Chapter 769: Doing the Right Thing, But Still Deserving Death! [Extra Chapter for the Guest Alliance Leader!]

How did Fang Tu know?

How did he find the Murong Family so easily?

This was Murong Qingyu's greatest perplexity.

The Murong Clan had kept this matter extremely secret, as even one extra person knowing about it meant an increased risk of the clan's extinction. Even within the Murong Family, the number of people who knew was absolutely no more than a handful.

Yet Fang Tu had found them immediately?

Even if there was a traitor within the clan, it shouldn't have been this fast, right?

"I have my ways."

Fang Che calmly asked, "I'm only asking you, why did the Murong Clan do this?"

Murong Qingyu sneered, "Why did we do this? Do we need a reason for that? Fang Tu, have you forgotten about the people you killed from my family?"

"Just because of that matter?"

"Of course!"

Murong Qingyu stiffened his neck and glared at Fang Che, "What do you mean by 'just because of that matter'? Fang Tu, do you think it was a trivial matter? You made us watch as our own family members were beheaded! Don't you remember?"

"That was a child we raised with all our efforts since he was small, our own flesh and blood! As he was dying, he was still holding onto me, crying, saying he didn't want to die, that he was willing to repent. But did you give him a chance?"

"With just one stroke of your blade, you turned decades of our hard work into nothingness, turning a promising young man into a cold corpse!"

"Do you understand that feeling? He was just playing with some lowly commoners! Commoners! Do you understand? Fang Tu, you slaughtered nobles for the sake of commoners! What are you? Shouldn't you be avenged?"

"So, we want you to watch, losing the woman you love the most! This is called an eye for an eye!"

Murong Qingyu burst into maniacal laughter.

He was like a madman.

He could have denied it, or even lied about it. But seeing that his family was completely wiped out and that his own people were already doomed, Murong Qingyu gave up on those efforts.

He only wanted to curse Fang Tu mercilessly before his death.

With his family dead, what was there to fear?

What was there to worry about?

Why bother denying it? What use was there in denial? What could it preserve?

In this state of mind, Murong Qingyu was almost insane.

Fang Che took a deep breath and said calmly, "Murong Qingyu, I ask you, according to the laws of the Guardian Continent, did your grandson commit a crime?"

"Yes, so what?"

Murong Qingyu readily admitted.

"Did the crime he committed deserve death?"

"Yes, but there could have been leniency!"

"As the one who decides life and death, should I have killed him?"

"Yes, but there's also human sentiment outside of the law. Do you only consider the law and ignore human feelings?"

Murong Qingyu spoke.

"But you also believe that he committed a crime and deserved death, and you killing him was also justified, right?"

"Right!"

"Then why did you hire an assassin? Why did you choose to strike at such a critical moment when I returned?" Fang Che was a little confused.

Murong Qingyu coldly laughed, "You have your ways, and I have my vengeance! You killing him was justified, and my revenge is also justified! What's there to say? So what if he did wrong? What about our Murong Clan's reputation? What about the merits of our meritorious clan? You don't care about any of that? So, since you killed him, you deserve to die!"

"Fang Tu, does revenge need a reason?"

"The law is the law, but revenge is revenge."

"Fang Tu, let me tell you this. Even if you were still the Guardian's team leader, do you think everything you did was correct and right?"

"Is it not?"

"Yes, it's correct, but so what?"

Murong Qingyu said, "Do you know how many Guardian families in this world want to kill you? Do you think that just because you believe you're right, no one will seek revenge on you? Why should they not?"

"I clearly tell you, in this world, the number of people who want to kill you, Fang Tu, among the Guardians, is far greater than in the Only Righteous Sect!"

Murong Qingyu cackled maniacally, "Now, it's even simpler, Fang Tu. Our Murong Clan seeks revenge, but instead, you exterminate us. There's nothing more to say. But I'll wait for you in the underworld, waiting for the day your identity is exposed, and your reputation is ruined! Or perhaps, I'll wait for the day you're killed by someone else before your identity is exposed!"

"On that day, my Murong Clan will still wait at the crossroads to take revenge on you once more!"

He laughed with satisfaction, "Since we've been brought here, we have no hope of escaping. With such hatred between us, it's you or me, so let's fight."

Fang Che calmly nodded and said, "If that's the case, I have nothing more to say. However, before the Murong Clan Leader departs, can you tell me who the person you hired was?"

"In your dreams!"

Murong Qingyu spat, his face twisted in a grimace, "You want to know? In your next life, maybe!"

Fang Che calmly said, "That person's cultivation is very high. Don't you want to see me find him and take revenge, only to be killed by him instead? Anyway, you're all going to die now, so why not give me a heads-up before you die?"

