Chapter 317: Conquest (Part 2)
Tian Shengwu merely pointed a finger, landing on the tip of the spear.
In an instant, the fiercely dancing flames suddenly extinguished.
Yang Suxin exerted all her strength, but still could not pierce Tian Shengwu's fingertip.
With a loud clang, the spear, unable to bear the weight, broke in response.
And Yang Suxin also fell forward due to inertia.
Seeing that she was about to fall into Tian Shengwu's arms, Yang Suxin hurriedly turned to try to avoid him.
Unfortunately, Tian Shengwu was faster, stepping forward and embracing Yang Suxin in his arms.
As the warm jade entered his embrace, Tian Shengwu felt a rush of satisfaction; this was love!
"You... you let me go!"
It was the first time Yang Suxin had ever fallen into a man's arms. The overwhelming masculine scent made her cheeks blush.
Of course, if the one holding Yang Suxin was someone with low strength... Well, normally, a weakling wouldn't be able to hold Yang Suxin.
After a good struggle, Yang Suxin finally escaped Tian Shengwu's embrace, her face flushed, and she said shyly: "You... Why are you like this?! Scoundrel!"
With that, she turned around and angrily stormed off.
But the barrier separating the outside world blocked her way.
Yang Suxin glared fiercely at the person in charge of the arena: "Aren't you going to remove the shield!?"
"Oh, oh, oh."
Watching Yang Suxin flee, Tian Shengwu shouted from behind: "General Yang, we haven't finished our fight yet? When will you come again?"
Tian Shengwu strolled back to the Southern Courtyard, feeling content, returning to the small courtyard.
At this time, Lu Hong was enjoying the Yang family's specialty dishes. Seeing Tian Shengwu return, he smiled and said, "How was it? Did you spark the flames of romance with Yang Suxin?"
Tian Shengwu immediately gave Lu Hong a thumbs-up: "Star Lord, you're truly brilliant. General Yang seemed so shy that she fled without even finishing the duel."
"You didn't stop her?"
"Why should I stop her?"
"Chase her down with victory!"
"Huh? She lost her fighting spirit, and you still want to fight? Isn't that bullying?"
Lu Hong was a bit speechless: "Are you an idiot? I meant chase her down with victory and win her heart, not beat her in the duel."
"This..." Tian Shengwu realized he might have missed a great opportunity and hurriedly sought help from Lu Hong: "Star Lord, could you teach me a few moves?"
Lu Hong pouted: "You wasted a good chance. Let me think... As a strong woman, Yang Suxin will only be captivated if you show enough strength. The best chance has been missed, so now you can only wait. If Yang Suxin is interested, she'll definitely come to challenge you again in the coming days. Then, you should continue to crush her, but remember, don't hurt her, just like today, tease her during the battle. Understand? Create romance, got it!?"
"Got it, got it!" Tian Shengwu nodded repeatedly, indicating his understanding.
Then, Lu Hong continued to impart his experience while enjoying the food.
After listening to Lu Hong's insights, Tian Shengwu grew increasingly respectful of Lu Hong: "Star Lord, you are truly knowledgeable, Wu Sheng is impressed!"
"Stay low-key, stay low-key, it's just that I have a few more wives than others."
Yang Suxin ran back to her room in a hurry, throwing herself onto her bedding, completely lacking the cool image of a former Great General.
Even though her interactions with Tian Shengwu were brief, he was indeed quite handsome; even with his features concealed, he exuded extraordinary charisma.
It's a joke; as the ruler of Tian Wu World, even with his looks hidden, his aura of superiority naturally emanated from within. The closer Yang Suxin got to Tian Shengwu, the more she felt his unique charm. Importantly… importantly, he defeated her effortlessly, while even the former Yang Huaishan had to work hard to beat her.
What does this tell you? It shows that this Wu Sheng might be even more formidable than Yang Huaishan before becoming a god.
Yang Suxin has always had a heroic ideology, and the intimate embrace kept replaying in her mind.
