Chapter 28: War and Sea Cliff

() In October 998 of the bilunar calendar, Thunder, the king of the beasts, looked at the Wind City in the distance on the grassland.

"Your Majesty, the last obstacle in Swift Wind City has been cleared, and we can launch an attack."

Catwoman lowered herself to report to this handsome man. She and others called Thunder King Prince, but he was the real King of the Beast Tribe - because the previous king had died under his sword.

"Is there no news about the little princess?"

Rather than the war, Lei Lei seemed to care more about the little princess he had never met.

"No, but we found this ring in the Morning Star Palace..." Catwoman carefully took out the handkerchief, then opened it and held it towards Thunder.

There was a bright red ring wrapped in the handkerchief.

Lei Lei frowned and grabbed the ring with his hand, then his body froze, and his eyes flashed with horror: "Terrible power." He hesitated for a moment, but still put the ring on his hand and slowly closed his eyes.

I don't know how long it took, but he opened his eyes again, with a little joy in his voice: "Send an order for all spies to go to the slums of Jade City to search."

"Our little princess is right there!"

Catwoman was stunned for a moment, then her heart trembled, she lowered her head and left in agreement.

As soon as she left, a new Catwoman appeared again, kneeling behind Thunder: "Your Majesty, then fight..."

"fighting..."

The grassland was foggy, and Lei Lei looked up at the sky. The light of the stars was receding, and it was the darkest time before dawn.

"Notify the general that he can start." He said this, with a flash of purple energy in his eyes: "But if the Light Church sends troops to defend that city, let the general take action slowly...it will take no more than two months to capture it.

That’s it.”

"Such a long time is enough for us to figure out the church's combat methods."

The ruler's broad vision determines the final strategic layout. In just one month since Thunder came to this world, he has figured out that the Emerald Empire is not something to be afraid of. However, the Church is different. If the Orcs fight against the Suzaku Continent in the future, they will be spread all over the human race.

The Kingdom, the Church with faith will be a powerful opponent.

The branch of the Jade Empire Church can serve as a tool for the Orcs to understand the Church.

"clear."

After Catwoman stepped back, Thunder raised his right hand. He looked at the red ring on his finger: "Beauty... little princess, this is really the best name."

Hongyan - the girl destined to become the king of the beasts, however... her time has not yet come...

This era - belongs to the green chao

——

In mid-October, Xia Han led his horse to a sea cliff with fallen leaves.

"On that sea cliff, you can hear the mermaid singing."

He recalled the words of passers-by, then tied his horse in the woods and walked to the sea cliff. This is a protruding corner of the coastline, and may be the end point of Xia Han's trip.

Coast, singing... these two reminder words took him to almost every possible seaside, but in the end he came to such an inconspicuous place.

The ocean stretched as far as the eye could see, and the cold wind carried a slight salty taste. What Xia Han saw before his eyes was such a vast expanse of sea and sky, but this was still a corner of the world, and mortals had no dignity in front of nature.

Xia Han stayed.

He stayed on the sea cliff for three days and three nights, but did not hear the mermaid's song.

【Wrong again?】

With this in mind, Xia Han led his horse and left. He bought a cloak in the nearest village, and when he was about to leave, he casually asked about the sea cliff.

"That sea cliff used to be a favorite place for many children, but two years ago I heard that a body was dumped there, so no one dared to go there."

The owner of the cloth shop counted the copper coins and answered with a smile: "I used to hear the mermaid singing there, but it hasn't happened again in the past two years."

Xia Han was stunned, and he returned to Haiya again.

He tied his horse in a leafy forest, took off his clothes at the beach, and dived into the cold water for several days to look for the body.

Of course - he found nothing. He came to the village again and asked about the mermaid.

Mermaids are a mysterious race living in the ocean. They control many creatures in the sea, but are very unfriendly to life on the ground. Some mermaids like to use their songs to lure human ships and fishermen out to sea, and then kill people and steal their belongings.

However, the mermaid on this sea cliff is not of this type. According to the villagers' description, there is no temptation to humans in this mermaid's song. She just likes to show off her singing voice.

"Show off?" Xia Han was a little concerned about this word.

"Yes, just to show off... if someone hums a few words, she will not be outdone and hum the same song, like a vindictive child."

"But in the past two years, I haven't seen her come out when others sing. Maybe she was scared away..."

"It would be a strange mermaid to be scared away by a corpse."

The villagers smiled widely and talked about mermaids.

Xia Han returned to the sea cliff again. This time he did not dive again and started singing.

