Jiang Kaixu's heart was filled with deep uneasiness and worry. He scanned the city calmly, and behind the apparent prosperity, he saw hidden dangers looming.
Yechin once tried to realize such an ideal, that is, a utopia where humans and animals coexist harmoniously, even though the country is small. However, his attempt ended in failure, and he even paid the highest price - his own life. This makes Jiang Kaixu full of confusion and suspicion about Ye Ning's behavior. He is always alert to the potential dangers that this seemingly beautiful world may bring.
More importantly, his personal experience left him with deep doubts about the goals of the experiment. For fifteen years, he was imprisoned by monsters and suffered endless torture. During those days, he developed a deep fear and hostility towards monsters. But now that he saw them entering human society, Jiang Kaixu felt extremely uneasy.
He looked at the children playing and playing. Their laughter was pure and bright, full of expectations for the future. It's a pity that they don't know how many contradictions and crises are hidden under this seemingly peaceful surface. He firmly believes that irreconcilable conflicts between different races will break out one day, and the results will only be more tragic.
Jiang Kaixu clenched his fists and established firm determination. Although Ye Ning's ideals are contagious, he cannot ignore the potential dangers. What he has to do is to stay vigilant and prepare for possible storms. No matter what difficulties await him ahead, he will face them bravely because he believes in true peace, not false appearances.
Jiang Kaixu's thoughts surged, and he realized that Ye Ning had enough power to protect the community and even fight against any internal dissatisfaction. However, he also knows that force is not omnipotent. What will happen when a more powerful threat appears?
He looked at the bats flying happily among the crowd and the badgers running small shops on the street. They seemed carefree and enjoying life just like humans. However, a deep sense of vigilance arose in his heart. Is it possible that among these animals that coexist with humans, there are monsters that have not yet awakened? Are those unknown threats waiting in the shadows for the right time?
Jiang Kaixu decided to face this challenge bravely. He knew that he could not have as much power as Ye Ning, nor could he use force to change his policies. But he can do his part to protect this city and the people he holds dear.
Jiang Kaixu secretly made up his mind and decided to speak with facts. In the days to come, he would actively participate in monitoring these animals, especially those monsters that may be potential threats. He will always be vigilant and pay attention to their every move to prevent them from bringing any danger to the city.
Although the challenges may be difficult, Jiang Kaixu is determined. He knew that he needed to find some evidence to prevent possible crises, defend the city he had begun to love, and even overthrow Ye Ning's theories and policies. He wants Ye Ning to realize that fighting is the only way out, that conflicts cannot be resolved, and that only the only race can survive better! Humans have not developed a symbiotic relationship with any living thing!
They each had their own thoughts, and soon it was time to leave. Ye Ning settled Zhou Chen and asked him to stay in a hotel first, while he and Jiang Kaixu went to hold a meeting about everything Jiang Kaixu had seen in the past ten years.
With a heavy heart, Ye Ning led Jiang Kaixu into Tiancheng's high-level conference room. Jiang Kaixu, the commander who had been imprisoned by the evil monster for fifteen years, finally returned to the place he was once familiar with. His eyes roamed the room, and every detail and every corner seemed familiar, yet it seemed like he was somewhere in ancient times. These familiar yet slightly unfamiliar scenes made Jiang Kaixu's heart instantly overwhelmed by the warmth and changes of Tiancheng.
When he walked through the door of the conference room, people inside noticed him almost immediately. Their eyes were full of shock, concern and joy. For a time, enthusiastic greetings and inquiries could be heard endlessly, as if everyone wanted to make up for the past time for Jiang Kaixu and bring him a touch of human warmth.
"Jiang Kaixu, you are finally back." Someone shouted happily. Some people stepped forward, held his hands tightly, felt the temperature, and confirmed that this was not a dream. Jiang Kaixu felt more than just their concern
and enthusiasm, and more importantly, a long-lost sense of belonging. This feeling made Jiang Kaixu's heart melt, and he finally felt the true love and warmth of the world again.
After the warm greetings and affectionate memories, the atmosphere in the conference room became slightly quiet, and all eyes were focused on the large wooden conference table. The brown chair backs are neatly placed, and each position has its own authority and story. Under the light in the room, the documents, maps and various instruments and equipment on the table looked so solemn.
