Chapter 97A: Subduing the both of them

Yuan Xin was fourteen years old when he entered the Dark Palace. He became vice captain of the Dark Sparrow Team when he was sixteen. At seventeen, he followed Nalan Ye. He concealed his identity and nobody knew who he was.

Yong An was about as powerful as he was. He was also the product of very strict training. Only then were they able to become the main bodyguards of Nalan Ye.

It was just that Yong An was a baby abandoned at birth. He didn’t know his real identity. Yuan Xin’s whole family was killed by bandits and was saved by the people from the Dark Palace just before he died. That’s how he survived today.

It went without saying that they were strong and smart. The both were well known in the Dark Palace. Otherwise, the safety of Nalan Ye would not be dependent on just the two of them.

Of course Nalan Ye’s martial arts were stronger than theirs, but there were many things that were not convenient for him to do. At those times, he would have to rely on them.

Even the western district’s emperor knew that Nalan Ye had two great guards beside him who would follow him into battle, defending against the north. He had once tried to poach them, but Nalan Ye had rejected him.

This was especially so for each and every single guard in the west district even though they did not know Yuan Xin and Yong An’s identity. Of course, outsiders would not know about the fact that they were from the Dark Palace.

So, at this very moment, Yuan Xin and Yong An had never been in such a shameful situation. It was simply more devastating than being told that they had a terminal illness. They sat in the middle of the room, looking at the papers and ink brush lying in front of them. They wanted to cry but they had no tears. They were so regretful that they wanted to die.

This place wa sno longer the Heavenly Dream Tower. Luo Qing Luan had led the two men back to the general’s residence. She thought about how easily she had obtained both of Nalan Ye’s men and immediately led the two of them to one of her specialised rooms. She began to tell them what they had to do in the next period of time.

“What, you lost the bet so you have to pay up. Both your expressions are so dark, are you planning to renege?” Luo Qing Luan smiled lightly as she leaned on the bamboo and fanned herself lightly. Her gaze was no longer as sharp as it was before. She had regained her image of a daughter from a wealthy family.

Yuan Xin was filled with regret. If he had known earlier that the future princess would be so devious, he would never have made a bet with her.

Thinking of the knowing look in Lord Wang’s eyes when they left, where he even said,

“You guys may not know this, but if Luo Qing Luan did not hold back, even This Lord would have fallen under her hands multiple times. You guys even dared to make a bet with her.”, his heart ached even more.

Yong An was the same. His expression changed as his eyes turned from white to red, back to white. His strange expression was hilarious.

He was the grand guard of the grand price. He thought that there would be a day where someone would ask him to write a pornography book. Such a low class thing was simply dirtying his hand!

“Young Miss Luo just can’t help but bully people intolerably. If you want to kill us, then go ahead. If you want us to write these kinds of filthy books, it’s impossible!” Yong An said gloomily. He looked as if he would rather die.

“Who was it before who swore plainly that they would admit their loss if they couldn’t handle my attacks? That they would obediently listen to my orders even if they had to risk life and limb?” Luo Qing Luan glanced at Yong An. She was not angry at all, and was speaking gently, “This Lady has not yet asked you to live or die. I have only asked you to move the brush and write some things to earn some money. Even this is too difficult for you?”

“But...”

“There are no buts. A loss is a loss. Do you admit that you lost to me?” Luo Qing Luan’s expression was cold as she looked at them.

Yuan Xin and Yong An were immediately at a loss of words. They turned more and more ashamed. It was a loss, that was for sure, but losing in this way was terrible. It didn’t give them a chance to show even half of their abilities. This was the first time it had ever happened.

The both of them naturally understood what happened. Because Luo Qing Luan was a girl, they did not know that she would be so powerful. How else would they have fallen for it?

Seeing that they remained silent, Luo Qing Luan said, “Since you’ve lost, you should listen to my orders obediently. From today onwards, you’re under my banner. If I tell you to do something, you should just do it. I’m just asking you to write a little story to entertain the masses and earn a bit of money. What’s so embarrassing about that? I used to be the one writing all of this before and I’ve just been busy lately, so I thought of asking you to help.” After hesitating, Yuan Xin grit his teeth and finally found the courage to say, “Young Miss Luo, we lost and if you have any requests, even if it requires us to cross mountains of daggers and seas of flame, us two brothers will not falter. However, if you want to lock us in here to write- write these comics, it’s just too... too...”

“We still request for Young Miss to request for something else. We will definitely not reject it. Even if you wanted us to go to the NOrth to kill their king today, we would risk our life and limb for it.” Yong An immediately cupped his fists in salute, tone earnest.

“But I don’t need you to do something so troublesome like killing someone. This Lady just wants to earn money!” Luo Qing Luan smiled a smile that didn’t reach her eyes as she looked at them. She smirked, “Up until today, my business has been flourishing and bringing in the money. I can’t waste it.” She didn’t continue speaking, but they could tell what she meant, “If you can do it, you should do it. If you can’t do it, you still have to do it!”

Even in other situations where they needed to face danger and risk their lives, Yuan Xin and Yong An did not have as much difficulty. They could swear that having to write these pornography books was too embarrassing. They just couldn’t do it.

In any case, they had no idea how to write these flowery words! If they didn’t promise... their male dignity... a man’s word was his life. They had already lost to Luo Qing Luan, but did not do what the other party requested. If word went out, it would also be a big hit to their reputation.

From the beginning to the end, it was a dilemma that they could not figure out. They were really at a loss and simply could not speak anymore.
