Chapter 428: Road Paved with Blood (2/2)
Lin Xiao shook his head. It was similar to that but it was not mutual destruction. While he had told Xia Ye that it was fine even if he failed, Xia Ye didn't come to him just because Lin Xiao needed followers. What Xia Ye wanted was simply revenge, revenge against someone who had made his life miserable back then.
As for what had happened, Lin Xiao didn't know everything for sure. What he knew was that Sun Kingdom Emperor had done something towards Xia Ye that made the young man adamant to do revenge.
Even at the cost of his own life.
”Things should have been able to end more peacefully if only there's another way.” Prince Lin Xian sighed. However, it was Xia Ye's decision and there was no way for them to change the young man's mind when he had decided on something.
Lin Xiao didn't say anything. Whether Xia Ye would be able to survive or not depends on fate. He would only come searching for the young man in the future.
”Well, we're also busy here.”
Prince Lin Bo Wang, who received the news looked as if he was hit by a large boulder with no chance for him to recover. Looking at his complexion, everyone could say that he was already feeling extremely bad and probably will falter at any time.
”How about Wenyan and the others?”
”They?” Lin Xiao shrugged. ”They should have been able to finish their work and disappeared right now. What's important for us right now is to wait for the Phoenix Inheritance to be finished and the selected one come out.”
Thud!
Several women were already thrown out of the space while they were all waiting here. Those who didn't last long were people who didn't have much affinity with the Phoenix and naturally had no chance to be accepted.
Both Fan Ling and Princess Lan Yi Hua hadn't come out at all.
”He'll wait and we should wait too.”
”What if he attacks us?” Lin Yun pointed at Prince Lin Bo Wang with worried tone. If the prince attacked them too, it wouldn't do them anything good. They would be forced to fight an unfair battle.
”He won't.”
”Yes?”
”He needs to concoct better plan first. Besides, with his people wounded like that, do you think that he'll immediately attack?”
”Reinforcement….”
”They're all heading towards the capital city, to the palace to be exact. No one will be left behind here. Our problem later will not be him.” Lin Xiao narrowed his eyes. He knew for sure that the one who would fight them later would not be Prince Lin Bo Wang but someone else who was also very powerful and might threaten their lives.
Prince Lin Yan looked at Lin Xiao and sighed. ”You should stop provoking people.”
”I'm not.”
”And the opponent who will fight you later, did you not provoke him?”
Lin Xiao's lips curled up to form a sneer. ”I didn't provoke him at all, but someone else in our group will.”
Looking at Lin Xiao's eyes and where he looked at, the others naturally knew who he meant. However, they all stayed silent as they watched Prince Lin Bo Wang, who was trying hard to be patient in this place. If only he was not waiting for the result of the Phoenix Inheritance, he would have returned back to the palace right away.
