Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1880 Are You Sure?

Chapter 1880  Are You Sure?

Shangguan Xiao couldn't refute this.

Even if he wanted to, his rationality was telling him that whatever he said, it would be useless. What would happen in the future was something that both of them knew very well and couldn't avoid.

In the end, he sighed deeply. "Are you sure about this?" Shangguan Xiao asked again.

He might not be very powerful, but if he muddled in this muddy water, it was still possible for him to figure out a way to help Shangguan Yu. But if he did this, he would also lose his entire career and everything he had worked so hard for many years.

"Yes." Shangguan Yu glanced at Shangguan Xiao. "I won't be executed, but I definitely can't stay."

Shangguan Xiao arched his eyebrows.

From Shangguan Yu's words, he could guess that this cousin of his must have prepared something on his own. Being able to scheme and made his way this far, Shangguan Yu should have paid a lot along the way. Shangguan Xiao didn't know very clearly what Shangguan Yu actually experienced in the past.

Because what Shangguan Yu told him was only the summary.

"No matter what, thank you." Shangguan Xiao looked in the direction of his older brother's room. "Even if he's not here, I'm sure he wants to say the same. He just can't control his emotions well at times."

"It's fine."

Shangguan Yu did everything without telling anyone and it was normal for Shangguan Xian to be angry. Being so emotionally challenged for several days and still have to bear the pressure from Shi Long Kingdom… it was not easy for Shangguan Xian.

The 31-year-old man should have been in his vigorous years.*

But he was being pressured from all sides because of various reasons.

When he faced Shangguan Xian, Shangguan Yu was already prepared to be beaten up. Being threatened and not being beaten up was already good enough for him.

Shangguan Xiao nodded.

"Why did you come here? It's not just to tell us about this, right?"

"I have to return to the Capital City and can't stay with you." Shangguan Yu took out a token from his inner robe. He held the token in his hand and played with it for a few moments.

When he was young, his father told him that this is the token of the head of Shangguan Family. It was something that Shangguan Yu yearned to have for a long time.

But along the way, he experienced despairs, bitterness, indifference, coldness, and finally numbness. This token seemed to have only reminded him of his bloody and cruel path that he took in order to be able to get this seat.

His hands had long been stained with blood.

If someone asked him whether he regret it or not, Shangguan Yu will say that he didn't regret it.

He didn't regret what he had done at all. "I'll hand this over to you." Shangguan Yu handed the token to Shangguan Xiao.

Shangguan Xiao held the token in surprise. He looked at Shangguan Yu in disbelief. Unlike him and his older brother who were not interested in the position as the head of the family, Shangguan Yu seemed to be chasing after this token for a long period of time. It was something that Shangguan Yu wanted to have the most, so Shangguan Xiao never expressed any interest in it.

But now, Shangguan Yu handed the token to him.

He had to admit that the current Shangguan Yu seemed to overthrow all the thoughts he had about the other party. "Are you sure?"

"I can't let Shangguan Family end with me." Shangguan Yu laughed in a low voice. "You're still young and will get married in the future. Or if you don't have any children, you can hand it to your nephew."

"I still want to get married, idiot." Shangguan Xiao shook his head speechlessly. Please, he was only 28 years old, so he will naturally find a partner for himself in the future. Without his parents urging him, Shangguan Xiao seemed to have slowly forgotten the matter of his own marriage.

Talking about this with Shangguan Yu, he was reminded that he was not that young anymore.

He should think about settling down soon. "Also, you're younger than me. Don't speak as if you're already an old man." Shangguan Xiao rolled his eyes.

Shangguan Yu smiled faintly. He might be younger than Shangguan Xiao, but his experience over the years was carved into his bones. This made his temperament, which should have suited youngsters better to turn into the way he is right now. Unlike these hot blooded youngsters who could still think and yell about their future.

He knew very well that he had reached the dead end.

Even if he could still escape and find a way for himself with other identities, he would only live a life of running away for his entire life.

Was that something he wanted?

No.

He's a proud and arrogant person. Since he had decided to walk on this path, then he will walk until the very end with his head held high. What would happen was simply the result of his decision. So he will face it proudly and accepted whatever was thrown to him. He had prepared for everything.

What left was the response of the people around him. Shangguan Xiao saw Shangguan Yu's expression and sighed. He knew that no matter what words he said, it would not affect the decision Shangguan Yu had made. Clenching the token in his hand, he solemnly promised. "Don't worry, I won't let Shangguan Family end. We will thrive again in the future."

What happened in the future remained unknown.

Anything could happen.

Both of them knew that it wouldn't be easy for the already broken Shangguan Family to rise again. But the promise alone was enough for Shangguan Yu.

At the very least, he knew that his cousin wouldn't let Shangguan Family end without fighting.

"Good." Shangguan Yu smiled.
