The night sky was shrouded in darkness that could not be wiped away.
A huge fire rose to the sky, signifying the end of the Agnes family.
Su Siao carried Tang Ling on his back and walked forward step by step. He seemed a little tired as he stuffed vicious beast meat into Tang Ling's mouth and into his own.
He wanted to say something, but he could not.
Tang Ling's eyes were half-closed as he rested his head on Su Siao's shoulder. He was too weak to speak.
"I didn't take enough, but one shouldn't be greedy." Su Siao patted his backpack as if he had found a topic to talk about.
He was saying that he had taken too little from the Agnes family's storeroom.
Was it too little? Actually, it was quite a lot. The crystals and vicious beast meat filled the entire bag.
"Yeah, I'm late," said Su Siao.
"It's fine." Tang Ling's words were vague. How weak was he? A handful of Level 3 vicious beast meat did not seem like he had recovered at all.
Instead, the pain in his body made it harder for Tang Ling to speak.
However, he had to tell Su Siao that it was fine. It was really fine.
"What do you mean by fine? What if you died a second later? How am I going to explain this to your father? "There was no need to hide anymore. Tang Ling must know everything.
Su Siao was not a sensitive person, but everything that Tang Ling did at Aber's place made him notice something.
Su Siao had used his sixth sense to check the note, and it contained the secret of Tang Ling's identity.
Tang Ling's curiosity had always been exuberant, but he showed obvious rejection and disgust towards the secret.
What else could it mean?
As expected, when Su Siao mentioned his father, Tang Ling did not respond at all. He did not even make the slightest movement.
Su Siao lowered his head and stuffed another handful of vicious beast meat into Tang Ling's mouth.
He was careless, so he did not think about Tang Ling's pain. All he wanted was for Tang Ling to recover faster.
"I'm going to fight. That Shadow brought a small team here. Ah Bing is in danger, and many others are. They've broken the balance of the battle. I have to fight. "Su Siao strode forward while Tang Ling's head shook up and down.
"Hey …" Tang Ling asked. His hand that was on Su Siao's arm pressed a little and touched Su Siao.
"I'm fine. The blood is someone else's. Now, I'm a true rank 5 Purple Moon Warrior with all the earth element talents. Su Siao sounded a little delighted as he turned around to Tang Ling with a smug expression.
"Do you know what is Omnipotence? It's like every one of them has branches. Take the water element for example. It has many branches. Clyne only has one branch of the ice element. "
"My earth element talent can be used for both offense and defense. It's just that I'm missing an important part of the earth element, the ability to run. I'm talking about burrowing into the ground."
Tang Ling did not say anything but listened attentively.
After a while, he reluctantly asked, "What about them?"
"It's hard to avoid death. But we won, and Abing and the rest survived. "
"After this, they will lay low for a period of time, waiting for you to grow."
"When the time comes, all you have to do is wave your arm, and all the heroes of the world will gather. Don't you feel good about that?"
"Do you know there's a list of names, and then …" Su Siao seemed to be a little excited as he could not stop talking about it.
Tang Ling felt a stab of pain in his heart as he mustered all his strength to say, "Don't wait."
Su Siao stopped right away and turned around to Tang Ling. His eyes seemed to be suppressing the endless rage, but it eventually turned into a deep sense of helplessness.
"Don't explain it to me. When he grows up, he will hear all kinds of things about me, good and bad. He might even know he has an older half-brother."
"Tell me, if he's like me, will he forgive me?" Tang Feng looked at Su Siao with anticipation in his eyes.
"If he's like you, I don't think …" Su Siao was being honest.
"Then don't explain it to this little bastard! If he's my son, he'll understand me. If he can't understand me, then he's not me … "As Tang Feng spoke, he suddenly laughed. The baby on the little bed was chasing after a bird outside the window with his eyes. He was laughing and chirping by himself. How could he be mad at him now?
"You really don't want to explain?" Su Siao was actually very stubborn.
