Qing Guo Yingxiong Chapter 10

It was said, on the only bridge which led to the underworld, Meng Po1 had guarded it for several thousand years. Particularly for the pa.s.sing men and women with unfinished secular fate, giving them a bowl of Meng Po soup, to enable them to forget the events happening in the past, gaining a whole new blank memory.

When Duan Shun Jie regained his consciousness, for a moment he had the illusion of misorientation.

But when his line of sight fell on the standing by the window figure, his heart couldn’t help but become taut --- even if it was only a natural and spontaneous quick glance, he already could recognize that caused him to have this heartache back figure.

Wasn’t fortunate enough to drink the Meng Po’s soup, the him at the present was still the same cowardly weak and powerless self, still remained in the same cruel world which didn’t allowed him to make his feelings come true.

Maybe he could feel Duan Shun Jie’s gaze, the originally showing his back in front of the window Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng slowly turned his body. The magnificent radiance of the setting sun draped on his body, like the jade clothes sewn with golden thread to set off his perfect face and figure, it was as if he was not a person that belonged to this filthy mortal world.

The two people remained silent face to face for a while. Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng slowly walked to the bed side. Looking at his expresionless face closing in, Duan Shun Jie was ashamed and alarmed to the extreme. If not because of his limbs and his body was limp, numb and painful, he would have jumped out the bed and forced his way through to escape.

Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s expression was not the same as usual, he was looking at Duan Shun Jie in a strange mood, as if he was continuously pondering on something, it felt so much like this was the very first time he met the man in front of him.

“Why did you want to commit suicide? Also, who actually was the one who asked you to kill me?” But once he opened his mouth, that kind of stabbing straight to the sore spot bluntness let Duan Shun Jie realize that he was still the same kind of completely unaffected by other people’s feelings abominable evil man.

Unable to answer his questions, also couldn’t afford to meet his eyes, Duan Shun Jie could only choose to avoid him, wordlessly turned over his body to show his back to Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng. He was unable to meet that pair of s.n.a.t.c.hing away all of his love and devotion’s eyes.

Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng was not one to overlook nor spare2 : “Dispatched spies to follow you in hopes to catch a few of Pingnan’s surviving members, instead, they took back a dying at a not far away place person. If not because of me, by now you would not be in this world anymore. For this reason, you are still unwilling to tell me?”

So him still being alive was all the result of Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s wanted to make secret inquiries. Duan Shun Jie had the impulse to laugh bitterly.

The flaming pa.s.sionate feeling inside of him seemingly had been diluted by the poison he drank. The him at the present had been disheartened, to the point he didn’t want to speak even half of the word.

“Do not want to speak, do you?” Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng was forming an astonished like state raising one of his eye’s brows. Calm and unhurried, he sat on the bed, “In the Palace, there are many methods to make one open their mouth...”

Seeing Duan Shun Jie revealed a loathed expression, Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng slightly laughed and continued his speech: “But I also don’t want to use those methods, I still have another method to make you beg to tell me.”

Without saying anything anymore, Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng had leaned his body to pull open the covering on Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s body’s thin quilt3--- the quilt down, his body only had a piece of flimsy underclothes. Looking at Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng strecthing his hand to take off that piece of underclothes, Duan Shun Jie became anxious at once. Intending to push away Xuan Yuan’s hand but he realized he surprisingly didn’t have the strength even to move half of his finger.

“You...” He was angry as well as anxious, helplessly looking at Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng pulled down the underclothes to his knee.

Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s manner of speaking was extremely relaxed: “Oh, forgot to tell you! Even if the poison has been cleared, but there is still a little residue, in this two or three days, having your hands and legs paralysis, i’m afraid that it is unavoidable.”

While he spoke, he was taking off his outer robe and getting on the bed. Pulling Duan Shun Jie’s pair of legs and rounding them on his waist, the posture was extremely obscene and stirring.

Although his limbs were numb and hard to budge, Duan Shun Jie still could clearly feel the huge tip on his hip that placed on his backyard’s entrance. Watching him with calculated and unhurried steps4 directed his fingers to smear the scented oil, Duan Shun Jie had a driven into insanity kind of feeling.

Still unable to forget the humiliation from all of his dedicated feelings being trampled on and insulted, Duan Shun Jie couldn’t stand to be reclined in this posture under Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng, yet, he didn’t know how to prevent his impudent a.s.sault. His heart was burning with impatience, at this moment, even half of a complete sentence he couldn’t utter.

The att.i.tude appeared to be considerably in earnest, earnestly thrusting in Duan Shun Jie’s inner body, slowly slid in and out, upon seeing Duan Shun Jie revealing a gasping in dismay expression, Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng let out the seemingly having an accomplishment smiling face.

“Tell me, if not, I might call someone to come. I think Xiao Si Qi must really want to see you...” Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s evilness was the same as in the past. His hateful smiling face more or less had evoked a little of Duan Shun Jie’s will to resist.

“Don’t tell me you... Aren’t you more afraid than me about losing all your standing and reputation?” Feeling that Xuan Yuan’s filled with ill intention fingers pressing on the most sensitive spot in his inner part, Duan Shun Jie desperately tried to hold in his gasp, remained unable to complete his sentence.

Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s response was bursting out in haha laughter, “Duan Shun Jie ah Duan Shun Jie. You are said to be an adult, why are you still this naive! Letting Ouyang Si Qi know, what’s the big deal of it. She, for this lifetime, wouldn’t have the chance to spread out any unpleasant words about me!”

