Thanks for your hard work Minak Amie.

Feng Ming, who was dazed momentarily, sighed. “Even though I am awarehis actions were not good, do we really need to stain our hands any further?The continuous killing? How many lives have been stolen already? Luo Deng, thismatter… regardless of whose side these bodies were from, give them a properburial. If there are any that are just injured, take care of them until theyheal.”
Ran Qing spoke up, “I’m afraid all the enemies have died. Even if anyare alive, we shouldn’t heal them. One slice across the throat will do. Whoknow how many of our brothers they have killed?”
“He’s right. Rescuing one’s enemy is something a woman would do.”
“Ridiculous!” Feng Ming suddenly snarled.
The Young Lord’s temper had so far been as gentle as a well-behavedbaby’s. The impression he gave them was one of a docile and timid person.Therefore, the sound of his angry abruption caused quite a bit of shock forthose surrounding.
Feng Ming watched as water smashed into the deck, washing away traces ofblood. He slowly and quietly said, “Did any of you know that with just onesword, all the hard work painstakingly done by a person can be erased? A motherwill bear a baby for 10 months and afterwards look after them day after day.She watches her child grow up, provides resources to live, and teaches him howto behave and survive in the world. All that effort is destroyed by one swingof a sword. Even animals will only choose to be brutal during a desperatesituation, let alone humans.”
He continued staring at the deck that was slowly being submerged inwater. “Release all the small boats, we will go ashore. This ship can no longermove, so we will leave it here temporarily. Whether we repair it or abandon itlater on will be Luo Deng’s decision.”
Luo Deng quickly replied, “Understood, Young Lord!”
“Ran Qing.”
“Here.”
“Because you have looked down on the importance of life, I order you torelinquish your sword for 10 days.”
Ran Qing’s whole complexion changed.
As one of the Xiao Family’s assassins, he could not exist without aweapon. Even a minute without a weapon on him would make him feel uncomfortableand empty, let alone 10 days.
“Young Lord…” After tonight’s battle, all the men held a differentopinion of Feng Ming than compared to in the past. Watching him mete out apunishment, none dared to refute. Ran Qing, while young, was never scared ofthe strict rules of the Xiao Family. But tonight, he was truly startled by theYoung Lord’s unfamiliar dignified manner. It was like the Old Master wasstanding before him.
The sound of his knees meeting the floor reverberated throughout theship as he begged, “Ran Qing deserves to die, please Young Lord, change mypunishment to whipping. I beg you not to confiscate this subordinate’s sword.”
Feng Ming stood still as the night wind blew against him. Standing nearthe sinking ship’s bow, his slender body possessed an unusual countenance.Following the ferocious fight, smoke could be seen emitting from the river andthe smell of blood remained faint in the air. The scenery that was wrapped insuch a formidable atmosphere gave the Xiao Family’s Young Lord an image ofcomposure and might.
Rong Hu was nearby when he saw Ran Qing kneel before Feng Ming. Seeingthe rapid rise and fall of his chest, he guessed Feng Ming’s stance on thematter was beginning to waver. Furthermore, the expression on his face was asif he was about to pardon Ran Qing.
However, without warning, Feng Ming lightly exhaled and gently said,“You don’t agree with my punishment?
Then, there is no need for you to remainin our Xiao Family.”
