I am invincible, that's why I lie down. You're using your entire clan to rebel?

north.

The wind and snow continue.

Xu Longxiang stood in the study, not moving for a long time.

He had remained silent ever since Mo Ya reported the unusual occurrences around Zhao San.

The candlelight on the table flickered gently.

His shadow stretched very long.

Fan Li stood aside, watching Xu Longxiang's back.

he knows.

At this moment, Xu Longxiang was deep in thought.

They are also weighing the options.

"Your Highness."

Fan Li finally spoke.

"About Zhao San..."

Xu Longxiang raised his hand, interrupting him.

"No need to say anything more."

Fan Li was taken aback.

Xu Longxiang turned around.

He still had a smile on his face.

"Fan Li".

"Have you forgotten something?"

"What?"

"If Zhao San really has a problem."

"So what?"

Fan Li frowned.

Xu Longxiang walked to the table and picked up the intelligence report about Zhao San.

"He has the ability."

"Ambitious."

"But he has no foundation."

"What this kind of person needs most is an opportunity."

"And me."

"It was given to him."

Fan Li remained silent.

Xu Longxiang continued:

"I made him the best in the world."

"Let the entire martial arts world know his name."

"To give him a status he never dared to imagine before."

"This kind of kindness."

"It can't be erased with just a doubt."

Fan Li said softly:

"But Your Highness."

People's hearts can change.

Xu Longxiang smiled.

"People's hearts will change, of course."

That's why I want him to know.

"Follow me."

His voice paused for a moment.

"That's the best choice for him."

Fan Li looked at him.

I didn't try to persuade them any further.

Because he knew.

Xu Longxiang had considered the risks.

He just trusted his own judgment too much.

And this kind of confidence.

Sometimes this is the biggest advantage of someone in a position of power.

This is also its biggest weakness.

……

at the same time.

Northern Mang.

Qingshi Ferry.

Qin Mu was drinking tea in his tent.

The Wuhuan stood to the side.

He was holding a newly compiled list.

"His Majesty."

"Currently, 70% of the generals at Qingshidu are willing to accept the new arrangements."

Qin Mu nodded.

"What about the remaining 30%?"

The Wuhuan remained silent.

"Still observing."

Qin Mu smiled.

"That's normal."

"Replace anyone else."

"They won't accept that their owner has changed so quickly."

Wu Huan whispered:

"But what if they don't accept..."

Qin Mu looked up.

"Then let's find someone else."

His tone was calm.

There was no intent to kill.

This made the Wuhuan people's hearts skip a beat.

He finally understood.

Why was Qin Mu able to reach his current position?

Because of his kindness.

It was never a sign of weakness.

His tolerance.

It's not that there are no bottom lines.

He can give others a chance.

But we won't give others a second chance.

……

At this time.

Footsteps could be heard outside the tent.

Yin Sutang walked in.

"Young master."

Qin Mu looked at her.

"explain."

Yin Sutang whispered:

"News has come from the Xuan Yin Sect."

"In the north, Xu Longxiang has already begun mobilizing troops."

"at the same time."

"The Moon Goddess Cult has also begun to reactivate."

Upon hearing this...

The Wuhuan's expression changed slightly.

"The Moon Goddess Cult hasn't disappeared yet?"

Yin Sutang shook her head.

"no."

"Previously, we only lost some peripheral forces."

"The real core is still there."

The Wuhuan frowned.

"That sect..."

He had heard of the Luna Cult before.

I knew it was an extremely dangerous entity.

Qin Mu simply smiled.

"Let them move."

The Wuhuan were puzzled.

"His Majesty?"

Qin Mu put down his teacup.

"They don't move."

"Xu Longxiang will not be at ease."

"They started moving."

"Only then will the game become more and more complete."

The Wuhuan remained silent.

He suddenly realized.

The gap between myself and Qin Mu.

It's not just about strength.

It's also about broadening one's horizons.

What he saw was the Northern Wilderness before him.

What Qin Mu saw.

It is the whole world.

……

late at night.

Qin Mu walked out of the tent alone.

Outside Qingshi Ferry.

The river has frozen over with a thin layer of ice.

Moonlight falls on the ice.

It gleamed with a cold light.

Yunluan stood not far away.

"His Majesty."

Qin Mu did not turn around.

"Um?"

Yunluan said:

"If Xu Longxiang knew that you were in Northern Mang."

"What will be the reaction?"

Qin Mu smiled.

"It should be very interesting."

Yunluan remained silent.

Qin Mu continued:

"That person."

"Actually, it's not bad."

"I have the ability."

"Ambitious."

"They also have their own principles."

"pity……"

He looked into the distance.

"He chose the wrong path."

Yunluan asked:

"Will His Majesty kill him?"

The wind blew by.

Qin Mu remained silent for a moment.

Then he said:

"Let's see what his final choice is."

Yunluan did not ask any further questions.

she knows.

Qin Mu has always been like this.

He doesn't decide a person's fate in advance.

He will only give the other party a chance.

Let the other person face that outcome on their own.