Upon hearing his speech, Duan Shun Jie’s heart violently gave a wrench, his face also turned to a ghastly pale. Among all the matters, Si Qi was the completely unfortunate one. Being involved in all of scheme between him and Xuan Yuan, consequently down from heaven, once a beloved daughter, reduced to today an abandoned wife.

“You can’t treat her like that! She is still conceiving your child. Treating her like that, don’t you feel you are being a little too cruel?” Duan Shun Jie, no matter what, wouldn’t be able to turn a blind eye for the suffering of his pitiful sister.

Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng laughed, taking out his fingers from the already slack open tunnel with a careless manner, in one go, he thrust in his already swelling and stiff s.e.x organ.

“Don’t you feel the you now still having the heart to mind about others is very laughable? Concentrate a little.” Patting Duan Shun Jie’s b.u.t.tocks, he appeared to not have the intention to discuss any longer, only minded to rock his waist to pursue the peak of pleasure.

Duan Shun Jie gritted his teeth in hopes of enduring the languid pleasure gus.h.i.+ng out from the inner part of his body, only this had already exhausted all of his strength, he had no strength left to discuss with Xuan Yuan about Ouyang Si Qi’s affairs.

The room was filled with the ambiguous panting and the sound of body rubbing together. Until Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng vigorously shot in his spurting hot bodily fluid into the depths of his body, until then the sound that nearly drove Duan Shun Jie to insanity could be said as quieted down.

Casually put in order his clothing, Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng also helped Duan Shun Jie to sit.

Two people intimately leaned closely against each other, Duan Shun Jie, in an instant, as if had a kind of illusion. It appeared as if he was still in that time, in the Yan’s family house, with Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng still being affectionately and pa.s.sionately in love, the time when they shared the sweetest sluggish moment after their lovemaking session.

His rationality immediately reminded him: Before his eyes was Datong’s Cruel Prince, Xuan Yuan. Not that warm and mysterious Yan Xi Cheng. Although harsh, yet, reality was reality. Even if he tried in every possible way to escape it, the reality still wouldn’t be changed.

“It could be said that we are husband and wife...” Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng unexpectedly spurted out a word that was so unlike him to say, “Towards each other apparently need not to be excessively with swords drawn and bows bent.5”

Duan Shun Jie felt that he was a bit strange, couldn’t help but shoot him a glance.

Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng only lightly laughed, then continued : “Now is exactly the time that our Datong is doing some recruitment. If I say I am willing to let you stay by my side, then, do you agree or not to lend your service to Datong?”

Never crossed his mind that he actually would raise this kind of preposition, Duan Shun Jie, taken by surprise, in an instant he was stunned on the spot.

“Don’t you want me to be kind to Ouyang Si Qi? As long as you give your consent, wanting me to accept her as my concubine is not a difficult matter. You also don’t have to feel guilty towards her all the time.”

The originally wanted to speak out refusal, instantly by Xuan Yuan’s suggestion was being swallowed back. Indeed, Pingnan’s decline was already irreversible, although turning to Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s camp was an unforgivable betrayal conduct, however, if by doing this he could give back his sister’s happiness, apparently this was not a bad deal at all.

Actually, toward Xuan Yuan’s deceitfulness, he was a little bit afraid. He honestly couldn’t understand how could this kind of Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng suggest this preposition.

Truly afraid that he would nod his head just like that, then afterwards, he would have to face the more miserable reality.

Looking at Duan Shun Jie’s hesitation, Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng of course knew what’s going on. He also didn’t utter any word, waiting for Duan Shun Jie to make up his mind and come to a decision.

Duan Shun Jie naturally would be hesitant. His status and Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s status was that of enemies, not friend at all, all the more, the present circ.u.mstances was already worst to the point it couldn’t get any worse anymore. Perhaps he really needed to give up the struggle, to see and wait if there was still a possibility to fight for the happiness of his one and only blood relative in this world.

Turning his head, looking at Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s smiling eyes, Duan Shun Jie’s heart was filled with bitterness. Maybe he had chosen the most suffering way, yet, to be able to stay by this person’s side even for a little while more, there was a kind of faint fascination to it.

Seeing that Duan Shun Jie slowly nodded his head, Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng let out a smile at once.

Since earlier he had known Duan Shun Jie unable to resist him, after all, he had loved him to the point he had no way to free himself, right?

Gently on the healthy and strong male body in his bosson printed a gentle kiss, Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng as if gave out an undefinite promise.

Three months after Datong attacked Ping’an, the formerly Pingnan’s Commander in Chief, presently the Lord of Pingnan, Duan Shun Jie, officially surrendered to Datong. Also, the formerly Pingnan’s Princess, Ouyang Si Qi also officially became among one of the Seventh Prince, Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng’s many concubines.

Lord of Pingnan’s surrender and changing side lifted a mighty uproar in all level of society. For quite some times, Duan Shun Jie, these three words had become the synonym of ungratefulness and shameless betrayal, to be everyone’s looked askance at. However, there was also several revolting armies, being afraid of Datong’s imposing momentum when they attacked Pingnan, surrendered to the imperial court on their own accord.

The unwilling to surrender several fairly equipped revolting armies, under the command of the Cruel Prince Xuan Yuan Xi Cheng and the originally Lord of Pingnan Duan Shun Jie joining hands together, many were being wiped off. For a period of time, the originally with each pa.s.sing day already declined Datong’s Empire as if gradually regained the vitality. Once again, emitted their noticable impossing Empire’s loftiness.
