"So, what you mean with all of this Jun? You know that Uncle Xiao Zi is the suspect. No, I am hundred percent sure that he is the one behind all of this, and you ask me to wait? Do you even consider to take a revenge on our parent?" Xiao Tianyao hissed through his teeth. He shook away Xiao Jun hand which grabbed his arms.
"Tianyao, they are my parents too!" Xiao Jun replied sternly.
The two brothers glared at each other for a minute before Xiao Jun lowered his eyes and sighed in defeat.
"Jun." Xiao Tianyao called him coldly. "If uncle Xiao Zi is the suspect, how about Xinghe Kingdom? Did they involve in this mess?"
"I had been investigating the truth since Xiao Wang Wei destroyed Mountain Sui Sword Sect. As far as I know Xinghe's Emperor only looking for The Stone Paradox of Time."
"Do you mean Uncle Xiao Zi defaming Xinghe Emperor for killing our parent? And he actually declared a war for this!?" Xiao Tianyao gloomily bellowed.
Thousand people die because of this matter which actually only a politic game for Xiao Zi, this was truly despicable.
"Tianyao. There is someone else behind Xiao Zi."
Xiao Tianyao fixed his eyes on his brother. "Someone has been pulling the string behind all of this mess?"
"Misty Cloud Clan."
"Misty Cloud Clan?"
"How this matter is related to that mysterious clan?" Xiao Tianyao knew about this clan. Because except Black Sword Clan from Azura Kingdom, there were Crescent Dew Clan and Misty Cloud Clan, the three Clans were famous as 3 Formidable Clan Forces.
However, the things that Xiao Tianyao knew about Misty Cloud Clan, in this entire year they always kept low profile and never had anything to do with the Country's politic. Their Clan rarely appeared or involved in a battle.
"Because Misty Cloud Clan is the one who give information about the heirloom of mind controller, The Stone Paradox of Time, to the two Kingdoms. Their Clan knew about the last place of that stone before it disappear. The last place is indeed in Xinghe Kingdom."
Xiao Tianyao fell silent as he contemplated Xiao Jun explanation. Looking his brother a little bit calm, Xiao Jun continued. "Killing Xiao Zi is right since he had killed our parent. But, it will create another turbulence inside the palace. If you kill him now without solid evidence, many people will pin the blame on you. Xiao Wang Wei will use this opportunity to ascend the throne with the support of their faction and Misty Cloud Clan." Xiao Jun smiled bitterly. "And for me, I won't be able to protect you. Probably, I will die in the process too along with Black Sword Clan which is led by Commander Dam, if he decided to stand on my side. If you kill him now, it won't benefit us."
Xiao Jun tried to give Xiao Tianyao the image of the consequences if he kept act impulsively and gave him the explanation why he hadn't done it by himself to kill Xiao ZI.
Xiao Tianyao gripped the hilt of his sword until his knuckle turned white to hold himself from the raging anger inside his heart. He knew that Xiao Jun had tried his best to survive in this bloody battle for throne and keep him safe. But, to realize that nothing he could do now when he knew the truth behind it. He felt very angry at himself.
Xiao Jun put his hand on top of Xiao Tianyao's hand that was gripping the hilt of his sword, "Everything will be fine." He said in low voice to calm him down. "Everything will be fine, my brother."
His little brother never told him anything about how he felt when their parent suddenly passed away, but he knew that it was a big blow for him. Xiao Tianyao gradually changed to be more hotheaded and put a distance with people around him. He was only 12 years old when they have to face the cruelty of life.
With a long deep sighed, Xiao Tianyao spoke. "What can I do for you?"
"For now, help me to gather more information about Misty Cloud Clan. Master Ye Xiu has been keeping tab on Xinghe Kingdom."
"Are you sure he was in our side?"
"Certainly."
"Why don't you discuss this matter with Elder Dam?"
Xiao Jun shook his head. "After this incident, he won't listen anything about Xinghe Kingdom. Especially about Master Ye Xiu that had kidnapped his granddaughter. For another reason, I discovered that someone has been spying on Black Sword Clan, but I don't have any idea who is it."
"General Wang Yu?" Xiao Tianyao tried to throw a guess.
"Too fast to say if he is a spy, he is indeed had black record. But, that is two different things."
"He was someone who is thirsty of power."
"For now, don't mention anything about this and be cautious around General Wang Yu."
"Hmm." Xiao Tianyao answered curtly and turned his back to leave.
Xiao Jun looked at his brother retreating back as a memory of their childhood flashing in his mind. Xiao Tianyao was a happy child back then, he smiled often.
***
Senja didn't wake up until the day after tomorrow, so all of them held back in the lodgment for extra day.
The moment the little girl woke up she didn't say anything about what had happened to her. She would speak only when someone asked her, but beside that she kept quite all day.
Inside the room before they were ready to leave the lodgment and all people gather together in Senja's room as Elder Dam tried to ask the previous matter.
"Was this the man who kidnapped you who tortured you like this my child?" Elder Dam inquired Senja with loving voice.
"Yes." Senja nodded with head low while fiddling with her quilt.
"You are safe now my child, don't worry." Elder Dam cupped Senja's face and gave her reassuring look. "No one will hurt you again."
"Hmm." Senja only mumbled and refused to look at Elder Dam back.
Xiao Tianyao stole a glance at Wang Yu's expression, but he couldn't find anything on his straight face, and as for Senja, he couldn't understand why the little girl lied to her grandfather.
First, she protected Ye Xiu by gave her grandfather wrong direction and now she lied to him about someone who hurt her. Xiao Tianyao was there that night hence he knew it wasn't Ye Xiu who had hurt her.
