Ling You was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Xie Zhao, the first half of the story you just told is not wrong, but she had no choice but to do what happened back then."
Xie Zhao quietly turned his head and stared at him.
Difficulties?
People all over the world love to use this word to modify the mistakes they have made.
It is not difficult to see that Ling You's face is a little ugly at this time, and a little... embarrassed.
But in the end, he raised his head and looked directly into Xie Zhao's eyes. For him, there was nothing wrong with telling others about that past.
"In the past, the reason why the 'Shaoguang Mace Immortal' fought against the Royal Zhaoge Imperial Army at Langya Pass was actually because they were coerced. That year, people from the Hanyong Army kidnapped me when I was two years old, and used This checks and balances Laojun Mountain.
The other party Fei Ge sent a message to Laojun Mountain. They had no other requirements. They only asked that the 'Shaoguang Sword Immortal' could appear at Langya Pass as scheduled on that day and block the pursuit of them for two sticks of incense.
——As long as I have two sticks of incense, if she agrees, Hanyong will return me to Laojun Mountain soon. "
Xie Zhao's eyebrows moved slightly.
......I see.
But even though there was a reason, it still couldn't change the fact that "Shaoguang Sword Immortal" betrayed Tianchen.
Xie Zhao looked at him quietly, then softly completed the sentence for him.
"So, she went."
Ling You was silent for a moment, word by word.
"Then she died."
Xie Zhao raised his eyebrows and shook his head slowly.
"No, this is impossible. A mere Shen Qi cannot kill the Shaoguang Sword Immortal. He was only in the Mahayana Mysterious Realm back then. Even if a hundred Shen Qi besieged him, he was not the Shaoguang Mace Immortal who had entered the Immortal Realm. 's opponent...even if the Forbidden Army soldiers are added to help, the 'Shaoguang Mace Immortal' is exhausted and defeated, and can calmly leave. They will never be able to keep her."
Xie Zhao's expression was calm, and there was no edge in his brows and words, as if he was just stating an objective fact.
She said thoughtfully: "And as far as I know, Shao Guang Mace Immortal was not injured in that battle. Not only that, but the generals who fought desperately against her suffered many casualties."
Ling You was silent for a moment, lowered his head, and his eyes fell on the pair of maces wrapped in soft cloth at his waist.
"Yes, she did not die in battle, and she was not injured that day - you are right, neither Shen Qi nor the Forbidden Army are her opponents. As promised, she successfully blocked the two Zhaoge Imperial Army forces. Incense stick.
But a few days later, just as I was being transported back to Tianchen, she committed suicide on Laojun Mountain. "
Han Changsheng was horrified.
"——What? Killed yourself? Why is that?"
Why?
Why else?
Of course... I apologize to the Southern Dynasty.
Xie Zhao was silent, and Langya closed the two sticks of incense. In exchange for Ling You's life, it also ruined Laojun Mountain's thousands of years of loyal and patriotic reputation and... "Shaoguang Mace Immortal" Leng Hanyan's life. Young life.
Ling or suddenly felt sad in his heart.
He turned his head to the side, seemingly speechless.
In the silence, it was Xie Zhao who spoke again.
She whispered: "Because I blame myself."
Han Changsheng was stunned.
Xie Zhao continued softly: "She is not only the most famous 'Shaoguang Mace Immortal' Leng Hanyan, but she is also a Tianchen person, and she is also a direct disciple raised by Wuwei General Xu Duo."
Who is General Wuwei?
Her eyes looked at a few birds passing by in the forest, and they didn't know what they were worried about.
Sometimes, some people, even though they may seem to have unlimited success in their lives, actually live less freely than a few birds and fireflies.
She looked at Han Changsheng's slightly startled young face, and suddenly felt a little envious of him, envious that his world was so simple.
Xie Zhao sighed softly.
"Don't you understand... Wuwei General Xu Duo is the former head of Laojun Mountain. General Xu fought to protect the Tianchen territory and the people of the Southern Dynasty all his life, and he guarded Tianchen for thirty years. In the northern border of Chen, he also died in Langya Pass in the northern border of Tianchen.
Seventeen years ago, the 'Shaoguang Mace Immortal' was forced to draw her mace at the Langya Pass where her fallen master fought to the death for life, and faced off against her compatriots... She couldn't get over the feeling in her heart afterwards. Road hurdles. "
——Therefore, she felt that she had deeply betrayed the loyalty of her mentor and the friendship of her old friend. After learning that Ling You had escaped safely...she committed suicide.
This time, Han Changsheng completely understood.
He secretly looked at Ling You's expression, thought for a while, and still couldn't help but cautiously said:
"But... if you put it this way, 'Shaoguang Mace Immortal' committed suicide and passed away. It seems that it may not have much connection with Shen Qi, Commander-in-Chief Shen... Commander-in-Chief Shen doesn't have much to do with it either. They can be regarded as your enemies in Laojunshan."
Ling You nodded.
"My enemy is definitely not Shen Qi. I went to look for him this time because I just wanted to know what happened that year. And... who were they ordered to pursue that year!"
He looked up at them with burning eyes.
"If those people hadn't kidnapped me and used it to coerce her, she wouldn't have fallen into such a dilemma and finally committed suicide. And the person Shen Qi and the others were chasing back then - was my real enemy.
The late emperor who issued the edict in the past has passed away for five years, and today the emperor is only eighteen years old. Seventeen years ago, he was only a one-year-old child. Now if I want to know the past, I can only start with the person in charge who appeared in Langya Pass in the past. "
Ling You's eyes quietly met Xie Zhao's eyes as clear as pool water.
"I know I'm as smart as you, so I should have wanted to ask just now. I just took my mood into consideration, so I didn't say anything.
That's right, if an ordinary child is kidnapped, it's not enough for the 'Shaoguang Mace Immortal' from Laojunshan, who is taught by a loyal and loyal master, to compromise his loyalty and reputation - only mothers in this world will lose their own flesh and blood. Reason, all-or-nothing. "
His expression was very calm, but a flash of pain flashed deep in his eyes.
"'Shaoguang Mace Immortal' Leng Hanyan is not my uncle, but... my biological mother."
Xie Zhao sighed lightly.
In fact, she had already had suspicions just now, feeling that the relationship between Ling You and "Shao Guang Mace Immortal" was more than just a master uncle and a master nephew.
It turns out that they are blood relatives, so it’s no wonder.
However, the world has never heard of the marriage of "Shao Guang Mace Immortal" Leng Hanyan. It turns out that she is already married and has children?
And Ling You... is actually her son.
Han Changsheng blankly moved his gaze from Ling You's face to his mace, which was wrapped in layers of soft cloth around his waist, making it difficult to see the true face of Lushan.
Then he pointed at that place with trembling fingertips, his expression as if he was in a dream.
"So...this thing is...?"
Ling You nodded slightly and placed his right hand unconsciously on one of the long maces.
"God..."
Han Changsheng murmured to himself: "I actually saw the unparalleled 'Shaoguang Unparalleled Mace'! This is simply, this is simply, this is simply too——"
In his excitement, his saliva got stuck, and he coughed repeatedly.
——Isn’t this incredible?
Come on someone!
Who will wake him up?
Is he dreaming?
——Fortunately, his wish came true soon.
Xie Zhao slapped him on the back mercilessly, then frowned coldly and said, "What are you crazy about? We are talking about serious things here, can you please be normal to me?"
