Resolving crisis

Boom! Boom! The two attacks landed on Hakon's energy clad fists but Hakon didn't move an inch! He couldn't afford to! Because there was a crossbow arrow tip poking at his asshole!

There was a momentary awkward silence. Wind and Ken didn't attack any more. Hakon was still standing with his arms extended sideways. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead.

"Care to listen to me now?" Wind asked with a smirk. "Or shall we continue? Will you be able move around with an arrow up your ass?"

"You little bastards…!" Hakon snarled. He never hated someone so much in his life before. "I'll kill the three of you mercilessly!"

"Even if so, your name will go down in history as the commander who got screwed in his ass with an arrow shot by a girl" Wind mocked.

Hakon growled, gritting his teeth in anger.

"EMPYREAN ARMY!" Hakon suddenly shouted loudly, making himself audible over the din of war. "CEASE FIRE! Regroup at once!"

The empyrean army was good at following orders. They retreated immediately. Long family guards retreated as well. The fighting stopped temporarily. Both sides quickly tended to their wounded while staying vigilant with their weapons still brandished.

At once many eyes fell on Hakon's predicament. Even though Lan's attack couldn't possibly injure Hakon with his tough skin but it would make him a laughing stock behind his back. Long family guards were already chuckling internally.

"Bark what you want." Hakon snarled, staring daggers at Wind.

Wind calmly smiled and sheathed his green jade blade. "There are no traitors or rebels inside Long family castle or even under their wing." Wind said.

"Humph! You attacked my men and hid in this castle." Hakon spoke. "You have some audacity…"

"Yes I attacked your men because they were asking for it." Wind said nonchalantly. "But I am no rebel. This and that are two different things old man. I am Wind, young master and heir to the throne of Carny state. Our state has had no conflicts with Ji Empire, formerly the Mizu Empire. I've ended up here only through a series of coincidences. I am willing to meet with the Emperor and prove my innocence if it is called for."

"..." Hakon fell silent. No one could just boast to be a royalty in this world, lest they didn't fear death. Hakon had heard of Carny state which had been a small trade partner to the Empire and had posed no threat in its entire history. Wind's words were legit.

"Humph! Even if so, the girl you helped escape is a suspect." Hakon said.

"She is an orphan taken in by my father." Ken replied to this. "Suspicion doesn't equal to proof."

Although Ken said that bravely; inside he was very anxious. Huian's family background was known to him. Huian's father was a loyal commander in Emperor Mizu's army and was killed during the usurpation. Emperor Jiao would not let her live. The danger was still grasping the Long family tightly.

"Why don't we discuss matters like civilized men?" Wind offered. "You and your battalion can be our guests today and we'll gladly help clear all your suspicions. Long family has nothing to hide."

Ken gritted his teeth. This was too risky! But Wind had already discussed this with him earlier. They had little time to come up with a plan so Ken decided to trust Wind for the moment. This didn't help ease his anxiety though.

Hakon glanced at Ken. Ken sighed at once.

"Yes, be our guests. There is no need to shed blood. Instead we should drink and eat and talk peacefully. After all we are serving the same emperor and are fellow countrymen." Ken said elegantly, hiding his anxiety well.

"Humph! Very well." Hakon snorted. "We will maintain truce until we find any proof against you. We will be searching your castle thoroughly."

"We'll allow that if only you personally go through the search." Wind said. "We don't want hundreds of men upturning the castle."

"Heh! Then I will have you two give me a tour." Hakon said.

"Naturally." Wind replied calmly.

There was a lot of tension but both sides eventually eased up. Long family had naturally conceded. & if no proof was found against them, Empyrean army wouldn't be able to justify themselves if they behaved savagely. Even if the Emperor was backing them, if an innocent loyal force were offended & harmed without proof, there would be much political discord and upheaval. It'd only add fuel to the thoughts of revolution in the silent masses.

Both forces entered the castle peacefully. Some empyrean troops camped in the ground, others stayed in the main hall. Long family guards kept watch on them vigilantly. Hakon was lead by Ken and Wind around the castle and Hakon started searching thoroughly. No one could leave the castle for the time being.

Meanwhile inside the bounty hunters guild, Xiao had gained large amounts of yang chi through dual cultivation with almost every man currently inside the guild. Even more men were rushing there as they heard the rumor of a sexy sultry milf letting anyone fuck her.

