"Third Sister, what are the Thousand Blades Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion?" Xiao Mingyue reached out and pulled Gu Xin, tilting her head slightly as she asked.
“In the past, there were two very powerful assassin organizations in the Great Zhou Dynasty. As long as you could afford the money, they would kill for you. The one in white was the leader of the Thousand Blades Sect. Back then, he was really fierce, unlike the smiling face you usually see. Back then, even if he smiled at you, you would feel that he was going to kill you. You couldn't feel any smile at all, only coldness,” Gu Xin explained.
Gu Yingxue turned her head to look at Gu Ren.
How could a novel with a strong male protagonist not have an assassin organization?
Gu Ren looked up at the sky innocently. What boy doesn't have a martial arts dream in his heart?
"What about the Pavilion Master of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion? And Third Sister, why is Bai Yi following our family? What about his Thousand Blades Sect?" Little Mingyue was still young and had no idea what had happened to Gu Xin when she was a child.
In her opinion, the man in white was quite skilled. Their Goddess Kingdom admired strong people, regardless of gender, so she was quite curious about the man in white.
"He's still the leader of the Thousand Blades Sect, but the sect no longer exists. All his subordinates have scattered to do other things. Bai Er and a few others followed him, and I don't know what he assigned them to. Anyway, they're no longer killing for others. As for the leader of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, when they tried to kill me, Yuan Yuan took a blow for me, and then they killed the leader of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion. The people of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion were also recruited by Bai Yi. Those who obeyed were given jobs, and those who disobeyed were made to do hard labor, the kind they'd do for life. Bai Yi originally followed..." "I was attached to Brother Yuanyuan, but he wanted to protect me, so he asked Baiyi to send people to protect me. Baiyi initially sent Bai Er, Bai Si, and a few others in even numbers, while the odd-numbered ones worked for him in the capital. Later, our family went to Kunzhou. After that, Brother Yuanyuan finished what he had asked Baiyi to do in the capital, so Baiyi went to Kunzhou and joined Brother Yuanyuan's army. After the war, you know the Emperor wanted to appoint Baiyi as a general, right? But he's always been used to freedom, so he chose to stay with our family. That's about it." Gu Xin said, holding Xiaomingyue's hand as they walked.
The Gu family children were very familiar with the palace. Although palace servants came to greet them, they knew that Princess Xinxin was having a private conversation with Princess Mingyue, so the servants kept a distance.
"Then why is Baiyi now willing to work for the Emperor? Wasn't he always unwilling before?" Xiaomingyue asked again.
She seemed calmer than other girls her age, but she was still a little girl and didn't understand anything about love and romance.
"Because Baiyi found someone he was willing to fight for. In our family, he could only do what we told him to do, and couldn't give the person he loved the best he could give. So, he chose to work for Uncle Emperor, so that he could do his best to fight for and create better conditions for the person he loved." Gu Xin tried to explain in terms that Xiaomingyue could understand.
"So, the person he's willing to fight for is that beautiful Boss Du we had dinner with before?" Xiaomingyue immediately thought of her boyfriend.
She thought Du San Niang was beautiful, but the way they, the Goddess Kingdom, appreciated women was different from that of the Great Zhou.
