"The life of the army … is not suitable for you. Also, you shouldn't pursue perfection in everything. In this world … how can there be so many perfect endings? Go, do whatever you want to do. Grandpa will always be here to support you. "Fan Wudi looked at Chu Mo and said softly," Don't worry about Grandpa. Grandpa is fine! You have done so much, and Grandpa has benefited from it. Now, who in Da Xia doesn't look up to me? "
Chu Mo looked at his grandfather, who was already a little old, and his heart ached slightly. He said, "I just want the people around me to live a better life."
"It's already very good!" Fan Wudi stood up, walked in front of Chu Mo, and patted Chu Mo's shoulder. "Grandpa's greatest achievement in this life is having a good grandson like you. Da Xia will definitely win this war! Even with the participation of the sects … we will still be victorious, because the Xia Kingdom also has the support of the sects! "
Fan Wudi continued, "Also, those sects don't dare to do as they please. Getting too involved in worldly affairs does not benefit them at all. Also, I heard that the world's top sect, the Flying Immortal … has even said that they will protect Da Xia! "
Chu Mo couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Grandpa, that's fake news that I released!"
"What?" Fan Wudi was stunned, and he looked at Chu Mo in confusion.
Chu Mo said, "It's like this …"
He then explained to the old man about their relationship with the Fairy Realm. Upon hearing his explanation, the old man was dumbfounded. He didn't expect his grandson to be so daring. He even dared to toy with a top-notch faction like the Fairy Realm!
"Aren't you afraid that they will cause trouble for you?" Fan Wudi's eyes showed some worry. Although he didn't know much about the world, the old man had lived for so many years, and his life experience was far from what Chu Mo could compare with.
"Right now … I'm like a louse that doesn't bite when there are too many, and I don't need to worry when there are too many debts." Chu Mo smiled and said, "It's not like I'm missing a sect. Anyway, based on my understanding of that woman, she's a proud woman, so she wouldn't bother to explain anything. In this way, Da Xia will have an additional layer of protection, and the interference from the outside world … will also be much lesser. "
Fan Wudi sighed and said, "What you're doing is equivalent to … taking on all the conflicts on yourself. From the perspective of the country, this is naturally the best, but from a personal perspective … Grandfather doesn't want you to take on too many risks."
For an old general who had been selfless his entire life to say such words, it could be considered to be the extreme.
Chu Mo smiled and said, "Don't worry, Grandpa. I will definitely protect myself. I also have feelings for Da Xia. No matter what, this is my motherland. I hope that Da Xia will recover. Besides … His Majesty has conferred me the title of King of Chu. "
"Yes, His Majesty is not unkind to our family, but … your heart is not here at all. Whether you are conferred the title of King or not … it doesn't matter to you. " Fan Wudi looked at Chu Mo and said, "According to what you've said, once those sects confirm that your master has left, they will definitely target you again. Do you have any plans?"
"Fighting them head-on … definitely won't work. I reckon that this time, those who target me will at least be at the level of Enlightened Mind or above. I'm definitely not a match for those people right now." Chu Mo smiled as he spoke, but there wasn't much worry on his face.
"Yes, an expert of that level can single-handedly decide the outcome of a war." Fan Wudi sighed and said, "In the past, those sects had very little relationship with the secular world. In recent years, they've become more and more excessive."
"If those sects want to survive, they can't completely separate from the secular world." Chu Mo said softly, "I believe that one day, the sects of this world will truly integrate into the secular world. At the same time, they will also have to abide by the various rules of the secular world."
"This is too difficult." Fan Wudi sighed.
"Therefore, I will work hard." Chu Mo looked at his grandfather and said, "This battle was a complete victory. Grandfather should be able to advance, right?"
Fan Wudi said, "I don't really care about these things."
"I have some immortal medicines here, Grandfather." Chu Mo looked at Fan Wudi and said, "If this time, the Emperor orders you to return to Yan Huang City, don't reject it. Go back and cultivate in seclusion for a few years. Your cultivation level can at least rise to the Enlightened Mind Realm! At that time, whether in terms of longevity or strength, you will have it all. Your grandson can rest assured. "
"In this world … are there really such immortal medicines? Can they be reaped without sowing? "The old master was a little doubtful.
"It's not reaping without sowing. Immortal medicines are like brewing wine …" Chu Mo smiled and said, "They say that wine is the essence of food. A jar of good wine must require a lot of food, right?"
Fan Wudi nodded. He knew a little about brewing wine.
"It's the same with immortal medicines. They are the essence of medicinal ingredients." Chu Mo said, "Grandfather's accumulation over the years is already enough. After taking these immortal medicines, you can quickly break through layer after layer of barriers."
Fan Wudi looked at Chu Mo, gratified. He suddenly thought of something and said, "You say … the Emperor will order me to return to the capital? Why? "
Chu Mo said, "What do you think, Grandfather? Not only will Grandfather return to Yan Huang City, I reckon that even I … will be summoned back very soon. And then … there will be a grand King conferral ceremony. The following battle … will have nothing to do with us grandfather and grandson. "
Fan Wudi was enlightened. "I understand … Great merit will shock the Emperor! If we continue to participate in this battle, I'm afraid that His Majesty will really feel uneasy … High prestige is a good thing, but too much prestige … isn't a good thing. "
"Grandfather understands?" Chu Mo asked.
"What's there not to understand? I'm also tired. I've been at the borders for so many years, and it's time to go back and enjoy myself. If the Emperor wants to summon me back, at least … he should give me the rank of General for three months, right? "The old man said with a smile. He did not take this matter to heart at all.
Such open-mindedness made Chu Mo sigh in his heart. The old man's life experience was really too rich. Ups and downs, he was probably used to all sorts of situations.
This was something that Wu Yu should learn.
Chu Mo had guessed correctly. Not long after the news of the annihilation of the Tiger Head Army reached the capital of Da Xia, Yan Huang City, an imperial edict came.
On the 23rd day after the annihilation of the Tiger Head Army.
The imperial edict from the palace arrived, summoning the old man, Fan Wudi, and Chu Mo back to Yan Huang City to await their reward.
At the same time, a general was sent to replace the old man.
This general made the old man frown, and also made Chu Mo a little annoyed.
Towards this general, and also towards the Emperor.
That was because the person who had come was the Third Prince who had been punished to go to the northern border, Xia Hao!
At that time, the Emperor had punished him to not return to Yan Huang City for 10 years. Now, just a few months had passed, and Xia Hao had been directly transferred here. Moreover, he was to replace the old man as the general here.
Although the old man's old subordinates did not say anything, but Chu Mo could see that they were all dissatisfied with Xia Hao's arrival!
Similarly, they did not like this Third Prince who was also a general!
