Meniscus Tulwaur became ablaze and red, Xiao Nai brandished it at Su Chenyang. Su Chenyang gestured and fended off the attack. Leng Mohan changed himself with his body covered with the cold iron armor. Xiao Nai’s swirling Meniscus Tulwaur was shot to the ground by the cold iron armor. Leng Mohan waved his wings and charged at Xiao Nai. Xiao Nai condensed his Spirit Power, lifted the city gate and flew to Wuyou, because he would not allow the group of people to leave. Xiao Qi loved Jiang Wuyou, and it was undoubted that Xiao Nai should help his Emperor to keep Wuyou stay in the Fairy City. Seeing Xiao Nai behaving like that, Su Chenyang was aware that Xiao Nai was abnormal then, for the youth who used to be innocent had been changed by Xiao Qi, and that Xiao Nai was only Xiao Qi’s puppet. So Su Chenyang transformed himself into a water cannon and shot at Xiao Nai. The heavy artillery was bombarded in the night sky, and then soldiers on the city gate fell to the ground. Wuyou held her baby in the arms and kept running forward.
“Xiaoyao.”
Jiang Wuyou stopped, and Shen Chuya stuck up for his Commander in Chief. The man standing on the corner of the ally wore a mantle made of peacock feather, his eyes gleamed with imposing chill. Looking at the man in front, Wuyou felt calm. “That’s right. Xiao Qi is not what he used to be. His warmth has been blown away by the night wind and turned into a chilly ice. He is not the person I used to trust. The Xiao Qi who accompanied me in my helpless situation has disappeared. The Xiao Qi who helped me at the cost of his own Spirit Power has disappeared.” Suddenly, Wuyou’s heart ached, for Xiao Qi of the past, as well as for herself.
“Commander in Chief, I will always be with you.”
Shen Chuya defended Wuyou tightly, which seemed to provoke the person on the corner of the ally.
The night wind, mixed with snowflakes, slapped on Wuyou’s neck. Wuyou wiped the water drops on the face. Su Chenyang in the distance was entangled by the reinforcements. Leng Mohan was fighting with Xiao Nai. So the only person that could protect Wuyou was Shen Chuya.
“Xiaoyao, you stay here... or he...”
As soon as the voice fell, Xiao Qi slammed out a palm. And Shen Chuya was shot out, his body like a broken luxurious batting...
“Commander in Chief, I can only accompany you here. I have to go first.”
Shen Chuya wanted to hold Wuyou’s hands, but Xiao Qi slammed out another palm. Shen Chuya was thrown into the air. Wuyou wanted to catch Chen Chuya, but it was too late. Xiao Qi, like a devil from hell, approached Wuyou step by step.
“Xiaoyao, could you stay with me?”
“I am Xu Linghe’s wife, forever.”
“My cousin forgot you. And you are nothing now.”
“So what? I will have him remember... Xiao Qi, we should be friends. You destroy everything. You once gave me confidence when I was most helpless... let me trust you.”
“And so what? I want to keep you. What can you do with me?”
Xiao Qi hugged Wuyou, and the baby in Wuyou’s arms awakened Xiao Qi. The corner of Wuyou’s mouth was bitten by Xiao Qi. Wuyou gave a smack on Xiao Qi’s face, and her little hand kept wiping her mouth. “This brute dares to kiss me!”
Su Chenyang was also shocked at what happened just now. Was Xiao Qi mad? How could he be so rude to Commander in Chief? If one day, Xu Linghe knew it, he would kill Xiao Qi tens of thousands of times. Su Chenyang used the water cannon to shoot at the soldiers on the ground. Leng Mohan looked at Xiao Qi with darkened eyes. It seemed that Xiao Qi really liked Commander in Chief. How could he so frivolously kiss Commander in Chief in the presence of guards? Leng Mohan thought, “My eagle’s tribe serves for the Fairy Kingdom for generations. But even until now, there is no benefit gained at all. Xiao Qi even is so ruthless to his subordinates. Someday, will I have the same fate as Shen Chuya?”
Leng Mohan broke away from Xiao Nai’s constraint and flew to Wuyou. But Xiao Qi slammed a palm at Leng Mohan.
“Mohan, don’t mind me and just leave here quickly... Chuya is dead. I don’t want you to die.”
“Commander in Chief, the Fairy Kingdom is not worthwhile to stay any longer. Let’s leave here together.”
Leng Mohan gathered his Spirit Power and made up his mind. “Today, you, Xiao Qi, die or I die. People of my eagle tribe are always slaves for generations. As the Master of the eagle tribe, I should do something for my people. Even if I die, I will have no regrets.”
“Xiao Qi, take your life.”
Leng Mohan condensed his Spirit Power and moved his fingers, his feather flicking in the night sky. As soon as his feathers came closer to Xiao Qi, it changed into the eagle-tribe soldiers, each of whom held a sword in his hand and stabbed out as quickly as lightning. Xiao Qi gathered his Spirit Power quietly and swept away. And then, the solider fell to the ground, but were injected Spirit Power quickly by Leng Mohan. Tens of thousands of soldiers approached hard at Xiao Qi. In blade light and sword shadow, Xiao Qi’s sleeves were cut open. No matter how powerful Xiao Qi was, he could not resist numerous soldiers himself. Xiao Nai flew head-on, and his Meniscus Tulwaur rotated in the midair. Su Chenyang saw Leng Mohan delaying Xiao Qi and pulled Wuyou’s hands to rush forward.
“Chenyang, we can’t leave Mohan behind.” Wuyou shook off Su Chenyang’s hands and tried to turn back.
“Commander in Chief, never look back and just keep going forward. Don’t worry about me. Today, we have to say goodbye to each other, and it may be the goodbye forever. But I don’t regret at all. During the fight in the fire tribe, you risked your life to save us. I will be your soldier in the next life.”
“Mohan... I, Jiang Wuyou, am sorry for my brothers. I only think about myself, but forget your hardships. Chuya has died for me. I can’t abandon you.”
Su Chenyang could not think too much, and he gave Wuyou a whack, then Wuyou fainted. Xiao Douya slept soundly in his mother’s arms. Su Chenyang carried Wuyou in the arms and flew up to the cloud sea. Xiao Qi’s wrath filled the sky. He gestured with his hands and charged at Leng Mohan. Leng Mohan was bounced dozens of meters away after being blown heavily. How could Xiao Qi allow Wuyou to leave him? Xiao Qi got rid of Leng Mohan and followed up to the cloud sea. Then, Xiao Nai pressed hard to Leng Mohan.
“Xiao Nai, why do you stop Commander in Chief? Do you want to force her to die? His Majesty is ruthless, and you’re more heartless. We are brothers who once experienced bloody battles together. Commander in Chief treated you well. And merely for the Emperor, you dared to betray your brothers, broke the promise of saving Commander in Chief together, even revealed it to His Majesty...”
“His Majesty once saved my life. It’s no use saying more. I am only loyal to the Emperor...”
Leng Mohan caught up with Xiao Qi, displayed his sorcery and set formation to trap Xiao Qi. And Su Chenyang’s secret spirit changed into a water spirit and wrapped Wuyou.
