Is the Guide Reborn?

“…” Cen Zhen would be a fool if he couldn’t tell that Man Yun was flirting with him, but he really didn’t expect it. After all, in his mind, Man Yun’s favorite type is like Pan. He and Pan are immensely different in both appearance and personality. 

“Is the long-haired man over there your Sentinel? I heard that Sentinel and Guide are a particularly loyal race. They have a saying called marking, and they will only be bound to the same person for their entire life?” Man Yun put his hand around the gentle woman’s waist, and the latter immediately climbed Man Yun’s shoulders softly, nodded, and said: “Yes~” 

“Then have you marked with him?” Man Yun turned his head to look at Cen Zhen’s eyes. For some reason, he particularly liked this pair of blue eyes, so much that he wanted to dig them out and put them on a puppet he could manipulate at will. 

“……” Cen Zhen remained silent. He was used to silence like this. His silence did not indicate timidity or guilt. Instead, it showed a calmness and inscrutableness. 

The most annoying thing for a superior is the feeling of not being in control, especially when he just got off a woman who resisted with silence and non-cooperation. 

“Speak!” Man Yun suddenly crushed the glass in his hand. The wine and glass fragments splashed everywhere, and the sound of the shattering scared the birdman bartender so much that he dared not move. The wine glass was gone without a trace, but Man Yun’s palm was unharmed. 

Man Yun and the woman wearing high heels earlier, Sister Hong, are from the same tribe. Their skin looks soft, but it is actually hard armor. Ordinary sharp objects can’t cause him any harm at all. The scars on his face that can never be erased were caused by his nemesis – these were all told to Pan by Man Yun after he fell in love with him. 

This so-called nemesis is also a big shot. Probably because he is immensely high in both power and age, he didn’t end up falling in love with any of the protagonists. However, he admired Yao Jin and Pan very much and helped them many times. 

Cen Zhen sorted out the novel’s original content and responded, “Marked.” He felt that if he didn’t speak up, his and Lian Yu’s heads would be the next to be crushed. 

Man Yun still had a face full of discontent, but at least he softened a little because of this sentence. His eyes were violent and gloomy as if he had thought of countless ways to teach this man who made him angry a lesson, “After marking, if one dies between Sentinel and Guide, then……” 

“The other will die too.” Cen Zhen said. If one dies, the other will live a life worse than death. If there is no strong desire or reason to live, the Sentinel’s partner will choose to commit suicide at the first opportunity. “Not bad.” Man Yun smiled with satisfaction, “As long as you control one, you can control two.” He raised his hand, and someone immediately lowered a sharp blade to Lian Yu’s neck, “I am a gentle and kind person, and I never force people to do anything. I just like you to take the initiative, cooperate, and lie under me willingly… I think you know what I mean.” 

The lion’s angry roar almost covered all the sounds around Cen Zhen’s ears, like boiling water, making the surrounding environment, which was already on the verge of exploding, even more tense and impatient. Cen Zhen looked back at Lian Yu, who was embarrassed by his hair being pulled, revealing his fragile throat. Knowing that Lian Yu still had his hearing closed, Cen Zhen turned sideways and said to him: “Lian Yu, did you hear that? He threatened me with your life.” 

Lian Yu closed his eyes and took a deep breath. People around him thought he was too scared to speak, but only Cen Zhen knew that he was suppressing his anger, “….You mean?” 

Anyway, his thought was that if Man Yun dared to touch Cen Zhen even just once, he would let Man Yun die. As for whether this would result in not being able to enter the slave market and save Yao Jin… who cares if he dies? Saving people is just a side quest of traveling. If the traveling becomes unpleasant, who cares about saving life? 

“I mean…” Cen Zhen put his hand on the bar and touched the lion’s front paw, “Have a safe trip.” 

Lian Yu: “……” 

Lian Yu symbolically ‘struggled’, “Be a human! Isn’t my life more important than your chastity?!” 

“Of course, my chastity is more important.” 

“I’ve long known that you’re frigid!” 

“How about you, the sex-hungry, help me out here?” 

“Get out!” 

“… Boss,” the gentlewoman suddenly lowered her voice and whispered in Man Yun’s ear, “I think these two people are suspicious… Although I’ve never met a Sentinel before, aren’t they all very powerful combat-type people? How could they be so easily suppressed by our two men?” 

Man Yun didn’t comment, but his eyes wandered over to Cen Zhen and Lian Yu. He didn’t ask about the identities of these two people or why they came to Whale Star, because this question was not important at all. No matter what they were like in the past, when they came here, their life and death were in his hands. 

The total population of the Sentinel Guide race is small, and the racial characteristics are relatively low-key and mysterious. Even if there are a few Dark Sentinels that are famous in the universe, they are all elusive guys. In addition, due to physical reasons, they are closed off and only mate with people of the same race. Also, due to their breeding solely through vitro cultivation, their genes and bloodlines are rarely spread out. 

This has led to the fact that most people, including Man Yun, know very little about the Sentinels and Guides. They only know that their weakness is at the back of the neck. Those who see a neck guard are either Alpha Omega or Sentinel Guides. 

