"If you just pursue power and abandon the people around you, then what's the point?"
Xiao Ning said this in an almost cowardly voice, as if he was afraid that his opinion would be denied.
Xiao Ning lived two lives. In his first life, he was just an ordinary teenager with neither a strong family background nor strong financial strength. It can be said that his life was full of ups and downs.
At that time, he did not have any great ambitions. He just hoped to find a stable job to make a living and to be filial to his mother in the future.
However, in this life, he has a happy family. His parents love him very much, and Xiyue, Leng Qingqiu and others also care about him very much.
As for Bai Ziyun and Nangong Luoyu, although their relationship did not develop smoothly, it finally had a good ending. Now he feels extremely satisfied and his heart is full of happiness.
Xiao Ning is such a person. He doesn't have too many obsessions in his heart. He just wants to live happily with his family and friends. If he has to give up these, he would rather give up the pursuit of the avenue.
Yourong Rouxue understood the deep meaning of Xiao Ning's words. She knew that Xiao Ning was too sentimental, and she didn't want to see Xiao Ning in such pain. But she also understood that if Xiao Ning continued to insist on his own ideas, it would be difficult to achieve higher achievements in the path of cultivation. So, she tried to persuade Xiao Ning to let go of his feelings and concentrate on pursuing strength.
"Ning'er, I understand what's in your mind, but I still hope you can understand that these are all things of the past, and what you have experienced in this world is just a drop in the ocean. But before that, I will always be by your side, and I will make you understand that I am the only one destined for you."
Xiao Ning was silent. Perhaps You Rong Rouxue was right, but the future was full of uncertainty. Who could predict it? He silently hugged You Rong Rouxue tightly, trying to empty his mind and stop thinking about those worries.
Yongning City
Xiaodie strolled along the bustling streets, feeling the hustle and bustle of the crowds. The warm sunshine sprinkled on her body, making her feel extremely comfortable and cozy. She whispered softly: "Is this the human world? It's great!"
Xiaodie looked around curiously, with excitement in her eyes. The people here were busy and fulfilled, and their lives were simple and happy. Xiaodie could not help but be infected by this atmosphere, and her mood became cheerful.
Song Junwan brought Xiaodie back to the Xiao Mansion. She held Xiaodie's hand and introduced her to Old Wang at the door.
"Old Wang, this is Xiaodie. Her family lives on the border. Because the demons have been making trouble recently, the whole family fled. But she got separated from her family after an accident on the way. Fortunately, she fainted in front of the Song Mansion and we rescued her. Now the girl is helpless, so I brought her back!"
Lao Wang nodded, looked at Xiaodie and said, "Oh, are you planning to stay in the mansion?"
Song Junwan hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "This matter depends on Madam's opinion. I can't make the decision. Let her stay first and make a decision after they come back."
After saying that, the three of them walked into the courtyard together.
Xiaodie was arranged to live in Song Junwan's courtyard. She looked around the tidy house curiously and was very happy.
Song Junwan held her shoulders and said gently, "Xiaodie, you stay here first. I have no right to decide whether you stay or go. You will know when Madam Chu comes back."
Xiaodie's voice was a little timid as she asked softly, "Mrs. Chu, are you very strict?"
Song Junwan frowned slightly, and after thinking carefully, she slowly said, "To be honest, she is a little harsh, but she is actually a kind-hearted and very good person."
"As long as you work hard and don't cause trouble, there won't be any big problems! If something really happens, I can go to Ning'er to plead for you."
"Who is Ning'er?"
Xiaodie blinked curiously and asked.
"Ning'er's full name is Xiao Ning. He is Madam Chu's only son and my godson. He is a very cute child. I believe you will like him."
Song Junwan showed a gentle smile on her face and explained patiently.
After hearing this, Xiaodie's anxiety was slightly relieved. She looked at Song Junwan with grateful eyes and said sincerely, "Thank you, sister."
Song Junwan smiled gently, nodded, then turned and left the room.
Xiaodie watched Song Junwan leave the room, then stood up, looked out the window, and muttered to herself.
"What a group of nice people! Uncle, I really hope you can get to know them!"
After returning to Da Chu, Xiang Yuxin told Fan Linghua the news of Nangong Luoyu's death with a heavy face. Fan Linghua widened her eyes and looked at Xiang Yuxin in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Is the Imperial Master really killed by the demons?"
Fan Linghua's voice was trembling slightly. She clenched her fists, her nails digging deeply into her palms, and her heart was filled with endless anger and grief.
Xiang Yuxin nodded heavily, tears of grief flashing in his eyes.
"The national teacher was bewitched by the demons and eventually died tragically at their hands..." Her voice was choked with sobs, as if every word was filled with pain and sorrow.
Xiang Yuxin raised his shaking hand and gently placed it on Fan Linghua's hand, trying to give her some comfort. Fan Linghua's hand was cold and trembling, and she could feel Xiang Yuxin's hand was also trembling slightly.
"The dead are gone, so don't be too sad. Linghua, I came here to talk to you about the recent demon invasion."
Xiang Yuxin took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "I have some friendship with the eldest princess and her husband of Dagan. Maybe I can rely on him to ease the tension with the emperor of Dagan."
Fan Linghua tried hard to hold back the tears in her eyes, nodded vigorously and said, "This is indeed the best choice. This way, we can devote ourselves wholeheartedly to the battle against the demons."
Her eyes revealed firmness and determination, as if she was ready to face any difficulties and obstacles.
At this sad moment, a strong sense of responsibility surged in Fan Linghua's heart. She knew that only by unity and concerted efforts could they resist the invasion of the demons and protect their homeland.
So, she resolutely put aside her personal grief and decided to work hand in hand with Xiang Yuxin to fight together for the bright future of Da Chu.
Xiang Yuxin nodded slightly to show his agreement.
"Well, Linghua, I'll have to trouble you and General Fan Tian this time. In this battle, we must unite as one, because not only the fate of Da Chu, but also the fate of the entire human race is in our hands!"
Fan Linghua nodded again, then quickly calmed down and immediately set off for the front line. At the same time, Xiang Yuxin took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter with a focused look, and sent it solemnly over.
