A small smile appeared on Gu Ruoyun’s face. Her clear eyes were focused on the man in black standing in front of her: “Whether I’m stalling for time or not, before you kill me, you should at least tell me your name, right?”
“My name?” The man in black sneered, “You’re not worthy of knowing my name! Gu Ruoyun, no matter how long you drag this out, it’s no use. No one will be able to save you…”
“Who said that no one would be able to save her?”
Suddenly, a roar of rage sounded from behind Gu Ruoyun. Turning to look, the crowd saw General Luo and Luo Yin leading tens of thousands of elite soldiers from the crowd. As if they had discussed it beforehand, everyone parted to form a road for them so that they could smoothly walk to Gu Ruoyun’s side.
In an instant, those elite soldiers brought out their weapons and surrounded Ling Yu and the man in black.
“General Luo,” Ling Yu’s expression had turned ugly, “As the general of a nation, you’re actually abusing your official authority, using the imperial troops for a personal grudge!”
With a swoosh, General Luo took out his greatsword and stabbed it into the ground before him with a bang. He was dressed in full armour, an awe-inspiring war god defending Gu Ruoyun.
“Who said that this general is abusing his authority and using it for personal grudges? This general is protecting Azure Dragon Country!” He sneered as he looked at the man in black, “A man of unknown origins has infiltrated my Azure Dragon Country. As a general of Azure Dragon Country, I have to investigate this matter thoroughly. Who knows if he’ll affect the safety of His Majesty! Thus, before your identity is clear, please follow me.”
A cold and gloomy aura wrapped around the man in black. His venomous snake-like eyes were locked onto General Luo’s mountain of a figure. With a rough voice, he said: “I don’t want to tangle with the military of a nation, so if you’re smart, leave immediately! Otherwise, I’ll kill you first!”
Instantly, sharp killing intent swept towards General Luo.
Under that murderous pressure, General Luo’s face turned pale and his body swayed. However, upon thinking that he was the general of a nation at the very least, wouldn’t it look terrible if he was beaten by someone in front of the populace? Thus, he squared his shoulders and stood straight in front of the man in black.
“Gu Ruoyun, are you okay?”
Luo Yin rushed to Gu Ruoyun’s side and asked, full of worry: “Who is this guy? Why does he want to help Ling Yu kill you?”
She didn’t think that Ling Yu was capable of inviting an expert like that.
“I’m not sure,” Gu Ruoyun shook her head, “That aura on his body is foreign to me; I’ve never seen it before. I’m not sure what his motive is.”
Luo Yin patted Gu Ruoyun’s shoulder and spoke with the air of a solemn vow: “No matter what, don’t worry. This is Azure Dragon Country, and my dad is one of the two generals defending it. The military power in his hands won’t lose to the power of that old man from the Gu family. No one dares to kill in front of my dad, as long as we’re in Azure Dragon Country.”
“That’s not necessarily true.”
The expression in Gu Ruoyun’s eyes turned grave: “This opponent is too strong, and for an expert of this level, it doesn’t matter how much military strength you have.”
Those who had never reached martial king would definitely not know how scary this rank was. Even if they faced a million heroic soldiers, he could kill them all, down to the very last man. However, for the sake of saving her, General Luo and Luo Yin hadn’t even hesitated in going against a martial king expert. Gu Ruoyun was extremely touched.
However, if only General Luo’s men could somehow hold him up, then they would have the hope of turning the tables around…
