Chapter 489 End
Duan Feng looked at Yu Cang, with only determination in his eyes.
From the day he was born, the people around him had woven a future called a myth for him.
But this future does not belong to him. Although he wants to become a legend, it is definitely not in this way.
However, as a son of the Duan family, he had no second choice. He could only follow the path given to him by the family and move forward. Even if he struggled and broke free, it would be of no avail.
Duan Feng is not a loner who is ignorant of the world. At least in the past six months, he has been collecting information about Cang intentionally or unintentionally.
Coupled with some omens he saw within the Duan family, he understood one thing very clearly - the Duan family was on the verge of collapse.
He remained silent about this outcome.
As far as I can remember, I don’t know when it started, but the Duan family was no longer a “home”.
In this dark family, he could only go alone to fulfill Duan Zhang's requests one by one.
What's more, everything the Duan family did in secret...every one of them was contrary to the simple emotions in the young man's heart.
He has no feelings for this family. The collapse of the Duan family is actually a good thing for him, as it means the end of his constraints.
But...his last name is Duan after all.
Even though he had never been willing to use the resources from the Duan family, he had to admit that from childhood to adulthood, the card decks he used, the resources consumed in training, the venues occupied, the money spent...
What's more, in recent times, he has taken the initiative to use so many resources of the Duan family in order to defeat Yu Cang and bring back A Qiu.
He is inseparable from the Duan family.
The nutrients that had been plundered through evil means had already been injected into his body and had become one with him as he grew. So even though Yu Cang had emphasized that this matter had nothing to do with him and had expressed his willingness to protect him, he didn't have to bear any price for it—
But he still chose this path.
Even though he had no choice and could not escape in the past, there was no room for excuses for what had happened. He, Duan Feng... was destined to become a legend, so how could he lack this sense of responsibility?
From the moment he stood by and watched silently, he had already taken part in the crimes committed by the Duan family - he admitted it!
Not only Cang, but along the way, the resources he used were stained with the blood and tears of countless families, which were too numerous to count. Therefore, he did not expect that he could pay it off with just a simple kneeling.
But it doesn’t matter, he still has himself - he is confident that the name Duan Feng is enough to repay him.
He will fight to the death for Yan Country!
The border is not as peaceful as the interior of Yan Country... Casualties are common there, not to mention that now that the Nightmare Border has been discovered, even the guardians of the country may be sacrificed there.
He didn't know if he could survive there, but whether he died in battle or achieved great deeds...it would surely be enough to atone for his sins.
And as long as he lives, he will become a legend.
Duan Feng's heart was extremely determined.
This time, he will no longer be bound by his family, and there will be no interference from others. He can finally... walk his own path with Aqiu.
This is exactly what Aqiu said before coming here, "I've been looking forward to it for a long time."
Compared to others, he owes Yu Cang more.
He had to admit that Yu Cang was definitely a rare genius in a thousand years, and he was more worthy of the title of "Mythical Figure" than himself.
Because he wasted a year of Yu Cang's time... Can Yu Cang's year be the same as an ordinary person's year?
Look at what Yu Cang has created in the past year. He wasted Yu Cang's time, and I'm afraid he can't make up for it even if he dies in battle.
The name Duan Feng was enough to repay others, but in front of Yu Cang, he knew he was not worthy.
As for Yu Cang, he probably didn't need to repay the debt... Therefore, only by becoming a legend would he be qualified to make amends for what happened back then.
Looking into Yu Cang's eyes, Duan Feng became more determined.
"No... Feng'er, get up, get up!!"
Duan Zhang's hoarse voice came from behind, but Duan Feng remained unmoved.
Duan Zhang...Father, this ending is probably not what you wanted.
I'm so glad you didn't get what you wanted.
Listen to this voice...it turns out you have feelings too.
Unfortunately, it's too late.
I am kneeling here. Even if the name "Duan Feng" becomes a legend later, it is destined to leave a stain that will be laughed at by future generations.
Duan Feng bowed his head for his crimes.
Hahahaha…sounds good.
Don’t you want to create a flawless “mythical resume” for yourself?
Weren’t every person I met and every legendary story on my path to becoming a god predetermined by you?