“And the most famous fact about the Sentinels is their keen five senses. We are so noisy here, and you see that they don’t show any discomfort. I suspect…” The gentle woman narrowed her eyes dangerously: “…They are not marked Sentinel and Guide at all, but two Guides!” Her logic is very smooth. The black-haired ones don’t care about the life and death of the long-haired ones, and the long-haired ones have such a low force value. Doesn’t it round off to two Guides? 

Man Yun was so annoyed. He just wanted to find a beauty to sleep peacefully. Why were all of them so troublesome? “Tsk… Didn’t the third bro say he caught a thing that he didn’t know whether it was an Omega or a Guide a few days ago, and locked it in a cage? Let the third bro bring the person over.” “Okay!” The gentle woman got the order and quickly twisted her waist to arrange it. 

Man Yun’s sexual desire was crushed so badly that he no longer wanted to be polite to the person he aimed to spend the night with. With a chin-raising movement, his subordinates lifted Cen Zhen from the chair with great tact, tied his hands and feet with ropes, and threw him next to Lian Yu. 

After being tied and thrown roughly, the lion calmed down instead, like a big cat being stroked, strolling leisurely to find an open space, and lying on his side to rest. 

“Did you hear that? They caught a Guide a few days ago.” Lian Yu whispered, “Do you think there’s such a coincidence?” 

Cen Zhen understood what Lian Yu meant. Sentinels may act alone, but Guides in general would never be alone. Moreover, the universe may not show signs of one Sentinel Guide for several years. Now, with Cen Zhen and Lian Yu, there are three of them. 

This really makes people suspicious… 

“I hope it’s an Omega,” Cen Zhen said, “I haven’t seen an Omega yet. The book says they also have pheromones. Everyone has a specific scent, and the main purpose of emitting pheromones is to stimulate heat and promote mating.” 

“You want to see an Omega?” Lian Yu was about to say something, but a strong man behind him kicked him and said fiercely, “What are you mumbling about? Shut up!” 

Although Lian Yu couldn’t hear what the other party said, the kick’s intention was obvious. Cen Zhen raised his eyes, memorized the man’s appearance, and announced his death in his heart. 

You dared to hit my man in front of me? 

Ten minutes later, a group of people outside the tavern swaggered in. The leader had a weak face and was skinny as if all the energy in his body had been sucked out. He approached arrogantly, but his attitude towards Man Yun was still very respectful. 

“Brother, I just took off my pants when you called me here…” The third bro brought the little guy behind him like a chicken to him, “What’s wrong with this guy? If you wish to interrogate him, I will help you torture him.” 

The man under his command had blue hair, black cheeks, blood, and some indescribable dirt, and his wrists and ankles exposed had sunburn marks. When he got stomped on the ground viciously, his eyes were filled with tears because of the pain. 

“……” To be honest, Cen Zhen was a little disappointed, but he still had a conscience and didn’t show it. 

“Let him go identify.” Man Yun said impatiently, “Are these two his people? Are they a Sentinel or Guide?” 

“Oh? Two more?” The third bro looked at the two people tied to the ground excitedly. He didn’t know what he was excited about. He bent down and pulled the dirty blue hair of the man under his feet, forcing him to raise his head. “Did you hear what the eldest brother said? Go identify! If you dare not speak, I will cut off your tongue!” 

Pan looked over with tears in his eyes. Even though his scalp was about to be torn off, he still gritted his teeth and said nothing. He blinked away his tears and looked at the two men before him with indescribable expressions. 

“……” 

He blinked again, wondering if he was dreaming. “……” 

“Speak up! You damn.” The third bro kicked Pan’s shoulder and almost sent him flying. Pan hit the bar chair heavily. Man Yun was almost affected and glared at the third bro with dissatisfaction. The third bro quickly pretended to be stupid and apologized, and then reached out to grab Pan’s ankle roughly. 

“Wait a minute.” Cen Zhen suddenly spoke. As soon as he spoke, Man Yun immediately looked over with interest. Lian Yu also looked at him sideways, not understanding what Cen Zhen wanted to say at this time. 

“He’s crying so hard, let’s wash his face.” 

Man Yun: “……” 

“Huh?” The third bro raised his voice, sounding very dangerous, “How dare you try to speak here?” 

Cen Zhen repeated seriously and sincerely: “I’m serious, wash his face.” In the original text, Man Yun fell in love with Pan’s face at first sight, and thus embarked on the road of deep affection and being licking dog simp. 

“Wash his face? Wash face, right?!” The third bro raised his hand and took a glass of pure water from the inside of the bar, and splashed it on Pan’s face who was about to get up from the ground. 

Pan: “……” Bro, he was the one who provoked you, why did you splash me?

Translator’s Note:

I have no excuse. The delay was 100% due to me slacking off and not holding myself accountable. I don’t even believe myself when I say I will catch up and complete this novel before this year ends, but trust me this is my intention. I’m not giving up and am actively adjusting.
