"Captain..., a total of 392 people died this time, and... none of them have names."
The blood-soaked boy stared indifferently at the pile of mangled corpses.
Many people around him lowered their heads in silence upon hearing his words.
These people... were all their compatriots who fought alongside them.
But even until their deaths, they never had a name of their own.
And their ending, perhaps, is also their ending thereafter.
"knew."
Su Bai's cool voice rang out.
The next moment.
The ground cracked open, and the mangled corpse sank into the ground.
Soon, all the strange phenomena dissipated, and the pile of corpses and the traces of the people who had been there were no longer visible in the world.
Witnessing this scene, everyone let out a long sigh.
It was as if they were mourning the dead, and as if they were foreseeing their own future, hence the unconcealed sense of loss.
After all... once they die without a name, they are truly dead. In this world, few people will remember a weak, nameless person.
Whoosh!
Just then, Su Bai grabbed a long spear, slammed it into the ground, and then took out a Chang'an team member's token and hung it on the spear.
"What... what is this?"
A human looked over in confusion upon seeing this.
The surrounding humans also cast curious glances their way.
"The magistrate of Chang'an".
"As long as this decree remains, there will be people who remember them, who remember this place where heroes who fought for our human race were buried."
Su Bai spoke up.
"The Chang'an Order? Is it the order of the Chang'an Squad under the command of that ruler in the lower realm?"
A human suddenly exclaimed in shock.
Su Bai did not answer, but took out the Chang'an Token and wore it on his chest.
"This! This! This is actually the captain's order! You...you are that ruler from the lower realm, Su Bai?"
Upon seeing this, the human from before froze in place as if struck by lightning.
The people around were all shocked, even though they had no idea what the Chang'an Squad was.
But from this man's words, they heard the words "ruler"!
"So the captain is the ruler! I should have known, I should have known!"
"Yes, the ruler is a chosen one of heaven who can attain the Dao and become the Human Emperor. Only the ruler can possess the greatness of our human race!"
"I understand, I understand! The reason why the previous Palace Master of the Celestial Palaces released the Law of Inquiry into the Human Sovereign and hunted him down was to completely kill him and thus consolidate his own supreme position as the Human Emperor!"
"Your Majesty! We... have been waiting for you for so long! We beg you to overthrow this rampant and unbridled Heavenly Palace and seek justice for humanity throughout the myriad realms!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"......"
Snap!
Snap!
Snap!
......
After realizing Su Bai's identity, all the humans knelt down in obeisance!
But a sudden gust of wind lifted them all up before they could kneel.
This sudden move left everyone feeling flattered and even... somewhat bewildered.
Before this, all the powerful figures they had ever met were arrogant and haughty. They had never seen any powerful figure who could give them such respect as Su Bai!
Such actions brought tears to the eyes of many humans who had long suffered the hardships of life!
They gazed at the figure for a long time, as if trying to etch it deep into their hearts!
"I am willing to follow the ruler and seek justice for all people under heaven!"
