“We have the strongest power in the world behind us, and in our hands, we hold powerful forces that can probe the essence of this world.
Either one alone could dominate one side, yet, we choose to live under soone else’s roof.
It seems the Demon Clan people have forgotten, we are not helpless foreigners, but very powerful guests.
As long as we appeal to their emotions and…
forces, I believe most conditions, the Demon Clan people would accept.” Cheng Ziang said, clenching his fists.
Hearing his suggestion, Luo’er did not imdiately respond.
Instead, he lowered his head to think, then raised it to speak to him, “You’re tired, go and rest first.
I will take care of these matters.”
“Do you still plan to lower yourself to their level, to mingle with these people?
How could you govern well like that?” Cheng Ziang asked sowhat angrily.
“Ziang, we can’t just fall out with the Demon Clan people over sothing like this.
After all, no matter how powerful we are, we are essentially mortals.
In dealing with interpersonal relationships, it’s not about using great power and deterrence, but about communication between each other.
I will go and have a good talk with them about this matter; you don’t get too worked up either.” Luo’er said kindly, trying to pacify him.
“It seems you’ve grown used to this stable life, and that’s why you start to degrade, isn’t it?” Cheng Ziang asked.
“Ziang, be more respectful to Luo’er,” Tangmo, who was by the side and could not stand it any longer, stepped forward to rebuke, “Every day Luo’er has to handle a lot of interpersonal relationships and is busy for a long ti.
He does these things, is it only for the Demon Clan people, isn’t it for us as well?
You’re angry at the frontlines and take it out on Luo’er, do you think this is appropriate?
Are you the only one suffering at the front, Luo’er doesn’t suffer behind the scenes?”
“Just as you said,” Baiyue also couldn’t help but step forward and say, “If we move eastward, and if stopped by the Kyushu people and can’t go back, stuck in limbo, what should we do, have you thought about that?”
“Alright, enough, both of you,” Luo’er gestured for them to be quiet and then said earnestly to Cheng Ziang, “I know you dislike these thods of mine, and I understand the grievances you’ve encountered at the frontline, but as the Captain of the Advance Team, I must consider the entire team and cannot just do as I please and expect the Advance Team to follow suit.
I’ve already made such a mistake before, now I do not wish to repeat it, can you understand ?”
“Suit yourself…” Cheng Ziang said, lowering his head and pursing his lips.
In fact, he also understood Luo’er’s difficulties, which was exactly why he didn’t like being the Captain.
Witnessing the killing, he simply couldn’t harbor any good feelings for the Demon Clan people, and if Luo’er were to act recklessly, problems would definitely arise.
So, he was just speaking out of frustration, not really intending for Luo’er to carry it out imdiately.
“I understand your feelings, but at this stage, it’s still best we continue to observe.
If the Demon Clan people keep challenging our ethical boundaries, then we’ll consider the next steps, how about that?” Luo’er continued to ask.
“Mhm,” Cheng Ziang nodded, and then said apologetically, “I’m sorry for…
just now.”
“It’s okay,” Luo’er showed his signature smile and comforted softly, “I understand it all, there’s nothing you need to apologize to for.”
Looking at Luo’er’s smile, Cheng Ziang felt the urge to cry for a mont.
It seed like he had been holding back outside and finally received family’s comfort when he ca ho.
Luo’er had such magic, able to make even a straight-as-steel man like him unable to resist shedding tears.
Coming ho was right; having everything at ho was so much better than suffering outside.
Used to wandering outside, this was the first ti Cheng Ziang felt the ease of having family by his side.
“Right…” Fighting back tears, Cheng Ziang spoke with a sowhat hoarse voice, “There’s one more thing, that Yichuan Ying, she…”
“She’s okay, isn’t she?” Luo’er asked with concern.
“Like a Walking Dead…” Cheng Ziang sighed.
“She saw her brother die before her own eyes, so she…” Hu Daoke shrugged his shoulders and explained from the side.
“That’s understandable.” Luo’er nodded solemnly with an inevitable sigh.
