Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 357: The shadow guard

Xiao Jun walked over him and held his broad shoulder. Liu Wei was his most trusted subordinate, like Yang Yu for Xiao Tianyao. That was why he knew that he wouldn't dare to convey that news without first confirmed the validity of it.

Xiao Jun brought back the infuriated man a few step back before he gestured Liu Wei to continue with his report. The more important thing now was to know what was happening.

Liu Wei lowered his gazed as he recalled. "General Wang Yu led another group of the Golden Arrow Archer and waited for Elder Dam group at the border line. And" He paused to clear his throat before continued. " When their General Wang Yu reached the border line, he killed Elder Dam."

"Wang Yu killed his own father!?" The man who was held by Xiao Jun enraged. "That trash like son!" Elder Dam was his old friend and seemed both relationships were very close with each other.

"Tianyao, where are you going?" Xiao Jun released the furious man and caught up with his brother who had left the room.

Xiao Tianyao long stride had brought him toward the courtyard before Xiao Jun could approach him. He grabbed his shoulder, demanding him to stop.

"I asked you, where are you going?" Xiao Jun repeated his question sternly.

Xiao Tianyao turned to face his brother and gave him a menacing glared. "You asked me where am I going? Is that even a question, Jun?" He growled.

"Tianyao, we still have a matter in hand here." Xiao Jun tried to reasoning with him, which he knew, his effort would be fruitless nonetheless.

"You will be fine on your own." Xiao Tianyao retorted.

"We need to think this thoroughly, don't get carried away. I know you are worry about Senja, but we still didn't know her whereabouts."

"I will find her!" Xiao Tianyao snapped and shook Xiao Jun's hand from his shoulder harshly.

"Tianyao think about this again. We need to come up with arrangement for the Shadow Guard."

Xiao Tianyao didn't answer him, narrowing his eyes, he crossed his arms impatiently.

"The death of Elder Dam will turn the Shadow Guard without leader, in this time Wang Yu will take the opportunity and force their loyalty onto him. We can't let that happen."

"That's what you think? You didn't even think about the death of Elder Dam?" Xiao Tianyao sneered.

Xiao Jun shook his head in denial, Xiao Tianyao statement was sound as though he accused him to not care enough on Elder Dam. "How can you think like that?" He said while clenching his teeth. "Do you think if I act recklessly like what you will do now, Elder Dam will come alive again?"

"At least I didn't talking about profit and loss about his death." Xiao Tianyao glared at him.

"So, you want to mourn? After that what else? Cancel all the plans that we have made?" This time Xiao Jun turned to mock him.

Xiao Jun didn't want to argue with Xiao Tianyao, but only because he acted callous didn't mean he felt nothing. Elder Dam was his Master after all, impossible if he didn't feel anything. "He will die in vain if we don't do anything."

"So, what exactly you wanted to do?" Xiao Tianyao asked defiantly.

"We need to take over the Shadow Guard before they fall on Wang Yu's hand."

"Good. Because that is exactly what I am going to do." Xiao Tianyao nodded in agreement. "Elder Dam handed over the command of Shadow Guard to me."

"What?" Xiao Jun asked in confusion.

"Those hundreds people have to know their new commander. So, stay away, Jun." Xiao Tianyao said coldly, leaving Xiao Jun who was still looking at him with perplexed expression.