Murong Qingyu suddenly froze.

These words suddenly reminded him.

Yes, with Fang Tu's cultivation, finding those people would be easy. Besides, since he was going to die, why bother protecting them?

Let them fight to the death with Fang Tu.

"You're right!"

Meng Huo Qingyu spoke with venom, "I hired the Faceless Tower, Fang Tu. Go and take revenge. I'll wait for you to be killed by them, or for you to kill them!"

"I'm not lying," Fang Che said, his eyes fixed.

"Do you think I need to lie to you now?" Meng Huo Qingyu asked with a sinister smile.

"That's good. Thank you for the Murong Clan Head's honesty before death."

Fang Che spoke calmly, "Everyone, let's go."

With a swish, he drew his saber.

"Everyone, wait for me in the underground, if there really is an underground!"

Meng Huo Qingyu screamed hysterically, "Fang Tu! Don't think that just because you're right, no one will kill you! There will be, there will be..."

He didn't finish his sentence.

The voice was cut off.

The saber gleamed, and one slash after another fell mercilessly!

Fang Che showed no mercy, and all fifteen people died under his saber without exception.

The killing was over.

But Fang Che sat in a chair, facing the mess of corpses, his expression heavy.

Today, he truly understood this kind of person.

That is... they know you're right, but they still want to take revenge on you.

They will spare no effort, seeking every opportunity, and it's the kind of opportunity that makes you suffer the most. They take revenge on you! They don't even deny their own crimes.

They also know that you are acting within the law.

They know that their people deserve to die, but they still seek revenge. Before taking revenge, they might even cooperate with you in any task!

Fang Che sat in the chair, deep in thought for half a day.

He still felt confused.

The matter was clear, and the revenge was taken.

But he felt a bit muddled.

How could there be such people in this world?

As for the Murong Clan's previous misdeeds, past blood debts, and so on... Fang Che didn't ask about any of it.

This trip had a very simple purpose!

To take revenge for Zhao Ying'er and Ye Meng, and for himself.

Whether the Murong Clan had committed countless evil deeds in the past, or were filled with wickedness, or had saved countless lives... none of it mattered to Fang Che.

Kill without mercy!

A figure flashed by.

Sun Wutian appeared, dressed in a gray robe, looking like an ordinary old farmer.

He looked at Fang Che and asked, "What's the matter? Can't figure it out?"

"Yes, Master, I can't understand it," Fang Che replied.

"The Murong Clan is a Guardian family, and I'm a Life and Death Patrol. According to my duties, I didn't do anything wrong, and even they admit I'm not at fault. But they still take such extreme revenge. Why? It's unreasonable!"

"Hehe... reasonable?"

Sun Wutian hunched over, his hollow laughter echoing, "This question of yours is one I've asked myself for thousands of years. When I was a righteous hero, what did I do wrong? When my family followed the rules, living honestly and treating others kindly, what did they do wrong? No one in the world dares to say we're wrong, not even Yan Nan and Bi Changhong. But our family was exterminated. Is that reasonable?"

Fang Che was speechless.

"You think it's unreasonable because you're young," Sun Wutian said.

"In reality, so-called unreasonable things happen every day. You treat your friends with utmost sincerity, but they betray you. You save someone in need, but they kill you in return. You treat a woman with utmost kindness, but she steals your money and runs off with another man. Is that reasonable?"

"Why should you care about what's reasonable or not?"

"What is reason?"

"Our ancestors established rules, judged good and evil, and distinguished right from wrong. It became a basic rule of the world, but every day, people break this rule. That's what you call unreasonable, and that's how the world is."

"You need to learn to distinguish one thing."

Sun Wutian muttered, "Don't worry about whether something is reasonable or not, or whether the world is normal or not. Just do your own thing. One day, when you become powerful enough, everyone in front of you must be reasonable!"

Sun Wutian pointed at Meng Huo Qingyu and the others, saying, "The reason you encountered this is because you're not strong enough. If it was Xue Fu Xiao who killed their family as the Life and Death Patrol, would they dare to take revenge? Would all these things you consider unreasonable now happen? No, they wouldn't!"

"In this world, it's always been the strong oppressing the weak! What is reason, anyway?"

"When you're weak, no one will discuss reason or fairness with you. When you're strong, no one dares to be unreasonable in front of you!"

"That's what's reasonable."

"Whether you rise in the Guardians or climb the ranks in the sect, this rule applies. If you're powerful, being reasonable is a sign of grace. If you're not, then everything you do is considered reasonable, even if it's not."

"It's that simple!"
