The accusation of killing one's uncle and father is indeed too grave.
Let's not even mention that there's currently no evidence of the Wang Family betraying the Human Race. Even if the proof is irrefutable, given Wang Junze's status, would he dare to do this?
No matter what you say, you have nothing to do with the Wang Family anymore. There's no need to determine if the Wang Family is heinous. The relationship of blood relatives is obvious. If you dare to strike, you will become a cold-blooded, heartless beast in everyone's eyes. Who would dare to trust you? Who would dare to stand with you?!
But if you don't dare to act, what face do you have to lead the Northern Domain Judgment Department? What right do you have to capture other traitors?
It's nothing more than the pot calling the kettle black.
One could say, no matter how Wang Junze chooses, his reputation in the Northern Domain will be ruined!
Moreover, the news has already spread. Neither Su Yuwei nor Luo Qingxuan can help shield Wang Junze anymore. After all, if all these people died... would others prefer to believe the sensational story of Wang Junze killing his uncle and father, or believe that Luo Qingxuan or Su Yuwei killed to silence them?
Yet, if all of them aren't killed, then even if Luo Qingxuan kills Wang Cheng and Wang Zhao, as soon as Wang Junze joins the Profound Moon Sword Sect, people will still think Wang Junze sacrificed his family for himself, merely using Luo Qingxuan's hand.
Jing Yuan had calculated everything, leaving no way out.
And the only chance to break the stalemate... seems to rest on Wang Xin.
Apart from Wang Junze, only she can resolve all this. However, the price is that she would take on all the infamy for Wang Junze.
"Heh!"
With a light laugh, Wang Xin flipped her wrist, and a blade as thin as a cicada's wing instantly appeared in her palm, her face revealing a wicked smile: "My brother doesn't dare, but... I dare!"
Taking a step forward, Wang Xin exuded a terrifying killing intent, saying with a smile, "I finally joined the Judgment Department. At this time... whoever holds me back, I will kill them!"
"Wang Xin, are you mad?"
Upon hearing Wang Xin's words, fear instantly flashed in Wang Zhao's eyes, and he urgently reprimanded.
He was too familiar with Wang Xin!
Putting everything else aside, Wang Junze might not be able to harden his heart, but Wang Xin certainly could. Just from her returning to the Wang Family with Wang Xin's head back then, it was clear that for Wang Junze, she truly could do anything.
"Mad? This isn't madness!" Wang Xin said nonchalantly, her gaze falling on Wang Zhao: "Second Uncle, didn't I tell you long ago... I'm just this malicious, so what?"
"Is whatever Jing Yuan says true?"
Suddenly, Wang Cheng spoke coldly: "What if no one betrayed the Human Race at all? Without any evidence, just because of his words, you're going to kill? Commandery Princess, Saintess... Acting in this way, who can be convinced?"
These words immediately caused Su Yuwei and Luo Qingxuan to frown slightly.
Is there such a possibility? Of course there is!
But at this time, should they gamble on whether they can hold their ground and refuse to betray the Human Race until death?
"Enough!"
Not waiting for others to speak, Wang Junze grabbed Wang Xin, who was about to make a move, and shook his head slightly.
At this point, Wang Junze naturally understood why Su Yuwei suddenly agreed to let him join the Profound Moon Sword Sect before, and he understood what it meant for Wang Xin to take action now.
This was a trap set by Jing Yuan for himself. How could he let his sister take on the blame for him?
Moreover, even if nothing else was considered, his sister had feelings for their father. Although he resented his father's ruthlessness back then, he couldn't truly act to kill him, much less let Wang Xin do all this.
Truly doing so would result in Xin'er being in pain for the rest of her life.
Looking up, Wang Junze gazed at everyone and slowly spoke, "Why do you all think that killing is necessary to resolve this?"
"Why are you going along with Jing Yuan's rhythm? Just because of his words, these little actions?"
"No matter the Wang Family, regardless of my relationship with the Wang Family... Everyone here once fought from the outermost part of the ruin to this place with me. Along the way, who hasn't fought with the Deserters?" Shaking his head, Wang Junze continued, "Among you, some have fought alongside me, some have even helped me more than once."
"Don't say that what Jing Yuan said might not be true, even if it is... Just relying on these past affections, shouldn't I give you all a chance to turn back?"
This speech immediately left everyone dumbfounded, and the look in their eyes towards Wang Junze conveyed an indescribable emotion.
"Jing Yuan's calculations are none other than concerning people's hearts."
Wang Junze calmly continued, "Some fear death, some can't trust anyone, Xin'er and the Saintess worry about my future, the Commandery Princess worries about Jubei City's safety... Everyone's concerns have been accounted for by him, making it seem like a dead-end."
"But... how could it be so complicated!"
"If someone truly betrayed the Human Race, then there's still a chance to turn back now. As long as you speak up, I believe, whether it's the Commandery Princess or the Saintess, they can forgive you for the mistakes made under Jing Yuan's threat." Wang Junze's gaze swept over everyone, continuing, "If not, then... I still choose to believe in you all."
"Unless you truly committed acts of betrayal against the Human Race, I will not draw my sword against you. This is my promise to you!"
Buzz!
In an instant, a feeling of being moved arose in everyone's hearts, as if there was a flame in their chests, stirring their blood!
Trust!
These two words seem simple, but who can achieve it effortlessly?
"You're betting! What if you're wrong? What if someone among them really betrayed the Human Race and caused chaos?"
Coldly interrupting Wang Junze's words, Su Yuwei asked in a deep voice.
"Then I'll act when they truly rebel!" Wang Junze responded with a carefree smile, saying softly, "As Saintess Luo would say, if the Deserters attack, I kill the Deserters. If traitors cause chaos, I kill the traitors. The three-foot sword in my hand is the principle!"
"By that time, do you know how many people will die?" Su Yuwei questioned again, "If Jubei City really suffers because of this... it would be a great disaster. Can you bear this cost?"
