Chapter 228 – Fighting Dong Zhuo

Meanwhile, Pengcheng County, southwest of Xiapi Commandery City .

A young girl with loose robe was abandoned in this town in the middle of a slum area . She had long black hair and black eyes like the natives, but her unique Japanese-style oval face made her different than everybody else in this era .

This girl was Liu Yang, the eight-wing goddess who followed after Medusa into this dimension . As she was caught by Zuo Ci, she spent her days mostly in his lightning cage, getting tortured endlessly by the unreasonable old man .

Her abysmal luck relapsed again as Lilim stripped her angelic power without hearing about her reason for being here . Zuo Ci was also worse, he dumped her in the middle of nowhere and flew away without telling her anything .

In her eyes, Zuo Ci was a hypocritical bullying cultivator who enjoyed torturing weaker immortals . Lilim was also a power-crazed dictating bitch that was lucky to be borne by the first generation parent .

"Damn them! Damn them all!"

Liu Yang cried alone in a slum, attracting the eyes of several beggars and hoodlums .

"Hey, is that girl kinda look ugly?"

"Yes, she's ugly, but her skin is nice . She can still be sold . "

"Yeah, she should fetch a good price if we sell her to the lords . "

"Right, let's take her!"

The crying of the little Liu Yang attracted the thugs in the slum . Seeing that her skins and her appearance were unique, they wanted to kidnap and sell her as a slave to the nobles .

They jumped at her, using a rice sack to cover her from the top down . With the girl in the sack, they carried her back to the local black market .

Liu Yang attempted to resist, but she could not do anything as her celestial power had been erased by the system . She could only cry a muffled voice inside the sack to struggle and annoy the kidnappers .

It did not take long for the thugs to reach a shady building inside the slum . They took off the sack and threw her inside a cell .

"How much do we get?"

"She's ugly! 100 Coins, no bargain!"

"200! She's clean and untouched!"

"I said, no bargain! One hundred, take it or leave it!"

"Tsk!"

The thugs took the coins and left, leaving Liu Yang and the slave merchant behind .

In the building, there was only the merchant and several rectangular cells with many children and women inside . The cage, which Liu Yang was in, was a one-cubic-meter animal cage .

Liu Yang looked around in a panic as she found out that she was in an underground slave house .

"You're lucky, ugly one . Someone has pre-ordered 20 little girls, and you're going along with the caravan," The merchant mocked her and kicked her cell, "Don't scream, don't cry, and don't piss or shit until I tell you to!"

Luo Yang Northern Gate, neutral ground between two forces .

Dong Zhuo sat on his horse, with Hua Xiong riding beside him . All weapons had been temporarily put away for safety .

Diao Chan, Liu Yu, the confused Wang Yun, and a dozen bodyguards arrived after the other party .

Wang Yun had regained his sense as the devil contract was voided by the loss of demonic power . Even though he was lighted-head as if he woke up after the heavy drinking, he was flexible enough to catch the clues about the recent events and followed through with the trends .

Diao Chan sat on the wagon throne while Wang Yun and Liu Yu stood by her sides . The guards with weapons in hands also stared at Dong Zhuo and Hua Xiong without blinking .

With five people presented beside the guards, they began their agenda and their negotiation .

Diao Chan started, "Lord Dong Zhuo, I'll be frank . Emperor Ping is likely to die in the war . He has already sent the decree that I'll be the next Empress so it cannot be changed . But I can still return your position as the Prime Minister and pardon all of your previous crimes . Will you be my subject?"

Dong Zhuo and the others were astonished by the bold proposal by the little girl . Had they not seen her standing in mid-air before, they would have dismissed her words as a child's nonsense .

Seeing is believing, they could not ignore the words of the proved Child of Heaven .

'I should have taken Li Ru with me . Well, whatever . Bargaining with a little snort is easier than dealing with these two fools . '

Dong Zhuo coughed, "My apology, Your Majesty, if I call you right . Your offering is a bit unfair to me . You see, I've gone to war and came back battered, yet the citizens of Henei suddenly revolted . I have to deal with them using my force, or they will look down on the Imperial Army . I have done nothing wrong to be pardoned . "

"I'm not accusing you . Lord Dong Zhuo, I'm making my proposal to reinstate you into the position and clean your records as long as you will serve me . I will only take a [Yes] or [No] as an answer . What do you say?"

Dong Zhuo frowned . The girl had a politician's sense that he could not trick her .

"Then, I'll also be frank with you, Your Majesty . I don't know how you can sit on the throne without an official coronation ceremony . I don't see the reason that you should be the Empress of our country at all . You are too young for this, so leave it to the adult and go play with your friends . I can treat you like a royalty if you surrender that throne to me . How about it?"

Liu Yu and Wang Yun's face reddened as the veins under their facial skin pulsed rapidly . They gritted their teeth and wanted to curse this ambitious fatty out loud, but they held back their words as they knew that it could affect the negotiation .

Diao Chan stared at Dong Zhuo in silent, thinking of how she should do in this situation . This fat man would not back down until he became the emperor of a new dynasty .

