Chapter 37: Surrender to Death



Although Chen Kuang only served in the Taichang Temple for three years, he actually lived in the imperial city for nine years before being appointed as a music official.

Because of his humble status, he often did some rough chores on a daily basis, such as going out of town to work as a comprador.

To leave the Liang Kingdom's imperial city, one must pass through three checkpoints.

The first is the guards at the inner city gates, the second is the outer city moat, and the third is the Huo flag barracks stationed outside the city.

——Emperor Su Yu of Liang was indeed a man who was extremely afraid of death, and the first group of people who followed Huo Hengxuan to guard the imperial city were also these soldiers stationed outside the city.

Chen Kuang was very familiar with this.

But now, the city gate has collapsed, the Huo flag has fallen, and the moat has long become a decoration. It should have been unobstructed all the way.

But there is another natural chasm in front of us.

Shen Xingzhu was dressed in black, and her eyes under the green gauze were like sparkling water, quietly floating in the air.

In an instant, everything was silent, and the smoke, flames and noise behind me seemed to be left far away.

She has been waiting here for a long time.

Sit back and wait.

Chen Kuang is that silly rabbit.

"call……"

Chen Kuang let out a long sigh, knowing that this was the last and most difficult level of the night.

Shen Xingzhu lowered his eyes and said calmly, "You made a mistake."

Chen Kuang nodded calmly: "Well, I made a mistake."

As he killed his way here, he didn't care whether they were mortals or cultivators.

Anything that stands in his way is his enemy.

Naturally, he made the above mistake of bullying his subordinates, giving Shen Xingzhu a legitimate reason to kill him.

Chu Wenruo had never seen her before, but he had a feeling that she was not a good person. He looked nervous and whispered, "She is..."

Chen Kuang said in a deep voice: "Xuan Shen Dao Sect, Shen Xingzhu."

"Xuan Shen Dao Sect? Isn't that a sect that always upholds morality and only lobbying to quell wars... They shouldn't be involved in this matter."

Chu Wenruo said in surprise, hugging the little princess in his arms nervously.

As soon as she exerted force, the little princess turned pale and suddenly struggled and resisted, saying in a vague voice: "Mother...it hurts, I feel uncomfortable, please loosen up a little..."

Chu Wenruo was startled and quickly let go, grabbing her daughter's shoulders and shaking her: "Ying'er, what's wrong? Don't scare me!"

Her face was filled with panic and she almost cried.

Chen Kuang was also shocked. The situation was critical just now and he didn't have time to take care of the mother and daughter.

The battlefield is dangerous. Could it be that the little princess got injured at some point?!

Don't let it come to an end, and then you will be sad if you fail...

The little princess's complexion became worse and worse, and her face turned slightly purple. She quickly grabbed Chu Wenruo's arm, and her voice sounded as if she was about to die:

"Mom...don't..."

Chu Wenruo nearly collapsed on the spot. She hugged her daughter, shook her head and cried, "Mom won't leave! Mom won't leave! You won't die!"

The little princess finally couldn't bear it anymore, her stomach churned, and she vomited with a "wow".

A large pool of food residue was sprayed all over the beautiful mane on Xuantian Horse's back...

It turned out that this little泔水袋 had eaten too much before, and it was constantly bumping along the way, causing all the undigested food to be thrown into its throat.

Originally, he could have swallowed it back after a while, but Chu Wenruo shook him and hugged him, and it was squeezed out like toothpaste.

Chen Kuang: “…”

Xuantian Horse: “…”

Chu Wenruo was stunned for a moment, then a little embarrassedly caught the "dying" little princess, quickly wiped the stains from the corners of her mouth, and patted her chest as if nothing had happened to help her calm down.

The extremely tense atmosphere seemed to ease a lot after being interrupted by this.

Chen Kuang curled up the corners of his mouth and almost laughed out loud.

Shen Xingzhu looked at him with a surprised look in his eyes, and said softly, "You're still in the mood to laugh. You're really a strange person."

Chen Kuang smiled even more when he heard this, and said loudly:

"Do you think, Fairy, that I should cry when my death is imminent?"

Shen Xingzhu frowned, then shifted his gaze to Chu Wenruo and her daughter.

Chu Wenruo's heart tightened, and he said sternly with a stern face:

"Your Xuanshen Dao Sect is committed to stopping wars, yet now you're actually getting involved in the Zhou-Liang conflict, becoming accomplices to the evil. Aren't you afraid of being spurned and ridiculed by the world?!"

Unfortunately, the noble Lady of Liang had a naturally gentle and deceptive voice. Even when she spoke harshly, she sounded like a snow-white Persian cat baring its fangs and claws.

Shen Xingzhu actually nodded and said lightly:

"Indeed, so today's matter, the grudges involved, only concern him, and have nothing to do with you, mother and daughter."

"I won't stop you. Once I kill him, you can leave on your own."

"Now that Li Hongling and Wei Su are dead, the main force of the Black Armor Army has dispersed. With this horse, you should be more cautious and it will not be difficult to escape from Liang State."

The war is coming to an end, and she never cares who wins or loses.

Whether Chu Wenruo died or was rescued, it was Zhou Liangguo's own business and she would not interfere.

She came here with only one purpose, which was to kill Chen Kuang.

Chu Wenruo was stunned and turned to look at Chen Kuang.

Chen Kuang nodded and said softly, "She's right. She came for me."

He winked at Chu Wenruo and said, "When I pat the horse's butt, hold on to the reins tightly and run forward. Don't look back."

Chen Kuang pointed to a forest in the distance.

"Have you ever been outside the imperial city? Walk toward that forest. Another thirty miles and you'll reach Jishao County."

"There are many waterways in the county. Just ask and you'll know where the ferry is... Remember to cover your face. Such a beautiful face will easily attract people's attention."

Chen Kuang looked calm, but his words showed...
