I Don't Know Martial Art Chapter 379

Chapter 379 - Born in Chaos

"What do you guys know? This prince is called WeChat Private Patrol. Come to Tiger City to check on the situation and see if any of you guys are doing your best to guard Tiger City. Um, I don't want to deal with you guys, what are you guys like now?" Xiang Yun said righteously.

When everyone heard this, they could only look at each other and smile bitterly. Although they could sense that Xiang Yun was still chatting and laughing with them, they could not help but feel a little more restrained.

After all, Xiang Yun's ident.i.ty had changed tremendously, going from being a city patrol captain to being the exalted crown prince. As common city guards, no matter how close they were with Xiang Yun, they were unable to treat him as a normal city patrol captain at the moment. Of course, this did not stop them from respecting Xiang Yun.

Everyone chatted and laughed for a while. Yan Bao, who was lying on the sickbed, hesitated for a while and then asked, "Team, uh, Crown Prince, will you still be staying in Tiger City from now on?"

The moment he said this, everyone who had been joking immediately quieted down as they cast their gazes towards Xiang Yun with hope.

"Ai …" Xiang Yun had already known that this moment would come. Seeing the faint look of antic.i.p.ation in everyone's eyes, Xiang Yun could not bear to deceive them. In the end, he sighed, "I shouldn't be staying for long."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent for a moment, their gazes darken. Although Xiang Yun hadn't spent much time with everyone, the respect and grat.i.tude the patrolling guards felt towards him was from the bottom of their hearts.

Xiang Yun's arrival had allowed them to live once more, bringing out the dignity of the patrolling guards, and Xiang Yun's reckless actions had deeply moved them. Even though their statuses had changed drastically, their hearts towards Xiang Yun were sincere; they were not willing to part with him!

Looking at the atmosphere which had suddenly turned silent, Xiang Yun felt rather uncomfortable and could not help but scold with a smile.

"You guys, I haven't left yet. Why are you all so low, do you want to stay or send me off? Let me tell you this, don't think that you can relax just because the Snow Wolf rides here that much. Your daily patrols will have to continue for a long time! "

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up slightly, as if they had returned to the day when Xiang Yun had led them on a patrol around the city!

"Alright, all of you get the h.e.l.l back to your father's place to rest. Tomorrow morning, all those who can get up, come and report on time!"

"Yes sir!" At Xiang Yun's command, everyone stood up to answer.

Seeing that everyone had gone down to rest, Xiang Yun went to find Xiang Lei, who was currently in the business hall.

There was already only Xiang Lei left in the meeting hall. Xiang Yun closed the door and sat down on the chair beside the head's seat. Seeing that Xiang Jinglei had yet to speak, he took the initiative to ask, "Has everything been arranged?"

Xiang Jinglei nodded calmly, "Yes, I have already investigated all of Xue Ba's troops and cleared them out long ago. Now that the Black Tortoise Cavalry has returned to my control, as for the Tiger City, with the Snow Wolf Cavalry that I've sent over to guard it, I can naturally ensure that nothing will go wrong."

"What about the north? When I came here, the entire northern border was already in chaos. Bandits ran rampant, and the lives of the common people were already in a difficult situation. "

This was what worried Xiang Yun the most. He still vividly remembered the tragic scenes he had witnessed on his journey to the northern border. He sympathized with the commoners there.

As he spoke of this matter, Lei's complexion clearly became heavier!

However, he still said, "Don't worry about this. Half a year ago, I had already garrisoned troops to the north, and when I came here tonight, I had already ordered to destroy all the bandits, pacify the people, and spread the news that the Snow Wolf Cavalry is stationed in Tiger City. I believe that we will soon be able to calm down and restore peace to the north."

Hearing these words, Xiang Yun was not only not happy, but also somewhat angry as he spoke.

He said, "Why didn't you intervene to stop this? You could have prevented this from happening."

Xiang Jinglei calmly replied, "I can't, I don't dare either."

He understood his big brother very well. Since young, his temper had been explosive and his personality was straightforward. As long as he wanted to do something, there was nothing he did not dare to do, other than Royal Father, he would not lower his head to anyone. Such a proud person would actually say, 'He doesn't dare'.

Without even needing Xiang Yun to ask, Xiang Lei had already continued, "I know you're blaming me for not intervening earlier to calm this storm, causing chaos and causing the death of many innocent civilians in this calamity."

"Indeed, if I had acted in time, the disturbance would have settled down in an instant. But if that were to happen, the consequences would be even worse!"

Xiang Jinglei's eyes immediately became serious. "The barbarians have been keeping a low profile all these years. They have already recovered their Yuan power. Moreover, they are eyeing our Wind Cloud Country covetously. They are secretly h.o.a.rding strategic resources and gathering intelligence and secrets everywhere."

"The Jensen Trading Company in Tiger City is their information hub. They gathered intelligence here and bribed Xue Ba in order to control the entire northern region."

"I was indeed the first to realize this point. I wanted to destroy the Gesun Trading Company and Dima before killing Xue Ba, but I couldn't do that, especially after Royal Father's accident!"

The moment he said this, the two brothers fell silent for a moment. Xiang Jinglei had helped Xiang Yun a.n.a.lyze the situation.

Their father, Xiang Ling, had been surrounded and killed by the four platinum experts of the Hall of a.s.sa.s.sins in the southern region, but he himself didn't know if he had survived or not. This matter had already spread throughout the entire Wind Cloud Country, including the barbarians.

A person's life and death seemed insignificant in this country's situation, but Xiang Tian's life and death was a grand matter!

