The three of them came to Guan Fuxia's storage room. Ye Chen asked someone to open the door, and there was a smell of dust inside.
When Wenxin entered, Fuxia was tied to a pillar with a piece of cloth stuffed in his mouth. His head was drooping as if he was asleep. When he heard the door open, he raised his head and squinted his eyes to adapt to the sudden light.
The first people he saw were Ye Chen and Shen Qiu. Fu Xia snorted coldly and turned his head away as if he disdained to see them.
Ye Chen and Shen Qiu didn't care either. They just made way for Wen Xin to appear in front of Fu Xia.
Fuxia felt some movement and saw a person covered in light walking towards the door. When he got closer, Fuxia began to struggle, whimpering, with disbelief and a little hatred in his eyes that was not too strong.
Wenxin walked over to Fuxia and pulled the cloth out of his mouth. Fuxia looked at Wenxin and asked, "Are you really going to ignore the people who followed us? Are you really going to betray us?"
Wen Xin didn't answer Fu Xia's question, but turned to Ye Chen and clasped his hands together, "Amitabha, Mr. Ye, can you let me have a few words with Fu Xia?"
Ye Chen nodded, pulled Shenqiu out and closed the door. Let the brother and sister talk about their own affairs.
Seeing the door closed, Wenxin looked back at Fuxia, then sighed and walked over to untie the rope on Fuxia.
Fu Xia didn't get an answer from Wen Xin. He wanted to turn around and look at Wen Xin who was walking behind him. "Answer my question. Did you really betray us?"
Wenxin still didn't answer, but just untied the rope for Fuxia. Fuxia took a deep breath in anger and yelled at Wenxin: "I'm asking you a question. Did you really betray us?"
Wenxin threw the untied rope to the ground, then clasped his hands together in front of Fuxia, "It doesn't matter whether you betrayed me or not. I exchanged the information for your life, and now I'm taking you away. First, I want you to survive, and second, I want to prevent the Great Yin Kingdom from falling into chaos. The people of the Great Yin Kingdom are descendants of the people of the Great Da Kingdom. If the Great Yin Kingdom is stable, they can live a stable life."
Every time Fuxia met Wenxin, he would always say that the people of the Great Yin Kingdom were the people of the Great Da Kingdom. After listening to him so many times, he actually started to have the same idea.
Fu Xia shook his head to get rid of such thoughts, then snorted coldly, covered his lower right abdomen, walked forward a step or two, sat on a wooden box, and let out a long breath.
He looked up at Wenxin and said, "What about those who followed us? What should we do with them? How many people with the surname Li were killed by the Chus in the palace? Will their great vengeance not be avenged? The descendants of the Li family are born as members of the Dasha and die as the souls of the Dasha. I named myself Fuxia to remind myself of this oath. Whether I live or die, I will never betray their loyalty."
"Brother, you can escape but I can't. If you escape, I'll be there for you, but what if I leave? What will happen to them? They are the most important people to me. They have made so much effort to restore the Great Xia Kingdom. Three generations of our family have been fighting for it, and now some have even joined the fourth generation. If I give up on them, I won't dare see them even if I die."
Wen Xin sighed, "So many people have already fallen into this hopeless situation. Do we want to let more of them get stuck in this? Restoring our Li family's kingdom shouldn't cost them such a price. We can't afford it."
"Wouldn't it be better to let them live a normal life? They are all doing various jobs now. Even if they quit the Order of the Phoenix, they will not be unable to make a living. They have enough ability to survive, don't they?"
Fu Xia smiled, then stood up and walked back and forth. "Brother, you are too naive. Just because they have paid so much, do you think they will be willing to give up now? At least they won't start a riot if I am alive. If I die, once the news of my death spreads, the Great Yin Kingdom will immediately fall into chaos. You knew the consequences of this, so you asked Ye Chen to spare my life, right?"
Wenxin didn't say anything, because Fuxia was not only his sister but also the head of the Order of the Phoenix. He knew that Fuxia's position in the hearts of the Order of the Phoenix was just like his own position in the hearts of the Order of the Phoenix, and even more important than his own. After all, he gave up on them, and Fuxia had never had such thoughts.
"Come with me, I will take you back to Xiangguo Temple."
"Will Ye Chen agree to you? Isn't he afraid that I will run away?"
"He will agree. Donor Ye is a smart man. He knows how important you are, so he agreed to my deal."
Wenxin opened the door. Ye Chen and Shen Qiu were sitting on the stone bench in the yard, a little distance away from the door. After all, Shen Qiu was a martial artist. If he stood outside the door, his ears would be filled with their conversation even if he didn't want to hear it, so he simply walked away.
Seeing someone coming out, Ye Chen and Shen Qiu stood up and walked over. "Have you two finished your discussion? What's the final decision?"
Wenxin clasped his hands together in front of his chest and said, "Amitabha, I will take Fuxia to Xiangguo Temple and enlighten her with the Dharma. I will persuade her to let go of her obsession and hatred!"
Ye Chen looked at Fu Xia, then at Wen Xin, "I promised you that if you catch Fu Xia, I would hand her over to you. You can take her away. I hope you will take good care of her. If I catch her again, it will be beyond my promise."
He bowed his head and said, "Amitabha, I will remember this!"
After sending Wenxin away, Chen Qiu asked Ye Chen, "Why did Fuxia hide in our house? Although the most dangerous place is the safest place, she wasn't injured that day. She had a hiding place before the assassination attempt on us, so it doesn't make sense that she didn't have a place to go afterward. Moreover, she was the only one hiding in our house, and there were at least thirty people there that day!"
Ye Chen was also thinking about this question. Suddenly, they both thought of something and said in unison, "There's a traitor among them!"
"Yes, it is very likely. With Fuxia's skills and so many people around her, if they were from the imperial court, they would not have hurt her, but we didn't hear any movement. It is very likely that there was an internal conflict among them, and she was hurt when she was off guard. Her people would not have thought that she would hide in the house of her enemy. We were away during that time, and even if we came back, we would not have thought that she would hide in our house. In addition, our house is really too big, and it is too difficult to detect someone like her hiding there." Ye Chen looked at Chen Qiu analyzing this matter. He was so happy no matter how he looked at it, and his eyes became more and more gentle.
