The phrase that the area under the lamp is often the darkest, was undoubtedly true! It was also something that could end up implicating the entire Guan Family!
“Is that so? Then, I’ll have to congratulate Lord Evil Monarch. Because, you’ve finally found me! There’s no need to dwell on this problem anymore.” Yue’er’s lithe body shook slightly, but she still continued stubbornly. “Back then, Jun Zhantian killed my entire family, only leaving me in this world. Today, as the grandson of Jun Zhantian, if you kill me, it’ll be considered as thoroughly removing the root of the gra.s.s, eliminating all future troubles.”
“NO!” Guan Qingyue shouted and turned towards Jun Moxie with a pleading expression. “Third Young Master Jun… please, please let her off! Let Yue’er off! I beg of you! She is the person that I love the most in this world! If there’s no Yue’er, I… I won’t be able to live on!”
His body trembled heavily, and his lips shook. His eyes were already devoid of hope. Because he could clearly see the intense killing intent brewing in Jun Moxie’s eyes. “Third Young Master Jun, you and my elder sister are already a couple now, could it be that you are willing to still tear away the happiness of your own little uncle? I beg you…!”
Jun Moxie’s body s.h.i.+vered slightly. One had to admit, those straw grasping words that Guan Qingyue said had truly achieved the right effect.
The reason why Jun Moxie could not endure Yue’er was because this girl had always held nefarious intentions towards the Jun Family. Especially now, even though they were all fighting for the continent, her hatred towards the Jun Family had still not subsided even a bit!
“Yue’er, who is your father? And who is your grandfather? Why do you have so much hatred for the Jun Family? I believe that my grandfather is not a savage who kills the innocent! If you can give me a good explanation today, I might give you justice!” Jun Moxie sighed lightly and said.
“Could I possibly malign your grandfather? My grandfather is called Chu Tie Chen, the great general of Yan Country! When Tian Xiang fought to establish their lands, Jun Zhantian defeated my grandfather in battle, and he was ultimately killed under Jun Zhantian’s blade!” Yue’er’s eyes filled up with tears as she glared at Jun Moxie. “Back then when our Great Yan was destroyed, my father Chu Chang Feng stayed to defend our ancestral home. In the end, he also died in the hands of Jun Wuhui!
“Grandfather and father’s deaths left the Chu Family without anyone to rely on, and our family was torn apart. In a single night, the Chu Family was devoured by the Tang Family, and everyone was either scattered or dead. I escaped and made my way through an arduous road to reach Tian Xiang, only for revenge! Everything that happened to the Chu Family was because of your Jun Family! Your entire family is the murderer of my household!”
Jun Moxie snorted coldly and rolled his eyes: “And here I thought that my grandfather had done something evil! So this supposed grudge is simply because your father and grandfather had been killed on the battlefield? Because of that, you’ve attributed all the misfortune that your family had met with to my Jun Family?! Miss, is that what you were trying to say? So by Young Miss’s logic, if my grandfather had not won on the battlefield that year, we would instead become the great benefactors of your family? If my grandfather lost, and my Jun Family was the one being destroyed, would that be the correct outcome?!”
Yue’er was completely unable to reply. She was very young when her family fell apart, and she’d suffered all her childhood. She’d already concluded since then, that all her misfortune was because of the Jun Family. She only felt that if the Jun Family hadn’t existed, her family would still be whole and happy. But she’d never once thought to think about the other side of the coin. Now when she was questioned like this, she was suddenly stumped, and couldn’t reply!
Jun Moxie continued pressing. “Haha… Young Miss’s ability to reason is really breathtaking. By Young Miss’s logic, wouldn’t my Jun Family’s enemies be so plentiful that the entire world would be filled with them? Our family’s three generations are all soldiers and generals; the number of people who’ve died under their blades can be numbered in the millions! If the families of everyone of those soldiers wanted to seek revenge… How many heads does our little Jun Family have to give to everyone who comes? What a joke! En, after today, you can include a Jun Moxie into your list of savage and abhorable Jun Family members. After all, this Seat had killed a huge number of Outsiders people! I’m sure they would wish to seek revenge as well. Because I’m the biggest enemy that blocked their path into the Xuan Xuan Continent!”
Jun Moxie had also not thought before, that Yue’er’s deep seated hatred, was actually such a matter. To Yue’er, this was an incredibly difficult thing to bear. But to Jun Moxie, it was an extremely laughable matter.
It was truly too laughable!
The duty of a soldier had always been to fight for their country. Dying on the battlefield should be the greatest honor for any soldier. But if the family members of every soldier who died on the battlefield went to look for the enemy general for revenge, the world would really go chaotic…
Among soldiers on the battlefield, there were never anything like grudges!
They only had different positions!
Nothing more!
Guan Qingyue held tightly onto Yue’er’s wrist and explained anxiously. “Jun Moxie… Brother-in-law…. In this period of time, I’d always been advising her, and in truth, Yue’er’s hatred had already been mostly put down already. Brother-in-law, you must believe me, as long as Yue’er is with me, she will never do anything to harm the Jun Family!”
Guan Qingyue was so anxious that he even directly called out the words brother-in-law!