If he really was dead, then no one in the Windcloud Nation would be able to stand up and take on the banner against the Berserkers. Even if it was Xiang Jinghong and Xiang clap with both of their outstanding talents, they would still be unable to shoulder the heavy responsibility before they fully matured.

Without Xiang Tian, the five of them would have been able to fight off the experts of the barbarian race, and there was no lack of experts in the Empire of Feng Yun as well. It was even said that there were three heaven-step masters in the Dragon City, but they still didn't dare to boast about their strength, as they were able to defend themselves against any one of the eight barbarian kings.

When Xiang Tian fell, the situation in the northern region immediately became delicate, like a flood wrapped in a thin film. A simple poke might cause a flash flood to erupt!

After Xiang Jinglei a.n.a.lyzed all of this to Xiang Yun, he could only sigh helplessly as he spoke.

In order to prevent all of this from happening, I can only endure as they slowly carry out their plan, endure as they humiliate the citizens of Tiger City, endure as they slowly pull back their nets, unrestrainedly pull back their nets, gradually expose them, and when the time is ripe, I will put everything on the line for them.

"This time, I've completely captured the Gesun trading firm and Xue Ba's forces. The barbarian invasion has been disrupted. Even if this doesn't stop the war, we can drag it out a bit longer because Storm Country needs time. I also need time!"

It was not his wish to send the north into chaos. However, the barbarians were much stronger now, and if he decided to act on his own initiative, the situation would escalate to a whole new level.

Thus, he could only sacrifice himself to become the greater self. Everything he did was an act of helplessness.

"Sigh … but they're all innocent …" For a moment, Xiang Yun found it hard to accept this kind of cruel sacrifice.

"We can't have both sides in this world!"

In order to not be cruel to more people, I can only choose to be the evil one! " Xiang Jinglei's voice was low but firm.

Xiang Yun's eyes flashed when he heard this, but he was speechless for a moment. That's right! This world is a place where one cannot control oneself, where is the beauty of both sides?

"Big Brother, do you know what the situation is with Royal Father?"

Mentioning Xiang Tian, worry appeared in the eyes of the two brothers unconsciously. Even though Xiang Yun had always called this man 'cheap father', it was not so easy to part with their bloodline. They would still worry about him from time to time.

However, Xiang Jinglei actually sighed and shook his head in the face of Xiang Yun's question.

"Big brother doesn't even know you?" Xiang Yun was a little shocked.

"After father was attacked, the scouts I sent to the south were unable to find out the exact information. I only know that father was indeed heavily injured and seemed to be in closed-door training. I don't know the actual situation and only know that his dantian was damaged. I'm afraid his cultivation can't protect itself!"

"What!"

Hearing this, Xiang Yun's expression finally turned ugly once more. Xiang Tian's cultivation was unquestionable even to say that he was the number one person in the entire Wind Cloud Kingdom. He, who had been pursuing the end of the martial way his entire life, was actually unable to protect his cultivation.

Xiang Yun really could not imagine what would happen if that G.o.d-like man had lost all his cultivation. Could the him at that time still be clad in white like snow, waving his hand and pointing at the universe?

For a moment, Xiang Yun actually felt a lump in his chest, an extremely stifling feeling!

Seeing Xiang Yun's expression, Xiang Jinglei sucked in a deep breath and forcefully patted Xiang Yun's shoulder, saying, "Third Brother!"

Xiang Yun also looked at Xiang Jinglei. This big brother of his very rarely called him Third Brother.

Xiang Jinglei's tiger-like eyes stared straight at Xiang Yun, his large hands pinching Xiang Yun's shoulders painfully as he spoke word by word.

"Third brother, now that you have grown up, you should shoulder the responsibility. Now that our father is in trouble, the situation in the Windy Nation is in turmoil, but the world has changed. Our brothers cannot change, and the only ones who can save the situation are us!"

Looking at Xiang Lei's solemn gaze, Xiang Yun felt the pressure on his shoulders at this moment. There was a barbarian on the northern side of the Wind Cloud Kingdom eyeing him covetously, and his father in the south was under unknown attack. The Dragon City, which was the center of the country, was currently as steady as Mt. Tai.

The current situation was dangerous for the Wind Cloud Country, but for the Royal Family of the Shoulder Kings, it was no doubt that they were facing internal and external dangers. If they were not careful, it would be a disaster for them!

Without the protection of Xiang Tian, there were only the three Xiang brothers in Silver City. They had to face the storm head on!

"Big Brother, don't worry. I will definitely grow up and fight alongside all of you as soon as possible!"

Facing such a heavy burden, perhaps the old Xiang Yun would choose to flee, but the current him would not fear it in the slightest!

"Good boy, you are indeed a real man now!" Xiang Jinglei's eyes lit up, waving his hand and saying: "It's rare to be together with you, we've never had a drink before. I'll get someone to bring a few jars of good wine over right now, we brothers will have a good drink together!"

Xiang Yun looked at the carefree and bold Xiang Jinglei, a heroic feeling surging in his heart as he immediately waved his hand, "Big Brother, there's no need for others to take it. I have good wine here. We won't leave until we're drunk!"

Xiang Yun directly brought out a few jars of osmanthus wine from his storage ring, puncturing the seal and filling the air with the fragrance of wine. Xiang Jinglei's nose twitched, his eyes lighting up the moment he smelled the aroma!

He excitedly picked up a jar of wine and started drinking. After drinking a mouthful, Xiang Lei let out a long breath and said a single word!

"Awesome!"
