Chapter 650: A good or bad father

Suddenly no one on the shore knew what to do next, the woman who had just fired a missile was standing still and smiling. And it was no soft smile, it was a half smile that partly appeared to be a sneer. She meant business, anybody could tell.

"Are you sure you want to interfere with our mission?" the man on his knees asked Muyang.

Bang! a sound was made, which was the clear sound of a gun being fired and one of the masked men fell to the ground, holding his leg.

"He twitched." Chi Lian said and she shrugged.

The other soldiers who were confused aimed their weapons at Chi Lian. "Colonel, we have a situation." one of them said into his wireless microphone. "Get to to the shores quickly."

More soldiers were escaping from the compound now because the explosion had created confusion. Along with the soldiers came Muyang’s brothers who were stunned by the sight of Chi Lian carrying a missile projector on her shoulder and a gun which was pointing at any of the soldiers. From the angle where they stood, they could not be sure who the barrel of her weapon was aimed at.

And then, there was their brother whose gun was on the head of another soldier.

Even though these soldiers wore the uniform of their army, their faces were covered.

"Don’t tell me_" Ringo said, worried and unsure.

"It can’t be." one of the triplets said.

"We came here to stop individuals who were plotting to control and overthrow the royal family. Why is it impossible?" another said.

"But how sure can we be that it’s them? Anyone can slap on a black mask and claim to be one of them. Maybe that’s why our brother and sister-in-law are pointing weapons at them."

"Or they are here to do what they do best to all enemies of the throne," the eldest said, and he made a throat slitting sign.

Ringo got his two guns and he said, "Whatever it is, we stand with our family, other things can we be considered later."

"I am with you brother." the eldest of the triplets said as well.

All of the brothers armed themselves, and the youngest one even got a grenade from the pockets of the bag which she Chi Lian had told him to carry around at the beginning of the mission. As he got the grenade, he wondered why nobody was mentioning the weapon their sister-in-law was carrying and had possibly fired.

They found positions close to Muyang and Chi-Chi, and they pointed their own weapons at the soldiers. There was a stand off now, between the soldiers and their side.

"We have the advantage in numbers," one of the masked soldiers said.

"And we have more advanced weapons." Chi Lian said.

"If you know what we are then_"

Chi Lian laughed and cut him off. "I don’t care if you are human, deity, alien, animal or idol. All I know is that before you get a chance to execute these pitiful women my bullets will be lodged in half of your foreheads. And I don’t miss." she added.

One of the soldiers, a young man with with a black beret on his head with a wolf logo stepped in front of Chi Lian and he looked at her.

She gave him one look before glancing away, and returning her gaze to Muyang.

"I am colonel Qui Shoi-Ming, the leader of this mission. I know who you are, miss and I know them as well, Ju..."

"Let’s not use our names, we haven’t separated all the victims from the assailants in this crowd yet." Muyang interfered before the captain could continue further.

"As you wish. But I would like to request all of you to lay down your weapons so that we can get to the root of the problem. I know how valuable you have been on this mission which is why I am speaking to you so respectfully. Please, accord me the same respect and trust me. " the colonel said.

Muyang looked at Chi Lian and she winked.

He backed away and raised his hands as if to indicate that he had surrendered. "If they move however, there is no guarantee that we will stay still colonel. Are you aware of what their plans are?"

The colonel looked at the masked secret royal guard and then the others who were mixed in with his soldiers. They were not his men and they had not been part of the mission. They showed up with the helicopters and mixed in with the normal soldiers. He would not have allowed them to join in if they had not come with a special document that had the royal seal. Additionally, he had been contacted by a superior officer who ordered him to stay away from their affairs. He did not know what their mission was, but he knew how much this couple had sacrificed for this mission so he was standing on their side for now.

"No, they did not share their intentions with me? May I ask what it is that you think they are here to do?"

"To kill, slaughter, massacre, waste, and take the life of innocent women that were kidnapped, tortured and forced to have children with bastard men whose faulty mentality has destroyed many lives." Chi Lian answered him. "Is the father of the nation a good father if he kills his own children?"

"Sister-in-law!!" Ringo gasped.

She continued on to say, "We are here to liberate them with his knowledge and show them that the emperor is a kind man who cares for all his people and he has been searching for them so that they can be returned home. In my thinking, these soldiers have misinterpreted the emperor’s words. It is the bad guys who are to face justice, the innocents are to be rescued, relocated and rehabilitated."

In her mind, T4 chuckled and said, "The three R’s."

"You must be right, miss, the emperor sent these men to rescue the victims. Why else would they be here?" one of the soldiers who found the actions of the masked soldiers unfair said.

"Go on, tell these women why you are here." Muyang told the leader of the masked men.

"Everyone, wouldn’t you like to hear what the father of the empire has in mind for you? Please urge the soldiers to be clear so that your hearts can be contented." Chi Lian said loudly and she looked at the women.

In her mind, Chi Lian thought, I dare you to look them in the eyes and tell them that the emperor they love and trust so much sent you to bury them along with the island.

And the emperor, was he stupid or were his advisors stupid? You want to quell a rebellion by getting rid of everyone that is involved whether they are guilty or not, what happens if the news gets out?

Or what happens if one of them survives and grows to hate the empire so much that they start their own mission to overthrow the Long dynasty? Then the cycle would continue, over and over.

T4 had an opinion in relation to her thoughts and he shared it. "You can’t blame your emperor, the survivors of the 1960 Qilin beast uprising have a hand in this? Think about it logically host, and not emotionally. How many of these women or children can you guarantee have not been radicalized after spending so many years here?"