“About Yichuan Ying, I think she is unlikely to be able to live in West Outer Heaven anymore,” Cheng Ziang said.
“How so?” Luo’er asked.
“Just like Old Hu said, she saw the Demon Clan people kill her own brother, do you think she can remain calm towards the Demon Clan people?” Cheng Ziang asked with a bitter smile.
“Yes, indeed…” Luo’er nodded in agreent.
“So, on the way back, I thought about it, and there are two places she could go,” Cheng Ziang said, “One is to follow us until the air fleet arrives, and then co back to the Western Continent with us.
The other, which I think is the best option for her, is to let her go ho, back to Yin State.”
“Returning to Yin State…” Luo’er fell into deep thought.
Seeing this, Baiyue stepped forward to explain, “Yichuan Ying’s family is part of the Yichuan Clan of Jiangzhou, a branch of the Yichuan Clan in Yin State.
Yin State has always hoped to rge with the Yichuan Clan of Jiangzhou, so letting her return to Yin State should be no issue from their side.”
“I see.” Luo’er nodded in understanding.
“What a pity for Yichuan Long,” Cheng Ziang said, “Yin State had always hoped he would return to serve as an official, but he insisted on staying with the Yichuan Clan of Jiangzhou, staying in West Outer Heaven, and in the end, t such a fate.” With that, he let out another sigh.
“What do you think we should do then?” Luo’er looked at him and asked.
“My wish is for Yichuan Ying to return to Yin State.
After all, she has a large clan to return to.
Bringing her back to the Western Continent might seem like taking her ho, but for her, it’s truly unfair because the Western Continent isn’t her ho,” Cheng Ziang said.
“And we’ve already taken in a lot of girls.
Let’s stop here, Luo’er…” Tangmo stepped forward, his face clouded with gloom.
“Let’s arrange it that way then.
Let’s figure out a way to send her ho and spare her from staying in this place of sorrow,” Luo’er considered and then suggested.
“To tell you the truth, I feel that I’ve let the Yichuan siblings down, failing both the brother’s entrustnt and the sister’s expectations,” Cheng Ziang said with a tone of deep regret.
“Don’t say that.
We can’t change what has already happened.
If you want to make it up to her, let’s just settle her well.
I’ll help you too,” Luo’er patted him on the shoulder, offering comfort.
The day after returning to Big South East Peace, Luo’er and Cheng Ziang found Boyan, who had co for trade, on the streets.
The frontlines were locked down due to an epidemic, leaving him stranded in the city for the ti being.
“Well, what brings the two Manor Lords here?” Boyan greeted them politely upon seeing them.
“Boyan, can we trust you?” Cheng Ziang got straight to the point.
“My Lords, what are you saying?
If there’s anything you need for, please feel free to ask,” Boyan replied.
“We need a favor from you.
After you’ve handled it, we’ll compensate you,” Cheng Ziang said.
“My Lords are too kind.
What I have achieved today is all thanks to the Lords, so there’s no need to ntion any compensation again,” Boyan replied with a smile.
“One thing at a ti.
This matter is very important to us, so I hope you’ll take it to heart,” Cheng Ziang waved his hand and insisted.
“No problem.
Just give the word, and I shall comply,” Boyan said, scratching his head before asking, “I wonder what the Lords would like…”
“Do you know Yichuan Ying?” Cheng Ziang asked.
“Yichuan Ying…Yichuan…” Upon hearing this, Boyan’s eyes widened, “Could it be, the young Miss of the Yichuan Clan?”
“Exactly,” Cheng Ziang nodded.
“Do the Lords want to kidnap her?” Boyan asked in astonishnt.
“Don’t jump to wild conclusions,” Cheng Ziang waved his hands and said with a wry smile, “She’s already with us.
I’ve co to you, because there’s sothing else I’d like to entrust you with.”
“Then, what would the Lords like to do?” Boyan asked, puzzled.
“I’d like you to escort Yichuan Ying back to Yin State.
Can you do that?” Cheng Ziang asked.
“To Yin State, but she is a mber of the Yichuan Clan of Jiangzhou!” Boyan exclaid in surprise.