Clapping sounds of Xiao's big hips echoed as a hunter humped against her from behind. There was another man lying under Xiao with his thick penis inside her vagina. One man was fucking Xiao's mouth while several others crowded around her, groping her breasts and body parts. It was an intense gangbang.

"Ahh I'm cumming!" A hunter exclaimed and ejaculated large amount of semen and yang chi inside Xiao's ass.

"Ugh me too!" The man underneath Xiao groaned and moved his lower body faster, pumping out several loads of semen inside her vagina. The man using Xiao's mouth also ejaculated and she swallowed every drop of his semen.

Quickly the men were pushed away and others took their place in fucking Xiao.

"Incredible! Her vagina is so tight even after a whole day of fucking!" A lucky hunter remarked as he drilled his penis inside Xiao's vagina.

"Oh, damn slut, you sure know how to suck." Another man groaned as his eyes rolled up. Xiao was very experienced in sex by now. She had sucked thousands of penises, thus she was able to give men heaven with just her mouth alone. It had only been a minute before the hunter couldn't contain himself and exploded his semen and yang chi inside Xiao. Her suction was so great that this man's balls got dry as his years worth of semen was forcefully created and consumed within moments. He fell down on his butt, panting and groaning before passing out.

Another man swiftly took over and slapped his meaty penis on Xiao's beautiful flushed face. Xiao chuckled before opening her mouth and taking the penis deep into her throat. Meanwhile her vagina & ass was wrapping snuggly tight around penises, giving heaven to the other two men. Her breasts were still lactating and two men were sucking on her nipples constantly. Xiao ruffled their hairs enjoying how their tongues felt on her sensitive nipples.

The sun eventually sat and stars twinkled in the night sky. It had been several more hours and now a strong hunter had lifted Xiao up from behind. Her legs were held and spread wide while the man shoved his penis back and forth inside Xiao's tight wet vagina.

Surprisingly there were no more takers for her bouncing breasts which were lactating with milk and yin chi, spraying the fluids on the floor. The men had all been drained! Only now some of them found it suspicious but they said nothing. They had an inkling that Xiao was using a dual cultivation technique but given the pleasure they had received by freely fucking the most beautiful woman they had ever seen; they didn't mind it at all. Plus they all had a bountiful harvest of yin chi and were eager to cultivate. Alas they had no yang chi left in them for the moment. They'd have to consume yang pills to cultivate.

"Oh! So good! Ahn!!" Xiao moaned and gasped. Her body was being moved up and down as a thick penis fucked her horny vagina nonstop.

"Ugh! Fucking slut! Take this!" The man shouted and ejaculated a thick stream of a bowl full of semen inside Xiao's thirsty vagina along with large amounts of yang.

"Ahnnn!!!" Xiao screamed as she felt the gush of chi and semen inside her. Unknowingly she sprayed her yin in form of fluids through her urethra, showering a man who had just walked in front of her.

"Ugh." The man who had been fucking Xiao, dropped her messily on the table and himself fell down on the floor, passing out. Xiao twitched uncontrollably for a while in afterglow of the orgasm. Her legs were spread wide shamelessly and her dense breasts were oozing with milk. A steam wafted off of her entire naked body.

Slowly she raised her head, propping herself on her elbows as she looked at the newcomer who was had been doused with her yin juices. Xiao giggled, patting her wet vagina and licking her lips as she gazed at this man seductively.

Swoosh! Steam wafted off the man, burning away the fluid that had been sprayed on him earlier. He displayed his level 7 Master realm cultivation.

Xiao's expression paused as she gazed at this man, considering how much yang she will be able to harvest if she got fucked by him.

But this man stood silently staring at her with cold eyes. He was a tall black man with a robust body. He was wearing black leather vest armor and black trousers. There was a large butcher knife shaped blade resting on his back. His short braided hair looked neat.

"Guild Master Maurice!" A hunter exclaimed. Others also shakily got up. Maurice observed their states keenly before glancing at Xiao who was frowning.

"Put on some clothes; slut." Maurice said coldly before glancing at others. There were still some hunters lying unconscious on the floor. "The rest of you; tell me if this is the Bounty Hunters Guild or a back alley brothel?" Maurice asked.

