Chapter 405 Prince Yang Lu’s Negotiation

The man\'s eyes lit up. Right, when they accepted this secret mission, the reward was triple the usual assassination reward. It was so much that he knew that he wouldn\'t be able to waste it all so quickly.

Hmm, the leader was right, he better thought about how to use it.

While the man let his imagination run wild, the leader was looking into the distance. He had already killed everyone from Yi Wa Organization before it was dawn. But there were more soldiers of Hai Family here.

It would be impossible for them to kill everyone.

They had limited stamina and strength.

\'I better rest here until there are reinforcement before departing.\' He lowered his eyes and looked at the bamboo stick that Master Jiu gave to him back then. There was nothing exactly remarkable about it, but he still felt that he wanted to keep this bamboo stick.

After all, he had never met with any of the higher ranked assassins before.

…

Prince Yang Lu\'s Side

Bang!

Sensing the sudden light, Prince Yang Lu\'s eyes narrowed slightly. He watched as Hai Fa Xia walked into the room with several soldiers following him on his back. There was no emotion within his dark pupil.

"Your Highness, get back." The guard straightened his position. Even though it hurt to move, he couldn\'t possibly let anyone came near Prince Yang Lu and harmed the young prince.

"Do you really think that you can stop me?" Hai Fa Xia stopped not far from them with the soldier in front of him put his sword beside Prince Yang Lu\'s guard\'s neck. With the poison was still in his bloodstream, it was hard for them to move.

"What do you want?" Prince Yang Lu asked straightforwardly. He was still holding back the pain from the poison, yet his expression remained impassive as if he didn\'t feel anything.

Beside him, Mu Fei Xin was holding onto his arm tightly. She looked at Hai Fa Xia with wariness as she was worried that he would do something to Prince Yang Lu with the way he did things.

Kyaaa!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaa!"

The sound and cries of children came from the front.

Prince Yang Lu furrowed his eyebrows as he recalled that there were indeed a lot of officials who brought their children when they paid a visit to this place. As for their wives or concubines, they belonged to Hai Family and must have betrayed their family for the Hai Family.

How laughable.

"The children are all brought here." Hai Fa Xia looked at Prince Yang Lu. "There are also a lot of soldiers ready on the wall to face against the force that are coming. Do you really think that it\'s possible for you to survive in this situation without changing side, Your Highness?"

"What you want, is nothing more than a puppet, isn\'t it?" Prince Yang Lu was calm.

The two men were looking at each other with eyes that reflected nothing in their heart. it was as if everything that they wanted to say was already understood by the other party without even any word to say.

"My Aunt told you?"

"No."

There was no way Empress Dowager Hai would bluntly say to her son that she wanted to use him as a puppet. Prince Yang Lu knew better than anyone what it meant when his mother kept on asking for him to follow her order.

When he saw her with that kind of heated expression and gaze, Prince Yang Lu had long realized that his mother only wanted him to be his puppet. However, she was also the very person who protected him with all of her heart.

It was because of that Prince Yang Lu didn\'t mind if his mother used him.

But now that his mother had died and the Hai Family was still going on and on to use him like that, he didn\'t want to. How could he possibly let them make use of him?

"What\'s the difference with me using you and her using you?" Hai Fa Xia laughed. "It\'s all for Hai Family."

Hai Family.

The way these people talked about Hai Family was as if it was a great kingdom or something that was worth protecting. Prince Yang Lu didn\'t understand why he had this kind of feeling, but he didn\'t like it.

They sounded as if they were worshiping the entire family and thus, they wanted to do everything they could so that the family could thrive.

"Master." A servant walked in from outside.

"What is it?"

"There are two children missing."

"Who?" Hai Fa Xia furrowed his eyebrows.

"First Young Master Nan and Second Young Master Feng."

Nan? Feng?

Prince Yang Lu could faintly recall that when his older brother barged into his palace back then, there was a young boy who followed Long Qian Xing. At that time, he didn\'t pay close attention to him, but later on, he heard that Great General Nan participated in the battle.

There was no reason for them to bring a little kid along.

Unless he had a special identity.

First Young Master Nan, Nan Luo, the grandson of Great General Nan.

\'So it\'s really him.\'

The corner of Prince Yang Lu\'s lips curled up ever so slightly. He had thought about his older brother\'s ability to gather people and it was only now realized why he couldn\'t be compared to him.

In the very first place, those who supported his older brother were the top of the cream.

And they were also the future of Fei Yang Kingdom.

\'I lost even before doing anything.\'

Prince Yang Lu lowered his gaze and wanted to laugh at his weak self. Even though his mother had matched him with Mu Family that had great influence, it still lost compared to that half-brother of his.

"First Young Master Nan and Second Young Master Feng?" Hai Fa Xia furrowed his eyebrows. He then looked at the group of children. "How about the First Young Miss Nan?"

"She\'s here, Master."

"Keep her in a separate location." Hai Fa Xia smirked. "She\'ll be of a great use against Great General Nan."
