Chapter 446: Heartfelt Speech! (2/2)

That would be a stupid thing to do.

“Are you done?” Mu Dingyi asked in a loud voice.

“I was finished, but after a thought, since I already started I thought that I might as well speak out all my grievances—–“ Li Muyang stated “I am afraid that there will be no chance to do so in the future.”

“———–”

“As I said earlier, I'm just an ordinary teenager from a small town called Jiangnan. On the way to school I fell into a conflict between great forces and encountered Cui Zhaoren. Of course, you all know what happened after. I accidentally killed Cui Zhaoren——To tell you the truth, I really did not want to kill him. If you kill a tiger, you will trigger a tiger's den, and then there will countless big tigers coming to hunt you down.”

Li Muyang turned to Cui Xichen and loudly said, “Duke, am I right?”

Cui Xichen's eyes darkened, like a blade stabbing towards Li Muyang.

He did not expect the boy to be so bold and dare to point his finger to him in public——and even pointed to the West Wind Emperor Chu Xianda.

Could it be that he knew that he was going to die so he did not care and planned to spurt out all the secrets of the imperial family and the conflict amongst the great forces?

If he dared to do so, he will only bring about his death and the condemnation of the world.

“There is cause and effect with everything, you reap what you sow.” Cui Xichen's voice was cold, mixed with endless resentment and imposingness. “The so-called conflict between the great forces is just your side of the case. The men of my Cui family have a heavy responsibility to serve the kingdom; would we casually attack an ignorant child? Besides, at that time, there were so many students on board, why was it that only you were attacked?”

“However, you have made one good point- do not provoke a group of tiger, because the end result is that you will be wounded by the group of tigers, and will be ripped to pieces until not a part of you remain.”

“Indeed.” Li Muyang nodded. “At that time your Cui family also sent people to hunt me down, all the way to the foot of the mountain of Starry Sky Academy——I was almost ripped to pieces. What was the name of one of your swordsmen? Right, he called himself by the name Gu Mo. His sword skills were indeed really good and I was almost killed.”

“——–”

Cui Xichen's palm gently quivered, hating the fact he could not slap that boy to death.

He was not satisfied with killing the members of the Cui family, he still wanted to destroy the Cui family's face in public—–He was going to far.

Li Muyang swept his eyes across the crowd, smiling: “Now you understand the true nature of this martial arts contest, don't you? This is nothing to do with promoting the younger generation, nor is Old immortal trying to seek talent for the country, but to avenge his son and to rebuild the reputation of the Still water sword school——”

“Same with the high and mighty Duke of the country. He did everything he could to kill me. Because by doing so he will be able to avenge Cui Zhaoren of the Cui family, and solve the knot in his heart——”

“Along the way, I have never taken the initiative to be an enemy of anyone. However, I found that I have enemies all across the world. When others scold you, you just have to have a good att.i.tude and let people scold you. If someone kills you, you'll just have to let them kill you. Otherwise, if you offend the little ones, you also provoke the old——-This is the sorrow of a n.o.body.”

“I know you all are now emotional, I know your blood is boiling, and I know you are expecting a great battle to come——-But, everyone, there are a lot of people like me, how would you choose when you are faced with the situation that I did?”

“———–”

The whole room fell into silence.

Li Muyang's words were extremely heartfelt.

All the people present, except those who sat high on the observatory platform, were more of the civilian population from the bottom cla.s.s.

The powerful and influential beings and the civilian population. These two social cla.s.ses had a natural antagonism.

After listening to Li Muyang's speech, they had to think about the question: if they were in Li Muyang's shoe, what choice would they make?

The smile on Chu Xianda's face had faded and his eyes had darkened.

Prince Fu still maintained a smile on his thin face but the smile was too cold, too icy.

When the other people heard the shocking speech of Li Muyang, all their faces went pale and turned to look at Emperor Chu Xianda to see how he would respond to this behaviour from Li Muyang.

Lu Xingkong smiled.

On the high platform, there was only Lu Xingkong who had a grin on his face, therefore his smile seemed abrupt and striking.