Yue’er appeared somewhat unwilling that her wrist was being grabbed, and her face was still filled with grief and rage. However, she no longer continued to struggle. Truthfully, how could she not understand the same logic? It was only because of the deep hatred that she’d always held in her heart, causing her to be unwilling to confront the thought. After being scolded so thoroughly by Jun Moxie now, everything had become clearer to her.
“You guarantee? Are you able to guarantee anything?! What if I insist on plucking out the weeds completely and kill?” Jun Moxie’s face turned cold as he asked. But even when he said that, there was no more killing intent in his heart. On the surface, Yue’er’s hatred was so huge that they could not live under the same sky. But in truth, she was just a girl with some mental trauma.
After the Chu Family fell apart, it was this thought of revenge that allowed her to live on until now.
If even this motivation collapsed, she might also crumble apart herself.
The main reason that Jun Moxie was unwilling to kill was not because Young Master Jun was his little uncle’s beloved woman. The t.i.tle of being his little uncle… certainly did have a certain amount of face attached to it. But this also depended on whether Young Master Jun was willing to give him that face, and how much of it…
Right now, the most important reason was that… Yue’er was simply too weak. She was much too weak!
Her cultivation was only barely at the rudimentary level of Golden Xuan. With such a cultivation, even if the weakest person from the Jun Family stood out and let her hack at them wildly with a knife without retaliating, she would die of exhaustion before she could hurt anyone.
Schemes could indeed be useful in dealing with experts, but there was still a limit to them. Against experts whose strengths far surpa.s.sed the ma.s.ses… any kind of plot or schemes would just be a joke.
Jun Moxie had always been a very realistic person. With the current power that the Jun Family possessed, an existence like Yue’er was something that couldn’t even compare to an ant. There was completely no need to pay her any mind.
“If you must kill, I, Guan Qingyue, am willing to die in her place!” Guan Qingyue’s eyes turned red as he gritted his teeth and said. “If I cannot die in her place, then please allow me to die together with her! Hand in hand, we will tread the Yellow Springs together!”
By the time he finished speaking, his lips had already been bitten until it bled! But without bothering to wipe them away, he looked at Jun Moxie, and knelt down!
“Qing Yue!” Yue’er cried out and looked at him with her heart shattering apart. In that moment, she was actually unable to say anything.
This was the man who’d been chasing after her from the start, never wavering in the slightest. Even though she’d never reciprocated anything, he did not change his conviction. He would stupidly do things that even she despised, as he tried his best to please her.
At first, for the sake of taking revenge against the Jun Family, she intentionally gotten close to him, to use him. Yet he’d never once suspected her. When she got the information she needed and left without a word, he did not blame her at all. Later on, when he saw her again, he still behaved as pa.s.sionately as before towards her.
Finally, when her plot was discovered by Jun Moxie, and she was forced to flee from Tian Xiang City, she found that with the influence of the Jun Family, there was actually no place for her to hide even in this vast world. Just at this time, Guan Qingyue once again appeared in front of her. He would rather fall out with his family to protect her. In this period of time, in order to protect her, he was beaten up badly by his father several times. However, he still refused to budge even a step.
Today, because of her, against her greatest enemy—a peerless expert whom they had no hope of resisting—he put down his pride as a man to beg for mercy. He was even willing to give up on his life to exchange for her to be able to keep on living. If she must die, he was willing to die along with her!
Such a pure and true love… how many men in the world would be able to go so far for a woman he loved?
She’d already received so much… Why would there be anything that she wasn’t unsatisfied with?
Why had she never noticed his true love! Could it be that her heart was really blinded?
In this moment, Yue’er’s heart that had been tightly sealed for all these years was deeply moved by this idiotic fellow.
Sighing heavily, Guan Dongliu shook his head. “Jun… Third Young Master Jun, in truth, our Guan Family has in truth let down the Jun Family in this matter. Qing Yue was so deep in love, and this old man was also unable to do anything about it in a short moment… so we could only delay it first. This time, we’ve come to Tian Nan to help with the war, and originally, it was just to contribute our strength for the continent. If we could meet you, it would naturally be best if we could explain the matter to you in person. But if we didn’t see you, everything would also be resolved with the wind once our family died fighting here…”
On the side, Guan Qingpo looked expression. Truthfully, this First Young Master of the Guan Famil, had always looked quite disdainfully at that younger brother of his being so obsessed with a woman. A young man like his brother wouldn’t need to be scared of not being able to find a wife anyways. Was there a need to be like this…
Jun Moxie nodded his head blandly as he looked at Guan Qingyue. “Guan Qingyue, are you really willing to die with her? Fine then, since you’d already spoken, I’ll give you that face. There’s no need to travel the Yellow Springs together. If you’re willing to die for her, I’ll spare her life. In any case, as long as I can take one life today, that’ll be sufficient. Your death or hers: it’s the same!”
The moment those words came out, anyone could tell that Jun Moxie was determined to kill Yue’er.
In that moment, everyone’s faces changed as they cursed Jun Moxie in their hearts for being so unfeeling.
However, Guan Qingyue leaped up with an excited expression: “Are those words for real?”
“A man is only as good as his words. I, Jun Moxie, never speak false words!” Jun Moxie nodded lightly. Looking at this silly fellow, he’s truly irredeemably deep in love… Fine then, I’ll fulfill him!
