Bail Organa closed his eyes in pain, shook his head, knelt down and said softly: "Leia... I'm sorry... I can't take you back."
"Why... why?" The tears in Leia's eyes couldn't be stopped anymore, and they fell down. "Is it because Leia is not good? Is it because Leia is not smart enough? It's... Organa's father, he doesn't like it.
Leia?"
"No... Leia. You are very well-behaved and smart... We love you more than anything! You know, your adoptive mother, Borja Organa, is sterile, so we treat you as our biological daughter.
I regard... I'm even willing to hand over the entire planet of Alderaan to you for inheritance! But... but..." A teardrop fell from the corner of Bail Organa's eyes.
Princess Leia burst into tears again.
"But Tang Xiao is right...the planet Alderaan cannot protect you. You are truly safe on the planet Dawn." Bail Organa said.
"No... Leia doesn't like it here! Leia wants to go home, to the planet Alderaan! She wants to be with her adoptive parents!" Leia cried.
Tang Xiao had been watching with cold eyes and said nothing.
"I'm sorry Leia...I, I can't do anything..." Bail Organa finally said these words, and then, face to face with Leia's heartbroken expression, he hurriedly closed the communication.
Long after the holographic projection in front of him turned dark, Tang Xiao lowered his head and saw that Princess Leia's eyes seemed to have lost their sparkle. She just knelt on the ground blankly. Although tears couldn't help flowing down, she
There were no sobs, just tears shed quietly...
"Mr. and Mrs. Organa, they really love you, Leia." Tang Xiao said slowly, "But if I want to love you, love alone is not enough. You also need...power!"
"Why...why?" Princess Leia asked softly.
"Because you are the one who is different." Tang Xiao said, squatting down, picking up Leia, and walking towards the training room, "Let's go, I will tell you some information about your father."
"Well..." Leia nodded, but she still didn't wipe away the tears on her face. She still didn't accept what was happening in front of her.
Arriving at the training room, Tang Xiao put Leia on the ground and waved her hand. The pet robot LO-LA59 she had been holding flew out of her hand and was thrown to the other side.
Leia looked at Laura who was thrown aside, lowered her head, and did not dare to make a sound.
"I will tell you part of your biological father's name." Tang Xiao said straight to the point.
Leia raised her head suddenly and looked at Tang Xiao in disbelief. Originally, she had despaired of knowing the news about her parents, but now she was able to know a little bit of them, even just part of their names, that was very important!
"Darth..." Tang Xiao slowly spit out the word.
Leia's face was a little confused, and she repeated the word, "Darth..."
"Your father's name contains profound meaning and powerful power. Das is the definition of this power." Tang Xiao said.
Leia couldn't understand what Tang Xiao was saying at all. She just looked at him blankly, not knowing what to say.
"I will also tell you my other name." Tang Xiao said.
"Isn't it...Tang Xiao?" Leia asked.
"Darth Malthael." Tang Xiao said calmly.
Leia's whole body felt as if she had been electrocuted. Her eyes suddenly opened wide and she stared straight at Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao was very satisfied with her reaction, nodded and said, "So, you understand, right?"
"You are my father?" Princess Leia seemed to understand.
A drop of cold sweat ran down Tang Xiao's forehead. He tried his best to suppress his laughter and said seriously: "No, I am not your father. I am telling you that your father and I have one thing in common - Das."
"Then...what is Darth?" Leia finally asked the right question.
"In this galaxy, there should be no more than 10 people named Das. So you see, I have told you the range, and it is already a very accurate range." Tang Xiao said.
"I...I know." Leia still didn't understand. She felt that there was no difference between whether she knew the news or not.
"You still don't understand because you don't understand the meaning of the name Das." Tang Xiao continued, "To be precise, this is not simply a name, but a... title."
Leia nodded. Although she couldn't understand, she still tried hard to remember every word Tang Xiao said because it was news about her biological father.
"Let me tell you intuitively. What is the so-called Das..." Tang Xiao raised his hand and waved, only to see a barbell weighing more than 100 kilograms flying over out of thin air next to him, and then he fiercely
With a firm grip, the barbell was immediately twisted into a twist!
Bang! The crumpled barbell fell to the ground, and the loud sound made Leia take a step back. She looked at Tang Xiao, her eyes filled with fear.
Under the protection of the Organa couple, she never knew what the Force was, but she knew the weight of this barbell, and how terrible power it took to twist this thing into a twist!
"Don't be afraid, Leia. Because you have the same power in your body, maybe even more powerful. Because..." Tang Xiao said slowly, "You are the daughter of Darth."
"My father also has this power, right?" Leia asked.
"Very smart. He does have such a powerful power." Tang Xiao replied.
"This power is also why I can't know who he is, right?" Leia asked again.
"Indeed. Only when you truly understand the meaning of Das can you know who he is. Because only then will you truly face a choice." Tang Xiao said, "And as I have always said, choice
, it requires strength.”
"I don't quite understand why choice requires strength?" Leia asked.
Tang Xiao waved his hand again, and an apple and a bottle of drink flew over from a table in the training room. He held the two things in one hand and asked, "Choose, do you want an apple or a drink?"
Leia thought for a while, she just thought the drink might be dangerous, so she pointed at the apple and said, "That... apple, thank you."
Tang Xiao sneered, waved his hand, and a towel flew over. He threw the towel to Leia and said, "But you can only get this."
Leia lowered her head to pick up the towel, a little confused, "I... don't want a towel?"
"But with your strength, you are not qualified to make a choice." Tang Xiao said, "Whatever you want, it's up to you."
Leia was stunned.
"Only when you have mastered power can you have the right to choose. This is the first lesson I will teach you." Tang Xiao said, "After that, I will teach you personally."
