Chapter 241: Execution

Chapter 241: Execution

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

The poker-faced Gong Qianyu walked straightly past the young man without taking a glance at him, and kept striding towards the fierce battlefield emotionlessly…

The young man was no longer vexed by Gong Qianyu’s ignorance. He then turned around to look at the fighting soldiers, and ordered in a cold tone, “Kill them all!”

“Aye!” responded the soldiers in deep voices. They slashed in a fiercer and faster way, among whom a figure dressed in light purple appeared vaguely…

All of a sudden, Gong Qianyu halted his steps, looked up, and saw the beautiful face of Murong Xue. He widened his eyes to confirm– it was her indeed!

“Stop! Nobody move!”

On hearing the cold order, the soldiers stopped, and looked doubtfully at Gong Qianyu.

But he only fixed his gaze on Murong Xue and put on a gentle smile, his clear dark eyes mirrored pureness and unsophistication…

“Your Highness.” the young general couldn’t help reminding Gong Qianyu who spoke nothing, only staring at Murong Xue and Murong Ye.

Interrupted by the general, Gong Qianyu knitted his dashing eyebrows and squinted at the armor on Murong Ye. He then growled with a furious glare, “Let go of them!”

To his shock, the young general looked at Gong Qianyu apprehensively and responded, “Your Highness, they are from Qingyan military camp. Setting them free will bring about danger. I don’t think we should let go of them…”

He didn’t dare finish his sentence for a tremble of fear came over him when he sensed the piercing gaze of Gong Qianyu.

“Let them go.” said Gong Qianyu in a commanding one.

“Aye!” Soldiers from Nanjiang were frightened to hear that, so they sheathed their swords, and gave way quietly by moving aside.

Murong Ye was confused by Gong Qianyu’s decision: we were sworn enemies of his kingdom, so he should have either killed us now, or had us tied up to pillars in front of his military camp. How come Gong Qianyu just let go of us that easily…

“Let’s get out of here.” Murong Xue said calmly and took a glance at Gong Qianyu. She turned around and strolled backwards, sighing to herself that she would owe him another favor each time they met…

Gong Qianyu looked inexpressibly mysterious and noble, standing in the forest with his hands clasped behind his back and his dark sleeves fluttering. Staring at Murong Xue’s receding figure, his dark eyes lit up…

Noticing Gong Qianyu had focused only on Murong Xue and Murong Ye, the young general narrowed his eyes. He took out a bow and instantly put an arrow on it before he shot mercilessly at Murong Xue’s back…

The sound of slicing the air burst upon Murong Xue’s ears, she turned around immediately and saw a sharp arrow dashing towards her, too swiftly to be dodged…

She frowned and was about to avoid the shot at her heart. However, at this very moment, Gong Qianyu appeared, waving his hand fiercely, from which a curved flame broke out. It burnt the approaching arrow completely and its edge mercilessly swept across the neck of the young general.

Only a tearing sound could be heard before the young general froze, maintaining his archery posture. After a moment, he collapsed on the ground, with his indignant eyes wide open…

“As I said, let go of them!” the sullen Gong Qianyu said word by word. Soldiers reverberated with the echo of his order, lowering their heads with no courage to take a deep breath.

As a commander of the troops, what His Highness said was the command that had to be obeyed. According to military rules, the general deserved an execution since he acted otherwise publicly.

“Miss Murong, Young Master!” there came a pleasantly surprised voice. Murong Xue looked up and saw Wuhen walking towards her hurriedly.

Behind him strode Ouyang Shaochen in white, with a mysterious look on his face…

“Your Master, are you alright?” Wuhen was a bit shocked to see Murong Ye supported by Murong Xue.

Murong Ye smiled unnaturally, and answered, “Just a few scratches on my leg, which made me have trouble walking now. But it’s nothing serious…”

Wuhen nodded and said in a low voice, “Miss Murong, allow me to support His Master.”

“Okay!” nodded Murong Xue, and she allowed Wuhen to take care of Murong Ye instead. Wuhen was taller and stronger than her, so Murong Ye would definitely feel more comfortable with his support than hers.

Ouyang Shaochen walked to Murong Xue and couldn’t help feeling surprised, holding her hands, “Looks like you’ve kept yourself miraculously unharmed, it doesn’t make sense…”

Murong Xue suddenly turned sullen, “What makes sense? Come on, I rarely get hurt. I made it here shortly after we separated in the forest. But the two of you have been trapped in the forest for such a long time. Did you get in big trouble?”

“Just toxic fog and woods, as well as man-eating swamps, nothing serious…” Ouyang Shaochen gave an understatement and strolled forward, holding Murong Xue’s hand…

“Since it’s not a big deal for you, please be our guide…” Murong Xue put on a weird smile. Toxic fog and woods, as well as swamps were invisible killing traps. Chances were that one would sink into the swamp even before he met toxic fog and woods, because swamps were everywhere in the forest. Ouyang Shaochen had just passed by a small one, and she didn’t believe he could avoid all of them…

“My pleasure!” nodded Ouyang Shaochen, dragging Murong Xue into the forest.

Gong Qianyu stood still, looking a bit upset, watching their receding figures with holding hands…

Murong Xue strode forward in the forest without any obstacles. Two minutes later, she reached the edge of the forest. Through the thick trees, the anxious faces of General Zhang and vice generals could even be seen.

Twitching her lips, Murong Xue was taken aback: Ouyang Shaochen managed to distinguish swamps from hard grounds, and made it to the destination in the right way, despite the fact that it was the first time he had ever entered the forest…

Standing outside the forest, General Zhang suddenly caught sight of Murong Ye supported by Wuhen. He rushed to them, and asked, “Murong Ye, thank god you’re alright. Where are the others?”

Murong Ye suddenly turned sullen and whispered, “I’m the only survivor…”

When General Zhang heard him say that, the delighted look on his face faded away. Looking at the dusty forest, he sighed heavily. He knew that could happen, but his heart still sank when he heard the sad news from Murong Ye…

“It’s good to have you back. In those traps, how did they…?” General Zhang asked about how Murong Xue and Ouyang Shaochen died.

“We struggled through those traps…” whispered Murong, looking unprecedentedly sullen…
