The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 771 - 357: Refusing to Save (Ten Updates)

"In the end, everything, it’s all your doing! The battle between the two armies today, the countless soldiers who died or were injured, all were caused by you, Xiao Jinxing! The person who really should bear the consequences is you!" Xiao Jinsen’s voice was resolute.

All the blame was attributed to Xiao Jinxing.

"Survival of the fittest!" Xiao Jinxing was cool and composed, unfazed by Xiao Jinsen’s provocation. He spoke with an imposing air, "The struggle between us is the result of survival of the fittest! If I don’t take yours, you’ll take mine. If I spare you, you won’t spare me. Everything I’ve done is merely self-preservation. But unlike you, I will not betray my country for glory! Even if I lose to you, I will never become a lackey for the enemy nation!"

"What’s the use of saying all this now?!" Xiao Jinsen no longer cared about Xiao Jinxing’s sarcasm, "The victor becomes king and the vanquished the outlaw; once I win, history will be rewritten for me. I will have my grand achievements recorded in the annals of history. Those so-called unbearable pasts will turn to ashes!"

"Do you think you will win?" Xiao Jinxing retorted with cold irony.

"Unless, you no longer care for her life!" With that, Xiao Jinsen grabbed Bai Mowan.

After several days of torment, Bai Mowan was weak to the extreme.

When Xiao Jinsen grabbed her like this, her body went limp, without any strength to resist.

She appeared so fragile and helpless.

A fierce light flickered through Xiao Jinxing’s eyes.

Xiao Jinsen sneered, "It will be quite a taste to watch the woman you love most thrown from atop the city walls, smashing to pieces on impact!"

Xiao Jinxing clenched the hilt of his sword.

His body barely concealed its shivering.

"Don’t worry about me, Brother Xing, don’t worry about me!" Bai Mowan shouted with her last ounce of strength, her voice heart-wrenching.

As her words fell.

Bai Mowan was slapped fiercely across the face by Xiao Jinsen.

In front of the armies of the Bai Family and Beimu, so many generals and soldiers, she was left with not a shred of dignity!

"Behave!" Xiao Jinsen threatened her in a low voice, hissing through his teeth next to Bai Mowan’s ear, "I don’t mind letting Wang Quan repeat yesterday’s act in front of your beloved Xiao Jinxing and the Bai Family army you lead!"

Terror filled Bai Mowan’s eyes.

She was genuinely frightened by Xiao Jinsen.

The unimaginable cruelty of Xiao Jinsen left no room for hope.

He could do many things that would make life worse than death.

Xiao Jinsen saw that Bai Mowan had subdued.

Only then did he turn his gaze back to Xiao Jinxing.

And finally, Xiao Jinxing’s gaze settled on Bai Mowan.

Bruised and pale, her strength sapped.

The female general who led thousands of troops, once valiant and heroic, now seemed as if she would collapse at the slightest breeze!

The sudden pain in his chest was so unexpected.

It was for Bai Mowan.

He still had great reluctance in his heart.

Still, his heart ached like being cut with a knife because of her suffering.

Xiao Jinxing’s adam’s apple bobbed, furiously suppressing his emotions.

Not just to prevent Xiao Jinsen from seeing his emotional fluctuation, it was more like he no longer wanted to let this agony affect his... decision.

"Does it hurt that much?" From a distance, Xiao Jinsen watched Xiao Jinxing and laughed maniacally, "Then what she went through last night must have broken your heart. By the way, do you have any idea how ravishing she was last night..."

"Let her go!" Xiao Jinxing cut Xiao Jinsen off abruptly.

His voice was resonant and firm, still calm and cool.

Not a trace of loss of control.

Xiao Jinxing really could endure quite a bit.

Xiao Jinsen sneered.

Back then, had it not been for Xiao Jinxing’s ability to endure, he could not have deceived him.

"Release her, naturally you can," said Xiao Jinsen. "Surrender and admit defeat, and I will return the woman you love most to you!"

Xiao Jinxing glared at Xiao Jinsen with rage.

The cruelty and bloodthirst in his eyes were unabashed.

Xiao Jinsen said, "Unwilling, are you? Unwilling to give up your country and throne for the woman you love; to give up your position as the Emperor of Daxuan Kingdom! Xiao Jinxing, in the end, that’s all you amount to. Under the pretext of love, you’re still selfish and self-serving!"

"What I can’t let go of are the common people of Daxuan Kingdom, and all of my generals," Xiao Jinxing pronounced each word with gravity.

"Spare me your false benevolence in front of me. We are brothers, and I know all too well what you really desire. All you want is your dominion, your supreme power. Those commoners, those so-called generals, they are merely tools to disguise your hypocritical heart!"

"Since you understand all this, what’s the use of threatening me with her?!" retorted Xiao Jinxing coldly.

The implication was, he would not be threatened.

"To let everyone see your true colors, to let the woman you love most see just how cruel you truly are," Xiao Jinsen sneered. "I will not be the only one to bear the infamy!"

"So what if it changes nothing? Like you said, the victor becomes the king and the defeated become the outlaws. If I win, it will be my glorious history, everything else will be ashes!"

Xiao Jinsen sneered.

Xiao Jinxing really knows how to negotiate.

Just a few words, and he’s left somewhat speechless.

Xiao Jinsen looked at Xiao Jinxing, "So, you’ve decided not to save her."

"Not saving her," Xiao Jinxing confirmed bluntly.

That resolute tone.

Still caused Bai Mowan a twinge of heartache.

She didn’t want Xiao Jinxing to shoulder the burden of the world for her sake.

She would rather die than have Xiao Jinxing sacrifice so much for her, and she feared his death for her once more.

However, actually hearing him utter those decisively blunt words, the pain was unbearable for her.

In his previous life, Xiao Jinxing had never fought for her.

He went straight to his death by Xiao Jinsen’s sword.

This life.

Xiao Jinxing chose to give up.

To completely let go of her.

So, Xiao Jinxing’s feelings for her had truly changed.

They were no longer as she believed, where she was more important than vengeance, more important than the world.

"Really, quite straightforward," Xiao Jinsen’s eyes tightened.

He had anticipated Xiao Jinxing would make this choice.

Capturing Bai Mowan was just one of his strategies.

By capturing her, Xiao Jinxing would then attack Muge City, and they could fight a defensive battle.

By capturing her, Xiao Jinxing might indeed abandon the world for Bai Mowan’s sake.

Capturing her, most importantly, was to use Bai Mowan to cover up the trap he had set today.

The next plan was to lead Xiao Jinxing to his own ruin.

"Today marks the day of reckoning between the two of us brothers. I give you two choices: first, let go of the past, open the gates and help me take down Muge City. Let bygones be bygones, and when we return, I’ll grant you all the glory and riches you desire!" said Xiao Jinsen with a sneer.

Xiao Jinxing really is too full of himself.

"Second, from today onwards, our brotherhood is severed with a Sword! I will directly take down Muge City, then I will have you cut into pieces, left to the wilderness, and henceforth in Daxuan Kingdom, there will be no more a Prince of Chu!"