As everyone slowly sat down, an oppressive tension filled the conference room. Yu Xuannao, the leader of Tiancheng, an imposing man with countless honors and missions behind him, slowly stood up. His gaze penetrated the entire conference room, as if he could see into everyone's heart.
"First of all, we want to thank Ye Ning," Yu Xuannao's voice was firm and powerful, as if it struck everyone's heart, "It is precisely because he was not afraid and took great risks to escape from the dangerous situation in the Western Continent. The area rescued Jiang Kaixu."
After speaking, the entire conference room burst into thunderous applause. Every round of applause is an affirmation of Ye Ning's courage and appreciation of his achievements. The sound lasted for a while, and it wasn't until Yu Xuanyao stood up again that the applause gradually dissipated.
"Next," Yu Xuannao said slowly, with expectation and respect in his voice, "Let Jiang Kaixu tell me what he went through when he was missing for fifteen years."
All eyes turned to Jiang Kaixu again, and every breath he took became the focus of the scene. He stood up slowly, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, but more of determination and courage. He was ready to begin his fifteen-year long story.
Jiang Kaixu stood there, his body looking a little thin, but his eyes were extremely firm. His voice was not loud, but it was clear to the ears, and every word seemed to have a ring to it. He began to talk about his fifteen years of experience, his encounters, and his persistence, like a thrilling adventure epic.
Mentioning the monster named Lion King, Jiang Kaixu's hands clenched fists unconsciously. He remembered that lion-like beast, which took away his freedom and his youth. He was locked in a dark cave, which was a world of monsters and beasts without the dignity and peace that humans should have. He suffered the punishment of the monsters. They beat him arbitrarily with their sharp claws and cold chains, and he didn't even have a chance to fight back. But every time he gritted his teeth and endured it silently.
He didn't give up. He used his wisdom to mediate in the demon's territory. He observed the habits of monsters and beasts, looked for their patterns, and accumulated his understanding bit by bit. He waited for his opportunity, like a cheetah waiting for its prey, patiently and decisively. Finally, on a stormy night, he opened the door to freedom and began his escape of life and death.
Jiang Kaixu talked about his days in the wild. At that time, he had no place to live and could only spend every night in the wilderness, among the grass and rocks. He was lost alone during the day and lonely and scared at night. It was the most difficult moment in his life. He often needs to eat grass roots and tree bark to satisfy his hunger. Along the way, he can always see the tracking traces left by monsters behind him. However, even in the face of these, he never gave up hope.
Finally, he told everyone about the moment when he was rescued by Ye Ning. When he was about to starve to death, Ye Ning appeared. Like an angel, he redeemed his body and his soul. At that moment, he experienced the warmth of the world, and that love and redemption gave him new life.
After hearing Jiang Kaixu's story, everyone could not conceal their shock and admiration for him. They looked at this resolute leader with admiration in their hearts. His experience, his courage, and his persistence are worthy of everyone's deep admiration.
Wu Yu was sitting in the crowd. His originally handsome face now looked a little pale, and the look in his eyes was much darker. Whenever Jiang Kaixu mentioned the atrocities committed by the Lion King, the corners of Wu Yu's mouth twitched slightly unconsciously, and his palms began to sweat.
In the past, Wu Yu had high hopes for the Lion King. He once believed that the Lion King, as the leader among monsters, had extremely high wisdom and strength and could become a bridge between humans and monsters, reconcile the conflicts between the two races, and create a new era of peaceful coexistence. He firmly believes that the Lion King can make an important contribution to the cooperation and reconciliation between the two races.
offer. But now, after hearing Jiang Kaixu's horrific experiences, his heart was filled with regret and self-blame.
He began to question his own judgement. Could it be that his previous trust and expectations were wrong? Is the Lion really just a cold, heartless beast, unworthy of their trust and respect?
Wu Yu's fingers clenched the edge of the table tightly, and he was experiencing a fierce struggle in his heart. He once believed so strongly that the Lion King could become an intermediary between humans and monsters, but now he has paid the price for his mistakes. The guilt and self-blame in his heart were beyond words. Every word and every detail was like a sharp knife piercing his heart.
He didn't dare to look at Jiang Kaixu or look at other people's eyes. He knew very well that at this moment, he had become the sinner in everyone's hearts and the driving force behind this tragedy.