Isn't it true that every time I do something out of the ordinary, you have a way to tamper with it and call a horse a zebra?
Now, what else can you do?
Yu Cang, Ye Chengming, Bian Hong... this kneeling in front of everyone, do you have any way to erase it!
It turns out there are times when you feel powerless... You should have experienced this feeling a long time ago.
Fortunately, it’s not too late now.
Since he could remember, he had never felt any love from Duan Zhang.
He knew that after today, Duan Zhang would be in great danger. He had thought that he should be very happy at this moment. After all, the constraints imposed on him since childhood were finally gone forever...
But when the moment really came, he was not so calm.
Although... Duan Zhang did not love him, and although he always called Duan Ao and Duan Zhang by their names, he was still his father after all.
How can I give it up so easily?
If Duan Zhang had called him last to ask him to plead for mercy for Yu Cang, he would have sneered and ignored him, but Duan Zhang actually apologized to him for the first time...
“…”
When Aqiu told him about this possibility, he didn't believe it.
...Whatever.
Then I will save your life.
It's just right, so you can see me being humble.
…
Duan Zhang's voice was hoarse. The moment Duan Feng knelt down, he wanted to rush forward to stop him, but Ye Chengming just glanced at him, and an invisible force fixed him in place.
So, he could only watch Duan Feng kneeling there.
At this moment, his heart was filled with regret.
In fact, Duan Zhang has been thinking about it since Duan Feng was defeated by Wu Chen.
Perhaps, he really owed Duan Feng a lot...
In this era, no one has ever seen what a person with mythical appearance looks like.
Duan Zhang dared to say that his son possessed a mythical figure simply because he had the same talent as Di Changan...
But when he saw with his own eyes Yu Cang calmly defeating Yao Qi who had taken over someone else's body on the field, he suddenly understood.
That's right... This kind of genius is the true legend...
At that moment, he understood something.
In one era, there is only one myth... This may also be related to the illusory destiny.
So after the league, that night, Duan Zhang locked himself in the office for a long time and finally accepted the fact... perhaps Duan Feng was just an ordinary person.
For some reason, he felt relieved at that moment.
The momentum he created was too great. At this point, neither Duan Zhang nor Duan Feng could stop. They were both being pushed forward by this momentum. Now... they were intercepted by Yu Cang who suddenly appeared. Perhaps, for Feng'er, this might not be a bad thing.
When his family fell into obscurity, when the momentum he had created with his own hands was broken and there was no room for maneuver left, a little bit of fatherly love finally emerged in his heart.
But it was too late.
This love no longer has a place to be poured out, nor an opportunity to be poured out.
The people who were besieging the Duan family had pushed him into a desperate situation. The last thing he could do was to try not to drag Duan Feng down.
But now...why, why are you doing this!
Yu Cang has already spoken. He has already said that you don’t have to do this!
Fight to the death on the frontier? How can you make such a vow... With such influential people present, once you say this, there's no way to regret it even if you want to!
Moreover, even if he becomes a legend, he will die of old age in the frontier?
That’s a thousand years!
Why, why bother!
Looking at the scene before him, Duan Zhang's heart was completely filled with pain and regret. His indifference and apathy as a person in power disappeared at this moment. At this moment, he only hated himself for creating all this.
Feng'er...
Boom!
The strength in Duan Zhang's body disappeared in an instant. He collapsed to the ground powerlessly and closed his eyes in pain.
…
Looking at everything in front of him, Yu Cang stood up.
He opened his mouth, wanting to persuade Duan Feng, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back into his stomach.
Whatever.
For Duan Feng, perhaps it would be torture for him to stay in Yan Country and develop well at this moment.
Although Duan Feng was rebellious and had already knelt in front of him, he had his own pride. If he did not agree, it would be an insult to him.
The border...although it is dangerous, but at this point, we can only trust Duan Feng.
Yan Country has always treated geniuses in this way. Even if there is a definite chance of death ahead, as long as the genius makes a decision from the heart, they will be respected.
"Okay." Yu Cang said, "I'll wait for you to return after you become a god."
Duan Feng's expression changed slightly, as if he realized something.
But he didn't make any unnecessary reaction. He took a deep breath, stood up, and left the banquet hall... without even looking at Duan Zhang.
