Chapter 482 A bumpy road in love
"Mom, do you want to go see Dad?" Lan Xuan said softly, "The coffin was just taken away not long ago, and he probably hasn't been buried yet."
"……Um."
We will see each other for the last time after all.
On the way to the mausoleum, Sang Luo's thoughts drifted far away.
The first time they met was still vivid in my mind.
Lan Cang was the first male she truly loved in this world, but in the end he was unable to stay with her until the end, and the relationship was incomplete.
It’s better this way. When she thinks of him, he is still the most passionate and youthful.
Lan Cang probably didn't want her to see him become an old grandfather...
But Sang Luo was unwilling to accept this. Even if Lan Cang had a limited lifespan, he shouldn't have left her so suddenly and so early!
Is it really impossible to escape the fate of another time and space? !
Sang Luo took out the energy crystal core again.
As long as she can get the soul bead and crystal core, she can also use the furnace of creation to resurrect Lan Cang!
She wanted to change his ending.
Lan Xuan saw through her thoughts and said, "Mom, Dad said in his suicide note that you don't need to go to great lengths to resurrect him. This is his predetermined fate. Forcibly changing it will only cause you to bear unnecessary consequences..."
"I didn't promise him anything, and mother isn't afraid of the price!"
If Sang Luo was really afraid of retribution, she would never have come to this point. Isn't it just for the sake of getting what she wants that she has worked so hard to climb up?
She had nothing to be afraid of.
Sang Luo wanted her daughter to gather Lan Cang's soul again.
Zhixin wiped her tears and shook her head, "Mother... I tried... I, I can't find my father's soul..."
She had the same idea as her mother, and after rushing over, the first thing she wanted to do was to keep her father's soul.
However, her soul talent, which always worked, lost its effect at this moment, and she was unable to find the breath of Lan Cang's soul.
Sang Luo was filled with horror and disbelief, "How could this be?"
She had given the Soul-Returning Pearl to Xiao Zhixin to refine that year, and her daughter lived up to her expectations and successfully refined the power of the Soul-Returning Pearl. Her soul law talent was upgraded to perfection. There was no soul in the world that she could not find, unless - that soul completely disappeared from the world!
Are they a step late?
Really... there is no room for redemption...
Sang Luo lost all her strength, her legs and feet went limp and she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Zhi Xin hurriedly supported her shoulders, and she felt even sadder. "Mother, big brother is right. Dad's departure is destined. Some things can't be forced. Let's see him off for the last time..."
"Mom, take good care of yourself. If your body collapses, Dad will be sad to know."
Sang Luo closed her eyes and opened them again, holding back her tears, and said dejectedly, "I'll go and see him off for the last time."
In the beast world, beastmen with status and power generally do not choose cremation, but are buried in a grand manner.
It can be seen from the city lord's tomb that it took many years to build. He had already made plans for his departure.
Dozens of orcs were carrying the coffin to the mausoleum. When they saw Sang Luo and the young masters coming, they stopped and waited for instructions.
pity.
In the end, Sang Luo still didn't have the courage to open the coffin.
She was not afraid of seeing the broken corpse, but she just couldn't face the dead Lan Cang.
I don't want that scene to be the final ending of my memory of him.
At least, she can still ponder and savor it based on her past memories.
After a long time, Sang Luo said softly,
"Bury him."
She watched the coffin sink into the ground little by little, and finally be filled with thick black frozen soil.
The old friend sleeps forever.
She always said that he couldn't sit still, but now, he can finally have a good rest.
…
After the death of the old city lord, Pobing City and its subordinate Star City mourned together for a whole month. Then a new city lord took the throne. He was the old city lord’s most capable eldest son, Sang Lanxuan.
Among the three children, Lan Xuan has excellent comprehensive abilities and is steady enough. It is the best decision to let him take over the Icebreaking City as the heir.
Sang Lanyun and Sang Lanxin each have their own development paths. Before Lan Cang left, he handed over two main cities with a population of one million to his two children to manage. Their scale is not inferior to that of Pobing City.
After many twists and turns, Lan Xuan finally returned to Pobing City and inherited his father's path.
It was too sudden. He had been very busy this month and packed his luggage and brought it back. However, from now on, he would not live in the room in the backyard, but in the master bedroom and study of the City Lord's Mansion.
Sang Luo asked him, "Suilin City is too far from Pobing City. It's inconvenient to go back and forth."
Lan Xuan nodded, "Suilin City is closer to my third sister, so I'll let her take care of it from now on."
"You're not going back to Suilin City?"
Lan Xuan said dejectedly, "...No."
Sang Luo was puzzled. "Your engagement with Heng Tao of the Ice Bear Clan?"
Lan Xuan mustered up his courage and said, "Mom, let's cancel the engagement. I won't have any contact with her anymore."
Sang Luo was stunned. "Why so sudden? Did you have a fight with that girl? Is there some misunderstanding?"
"...There's no misunderstanding." Lan Xuan smiled bitterly. "I broke up with her a few months ago. I should have told you about this right away, but Dad left in such a hurry that I didn't think of it."
Lan Xuan's tone was firm, not like he was acting on impulse, and with his personality, he would never joke about such a thing.
"I've mentioned the cancellation of the engagement to the Ice Bear tribe's leader. They weren't very willing and kept trying to persuade me to stay, but I've made up my mind. Dad's gone now, so Mom, please come with me over in a few days."
Sang Luo, "...If you have truly thought it through, Mother would not stop you. However, an engagement is a major event in life. Back then, the two clans celebrated their engagement in the same city. If we cancel the engagement, it would be somewhat embarrassing for the other clan. In the future, there will be no chance."
"Well, I've thought it through."
"Okay, then mother will go with you in a few days to cancel this marriage."
Sang Luo didn't feel comfortable asking her eldest son directly about this sad incident, so she went to her second son and youngest daughter to ask them indirectly, and after piecing together the information, she finally found out the whole story.
Heng Tao had promised that she would only have Lan Xuan as her partner, but during her engagement with him, she slept with another male beast and decided to spend her life with him. The truth could not be hidden, and when Lan Xuan discovered this one time, he broke up with her.
Heng Tao tried to keep him, but Lan Xuan was stubborn and never looked back.
Sang Luo: ...Don’t reveal the affection between the two sons, as their road ahead is quite bumpy.
After breaking off the engagement and returning from the Ice Bear Tribe, Lan Xuan said nothing and was depressed for a long time.
It is normal for young people to experience some emotional hurt. After a while, they will recover.
When Sang Luo brought up the matter again, intentionally or unintentionally, Lan Xuan reacted very calmly, and occasionally responded with a smile.
He said that he would continue to look for a suitable partner and there was no need to rush. Life was long and he would always find someone he truly loved.
Sang Luo was relieved to see that his son had let go. "People can't always be stuck in the sadness of the past. They have to look forward."
Lan Xuan replied, "Mom, you too."
Sang Luo was stunned, then smiled and said, "Yeah."
I’m so tired, I’m going to sleep first.
No updates in the early morning, good night~
