World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others

Chapter 301: Who says loyalty must be unquestioning and obedient

```

Of course, survival comes first.

This group of assassins has been chasing the princess for five or six days, all through desolate wilderness, without a soul in sight along the way.

In other words.

It would take at least five or six days to get out of the forest.

Pan-Universal Entertainment changed the rules, with over two thousand out of three thousand people surviving, doubling the original number of survivors.

Moreover, he had set a bad precedent, making everyone else likely to act recklessly...

In five or six days, who knows what kind of chaos over two thousand warriors on the Alien Star Battlefield might stir up!

And his two keywords.

It was as if he had let others run ahead for five or six days.

In five or six days, with his efficiency, he could have already built a significant force...

Who knows what the outside world will be like when they get out?

Still going to the Qinglan Sword Sect?

To seek death there?

Damn it!

This is a hellish start!

...

Watching the silent Du Ge, Luo Shuang took out a pill and put it in her mouth, sighing, "I was indeed too naive. Mr. He, I know that going to the Qinglan Sword Sect is a slim hope, but it's my only hope."

She paused and sighed, "If only I were a man."

"A man?" Du Ge snapped out of his scattered thoughts, looked at Luo Shuang, and laughed, "When heaven and earth first opened, yin and yang were divided. Who says men are stronger than women? Who says women can't be emperors? Your father and brothers were men, and didn't Qingwu Kingdom still fall?"

"..." Luo Shuang frowned, "You... you are not allowed to insult my father."

"Fourth Princess, don't blame me for speaking bluntly." Du Ge shook his head and said, "Good medicine tastes bitter but cures the disease, honest advice is unpleasant but beneficial. I know how to speak pleasingly, but does that help? Can it help the princess seek revenge or restore the kingdom?"

"..." Luo Shuang was stunned, looking at Du Ge in shock, as if she didn't expect an assassin to say such things.

"Fourth Princess, since I have pledged my loyalty to you, I will assist you wholeheartedly." Du Ge looked at Luo Shuang seriously and said, "In my opinion, the princess still has a long way to go.

For example, just now, although the princess didn't believe my words, she concealed her killing intent to survive, pretending to believe me. Do you really think I couldn't see through it? It was only because of my loyalty that I gave the princess a way out. If it were someone else, the princess would have lost a great opportunity."

"..." Luo Shuang's expression changed again.

"Fourth Princess, your expression has changed again." Du Ge looked at Luo Shuang and shook his head, "A ruler must hide their true feelings and show emotions only as a facade."

"Mr. He, Luo Shuang has learned her lesson." Luo Shuang took a deep breath and said.

"Fourth Princess, you better truly take this to heart. Our enemy is the powerful Duke Dingguo, and more precisely, the entire Qingwu Kingdom. With just the two of us, overthrowing a country is as difficult as climbing to the heavens, or to put it bluntly, it's a fool's dream."

Du Ge said, "If the princess doesn't have a resilient heart, it's better to give up from the start. I can find a good family for the princess, hide her identity, and let her live a peaceful life, raising children and teaching them, living safely for a lifetime. As long as the princess doesn't reveal her identity, no one will find her."

Luo Shuang was stunned.

"Is this the kind of life the princess wants?" Du Ge looked directly at Luo Shuang, his eyes full of encouragement, and asked.

"Of course not." Luo Shuang's eyes flickered.

"I'll ask again, can the princess really persevere to the end?" Du Ge pressed, "I don't want my efforts to be in vain."

"I can." Luo Shuang said.

"Good." Du Ge smiled, "In that case, from now on, I will supervise the princess with the strictest requirements. It is said that when heaven bestows a great responsibility on someone, they must first suffer their mind, toil their body, starve their flesh, and empty their being...

If the princess makes a mistake, I will correct it directly; if the princess becomes lazy, I might whip her... If I offend the princess, I hope she won't mind."

"I won't mind." Luo Shuang stared blankly at Du Ge, seeing a shadow of her father in him. Once, her father was also this strict with her brothers.

At this moment.

Luo Shuang's doubts about Du Ge vanished.

"Princess, I aim to be a loyal minister, not a sycophant." Du Ge sighed softly and shook his head, "In the days to come, no matter how much I offend the princess, even if the princess hates me to the bone, please bury that hatred in your heart. When the day comes that we restore the kingdom, then the princess can deal with me as she wishes."

"Mr. He, why say such things?" Luo Shuang was instantly flustered, "I know Mr. He is doing this for my good. Luo Shuang is not foolish; how could I be ungrateful?"

"Fourth Princess, there's no need for that." Du Ge smiled, "Throughout history, how many loyal ministers have had good endings? Since I've taken this step, I'm prepared for the worst, and I won't regret it."

"Mr. He..." Luo Shuang looked at Du Ge, tears suddenly streaming down her face.

After a moment of thought, she reached into her bosom, took out her personal jade pendant, and offered it to Du Ge with both hands, "Please accept this jade pendant. I swear, no matter what, I will not harm Mr. He. If one day I lose my way, just show me this jade pendant, and I will understand."

Du Ge smiled at Luo Shuang, took the jade pendant, and said, "Thank you for your trust, Princess. Now, let's pack up and move on. The smell of blood here is too strong; it might attract demon beasts."

"Yes." Luo Shuang nodded.

Du Ge bent down, gathering silver, food, and other useful resources from the assassins and guards.

Luo Shuang followed closely behind him, asking, "With your great talent, why did General Sichen send you to Chongming Kingdom as a spy?"

"Is the princess still doubting me?" Du Ge looked up and asked with a smile.

"No." Luo Shuang said, "I'm just curious. With your skills, you could have achieved much under General Sichen."

"Doubt is good." Du Ge said, "Without doubt, I would think less of you. Our future force will grow, and we will encounter many with ulterior motives. The princess must always maintain a suspicious mind and think thrice before acting to minimize mistakes."

"Thank you for the lesson, Mr. He." Luo Shuang said.

"As for why I was sent as a spy." Du Ge smiled and continued, "Since we've come this far, there's no point in hiding. Our real goal was to overthrow the Chongming Kingdom's regime."

"Overthrow Chongming Kingdom?" Luo Shuang's eyes widened in shock.

"Yes, it's a grand plan, and I'm just a part of it. In national conflicts, there is no right or wrong." Du Ge sighed, "There are many spies like me in Chongming Kingdom. Unfortunately, before the plan could unfold, Qingwu Kingdom fell first."

Gulp!

Luo Shuang swallowed, suddenly thinking of a possibility, and asked tremblingly, "Mr. He, can we use those spies?"

"When General Sichen was around, we could." Du Ge said, "But with the royal family gone, it's uncertain. Not everyone is as loyal to Qingwu Kingdom as I am. Besides, I don't know how to contact them..."

"Oh." Luo Shuang sighed in disappointment.

"Princess, don't think too much." Du Ge smiled, "We must take things one step at a time. Once we have our own people and power, we can then rally those still loyal to Qingwu Kingdom."

"Can we?" Luo Shuang asked.

"What can we?" Du Ge asked back.

"Can the two of us really reclaim Qingwu Kingdom?" Luo Shuang looked at the corpses on the ground and asked wistfully.

"I don't know if we can reclaim Qingwu Kingdom, but I know that a single spark can start a prairie fire." Du Ge stood up straight, his eyes bright like stars in the sky, "The mountain is right in front of us. Climbing it may be hard, but as long as we keep moving up, we have a chance to reach the top. If we stop, we'll never get there."
