Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 2525

"Should I not be?" Long Qian Xing asked back, his tone remained indifferent.

Shangguan Xiao sipped the tea and smiled faintly but didn’t answer.

The two of them have their own concerns and their own plans in their lives. This meeting was just a short exchange and there was no way they would explain what they actually wanted to do so clearly.

"Do you want to ask something else, General Xing?"

"I just want to know whether you will be affected by the people whom you dealt with before," Long Qian Xing looked at Shangguan Xiao. "The cause of rebellions are very diverse."

Diverse?

In the past few years, Shangguan Xiao had met with various people who hung the banner of rebellions in the east area. Each and every single one of them shouted different slogan and he also learned their reason for launching a rebellion.

Starting from the farmer who lacked food.

To those nobles who said that they were oppressed and wanted more money for themselves.

There were a lot of variety.

But…

"I’m a general of Fei Yang Kingdom," Shangguan Xiao said calmly. "What intention do you think I will have?"

Rebellion?

Just because the Shangguan Family was destroyed in the flames of war?

It was too ridiculous.

Long Qian Xing looked at Shangguan Xiao calmly and stood up. "That’s good to hear, Shangguan Xiao."

After that, Long Qian Xing turned around and left.

Shangguan Xiao didn’t move from his position and watched Long Qian Xing’s back, shaking his head slightly.

It was true that the Shangguan Family lost everything in the war, but they also gained many things from the war. Because the main reason why his grandfather was able to rise in the past was because of the war.

Unfortunately, his father was not lucky enough to survive for a long time.

But Shangguan Xiao knew very well that his father wanted to die on the battlefield rather than dying as a sickly old man at home.

Being able to die on the battlefield is an honor.

This was something that Shangguan Xiao had heard many times from both of his father and grandfather.

So he was not that sad.

And many years have passed.

"If I’m not the head of the Shangguan Family… I’ll not even bother coming back," Shangguan Xiao whispered in a low voice.

His dreams have never been to stay in Cheng City and worked his *sses to manage business or to enter the court and become an official. While he and Shangguan Yun could be considered as an outlier in the entire Shangguan Family, his dream was to become a general.

This was a dream that he had carried ever since he was young.

How could it be possible for him to let it go?

The movements of the Shangguan Family in Cheng City was indeed under his order but it was simply because he wanted to fulfill his promise. The promise as the head of the Shangguan Family.
