Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

In regards to Si Bai's action, no one could find faults.

Even the people from Dark Moon Organization sighed when they look at Si Bai and felt that he was similar to his father.

Both were love brain.

When it was something related to their partner in life, they would be unable to think properly. It was to the point that Si Mo Fan was unable to handle the Dark Moon Organization's operation because he was so worried about his wife back then.

Si Bai would most likely be the same considering that he had inherited his father's special gene.

*sigh*

Heavenly General Lu looked at Si Bai in front of him. If not for the showdown from Si Bai himself, it was estimated that no one would be able to find out that this youth in front of him was actually the real young master of Dark Moon Organization.

The young leader of that powerful organization.

He himself only find Si Bai familiar but only when the two of them talked today did he realize Si Bai's real identity.

"Should Zhang Xu Kingdom fall, who would be able to say for sure that I can retain my position. My family will not be in good situation." Heavenly General Lu leaned back on the wall behind him.

The call for reinforcement had arrived for some time.

But if Heavenly General Lu had to say, he didn't approve Emperor Zhang Hou Tian becoming the Emperor. While Emperor Zhang Hou Tian had showed excellence in several fields, it was also the truth that he was a ruthless person who could be swayed by other people's words.

Being in power after being pushed by several people, Heavenly General Lu didn't show his stance and only watched that young emperor from the distance.

In the end, he simply sighed and said nothing.

Emperor Zhang Hou Tian would be a good Emperor if the situation in the court was more united and loyal to Zhang Xu Kingdom. In the current condition, it was simply impossible for that to happen.

So, in the end, Emperor Zhang Hou Tian listened to the wrong person.

This resulted in the current situation.

"Do you care more of your power or your family's situation, Heavenly General Lu?" Si Bai was still calm. After having to face his father and Nan Hua in the past, he had learned how to be calm when facing these powerful people.

Even if it was true that he wanted to run away when he saw these two when they had some intention, he also learned how to bear with the pressure.

Heavenly General Lu?

Is he scarier than his father and Nan Hua?

Those two could deal with him to the point that he would not want to live anymore, thus Si Bai could show his calm appearance in this discussion.

"The power is given by the Emperor and could be taken away by the Emperor again." Si Bai looked at Heavenly General Lu. "But if the roots were to be extinguished, there will be no chance for survival in the end."

If Heavenly General Lu chose to side with Zhang Xu Kingdom even after listening to all of these, it meant that his family would also be targeted. Emperor Yang Zhou was not the type of person who would leave any loose ends.

Since he wanted to end Zhang Xu Kingdom and those loyal to them, it meant that the family members of these people will also be implicated.

Heavenly General Lu looked at Si Bai deeply and in the end sighed. Who would have thought that his own family would be targeted like this? Even after being so careful for many years, they still end up bringing a wolf to their territory.

But should he be grateful that Si Bai was married into his family and not his granddaughter married into Si Bai's family?

Heavenly General Lu looked at the letter of reinforcement that arrived from Zhang Xu Kingdom's Capital City and threw it to the fireplace.

Ssh!

The fire burned the bamboo scrolls easily.

Even though Heavenly General Lu didn't say it, his action had showed that he was willing to surrender to Fei Yang Kingdom.

This meant that he would no longer support anyone from Zhang Xu Kingdom.

As for his military power?

Perhaps, it was time for him to retire.

He was already old and several of his grandchildren were already married and have their own children too. It wouldn't be long before he was dragged out of his position and perhaps enjoy his retirement.

His children might not be able to have position as high as they used to be.

But at the very least, they should be able to stay alive.

"Thank you for your time today, Grandfather in law." Si Bai stood up and cupped his fist respectfully.

Heavenly General Lu looked at the young man in front of him deeply. He watched as Si Bai walked to the door and suddenly asked, "What's Dark Moon Organization real relationship with Fei Yang Kingdom."

Si Bai paused on his steps but he didn't answer and continued his steps.

No matter what, he couldn't sell Nan Hua out. She has been 'self-proclaiming' as the princess of Dark Moon Organization and they hadn't responded anything to that statement.

Since she was unwilling to tell more, he would not be the one to betray her.

Heavenly General Lu watched the youth's back and sighed deeply. He was already old and feel very tired.

Perhaps, it was indeed time for him to plan for his reinforcement while fighting against Fan Yi Kingdom's soldiers who were still lingering around.

…

Walking out of Heavenly General Lu's Residence, Si Bai walked leisurely in his temporary residence's location. From a distance away, he could see a young woman standing with several maidservants waiting for her.

His heart skipped a beat.

"Lin'er, what are you doing out here? It's Spring and the north is still relatively cold in temperature," Si Bai reprimanded.