Now all the wild beasts have been isolated outside the Tianjiang Great Wall, and Yu Cang looks like he is bound to become a god. Logically speaking, Yan Country has three myths. If he becomes a god, then there will be four myths living in the same era, and he will be invincible on the blue planet.
Logically speaking, with such a powerful force, the country will surely be peaceful and the people will be safe, which means that his fate will be to "die of old age in the frontier."
But it seems... Yu Cang felt that there must have been "chaos in the sky" at that time?
Duan Feng didn't think Yu Cang was just talking casually. It was normal for a genius like him to have some advance predictions about disasters.
What kind of disaster is so difficult even for myths?
Duan Feng felt much more depressed.
If we can prevent such a disaster, then we can be even.
One more reason to become a god.
Thinking of this, Duan Feng left.
Tomorrow, he will rush to the border, join the army, start from the bottom, and become a legend!
It must also become a myth.
…
Looking at Duan Feng's departing figure, Yu Cang couldn't help but ask in his heart:
"La, do you think he can become a god?"
"Not necessarily," La said. "The path to godhood on Blue Star is still very vague. Under such circumstances, it's difficult to predict a person's future based on their talent... but he's already qualified to reach this realm."
Yu Cang couldn't help but smile: "That's good."
Blue Star is where the Emperor Star fell, and everyone should be like a dragon.
How is it possible that there are only a few myths like now?
Is the path to becoming a god vague... Then let him clarify it.
…
After Duan Feng left, the meeting room became noisy and everyone was talking.
Once upon a time, when they mentioned Duan Feng, they were mostly in awe, thinking that he might become a legend.
But people are afraid of comparison.
In front of Yu Cang, the light emitted by Duan Feng was still too weak.
The protagonist of this era is undoubtedly Yu Cang!
The scene before us is also an indirect evidence.
Look at who rushed over to support Yu Cang... There are three guardians of the country alone. In comparison, the heads of the enemy families are not even worthy of being here.
Moreover, each of them was no ordinary guardian of the country; even Ye Chengming had come. Even though everyone present was a person of prominent status, it was rare to see such a scene.
Isn’t this the treatment that only the protagonists of the era can get?
At this moment, Yu Cang, who caused all this... looked calm, and it was obvious that he was no longer surprised by this scene.
From today onwards, the Duan family will be removed from the imperial capital.
Yu Cang, in a moment of calmness, saw a prominent family that had dominated the imperial capital disappear before his eyes.
Even later, perhaps no one would dare to step forward and divide up the Duan family's assets.
Because these industries should belong to Yu Cang - at least that's what the other three families think.
"Alright, Duan Zhang," Ye Chengming said, "Let's go. Come back with me and accept the investigation."
Duan Zhang: “…”
He couldn't refuse and could only leave.
…
Yu Cang sighed.
This matter developed very quickly.
He finally understood why the Duan family was so eager to give him the Tianmen spot even though the college league hadn't ended yet.
Judging from the situation today, it is obvious that the Duan family has long been unable to hold on, and I urgently need to say something to the Duan family.
However… now that the treat had been taken away, he no longer had the mood to continue eating… Mainly because he saw that those people were already showing signs of coming over to chat with him, and he didn't want to deal with it.
But they are supporting me today, so it would not be good to just leave.
Therefore, I could only force myself to smile and try to finish chatting with this group of people as soon as possible.
Behind.
Gu Jieshuang buried her head in her food and ate hard.
Don't look at him.
She couldn't handle this situation.
It depends on the boss...
…
After dealing with the crowd, Yu Cang finally found an opportunity and took Gu Jieshuang and Qi'er away from Linfeng Hotel.
At this moment, the north has not yet fully entered summer, and it is a time of fluctuating temperatures. The night breeze is quite chilly. As soon as Yu Cang went out the door, he couldn't help but tighten his clothes.
It's still very cold at night.
"Boss." Gu Jieshuang asked, "Are you full?"
"Not bad." Yu Cang touched his stomach. "Luckily I ate a lot before the banquet started... The food here tastes okay."
Seeing Yu Cang looking a little embarrassed, Gu Jieshuang couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
