The butler of Qin Manor saw that the soldiers were really about to raid the place and became anxious. He knew that once something was discovered, it would mean death for all of them. So he shouted to the people behind him, "Brothers, they are fake soldiers slandering our general. Let's fight them!"
The Guardians behind him, who were used to bullying others, immediately took action upon hearing the butler's words. Over a hundred guards brandished their weapons and charged forward.
Meanwhile, the Crossbowmen at the entrance had already formed three rows. Seeing the Guardians rushing in, they wasted no time and directly drew their bows to shoot arrows. The servants had never seen crossbow bolts before; they originally didn't understand why those soldiers were standing there with an iron box. However, when the crossbow bolts rained down and claimed the lives of many Guardians, they realized that this device could shoot arrows. But by then, it was too late for them to escape. In an instant, thousands of crossbow bolts were fired, and before the more than a hundred Guardians could comprehend what was happening, they fell into pools of blood, including the butler who was shot multiple times and collapsed.
The entire general's residence was thrown into chaos. When Liu Guanfeng and others arrived at the entrance, they happened to witness this chaotic scene.
An hour later, everyone in Qin Manor was gathered in the small square in the front yard. A total of three hundred forty-one people were captured, all huddled together. The men shivered together while the women cried incessantly. Among them, only one woman stood out; she did not crowd with anyone else but knelt alone to one side, giving off an air of distinction.
This woman had an oval face and willow leaf eyebrows, exuding a scholarly aura. Upon seeing her, Liu Guanfeng nodded repeatedly; her appearance was certainly on par with the two ladies in his household. He then called over eight maidservants: "Take a look at that woman and see if she is your young lady."
The eight maidservants turned around and immediately recognized the girl hidden among the crowd, shouting, "Miss!" Following that, all eight maidservants rushed frantically to her side.
Liu Guanfeng instructed his subordinates to untie the young lady and bring her over. Before long, she arrived before Liu Guanfeng and others accompanied by the eight maidservants. The young woman bowed gracefully to the Sixth Prince and Liu Guanfeng: "I am Cai Yanran, and I thank you for your rescue."
The Sixth Prince observed her carefully and secretly praised her: it turns out that heaven can shape a person so perfectly. However, Shangguan Junhong understood the purpose of her visit this time, so he regarded Cai Yanran with admiration.
"Miss Cai, I should apologize to you; I did not fulfill my duties as a prince. It is I who have caused you distress," Shangguan Junhong said as he deeply bowed to Cai Yanran.
"It is fortunate for us commoners to have a prince like you," Cai Yanran maintained her composure without being overly humble or arrogant, which made Liu Guanfeng think that if this young woman could truly become Platinum Wen's wife, it would be a tremendous blessing for him.
"Miss Yanran, may I ask what your plans are next?"
Cai Yanran's expression darkened: "As a woman, I truly do not know what to do. My mother passed away when I was young; this time my father brought me for a matchmaker meeting but was killed by thieves. Now I can say that I am utterly alone."
"How about this, Miss Yanran? Platinum Wen is also my close friend; whether in appearance or ability, he will not disgrace you. If you are willing, I can now promise your father's request on his behalf so that you may become husband and wife. From now on, he will take care of all your needs. What do you think?"
Cai Yanran lowered her head in thought before sighing softly: "Originally my father wanted me to meet Platinum Wen for matchmaking so that he could help our Merchant Guild. Without funds, our Merchant Guild would go bankrupt; however, now it has indeed gone bankrupt and my only relative has also left me. Sir, if you can guarantee that our Merchant Guild will continue to thrive, I promise I will be a qualified wife."
Though there was some reluctance in her words, Liu Guanfeng understood that Cai Yanran proposed this condition because she wanted to find some memories while missing her family; this was only natural.
Liu Guanfeng nodded: "Miss Yanran, rest assured I can guarantee you that your Merchant Guild will continue to exist in this realm and Platinum Wen will be an unexpectedly good husband."
"Then Yanran would like to thank you here, my lord, but I still don't know how to address you."
"My name is Liu Guanfeng. I will take care of your matters."
"Then I will trouble Lord Liu."
Liu Guanfeng smiled slightly, "Yanran, from now on we are considered family, so there is no need to be so polite. Chonghong."
"Yes, my lord."
"You quickly send the Thunder Eagle Knight to escort Miss Yanran and her maid to the Branch in Crimson Dragon City, and have the President send someone to take Miss Yanran to Starfall City. Platinum Wen is already waiting there, and send someone to notify him to have someone come to pick her up. Remember, it is essential that Miss Yanran is delivered safely into Platinum Wen's hands. After that, arrange for the goods Miss Yanran brought this time to be sent to Five Star City."
"I will handle this immediately, please rest assured, my lord. Miss Yanran, please." Chonghong gestured for her to proceed.
Cai Yanran nodded at Shangguan Junhong and Liu Guanfeng before following Chonghong out of the general's residence.
At this moment, Gao Wei had returned before the group: "Reporting to the Sixth Prince, the entire general's residence has been searched according to Lord Liu's instructions. Except for the back garden, all other areas have been cleared. A total of three hundred forty people have been captured, and two hundred three who resisted have been killed."
Shangguan Junhong nodded: "Elder brother, shall we head to the back garden next?"
"Second brother, be extra cautious when we get to the back garden; there is a Ninth-Stage Tyrannosaurus Rex there. It is Qin Hongguan's mount."