"I don't want to explain." Tang Feng didn't act childishly anymore. He was very serious. His eyes also fell on the bird, and then he said, "It's because he carries my hope, so he's destined to walk the same path as me."
"If he walks the same path as me, he'll eventually see things from my perspective. He'll understand what's right and what's wrong. He'll understand every choice I make after all the troubles and troubles, and he'll understand me.
"Of course, if he doesn't walk the same path as me, he'll hate me. Only by hating me can he be at ease and live a normal life. Understand? "Tang Feng hugged the baby on the bed and rubbed his face with his stubble.
The delicate-looking baby was unwilling. He tried to push his father's face away with his little hands, but Tang Feng resisted.
Tang Feng competed with him, then laughed and hugged him tightly.
"I don't understand." Su Siao really did not understand.
"You don't have to. He's my son, so I want him to understand. I don't want other people to explain it to me. This is the only mark I've left on him as a father.
I feel a little lonely if I can't grow up with him. "Tang Feng smiled, but no one knew how serious he was.
Now that Su Siao thought about it, he seemed to understand the meaning of the phrase "only mark" a little.
Tang Feng was really selfish to his son.
He wanted his son to listen to all the things he did, to think about it, to analyze it, to understand it, and to walk the same path as him. In the end, his son would understand him, become him, and even surpass him.
Tang Feng has always been a schemer.
But what is this? Is he trying to make things difficult for me? Why are you trying to make things difficult for me?!
Su Siao pouted and said, "I'm almost done. I can run now."
What kind of weird sentence is that? Tang Ling also wanted to pout.
Then, Su Siao started to run.
Accompanied by the wind, he ran past the alleyway where he came from. The alleyway was stained with blood and broken walls.
He ran past the place where the half-zombies fought. The night wind was chilly, and it was a mess. The half-zombies and Dragon Army warriors who fought to the end could finally return with peace of mind.
He ran past Glory Square. The place that held the first memories of the inner city was finally fixed in the aftermath of the war.
He ran past the inner city and reached Orston, Yu, and Christina's house.
He jumped over the inner city walls and entered the outer city.
The stone house that he once lived in, the delicious roasted meat, the flatbread, and the warm greetings …
Everything in Safety Sector No. 17 was retreating rapidly, and no one knew where the new journey would take them.
However, would the Hope Barrier have to wait for 10 years?
Tang Ling was not afraid because Su Siao's back was wide and his body reeked of smoke, which was soothing and sleepy.
"I've treated you as my father for a long time." Tang Ling's voice was soft. If he wanted to speak smoothly, he would have to use that soft voice.
The moment he spoke, his voice would be scattered by the wind.
Su Siao did not react at all. His face was stiff, and his nose twitched a little.
He did not seem to hear anything.
In his heart, he kept repeating the same thought. 'Will Tang Feng beat me up? Will he beat me up? '
Finally, he arrived in front of the giant wall of Safety Sector No. 17.
Su Siao sucked in a deep breath and leaped up the wall. Countless stairs formed from dust appeared under his feet, allowing him to smoothly climb to the top of the wall.
"Hah …" Standing at the top of the wall, Su Siao heaved a long sigh of relief.
Under the blurry Purple Moon, under the tall wall.
The area that used to be the settlement had quietly regained its vitality.
Ever since Tang Ling left, he had never returned. Now, everything that was reflected in his eyes was so familiar.
Look, the little hill covered with purple blinds.
Look, the ring of bushes and the hidden puddles after the rain.
Look, among the messy bushes, Tang Ling could point out many of the entrances.
Then, his eyes turned red because he saw a fire.
Because he saw a fire. He saw a group of people who seemed to be Wanderers. They had gathered together and started a fire to keep themselves warm and make food. In the middle of the crowd was a group of children who were laughing and playing.
"Nothing will live forever, so nothing will disappear forever, except for time. However, time also flows in the cycle of reincarnation. It has never changed, "Su Siao said.
"Then, what about my grandmother and my sister?" Tang Ling's body had recovered a little. Along the way, he ate a lot of vicious beast meat and it finally worked.
