Chapter 167: I Will Definitely Walk Till The End
When Qi Baijun shouted loudly, the souls of the two soldiers almost flew out. One of the soldiers plucked up his courage and said in a trembling voice: "An... Answering Zheng Yi Wang, This... This subordinate didn’t know."
Qi Baijun sneered when he heard his answer. He drew his sword and slashed at the soldier. The soldier’s eyes widened in disbelief as he touched his neck. The soldier only felt the warm blood flow out from his neck, before his body fell to the ground with a thud.
The other soldier saw that his comrade died under Qi Baijun’s sword, and quickly kowtowed.
"Ple... Please spare the life of this subordinate, Zheng Yi Wang. Th... This subordinate really didn’t see the thief. When this subordinate op... opened my eyes again, the lock was already broken." He said, trembling with obvious fear in his voice.
Qi Baijun looked at the soldier coldly, sneered, and said, "You can’t even guard a door, so there is no need to keep you."
Before the soldiers hadn’t had time to understand what he meant, Qi Baijun had already chopped off his head from his neck with one quick slash.
Thud! Thud!
The severed head fell to the ground together with the headless body, and the ground was stained red with blood. Qi Baijun flicked off the blood from his sword, and put the sword back into its sheath. After that, he turned around and walked out from there.
"I want to know who dares to steal my things within two hours. If it can’t be done, bring your head back to report to this prince." He said coldly.
The general in charge of city security trembled when he heard Qi Baijun’s words. He clasped his fists, bowed his head and said, "This subordinate follows orders."
Qi Baijun gave him a cold glance for a second, then left angrily. After he left, the general wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and said, "Clean up the mess and call everyone. We must find out the identity of the one who stole the map within two hours. Otherwise, the same day next year will be our death anniversary."
All the soldiers trembled, clasped their fists together and said, "Yes, General."
When the soldiers in Lin Zi City frantically searched for clues about the thief, Xiao Shao woke up after sleeping for two hours. When he woke up, the sun had already risen from the eastern horizon. Rubbing his sore neck and looking around, he found that Xiao Jing had already woken up and prepared breakfast with Fan Zhengyue and Fan Zhengxue.
Xiao Jing heard his movements and turned to look at her elder brother, and said, "Good morning, Elder Brother. Breakfast is almost ready."
"Mhm." He nodded and stood up to find his father.
Fan Zhengyue looked at his straight back for a moment, and said, "Xiao Da Lang looks very tired. I feel very sad, but I can’t do anything to help him. I’m really useless."
Xiao Jing heard Fan Zhengyue’s words, glanced at her, and said nothing. After staying together for more than a week, she already knew that this second miss of the Fan family was not as innocent and weak as she seemed.
Seeing that Xiao Jing didn’t respond, Fan Zhengyue glanced at Xiao Jing and saw her cold but very beautiful face. Lowering her eyes, she concealed her jealousy and hatred towards Xiao Jing. Every time she sees Xiao Jing’s beautiful face and gentle temperament, she will remember the time when she was bullied by those bandits.
She bit her lip, and thought: ’If I want to get close to Xiao Shao, I have to find a way to please this bitch. But if she still doesn’t know what is good for her, then I need to figure out a way to get rid of her once and for all.’
When Fan Zhengyue was busy thinking by herself, Xiao Jing, who was stirring the pot of millet porridge across from her, observed her expressions carefully. Seeing Fan Zhengyue’s twisted expression on her face, Xiao Jing shook her head slightly.
She took a wooden bowl, filled it with millet porridge, and thought: ’Indeed, I should tell my elder brother and parents about Fan Zhengyue. If only we could go our separate way, it would be for the best. But if we can’t, then all I can do is keep an eye on her to prevent her from causing any problems.’
While Xiao Jing was thinking about how to tell her parents and elder brother about Fan Zhengyue, Xiao Shao, Xiao Han, and Xiao Yi were busy discussing what to do next.
Sitting on the sleigh, Xiao Yi looked at his eldest son and asked, "Have you finally made up your mind?"
Xiao Shao nodded and said, "Yes, Father."
Hearing Xiao Shao’s firm answer, Xiao Yi sighed. Seeing his father’s sad face, Xiao Han lowered his eyes and thought in silence.
After a moment of silence, he raised his eyes and said, "Father, I agree with my elder brother. After being exiled, I finally saw with my own eyes the suffering of common people caused by the endless wars, natural and man-made disasters, and the result of Emperor Ming’s tyranny. With Emperor Ming’s temperament, if we don’t fight back, we won’t be able to survive. Even if you don’t want to do it for our family, you should do it for the common people, Father."
Xiao Yi fell silent after listening to his youngest son’s persuasion. After a long silence, he said, "All right. Let’s follow Da Lang’s decision. But I want to remind you that the path you choose will not be smooth sailing."
With their father’s approval, both Xiao Shao and Xiao Han breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Shao looked at his father and calmly said, "I know, Father. I have thought about this matter for a long time before making this decision. Since I have chosen this path, I will definitely walk till the end."
