Chapter 590 - 590 Bull Egg and Asura (2)
590 Bull Egg and Asura (2)
In short, it was definitely Asura who let Grandma go.
Helian Beiming had only heard of Asura in legends. Asura was also a sacrificial soldier, but he was even stronger than one. Asura was obtained by chance: A top-notch golden-masked sacrificial soldier had gone crazy because he was careless in practicing martial arts. After forcefully enduring it, his strength increased by ten times. That was the original Asura.
There were once people who did not hesitate to use medicine to stimulate the sacrificial soldiers to go crazy in order to refine Asura. However, not many of them really survived. Moreover, Asura had a manic personality and was very difficult to control.
Nangong Li’s Asura did not look like the rumors. At least, Helian Beiming had never felt any violent aura from him.!!
Helian Beiming thought of Asura and the three little black eggs sitting in a row on the threshold drinking milk. He looked a little docile.
Was the rumor wrong, or was Nangong Li’s Asura not a normal Asura?
Now was not the time to study Asura’s personality. Helian Beiming only quickly thought about it in his mind and returned to the topic. “There’s something I don’t understand. Before the incident with the Queen, it was reasonable for him to attack Ah Wan. Now that the relationship between the two families is so tense, once something happens to Sister-in-law, the first person to be suspected will be the Queen. Hasn’t he considered any consequences?”
Yan Jiuchao said indifferently, “I can only say that if he doesn’t do this, there will be even more serious consequences.”
In the past, the Eldest Princess was nothing to be afraid of. Even if she appeared openly in front of the Emperor, the Emperor would not look her in the eye. However, what if the Queen committed an unforgivable mistake and lost the qualifications to inherit the throne?
As long as the Eldest Princess died, the Queen, as the Emperor’s only child, would be forgiven no matter how big a mistake she made.
“If the assassination doesn’t work, if nothing goes wrong, they will do something else next,” Yan Jiuchao said as he looked at Helian Beiming.
The meaning was obvious. It was time for them to counterattack.
Helian Beiming clenched his fists and took a deep breath. “You’ve been in the manor for so long, you should know that the Helian family won’t participate in the competition for the throne. The Helian family will always be loyal to the Emperor. As the head of the Helian family, I can’t help you deal with the Queen Manor.”
“Oh.”
“However,” Helian Beiming raised his head and said firmly, “as your uncle, I won’t let anyone bully you.”
… .
“What did you say? The assassination failed?” In the courtyard of the Queen Manor, Nangong Li looked at the guard who had come to report in disbelief.
The guard cupped his hands and said, “I think so. I’ve been guarding the vicinity of the Helian family just now. I saw the Asura escape with my own eyes. He looked like he had suffered a huge shock. I asked Lord Asura what was wrong, but he didn’t say anything. He just ran away as if there were poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts behind.”
Asura was fearless. How could he be frightened in a mere Helian Manor? Could it be that there was an expert more powerful than Asura in the Helian Manor?
“An expert even more powerful than Asura” was sitting in front of the bed aggrievedly. She looked in the direction where Asura had escaped and said miserably, “Boohoo, Bull Egg doesn’t want me…”
Asura ruined Nangong Li’s plans a few times in a row. Nangong Li finally began to pay attention to what was wrong with Asura. It was as if the number of times Asura went berserk was not as many as before.
Before this, he thought that this was a good thing. After all, he did not have to strangle a few of his sacrificial soldiers to death every day, nor did he have to worry that he would be crazy enough to not recognize him.
However, Nangong Li felt that after Asura’s temper improved, he seemed to have become less “obedient” to him.
Nangong Li decided to talk to Asura. Back then, when he released Asura from the forbidden area, Asura had once sworn a blood oath and was willing to serve him. It was best if Asura did not betray him. Otherwise, he would let Asura understand that he could save him and push him back into the sea of fire!
The frightened Asura took a shower and went to bed. His meridians were still repairing and breaking at all times. Ordinary people could not withstand this intense pain for an instant, but he endured it for more than ten years. He held the little milk bottle to his chest. This way, he wouldn’t feel so uncomfortable.
“Asura, are you asleep?” It was Nangong Li’s voice.
Asura turned over and sat up, hiding the little milk bottle under the blanket.
When Nangong Li heard him get up, she slowly pushed open the door and entered. “I heard you missed. Are you hiding something from me?”
Asura shook his head.
“Don’t lie to me.” Nangong Li reached into the blanket and took out the small milk bottle that he had hidden tightly. “What is this?”
Asura remained silent.
This was a water bag used by children, and it emitted a faint milky fragrance. Nangong Li placed it under his nose and sniffed it. He looked at Asura expressionlessly and said, “Have you made friends with those little fellows?”
Asura still remained silent.
Nangong Li threatened, “Don’t forget, your life is mine. I can give it to you and take it back. If you dare to disobey my orders again, I’ll tell your clansmen that you’re with me and let them capture you!”
Asura thought of the dark cellar where his body was bitten by insects and snakes.
“Dirty,” said Asura. His throat was ruined, and the voice was unpleasant and unrecognizable.
However, Nangong Li understood. He bent down and met Asura’s gaze. “You don’t want to go back, right?”
Asura nodded.
“Are you still going to be obedient in the future?” Nangong Li asked.
Asura lowered his head and nodded.
Nangong Li smiled in satisfaction. He stood up and patted his head. “Just be obedient. I’ll take this.”
With that, he weighed the water bag in his hand and left without looking back. When he passed by the courtyard, he casually threw the water bag into a brazier at the side.
Asura watched the little milk bottle burn to ashes and his eyes turned red with sadness.
