The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time

Chapter 2: Ren Yuan

Drip

Drip

In a pale but beautiful handsome face of a tall figure, crimson blood continues to drop nonstop at those overly pale thin lip staining the white snow robe further, his entire body shuddering from pain but despite it all, those sapphire eyes glint with coldness and ruthlessness as those beautiful hands swang horizontally as it heartlessly slash the people that were currently gather in another magnificent hall, which is where the royal official courts discussion take place at.

"W-What are you doing Great Advisor Cheng!?"

"Stop what you are doing right now!"

"H-Help someone stops this madman!"

"Save me! I don't want to die!"

"Sha Cheng, you have gone crazy! Imperial Guards! Stop and Kill this traitorous bastard right this instant!"

With a gentle smile on Shao Cheng face, he continues to slaughter the people left and right, the scream of pain and fear is something that he could ignore so easily because his heart has long been numb from taking people life, unlike in the past, although he was also cold and ruthless in the previous life he has as he was still a person that has lived in a world called Earth and has never really killed anyone, but in this world, where life can be easily taken away by the people who have much power and authority, Shao Cheng has changed himself in order to survive, especially when he has something he has treasure and wish to protect at all-cause which is really ironic as he thinks about it now, causing a sigh of disappointment to be let out.

"You! Why are you doing this? Shao Cheng!"

Hearing an older man spoke those words in confusion but filled with righteousness Shao Cheng couldn't help but glance at the person who has spoken, before bypassing him a few seconds later as he once again targeted another person as he took the person life.

This group of Official Royal Court was something he has secretly called forth with his own power along with the trust of the current Emperor that he supposedly has.

At the start, Shao Cheng was planning to either use, threaten and protect them either way since he figures out that the people who have been secretly planning to rebel and overthrow the current Emperor was about to make their move, but since his current situation seemed to have greatly changed from what he has planned to do, slightly changing it to entirely different way seemed to be also a good thing as he gazes at the numerous corrupted official that he has left out in order to keep the power in the royal court stable and balance, and eradicating this weeds and bugs out was now a great deed as he thinks deeply about it.

The big net that Shao Cheng has placed in order to finally take down the excellent and talented leader that is leading the secret rebellion once and for all is now something that he doesn't really need to use anymore toward his supposedly greatest enemy.

And here, Shao Cheng has planned to threatened these royal court officials to behave more while secretly control their actions to a minimum degree since he was unable to definitely take their life off since it was something that will give trouble and difficulty to Chang Pei, but right now he doesn't need to restrain himself anymore.

At this instant, for the greatest rebel leader that will surely become the new monarch in the Chang Empire that has surprisingly made action today, which was something Shao Cheng has guess to happen the following days, let the action that he is currently doing be the little gift that he can offer.

After all, removing this rotten and corrupted officials as he completely weed out all the roots of trouble for his future reign is something that person will definitely accept even if it's from his most loathsome enemy right?

The useful, truly loyal and worried for the common people in the royal courts will be left out to be used at the next Monarch after the rebellion is over.

Ah, to think that Shao Cheng was doing this toward that hateful person that he has always been against with, after all, that person existence and ambition was always a danger toward his only two family but now, rather than the ungrateful younger brother and sister of his, Shao Cheng prefer for that man to be the one sitting in the throne of this Empire at this moment on.

He hates to admit it but there is also a reason why that person has led a rebel, despite what he was doing to make the Empire stronger, the common people have still suffered from the previous and present Emperor reign since they are really incompetent beyond fault.

And although Shao Cheng has been doing his job and responsibility to the best of his ability at the start of wanting to be helpful to his younger brother and sister, however, Shao Cheng has also seriously done his job with pride and has grown to love the Empire that he was currently living at.

Despite the hardship and suffering he experience, Shao Cheng has grown of wanting the common people to live an easier life, after all, he was also once a normal person who has his fair share of suffering and hardship in his previous life.

Ah, he was really a hypocrite though, despite wanting the common people to live a better life, knowing that the fault lies at the incompetent monarch current reign, he has never made a move against it, after all, his selfishness won first thing among the other people difficulties and struggle.

