A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 21 – Discussion

"So, explain to us, anything we might not have known."

Sung Han tried to avoid the glare of Yu Ceng's pair of sharp eyes, inexplicably he felt uneasy himself.

"I just don't know which one you know and which one doesn't?"

"Then tell us about you, why did the master teacher tell me to take care of you. At least as your host and feeder for the next few days, it doesn't matter if I know?"

Sung Han sighed heavily before telling a story. "I was once a White Rajawali lackey who participated in the tragedy in the forest, the slaughter of my family."

"Your parents are from Rajawali Puith?" asked Yu Ceng quickly.

"No. But I had already considered them all as family." then he continued, "The two people below were also participating in the massacre back then, even your young master and the brewpub were also joining in."

"You mean Uncle Bao Leng?" Yu Ping cut in, "Si's a brew right?"

"Ah...the name is Bao Leng? Yeah, maybe that's."

Sung Han recounts from beginning to end. Five years ago, then followed a meeting between himself and the Golden Stick troupe in the village of Batu Alam. Then the clash in the forest against the Three Demons Face One which then killed many casualties on both sides.

"Brakk!!"

Not finished Sung Han's story, the table was kicked and knew Yu Ceng had risen with glaring eyes. His teeth were grumbling with his face red.

"You killed them? You slaughtered them?" hisses.

Sung Han looked attentively before replying, "True...Consider that it was a reply for five years ago–eh miss Yu?"

Yu Ceng moved quickly, both of his hands pulling Sung Han's collar violently. Just then this young man could feel the stream of breath Yu Ceng was hunting down, fiercely striking his face.

"You..you....!!"

Wanting Sung Han to forcibly take off, but a second later he was wide-eyed when suddenly Yu Ceng collapsed to the side. Yu Ping became hysterical and hit her brother.

"Sister..what are you doing? Your body is weak!!"

Teetering, Yu Ceng stood up with the help of his sister. Yu Ping swept her towards the room, before disappearing behind the curtains that connected with the living room, it could be seen at a glance by Sung Han how those pretty eyes were looking at her sharply.

While Yu Ping only looked at Sung Han with a wry expression, as if apologizing for his brother's behavior.

As close as the two people were, Sung Han sighed heavily. "Is what I'm doing wrong? Why do so many people not like me?"

"Your room is upstairs!!!"

Sung Han was aghast as he heard a shrill voice followed by coughing and a loud reprimand from Yu Ping. This young man was only able to shake.

...****************...

The next morning, in a fairly quiet place and quite separated from the new member settlement, Sung Han and Jade Shi were seated opposite each other for a conversation.

"We continued the conversation yesterday." Jade Shi started the conversation.

"Where to yesterday? I forgot."

Jade Shi frowned and looked thoughtful. The old man also forgot the conversation yesterday. Until finally even Sung Han who remembered first and asked.

"Why are you keeping me here?" gone is talk.

"Ah.really, yesterday up there. Um.not confinement, but to take care of you." Giok Shi replied calmly. "I don't underestimate you." he continued when he saw Sung Han about to argue.

A short snort before replying, "You're securing me here? That's not the same as underestimating, do you think I'm going to die fast by traveling out there?"

Jade Shi sighed. A lot of patience indeed to face such a stubborn young man. He ignored it and said something else.

"Sung Han, it seems that it is true that the Heart of Satan is the third party that has pitted against all of us."

Sung Han tilted his head, demanding an answer.

"They started doing the trick. Yesterday I had not told you this, but there were already some villages around here that were confused by them. You know why?"

"Could it be to lure you out and show the science of the inheritance?"

"Well right! I think so too! I've sent Gu Ren, Bao Leng and Pat Kue to investigate and stop their behavior. But, hah.if left unchecked then innocent citizens will be victims."

Jade Shi nodded his head, "Indeed concerning, but how else, the journey from here to one village is not short. Hah..at least we can reduce the impact caused."

Sung Han thought for a while then continued, "You're going to intervene?"

Jade Shi sighed, "Some, if it's true, then I'll intervene to help Gu Ren. Or if they dare to die come here openly."

Then Sung Han thought of one thing last night, before going to bed suddenly thought of him. He asked this to the bald man.

