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 . Alas, nobody could answer their doubts .
Lu Bu clapped, "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 has come 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 was completed . Li Feihong managed to squeeze the time to report a brief of events to the clan 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 and laying 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 plan 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 clan 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 clan 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 planned 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'm coming!"
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 glances 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 to lay 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 a large 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*
It landed precisely on the spot where Hua Shi wanted to place the stone right in front of her .
However …
"YOU STUPID BITCH! DON'T YOU FOOKING TOSS THE STONE!!"
"You're welcome!"
"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 playing 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 similar 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 stimulated 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 simulated 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 related to Tong's wellbeing . She could not ignore it or treat it as a joke .
"What happened to him that day?"
Hua Shi laughed, "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 flashed his red eyes at me and boom! My mind went blank . "
Friday also laughed, "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 . "
