453 Abandon?! (2/2)
”I believe that the Jun Family doesn't doubt that it had been Your Majesty's act. However, their family members — whether alive or dead — have done too much for Tian Xiang! And, this 'too much' is the reason here!”
Mr. Wen continued in a serious tone, ”The Jun Family's members have been the mainstay of the Tian Xiang Empire for the past few decades. They had somewhat saved Tian Xiang, and have been its greatest servants! Tian Xiang has tens of thousands of miles under its territory, and has a huge populace because of their hard work. The masses live in peace and tranquility. And, this is a result of the Jun Family's blood and sweat. This is because of the contributions of countless men of the Jun Family. After all, their people have expended immeasurable efforts to make such a situation possible.”
He continued to smile, ”So, put yourself in their place, Your Majesty. Would you ever think of destroying this country if you had done so much for it, and had paid two generations of blood for it? Would you destroy your greatest accomplishment? Would you think of destroying the safety and joy of millions of people?”
”You're right! The Jun Family is too kind. They would never do it!” A light flashed in the Emperor's eyes as he quickly jumped up. He circled excitedly, and his face started to glow again.
”However, Your Majesty will have to give them some explanations when the time comes. So, I'll give you one word of advice…” Mr. Wen smiled mysteriously. He turned down his palm and spoke, ”Abandon!”
”Abandon?” The emperor trembled. His joyous expression froze, and he was left to stare blankly, ”Abandon…?” His heart was in agony. ”But, that is my most elite force. They have won so many battles over the years! They have given everything for so many years to make me Emperor!”
”Do I really need to abandon them?”
”Yes, abandon them! Do it even if you don't want to — you have no choice!” Mr. Wen spoke without hesitation, ”You'll have to face the Jun Family if you don't abandon the Blood Sword Hall! But, the Jun Family can shake the entire world in confrontation! So, would you dare to confront them? And, the Emperor might be next if the situation worsens. Your life and the lives of the entire Imperial Family will be in danger!”
The Emperor's face became gloomy, and his body started to sway.
”Abandon the Blood Sword Hall! Not for Jun Zhan Tian! Nor for Jun Wu Yi — but for Jun Mo Xie!” Mr. Wen sighed and continued, ”Jun Zhan Tian and Jun Wu Yi have spent a lot of blood for Tian Xiang during their lives! So, there's no need to doubt their sentiment for Tian Xiang! These two men won't do too much if you look at it from a humane perspective! So, I'm sure they won't do anything drastic even if they become fully aware that Jun Wu Hui's death was your doing. That's because… the Jun Family's blood, their effort, the entirety of Jun Zhan Tian's life, and half of Jun Wu Yi's life — have all been for the Tian Xiang Empire! Even the lifetimes of Jun Wu Hui and Jun Wu Meng have been for this nation along with the deaths of those Jun youngsters!
”Tian Xiang is the pillar for the Jun Family. It's the fruit of their labors, and it's also their biggest solace!
”I'm sure that Your Majesty would only need to unrestrainedly reward and apologies to Jun Zhan Tian even if genuinely gets some conclusive evidence. And, you could then swear an oath and uphold it. They will also hold their pride and accept it. They won't do it for official positions. But, they'll do it for the country's people! I'm not wrong, Your Majesty. Jun Zhan Tian and Jun Wu Yi are good men who work for this nation's people. They are real, respectable, and brave men! Therefore, you can disregard those two!
”But Jun Mo Xie is different — he's completely different! He has his father's ability to lead soldiers. He had never shown his key traits before. He had always hidden his talents! But, Jun Mo Xie is acting like that now! He has stood out since the last half-a-year! He was only a debauchee wastrel in the past. But, he's like an unrestrained storm now! He could've been stopped before he had left Tian Xiang. But, he's a full-fledged eagle which has spread its wings now that he's back from Southern Heaven City. He is young, but his power has soared above the nine heavens. He's a hero who overlooks the world, and dares everything!
”Moreover, he has been vindictive ever since this vicious personality of his has arrived! And, his behavior is even more merciless. His means are unwavering, and he doesn't hesitate while making a decision to kill. You genuinely can't afford to be at fault with him! And, he also has that powerful backing. So, he won't have any misgivings because of it. He will look at the world disdainfully if this continues. I've observed something upon his return today — no one holds any value in his eyes! No matter who they are! He doesn't care about spilling blood, and he's indifferent to any crime! Such a man is the most dreadful kind! Your Majesty needn't worry about Jun Zhan Tian or Jun Wu Yi getting their hands on a conclusive proof of what happened those days. But, everything will come to an end if this kid gets his hands on them!”
”Is there no alternative to abandoning them? I am very…” The Emperor's complexion turned pale as he clenched his fist. It seemed that he had made up his mind.
”This is the safest and the most dependable method. We have to deal with someone like Jun Mo Xie… So, we have to be on guard that this Jun Mo Xie doesn't find anything to hold on to. Your Majesty, you must know that the main difference between Jun Mo Xie and Jun Zhan Tian is that the former doesn't have any feelings towards Tian Xiang. And, from that time… Jun Mo Xie… he…” There was a strange light in Mr. Wen's eyes.
”He what…?” His Majesty asked.
”He ignores people… In fact, he might not even consider them as 'people'! He's extremely cold-blooded. And, I saw him while he was killing people. His expression maintained the same tranquility throughout the time he coldly went-about killing them. You must know that one's eyes will undergo some fluctuations even if one kills a chicken or a dog. This is because there would be surge in their energy. But, Jun Mo Xie didn't react like that at all! His expression might've belied some emotion, but his eyes remained calm. In fact, killing a person was the same to him that eating is to a hungry person… It was like a natural course of action…”
