After Nangong Yi left, Tuoba Kui could no longer calm his heart. He had slept with the princess of the Xianbei Empire and nearly beaten her to death. If the king of Xianbei wanted revenge, he could easily crush Tuoba Kui to dust with a flick of his finger.

Last night's commotion had probably been heard by the entire Great Jin army, and sooner or later it would reach the ears of passersby from the Xianbei Empire. Alternatively, he could coax her into turning back willingly and become his woman out of her own free will.
However, this method also seemed unfeasible. Helana's heart was set on Nangong Yi, and the gap between him and Nangong Yi was more than just a little. She would never fall for him, and there was no need for him to humiliate himself.
