On top of the city wall.
Yun Xiaoyao held a ring in his palm as well. Watching Yun Yang and Ji Lingxi walk further and further away, his expression was unusually complicated.
Yun Xiaoyao still stood at the top of the city wall until both of them could no longer be seen.
The night breeze blew, and soft sighs could be heard from the top of the city wall.
He closed his palm gently and gripped the ring tightly in his hand.
"I won't open this ring for the rest of my life."
Yun Xiaoyao murmured.
This was a gift from his son.
However, he did not want to know what was inside.
He only wanted to keep it in one piece.
In one piece.
…
Ji Lingxi and Yun Yang traveled eastward at a moderate pace. Of course, they were moving at their own maximum speed, but they were still much faster than an ordinary person.
Both of them sensed their Qi as they walked.
They had a clear feeling that as long as they wanted to, they could activate their mystical Qi with all their might and leave this world to enter the Bound of Universe!
The feeling grew clearer and clearer.
However, neither of them had the intention to do so.
The Four Seasons Tower was not destroyed yet!
Along the way, smoke could be seen rising from the chimneys. The people along the way wore smiles on their faces – it was a smile of complete relaxation and comfort.
Every time they approached a village, there would be children playing and chasing each other. Occasionally, they would even run onto the road.
There was an endless stream of pedestrians on the road as well, coming and going from all directions. There was no longer the fear and despair when they were besieged by the four countries. Everyone's faces were clearly filled with hope for a better life, as well as a sense of pride and confidence that came from being superior to others.
Occasionally, when the army passed by, the owner of the tea stall would greet the soldiers warmly to stop and have a sip of water, serving them with everything he had to express his sincerity. However, the army would not stop, so the owner could only wave and smile as they passed.
When the army passed by, the owner of the tea stall simply moved the tea stall to a larger space, almost to the point where it was placed on the main road. When the army passed by again, they simply carried trays and handed bowls of tea to them.
How can I not do it? This is my sincerity. The army has its rules, but I have to fulfill my sincerity!
"Lingxi, do you know that the biggest wish of the nine of us in this life is nothing more than to be able to witness such a sight!"
Yun Yang looked at the passersby contentedly, his heart filled with joy. He could not help slowing down his slow footsteps and stopping to watch the owner of the tea stall serve tea.
"Big Brother once said that. If there was a day when Yutang's people could eat their fill and wear clothes to protect them from the cold; they could walk with their heads held high and their chests puffed out to the outside world; they were proud and arrogant, neither servile nor overbearing … then the day of world unity would not be far away. This is the long-cherished wish of us brothers. For this goal, I have no regrets in life or death, no regrets in a hundred battles. "
"Now that Yutang is at peace, the unification of Yutang is only a matter of time away. Correspondingly, the people's confidence and self-esteem were all established. Yutang already has an indestructible backbone. As long as this backbone remains, our efforts will not be in vain. "
Yun Yang said in relief, "In other words, the goal that we've fought for our entire lives can be considered accomplished. I haven't let down my brothers' trust. When we meet again, I have the face to look them in the eye. I'm so happy and excited."
Ji Lingxi said respectfully, "All of you are remarkable people. You and my brother are, and so are the other brothers."
Yun Yang laughed. "You're right. Everyone is."
Ji Lingxi said, "You mean that you won't participate in Yutang's battle to unify Tianxuan in the future?"
"That's right." Yun Yang nodded and said, "The situation is clear now. Whether Supreme Cloud is involved or not, this world, Tianxuan Continent, will definitely be unified in Yutang's hands. It's only a matter of time! Supreme Cloud's existence is more of a spiritual function now. "
"Previously, what I saw on Yutang's people's faces was passion and indignation, but more of it was numb pain and despair. Now, every citizen's face is filled with pride and ambition! "
Yun Yang smiled and said, "This is the foundation of prosperity, the foundation that will never change!"
Ji Lingxi pondered and asked, "But … why would the other countries think that it's a good thing for Yutang to unify the world?"
"The human heart has always been biased. It's only right."
Yun Yang said faintly, "Unifying and being unified are not the same. Even if it's a war, it's hard to say who's right and who's wrong. It's just that everyone has their own standpoint. From an individual standpoint, everyone is right, including Han Sanhe, Zi Yuanlong, Qiu Jianhan, and me … All of our choices are right, they're all beneficial to the country's subjects and people! "
"From what I can see, most of the sovereigns would think that unifying the world in their hands is the best thing for the people. Firstly, it's a sense of ambition, a desire, a sense of accomplishment. At the same time, it's a sense of mission. They all feel that they can govern the world well, that they can benefit the people, and that they can shine for generations to come! "
Yun Yang's voice was slow.
"However, it has never been up to them to decide who is the true overlord of the world. Only the general trend of the world can decide, it can be concluded. "
"Yutang has been at the core of war for so many years. Millions of people have been oppressed and oppressed. Sacrifices are embedded in the hearts of almost every Yutang citizen. For a country like this, as long as we're given the slightest bit of hope, we can start a prairie fire! With this as the foundation, if we don't unify the world, who else is more qualified? "
"At the end of the day, it's still the same saying. There's no right or wrong in this world, there's only strength and weakness, only standpoint and choice!"
"We've grown step by step from being bullied by other countries to where we are now. The backbone that's grown in war is something that no one can beat, it can't be crushed."
Yun Yang was in high spirits as he looked at the roadside. As the weather gradually warmed up, there was already a layer of emerald green, swaying with the wind, filled with the air of life and exuberant vitality.
A young boy ran out from the roadside, blinking his big eyes when he saw Yun Yang and Ji Lingxi. "Uncle, do you want to come in for a cup of tea?"
Yun Yang laughed and patted the boy's head, saying, "Uncle isn't thirsty. What's your name?"
The boy was rather shy as he answered, "I'm San Huzi."
"Hmm, San Huzi …" Yun Yang chuckled, amused. "I guess you have two older brothers, Da Huzi and Er Huzi. Am I right? "
The boy looked at Yun Yang in surprise. "Uncle, how did you know? Are you a relative of ours? How do I know you? I have a very good memory! "
Ji Lingxi could not help giggling.
Yun Yang said, "Where are your two older brothers? Aren't they home? Why didn't they bring you along to play? "
The boy said excitedly, "Both of my older brothers have become generals! They're all great heroes. Mama said that they're with daddy, they're all great heroes, great generals! Huzi even offered incense and prayed for them during the Spring Festival this year! "
She was with her father.
Offering incense!
