Chapter 250: Some Reminders, Tragic Story
"If I successfully complete the Drunkenness and Dreaming of Death challenge, can you really save Jiang Kingdom? Can you save my brother?" the girl asked cautiously.
After witnessing the war with my own eyes, I originally thought that by sacrificing myself, I could protect my country and my brother.
However, the final outcome is difficult to change.
It's all in vain.
It seems as if it was destined.
"I don't know. I can only answer your question after you drink three cups of wine and become drunk." Chen Fan said seriously.
He is not yet an omnipotent God.
There are some things that he is limited in ability to do.
Although there is indeed the ability to change such an outcome, that relies on the system, and the backlash is something that ordinary people cannot afford.
Hearing this, Long Kui nodded and her expression became determined.
Chen Fan waved his hand and Zui Sheng Meng Si appeared on the counter.
However, when Long Kui was about to pick up the Drunken Life and Dreaming of Death, Chen Fan actually stopped her.
This was something that everyone found incredible.
You know, the shopkeeper has never done this before.
In their hearts, anyone who comes to challenge Zui Sheng Meng Si will be welcomed by the shopkeeper regardless of whether they are good or evil.
The reason for this, of course, is that regardless of whether the challenge succeeds or fails, Chen Fan will gain benefits from it.
So for him, there is no loss.
He remained fair throughout.
Challenges are allowed regardless of whether the challenger is good or bad.
Many people think he is too rational.
Therefore, in the minds of these people, Chen Fan represents neutrality.
But now they would actually stop guests from challenging the Drunken Dream?
"Do you know what price you will pay if you fail in this challenge?" Chen Fan asked.
Hearing this, Long Kui shook her head, her face full of confusion.
"You are different from other guests. You are now a sword spirit and you don't have a physical body at all. If you fail in the challenge, the result will be that your soul will be torn apart." Chen Fan said calmly.
The reason why he asked this.
It's simply because he is a pitiful person.
Although she was a princess, her fate was very tragic.
Waiting in the Demon-Suppressing Tower for a thousand years was such torture.
Feeling anxious all the time.
Otherwise there wouldn’t be another red nightshade.
Without another red nightshade, she would not have survived the thousand years.
That is why Chen Fan reminded the other party.
Now that he has finally returned to reunite with his brother Jingtian, it would be a pity if his soul were to be scattered.
Chen Fan and the other two have a happy ending.
Instead of pursuing a fruitless past, it is better to cherish the present and the people around you.
Hearing this, Long Kui hesitated for a moment, but soon her eyes became determined.
"Even if I disappear from this world, I want Jiang Kingdom to survive the war. I don't want my brother to die in the war."
This obsession has sustained him through thousands of years of suffering in the Demon Locking Tower.
Chen Fan didn't know whether this obsession was good or bad.
"Okay." Chen Fan nodded.
He respects the choices everyone makes.
After Long Kui drank the first cup of Drunken Dream, his body underwent tremendous changes.
Red and blue clothes alternate.
He exudes both gentleness and domineering aura.
Many people saw this scene with disbelief on their faces.
"I originally thought she was very gentle and looked extremely weak, but I didn't expect the magic power in her body to be so terrifying!"
"Sure enough, none of those who can come here now are ordinary people!"
Even the Drunken Swordsman felt the magical power in Long Kui and his eyelids twitched wildly.
He also didn't expect that the sword spirit in the magic sword was so powerful.
"What I'm curious about is, she has such powerful magic power, but she didn't change the fate of Jiang Kingdom?"
"How chaotic was that era?"
"Who knows?"
"But if she can successfully challenge the Drunken Life and Dream of Death, I hope the shopkeeper can fulfill her long-cherished wish."
Amid the discussion among the crowd, countless scenes appeared in front of the girl.
That was the happiest time for her and her brother when they were little, and they had always been in the palace.
Long Kui grew up with her brother Long Yang.
When the two of them were playing games and Long Kui felt scared, Long Yang would grab her shoulders tightly and vow to protect his sister forever.
The relationship between the brother and sister is very good. For Long Kui, Long Yang took the trouble to get her one wide-sleeved fairy dress after another, just to give his sister a surprise.
When everyone saw this scene, they felt extremely warm.
But the following scenes made everyone sigh at Long Kui's suffering.
Soon, war broke out in Jiang State and Long Yang was fighting outside.
Long Kui was left alone in the palace. For her, her brother's safe return was her hope year after year.
Long Kui is a protected princess. She has never experienced any hardship since her childhood. Even if war comes, she only needs to hide in the palace and wait for her father and brother to return triumphantly.
The harem is the best cradle for Long Kui.
But even so, Long Kui was not happy. She had to take care of her sick mother day after day, and worry about her father and brother who were fighting outside. You can imagine how much she was suffering.
