The top of the snow-capped mountain is covered with snow, and the north wind is like a mad beast, carrying ice and snow and roaring angrily.
Hanba is wearing a fiery red feather robe and standing on the snow. He has an elegant temperament and is independent and aloof from the world.
"Sister, sister."
Xue Li, Zi Yue and Ye Shu ran over in the wind and snow.
"Eighteen human tribes have formed a coalition army and are at the foot of the mountain. They demand that we sacrifice our sister to appease the wrath of heaven and earth."
Xueli's face turned red with anger as she reported the situation to Hanba.
"This is too much, Chief. Let's kill them all!"
Ye Shu's eyes flashed with ferocity, and his iron-like blue-gray chest shone with a metallic luster in the wind and snow.
Hanba looked into the distance without saying a word.
Three years ago, during the great war between humans and gods, Hanba's master, Hou, opened a passage to the upper world for the selfish interests of his clan.
A man holding the Human Emperor Sword took advantage of the tired Hou and dealt him a fatal blow.
However, the cultivation level of the Hou has already exceeded the limit of this world. Even if the man takes advantage of his rest and launches a surprise attack, he can only die together with the Hou.
And this man is her husband and the father of her daughter.
"Where's Tiaotiao?"
Hanba did not answer Ye Shu, but turned to Xueli.
"Tiaotiao is very well behaved. He knows that the adults are very busy right now, so he is playing with his toys in the cave."
When talking about Tiao Tiao, Xue Li's face was full of pampering and pride.
"Tiaotiao is amazing. She's only two years old, but she's already psychic. She can even sense the residual spirits of the four fierce beasts. She's sure to become an excellent clan leader in the future."
Thinking of Tiaotiao, Hanba's eyes were filled with tenderness.
She then turned to Ye Shu and said, "Tell them to give me three days. After three days, I will go with them."
"Sister (clan leader), what did you say?"
Xueli and Yeshu screamed together.
Hanba smiled tiredly: "Can we kill them all now?"
"The war between gods and demons lasted for thirty years. Finally, the Qilin was killed and peace was achieved."
"But in the next three years, we exhausted all our spiritual energy in order to close the passage created by the Qilin and create the divine stone."
"The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is depleting, and disasters are constantly happening in the human world. The spiritual energy we have depleted can no longer be replenished."
Hanba looked at Ye Shu, but Ye Shu avoided her gaze.
"Right now, we only have a slight physical advantage over these people."
"If we fight them, at most both sides will suffer losses, which is something the Human Emperor does not want to see."
"The only way is to sacrifice me, to appease their anger and bring peace between humans and the gods."
"But what about Tiaotiao? She's still so young."
Xueli tried to use Tiaotiao to change Hanba's decision.
"I'll take care of Tiaotiao for the next three days."
Hanba's voice was low, and his eyes were filled with endless attachment and reluctance.
…
"Mom, Tiaotiao doesn't want to sleep."
Three days later, in a hidden underground palace deep in the snow-capped mountains, Hanba carefully carried Tiaotiao into a cave.
"Be good, Tiaotiao. Mommy has something important to do. Go to sleep. When Tiaotiao wakes up, Mommy will come and pick him up."
"When Tiaotiao wakes up, will mommy make lots of delicious food for him?"
Jump to put forward conditions.
"Yes, Mommy will bring Tiaotiao the best food in the world."
Hanba gently patted Tiaotiao's little belly and put Tiaotiao's favorite toy doll and stone tiger in Tiaotiao's hands.
He also placed the bag she usually used to drink milk next to her.
Then he hummed a little tune and used all his strength to gently stick a talisman on Tiao Tiao's forehead.
Although Tiaotiao felt that something was wrong with his mother today and didn't want to close his eyes.
But she still couldn't resist the power of the spell, and became more and more sleepy. After yawning, her little eyes slowly closed.
"elder sister……"
Xue Li on the side was crying uncontrollably.
She knew that once Tiaotiao fell asleep, she would be separated from Hanba forever.
The day came when the mother and daughter would never see each other again.
Why would those ignorant human tribes force their victorious heroes to death?
Sister, you are clearly the savior of this world!
And her husband is also a hero of mankind.
However, when disaster struck, the priests of the human tribes still blamed all the sins on her.
She obviously sacrificed the most!
This is not fair!
"Snow Li, don't cry."
Hanba gently wiped away Xueli's tears.
"This underground palace contains the most important divine stone, as well as all the last spiritual stones in the world. Tiaotiao will sleep here for ten thousand years."
"Ten thousand years from now, when the seal loosens, Tiaotiao will become the world's strongest guardian."
"And I will meet her in another form."
"But, were you still you at that time?"
Xueli sobbed, "You will have a new identity, a new life, a new man and a new child."
"No."
Hanba said firmly: "I cast a curse on myself."
"No matter when or where, as long as they are my reincarnations, you cannot touch any other children besides Tiao Tiao, nor can you have sex with any other men until you recognize Tiao Tiao."
“Sister, you…”
Xueli's face turned pale.
This is ten thousand years. For Tiaotiao, my sister will be alone, lonely and alone for these ten thousand years.
What a horrible curse!
A full ten thousand years!
"It's okay, Sydney."
Hanba said: "After I go down the mountain, you will be the new leader of the tribe. You must take your tribe away from here and live in seclusion in a new place."
"You must protect the sacred stone for generations to come, and Tiaotiao as well. She is the last resort for this world."
"elder sister……"
Xueli's face was filled with tears: "I can't do it. I can't do it well."
"You can do it."
Hanba held her shoulders and said, "You must be able to do it too."
"For the Human Emperor Clan, for the Ancient Zombie Clan, for Tiaotiao, and for this world."
“You have to do it!”
She took one last look at Tiao Tiao, kissed her little face with endless affection, then resolutely left the underground palace and closed the door.
She looked at the firelight below the mountain and said slowly, "It's time."
At the foot of the mountain, it is the end of an era and the beginning of a new one.
Ten thousand years is just a moment compared to a mother's deep love for her child.
Ten thousand years, just in a day and night!
