Translator: chuchutrain Editor: DavidT, Rock

The next course of action for Ling Jian was not to begin listening to what they were talking about below, but to re on recuperation! Having pushed his movement techniques to such an extreme, his face was already a pale white as a result of overexertion If he didn't recuperate iht he fail to obtain any infor found out because of his heavy breathing!

It was only after silently revolving his energy through a ently placed his ear on the roof tile below him!

A soft voice sounded fro all of you here is because I have a matter I wish to discuss" A cultured and refined voice sounded, "Ling Tian has traveled north all the way from Western Han Yesterday, about thirty kilometers from our city, he butchered sixteen first-rate experts fro theht Jade City at this time, so I have called all of you here to coy to deal with him!"

From below came the collective sound of deep breaths A first-rate assassin frohter Pavilion! All of them knehat that meant and what they represented, but to think that they were annihilated in one fell swoop by hi a scratch on hi Tian's e? How could they deal with such a character? Who had the ability?!

"However, Ling Tian ht Jade City and would likely be disguised" After a ed voice sounded, "If we can find Ling Tian before he discovers us spying on him, then we have absolute confidence that we can behead and kill hiht Jade City Once he dies, then it will be a cause for celebration!"

Once the words were spoken, the rest of theey's words ht noeren't theTian had used to enter Bright Jade City, and where he was at? If they already knew that, then why did the Family Head need theo out and kill him!

"Faht actually be able to lure Ling Tian out" That aged voice continued on at the sa from tomorroe can shut the four doors of the city and immediately send out our troops to search every house First, this will ease the anxiety that the citizens feel regarding the recent assassinations from the First Pavilion, and second, the Shui Faht Jade City in order to take advantage of the chaos to scheme We can use this chance to capture the lot of them Lastly, and also thethe rebel party to search for Ling Tian" He paused to cough, before continuing, "In na Fa Tian, we still have to find an excuse to arrest hih with this plan…"

"Family Head, a dumb idea has its benefits We can use this chance to place all of the foreigners with unknown statuses under our control! Or, to ensnare everyone! If Ling Tian is within this group of people, he naturally will retaliate Then we can take this chance to simply finish him off!"

"Isn't that inappropriate? If we do it that ouldn't it attract hatred fro the citizen's hearts, the gains don't justify our losses Slaughtering innocents, is that what a person who aims to reach the top should do?" another leader countered

"This is not so, let's not talk about achieving the top, unbothered about the little trifles We definitely can't allow ourselves to be soft-hearted Furthero, the First Pavilion has already begun their series of assassinations, causing the entire Bright Jade City to be on edge Even noe're suffering fro more and more critical As for the officials that we put in as replacements, they've all been exposed to be lackeys under the Shui Faun, the effects are actually similar to my plan Thus, our priority now is to i! Clear out all the spies, causing Bright Jade to plunge into chaos once again! When that ti down the place under the na order, and capture all those 'murderers' Even if we overdo it a little, it does not ic?"

The oldabout a sense of irritation to those who heard it His voice also carried a tone of treating hu those around hi cold The old , "If one wishes to rule at the top, they must use the hearts of the citizens The hearts of the citizens can be used and should be used If the citizens' hearts can't be used, then they must be incited If neither method works, then they should be destroyed!"

A look of praise appeared on Yu ManLou's face The hearts of the citizens should be used if available, incited and provoked if unavailable, and destroyed if unable to be used! This phrase coincided with his exact beliefs

The rest remained silent, and only the person who voiced his opinions earlier argued once again, "Isn't it too overbearing to si Tian, it's not worth getting thousands to accompany him in death! If that's the case, then how different are we cohter the innocent?"

The eerie voice rebutted at this point, "Pavilion Head Huang, you should know that so long as that punk Ling Tian doesn't die, he will becoemony! When the time comes and we meet on the battlefield, even if ere to claim the victory in the end, how ht even be included in that nu, Ling Tian charged alone on horseback into a 400,000 strong army, and in just a few seconds, he took up to 10,000 lives! How could we leave such a character alone? To have a few thousand people acco Tian die or our entire Yu Faainst Ling Tian, but those innocent citizens…"

"Innocent people who die for no reason at all are found everywhere! How could you luether? Why do you not question the endless chaos and battles that happen continuously day after day, causing countless innocent citizens to be killed every year? Which of them aren't innocent? If one has to care about any and every randoenorant?"