With a bit of a sarcastic smile, Shao Cheng has finally finished cleaning up the corrupted royal official courts while letting out a heavy breath, soon his tall figure that is cover in blood has walked away from the asura like hell scene in the majestic hall that has just experienced a bloody and ruthless slaughter.

"... Shao Chengyou..."

Sapphire eyes glance at the person who has hesitantly spoken while a gentle smile still plastered on his beautiful face but those eyes no longer contain any warmth within it, before turning around as he continues to walk out and arriving at the comfortable and soft chair that one of the hidden dark guards that have prepared for him outside the magnificent hall before finally taking a sit.

Although as he heard the following footstep behind him, Shao Cheng remember that this person was the same age as him and an acquaintance of the greatest enemies of his, though former now, and the real reason why he has never move against this man was the fact that he was really reliable and isn't a hidden spy by his enemies.

Their relationship was complicated, it was a friend and enemies at the same time.

Although once in a while, this person has been helping that man, but Shao Cheng has deemed that this man is far more useful to keep in the corrupted Royal Courts than removing it, especially when he really does his work in a brilliantly.

"Ah, Liang Shi, right now, a great change is coming you are so lucky you will get to see the Chang Empire change into a much more magnificent and prosperous era starting today."

As a person who has worked for this Empire, that is one of his deepest regrets since he really wants the once strong but now weakened Empire to return the way it was in the past when it was still prosperous and feared by the neighboring Empires.

Liang Shi with a tall body dress in royal official robe along with a scholarly aura who has calmly followed out at the asura like scene couldn't help but let out a deep sigh of regret after seeing as the man who was basking in the sun constantly letting out blood from his thin lip, seemingly knowing about what happened after pondering about his current crazy actions today, especially when he can hear the ongoing fight happening in the far distance.

But Liang Shi was unable to stop himself as he gazes at the pale face of the man that still look outstandingly beautiful despite his ages, while the always dazzling and bright, feared and respected by everyone as they become awe with his talent and abilities was now currently dying.

Although, even in death, a smile still remains on his beautiful handsome face while there is never a single fear reflected on those cold sapphire eyes at the idea of his coming death.

"Ah Our Magnificient Chang Empire will once more rise again... I really shouldn't have been stubborn and blind from the start right?"

Liang Shi remains silent, while those remaining royal officials that have been spared couldn't help but gaze at the beautiful man with complicated gaze before sighing in the end as they lower their heads, waiting for everything to finish because at this moment everyone knew that this Empire will change.

Seconds, minutes and hours pass by before orderly footsteps began to walk toward their directions.

Soon, in Shao Cheng's vision, an excellent enchanting man wearing a luxurious flaming crimson color robe with silver snow embroidered on it calmly and leisurely walk toward them.

He couldn't help but sigh, this man is always so flashy and bright but despite it all, those noble and majestic aura around him couldn't stop the people to greatly respect him at the bottom of their heart.

This man can really become a wise and enlightened Monarch, even though his personality is something to be disliked and dissatisfied with, nonetheless, everything about him is flawlessly perfect.

This is the man that he has been fighting against from all these years, though now that he thought deeply about it, he wonders why he was able to contend with him, it is not that Shao Cheng doubts his abilities and skills but this man is really so talented that made people want to beat him to death.

However, Shao Cheng couldn't help but gaze at the other man that was walking by his side the entire time.

".... T-third B-Brother Cheng"

Hearing the painful, both hate and love at the man's voice, especially the familiar title spoken from his mouth, Shao Cheng suddenly felt deep remorse and regret, his heart twisting in pain.

A silly younger brother, even after all that I have done, why is there still some familial love remaining in your eyes?

Shouldn't you be filled with endless hate and disgust toward me? After all, I have never done anything to our family and have even watched it disappear and broken apart without feeling any single remorse and regret in the past.

However, what caught his attention back is how the enchanting man seemed to has stopped walking after finally seeing the silent remaining royal official along with his figures basking in the sun.

So with a smile, still fake as always, grace his beautiful face, Shao Cheng met the peach blossom grey eyes of his enemy of a lifetime.

"Hey there Ren Yuan this time I lost and you won."
