Chapter 7 Affection

923 Words
Even if Russell were matured and sophisticated, he would never expect Will to make such a decision. Or more precisely, he didn't expect that Will's decision would be so decisive and without even the slightest consideration and hesitation.   Russell could tell from this alone that the crown prince had changed.   "Your Highness, I know that this is a tough call for you. But what is more important than life in this world? It is most important for you to stay alive!"   Hearing what he said, Will took a look at Serena, and a smile came upon his face.   More important than life was that Serena was always by his side, protecting him!   If he ignored the humiliation Serena' suffered today, he wouldn't need to leave the palace to come to the Grand Preceptor's residence. He could hide in his palace and practice until he was powerful enough to protect himself, ignoring all threats overtly.   However, that kind of life was too cold and cruel. He didn’t want to be a ruthless person like the others.   Although affection and love were viewed as nothing, he couldn't let go of his admiration for his beloved people.   Therefore, Will needed to keep his passed mother’s item that was left to him.   Perhaps in the eyes of others, it was a stupid persistence. However, if Will accepted his condition, he would lose his meaning of living in this world. He would never forget what he persisted for and treasured! Seeing that he hadn't convinced Will, Russell said again, "Your Highness, you should know what you should do and should not. and you should know how to give and take!"   Will looked around and said, "Grand Preceptor, if all lives in your entire family must be sacrificed to save your life, will you be willing to do it?"   Russell blanked out for a second. He already knew that this youth was not the person he used to be now.   "I have said what I needed to say, Goodbye!" Russell waved his hand suddenly when Will and Serena left his residence.   A person appeared out of nowhere in the hall.   "Go and check what happened in the past few months, especially after the prince woke up."   Russell was no i***t. Will’s abnormal behavior made him suspicious.   "I heard that the prince killed the servant David at level four of the Realm of Qi Condensation. Many people witnessed it."   After Russell heard what he said, his pupils shrunk. In fact, it was no big deal that such a servant at level four of the Realm of Qi Condensation died. The servant was like an ant to him, but it was shocking that Will killed him.   In just a moment, Russell figured out. He smiled, "It turns out that this is the real reason why the prince came to visit me today. I could always tell when there is potential talent throughout my life, but today, I was wrong."   "Your Highness, you can kill a person at level four of Realm of Qi Condensation. Why are you hiding such talent?"   "Then," Russell's eyes shone, "Your Highness, I will see if you are a real talent!"   "Please give my order!"   The long street was extremely lively. Will and Serena were walking along on it.   "Your Highness, shall we go back to the palace?"   The lack of support from the Grand Preceptor was a bit worrying.   Serena had lived in the palace for many years and knew the importance of borrowing and taking advantage of others' power. However, although she had worry in her eyes, her eyes were still bright.   She was an orphan saved by the empress that passed away, who was also Will's mother. She much appreciated the great kindness of the empress. To pay back to her, she stayed by Will's side without thinking about leaving even though she suffered so many humiliations for so many years.   She thought of the empress as her mother. If Will handed over the only item left by her, Serena would be a little disappointed.   But Will didn't do it, which made her happy. But she thought that without the support of the Grand Preceptor, they would be even more dangerous to survive in the palace in the future.   Will smiled and said, "We haven't been to this Imperial City from the palace in a long time. Let's take a walk here while we still have a chance." He didn't worry so much! It was true that without the support of the Grand Preceptor, it would be more difficult for them to survive in the palace.   But in another world, he ran a vast business empire. He was decisive, courageous, and tough! Different personalities determined his decision!   It seemed that his future was challenging and dime. But he believed he could make use of the crisis he was facing as an opportunity of hope!   In this huge Cherish Dynasty, Will believed in himself that he could make it. Otherwise, he would waste this opportunity of being reincarnated in this era.   "Your Highness, sorry!"   Serena lowered her head. She felt very guilty. If she hadn’t gotten into trouble, the prince wouldn't have killed someone. She believed it was all her fault!   Will gently shook her hand and said, "The Grant Preceptor asked me before what is more important than life, and I will tell you now that it is to protect the one I love!"   Serena's beautiful eyes filled with affection. She knew she trusted herself to the right guy!   Walking away from the long street, the adjacent streets are even more lively. The crowded street had various shops.   Serena was still young, and her curiosity overwhelmed her worry. Not long after, she forgot what they would face and happily toured around.
