Siming burst into laughter and said, “Saddened?
What is he, after all?
Achai was rely a servant by birth.
He had no clan of his own, so he nad his country after himself, allowing this na to be passed down for three hundred years, to the point that even thousands of years later, people will know the three words ‘Tuyuhun’.”
“Even if future generations are unaware that this was actually the na of a humble slave, who once pointed at the stars in the sky and vowed to make countless people rember his na!”
“Why would he be saddened?
He would only feel that his work is done, and he would leave calmly.”
“Young man, do not underestimate those old fellows.”
The elder took out a liquor bing from his embrace, took a swig, and said softly:
“Besides, the descendants of Tuyuhun, his true bloodline, were hacked to death in a bloody disorder one hundred and eighteen years after his death, over a dispute for his uncle’s wife and daughter.
The political upheaval of Tuyuhun wiped out his lineage.
I rode a horse for seven days and seven nights, and by the ti I got there, there was no child left with his blood.”
“A hero’s descendants are not necessarily heroes as well.”
“The descendants of Tuyuhun will eventually turn into the very people he would have cleaved with his sword on sight back in his day.
Having exhausted all his heroic fervor and with the bloodline no longer existing, yet his reign recorded in the annals, Tuyuhun’s life was perfect.”
“Even if in later tis soone else aspires to unite the Thirty-six Tribes of the Western Regions, Tuyuhun will still be regarded as the original hero.”
“However, he did help you to complete the Tiger Roar Bone Forging Skills.”
“If there’s a chance, let the Western Regions be unified again.”
Li Guanyi wanted to say that such matters and achievents were too burdenso for him.
How could I possibly do it?
But he fell silent, simply clutching the King Seal and aiming it towards a blank space, saying, “Then, if there is a hero in the future, I will hand the King Seal to him, so he can unify the vast lands of the Western Regions.
And if there is no one in those lands worthy of carrying this fla…”
Clutching the King Seal, Li Guanyi rembered the overbearing figure he had just glimpsed and said:
“Let beco their Great Khan!”
Siming laughed heartily, so did Zu Wenyuan, but Siming just patted Li Guanyi’s shoulder emphatically, saying, “Not bad, not bad, ah hahahaha, you’ve learned to brag and bluster!
These four did not return with Li Guanyi.”
They were off to see Zu Wenyuan off.
The elder was the mastermind behind the Great Sacrifice Formation of the Chen Country.
Sneaking out this ti probably had already posed so problems.
Their thods could conceal for a day or two, but could not hold up for long.
After an extended period, it was inevitable they would be discovered.
The morning light began to shine, and Li Guanyi headed back to the city alone; he did not attempt the new cultivation technique.
General Xue would be the perfect subject for the Four Symbols Skills!
There was also that fiercely poisonous blood; with a sample, one could determine the nature of the poison afflicting oneself.
And there was the extent of the strength and traits of the Golden Muscle and Jade Bone.
As Li Guanyi crossed the stone bridge, planning out what he had to do, he suddenly rembered.
The power of the Green Bird Dharma Form was ever-renewing; perhaps it might be used to heal his Aunt’s wounds.
But then, since his Aunt and his mother were close, and his mother had made use of this Dharma Form in the past, perhaps his Aunt would instantly recognize the familiarity of this Form…
For so reason, Li Guanyi suddenly stopped in his tracks, feeling a sudden blockage in his heart.
The wind from Jiangnan was as usual.
He stood there, next to a woman dressed in brown clothing, carrying a bamboo winnowing basket filled with brown rice and smiling.
Next to her was a tiger-headed little boy pulling at her dress, calling her mother.
The young man halted his steps and gave way to let them pass.
Then he walked forward two steps.
The heavy blade fell to the ground, Li Guanyi opened his mouth; the pain and losses of his mother from his previous life and this life’s mother converged, even though he hadn’t felt it before.
But the scene he had just seen was like a knife to the heart, as if when one feels sorrow, the emotion cos in delayed waves.
It was like seeing the everyday occurrences in life that suddenly crash over you like a tide.
The corners of the youth’s mouth turned downwards.
Then he crouched against a wall, pressing his palm against his face and rubbing hard.
His palms were moist.
……
And just before this mont, when the Four Symbols converged, with the White Tiger and Red Dragon appearing simultaneously in the sky, in the distant Taihe Palace of Central State.
The Chi Xiao, which had been sealed for three hundred years,
cried out from within its sheath!
