Chapter 238: Their Decision (1/2)

”Naturally.”

They returned back to the group. Lin Xiao could see that the others were looking at him with curious gaze. He knew that it might be time for him to explain to his men about his real identity too.

He slowly took out a necklace. The necklace was brown in color as if it was made of bronze. In the center of the necklace was a small dragon. The entire color of the necklace was brown, which made it looked like a cheap accessory.

However, the people here were all not ordinary people. They all instantly understood what Lin Xiao meant when he took out that pendant… which was extremely surprising for them.

”You're a Royal Family member?” Han Jiang finally asked first.

Lin Xiao nodded. ”Yeah, I just figured this out around a year ago. Before that, I don't even know I have this with me.”

The memory of when he found the letter back in the house resurfaced to his mind as Lin Xiao let out a hollow laugh. It was quite the irony for him to find out that he was a Royal Family member after living as an ordinary country bumpkin person for years.

”I see…” Fan Ling's eyes glowed with interest, but she accepted quickly. For someone like her, who had already seen quite a lot of wonders ever since she was young, this was nothing much.

Lu Jian rubbed his chin. ”No wonder you said that you want to sit there. It seems that you have your own reason.”

Princess Lan Yi Hua looked at the necklace as she thought of something. Afterwards, her face turned slightly red but no one else could notice it in this darkness as their attention was focused on the necklace.

Lin Xiao could see that the four of them were quick to accept that. However, there was one problem. He looked over to Xia Ye, who was looking at Lin Xiao with complicated gaze.

”Is there anything you want to ask me, Xia Ye?”

”That's… do you have any relationship with Prince Lin Fei?”

”He's an enemy.”

Xia Ye nodded. He thought for a moment before adding. ”The Emperor?”

”Probably long distance relative that I didn't care?” Lin Xiao asked back with uncertain tone. He had no interest to figure out more about his parent's relationship with the Emperor. All he knew was that his parents were murdered because of him…

He hated himself for that fact.

Prince Lin Xian and Prince Lin San both didn't know who killed their parents because they were still nothing more than children back then. Only Prince Lin Yan might know something and Lin Xiao would try to ask him later.

Xia Ye nodded then relaxed. ”Then it didn't matter. I only want to kill the Emperor and the ninth prince.”

”Grudges?” Fan Ling asked in relaxed tone.

”Yeah.” Within that one word, the others could feel his burning desire of revenge and also rage deep inside. They were all tactful enough to not ask for more information because they knew that it would only hurt the young man.
