Chapter 593: I Did It!

”Only Ling-Bao Hall could get away without being noticed after the bloodshed, and then go to other places to process the reward warrant… Suspicion was cleared. That was flawless.”

Ye Xiao coldly smiled. ”Can I understand it this way. Your majesty, you are trying to put such conviction on us just because of what you just said?”

The king said, ”Monarch, you misunderstood. I am not here to condemn anybody today. My son had committed such unforgivable crimes. He deserved to die! How could I mention anything about reproach. That would be shameless. Ling-Bao Hall sent assassins to do a great thing both for the kingdom and the people. What should be reproached there?”

Ye Xiao retorted, ”I guess you are still trying to push this conviction on Ling-Bao Hall! There are so many people in the world who could do that. Why are you so sure it was us? Isn’t it a bit reckless?”

”There may be many powerful assassin organizations in the world, but none of them could be so righteous, except for Feng Monarch, who has strong sense of justice and hates evil that much!”

The king solemnly spoke.

Ye Xiao was surprised.

[Strong sense of justice?]

[Me?]

”I never have any sense of justice.” Ye Xiao said, ”I never want to be a heroic man. I will do whatever it takes to achieve what I want, no matter how dirty it needs to be. I will kill whoever I want to kill! That has nothing to do with any sense of justice!”

He blandly smiled and said, ”Your majesty, you just can’t let go of this case. You want to know the truth so much. Since you have to believe Ling-Bao Hall did it, let me admit it then. Fine. I killed Second Prince’s entire family!”

When he said it, this situation reminded him the first time when he met the king in Prince Hua-Yang’s Palace.

The king was so aboveboard, great-hearted and generous.

He trusted Ye Nantian with all his heart!

Ye Xiao decided to tell him the truth. Surely, he acted like he was pestered beyond endurance and committed something he hadn’t done.

He didn’t really fear about committing the crime though, even as Feng Zhiling or Ye Xiao. [Even if it really turns into a fight, so what? The worst situation would be I get away from this place.]

[Who in this world could really tackle me?]

In fact, if Ling-Bao Hall turned against the Kingdom of Chen, that would only be a great trouble for the Kingdom of Chen!

The king stared at Feng Monarch with sharp eyes. He felt a prick in his heart.

The murderer who killed his son was right there, admitting it, but what could he do with it?

Could he avenge his son?

How could he be so shameless though?

He couldn’t avenge his son and he even had to reward the man who killed his son!

The king sighed and closed his eyes in sadness. He murmured, ”If I… If I am not a king, I will kill you no matter what it takes to avenge my son. I may not be able to kill you, but I will try.”
