Chapter 338
…
"Team leader, Xie Sha and I are classmates, so why don't we let her live with me?" Mu Jiao saw that Bowen had already arranged the other three boys, so she asked Bowen.
"Alright." Bowen nodded. Living with a girl would also keep Mu Ping away from coming here, and he wouldn't have to worry about keeping an eye on him. Bowen was naturally happy with Mu Jiao's suggestion.
…
"Master, are you all right?" Ze Jiu looked at the debris-strewn ground, hesitant to move. Fortunately, Mu Jiao's figure had just reappeared on the big screen. Huo Qi's mood had obviously improved when he saw the cheerful people in the video. Ze Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief and tentatively asked Huo Qi.
"Yeah." Huo Qi bent down, picked up the test report from the sharp fragments on the ground, and handed it to Ze Jiu, saying:
"You take a look too."
"Master, this... the murderer behind this is truly insidious!! We've truly fallen into their trap! Our soldiers didn't die on the battlefield, but were instead possessed by these things... At that time, our nation was weak, and targeting us would have been tantamount to destroying their own foundation. How could they be so ruthless!!"
"When the time of life and death has passed, we will naturally become an eyesore." Huo Qi stated the cruel reality in the vortex of power in a cold voice.
"However, fortunately, I made him disappear... Without a leader, the country will be in chaos for a few years." Huo Qi looked at Mu Jiao's happy smile on the big screen, and a ray of light entered his gloomy heart, and it was no longer so cold.
Ze Jiu lowered his head. He knew exactly who his master was talking about: the vanished former Crown Prince, the former Crown Prince adored by the new clan—Huo Sheng Rex. Before this incident, who would have imagined that such a righteous and upright man, renowned for his virtue, the future heir to the empire, could harbor such shameful and sinister tactics?
In order to suppress their brothers, they did not hesitate to harm national interests and persecute the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers fighting for their country.
"Master, what should we do next? Should the Third Prince..."
Huo Qi shook his head and rejected Ze Jiu's proposal to suppress Huo Lie Rex immediately.
"Oh, boss, you are hypocritical. Now, I don't think I am a good person either. Among the three sons of this old man, my third brother is the most sincere one now." Huo Qi smiled bitterly. It seemed that he was always like this along the way... completely different.
"Master..." Ze Jiu couldn't help but think of the Second Prince at that time. Although his identity was criticized, he lost his mother at a young age and had experienced many hardships, he was still a young man with ambition. He went to war for the country with full of blood and led the soldiers to fight in the war. When he won, he would smile like a normal young man and hold his chest proudly.
Huo Qi's sadness seemed to last only a moment. Before Ze Jiu could say anything to comfort him, Huo Qi regained his usual composure. His eyes became deep and cold again, as if he was no longer the same person who had been a little sad just now.
He was no longer the impassioned young man he once was. Since his passion couldn't protect what he wanted, he would stand at the pinnacle of power. Huo Qi looked at the ordinary tent on the big screen. He hadn't protected his mother, nor had he protected the tens of thousands of soldiers who had died, but he would definitely protect her. He would also take back what he had lost and what he wanted.
"Zejiu, tell the third brother about how my good brother disappeared. Don't tell him the whole story, just tell him how I forced him to his death step by step."