A sadistic grin appeared at the corner of Diao Chan face .

'I may be powerless, but I can still use my mental attack . '

"Let's return, father, Sir Liu . The negotiation has failed . "

Dong Zhuo also heard Diao Chan's remark . He laughed as if he mocked her .

"Oh? Do you want to fight? Sure! Let's fight it out . It's simple this way . "

Diao Chan turned back and glared at the fat dictator . Her full-power killing intent locked on him, and the aura of an ex-eight-wing devil pressed on Hua Xiong and Dong Zhuo .

The two victims of the oppressing killing intent began sweating profusely even though it was already winter . Dong Zhuo felt suffocate as he could not control his chest and lung to breath .

The horse of the two neighed as they were panicked, kicking and wailing . Without the ability to control their horses, Dong Zhuo and Hua Xiong panicked as well . The two horses without the control of the masters ran back to the army behind them as they were scared by the killing intent .

Hua Xiong stared at Diao Chan in astonishment .

'That was an elite warrior's killing intent! But she is only a snorty wench? Is this a joke?'

Meanwhile, Dong Zhuo's condition was not as good as Hua Xiong . His right fist kept smashing on his chest as he could not breathe . As he choked, Dong Zhuo's complexion paled while his snort and drool dripped from his mouth .

'Not good! She wants to kill the lord using her aura alone!'

Hua Xiong attempted to pull the reign and make his horse rush to Diao Chan and the others, but his horse did not follow after his command . Feeling helpless, he leaped off his horse and dashed toward Diao Chan with his halberd .

Liu Yu, Wang Yun, and Diao Chan's bodyguards noticed the incoming general . They shouted, "Protect Her Majesty!"

Diao Chan also clicked her tongue . She switched her aura target to Hua Xiong .

Anxiety and fear overwhelmed the charging general, yet he did not stop rushing forward .

"Petty trick!" He shouted as he swung his polearm, killing the soldiers who rushed to help the group .

Hua Xiong roared as he dove into the oncoming bodyguards, "ALL UNITS, ATTACK!"

Dong Zhuo's elite soldiers heard the command of their general . They relayed the order to everybody in the back, and the trebuchets began hurling stones .

The siege began!

Diao Chan did not stop oppressing Hua Xiong with her mental attack, which made his body sluggish by the fear he was experiencing . The bodyguards used this chance to thrust their spears at the isolated general .

"Humph!"

With one halberd swing, Hua Xiong deflected all incoming spears . He took five steps back to create a distance while he did not lose sight of Diao Chan .

"Die, witch!"

Like an Olympic athlete, Hua Xiong threw his halberd like a javelin, aiming at the little girl .

*POEK*

The halberd missed its target and killed a bodyguard in front of her instead . Because of the weight of the halberd and the different balance between the shaft and the blade tip, it could not be thrown like a straight javelin .

Seeing that he missed, Hua Xiong retreated back to his lord, hoping that Dong Zhuo had not died from the mental attack yet .

Liu Yu and Wang Yun sighed a relief after the threat had passed . They checked their little empress if she was fine .

They became panic again .

Diao Chan was bleeding from her eyes and nose as she had over-exerted her mental power with her human body . She collapsed and fell unconscious after Hua Xiong decided to leave .

"YOUR MAJESTY!"

"DIAO CHAN!"

The two ignored the battle and retreated back to the city, carrying the fainted girl to the palace .

At the other side, Dong Zhuo managed to regain his breathe after Diao Chan shifted her attention to Hua Xiong . His pale sweaty face was unsightly as he went through the torture of suffocation .

"That little wench is not normal! Get rid of her! Attack the city and kill everyone!" Dong Zhuo ordered with a hoarse voice .

The siege battle continued without the supervision of Diao Chan and Wang Yun .

Liu Yu took charge as the grand commander of the battle . As the battle took place on a large scale, both side could not get the upper hand on the other .

Dong Zhuo Army could not breakthrough the legion formations in front of the wall, so all siege towers and ladders could not reach the wall . His infantries and cavalries suffered serious damages from 10,000 archers on the wall as 20,000 of them lost their lives, but they did not die in vain .

Liu Yu's front 40,000 soldiers also suffered heavy casualties as they were attacked by Hua Xiong cavalries and bombardment from the trebuchets . Half of them died from today combat, but they managed to block the path from all siege ladders and towers .

At night, the royal palace .

The old man stayed back in the palace to be by Diao Chan's side . The physicians in the royal palace did their best to tend the little girl's condition .

Every physician was baffled by Diao Chan's sickness . It was not a sickness that a child could get as it was something that was caused by being mentally stressed to the limit .

It was a sickness of an overworked warlord!

An hour after the physicians nursed Diao Chan, she opened her eyes again .

"Diao Chan!" Wang Yun cried .

"Oh? I'm still alive?"

"Yes, you are . You idiot! What happened to you? Why did you suddenly collapse like that?"

"The war?"

"Liu Yu is commanding the troops at the moment . We're still doing well . "
