Xu Lang stood there, dumbfounded.
His mind replayed the Prince's words earlier.
If it were his beloved companions committing crimes, would he act like Cao Zhengying, sparing them due to sentiment, choosing to prevent and conceal rather than bring them to justice?
He asked himself.
He would!
Because those innocent citizens who died have no relation to him, they're neither family nor friends.
Whereas his beloved companions are all very important people to him.
But!
The Prince's words: A true hero serves the nation and its people.
Since he set foot in the Martial Arts world and became famous, from a Young Hero to a Great Hero respected by all, he had grown accustomed to being addressed everywhere as Great Hero Xu.
It had long become second nature.
He had never reflected on whether he truly deserved the title of Great Hero.
Thinking about it now, he doesn't deserve these two words.
The term Great Hero is not so superficial; it carries so much meaning...
