Yoon Jong gulped.
A lot of people were now suddenly looking at him. This included the Lord, his men, and the guards.
His legs felt wobbly.
At that moment, the roaring voice of the Lord reached his ears.
“I heard you used all your money to help the poor in Kunming.”
Yoon Jong nodded.
He knew that even if he tried to speak, his voice wouldn’t come out.
“Why?”
“…uh?”
The Beast Palace Lord asked him a stupefying question.
“You are a person of the Central Plains. You came here on a mission. But why did you decide to do that? Standing out wouldn’t be nice, right?”
Young Jong shut his mouth.
He already talked about this with Jo Gul. But now… he might have to tell a different story. With his eyes closed and his thoughts organized, Yoon Jong raised his head and looked at the Lord.
“I don’t quite understand the meaning of the question.”
“I asked you why you did that?”
“I still do not understand.”
“Uh?”
Yoon Jong stopped trembling. Then he took a deep breath and looked forward.
“Does a person need a reason to help others?”
“…”
The Beast Palace Lord flinched slightly as he heard this unexpected answer.
“It doesn’t matter whether we are from - Yunnan or the Central Plains… If there is someone in front of me who needs help, I will help them.”
Seeing Yoon Jong speaking confidently, Chung Myung whispered to Jo Gul.
“I think that was too much.”
“Uh… really.”
‘These bastards…’
“Ahem.”
Yoon Jong coughed as he heard their words and immediately looked forward again.
“Then are you saying that you will do the same thing the next time you are in such a situation?”
“No.”
Yoon Jong shook his head.
“The way of the Tao does not work like that. The Tao is called the Tao only when it happens by coincidence. If the circumstance and the person who is helping others change, how can the same situation happen? I just do what my heart tells me to do.”
“What your heart tells to.”
The Lord’s lips turned to a slight smile.
“So, that means that you just wanted to help at that moment and, therefore, did.”
“Yes.”
“Even by selling your sword.”
“…”
‘Why do people keep talking about the sword!’
“I am reflecting on it.”
“You regret it?”
“I regret it. But at the same time, I don’t,” Yoon Jong proudly spoke.
Then the Lord titled his head and asked.
