"Silk and Aegean belong to the same plane, Qingqing, your perspective is a bit narrow, and somewhat continent chauvinistic." Yitiao said a word he had just learned, chuckled, "Actually, you haven’t seen our past battle examples, Diwei. Our combat style has always been ; showing mercy on the battlefield is a path to self-destruction, not cold-blooded, just habitual!"
"But this doesn’t mean I’m a silk traitor, does it? I haven’t brought outsiders to invade the Silk Continent! Besides, you’ve seen it, even Prince Tangzang has good relations with the boss." Yitiao pondered and gave a bitter smile, "Indeed, I’m quite afraid of your recent thoughts... or rather, I fear every person from Silk would think about me ."
"Quickly clean up the battlefield, take everything that’s portable! Send a batch of Gray Dwarves over, have them check if there are structures resembling secret rooms or tunnels here!" Rovi backed away and came over, looked strangely at Bai Suqing, patted the somewhat lost Yitiao, "Are you okay?"
"It’s not about what I think, but what you’ve actually done." Bai Suqing saw Rovi walk away, lowered her voice, "Aurora, you brought an army from another continent to annihilate our Silk’s Divine Beast sect. Isn’t this betrayal? Without you, how could your boss have found the location of Flower Court?"
"Flower Court and Ninth Prince have always been enemies, isn’t it fair for us to seek revenge?" Yitiao impatiently interrupted his beloved’s words.
Seeing his attitude was a bit harsh, Yitiao gently tucked a loose strand of Bai Suqing’s cloud-like silky hair behind her ear, held his beloved’s small hand, smiled apologetically, "Qingqing, can you not bring everything back to ethnicity and region, okay? I can swear, I’m definitely not a silk traitor! I’ve never thought of selling my homeland for anything!"
"Coming to Flower Court for unreasonably sought revenge to start a massacre, is that your justification? Isn’t it that Flower Court has Jade Emperor, has ’God of Wealth Jade Chalice,’ that’s the real reason you’re here! You’re here at Flower Court to steal this artifact!" Bai Suqing angrily pulled her small hand from Yitiao’s palm, her eyes looked pitiful and shocked at her lover, her tone quivering, "To justify your robbery, you forcefully find excuses for yourselves!"
"Your deduction is truly amusing!" Yitiao felt an invisible barrier forming like a mountain quietly between two minds once closely aligned.
"I don’t think so..."
"Even if what you said is right!" Yitiao disdainfully laughed, "Then let me ask you, if other Divine Beast Associations of the Silk Continent come here to seize ’God of Wealth Jade Chalice,’ wouldn’t you be equally angry?"
"The nature is different between you robbing and others coming to rob!"
"You call this double standards! Justice should maintain a single standard!" Yitiao sneered, "The Jade Emperor of Flower Court uses beauty as bait, recruiting talents everywhere. Does he ever consider what the women used as chips think in their hearts? Is this justice? Of course not! Why does no one question Jade Emperor? Because the strength of Flower Court is prominent!"
"Everything you just said is indeed a bunch of fallacies!" Bai Suqing was trembling all over, shaking her head, her gaze obsessed staring at Yitiao, "I can see it clearly, even if Flower Court has no leverage over you, even without Ninth Prince, you wouldn’t spare this Divine Beast Association possessing ’God of Wealth Jade Chalice!’ You’re finding excuses for yourself to avoid feeling guilty!"
"I’m truly terrified... of the boss you’re following now... I often see a sinister gleam flash in his eyes, that hidden bloodthirsty and ferocity in his gaze really scares me..." Bai Suqing gently leaned against Yitiao’s chest, lifted her tearful eyes in pleading, "Aurora, I’m very afraid you’ll become like that..."
"The worlds we live in have become completely different." Yitiao felt a mix of emotions, completely unsure how to express more, or rather, he has many feelings and understandings but couldn’t summarize them into words to persuade his beloved to see eye-to-eye.
"Perhaps you’re right, but I still maintain my current viewpoint." Yitiao went silent for a moment, "The boss once said, every accumulation of primitive capital is bloody! In this, we’re no exception! But from the establishment to prosperity of Florence, I witnessed it all the way, I do not deny the boss sometimes acts with utilitarianism, his mind is always direct and straightforward, doesn’t like to beat around the bush, whatever he likes he must obtain! But the boss has principles; only if you have leverage against him will he act on you! At least I’ve never seen him harm any honorable person! This you can say is acting on behalf of heaven, or that there are simply no clean people in this world!"
"Why should I not move against you when you do bad things? Why? Just because of continental differences? Haven’t you noticed what boss looks like? He also has black eyes, black hair, I’ve always suspected he is from our Silk Continent!" Yitiao held Bai Suqing tightly, his breath heavy, his tone turned excited, "As for justice and evil, they’re nonsense! There’s no such thing as justice and evil in this world! There’s only stance! You have yours, I have mine, aren’t we all thinking for ourselves from personal angles?" Follow current novᴇls on novel·fire.net
