“At that ti Rizhu

“No, he hasn’t changed When he first the joined the Golden Roc Fort, he pretended to be obedient, but his eyes and actions were suspicious I should have suspected hiuan Nu trailed off

“There were soRizhu responded in disdain and thought to hiiven But if he betrays over and over again, then he is aHe is an almost uselessRizhu could not make his conclusion based only upon a traitor’s words Therefore, he decided to ure out whether or not he was Gu Lun’s son Everything went as expected, except that the Dragon King had stolen his Flaht to the point

He was really fond of that horse

“What do you want, to avenge your faion?” he had asked Gu Shenwei

King Rizhu asked bluntly, as he was tired of talking in circles Gu Shenas overwheler and hatred, whichRizhu’s question

His inner hatred had never lessened He had been forcing himself to oppress it all this time, but every once in awhile, he would be overpowered by it, like now Killing the Lord of Norland becained the ecstatic scene after he killed his foe A voice deep inside of hie now

“Give me his skull,” Gu Shenwei said calmly, without a shi+ver in his voice At last, he had overcome the temptation of hatred After a fierce battle in his ht ten top ’s earded it as a good opportunity toHe replied, “Of course, I will It is useless toa dead man”

“So you did not hire the Golden Roc Fort?” Gu Shenwei asked

“Believe it or not, I did not kill him I did intend to kill Gu Lun and even worked out a plan, but the Golden Roc Fort took actions before I did They did not kill your faers want to watch their foes die slowly, and they enjoy torturing them as they die However, paid killers only care about the results instead of process”

Although Gu Shenas an avenger, he only cared about results Even so, King Rizhu’s words hts as King Rizhu, but killers were an exception

Si Rizhu looked, he was actually better at leading a person’s thoughts than the cunning Wei Song He had never ed to attribute Gu Lun’s death to the people there Apart fro Rizhu, the Minister of the Central Plain (who’d had conflicts of interest with Gu Lun) was also a suspect in his death

“Wasn’t Wei Song’s son involved in that assassination?” King Rizhu suggested, as he had heard this froh, leaving the rest for the Dragon King to consider

“How did Gu Lun, my father… kill your son?” asked Gu Shenwei

According to the well-known story, the I Rizhu’s son as ruthless assassins were known to do But Gu Shenwei could hardly believe this He remembered his father as an honorable man confident in his martial arts skills, ould never resort to an assassination

Belittling his dead son and defending his foe was against King Rizhu’s conscience He took the wine bottle with his hands, poured a bowl of wine for hiulp Then, he proceeded to tell his story in a more emotionless manner, as if it didn’t involve him at all

The rumor was that the incident was caused by a wo Rizhu’s story was different fro to him, the Seventh Prince of the Central Plain had never even dated her He was a Prince who had been held hostage for years in Norland Aware of his status there, he always kept a low profile and never made any trouble It was impossible for hi Rizhu had investigated their relationshi+p It turned out that his future daughter-in-laas a virgin, and had never even met the Seventh Prince

So, he had to ad
