Brother!

An exceptionally intimate word!

What is brotherhood?

They would venture into perilous lands and carry burdens together. They would share happiness as well as problems to overcome!

Actions speak louder than words!

The sound of hooves suddenly became audible. A man on horseback was approaching. All of his hair was white and he had a big build. It was Tang Wan Li.

He hopped off the horse and approached Tang Yuan. He said angrily, “You little bastard! You are still so ignorant and don’t understand priorities! Come back home with me!”

Tang Yuan insisted. “Grandpa, please wait a while. I will return to the Aristocratic Hall once I have finished paying tribute to Uncle Jun.”

“You little brat, how dare you bargain with your grandpa!” Tang Wan Li blew his mustache and raised his hand up high as his face blackened.

“Grandpa... I can’t go back with you yet!” Although Tang Yuan was used to big occasions in recent years, he was still afraid of his grandfather. Nevertheless, he still raised his head and argued reasonably. “Grandpa, you can die for His Majesty and disregard the whole family. You can do anything at any time for him because His Majesty recognized your abilities and you fought together when you were young. This is true friendship between men, and I understand. But... I can do anything for Jun Mo Xie just like how you can for His Majesty!!

“Grandpa, you have your friendship and I also have mine, which can’t be severed.” Although Tang Yuan said it softly, he sounded very firm. “You are always loyal to the imperial family. So many years, and it never changed. I admire your moral principles, but do you wish for your grandson to always sit on the fence and be a disgraceful character for life?”

“Sigh...” Tang Wan Li looked at his grandson with great surprise. The raised hand could not come down.

After a while, he sighed and said dispiritedly, “But... you don’t know the consequences...”

“Jun Mo Xie called me his good brother just now!” There was light on Tang Yuan’s face. “I have real blood-related brothers, but I’ve never had this kind of brother! He is the first, and perhaps the only one... From a young age, no one befriended me. Let alone treat me like a brother!”

“I hope I will always have my brother,” Tang Yuan said with a low voice as he looked at his grandpa. “Just like your relationship with His Majesty.”

Tang Wan Li stood startled. Suddenly, he felt that the grandson in front of him was so unfamiliar. He always thought that his grandson, who only liked to eat and didn’t work, wasn’t going to achieve anything and become useless for life. Even though Tang Yuan had become extremely wealthy due to the Aristocratic Hall, he was just a puppet of Jun Mo Xie. But in this moment, he felt that his grandson had really grown up.

Tang Yuan finally followed his own will and could be called a real man!

But where Tang Yuan was heading was in fact a different path than his!

With a long sigh, Tang Wan Li looked gloomy. He got back onto horseback with some difficulty. He whispered, “Yuan, you have finally grown up, and you have your own choices... I hope you can do well on you own, the family...” He couldn’t continue. His expression was very complex. It was a mixture of relief and pain, and it was contradictory to the extreme. He sighed again and slowly rode away...

Tang Yuan shed tears. Looking at his grandpa’s silhouette in the wind with the white hair, he bit his lips. Sorry, grandpa. But I don’t think I am wrong!

“Brother Wan Li.” Jun Zhan Tian walked over and shouted at the leaving Tang Wan Li.

Tang Wan Li stopped his horse but did not turn back. “Jun Zhan Tian, you’ve finally avenged your son, and I’m sure you feel very relieved. But, besides the front of the palace, is there no other places that can house your platform? Besides feeling relieved, aren’t you concerned for anything else? Don’t you feel uncomfortable?”

Jun Zhan Tian stood there seriously and shook his head. “Brother Tang. You are not me. You won’t understand. I know you don’t feel comfortable, and I am not very willing to admit as well! But, reality is reality, mistakes were made. How can they compensate me? If you were me, what would you do?”

“Yes! I don’t understand! I don’t think I’ll ever understand, but I’m uncomfortable and angry!” Tang Wan Li’s voice was cold and low. “I believe that not only am I uncomfortable, but the other old brothers who survived together will also be uncomfortable. Those brothers who died in battle—if they can feel in the underworld, they will be even more uncomfortable! Because what you are humiliating is what we all fought for. Tian Xiang... It’s ours! We bought it with blood and effort! It’s made up from countless sacrifices. Jun Zhan Tian, you can ask Zhu Zhu Zhu, and Murong Fengyun whether they feel comfortable... Ask yourself if you feel comfortable!