All heads hung low in shame.

"Get lost, all of you. You're no longer part of this guild." Maurice said coldly.

"N…no way!"

"Guild master you can't do this to us!"

"Get out of my sight before I lose my cool." Maurice said coldly not caring about these people.

Xiao had gotten off the table by now and found her clothes which she messily put on herself. Her expression was solemn.

"He is unfazed by my beauty? Does such a man even exist who isn't lustful towards me?" Xiao thought with a frown.

"You, wench." Maurice looked at Xiao.

"Xiao is the name." Xiao said with a snarl.

"Humph! Follow me to the office." Maurice said turning around and walked out.

---------------

In the forest on the outskirts of Wilka city, inside a secluded building called Chaos Hall, a fairly handsome man was reading a book with a frown. There were lots of books and scrolls piled up on his desk. This man was Wu Shang.

"Sigh. This Chaos technique is indeed a mystic level ancient technique." Wu shang uttered. "It has great power. It's just that these nuns have average talents. They couldn't unleash the full power of this technique." He shook his head. "Well anyways, there's nothing about healing mental illness in its healing skills chapters."

Wu Shang sighed, resting his chin in his palm. He had carelessly dual cultivated with Karisa nonstop and overused the 10 years of full moon technique, resulting in Karisa losing her mind and her dantian cracking. But Wu Shang was an Empyrean level dark doctor. He was able to mend Karisa's dantian. She could cultivate and use her techniques but…her mind was still broken. Thus Wu Shang turned to take references, reading the books of Order of Chaos to see if there was anything that could help alleviate Karisa' condition. But it turned out to be fruitless. Wu Shang was exhausted.

"Should I go back to Carny and seek Xiao's advice?" Wu Shang thought. "It was she who gave me this technique. She must know something about mitigating its side effects. I can also get to fuck her again. Ah Xiao…" Wu Shang sighed thinking about the woman he loved deeply.

"When will I get to see you again, hold you in my arms, kiss your lips, get naked and lick your vagina…" Wu Shang thought & smiled, licking his lips. Then he frowned looking down under the table. Karisa was on all fours under the table and had been sucking Wu Shang's penis all this time.

Sstakk! Wu Shang ruthlessly slapped Karisa's beautiful face, leaving his hand imprint on her white skin.

"Suck harder you useless cum-dump." Wu Shang cursed grabbing Karisa's neck and pulling her head further towards his crotch, shoving his penis deep into her throat. Karisa's eyes widened as she tried to cough but Wu Shang started thrusting into her mouth rapidly, deep-throating her then ejaculated yang enriched semen inside her throat directly.

He then got up sighing and pulled on a leash which was tied with a collar on Karisa' neck. He was treating her like a pet. Karisa too walked on all fours wherever Wu Shang led her.

"Since there is no cure for you currently, I can only take care of you by residing here." Wu Shang spoke. "Going to Carny will have to be postponed. I'm good enough a doctor to formulate a cure. I'll figure it out."

"Wu-Wu…" Karisa mumbled tugging on Wu Shang's pants looking up at him cutely.

"Oh, you want sex?" Wu Shang asked. "Or is it food?"

"Wu wu." Karisa kept mumbling.

"Ah, dumb bitch." Wu Shang sighed. "Well, what the hell." He muttered, slapping Karisa casually and pulling her white hair, throwing her on the floor. Then he whipped out his penis and pulled Karisa's legs upwards, shoving his penis inside her loose vagina, fucking her roughly. Karisa's huge breasts were squishing against the floor and she squealed happily with each thrust inside her. Her voice echoed in the chaos hall.

"What is your intention behind joining the guild? Who sent you here? Are you Emperor's spy?" Maurice asked as he stared at Xiao.

They were inside Maurice's office. He was seated on a stone stool facing Xiao who was sitting on similar stool across a stone table. The interior of the office was primitive and crude. Everything was made of either wood or stone. Maurice himself didn't seem too keen on fashion and was wearing a simple attire which actually looked rather dirty. But it also carried bloodstains, small cuts and rips and dust.

Xiao had been observing Maurice all this while and deduced his nature by now. Maurice was a no-bullshit, down to earth guy. Seemingly he had a strong work ethic, the reason why he was unfazed by Xiao's beauty.

