How To Survive as a Villain-Chapter 193: Yan-ge: Shit, Where’s My Wife?

Chapter 193: Yan-ge: Shit, Where’s My Wife?

“Before you try to assassinate me, at least give a long, fierce speech or an explanation ah! I’ve never seen someone swinging their swords so quickly! Why aren’t you following the procedure?!” Xiao YuAn quickly retreated towards the Imperial Guards and screamed.

The Imperial Guards rushed over to protect Xiao YuAn, but they were quickly outnumbered, and they weren’t strong enough to defend him. The Imperial Guards were injured, with many bloody cuts on their bodies. Some of them even fell to the ground, trembling uncontrollably. A man in black saw that there was a great opportunity and took advantage of it, as he waved the sword at Xiao YuAn.

Xiao YuAn narrowly dodged the attack, hitting the man on the back of his neck with his elbow. The man in black was hit so hard that he fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

“Hmm?” Xiao YuAn was a little surprised as he moved his wrist.

In the past, when he was inside the body of the Emperor of the Northern Kingdom, his body was too weak and his hands had the strength of a chicken. So, even with such a simple hit, he wouldn’t have been able to knock people unconscious. Moreover, Xiao YuAn wasn’t able to use any strength, plus his hands and feet felt extremely uncoordinated. However, this new rebirth didn’t feel like that at all.

Xiao YuAn was slightly distracted by this new discovery that he didn’t realize that several black-clothed men had grouped up to attack him, and the shadows of the swords instantly pounced on Xiao YuAn. At that instant, Xiao YuAn retreated in a panic and dodged the swords several times, but it was hard to beat them when he was outnumbered. In the end, Xiao YuAn was unable to resist them. When a black-clothed man saw that Xiao YuAn revealed a flaw, he clenched the sword in his hand, and aimed at the other’s chest without mercy.

The silver light cut through the sky, and as the carriage curtain rattled, warm blood splashed on Xiao YuAn’s face.

…

After a year of wandering around, the separation provoked by death, left behind an air of emptiness and sorrow. In the Imperial Palace of the Southern Yan Kingdom, Yan HeQing was attentively listening to a Minister’s report to the Imperial Court. But, at the beginning, Yan HeQing was overcome with grief, and some people asserted that he wouldn’t be able to deal with the government. Some even took the opportunity to rebel and try to usurp the throne; but in the end, they got their heads chopped off by Yan HeQing after the first sign of a plot appearing.

Instead of being as depressed as others had speculated, Yan HeQing devoted almost all of his energy into building up the government of the country and the military system. He made himself so busy, to the point where he wouldn’t be able to think about anything else, vowing to have a stable society, as well as a peaceful and prosperous united country.

“Your Majesty, the foreign envoys from the Western regions should be here in a few months to pay tribute.” A Minister leaned down to present his case.

Yan HeQing ‘hmphed’ and asked: “Are they the ones who broke apart the Western Shu Kingdom?”

“Answering to His Majesty, yes. This foreign country from the Western region can’t be underestimated. Even though it’s a small nomadic country, it’s also filled with fierce and barbaric people. However, even if they were able to break apart the Western Shu Kingdom’s territory, they can’t completely annex the Western Shu Kingdom. So, they’ll come to pay tribute because they want to use our hands in order to annex the Western Shu Kingdom in one fell swoop.”

Yan HeQing frowned.

As the Minister saw Yan HeQing’s displeasure, he hurried to say: “Your Majesty, I know that you also want to take over the Western Shu Kingdom. However, in this Minister’s humble opinion, we should make an alliance with them instead of establishing such a powerful rival force at a time when our national strength is still in process of becoming strong.”

Yan HeQing rubbed his eyebrows, thought about it for a while, and then said: “We’ll welcome the envoys first, and then we’ll make plans.”

After dealing with political affairs and other important matters, it was already noon when Yan HeQing finally got up and walked back to his bedchamber. Since he didn’t like to make a big fuss, no matter where he went, he would never bring a large number of people with him, only a few Imperial Bodyguards.

The Emperor’s indifference was well known throughout the Imperial Palace. In order to avoid being punished, the moment Yan HeQing returned to his bedchamber, the maids and Imperial Guards chose to avoid his way back as much as possible. So, when a maid suddenly flew over from one side, the Imperial Bodyguards around Yan HeQing froze in place.

But, right the next second, the Imperial Bodyguards reacted quickly as they reached to stop the maid, who seemed to have gone mad as she desperately lunged at Yan HeQing. When she was stopped and pulled away, she knelt on the ground, cut her finger, then wrote something on the ground with her blood.

Tian Xiang then shouted as she wrote: “Your Majesty, please look at this. Please look, this servant begs His Majesty to look at this.”

“What a mad woman! Get the hell out of here!” One Imperial Bodyguard roared as he went forward to pull Tian Xiang away, his action was so rough that he even aimed at Tian Xiang’s neck. However, someone suddenly held his wrist, stopping this motion. When the Imperial Bodyguard turned around and saw that it was Yan HeQing, he was scared to death: “Your Majesty, this lowly one failed to carry out his duty. This lowly one will take this mad woman away.”

Yan HeQing looked at him coldly, and a sense of overwhelming oppression fell on the Imperial Bodyguard, silencing him immediately.

Tian Xiang was still kneeling on the ground, still writing with her bleeding finger. Yan HeQing half crouched down, reached out to stop her, and asked: “What’s the problem?”

Tian Xiang shook her head violently and pointed at the ground: “Your Majesty, Look at this! Look at this!!”

Ahhhhhh stay away from mah boi 🤬🤬 (I’m happy that he got his strength back, but I just want him to be okay, no more injuries 😭😭)

Is YHQ going to finally read the “I love you” and realize that XYA is back???!!!
