Bai Yue stumbled up the city wall and saw Wu Jing lying on the dark ground.
His hands had disappeared, and blood gathered under his body. Only his face remained majestic and cold.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
For some reason, Bai Yue sat on the ground and started crying. She didn't dare to reach out and touch Wu Jing, so she could only cry at a loss.
"Useless guy."
Wujing opened his eyes and looked at his daughter indifferently: "You are just like your mother. Although you are strong on the outside, you are very fragile on the inside..."
"Why can't you be fragile?" Bai Yue burst into tears. She wiped them with her hands again and again: "Mother always said...Father, you will protect us..."
But in the end, he still failed to protect them.
Wujing's eyes looked at the sky, which was about to turn into a dark sky, and the stars were faintly visible.
"That stupid woman..." He said this, and then closed his eyes: "Bai Yue, your mother raised you too purely... This will make you strong, but it is also your most vulnerable place.
"
Pure - pure love, pure hate, although not stupid but not good at complex thinking, this kind of character is both paranoid and easy to go astray.
Wujing doesn't know the future, and he can't predict what Bai Yue's ending will be. But no matter who's life, he will encounter several wars, and the peace in this world never lasts long - in such a cruel and killing world, the more pure the
People are more likely to die.
One wrong step and it's death.
"You are like a leaf."
"leaf..."
"Yes, you are a fragile leaf. As long as there is no sun... you will not be able to go on the right path..." Wu Jing twitched the corner of his mouth. This was a smile Bai Yue had never seen before - only in dreams.
The father who appeared smiled: "So, I want you to chase someone..."
He asked Xiao Sheng to bring the package with the crown hidden, and then struggled to tell Bai Yue that he wanted her to take the crown and chase the child who left.
"If he takes it...then he's your sun."
"You can follow him, always follow him... No need to doubt, believe in him no matter what he does... In this way, you can..."
——You can always walk on the right path.
Before he could finish his sentence, Wujing finally closed his eyes.
"Father...Father!!"
Bai Yue approached Wu Jing tremblingly. She stretched out her hand and touched Wu Jing's face, crying: "Father, father! Don't die! You haven't told me yet... You haven't told me yet..."
"Mother...Mother, ugh...is she just a tool for you?"
no answer.
Bai Yue wiped away her tears hard, picked up the crown package and stood up. She turned around. Just when she was about to leave, she seemed to hear the sound of wind in her ears.
"Um..."
The small wind whispers calmly: "It's just a tool...but it is the most beautiful tool..."
At this moment, Bai Yue's tears burst out again.
She cried, hugging the package tightly and running forward. She stepped on the stones and fell heavily, but immediately bent her scraped knees and continued forward...without looking back.
Xiao Sheng and the old housekeeper stood on the city wall and looked at her back.
"I will protect the young lady." The knight said this, then bowed to the old butler and disappeared.
The white-haired butler turned around and looked outside the city alone. The green rushing in under the dark twilight was like waves and flames - this city could only be guarded by him, a hobbled old man, and countless knights.
"Lord City Lord..." He looked back at Wujing, who was lying dead on the ground. His cloudy eyes gradually became clear, reflecting his master's face.
The child who was squatting beside the manger and crying... finally showed his first smile.
That's enough...
For his whole life, it was enough to have this smile.
————
On the other side, Xia Han finally escaped from the chaotic city and headed north with a long sword.
He didn't have the joy of a winner, or he couldn't laugh: Wu Jing's last actions kept lingering in his mind, and he couldn't figure out why the monster saved him.
Before coming up with the answer, Xia Han had no choice but to stop on the road.
In front of him, there were some people wearing similar cloaks blocking the way.
"brat?"
It seemed like she had heard a female voice somewhere. When a person lifted his cloak - Xia Han discovered pointed ears and a familiar face.
"Hey, sister Bai Xue, long time no see."
His eyes narrowed, and then he greeted with a natural look, covering up his heart that was confused due to the lack of Jing.
"Sure enough, it's you... little guy!" The female elf Bai Xue, whose appearance has not changed at all, rushed over with gleaming eyes. She pulled off Xia Han's cloak and looked at his face, then hugged him vigorously in her arms: "
Where have you gone? It’s hard for us to find you!”
Xia Han was a little dizzy by the waves on her chest. He took the time to glance at Bai Xue's hand: the virgin ring was still there.
[This idiot is here to steal the child’s foster husband again.]
He couldn't help lamenting that this time was no better than a few years ago. Now Bai Xue had brought a group of companions here, and it was obvious that he was bound to win. Just coming out of the wolf's den was like a tiger's den - this was Xia Han's first feeling, the freedom he pursued,
Unattainable...
"Why are you here?" With a glimmer of hope, Xia Han broke away from Bai Xue's arms and looked at her companions: "Who are they?"
"They are the friends I brought here. We are going to bring you back to the Magic Empire." Bai Xue puffed up her chest and looked proud: "No one can keep you this time!"
If she is so confident, the elves under these cloaks must not be any weaker.
Xia Han started to have a headache... Although he didn't hate Bai Xue, being taken away as a child foster husband was still too much...
This woman has not forgotten him after several years. If Xia Han really goes back with her... With Bai Xue's strength, can the weak Xia Han still gain the initiative and freedom?
In fact, Xia Han seems to have lost his freedom now.
"Come, come, let's go!" Bai Xue couldn't wait to pick him up. She was tall and used the exact same posture as a few years ago: "This country is about to end, we'd better leave here as soon as possible."
Of course, these elves also saw that the Emerald Empire was coming to an end.
"Wait, wait a minute!"
Xia Han deftly jumped out of Bai Xue's arms - he was no longer the same person a few years ago, and he could resist now: "I have something to do."
He took out his sword and held the hilt.
"Stop!" Bai Xue's figure flashed, and she pressed the hilt of the sword with her hand, looking shocked: "Little guy, what do you want to do?"
Xia Han was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Don't worry, I just want to see this sword..."
With these elves as free bodyguards, Xia Han naturally wanted to confirm Wu Jian's graveyard first. This was his most important thing now. Even if he wanted to go to the Magic Empire, he had to do this first.
So, Xia Han pulled out the sword while the elves watched.