"My intention is to dual cultivate with the many bounty hunter and gain back my former cultivation level quickly." Xiao answered honestly.

Maurice was momentarily taken aback. He reassessed this woman in front of him.

"What was your original cultivation level?" He asked.

"Level 6 Master realm." Xiao lied. If she told the truth, Maurice would not believe her and think that she's a liar. She decisively chose to state a level lower than Maurice' so that he wouldn't feel threatened in any sense either.

"Hmmm…" Maurice didn't ask for any specifics. They were bounty hunter guild, not Empyrean army who'd thoroughly investigate any applicant and constrain them into tight rules.

"Any sexual activity inside the guild fortress is forbidden by the rules." Maurice said. "You not only did exactly that, but also dual cultivated without others' consent."

"They are not little kids." Xiao retorted. "They wanted to fuck me, they got their wish & they are not complaining.

"…Long as you follow the rules, I'll stay off your back." Maurice said. "There are plenty loopholes in the rules I purposely left so everyone can have their freedom."

"I'll remember that." Xiao said.

"You're dismissed." Maurice said with a nod, no longer caring to talk.

Xiao was a mistress of Carny state in the past. She had had such attitude in the past too. She didn't take it personally. Maurice was just too professional.

"I have a request." Xiao however tried to test waters.

"I'm not going to dual cultivate with you." Maurice said without looking at her. He had started reading some documents instead.

Xiao snorted. "You have me all figured out haven't you?"

"It wasn't difficult from your profane display earlier." Maurice replied. He had seen Xiao spread her legs and pat her wet vagina sultrily. It was hard to have a good opinion about a woman after seeing such an action from her.

Bam! Xiao slammed the stone table and it shattered into large blocks of stones. Maurice was stunned at once at such brazenness. He finally looked at Xiao, finding fury in her eyes.

"I've seen the ugliest sides of every single man I've ever known except my late father and husband. I wouldn't be whoring myself out if it wasn't the courtesy of you men who take women as commodities and subject them to inhumane things just for the sake of pleasure." Xiao said in a breath, staring fearlessly at Maurice.

Maurice in turn didn't even flinch.

"You've seen nothing what men are capable of." He quipped.

"Is that a threat?" Xiao was feeling angrier by the second.

"Just a fact." Maurice replied. "I'm guessing you had a different request then? I'm all ears."

"…" Xiao glared at him for a few long seconds before taking a deep breath to calm herself. "Recruit all the men back whom you kicked out because of me." She said.

"Why?" Maurice asked.

"I don't want them coming after me for revenge." Xiao replied.

"I am under no obligation to grant your request." Maurice said. "However I do understand the possible predicament that might befall you. So I will recruit them back if you take up a certain mission."

Xiao frowned. This was getting trickier.

"What mission?" She asked.

"A mission involving goblins." Maurice replied.

-------------

"Are you satisfied now, Commander Hakon?" Ken asked with a frown. He was very upset having to show every nook and cranny of his castle to his enemy. This was the same as revealing all the secrets and strategic aspects of the castle. If a battle occurred again, Long family castle would be taken down within hours! Hakon had even seen through their treasury and assessed all the financial assets of Long family. This was already upsetting enough. But Ken bore through it just for the sake of resolving this crisis of war.

"Humph!" Hakon snorted.

"You've seen through every part of the castle yourself, Commander Hakon." Wind said calmly. "Did you find any rebels hiding anywhere? We've even shown you all the secret pathways and provided a complete map-plan of the castle. What you are suspicious of, is not here. Long family is loyal to the emperor."

"…"Hakon didn't care whether or not Long family was harboring rebels. He was clear on Emperor's intention of destroying Long family. He was only looking for an excuse. But Wind and Ken had been so clean about everything, that he could find no excuses.

Running out of options, Hakon played the Huian card again.

"That girl, the suspicious guest of your Long family…" Hakon spoke. "I want to see her."

Wind sighed. It eventually came down to it. This was clear enough that Hakon had no intention of letting Long family off. Huian was a weakness that couldn't be rid of, given Ken's feelings for her. But at this point, Wind smiled internally.

"A person may be a weakness, but if used properly, they may also prove to be a strength." Wind thought. "Hakon, I'll play your card back at you, just you wait." He sneered internally.