The horse was tied up in the woods, and he sang alone, day after day...singing repeatedly and quietly.

However, after a while, he did not fish out the mermaid, but fished out some children. These children usually hide in the woods timidly, and he would scare them away every time he turned around.

Until one day, Xia Han was sitting on the ground eating after feeding the horse, and a girl came out with two buns on her head.

"Did you drop something?"

She asked: "You seem to be looking for something..."

Xia Han looked at her in surprise. He made no move to look for anything, but this girl could actually discover his purpose - she was very smart.

"Well, I'm looking for..." He smiled: "I'm looking for someone's cemetery."

The girl opened her eyes wide: "Cemetery...is your important person dead?"

Xia Han smiled bitterly: "Maybe it used to be important, maybe it's not important anymore..." He looked at the girl, with a persistent light flashing in his eyes: "But I want to find her cemetery, that's all..."

He seeks the swordless graveyard.

After witnessing her death two years ago, Xia Han was unable to witness Wu Jian's final destination due to inner turmoil. Afterwards, he always wanted to know where she was buried, but Wu Jing carved the address on the sword.

Xia Han didn't understand why he was obsessed with the location of a dead person's cemetery, but he couldn't let it go... If he didn't look for it, Xia Han felt that he might be missing something all his life.

But maybe he wasn't doing it for himself...

The Wu Jian he knew was an orphan without parents, and Xia Han was her only family and sustenance. If he didn't look for her, then who else in the world would look for her?

No one will go to see her, and the girl can only wander alone in the underworld, with no evidence of living... Isn't this a very sad thing?

"I know, you like her very much!"

The bun girl clapped her hands, looking like she suddenly understood.

Xia Han was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "You are very smart, I like her very much..."

He once thought that he only saw a shadow in Wu Jian. Even after she died, he would always doubt that - 'No one would go see her after she died.' Xia Han was obsessed with pursuing her cemetery because he was

Very similar to Wu Jian. Although he is still alive, he has no relatives in the world.

But when Xia Han is thinking about this, does it also prove that he likes Wu Jian very much?

Even if the reason is just that the memory shows a more beautiful color than reality in time, there is no doubt that Xia Han likes Wu Jian very much at this moment.

She was the only one in the world who would make him search so hard.

"That's great, I like it too..." The bun girl looked happy.

"Um?"

Xia Han wonders, does she know Wu Jian? This is impossible...

"Ah..." The girl's face turned red as if she realized she had said the wrong thing.

"I mean..." She looked at Xia Han sitting on the ground, with the golden autumn leaves surrounding him, and there was a very noble feeling in her eyes: "I like you too... No,

Are you Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

Xia Han's smile paused.

"You sing so beautifully and you look so beautiful...are you Her Royal Highness?"

The girl asked again, her eyes shining.

Xia Han lowered his head and looked at himself in men's clothing, and his calm heart suddenly roared: Is there any mistake? Even if a man is dressed as a girl, he will be regarded as a girl!!

This scene is even more extreme than it was a few years ago. Other people's children tend to become more handsome as they grow older, but Xia Han deviates from the ways of men as he grows older... It's not that he doesn't want to become a handsome elf, but Wu Jing lets him go

His movements were so swift that Xia Han worried that someone was secretly watching him.

But now... Xia Han has to find a way to dispel Bao Zi's doubts - if she can confirm her identity, the neighborhood will be lively.

So he Shi Shiran stood up and said, "Wait a moment."

Xia Han walked behind the tree, only his shoulders were vaguely exposed, and he didn't know what he had done.

"That's it."

After a while, he came back and asked the bun girl to walk over.

The girl bent behind the tree to take a look without knowing why, and then let out a scream. "Yes, I'm sorry!" She blushed and apologized to Xia Han, then covered her face and ran away in a hurry.

The matter is resolved.

After that, although there were still children listening to the song in hiding, no one came out to say hello to Xia Han.

He continues to seduce the mermaid.

The Emerald Empire is raging at war, but the prince is singing on a remote sea cliff - if the world knew this scene... would they find it ironic?

Time flies by...

In November 998 of the bimonthly calendar, Wind City fell, and in the same month, the Church of Light fell.

I don’t know if Xia Han’s arrival caused a slight deviation in history. The King and Queen of the Jade Empire issued an escape order in October in advance. The result of this order was that the army’s defense was disrupted due to chaos and suspicion.

Huge shake, in November, Gale City fell, Xia Ming and Ji Yun both died

At the same time, the imperial princess Xia Yun woke up from a two-month slumber.
