Time flies, and decades pass in the blink of an eye.
The little fox from back then has now grown into a graceful young woman, nestled in the man's arms, and he can hardly bear to let her go.
"Qinghan, why don't you think about this? Whether it's true or not, Qinghan's mother has already fulfilled her wish, hasn't she?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qinghan seemed to wake from a dream. He had just been wondering why his master had said it was a trap, but now...
When the General Who Guarded the North chose to return to the capital, the vast snow-covered plains finally returned to true peace.
Snowflakes were able to fall on the earth, and while the people were not exactly well-fed and clothed, they no longer had to be displaced or suffer the ravages of war.
The price was the fall of the Demon Emperor, and the loss of a little fox mother, blinded by hatred.
"Master, do you mean this is Mother's choice?"
Su Cheng gave a cold laugh, as if mocking himself.
Su Cheng spent some time choosing his words and some time pondering them before finally coming up with a way of speaking that his disciples might understand.
"In my view, this is a process of survival of the fittest, another means of checks and balances, and a manifestation of power struggles."
"After the lead sheep points the way for the flock, it stays behind to cover the rear. This is its choice, but isn't it also a choice it had no other option?"
Ye Qinghan didn't understand at all. She had never been a demon emperor and couldn't comprehend such behavior.
Even his master did not answer his question.
If that's the case, should we still seek revenge?
Does Master mean that this is not their fault?
If this isn't their fault, then whose fault is it?
Did my mother die in vain?
Ye Qinghan couldn't accept it. Even if she had to be the villain, she would kill all those who betrayed her mother!
Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!
"Master, Qinghan still wants revenge. Qinghan believes that Mother was not wrong! Qinghan wants those sinners to all die a horrible death!"
Su Cheng rubbed Ye Qinghan's head, wanting the guy to relax; revenge was something he was going to take.
“Revenge is a must. Those people are short-sighted and treacherous, and their crimes deserve to be punished.”
"I just don't want Qinghan to have only hatred in her eyes. I hope Qinghan can be happy."
"Since Qinghan came to the Northern Region, has she never laughed from the bottom of her heart?"
The young demon emperor foresaw death. How could the thousands of years of estrangement between humans and demons be changed overnight?
Ending the war is not that simple.
Standing at the forefront of the storm, she is watched by far more people than she can see.
So many eyes were watching, yet her attitude did not represent the demon race.
Even though he swept across the snowy plains and unified the northern border with his strength, the peace he obtained through forceful means was like the hypocritical smile of a deceitful person.
Even if he were to kneel and kowtow to her three times and kowtow nine times, it would be difficult to guarantee that he would not harbor any other thoughts in his heart.
The man, falling like a meteor, became a pawn in her game of changing the course of events.
The immortal had nowhere to go, and besides, she had saved his life, so he didn't care about such trivial matters.
His status as an immortal would undoubtedly attract countless eyes, freeing him up to do other things.
She planned to meet the Human Emperor, but unfortunately, the Human Emperor refused any negotiations with the demon race.
Of course, someone was behind this, but she didn't know that and she didn't care.
She found the General Zhenbei, and sneaked into his tent alone in the middle of the night, talking with him all night long.
Clearly, the General Who Guards the North is much smarter than the Emperor; she made a deal with him.
In the eyes of the General of the North, there is nothing wrong with expanding territory, but the premise is that the territory under his rule is prosperous and the people are at peace.
At that time, the human race was not much better off either. Facing the powerful demon race, the human race also found it difficult to gain an advantage.
She exchanged the throne of the emperor for the stability of the north and south, so the General of the North naturally had no reason to refuse.
But her joy was short-lived; an unexpected event occurred when the immortal wanted to see her, saying that someone was plotting to harm her.
However, this was exactly what she had expected, so she felt nothing and even wanted to laugh a little.
If she hadn't turned a blind eye, they would have been nothing more than a rabble, what waves could they have stirred up?
The entire Northern Region would have to grovel at her feet, let alone a few clowns?
She made a second deal with the immortal: as long as the immortal promised that her people would be treated well, she would no longer interfere.
Just as the civil and military officials of the court had thought, even a fallen immortal was not someone the Demon Emperor could control. However, that immortal at least gave the Demon Emperor some dignity.
The emperor will fall, and so will she, but she will not be the one with virtue.
Contrary to what Su Yuan said, the immortal went to find the person behind the scenes after learning the truth.
But as far as Su Cheng knew, that immortal was the culprit, and the so-called suppression of the immortal was a fabrication.
He's just a rat who can't return to the celestial realm, and has fallen to the mortal world to wreak havoc.
However, the drama he directed and acted in fooled the world.
Using the role of an intermediary, he simultaneously raised the banner of rebellion while playing the role of a friend of the demon race and an ambassador of peace.
There's nothing good about being an immortal. Su Cheng felt that many people hadn't learned how to be a human being before they became immortals.
In fact, that immortal was just an unknown little karami in the immortal realm. He was hunted down and fled to the mortal realm because he slept with someone else's Daoist partner.
Hehe, but this kind of thing isn't that important, so Su Cheng didn't explain it in detail to his eldest disciple.
After Su Cheng finished speaking, the eldest disciple remained silent for a while.
