Chapter 207


    Chapter 208 – Let Me Try That


    The group returned to Shangdang City in peace . All of them were summoned to the government hall to report everything they experienced .


    Lu Bu’s intimidation managed to squeeze the information from Li Feihong and his bodyguards . To their surprise, he did not mad about them losing to a monster . However, Lu Bu still beat them up until their faces turned into pig heads as they had attempted to conceal this information from him .


    His past experience with Tong taught Lu Bu that sorcery and superpower existed in this world . Thus, facing a monster and returned alive was a good achievement that was worth praising .


    Lu Bu also did not care about the Emperor Seal or the Emperor Sword . The lives of his men took priority .


    On the other hand, Ju Shou, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Zhang He had ugly faces when they heard that the monster took the Emperor Seal away .


    "Does the monster want to rule the country?"


    "Is she attracted to the jade?"


    Those were the questions they had in mind . s, nobody could answer their doubts .


    Lu Bu pped, "Anyway, we should not bother dwelling about that snake monster . Feihong also told us that she tried to talk to the group first, so I believe she hase in peace . Since she didn’t kill us, that means she didn’t want to be our enemy . We should be focusing on the war at hand . I’m going to pursue Liu Ping Army . Governor Ju, help me prepare the provision and other supplies . "


    Lu Bu’s rare wisdom pulled everyone’s attention back from the monster, which made his subordinates looked at him in shock .


    ’Does Fengxian have a monster fetish?’ Zhang Liao thought .


    ’Boss is smart?’ Gao Shun puzzled .


    ’He can think?’ Li Feihong doubted .


    "What are you looking at? Go prepare my troops, you scums!" Lu Bu roared at his officers .


    ...


    October 26th .


    The preparation to mobilize waspleted . Li Feihong managed to squeeze the time to report a brief of events to the n chat .


    Li Feihong: Jinyang Army, Zhang He, and Ju Shou have repelled the Imperial Army .


    Li Feihong: Wang Kuang is dead . Jinyang Army is chasing after Zhang Yang .


    Li Feihong: Anything happens in the north?


    Li Feihong: Where is Julu Army right now?


    Dong Bai: We haven’t fought with Liu Ping yet .


    Dong Bai: We’re two days away from Nie County .


    Dong Bai: BTW, our scouts spotted Liu Ping and his men in the city .


    Dong Bai: We’re digging traps andying an ambush in the perimeter ATM .


    Ding Yuan: The border is clear . Xiangnu didn’t interfere with our fight .


    Ding Yuan: Jinyang is still peaceful .


    Zhang Bao: Yellow Turban Army is at Zhongshan right now .


    Zhang Bao: Liang is negotiating with the governor of the city .


    Zhang Bao: I think Zhen Yi will surrender .


    Zhang Jiao: Well done, Bao .


    Zhang Jiao: I’m reporting too . Julu is still peaceful .


    Zhang Jiao: My spy reports said Yuan Shao and Liu Yan are gathering troops .


    Zhang Jiao: They probably n to mobilize in spring .


    Li Feihong: What about Tong?


    Zhang Tong: I’m fine .


    Zhang Tong: Just survived the siege at Liyang yesterday .


    Zhang Tong: I secured Xu Huang . Another general getto!


    Li Feihong: HAXXXX


    Dong Bai: Reeeeeee


    Hua Shi: Poor Cao Mengde .


    Hua Shi: You have stolen three of his five elite generals .


    Hua Shi: How can he survive without them now?


    A smile appeared on Li Feihong’s pig face which terrified his bodyguards . He was happy that everyone had a positive attitude even though the situation was stressful .


    The n chat was being used as it was supposed to be for the first time . Instead of spamming nonsense to kill time, everyone exchanged their intelligence and the movements in other locations .


    Li Feihong believed that once Tong recruited more members or dragged in Jia Xu and Ju Shou into the group, the chat would be livelier .


    From the info of Dong Bai in the n chat, Liu Ping and his men had reached Nie County which located between Jinyang and Shangdang City .


    ’We’re also busy . My scouts detected a trail of enemy cavalry units . They are heading north . ’


    In his hands, the scouts from both Shangdang Army and Jinyang Army had given him reports as they spotted Zhang Yang’s troops . They were moving to the north with their cavalry units .


    "Are you done, Feihong? We’re moving . " Zhang Liao called him, pulling him back from his thought .


    Lu Bu did not waste any time . As soon as he had learned that the scouts found traces of the Imperial Army remnants, he ordered the chase with his entire 50,000 men . He nned to rush north to Nie County within two or three days .


    Zhang Liao and Li Feihong were in the middle of the mobilization . They had to leave Shangdang City now .


    "Sorry, sorry! I’ming!"


    Zhang He and Ju Shou sent them off at the north gate . Shangdang Army did not move along with Jinyang force as they had to remain in Shangdang to appease the citizens and maintain the order in the city .


    Cleaning the aftermath of a battle was hard work .


    Still, both of them gazed at the departing army in solemn even though they did not like Lu Bu . As servants of the same lord, they prayed for Jinyang Army’s victory .


    The struggle at Shangdang was over, but the battle of Jinyang was about to begin .


    ...


    South of Jinyang City, forty kilometers north of Nie County .


    Friday in Xiao Wu’s outer appearance was digging trenches along with Julu soldiers, who could not stop sneaking nces at her . Although she wore customized iron armor for female, her busty body still attracted everyone’s attention .


