Chapter 2713: Di Fuyi’s Requirement (2)
"The entire idea of the invasion was from the marshal and I. Our men were only carrying out their duties under our command. You should put all the blame on me. Can I offer a counter proposal? I will tell you every secret that you want to know in exchange for their lives to be spared. As the chief offender, I shall stay behind for any sort of punishment that you have for me. How about that?"
Gu Xijiu certainly did not expect that he would be so loyal to his men. All of a sudden, the hatred that she had for him was reduced by a little. "Your second chance depends on your performance."
With a nod, Guan Yaning’s eyes shone with delight. "Great. What can I do?"
"First, tell me everything that you know."
Guan Yaning hesitated. If he told them every secret that he knew, there would be nothing left for him to bargain with.
Di Fuyi seemed to understand his concern. "You can choose to trust us or have death befall your men. In fact, there is still hope for you if you cooperate fully. I shall decide the fate of your men based on the significance of the information that you choose to share. If it is of utmost importance, I will spare a hundred lives. For every piece of general information, I will spare ten. If it is something trivial, only one life will be spared."
At this point, there really was nothing Guan Yaning could do, except to tell the truth. Many secrets were unfolded. For example, the practice of Primary and Secondary Black Magic started about 10,000 years ago by the royal family of the Blue Fox planet. Back then, a celestial master showed up just when they started mastering the practice of the Primary and Secondary Black Magic. The celestial master was competent, so he was assigned to assist the crown prince in governing the country. He performed splendidly.