"Eh, I have one thing that makes me curious. Now, where did the student who five years ago tell you that your elders have been found?"

Jade Shi was startled for an instant, yet regained his composure after a while. His reply was subtle but sorrowful, "He. After hearing the news of your actions in the forest, he vanished."

Sung Han stood up and looked angrily, "Why can't you stand it!! Can you make sure that it's really your members!?"

Jade Shi looked even more grieved, "Don't get angry like that Sung Han, I've already thought about this. Indeed, after some time after I found the book and heritage of the White Mask, a few weeks later the news spread. I'm guessing, maybe he's the one who spread it."

"Then he was so worried about my main disciple, that was Gu Ren's father who had disappeared somewhere for a few days, when the boy reported I became excited and sent some people to investigate."

The grandfather was suddenly aghast as Sung Han again exclaimed. "Why stop our journey? Did you know from the beginning that the elder was dead?"

"According to Gu Ren, after some time to go to investigate, they found out that Gu Ren's father had been killed. And that's true because they found his body, but without a head. After burying the corpse, he heard from the bandits around there who were said to have sold Gu Ren's father's head by being put in a crate."

Sighing a deep breath before continuing, "The bandit was gone unceasingly. But the storage crates there were all shaped the same, so Gu Ren and the others thought that the crates used for the head container were also the same shape. So after a few days of probing, they finally found the same coffin in the White Eagles."

"Breea!!"

The stone that Sung Han was sitting on was crushed into flour just as the young man stepped on it. "Congrels! It must have been the one who killed your disciple, the bandit and the whistleblower were on the same side!"

"I also suspect that. And this assumption grew stronger when you heard the news that you were invited here, and then this whistleblower's student vanished. Of course he's scared shitless until you find out about him."

"Fuck!!" Sung Han was furious, his face was flushed red. "It turns out! That's how it happened!?"

"I dare not lie."

Sung Han was like a man of infidelity, he crushed the trees or stones around him indiscriminately. Until after being satisfied, he returned before Jade Shi who waved like he was calling someone.

"Well, what do you want to suspect. Am I lying? Is Sung Han a criminal? He committed a murder in the woods that was our own fault five years ago. Our sins!"

Sung Han was astonished. But soon the sense of wonder disappeared when suddenly a shadow flashed and two people stood there.

"Lie Cong, Siam's Pack?" surprised Sung Han to learn of the two men's arrival.

Lie Cong and Pek Siam did not care about Sung Han and said respectfully to Jade Shi, "But still our hearts..."

"Lie Cong, how long will you let your body be burned by the flames of vengeance? You haven't fallen too far, forget that grudge!"

Lie Cong looked dissatisfied, but only nodded. Then Pek Siam faced Sung Han and said, "Sung Han, we've heard everything. Though our hearts are not satisfied that you are innocent, let the past be the past. Presumably with the talk of the teacher and you, all became light."

Then he turned his head towards Jade Shi, "Teacher, we should inform all the members of this news. They should know about the problems that have been unclear for five years. Similarly to the young master's entourage, we must send a letter."

"Do as you say!" jade Shi Order. These two people bowed respectfully and with a goodbye before leaving from there.

Jade Shi looked at Sung Han, "Sung Han, now my heart is relieved. I have long hesitated to accuse the Heart of Satan of being a third party, but after hearing your words and seeing the movements of the Heart of Satan making a mess here and there, the disappearance of my disciple just before your arrival, has been very difficult, I can believe that the White Guardians are innocent and that it was my missing disciple who had conspired with them."

Sung Han frowned, "So I hear your words more often and tell you absolutely nothing, everything you've guessed. Why is it that now that you've met me, you've come to believe that the White Guard is innocent?"

The grandfather smiled gently, "You think how many years I've been? I've had the experience to know someone's lies and honestly."

"I'm not telling lies or being honest."

"Indeed, but your attitude is honest. If you try to cover something up, I'll know. This young man's behavior like yours is easy to guess."

Sung Han frowned. But Jade Shi again said, "Sung Han, now they are after not only me, but also your sword. That heirloom sword not many people know, even the real reason I secured you here was that only a few of my confidants knew. You must be careful, the Black Dragon is in danger."

Sung Han nodded, your gaze slightly changed, his hands clenched tightly.