"Well, so be it." Wind uttered.

"Wind…" Ken glanced at Wind with anxiousness and a warning tone.

"It'll be alright, Ken." Wind replied shedding the honorifics, addressing Ken in the same manner as he did, not showing any weaker stance.

"We'll fulfill this demand of yours, Commander Hakon." Wind then said to him. "But it's already gotten so late at night. Why don't we have dinner together? There's already a feast prepared for your army. The girl you demand shall be brought over by the time you're done eating."

Hakon stared at Wind, wondering what he was planning. In any case, no one could escape the castle anyway, so he decided to play along and see what trick Wind had up his sleeve.

"Then so be it." Hakon relented.

"Please, this way." Wind said with a courteous smile and gestured Hakon to come along.

A sumptuous feast had indeed been prepared. This was Long family's friendly stance towards Empyrean army. Of course the latter tested the food for any drugs or poison before Hakon asked his men to dig in.

Drinks were poured and the tense atmosphere turned mellow. Soon laughter echoed. Beautiful women were brought over according to Wind's plan. There were plenty female servants to entertain the manly soldiers. Wind had a thick skin and cared little about people. He merely wanted to resolve the crisis by any means necessary. If they were to fail in appeasing and pulling this battalion into their favor, the result would be a massacre. Then wouldn't all the women be forced savagely by these men? The end result would be the same. At least according to the current plan, no one would have to die and live in slavery.

Wind sighed. Hakon had downed a whole barrel of the strongest liquor but he was still sober.

"This bastard…doesn't he get drunk?" Ken muttered to Wind as they looked at Hakon from a corner.

"I'm afraid, we have no options left but to bet it all on Huian." Wind said. "I'm sorry Ken. I know you like her."

"..." Ken fell silent. He was clenching his fists and gritting his teeth. Wind apparently had a plan B in case of the current situation and it involved making Huian seduce Hakon to win him over.

Ken finally he spoke after a full minute of silence. "Even if I have to go down to my death bed today, I will not let another man soil Huian's honor."

"You're a good man." Wind said quickly. "Good men indeed die young."

Ken glanced at Wind.

"I'm willing to lend you a hand in this battle. Certainly with my secret potion mixed into the drinks, undetected by their testing methods; Empyrean battalion is as good as fish food now. Their energies will go haywire. Their techniques will not work correctly. We can kill them all off and overwhelm Hakon with sheer numbers." Wind said confidently. "But are you sure you want to wage war with the Emperor right now? Huian will survive, yes; but everyone else will eventually die at the hands of Emperor Jiao. Your father, your loyal comrades, your subjects…eventually perhaps even you. What future does Huian have without you?"

"Enough!" Ken sighed and massaged his temples. "Why…why is this happening? Why must we concede our honor, pride and loved ones to this vile Emperor?" Ken knelt down down, covering his face. "What did my family ever do against him? What is wrong with being self sufficient? Why must he target us? Why can't we live on in peace? I…I'll bloody kill him!"

Wind sighed half kneeling and patted Ken's shoulder. "We WILL kill him, if that's what it takes to obtain peace and freedom. I will fight alongside you to the bitter end anytime you want. But to bring a great change in the world, one person's power is too small. We must band together, we must persevere and we must all make sacrifices. Revolution…demands sacrifices."

"That's right." Suddenly a soft voice came from behind them. Both boys turned to find Huian standing there. She looked beautiful. Her bright red hairs were tied in a lovely bun. She was draped in a peach colored satin dress, translucent at the right places, sticking to her body. The purpose was obvious.

"Huian…" Ken uttered sadly.

"Mister Wind is right." Huian spoke sadly. "We must all make sacrifices. I'm willing to do what it takes to ensure the safety of others around me."

Wind sighed glancing at Huian. The daughter of commander Oreon had inherited his bravery for sure. At this moment, this girl looked stronger than any man.

"Let's go." Huian said walking past them.

Ken and Wind stood up slowly, walking behind her with rueful expressions. A curtain was opened and Huian stepped out where everyone could see her. Hundreds of hungry lustful gazes locked onto her immediately.

Huian felt as though she was naked before everyone. But she gritted her teeth and kept walking towards the decision she had taken.
