Chapter 561
If you want to kill me, just kill me! There is no need to waste words! Even if I die, you will not escape! Liu Biao remained unyielding despite being caught by Liu Mang.
Did you really kill Yi Er? Liu Mang asked. Out of the hundred corpses on the floor, at least half of them were killed by Liu Mang. His armor was soaked red with blood, giving off the impression of a person with heavy killing intent.
Not only did I kill that s.l.u.t! I even tore out that vile sp.a.w.n from her stomach! It really looks like you! Liu Biao replied malevolently.
Argh! Liu Mang roared in anger as his gripped tightened. His clear eyes started to turn red again.
Milord! You must not fall in any deeper! Guan Hai warned and held Liu Mangs shoulder. He was worried that Liu Mang would fall into another trance. While it was a good way to become stronger, there was also a possibility of losing ones mind and killing people indiscriminately. What is the point of becoming stronger if he cannot use his power?
Liu Biao! Do not force me! Liu Mang said angrily.
Force you? Haha! What about it? Pa.s.s down my orders! This False King must not leave! Liu Biao suddenly shouted.
If you want to die, I will help you! Liu Mangs eyes fully turned red as he started to choke Liu Biao.
Liu Biao started to cough as his face turned red. He then started to struggle, following his bodys instincts to stay alive.
Milord! Guan Hai tried to wake Liu Mang but Liu Mang could not hear Guan Hai. He only wanted to kill.
Dont do it! Huang She shouted. He no longer cared about his own injury when he saw Liu Biaos situation. Liu Biao was his guarantee for his successful career. If Liu Biao were to be killed by Liu Mang, he would not be able to get promoted. After all, the Cai Family and the Kuai Family were still around. Until Liu Biao personally gave the order, these two families still had their authority. The two families could ally with each other and the Huang Family would get nothing.
Liu Biao must not die. At the very least, he must survive until the Cai Family and the Kuai Family were dealt with. Otherwise, not only would Huang Shes dreams be crushed but the two families would even come out to deal with him.
The Lady is not dead! Huang She shouted, disregarding his own pain.
Hm? Liu Mangs eyes started to return to normal.
Get lost! Help me over there! Huang She said to Liu Biaos men with a foul mood. These guards had been prepared to kill him earlier so Huang She did not have a good impression of them.
Hurry up and help me over! Huang She shouted. As their commander Liu Biao was taken hostage, Huang She, the highest ranking official was in charge. The soldiers naturally had to listen to Huang She.
A few guards helped Huang She to the front while the others that had been surrounding Liu Mang gave way.
Liu Mang. Your Yi Er is not yet dead. Let go of the Lord! Huang She shouted.
Liu Mang turned to look at Huang She. She is not dead? In his emotional state, Liu Mangs grip tightened, making Liu Biao suffer more.
Yes! She is not dead! Men! Come and bring the Lady here! Huang She quickly shouted to his subordinates.
Yes! His subordinates replied. Huang She learned about Lady Cais survival from his subordinates.
Soon, a carriage arrived through the front gate of the Xiangyang Prison. The curtain of the carriage was lifted and a woman walked down.
Yi Er! Liu Mangs eyes grew wide. His reddish eyes returned to normal as he inadvertently let go of Liu Biao. After falling to the ground, Liu Biao also ended up getting stepped on by Liu Mang.
Liu Mang was not mistaken. The woman that appeared was Lady Cai.
Huang She! Liu Biao glared angrily as he felt the humiliation of being stepped on by Liu Mang.
Milord. Guan Hai breathed a sigh of relief as Liu Mang had returned to his senses. If Liu Mang had fallen, Guan Hai would have no choice but to accompany him. Is this that Yi Er? He looked at Lady Cai. Her appearance seemed matching for his Lord.
Guan Hai. Watch Liu Biao. Liu Mang ordered as he kicked Liu Biao towards Guan Hai.
Dont worry Milord! Guan Hai nodded. He lifted Liu Biao and put a sword to his neck.
Yi Er! Liu Mang called out as he approached Lady Cai. There were so many things he wanted to say to her.
Do not come any closer! Liu Biaos guards blocked Liu Mangs way.
Hm? Liu Mang frowned. Step aside!
Step aside! Quickly! Do you want the Lord to die? Huang She shouted. As Liu Biao was still in Liu Mangs hands, the guards eventually gave way to Liu Mang. They looked as though they were escorting Liu Mang.
Liu Mang approached Lady Cai and the two stared at each other lovingly.
You s.l.u.t! Liu Biao felt anger when he saw the two gaze at each other.
Quiet! Guan Hai ordered. He did not care about Liu Biaos position. He only listened to his Lord, Liu Mang.
Lord Husband Lady Cai also had many things she wanted to say to Liu Mang but she could only say these two words. It was something Liu Mang asked her to address him as when they had s.e.x as it would make them feel closer.
Liu Mang felt unbearably happy when Lady Cai finally called him that. Yi Er. I am here to take you away.
Liu Mang was excited. Just hearing Lady Cai call him Lord Husband had made the whole trip worth it. He excitedly stepped forward to take Lady Cais hand.
You s.l.u.t! Liu Biao shouted again with a voice full of blame. Lady Cai hesitated the moment she heard this. She was afraid that she would really ended up following Liu Mang had no one stop her.
Lady Cai took a deep breath and closed her eyes for a moment. When she reopened her eyes, it was cold and withouut any traces of affection.
Hm? Yi Er, whats wrong? Liu Mang asked, noticing her cold gaze.
Let go of my Lord Husband. Lady Cai said coldly as she looked straight at Liu Mang.
