The General's Daughter Doesn't Want to Get Married!-Chapter 109: Reason to Live

"Haha, so you were able to detect it after all. Yes, it’s a fine body for raising my cultivation, so I picked it up after she died, and used it diligently. It’s time to put all my hard work to good use, boy." Xia Ruoling snorted as she laughed at Yun Shu.

"Stop laughing, your mouth stinks." Yun Shu fanned her nose as she made a face at Xia Ruoling, angering her on purpose.

"You...!" Xia Ruoling blushed in anger as she saw how the guards and others were trying to press down their laughter.

Even Yun Si’s corner of mouth rose slightly as he coughed lightly, trying to keep his image intact.

"If you think you are that powerful, why don’t we fight to see who is the strongest?!"

"Is that so? Then how about you let it off now? Or is that you are determined to have a fight?" Yun Shu asked with a nonchalant voice.

"Well, wouldn’t it be good to use a strong body like yours? Honestly, I’ve been looking forward to getting that body, Young Lord." Xia Rouling gave off a shrewd laugh.

At once, Xia Ruoling’s lackey’s arrived at the place as they landed behind her, at least more than thirty men in black wearing long hoods. Yun Shu didn’t have that much of a good impression, only raising her eyebrows as she saw the dramatic entrance.

To say it honestly, no one was able to influence Yun Shu’s thoughts and emotions as much as Bai Yunxian could do. And Yun Shu also found this setting very interesting.

"What? Are you gonna fight? Or preparing to escape?" Yun Shu scoffed at Xia Ruoling, who in response frowned at her.

"Hmm, what if I say I want to devour you? Atta boy, don’t refuse and give in sweetly, okay?" Just as Xia Ruoling tried to sweet talk Yun Shu, she raised a hand to gesture. In the next moment, there was the sound of a loud bang behind Xia Ruoling.

In the next moment, a fight between two groups took place, while another team deployed to take the prisoners to a safe shelter.

"So you are going against me, is that it?" Xia Rouling said as she looked at Yun Shu with a twisted smile.

"Is there a reason for not going against you? It’s not like you are my guardian or parents, much less that I don’t listen to others’ rules anyway." Yun Shu said with confidence.

"My life works according to my rules, not by someone else’s."

The words Yun Shu said may sound haughty and arrogant, but they are the words that let Yun Shu live her life so freely till now. She never went side to side with the social norms, there was no other way.

That was also the reason she was revered as the Lord of the State regardless of her gender, a pride of the nation.

"Well, how about that boy beside you? Let me have him, and I’ll show mercy and let you leave." Xia Ruoling tried to negotiate with Yun Shu, because there was something in this young man that made her feel uneasy to attack him right away.

"Ahahahahah...!" Yun Shu’s crazy laughter filled the air after hearing Xia Ruoling’s words, as if something possessed her.

"Ha...! You want me to hand him over?" Yun Shu stopped her laughter as she looked at Xia Ruoling.

"He, who is the reason for my existence, my reason to live, you want me to hand him over to you?"

"...!!!"

While the Yun brothers were shocked, Bai Yunxian was shocked as tears came to his eyes once again.

’Am I... the reason for her existence?’

’Even if she said it casually, it makes me happy. I’m such a fool...’ Bai Yunxian mocked himself as he thought, he didn’t believe her words to be more than a fleeting sentence, because at that time, Bai Yunxian was still unaware of Yun Shu’s sacrifice, he only knew it after he held her cold, dead body into his chest tightly.

"How much time is left there, Chen Yi?" Yun Shu asked as she took a look at the man in black.

"Approximately two hours, Host."

"..."

"Looks like I’ll have to break my promise with him this time." Yun Shu didn’t show much emotion, just regretting a little as she turned back to look at Bai Yunxian, who had a puzzled and worried expression on his face.

"Your reward has been prepared, Host." Chen Yi said in an unusually solemn voice.

"Where is it?" Yun Shu opened her window bar to take a look.

"Is it referring to my blood?" Yun Shu asked, surprised by the instructions.

"Because you have a special body constitution, only your blood will work, Host." Chen Yi said as he looked at Yun Shu with complicated emotions in his eyes.

"Does it necessarily need blood drawn from the heart?"

"Because you have to die here to complete your mission, Host."

I see. That means the system administrator is telling me to quickly die and fuck off, is he?

Before Yun Shu went all out with Xia Ruoling, she walked over to Bai Yunxian, stroking his cheek as she faintly smiled.

"Sorry, it seems that I’ll be a little late to take you out. Can you wait a little?"

For some reason, Bai Yunxian had a bad feeling, as if he were to let Yun Shu go, he wouldn’t be able to see her anymore.

Just like how they last met when Yun Shu helped him escape from the Empire and went back, only to return as a cold corpse.

"My lord...! Can you, can you not go? Others can fight her as well, right? Please, My lord, don’t go. I beg you, My Lord!"
