Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Bastard! What did you say!” Shadow Six said angrily.
He knew that this guy was a little disgraceful, but he did not expect him to be so disgraceful. Xiao Zhenting was a man, so how he humiliated him was a matter between men. At most, it was a matter between the ministers of the two countries, but it was really too much to humiliate a woman with such indecent words.
This was not something a minister could say.
Shadow Six immediately pulled out his sword.
Helian Qi did not even look at him. He only reached out and accurately caught Shadow Six’s sword.
Shadow Six’s sword was firmly gripped. Shadow Six’s expression became very ugly. On the other hand, Helian Qi looked calm.
Although Shadow Six’s martial arts were not as good as Shadow Thirteen’s, he was still a top-notch expert. For Helian Qi to be able to subdue him so easily could only mean that Helian Qi was indeed capable.
Shadow Thirteen secretly circulated his internal energy.
Helian Qi sneered. “I advise you not to act rashly, or I’ll cripple his hand.”
Shadow Thirteen clenched his fists.
From the beginning to the end, Yan Jiuchao’s gaze landed on Helian Qi’s face. Whether he was spouting nonsense or had snatched Shadow Six’s sword, not a trace of emotion flashed across his eyes.
Helian Qi sneered. “Why aren’t you saying anything? Are you agreeing or not? You want the armor back, but you don’t want to pay the price… This won’t work. That’s not how logic works.”
Logic? Shadow Six almost spat in his face. Did this kind of beast have the right to say that?
“General Helian, are you serious?” Yan Jiuchao asked indifferently.
Helian Qi chuckled. “Of course I’m serious. I just don’t know how sincere you are, Young Master Yan. As everyone knows, Grand Marshal Xiao treats you like his own. For you, he hasn’t had a child of his own for so many years. Compared to your biological mother who only knows how to remarry, this stepfather seems to be much more practical. Why don’t you consider honoring him with this armor? When he’s gone, everything in the Xiao family will be yours.”
Shadow Thirteen clenched his fists tightly.
Helian Qi glanced at him. “Half-sacrificial soldiers? Is there no one around Young Master Yan? You actually left behind such trash. Do you want me to give you two sacrificial soldiers as a token of our sincerity?”
“You can try,” Yan Jiuchao threatened.
Helian Qi laughed and raised his hand to pat Yan Jiuchao’s shoulder. Yan Jiuchao glanced at him coldly and his arm paused.
He laughed and retracted his hand. He said to Yan Jiuchao, “I won’t force you. How about this? I’ll give you three days to consider. In three days, I will destroy the armor. Take care!”
With that, he let go of Shadow Six and strode out.
This person’s internal energy was indeed powerful. Half of Shadow Six’s arm was numb without him noticing.
Shadow Six rubbed his arm and cursed, “Damn old thing, I’ll kill him sooner or later!”
Shadow Thirteen’s expression was ugly.
Shadow Six was about to say something to him when he looked at Yan Jiuchao. “Young Master, don’t take Helian Qi’s words to heart…”
Yan Jiuchao said, “Don’t worry, I won’t be angered so easily.”
If a boor could anger him, he would have died of anger countless times over the years. Some people needed to be taught a lesson because they were born with it. It had nothing to do with whether he was angry or not.
If he wanted to court death, then he could not blame him.
Yan Jiuchao went downstairs.
After getting into the carriage, Shadow Six saw that Shadow Thirteen’s expression was not good. He took the initiative to pull the reins and asked Yan Jiuchao, “Young Master, are we going back to the manor now?”
“Enter the palace.”
In the past, it was always Shadow Thirteen who drove the carriage. Shadow Six’s driving skills were not as good as his, and it was a bumpy journey. Fortunately, Young Master did not care. After Yan Jiuchao alighted from the carriage, he went straight to the imperial study. Shadow Six stopped the carriage outside the palace gate.
“Hey, don’t take it to heart.” Shadow Six nudged Shadow Thirteen’s arm with his elbow. He understood why Shadow Thirteen minded. Shadow Thirteen was a sacrificial soldier. What he hated the most in his life was being scolded as a half-sacrificial soldier. This was no different from scolding someone for being neither male nor female.
Shadow Six continued, “What does that shit-mouthed guy know?”
Shadow Thirteen lowered his eyes and said, “He’s right. I’m a half-sacrificial soldier. I’m not as powerful as sacrificial soldiers.”
Shadow Six said, “You killed Xu Shao’s sacrificial soldiers.”
Shadow Thirteen said, “That’s just a group of the most basic sacrificial soldiers.”
Shadow Six opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort him. To be honest, he had also been a sacrificial soldier, but not as long as Shadow Thirteen. He was not as deeply influenced as Shadow Thirteen. On the surface, Shadow Thirteen accepted his current identity, but in his heart, he always minded that he was not strong enough. However, if he really became a sacrificial soldier through and through, he would not be the current Shadow Thirteen.