"With you by my side, what do I have to fear?"
"Just be careful."
Under Gao Wei's lead, Liu Guanfeng, Shangguan Junhong, Shangguan Jinglei, and Song Hero brought three thousand Crossbowmen and over a thousand soldiers to the back garden. When they arrived at the entrance of the back garden, everyone stood at the door hesitantly because the Tyrannosaurus Rex was watching them from over forty meters away.
At this moment, the Tyrannosaurus Rex appeared extremely agitated; however, it seemed restrained as it had not left the back garden. If this Little Guy were to charge into the general's residence, unless it was forcibly killed, even the thousands of soldiers they brought would not be enough to handle it.
Thus, a standoff occurred between the group and a Ninth-Order Beast Tyrannosaurus Rex: "Elder brother, what should we do next? Should we kill it?"
Liu Guanfeng shook his head: "Let's observe first; if it comes down to it, then we can kill it. After all, it is a Ninth Tier magical beast; its cultivation is not easy. All soldiers retreat ten meters; Crossbowmen prepare." Although he suggested waiting, with someone of Shangguan Junhong's status present, Liu Guanfeng's priority was to ensure Shangguan Junhong's safety.
At this moment, the Tyrannosaurus Rex spoke: "Ignorant humans, you have trespassed into an area you should not be in. This will make my old friend very unhappy. Are you ready to die?"
After hearing the Tyrannosaurus Rex's words, Gao Wei immediately stood in front of several people, holding his steel gun across his chest. He knew he was no match for the creature, but he still had to protect his master's safety.
"Xiaofeng, leave this Tyrannosaurus Rex to me," said Little Black.
Liu Guanfeng looked down at Little Black, who was only about a meter tall, and reminded him, "Be careful."
"It's fine. If I find it a mate, it will thank me," Little Black replied.
Liu Guanfeng was taken aback: "Find it a mate?"
Little Black nodded: "Xiaofeng, do you remember the Tyrannosaurus Rex on Earth Dragon Island?"
Liu Guanfeng nodded: "How could I forget? I almost died at its hands."
"That Tyrannosaurus Rex is actually my friend. Otherwise, how would your last mission have gone so smoothly? I was with it the whole time; otherwise, it would have torn you apart long ago. But that Tyrannosaurus Rex was female, while this one is male. Don't you think they would make a perfect pair?"
"Do you have confidence in this?"
"Don't worry, just watch me." After saying that, Little Black dashed into the garden and stopped about thirty meters away from the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
At that moment, the Tyrannosaurus Rex went berserk: "Little Guy, are you provoking me? You'll regret this." With that, the Tyrannosaurus Rex charged forward with its claws swinging. Shangguan Junhong saw the power of a Ninth-Stage Beast for the first time and loudly warned Little Black: "Be careful! It's coming!" Behind them, all the soldiers were ready to charge. Only Liu Guanfeng, Shangguan Jinglei, and Song Hero remained calm.
Since the first time he saw Little Black, Shangguan Jinglei's mount had already informed him that Little Black's strength surpassed its own. Song Hero quickly recognized Little Black's uniqueness as well; although he didn't know its level, he could tell that this beast was definitely extraordinary.
As the Tyrannosaurus Rex charged a few steps forward, Little Black also moved. Suddenly enveloped in a surge of silver lightning, Little Black charged towards the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
One was a Ninth Tier Earth Dragon and the other a Divine Knight's magical beast; their collision immediately established superiority. In just one exchange, the Tyrannosaurus Rex was knocked back by Little Black. Then Little Black leaped in front of the Tyrannosaurus Rex and pressed its front paw firmly against its chest: "Little Guy, why don't you move?"
After struggling a couple of times and realizing that its opponent was far stronger, the Tyrannosaurus Rex gave up resisting: "Fine, I can't beat you. Just kill me here; at least I'll have an explanation for that Qin Hongguan kid."
Little Black then removed its paw from the Tyrannosaurus Rex's chest: "I never said I would kill you; you charged at me first."
Tyrannosaurus Rex was taken aback. "You really won't kill me? Aren't you afraid that I might kill the people behind you?"
"With me here, do you think you can harm any of them? I just don't understand what is so good about Qin Hongguan that you want to become his Mount."
"I had no choice; I lost to him in the past. Besides, since coming here, he has always provided me with good meat, so I have to follow him," Tyrannosaurus Rex replied helplessly.
"Do you want to leave this place?"
"Leave? Where can I go? It would be the same if I returned to the mountains."
"What if I introduce you to a girl?" Little Black teased while looking at him.
Upon hearing this, Tyrannosaurus Rex immediately stood up. Initially thinking it was nothing, the soldiers behind him had slowly moved a few steps forward, but when they saw Tyrannosaurus Rex suddenly stand up, everyone instinctively took a step back.
"Are you serious? Is she beautiful?"
Little Black shook his head. "I don't know your standards of beauty, but my friend says she is definitely a beauty among your Earth Dragons."
"Where is she now? When can I see her?" This Tyrannosaurus Rex was in its prime and was particularly attracted to females of its kind. However, since becoming a Mount, it had hardly seen any female animals. As for humans, it looked down on them completely; they didn't even have scales and would bleed all over with just a light touch. It also found other magical beasts unappealing. But today, hearing that there was a beautiful Earth Dragon who would be its wife made it very excited.
"You can go see her, but you need to break your contract with Qin Hongguan."