    Fortunately, all of them knew about her status as Tong’s concubine, so no one was stupid enough toy a hand on her . Secondly and most importantly, they knew about one terrifying secret of Xiao Wu that stopped them from the silly thought .


    At the moment, Friday was lifting arge boulder at the size of a modern bike with her left hand . She did not hold it above her shoulder or carry it behind her back .


    She lifted it with her finger grip like a bowling ball .


    "Friday, I need a few more over here," Shouted Hua Shi who was arranging the rolling boulder traps .


    "OKAY, CATCH!"


    Friday hurled the stone toward Hua Shi’s direction .


    *BOOM*


    Itnded precisely on the spot where Hua Shi wanted to ce the stone right in front of her .


    However ...


    "YOU STUPID BITCH! DON’T YOU FOOKING TOSS THE STONE!!"


    "You’re wee!"


    "I DID NOT THANK YOU!"


    "I meant, sorry . I missed!"


    "DAFUQ DO YOU MEAN YOU MISSED!? IT LANDED LIKE 2CM AWAY FROM MY BOOBS! I CAN EVEN FEEL THE WIND HITTING MY FACE!"


    "I was aiming at the spider on your chest!"


    Hua Shi looked down . There was indeed a baby forest spider on her cloth . Strangely, it seemed to tremble in fear .


    As usual, the two mental wives of Tong continued ying dangerous pranks on each other on a daily basis . Usually, it was Hua Shi who bullied Friday in the little Dong Bai body at home . However today, Friday had the upper hand as she was in her adult form, so she paid back her debt with interests .


    Although the pranks were always risky and deadly in ordinary people’s eyes, to them who literally had been to Hell, a near-death experience was nothing but a fart with an extra golden nugget .


    The two psychopaths continued working "peacefully" as they were finding an opportunity to get back on the other .


    Meanwhile, Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu kept their distance from the women as they contributed to the ambush preparation .


    "Do you think Zou Shi will turn into one of them?" Zhang Ji asked his nephew .


    Zhang Xiu shook his head, "Give up, uncle . She has a simr aura as theirs, and she hangs out with these girls . It’s a matter of time when she will turn into one of them . "


    Tears welled in Zhang Ji’s eyes as he gave up to his fate . He remembered how scary Zou Shi was when she was angry or when she demanded something from him .


    "I wish I’m single for life . " Cried Zhang Ji .


    ...


    October 26th, 7 PM .


    In the restricted tent where Hua Shi and Friday rested together, Hua Shi sat cross legs and meditated as Friday instructed . Friday was teaching Hua Shi a method to gain demonic wings .


    Since Friday knew that Tong had infected Hua Shi with his semen and blood, she would likely to turn into a demon like Tong soon . In preparation for such event, Friday imparted her knowledge to Hua Shi to prevent her from losing control to her [Sins] . She had begun teaching Hua Shi after Tong left for Ye City as they had nothing to do at night .


    "You’re sure I can grow wings? Why am I not feeling anything?" Asked Hua Shi .


    "It normally takes years to get the first pair . Besides, you’ve only been infected for a year . It usually takes 20 years to get your first wing . " Friday gave her instruction while she was also meditating alongside with Hua Shi .


    "But didn’t Tong get his wings this year? He is only 17 if I remember correctly . "


    "I’m surprised, too . I think somebody or an otherworlder had stimted his [Sins] to the point that all of them awakened . It’s fortunate that he didn’t go berserk . "


    "Berserk?"


    "Our [Sins] are our heart devils . Everybody is born with at least seven or eight of them . Once our demon blood matured, they will appear and attempt to take control of our body and soul . When we lose control of our body, that’s when we go berserk . Imagine a lunatic taking over your body and use it as he sees fit . "


    Hua Shi’s body trembled as she was afraid of losing her body to an unknown being . As she simted the scenario where she lost control of her body, she recalled the event when Tong acted weird .


    "I think he went berserk . There was a day that he looked into my eyes and my consciousness blurred . By the times I woke up again, he has already inseminated me to the point that my stomach bloated . "


    Friday squinted her eyes . If it were the usual time, she might have thought that Hua Shi was bragging . However, the topic of the conversation was rted to Tong’s wellbeing . She could not ignore it or treat it as a joke .


    "What happened to him that day?"


    Hua Shiughed, "He summoned me to his bedroom while he was sitting on the bed and looking at his crack . I thought he was addicted to sex, but he shed his red eyes at me and boom! My mind went nk . "


    Friday alsoughed, "Ah, that’s probably [Lust] . You’re lucky that it was his [Lust] and not [Wrath] or [Gluttony] . Or else, you would have been dead . "


    "But hasn’t he awakened [Lust] first? I thought it was his strong trait . "


    "There’s another trick I haven’t told you yet . There’s a shortcut to tame our [Sins], but we’ll have to allow them to take over our body first . Once we regain our sense, the [Sins] that has attempted to take our body will be weakened to the point that it’s so easy to tame . "


    "Hey! Why haven’t you told me this before!? I would have used that method instead of sitting all day doing nothing . "


    "Listen, hoe! I literally turned into a monster during the berserk period! I even wasted over a million year to get my wings this way . "


    "But Tong regained his sense in a night . "


    "That’s . . . odd . But hey, you and Tong are different . Do you really want to gamble?"


    Hua Shi smirked and looked at her stomach, "After this child grows up a bit, let me try that . "