What are you saying? Arent I right here? I am here to take you and your child away! I will take you to Yangzhou and give you a happy life. Liu Mang said as he stepped forward to take Lady Cais hand.
However, he was stopped by Lady Cai. Your Highness. Please conduct yourself with dignity.
Im Impossible. Liu Mang was in shock and disbelief. He did not mind being called Your Highness by others but not by Lady Cai.
Your Highness. Please let go of my husband. Lady Cai repeated in a cold manner. It was the same manner of speaking as when Lady Cai first met Liu Mang.
Are you treating me as a stranger? Liu Mang lowered his head as he laughed bitterly. He understood that Lady Cai was not calling him Lord Husband.
Why is it this way? Where is our friends.h.i.+p? Liu Mang asked. He wanted Lady Cai to give him an answer.
Your Highness, please watch your tongue. Your Highness and I have no relations.h.i.+p with each other.
What about those days at Jingshan? Have you forgotten them?
I have not forgotten. Those are just flings. Lady Cai replied.
Flings! Liu Mangs eyes grew wide in disbelief. She was just having a fling with him? Liu Mang wanted an answer but Lady Cais eyes gave him his answer. Her cold expression confirmed his disbelief.
Liu Mang wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. He was the great King of Shu, the Lord of Yangzhou. Yet he was just a person to have a fling with to others.
Liu Mang turned silent for a long time. When he looked back up, his eyes showed his desolated feelings. Lady Cai wanted to tell Liu Mang that this was a lie but she could not.
What about the child? Liu Mang could forget about Lady Cai but he could not forget about his own child.
Child? The guards were in an uproar after hearing Liu Mangs words. They initially thought the King of Shu fancied Liu Biaos wife which was the reason Liu Biao turned against him. After all, Lady Cai was the most beautiful woman in Jingzhou. Yet now they found out there was a child? This meant that Lady Cai and the King of Shu already did it together.
A child? There is no child. Lady Cai shook her head.
Impossible. Xiao Cui would not lie to me. If this was the case, this entire scenario would not have happened at all.
Before Lady Cai could explain, Huang She started to say the names of the ingredients for the medicine for abortion.
Hearing the names of the ingredients, Liu Mangs expression darkened. He staggered back and spat out a bit of blood. You You are so cruel. Liu Mang said as he pointed at Lady Cai.
Brother Guan. What is that medicine? Zhou Cang was puzzled.
That medicine is for abortion. Guan Hai explained. He knew this because he once commanded the Yellow Turbans. The Yellow Turbans were composed of common people. The Yellow Turban Rebellion started due to the corrupted government. Taxes were so high and there were natural disasters. The exploited people had to turn to begging. They could barely feed themselves so how could they feed their children? That was why many of them were looking for abortion. Instead of letting their children suffer, it was better for their children to reincarnate into a well to do family.
Ah! Does that mean that the Little Lord died before he was born? Zhou Cang was astounded.
Release my Lord Husband and we will let you leave Jingzhou! Lady Cai said to Liu Mang. She was now on the side opposing Liu Mang.
You want Liu Biao? What is the time now? Liu Mang wiped off the blood from his mouth and suddenly asked something unrelated.
Lady Cai stared in confusion when someone beside her quickly replied. It is almost evening.
Liu Mang turned to Liu Biao. Liu Biao. We will release you. Will you let us go as well?
Liu Biao was initially unyielding because he had never experienced death. However, now that he had just narrowly escaped with his life, he was no longer unyielding and quickly gave his approval.
In that case, we will have the Lord of Jingzhou follow us out of the city and out of Jingzhou, then we will let him go. Liu Mang said to Lady Cai and Huang She.
Impossible! Lady Cai immediately rejected. What if you take my Lord Husband with you?
Thats right? What if you go back on your promise and not return the Lord? Huang She agreed.
Liu Mang laughed, knowing that his first proposal would not be accepted. Then how about he follow us until the outer city? This isnt too much to ask right?
The outer city? Alright. Lady Cai agreed. The outer city was still within the walls of Xiangyang.
Haha. Liu Mang laughed like a madman. n.o.body noticed how bitter his smile was. In the end, Liu Mang was just showering affection to an uninterested party. There was no way Lady Cai would have abandoned Jingzhou.
Guan Hai! Zhou Cang! Since we are not welcome in Jingzhou, let us leave! Liu Mang shouted to the two.
Yes! Guan Hai and Zhou Cang nodded. They dragged Liu Biao with them as they went towards Liu Mang. Be obedient or we will kill your Lord!
The entire group then went towards the outer city with Guan Hai and Zhou Cang leading the way and Liu Mang pulling Liu Biao. They were followed by several thousand people.
We have arrived at the outer city. Let go of my Lord Husband. Lady Cai said coldly.
Do you care about your Lord Husband so much? Liu Mang asked as he turned around. Lady Cai did not reply. Since you care about him so much, I will return him to you! Liu Mang suddenly threw Liu Biao towards the crowd.
Save the Lord! Huang She shouted the moment Liu Biao was thrown. He did not want Liu Biao to suffer the same fate as himself.
Four people managed to catch Liu Biao with great difficulty. However, Liu Biao was old so he still broke a few bones in the process.
Relay my orders! Close all the city gates! Kill them! Kill them all! Liu Biao gave the order before he even stood up. n.o.body noticed the tears falling from Lady Cais face.
Old man Liu Biao. I knew you would go back on your word! Liu Mang looked at Liu Biaos troops indifferently.
However, you still cannot kill me! Liu Mang laughed.
What is that? Suddenly, one of Liu Biaos guards pointed at the sky behind Liu Mang.