“As for you compensation... I don’t know the plot better than you, but I also have some understanding. So I didn’t bring an army over today... But Tian Xiang belongs to all of us! We all fought for it! This is the only thing I know and the only thing I care about!”

Jun Zhan Tian sighed.

“Indeed! Tian Xiang belongs to all of you. I can’t disagree, I’m not even qualified to.” Jun Mo Xie stood up smiling. “But, did you miss some people? I am sure without them, Tian Xiang would have long disappeared. Tian Xiang also belonged to my father, my uncles, my brothers, and all the soldiers who died in Tian Guan Lin! Although you may not feel comfortable seeing this, I’m sure they do!”

Jun Mo Xie smiled and said sharply, “You know, I can easily reveal the truth to the world for everyone to judge! What do you think your old brothers would think then?”

Tang Wan Li couldn’t refute. Although he later became an official, he was once a general. He also experienced countless battles. How could he not understand the psychology of soldiers? Anyone who participated in the war, whether alive or dead, would support the Jun Family. But if the truth was to be revealed, the Tian Xiang imperial family would really become infamous for millions of years!

The sacrifice of soldiers should not be framed or smeared. No matter who did it, as long as they plotted against such a general, they had to compensate!

Or no one in the world would be satisfied!

Jun Mo Xie smiled. “Don’t be worried. I won’t do it. I don’t even bother to. I am a member of the Jun Family. I don’t care whether you feel comfortable. As long as they—my father, my uncle, my brothers, and all the soldiers—are comfortable! I feel fine!

“Everyone has their own perspectives! But nothing can stop us from seeking revenge and compensation!” Jun Mo Xie’s eyes were like those of an eagle’s. Sharp and cold. “No matter who he is! He has to compensate!”

Tang Wan Li was silent for a while. Suddenly, he whipped the horse’s buttock, and the strong horse sprinted out. He only left behind a sigh that drifted with the wind.

On the high platform, the brutal punishment was still on going.

Jun Zhan Tian didn’t look good. He stared in the direction Tang Wan Li went and pondered.

Jun Mo Xie smiled and said, “There’s no use think about it. Everyone has their own perspectives. Grandpa, we are just seeking revenge. We aren’t rebels and we have not destroyed Tian Xiang! Besides, I’ve never been interested in rebelling. And I’m sure you haven’t either. I’m sure none of the members of the Jun Family is jealous of the imperial family and wants to replace them!

“Honor is honor; compensation is compensation! They’re basically separate things! Why care about what others have to say? I believe there’s always justice! As for who he is, if Tang Wan Li could have won this debate, he wouldn’t have left like this!”

Jun Zhan Tian sighed, shook his head, and said, “Fine! Maybe they will be uncomfortable, but we must avenge our beloved ones!” He turned back and said, “I’m going home first. You preside over here.”

He stopped and suddenly laughed bitterly. “Absurd! Since when was there a nation that lasted forever? Since when was there a king that lived long? All efforts, struggles, and pride... everything is bound to become dust! They become nothing! Why torture ourselves...” He rode on the horse and went away.

Although it caused a great disturbance in Tian Xiang City on the first day, there were no accidents. The everlasting cries and screams of pain shocked the heavens and the palace. In the palace, the concubines and eunuchs were all pale and trembling. They were all afraid that someone would break into the palace with weapon...

On the second day, the punishment continued. A new batch of people came to watch. Their facial expressions were different, but they obviously were immensely interested in Wen Cang Yu.

A Supreme expert and he could only receive the punishment without any struggle.

Jun Mo Xie always observed what was going on in the palace. On the morning of the second day, all the ministers and heads of large families were summoned to the palace and didn’t go out for long. Jun Mo Xie was not worried at all. No matter what they came up with, he was ready to take them on.

Was there always justice?

There was only justice if they had the strength to seek it! If Jun Mo Xie was still the debauchee he was before, how could there be justice?