That night, Yang Suxin had some insomnia.
The next day, Yang Suxin couldn't hold back any longer and found Tian Shengwu again, trying hard to remain calm, and said solemnly: "The battle from yesterday isn't over; let's continue today!"
On the third day, Yang Suxin knocked on the door of the Southern Courtyard's third small courtyard early in the morning, without waiting for her to speak.
Tian Shengwu embraced her, laughing: "I know, I know, the duel isn't over yet."
"You... what are you doing! If people see it, it won't look good." Yang Suxin coyly enjoyed Tian Shengwu's wide embrace, without struggling at all.
Tian Shengwu chuckled: "Why, does the Yang family control the freedom of love between men and women?"
"No, but..."
"But what? Come on, I'll teach you a few more impressive moves today."
"Really?!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Suxin's eyes sparkled; Tian Shengwu's practical experience was rich, and his combat skills were outstanding. Even Lu Hong could not easily surpass him; teaching Yang Suxin seemed all too easy.
And that night, Tian Shengwu did not return, directly staying in Yang Suxin's villa.
Following Lu Hong's guidance, Tian Shengwu coaxed and cajoled, fulfilling the crucial step a man has to take.
After a tumultuous night, Tian Shengwu contentedly lay on Yang Suxin's bed.
Meanwhile, Yang Suxin curled up like a cute kitten against Tian Shengwu's chest.
"Who... Who exactly are you people?"
Yang Suxin wasn't foolish; apart from the facts, she had truly fallen for this man she'd only met four times.
In response to Yang Suxin's question, Tian Shengwu did not answer directly but instead asked, "Does it matter?"
"Very important! I've been raised by the Yang family for twenty-eight years; I don't want to see them decline."
"Rest assured, I won't do anything to harm the Yang family, and I can even help you guys seize power and win the upcoming round-robin competition."
"Really?!"
"You're my woman now; why would I lie to you?"
Receiving Tian Shengwu's firm assurance, Yang Suxin was overjoyed: "Thank you."
Yang Suxin continued to be curious about Tian Shengwu and Lu Hong's identities.
As for this, Tian Shengwu dared not directly reveal it, but since Yang Suxin was his woman now—and his first woman—he had to open his heart to her.
After pondering for a moment: "How about this, if you truly want to know, come with me to meet Brother Lu. With his permission, I can tell you everything without reservation."
Eager to know the answer, the two got up that night and returned to the Southern Courtyard.
Lu Hong looked at the two standing together, showing their closeness, and chuckled: "Wu Sheng, you acted quickly!"
"Hehehe, isn't it because the Star Lord taught me well."
As soon as Wu Sheng uttered the words, Tian Shengwu understood Lu Hong's meaning.
"Alright, you little couple, don't disturb my rest, make your own fun."
"Okay, Star Lord, you too, rest early."
Walking out of Lu Hong's bedroom, Yang Suxin was perplexed: "Aren't you called Wu Sheng? What's with Shengwu, and why do you call Lu Hong the Star Lord?"
"Come to my room, I'll explain everything to you slowly."
After ensuring no one was eavesdropping, Tian Shengwu looked at Yang Suxin and laid his cards on the table: "The Star Lord and I come from the Tang Shi world."
"Tang Shi world!" Yang Suxin recognized the recently shocking news in Constant Domain: "Star Lord... Star Lord... Is Lu Hong the ruler of Star Sea World?!"
"Correct, and I am the ruler of Tian Wu World—Tian Shengwu."
This explosive news left Yang Suxin in astonishment for a long time. The rulers of two worlds entering Lin'an World alone—it was truly a bold act.
"Are you... are you here to overthrow Lin'an?"
"You've got it wrong; Lin'an is too close to Tang Shi, the Star Lord is somewhat uneasy about the neighbor, so we came to take a look, get a sense of the situation, but have no intent to attack, you can be assured I guarantee, as long as Lin'an doesn't act against Star Sea, Star Sea absolutely won't initiate an attack on Lin'an World."
