Chapter 737 Going Home
"Back off!"
“Everyone, step back!!”
"Everyone, get off the city wall!"
"Without your majesty's permission, no one is allowed to approach!!"
“.”
At the end of the Chou hour, we reached the northern city wall of Fengyuan.
As a team of yellow-armored soldiers hurriedly escorted a man up the city wall, all the guards who were on guard on the wall were driven down.
While running, many soldiers couldn't help but secretly look at the woman in the golden skirt. Their eyes showed different expressions, some respectful, some reserved, and some surprised.
The latter did not even glance at them, but just ran quickly to the battlement holding her skirt, biting her lip and looking down nervously.
Then, she saw the man sitting cross-legged among the corpses with his eyes closed.
"Your Majesty, this man has been sitting here for more than half an hour without moving."
Behind him, a soldier said nervously: "I noticed that his realm was very high, and there were strong internal energy fluctuations around him. I was worried that it was a conspiracy of the enemy, so I reported the matter to the battalion commander."
"No, I didn't expect to alarm His Majesty."
"Well, you did a great job on this."
Looking back, Xu Suisui's expression instantly became calm.
She glanced at the soldier who was speaking, then shifted her gaze to another man who looked like an officer.
"When will Senior Qin and the other monks arrive?"
"Your Majesty, Master Qin has just come out of retreat, and the monks also need time to hand over the Heavenly Buddha Formation to others."
The officer immediately replied in a deep voice: "It will take at least a quarter of an hour."
"A quarter of an hour"
Looking at the flames coming from the Qianhui army camp in the distance, Xu Suisui immediately ordered:
"Ignore them for now. Get all the top three-rank generals in the army, no, get everyone here!"
"Also, tell Abbot Wuchen to be ready to withdraw at any time!"
"Retreat?"
The silver-armored officer was stunned, and repeated subconsciously: "Your Majesty, you, you mean to withdraw the Heavenly Buddha Formation?"
“.”
Glancing at the officer, Xu Suisui did not answer or explain, but just shouted coldly: "Go quickly!"
“Ah! Yes, yes!”
"Your Majesty, calm down! I will go right away!"
The officer responded loudly, not daring to say anything more, and quickly turned and ran away.
The moonlight and Buddha's light sprinkled on the empty city wall. Xu Suisui watched the officer disappear, and then turned his gaze to the man among the corpses.
The man's face was covered, so others couldn't recognize his identity, but she could.
As for the orders just given, they were also helpless moves made to protect Wei Changtian.
You must know that people who practice cultivation are at their most vulnerable when they break through.
If it is interrupted midway, at the very least it will cause disorder of Qi and blood, at worst it will leave behind a very serious hidden illness or even lead to regression in realm.
The higher the realm, the more serious this side effect is, so most people will choose to break through in a secret room or deep in the mountains and forests, and they will even ask relatives and friends to "protect" them for a safer approach.
Therefore, Wei Changtian's breakthrough to the second level right under the city wall where the two armies were facing each other was undoubtedly a bit arrogant.
But this can’t be entirely blamed on Wei Changtian.
After all, as mentioned before, under normal circumstances, "three breaking two" is just a natural process and usually does not take too long, only a few hundred breaths at most.
In such a short time, even if Qian Hui and the other two countries really noticed the fluctuations of true energy here and sent people to check it out, it would be far from enough.
But Wei Changtian didn't expect that the hurdle he thought he had "jumped over" would actually appear again.
This greatly prolonged the time it took for him to break through, and it hadn't even finished after more than half an hour.
Of course, if no one disturbed him, it would be no problem for him to sit here all day.
But now the two countries of Qianhui have obviously noticed something unusual and sent people here.
Once they find out that someone has broken through to the second level here and is not one of theirs, the result can be imagined.
Therefore, Xu Suisui could only find a way to prevent Wei Changtian from being "disturbed".
First, he sent out the top three masters to stop them.
If they cannot resist, or if the enemy still has reinforcements, then they will probably have to withdraw the Tianfo Formation and fill it with ordinary soldiers . Xu Suisui knew the consequences of withdrawing the formation very well.
After all, the power of the Heavenly Buddha Formation is so great that you can't just withdraw it when you want or put it up when you want.
Each time the formation is set up, not only many Buddhist treasures are needed as sacrifices, but also a long preparation time is required.
Therefore, even if the Buddhist sect had enough prepared things to set up the formation for the second time, the time difference in between would be enough for Qian to return to the two countries and launch another round, or even a number of attacks.
This was undoubtedly fatal to Fengyuan City, which had just relaxed.
Thinking of this, Xu Suisui was protecting Wei Changtian at all costs. "Wei Changtian! You are so stupid!!"
Staring at the figure under the city wall with gritted teeth, Xu Suisui's eyes were red, and he didn't know whether it was because of anger or anxiety.
She knew that Wei Changtian was now "getting over his heartache", and she even knew what Wei Changtian's "heartache" was.
In the books she read, Wei Changtian certainly successfully overcame this hurdle, so Xu Suisui was not too worried that Wei Changtian would be trapped in the illusion and unable to extricate himself, eventually leading to obsession.
She was just worried about when Wei Changtian would wake up.
After all, if she woke up too late, even if she tried her best, she might be powerless. "Fake!"
Suddenly, Xu Suisui opened his throat and in a hurry, he didn't care about anything else. He used all his strength to shout at the figure over and over again: "Fake!!"
“They’re all fake!!”
"Wake up!!"
"Wow! Wake up!!"
“.”
"Dad, Mom"
"You, believe me, I really have no choice."
In the illusion, Wei Changtian naturally could not hear Xu Suisui's call, and at this moment he was still trying his best to explain something to the man and woman in front of him.
However, the two did not seem to "forgive" him, but just whispered bitterly:
"Alas, son, Dad never thought you would become like this."
"Even if you really have your reasons, you shouldn't just let it go and not talk about it."
"Let's go home."
"When I got home, everything was over."
"Yes, son."
On the other side, the woman also echoed softly: "Let's go home."
"Go back, and you won't have to kill anyone anymore."
"Mom will cook your favorite dishes for you, and your dad won't urge you to get married anymore."
"Like your dad just said, no matter what, you are your parents' son."
"Let's go back, okay?"
“.”
“Tick-tock.”
It seemed to be raining outside the window, and Wei Changtian hadn't heard the sound of raindrops hitting the glass window for a long time.
He looked at the exhausted man opposite him and the woman who was almost begging him, and the pain and struggle in his eyes became more and more intense.
Then, he saw a milky white light curtain appear not far ahead, where his bedroom door should have been.
And behind that light curtain. "Wei Tian! Where have you been? How long have you not shown up?"
"That's right! Every time we drink, you're missing! It makes us feel like drinking is boring!"
"Cousin! You promised to buy me a new phone during the Chinese New Year! It's been two years!"
"Xiaotian, my aunt has a colleague whose daughter is pretty good. Why don't you take some time to meet her?"
"Xiao Wei, some clients are just idiots. You don't have to be servile to them."
“.”
Friends, relatives, colleagues. Faces, voices, words. Wei Changtian stared blankly at it all, and the memories that were buried deep in his heart came back to his mind.
"Dad, Mom"
He retracted his gaze and looked at the man and the woman, and suddenly smiled.
"Let's go."
"go home."
