709 What A Way To Uphold Justice! (2/2)
”I am an outsider in the argument between the Han Family and the Xiao Family, and O should not interfere. However, after observing this whole time, I do understand a little of the situation. Not sure if Han Zhan Meng and Xiao Xing Yun would be willing to listen my opinion regarding the justice in this matter?” Wei Kong Qun spoke slowly.
”Venerable Wei, do speak; we will definitely listen and obey your words.” Xiao Xing Yun bowed respectfully and stayed in that position.
Han Zhan Meng pondered for a moment and said, ””Venerable Wei, do feel to speak if you have any suggestions regarding the current situation. I happen to seek your view on what to do.”
While Han Zhan Meng made it sound pretty, everyone could tell that he had left room for discussion. Anyone could tell the difference between heeding advice obediently and seeking suggestions.
Wei Kong Qun spoke with a smile. ”For hundreds of years, the two families have been friends, and when facing the imminent threat, wasting time in a commotions over such trivial marriage matters would only bring loss! The influence and power of Blizzard Silver City is not achieved by merely the powers of either the Han Family nor Xiao Family alone. If I put it this way, do any of you have any issues?”
Xiao Xing Yun replied respectfully, ”Venerable Wei speaks with such enlightenment, I am ashamed.”
Han Zhan Meng felt that something was off. What intentions do you have, speaking like this? What does the threat have to do with the Han Family? What imminent threat to the city? When the Jun Family attacks, their target would only be the Xiao Family.
What do you mean by ”wasting time in a commotion over such trivial marriage matters” when there was such a huge discrepancy? However, with Venerable Wei Kong Qun's status, Han Zhan Meng wouldn't dare accidentally offend him. Hence he replied unwillingly, ”Venerable Wei Kong Qun is correct.”
”I'll continue to speak if that's the case,” Wei Kong Qun said. ”Since the building of Blizzard Silver City, Han Family and Xiao Family have contributed and sacrificed greatly; or you can say, Blizzard Silver City belongs to Xiao Family and Han Family, and there is no difference! Am I right to say this?”
Xiao Xing Yun nodded aggressively in agreement.
The more Han Zhan Meng listened, the more odd it sounded. He frowned. What ”Blizzard Silver City belongs to Xiao Family and Han Family”? Blizzard Silver City had always belonged to Han Family! This way of speaking was completely diluting and mixing the truth!
”Since the two families are one, then it makes no difference if the Han Family or Xiao Family is the master. If this is the case, since it is the cause of this disagreement, isn't it easy to resolve! Since the Han Family has been masters for hundreds of years, why not give it temporarily to the Xiao Family? After all, it does not matter which family it is! It is still Blizzard Silver City! For the sake of the greater good, I'd advise Master Han to give in temporarily.”
”You mean… to ask me to hand the Lord's position to the Xiao Family?” Han Zhan Meng questioned in shock! To think that the fair and just Three Holy Lands would utter such bullshit!
Who are you even?
A matter as big as changing dynasties would be as simple as a single sentence?
What's happening?
Your one sentence and everyone in Blizzard Silver City will adopt 'Xiao' as their surname?
For generations, the countries and territories of Emperors were claimed by their generals. By your logic, a mere discussion can put a general in a position of supreme power? Complete bullshit!
Incredibly brainless! And someone like this is a commander of three Holy Lands?
”That's right, I made this suggestion out of goodwill. Both your families have been torn apart by who sits in the position of the Lord. To ignore the teachings of your ancestors and cut off the hundreds of years of friendship and brotherhood for this?”
Wei Kong Qun sighed, ”By letting the Xiao Family take the Lord's position today is a great way to prove the mutual respect your families have for each other! For the sake of this deep bond and brotherly ties of hundreds of years! Wealth and riches are superficial; what harm is there in letting it go? Furthermore, this will be a great affair that will be spoken about greatly by the people of this world!”
”Brother Wei speaks sensibly. When the Han Family moved into Blizzard Silver City, the vow became the ancestral teachings for the generations without change over the past hundred years! This vow was the model example for the rest of the world!” Mo Xiao Yao exclaimed. ”Today, the Xiao Family has become the Lord of the City, naturally also having to make an oath to protect the interests of the Han Family forever!”
Working in sync, with just these few sentences, they forcefully changed the Lord of the City!
”That's right! Before the experts of the Three Holy Lands, I, Xiao Xing Yun swear that from today on, the Xiao Family will never abandon the Han Family! As long as the Silver City still stands, the lineage of the Han Family will never break! Through generations, we will be brothers, and this oath is unbreakable regardless of life or death!
Xiao Xing Yun's excited and joyous expression could not be hidden any longer. He had great control, but seeing that his lifelong goal was about to be achieved, he could no longer hold it in. He had also wanted to make an oath, but he was too overwhelmed to think of any fancy way to say it, so he just blurted out the ancestral oath of the Han Family after changing one word.
”Furthermore, we have had countless commotions over the trivial matters of our children in recent years, which was truly inappropriate! I'm ashamed to my ancestors to the care of the previous generations of Han Family… I sincerely ask for forgiveness and assure that such problems will never happen again!”
