"Mr. Lan, let me see you off one last time!"
Ye Bai added in his mind, "I'll also visit my second brother."
The rule prohibiting shadows was clearly not Lan Zhexian's rule, but rather his second brother's.
As they parted, Ye Bai turned back to look at Chongshan and said earnestly,
"Brother Chongshan, may I ask your name?"
Even a lone wolf's shadow will have its own name.
The current Shadow Seven is called Zhao Ziyan, which Ye Bai can easily see through his Eye of Insight.
Ke Ying Shi had more concealment on his body, and his Eye of Insight was directly displayed.
What more could you ask for than a talent awakened in one go?
Look at this world, where can you find SSS-level talents anymore? You think they're worthless, and I think they're worthless too.
Ah, yes, yes, yes.
Ignoring the Eye of Insight's complaints, Ye Bai looked at Shadow Ten, wanting an answer.
After Ye Bai finished meeting with his second brother, Ying Shi went off to carry out a new mission.
Although they spent little time together, they became close friends who had faced life and death together.
Without Shadow Ten's protection, whether Ye Bai could have survived is another matter entirely, let alone earned so many War God merits.
The time for parting has come.
Ye Bai felt that he should at least know the other person's name.
Once Ye Bai possesses the combat power of a ninth-tier War God, Shadow Ten will also learn the name of Shura.
That's fair.
When Shura asked him this, a look of reminiscence appeared on Ying Shi's face, and he grinned.
"I haven't mentioned my own name for many years; I'm just a shadow, I don't dwell on the past."
Those within the shadows are all brothers and sisters; we are all in the same boat, so let no one look down on anyone else.
"Telling you is fine, but... could you please keep this a secret?"
Faced with Ying Shi's request, Ye Bai nodded in agreement.
Ying Shi announced his name.
"I am Liu Qingyao."
Ye Bai's expression froze slightly.
Liu Qingyao?
Liu Qingyan?
The old fox's older brother?!
I had seen Liu Qingyao's name on the memorial tablet before, and Liu Qingyao's last words were also left for Liu Qingyan!
Ye Bai had planned everything meticulously, but he never expected to encounter Liu Qingyao in the shadows!
The other person is still alive, that's... great!
Composing himself, Ye Bai said with a smile,
"Brother Qingyao, let's have a drink together sometime."
"good."
As Ye Bai bid farewell to Ying Shi, Elder Lan also gave Ying Shi some words of advice.
Upon returning from this trip, Shadow Eleven will also depart; this is Elder Lan's intention.
Even if Shadow continues to protect Elder Lan, it's time to replace him.
"No matter how many words we say, we must eventually part ways. Eleven, twenty years of companionship, thank you for your hard work."
Old Lan looked at Shadow Eleven.
This person, who has always kept his face hidden in the shadows, has never shown his true appearance.
The two have not spoken much over the past twenty years.
Who says that true friends cannot be formed without words?
Along the way, they had been together, and Lan Tianqi was very grateful to the other party for saving his life.
He bowed deeply to Ying Shiyi, who quickly returned the bow.
When Lan Tian stood up, he had some difficulty straightening his back, and his shadow helped him support his arms so he could slowly straighten up.
Lan Tianqi coughed twice and spoke again.
"Before we part, I also want to ask this question: could you tell me your name?"
After all, you know... cough cough... a second awakening could really kill me.
After going through countless hardships and finally reaching this point, Lan Tianqi still could not escape the shadow of death.
The success rate of a second awakening is less than one in ten.
If he fails, given Lan Tianqi's current situation, he will have little chance of survival.
Ying Shiyi fell silent for a long while before speaking.
"I swore an oath on the day I awoke in the shadows."
For the rest of my life, I will never show my true face again, never mention my name again... Let death be my rebirth...
Ying Shiyi was unwilling to say.
Moreover, based on Shadow Eleven's previous action of contacting the Blood Navy Legion...
With Lan Lao's wisdom, he has most likely already guessed Ying Shiyi's true identity.
Even so, Old Lan still chose to ask directly.
He couldn't be bothered to guess anymore.
Having spent a lifetime busy and racking one's brains over a lifetime of problems, even these past few days have been filled with scheming and infighting with all sorts of demons and monsters, causing mental and physical exhaustion.
This time, Professor Lan wanted to look directly at the reference answer.
"Can't even I, Lan Tianqi, ask?"
hiss--
A royal flush, a decisive blow!
Shadow Eleven fell silent again. The black mist gradually dissipated, revealing an aged face with wrinkles that spoke of the years and were full of stories.
It was him!
Lan Zhexian and Liu Qingyao were also somewhat shocked to recognize Ying Shiyi's identity.
His lips trembled slightly as Ying Shiyi slowly opened his mouth, his voice trembling as if each word drained all his strength.
"The guilty general... Ying Jinghua."
As he spoke, Ying Shiyi lowered his head, hunched his shoulders, and slouched over, like an ostrich trying to bury its head in the sand.
He was unwilling to show his true face because he felt he owed too much and was ashamed to face others. He lived in regret and shame every day and could not get out of the shadow.
Ninth Master could save him, but he couldn't untangle the knot in his heart.
Ying Jinghua even chose to exile himself, staying away from the battlefield, the shadow, and the lone wolf.
He clearly had greater potential and combat power, yet he took the initiative to accept the position of Shadow Eleven and silently protected Elder Lan.
Lan Tianqi pushed away Ye Bai, who was helping him up, and walked to Ying Jinghua's side, helping him straighten up.
“Jinghua, you have never been a criminal of the human race. If anyone is to judge your crimes, none of the human race is innocent.”
Everyone present fell silent, listening intently to the conversation between the two centenarians.
"Ying Jinghua, this is the last thing you promised me."
Lan Tianqi patted Ying Jinghua on the shoulder and said seriously,
"From this moment on, stand tall, your heart will be filled with boundless light, and you need not feel ashamed."
My heart is pure, and I have no shame before the world.
