You were lucky to escape away earlier today?” Jun Wu Yi unhurriedly repeated this sentence in a stern voice while his eyebrows continued to rise with every word: “Second son of Guan, do you mean to imply that you played a part in the assassination attempt on Mo Xie’s life earlier this evening?!” Jun Wu Yi’s sharp eyes suddenly started exhibiting a surging murderous aura.
Jun Wu Yi had only been looking at this dispute as nominal falling out between two youngsters, and it wasn’t even remotely enough for him to spoil his mood over, but this one sentence of Guan Qing Yue’s had revealed something entirely different and was enough to flare his anger! This was the first time today that he was actually considering taking action against the youngster!
How could a young and inexperienced man like Guan Qing Yue resist the power and might of an iron-blooded war General?
“I did not!” Guan Qing Yue suddenly felt frost bites on his entire body, and cried out in dismay: “The assassination? What assassination? I was just mentioning it in reference! Why would I have wanted to kill him at a time when I didn’t even know about all this? And if I did wish him dead, then why would I tell them anything? If this young master wanted him dead, then how could he have ever escaped alive?!”
Jun Wu Yi, Guan Dong Liu and Guan Ru Shan sighed in unison upon hearing his response.
It’s obvious that Guan Qing Yue is only a tool-for-use in Yue’er’s eyes. She must have used him earlier when they met in the east, and would have continued to use him till she left for the Tian Xiang City. And now she’s managed to use him to get the information about Jun Mo Xie’s whereabouts, and then went about planning the assassination attempt on his life!
It was obvious to them all, that he had played no part in the attempt on Jun Mo Xie’s life!
Guan Qing Bo and Guan Qing Han, being younger in age and less experienced in worldly matters, took a little longer to understand the whole story…..
Guan Dong Liu sighed again as his eyes reflected a color of despair. His second son had not only cursed Jun Mo Xie inside the Jun Family’s mansion, but had also gone ahead to threaten his life! If this wasn’t already hard enough to get away with, he had also revealed that he was the sole culprit behind the attempt on the young master Jun’s life……
It wasn’t hard for the man to imagine the consequences his son would now have to face as a result. The thought that they had only arrived in the city a mere two days ago, and his son had already painted several targets on his back, made him extremely sad about his son’s destiny!
“You idiot, you’ve been used by that cheap woman all along……” Guan Dong Liu’s voice seemed very weak: “Qing Yue, I never expected that someone as quick-witted as you would fall straight into such a lousy trap! Do you even realize that we are in the Tian Xiang City right now?” It didn’t sound like he was scolding his son this time around.
“Of course I know!” Guan Qing Yue’s face twitched in pain: “She used me when we met in the east…. more than once, but every time…. I knew! But you don’t know how good I felt each time she used me! I was willing to let her use me! It made me happy!”
“It makes me really happy!” Guan Qing Yue was almost roaring out at this point while his usually handsome face was strangely curved into a twisted grim: “As long as she can use me, I’m someone valuable in her eyes! If I’m of no use to her, then what is my value? Aren’t I just another guy from a powerful family?!”
“I allowed her to use me!” The youngster’s stubborn voice boomed through the hall, and then the hall immediately went silent.
Two thin lines of tears streamed down from Guan Qing Yue’s eyes.
Jun Mo Xie sighed. Whether in this life or the previous, Jun Mo Xie had always been very ruthless by nature. As an assassin by profession, it had been vital for him to give up certain things in life, including love since he couldn’t afford to be tied down to anything. Love would make him vulnerable. This was an important aspect for him since he intended on climbing the peak of the world!
Therefore, Jun Mo Xie had never known the meaning of love!
It’s not that he couldn’t, he just didn’t! This was one feeling that the hitman Jun had never attempted to experience; ….affection!
An emotional attachment has always been the hardest aspect to break away from; this has always been proved over and over again in the past!
How many peerless experts and heroes were thrown into a situation and ended up becoming soft since they experienced an attachment with someone?
Emotional attachment must be a very hard thing to break away from since such people were either sunk by it, or acted logically and lived the rest of their lives… burdened with regret!
Everyone present could clearly feel the depth of his affection, his pain, the desperation and despair of his heart, the power of his sadness, and the haze of his future!
These feelings were
