Imperial Treasure-Chapter 853 - 522: Melting Oil, TP3!

Xius bent down: "Losar, you should go, Junshi Titan has nothing to do with this matter, it’s true. As for the lady... she will understand sooner or later that all this is not our doing, but fate..."

He looked at Cao Qijun: "Madam, if you had seen those thirty or so people who were attached to the family of His Highness in Florence back then, getting involved and thus all becoming the bones beneath our feet, and if you had seen us descendants getting involved, and even His Highness struggling painfully for hundreds of years, enduring unimaginable suffering in obscurity and hatred... you would not think that all this today is evil." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Because many of the people here, a large part of their ancestors were Caesar’s lackeys, they betrayed the Commander who once led them to the victory of the revolution, they also betrayed their faith, and then enjoyed the glory and peace stolen from others. Hundreds of years of splendor, today we just reasonably demand the life they need to pay."

Upon hearing this, many people present had changed expressions, some ashamed, some with flickering eyes, and some shocked. Clearly, some knew about this past, while others were completely in the dark.

The latter made up the majority, so they ignorantly and fearlessly set foot on this lonely island, otherwise, without some ulterior motives, most people wouldn’t dare to set foot on this island full of bones due to their ancestors’ greed and betrayal.

So when Xius said this, many suddenly understood why they were invited, and why Sui Yi said Caesar planned to use their lives to escape the shackles.

The blood of their families was also sinful, to wash away the countless people’s curse upon Caesar, it could only be cleansed with their blood...

They were scapegoats.

Driven to this mountain, to die in place of Caesar!

Many were indignant, some were full of lingering fear, and many were undecided.

Xius lowered his head: "Junshi Titan is the only family that can survive and possibly achieve happiness, I beg you to show mercy."

His voice was so hoarse, the usually kind and friendly face was stained with dust and vicissitudes.

When revenge is about to reach its peak, both the avenging and avenged parties feel enormous fatigue.

Because this revenge is like making them relive the despair and pain of the past once more.

Moreover, he had to step on the corpses of his companions to send his enemy to Hell.

Even he was like this, let alone His Highness in Florence.

And Losar, being such a righteous person, has already made quite a sacrifice this time by coming forward.

Cao Qijun looked at Xius, then at Losar, pursed her lips, and said: "Xius, I’m not angry about this matter, but... I’ll sort it out with him properly, now the most important thing for us is to leave here together first."

Ah~ The moment this was said, eight to nine tenths forgiveness had already been reached. No, it should be said that the anger was not much, to begin with, just dissatisfaction with Losar hiding it from her.

Xius smiled contentedly but shook his head: "I can’t go."

"Grandpa Xius," Chark hugged his leg.

Xius was helpless, his fingers brushed over his head, tears burning in his eyes.

Actually, he was reluctant... to leave this little chubby kid...

"Xius, leave with them, protect them... that’s my order."

Xiluo’s hoarse voice came from behind, and just as Xius was about to say something, he saw Xiluo’s tired face and the look in his eyes as he gazed at Chark.

Protect him well.

That was his unspoken command.

Xius suddenly found himself speechless, lowered his head: "As you command, Your Highness."

He picked up Chark in his arms, "Losar, Madam, let’s go!"

They could leave, but what about the others?

"Get lost," Xiluo looked at them, coolly spitting out: "Believe the person behind you will send you all to Hell on my behalf."

Though it was unpleasant to hear, at least it gave everyone hope, without further ado, they each bolted down the other side of the mountain.

Because the place facing Hellfire Castle was where the Corpse People would swarm...

Running to the other side could directly reach the beach, but they would have to circumnavigate halfway to reach the port.

By that time, they would still have to consider which planes or ships were usable.

Simply put, this was truly a nine-out-of-ten chance of death.

But at least there’s still that one chance of survival!

Nusser and their group were running downhill in that direction,

Run!

The originally quite large group of people started running downhill.

The Hellhound was indifferent.

No expression.

Natasha sneered at him, yet turned to look at Yichi Lian, Ye Zixu, and Ming Lanyuan.