"They will live forever in your memory."
"What if I'm gone?"
"Then they will live in the heart of your inheritor."
"What if they are eventually forgotten?"
"That moment of time will record them. They were brought to the deepest part of the universe, and one day, they will return."
"Are you lying to a child?"
"You can't prove that they won't return, can you? We are just specks of dust in time. "
Su Siao then laughed out loud. He jumped down from the high wall and sprinted through the bushes of the settlement, scaring the Drifters with their mouths agape.
Tang Ling seemed to have recovered his strength as he suddenly turned around and said loudly, "70 meters ahead, the second last bush. There's an entrance there, and it's safe underground."
The Drifter people looked at each other in confusion.
Su Siao carried Tang Ling on his back and sprinted towards the bushes.
At the edge of the bushes.
A tall and steady man was quietly watching Su Siao run through the bushes.
Behind him was the dense bushes, and behind the tall bushes, there were at least a hundred shadowy figures hiding.
Su Siao slowed down and stopped.
Then, he stopped, hesitated for a moment, and slowly walked forward.
"What's the matter?" Tang Ling also sensed danger.
Maybe because of his weakened state, Tang Ling's senses were a little weaker than before.
"It's not a big deal," Su Siao said calmly. He then added, "But you have to deal with it as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be endless trouble.
After all, your identity has been exposed. "
"…" Tang Ling was rendered speechless. He did not know why, but his rejection of the father that he had never met deepened.
Why did he have to drag so many people into this?! Even after so many years, why did he have to drag so many people into this?
As a matter of fact, Tang Ling could feel that Su Siao was not in a good state.
He actually used vicious beast meat to replenish his energy to run. How could he be in a good state?
**
Two minutes later.
At the edge of the bushes, Su Siao was facing a tall man in safari attire with a calm face and a thick beard.
Su Siao untied the rope around him and put Tang Ling down. He then placed the bag of vicious beast meat in front of Tang Ling.
"I didn't expect it to be you, Qi Jun." It was the first thing that came out of Su Siao's mouth.
He knew the man in front of him, so he called his name out loud.
"My mercenary group is the closest to this place, so I'm here," said the man named Qi Jun.
"So, you're already on the wanted list? The highest wanted list? "Su Siao raised a curious brow.
"Yes, the highest wanted list. You should know how important the young man behind you is. "Qi Jun drew a short stick from his back and shook it lightly, turning it into a long stick that was as long as his eyebrows.
"Yeah, I know." Su Siao removed his black cloak and tossed it aside. Underneath the cloak was a simple set of armor and a black greatsword that was as big as a door was hidden under the cloak. Su Siao held the black greatsword in his hand.
"You drew your sword? Are you serious?" Qi Jun's expression changed slightly, but as if he thought of something, he said, "Don't waste your energy anymore. I know the secret. Surrender and you'll have a chance to live. "
"No matter what, we used to fight side by side. My feelings for you are not fake."
Su Siao sighed at Qi Jun's words. He looked at the dark sky and said softly, "Qi Jun, have you ever regretted anything in your life?"
"Are you referring to the betrayal of the Dragon Army?" Qi Jun seemed to know what Su Siao was trying to ask.
Su Siao did not answer and stared at Qi Jun.
"He's dead, but the others have to live." Qi Jun sighed. "So, I don't regret it.
Let's fight, Su Siao. "He pointed the stick at Su Siao with both hands.
At the same time, more than a hundred people hiding in the bushes behind him stepped out and surrounded the area.
In short, it was extremely difficult to bypass them and break through into the dense forest.
"Qi Jun. I don't want to ask you if you regret betraying the Dragon Army. Based on my understanding of you, you have a lot of desires. How could you possibly regret betraying the Dragon Army? "As Su Siao spoke, he took something out from the pouch on his waist.
It was a tube of black potion. Even though it was black, it glowed faintly. Even in the dark night, it was hard to ignore.
This time, Qi Jun's expression really changed.
