Chapter 313: The Battle is Lost
The other person then said with realization, ”In the world today, only we will have the might to fight with the Water of Heavenly Wind. Furthermore, we are the only ones who will never reach a compromise with them! Thus, Ling Tian will definitely choose to work with us for his revenge! Big brother, while this plan is a good one, it seems a little devious.”
The purple-robed man then snorted, ”Devious? What did we do?! In fact, we didn't even send out a single person to influence this matter. We have only watched silently by the side. Everything has been planned and executed by the Water of Heavenly Wind. In what way are we devious?”
The other person then said carefully, ”We had long had news about this and could have stopped this matter, but…”
”Stop?” The purple-robed man turned around and said with a chilly look, ”Why should we stop it? Second brother, this is the war for hegemony and not skirmishes in the pugilistic world. There is no need to talk about virtue and morals! Your thinking is far too old-fas.h.i.+oned! This is also the reason why I can't be a.s.sured to hand over a larger authority to you!”
”Not only will we not stop this matter, we should even encourage it!” He said with a sneer with killing intent filling his eyes, ”Ling Xiao must die today! If Northern Wei and the Shui Family cannot stop him, I will kill him personally if it is necessary! As long as Ling Xiao dies today, the Water of Heavenly Wind and Ling Tian will definitely be enemies! Are you unaware that Ling Xiao's death would be tied to the future of the continent?”
”Ah?” The other person exclaimed, ”Big brother, this isn't the best right? We have just silently admitted Yan'er and Ling Tian's wedding. Ling Xiao… he is, after all, Yan'er's future father-in-law. We are relatives! Big brother, even if Ling Xiao doesn't die, both our families would still be extremely close to each other. But if we were to kill Ling Tian's father here, how will Yan'er feel? This… isn't this a little immoral?”
The two people who were speaking were the two giants of the Yu Family, Yu ManLou and Yu ManTang.
Hearing what Yu ManTang had said, Yu ManLou flew into an outrage, ”B*st*rd!
What morality? Ling Xiao is naturally Yan'er's father-in-law! But won't that be true even after his death? As long as Ling Xiao dies here today, we will be able to ensure that Ling Tian will never join hands with the Shui Family! If not, how would a single Yan'er be able to control Ling Tian? After observing Ling Tian for so long, do you really think that a single lady will be able to change his mind? If we aren't careful, the thousand year foundation of our Yu Family will be the one getting destroyed! Do you dare to make such a gamble?”
Yu ManTang lowered his head without saying a single word. While he still disagreed in his heart, he no longer voiced out his objection. He was extremely clear that once his big brother decided something, it was impossible for others to change his mind.
Yu ManLou then sighed and said in a gentle tone, ”Second brother, you have an honest and sincere personality. While your kindness is a good thing among family members, you have to understand that our enemies, be they Water of Heavenly Wind, Northern Wei or Ling Tian, will never talk about pugilistic rules with us. In this world, one has to be unscrupulous in order to ensure his survival! At this moment, what is the reason for the Shui Family to infiltrate Heavenly Star? Isn't it all to wipe out our Yu Family? Since they aren't righteous, why do we have to talk about morality with them? Now that they have offended someone who they shouldn't offend, they are only shooting themselves in the foot! Presently, this is the best chance for our Yu Family to rule the continent! If we don't grasp this opportunity, I will never be able to forgive myself! When we die, we wouldn't be able to face our ancestors in the afterlife!”
Yu ManTang then said with a look of worry, ”Big brother, the ancestors had instructed us to never fight for hegemony or we will definitely be destroyed! Is big brother going to ignore those teachings completely?”
Yu ManLou gave a mocking smile, ”Second brother, who was the one who set the ancestor's teachings? Isn't he just the family head from a thousand years ago? At that time, the Yu Family indeed didn't have the
the might to rule the world! But now, things are different! With chaos breaking out at any moment, no one will be able to fully insulate themselves from the chaos! Our Yu Family is just going with the flow, and we don't have any other choice. How are we ignoring the ancestor's teachings? Besides, as the family head, don't I have the right to change the teachings slightly? It is no more than a rule that a family head had set. Don't I have the right to change it as the present family head?”
Yu ManTang then said solemnly, ”Big brother, you should remember the heaven-shaking character that appeared in our Yu Family three hundred years ago, right?”
As Yu ManTang mentioned that, even Yu ManLou had a look of respect on his face, ”I naturally know, he was ancestor Yu FengYun. He was invincible in the continent and the number one character in our Yu Family from the ancient times!”
Yu ManTang let out a bitter laugh, ”When ancestor Yu FengYun was about to pa.s.s on, there was someone who had asked him about the ancestor's teaching, hoping that he would leave behind a few words. At that time, ancestor Yu FengYun was already 133 years old and in a sickly condition. Upon hearing the words 'ancestor's teachings', his eyes lit up and use his last breath to say a few words: One can fight with men but not with the heavens! Big brother, have you forgotten about that?”
