Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 511: Xiao jun's schemes

"Traitor?" Elder Fu and the other two elders looked at each other in confusion before they looked at Senja with wrinkled eyebrows. "That is a heavy accusation." Elder Fu stated strictly.

"Who do you mean?" Elder Zhong chimmed in, he assessed people around him reaction with perplexed expression.

Their little commotion caught many eyes attention, even though they did not really hear what the topic of their ruckus due to the distance between them, but from the tense that written all over their faces, those soldiers knew there was something important that was going on between their higher up.

"Let's talk about this somewhere less crowded." Elder Chen gestured all of them to come back inside the tent. Wisely he cut the topic off before it getting big and attracted the unnecessary attention.

Senja was dumbfounded and rooted on the place, didn't understand why Xiao Jun acted this way. Amidst her confusion, Xiao Tianyao approached her and nudged her shoulder while looking at the retreating elders and Xiao Jun who had walked toward the tent direction.

"What happened with your brother!?" Senja burst in anger when she realized the elders and Xiao Jun had gone inside the tent. "Did he lose his mind?"

"Let's go inside first." Xiao Tianyao didn't heed Senja complain while ushered the incensed girl inside the tent.

He knew his brother very well, no matter how dire the situation he wouldn't take a measure step like that. Foolishly exposed the important information that they had, especially in the critical situation like they were in now, and for Xiao Jun to take that extreme way, he must have something in his mind. All they needed to do was to figure it out what his scheme.

However, the girl beside him was too aggravated to realize it, not to mention she lost her ability, hence it was hard for her to understand Xiao Jun. Both of them didn't quite close with each other after all.

Thankfully, Senja was cooperative enough to not spill unnecessary words and obediently walked inside the tent with the attitude as standoffish as ever. She glared at Xiao Jun direction coldly right after they entered the tent.

"Now, tell us. Where did the information about the traitor come from?" Elder Chen queried, his small balck eyes enlarged, sharply looked at Xiao Jun and Senja back and forth, demanding an explanation.

It was silent that followed Elder Chen's question as Senja refused to answer and Xiao Jun didn't provide another explanation after his bold words.

"Senja's achievement four years ago was remarkable, I think she will not talk without evident. She must have thought about this thoroughly. She will not spill nonsense word."

Elder Zhong walked toward Senja direction while saying those judicious words and standing beside her with righteous manner, if she didn't know his true color she would have fallen for his dirty trick as he appeared like someone who spoke up for her. However, his hypocritical act only disgusted Senja at this moment.

In spite of what she felt, she was trying to keep calm, assessing the situation and looking a small hint that could help her to decipher Xiao Jun's action. Doing those things were a challenge for Senja's impatient nature, she felt as if someone had shoved hot coals to her throat, down to her stomach.

"So, Senja what will you say?" Elder Chen asked her again. "For your merit in the past, I am willing to listen." With this gestured he was telling her that if it wasn't for something that had the other Senja done which awed every people, he wouldn't let her spewing a confrontational word such as traitor in the heat situation like this, let alone hearing her explanation.

In the other hand, Senja glared at Xiao Jun who had not given much reaction.

"She said, Elder Fu is the traitor." Xiao Jun said emotionlessly.

Senja was amazed and not only her, the three elders was shocked with Xiao Jun statement and Senja accusation, especially the accused person, Elder Fu, he smashed his on the table.

"Outrageous!" He roared with anger. Elder Fu blade- like eyes fixated at Senja who was also shocked with Xiao Jun's word. "I don't know how do you come up with this idea, but it only show how immature you are!" His shoulder shuddered with indignation.

Elder Chen stood rigidly, his stance and expression didn't show what his opinion about this as he remained quiet, in the other hand, Elder Zhong was trying to act as a wise elder in this kind of situation.

"Senja, the word 'traitor' it is not some random word that you could use casually, no matter what you had done in the past, the weight of this word is too heavy, lest someone started to misunderstanding your word, do you have any evidence to prove your accusation?"

"Albeit you are Elder Dam's granddaughter, I couldn't accept this accusation. You should come up with better explanation before you point your finger to someone else." Elder Chen who had been quite, finally talk sternly.

In a matter of minutes the dissatisfaction from all the elders were directed at Senja.

The girl stood there with cold expression and aloofness while she scrutinized Xiao Jun's indifferent expression.

"Don't talk as you wish." Xiao Jun spoke icily. "We don't have much time to be wasted." With the last word, Xiao Jun's eyes flickered, there was something in them that conveyed different meaning.

Senja maybe had lost her ability, but it didn't mean the true meaning behind Xiao Jun's words just past her ear without her knowing it. She have been living with tricks and schemes above her head for twenty years and living in this world has honed her senses and fed the devil inside of her.

Thus, there was no way that Senja didn't understand Xiao Jun's true intention however this method would put false judgment upon her.

**Damn Xiao Jun!** She grumbled to herself. There was another way to solve this problem, but he decided this matter by his own.

In the other hand, seemingly Xiao Tianyao had realized his brother intention and hardly agreed with the method that he used as well, he crossed his arms impatiently, but remained silent as he watch the three elders scolded Senja.

"I think this is just misunderstanding." Elder Zhong talked rightfully and patted Senja's head. "Let's end this matter here."

Elder Fu scoffed, "You are not like this the last time I saw you, maybe your amnesia finally have had an effect on you until you forgot your manner."

Senja closed her eyes, begrudgingly curse Xiao Jun thousands time in her mind. His previous words were very clear.

In rough understanding, his true meaning was; 'Don't talk as you wish' meant: shut up. 'We don't have much time to be wasted; meant: let's provoke the culprit so he would show up faster.

Senja would be having hard time to decipher the last one if she didn't familiar with Xiao Tianyao's method, both brothers was really annoying with the way they communicating their plan.

In spite she finally knew what Xiao Jun tried to imply, but she still couldn't accept it. Xiao Jun has used her as a decoy!

**Well, if he wanted to make things difficult for me, the difficult situation that he would get.** Senja smirked before she said boldly.