However, Su Siao did not give him the chance. He crushed the potion in his hand and poured it into his mouth, his aura exploding. "I actually want to ask you, have you ever regretted your arrogance?"
As he spoke, Su Siao swung his black greatsword at the people behind Qi Jun. A yellow light flowed out from the tip of the sword, and the ground started to shake violently. Some of the weaker ones even lost their footing.
At the same time, a not-so-tall mud wall appeared between Qi Jun and the people behind him, separating them.
"The wall is the boundary. Trespassers shall die! "
Su Siao swung his greatsword and pointed it at Qi Jun.
Qi Jun's face turned ugly. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but no words came out. Instead, he swung his Aye-mei Rod and swung it at Su Siao.
The Aye-mei Rod shone with a dazzling silver light and extended infinitely, aiming at Su Siao's chest.
Su Siao stabbed his greatsword into the ground. Mud walls rose from the ground along the silver light's trajectory, blocking the silver light's path.
Puk! Puk! Puk! Qi Jun roared and swung his Aye-mei Rod forward.
The silver light directly smashed through the earthen walls one after another.
At that moment, dust swirled around Su Siao as a thick layer of mud armor enveloped him.
Su Siao pulled his greatsword out from the ground and held it in front of him.
"Boom!" A violent sound rang out, and the entire ground trembled slightly.
Su Siao's lips curled into a wild smile as he blocked the silver light with his black greatsword.
Qi Jun's face turned pale. He spun his body around and retracted his arm. The silver light quickly retreated backward.
Su Siao reached out his hand and grabbed the silver light in the air.
Thus, a huge earth-colored hand really did appear in the void and grabbed the end of the silver light.
Layers of mud rose like a rising tide, spreading from the end of the silver light and enveloping Qi Jun.
Qi Jun's face darkened. He tossed his Aye-mei Rod away and both his hands shone with the same silver light. He shouted at the spreading mud, "Slash!"
Boom! The spreading mud was slashed by the silver light in Qi Jun's hand, but at the same time, Su Siao shouted, "Explode!"
As these words fell, the earthen wall that had been erected to block the silver light, the large hand that had grabbed Qi Jun's staff radiance, and the long earthen snake that had extended from the large hand and been severed by Qi Jun all exploded in an instant.
They transformed into fist-sized clumps of earth and shot towards the Qi army at an astonishing speed.
"Aaaargh!" Qi Jun roared in rage. The hunting suit he wore was torn apart, revealing his arm that was covered in silver bracelets.
He crossed his arms in front of his body and countless silver lights spread from his arms, wrapping his whole body.
The silver lights seemed to materialize and flowed like water, forming a close-fitting armor around his body.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The sound of mud clashing against each other echoed in Qi Jun's ears.
Qi Jun punched out, trying to break the mud, but around him, mud and dirt spread out from the ground, wrapping his legs.
All he could do was passively endure the mud clashing against him.
Gradually, his entire body was submerged in countless pieces of soil.
At that moment, Su Siao spread his legs, raised his hand, and shouted, "Retract!"
With a loud boom, the loose soil that covered the Qi army seemed to have been squeezed by two invisible hands. The soil mound, which was originally about ten meters wide and seven to eight meters tall, was suddenly compressed into an irregular, round soil ball with a diameter of slightly more than two meters.
Traces of blood slowly seeped out from the earthen ball.
Qi Jun's men behind the mud wall saw the scene. Some of his loyal men wanted to rush over, but they were pierced by the mud spikes that grew out of the wall.
Su Siao dragged his black greatsword and walked step by step towards the blood-soaked mud ball.
He lit a cigarette and seemed to be a little tired and sad. He said softly, "At the end of my peak, I finally comprehended this move. The highly compressed soil has infinite possibilities. I was going to use this technique against the councilmen of the Stardust Council. "
Su Siao then spat out a mouthful of smoke. The smoke was thick, so his expression was hidden. "But I really didn't expect to use it on you. My dear comrade. "
The moment his words subsided, he raised his greatsword and swung it down at the mud ball.
