Chapter 52 - IT WASN'T THE RIGHT TIME

Modama's eyes flickered with uneasiness upon hearing the flattering words from Xiao Zi. He knew it well how Luna ability was.

"They really will kill each other now." Modama mumbled.

From afar, he could see how Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun were fighting ferociously. At this time, both of them had drawn blood from each other. While the ordinary guards had stepped back, didn't dare to interfere.

"Where are you going?" Modama asked when he saw Xiao Zi was about to walk out of the room.

"I need to stop them." He said in matter of fact.

The Emperor of Azura's answer made Modama raised his eyebrows questioningly. "I thought you want them to kill each other."

"I do." Xiao Zi turned around and a mockery smiled graced his lips. "But, not now. After Tianyao won the battle in Xinghe, people become more incline toward him. It will raise unnecessary trouble for me if he died now."

Modama leaned back on his seat, while he crossed his arms in front of his chest, in disagree manner. "You make roundabout in this matter."

"Not really." Xiao Zi chuckled. "Moreover, Tianyao is already in my hand, no need to kill him now, he still has some use for me if he alive. We will finish him off after I am done with Jun."

With smirk on Modama's lips, Xiao Zi walked out of the room toward the battleground of the two brothers with enthusiasm. However, he didn't know the person who was watching his back has the same intention to ruin his life and his throne as well.

........

The wind from the east blew away the dried leaves on the ground, swirling with the dirt of the soil, smeared with blood of the two brothers who once swore to not hurt each other.

Xiao Jun was breathing heavily, watching Xiao Tianyao next move. He didn't believe it, his own brother attacked him without any scrupulous as if he didn't recognize him anymore.

Something was wrong with him. But, he couldn't pin point what is it. He was still waiting the report that the officer Qi was investigating.

Both of them had bled heavily. If Xiao Jun didn't do anything, in this rate it would be Xiao Tianyao or he who would have died next.

At that time, around twenty people, covered in black uniform surrounded Xiao Tianyao.

In a glance Xiao Jun was able to recognize them. They were The Emperor of Azura's most elite guards, their main purpose was to protect the Emperor and his family, however years ago, they failed to protect his parents. Something amiss with this, especially when the elite guards were mostly still alive while the subject that they need to be protected were not.

Xiao Jun watched in daze, Xiao Tianyao fought the twenty elite guards with difficult. The wound that had inflicted by Xiao Jun started to affect his movement.

He let him fought them alone, as he didn't know how to stop his brother.

However, two of the elite guards sneaked behind his back and Xiao Tianyao wasn't able to react in time when one of them raised his sword and slashed his back.

Blood spurted from his opened wound that made him stumbled forward and fell on his knees, at that time, the closest elite guards used this opportunity to dash toward him, raised his sword and was about to beheaded the prince.
