Chapter 448: Bet (1/2)

Now, the setting sun painted the sky blood-red. The smell of blood filled Blue Moon City. The common people inside the city started to move as they started to clean the entire city. Before long, the beautiful coastal city was reverted to its previous state. However, the smell of blood lingered in the air.

Long Yi was sitting on a tall cliff deep in his thoughts. Sea waves crashed against the cliff which sprayed water droplets everywhere.

What are you thinking about? A soft voice came from behind Long Yi. A familiar fragrance found its way into Long Yis nose and he was instantly able to recognize the owner of the voice.

Im thinking about the war. I wonder, how long will it take before everything comes to an end? Long Yi didnt look back. He already knew that it was Mu Hanyan standing behind him the moment he smelled the fragrance in the air.

When did you become such a compassionate person? Its not like you at all. Mu Hanyan sat beside Long Yi and said with a gentle smile on her face.

Long Yi laughed at himself and sighed, It doesnt matter how strong a person is. They will have some weakness in them. Even if a person is accustomed to seeing blood, there will come a day where the person starts to hate seeing blood being spilled.

Mu Hanyan looked at Long Yi in surprise. Her coquettish, beautiful face slowly became gentle and soft as she stared at Long Yis face. She leaned on Long Yi and extended her hands to hold onto his waist. She slowly extended her neck and placed her head into his sturdy bosom.

Long Yi caressed Mu Hanyans smooth and soft hair. He knew that she was using warmth, which belonged exclusively to women, to comfort him.

Hanyan, what do you think? Who won the bet between us? Long Yi suddenly asked with a smile.

Mmm, you won the bet. However, you lost as well. Mu Hanyan moved in his bosom and started to restlessly nibble on his sturdy chest muscles from above his extremely thin clothes.

Why is that? Long Yi raised his eyebrows and asked. Of course, his hands didnt remain idle as it pinched Mu Hanyans breasts.

Mu Hanyan slightly moaned and she rolled her eyes at him. With a chuckle, she explained, You won because I helped you to kill those two pieces of trash. I was the one who cleared up the obstacles for you. Of course, you lost the bet because Im going to rely on you from now on. Youre definitely going to cry.

Are you serious? Why is it my loss when you are going to rely on me? I clearly won over a beauty to my side. Moreover, not just an ordinary beauty, I won an exceptionally beautiful one Long Yi smiled and replied Mu Hanyan.

Thats why I said you lost the bet. Its not a good thing for me to rely on you Perhaps, I might stab you in the back next time. Mu Hanyan made a stabbing action and a weird expression appeared in her eyes.

Thats too much, can I reject your offer? Long Yi said with a smile. Although he maintained his composure on the surface, his heart started to beat like a drum. Mu Hanyan, this woman was too shrewd. When she mixed the truth with her lies, he was really unable to see through her. If she truly wanted to stab him in the back, it would be extremely difficult to guard against her.

Of course you cant! You can only continue to bet with me. Mu Hanyans lips curled upwards as she stared into Long Yis eyes.

Fine, lets bet. However, what do we have at stake this time? Long Yi shrugged his shoulders and asked.

Well bet on our life. Mu Hanyan blurted out and her pretty little eyes stared straight at Long Yi without blinking.

Long Yis heart started to shake and he stared back at Mu Hanyan. Intense sparks flew in all directions when their gazes met. However, Mu Hanyan broke into giggles and she pressed Long Yis arm against her towering chests. A sly grin appeared on her face and she teased, I was joking! All I wanted to see was the tense expression you had on your face.

Dont scare me like that, my little heart is still jumping up and down. Long Yi gasped.

Well, you look fine now. I still have many things to do. Mu Hanyan stood up and suddenly added, Oh, thats right. The second layer of Yatesianna has already been broken. The problem now is that the morale of the troops from the Nalan Empire is extremely unstable. You should make your preparations. If the final defense line is not broken through within the next month, even if Nalan Ruyue ascends the throne, she wont be able to suppress the chaos with her imperial power.

After speaking her last sentence, Mu Hanyan disappeared right in front of Long Yi.

Long Yi retraced his smile and a trace of pallid light flashed through his eyes. This seductress Since she was the one who started it, Long Yi was willing to play with her until the end. He was curious to see who would win and who would lose.

When he recalled Mu Hanyans reminder before she left, Long Yi started to calm down. He came to the conclusion that the intelligence network Mu Hanyan possessed was not inferior to Skynet in the slightest. The news of the breach in the second line of Yatesianna was received by him not too long ago. However, Mu Hanyan had also received the news. However, the analysis of Mu Hanyan was correct. The final line of defense must be destroyed within one month. After a month, the two legions of the Nalan Empire would be scattered and divided. After all, something happened in the capital of the Nalan Empire. It was something which shook the entire empire and threatened the safety of everyone. How could the soldiers risk their lives and continue to assault the Yatesianna defense line when the safety of their relatives and friends were at risk?

One month How is that even possible? Long Yi muttered. Yatesianna had three defense lines altogether and the last line was the strongest. It was filled with mechanisms and traps. It was impossible to breach this defense line within a month.