It's like living day by day like a year.
When her brother Long Yang came back for the first time, he had a scar on his face.
Long Kui touched the shocking scar and finally couldn't help crying out loud.
He immediately made a decision in his heart to go to the battlefield with Long Yang and kill the enemy together.
But Long Yang glared at her, dragged her out of the army, and broke her legs to protect her safety.
When everyone saw this, they felt that Long Yang was too paranoid.
After all, Long Kui is his biological sister, how could he have the heart to do that to her?
However, no one knew that Long Yang was extremely distressed at that time.
But what can we do about it?
The battlefield is no joke.
Once you are gone, you don’t know whether you are alive or dead.
I don’t know whether I will die today or tomorrow, and I’m worried every day.
How could he let his sister Long Kui suffer such danger?
While Long Yang was killing people reluctantly, he would also fantasize that if he and Long Kui were just children from ordinary families, they could escape, hide, and even face death together.
But Long Yang couldn't, because he was the prince of Jiang State and Long Kui's brother.
He has too many people he wants to protect. For Long Yang, there is no one behind him and he can never fall down.
…
After watching these scenes, many people in the martial arts world shook their heads.
A true tragedy.
“I felt like she wasn’t going to make it.”
The Snow Moon Sword Immortal looked at the extremely weak Long Kui with a frown on his face.
This little girl's past is so heartbreaking.
She simply couldn't bear to see the other person's soul die.
"Girl, don't try it. In your current state, you will be scared to death before you can even finish drinking three cups of Drunken Dream." Li Hanyi reminded her immediately.
As a woman herself, she could empathize.
However, Long Kui seemed not to hear Li Hanyi's reminder.
Continue to the front end and grab the second glass of drunkenness.
Chen Fan turned to Wang Yuyan and said, "It's no use reminding her now."
"Once she had her first drunk, there was no turning back."
"There are only two possible outcomes now. Either the challenge is successful and her wish is fulfilled, or the challenge fails and her soul is shattered."
Hearing this, Wang Yuyan felt extremely uncomfortable.
"The obsession in her heart is too deep, and it has been engraved in her mind. Even if her soul is torn apart, she has to complete her doubts."
Xiao Sanxiao can best understand Long Kui.
In these long four thousand years, he has too many regrets.
If he could get over it now, he would like to make up for this regret even at a huge cost.
After drinking the second cup of Drunkenness, the scene in front of Long Kui changed.
That was a scene of the battle between Jiang State and other countries.
The battle was extremely fierce.
Soldiers in armor fell dead in a pool of blood, with their blood-soaked clothes wrapped around their blurred flesh.
There were still dying people, crawling with difficulty among the broken limbs and arms, their bloodstained faces revealing a mixture of despair and hope.
Faint moans came out of their mouths, but were blown away by the whistling wind.
The smell of blood spread and drifted away.
Long Kui was standing on the city wall, while his brother Long Yang was fighting a desperate battle with the enemy below.
“I didn’t expect Jingtian to be a prince in his previous life. This is a completely different temperament.”
"Yes, fighting to the death, such courage is admirable."
"As a prince, how many people are there who can lead by example and even burn their boats in the end?"
"No wonder the girl misses her brother so much. How could she not miss him when meeting a man like him?"
After seeing this scene, everyone started talking about it.
…
Half an incense stick later, Long Kui drank the third cup of wine in a drunken stupor.
This time, after drinking it, he fell directly to the ground.
The magic sword also felt that something was wrong with the sword spirit and began to vibrate wildly, as if it wanted to come over to protect the girl.
"Don't be nervous. None of us will hurt her. She is just too weak now." Chen Fan said to the magic sword.
After hearing this, the magic sword calmed down.
At this moment, Jingtian appeared outside Zuisheng Tower.
As soon as he appeared, he stepped forward and held Long Kui in his arms.
"What happened?"
"How could you be so weak?" Jingtian looked flustered when he saw this scene.
"Zhonglou fulfilled his wish and had a battle with you."
"And you also fulfilled your wish and became General Fei Peng."
"Now, it's your sister's turn." Chen Fan looked at Jingtian and said meaningfully.
"She is not a human being after all. She can't continue to accompany you for the rest of your life."
"Perhaps one day, as a sword spirit, she will be shattered."
“So it was in her heart that she wanted her wish to be fulfilled.”
"Drunk and dreaming?"
When Jingtian heard this, his eyes widened and he couldn't believe what was happening.
"Yes, this is her own choice. I have already warned her that if she fails in the challenge, her soul will be torn apart. But she still made this choice."
Hearing this, Jingtian fell silent.
"In her current state, does she have a chance to complete the Drunkenness and Dream of Death challenge?" Jingtian asked worriedly.
"I don't know either. It depends on whether she can wake up." Chen Fan shook his head and replied.
