Thousand Miles of Bright Moonlight

Chapter 86

Haidu Aling liked to tame women, especially liking Li Yaoying, this kind of stunning beauty.

If it were in the past, he would not have been able to endure a month without touching a woman then discarding her like a worn-out broom. But this time, he was patient. He found that Li Yaoying's occasional meekness that she showed gave him a stronger sense of conquering. Just like training a falcon, like his thousand-in-one chance of taming a divine falcon like Abu, this woman deserved his patience.

His patience was rewarded with a decisive betrayal. She dared to say in front of him that she liked a monk!

Haidu Aling gripped Yaoying's thin, willow-like waist. That fool Fuman was right about one thing: the clothes on her should be torn off viciously.

Yaoying's hands were twisted behind her and she couldn't struggle. In full view of everyone, this man actually took her captive!

She heard the voices of her personal soldiers and Xie Qing roaring angrily, heard the voices of the soldiers of the Royal Court whispering, and her heart was burning with anxiety.

"Let her go."

Among the countless voices, a clear voice softly said.

This voice seemed to float down from above the Ninth Heaven, very cold, very light, but in an instant, all other voices disappeared.

Only this voice remained.

Haidu Aling raised his head in astonishment.

Tumoroga was high on the hill, his vivid maroon kasaya blown by the wind and flying up, showing a string of dull-colored bodhi beads on his wrist. His turquoise eyes slightly lowered, his gaze falling on Yaoying, neither sad nor happy.

The Buddha's son who did not eat the food of mortals was also coaxed by Li Yaoying?

Impossible. He was not only a monarch but also a monk. How could he be coaxed by a little lady?

Haidu Aling couldn't help but doubt: Could it be that what Li Yaoying said was true?

While he was distracted, Yaoying struggled free from him and fell off the horse. Not caring about the scrapes on her body, she immediately climbed up and ran towards Xie Qing and the others.

Haidu Aling sneered and reached out to grab Yaoying.

Several whistling sounds came from the air. A fierce hawk swooped down, its sharp talons ruthlessly grabbing Haidu Aling, immediately piercing through his skin.

The white falcon hovering nearby immediately flew over to protect its master. The hawk fearlessly spread its wings to meet the attack. The two large birds tore at each other high in the air for a while. Not long after, the white falcon let out a clear hostile shriek, flapping with its injured wings to land on Haidu Aling's uninjured arm.

Haidu Aling was furious and looked at Tumoroga in anger.

Holding the bodhi beads, his robes fluttering and flying, Tumoroga softly said: "Princess Wenzhao is a guest of the Holy City."

Haidu Aling said furiously, "Tumo! She is a slave girl I have captured! You have allied with my uncle, where river water does not offend well water. Do you have to make enemies with my Northern Rong over a female slave?"

Tumoroga raised his eyes, his pupils brilliant.

"I am the king of the Holy City." He glanced at Haidu Aling, "If Northern Rong has any objection to matters of the covenant, have the Northern Rong Khan come to me."

After he spoke, he turned his horse around.

The blue-jacketed and white-robed soldiers immediately followed and flanked him as he left.

The other soldiers escorted the Hu merchants and the common people to climb onto the main road, Yaoying and her party among them. Tumoroga said she was a guest of the Holy City, and the soldiers immediately treated her in a much warmer and polite manner.

Haidu Aling watched Yaoying's figure disappear into the densely packed Royal Court's cavalry. Unable to restrain his rage, he yanked on his reins to follow.

His subordinates immediately stopped him: "My prince, today we were only here to test the Royal Court..."

Wakhan deliberately sent Haidu Aling to intercept and attack the caravans after the covenant was made, to see if Tumoroga would swallow his anger or bring troops to the rescue, as a way to test the strength of the Holy City.

From the look of the armor-clad soldiers that extended as far as the eye could see just now, several major clans were still loyal to Tumoroga.

At this time, they could not tear up the covenant.

Haidu Aling's pale golden eyes were full of brewing anger and humiliation, and his hands were clenched into fists.

That Han girl escaped from under his nose like this!

Did she think that she could rest easy by relying on that monk?

Seeing a prey, he must play to his heart's content; he absolutely could not submissively let her go!
