He could feel himself being assimilated into this era step by step. He could see this process but did not resist it. After all, whether he wanted to or not, he had been a part of this era since the day he arrived here. It was better to be able to integrate into it than to be excluded.
But it is impossible for a person to completely abandon his origins. The past eighteen and a half years have influenced every aspect of Xiao Rong's life. He has many thoughts, but whether these thoughts are sincere or not can only be determined after he puts them into action.
Qu Yunmie put down his weapon, and the Xueyinchou Spear was placed on the ground with a dull clang. Qu Yunmie also stood up. He looked at Xiao Rong's somewhat depressed face and asked him again: "Then why are you asking me if you can fight in the battle?"
Xiao Rong glanced at him and replied unhappily: "Because I don't want to be too far away from you."
Hearing this, Qu Yunmie suddenly pursed his lips, but he still couldn't help and a laugh escaped from his throat.
Xiao Rong: "…What are you laughing at?"
What's so funny?!
Seeing Xiao Rong's angry expression, Qu Yunmie wanted to laugh again, but this time he successfully held it back. He made his face serious, and then he said, "Because I was the one who had this idea in the past, and now you and I have switched places, I--"
He was still thinking about the next wording, but Xiao Rong had already laughed: "You feel that things have changed. It turns out that I have come to this day."
Qu Yunmie: “…”
Although what Xiao Rong said was similar to what Qu Yunmie thought, Qu Yunmie still wanted to justify himself: "I still feel uncomfortable here."
Xiao Rong looked at him and tapped his own chest with his finger.
Qu Yunmie: "It's good to be worried and missed by others, but if I'm also worried and missed that person, it won't be such a good feeling. No one wants to end this war more than me now. Ah Rong, I promise you that I will not leave your sight for the first six days. You just need to look forward and you will see where I am. On the seventh day, I will definitely return victorious. I will cut off the heads of the Xianbei general and the Rouran man and bring them back to you so that you can feel relieved."
Xiao Rong: “…”
What does he need two heads for?
Blinking, Xiao Rong suddenly asked: "Where is the Xianbei Emperor? Where are you going to take his head?"
To commemorate your parents? Then take those two with you, good things come in threes. …
However, Qu Yunmie shook his head: "I have no intention of killing the Xianbei emperor."
Xiao Rong blinked slowly, and then his eyes widened.
You didn't even let the little emperor of the Central Plains go, and now you're planning to let him go when he comes to the Xianbei?!
Killing or not is not that important, because the Xianbei are gone, and even if the emperor survives, he will be under house arrest. Xiao Rong was very puzzled: "I remember you were talking about killing the Xianbei emperor before, why did you change your mind now? What do you want to do?"
Qu Yunmie smiled at Xiao Rong and said, "I'll tell you later."
Xiao Rong: “…” Quite mysterious.
Xiao Rong looked aside, not knowing what he was thinking. Qu Yunmie waited for a while, and seeing his expression at this moment, he couldn't help but ask, "A Rong, do you still believe me?"
Xiao Rong's jaw moved, he half turned his head, and then slowly raised his eyelids: "If you come back safely, I will believe you. If you don't come back--"
Qu Yunmie consciously said the second half of the sentence for him: "Even if you become a ghost, you will not let me go."
Xiao Rong looked at him and laughed for some unknown reason. Facing Qu Yunmie's puzzled gaze, Xiao Rong shook his head slightly.
He said, "No, I understand some truths now. It's not your fault that someone wants to harm you, so I don't have to bother with you even after death. If you don't come back, then our fate in this life is over. All the past has disappeared since the moment your heart stopped beating. Why should I bother with you? If you really don't come back, then I wish you peace and happiness in your next life, and nothing to do with the military. As for me, you don't have to worry about me anymore, because I won't be in your next life anymore."
Qu Yunmie's expression changed, and Xiao Rong knew that he was angry, but he still wanted to finish the last sentence: "I am not threatening you, but this is the truth. If there is an afterlife, I will definitely ask everyone I can, or even gods, to help me not recognize you anymore."
Qu Yunmie looked at him for a long while, then he pulled up the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Great."
"When it comes to hurtful words, no one in this world can rival you."
At this point, he laughed again: "No, maybe when you speak hurtfully, some people can overcome you, but when it comes to hurting me with your words, no one can beat you."
Xiao Rong also looked at him. No matter what Qu Yunmie said, he remained unmoved.
Qu Yunmie lowered his eyes and took two breaths before speaking to Xiao Rong again: "I want the fate of this life, and I also want the fate of the next life. Whether we are entangled or not is not up to you alone. In front of heaven and earth, you and I are no different. What you can ask for, I can ask for too. Guess who will win between you and me in terms of stubbornness?"
After saying that, he picked up the Xueyinchou Spear on the ground, and finally smiled at Xiao Rong: "I don't want to fight with you, but I must win this matter. I don't care whether it is a bad fate or a good fate. Since this is my fate, no one can take it away from me, not even you. What do you think the Zhenbei Army is? Can you leave after you come here?"
"Seven days later, the gates of Shengle City will be open. Mr. Xiao, I hope to see you in Shengle City when the sun rises. Remember, don't be late."
Afterwards, Qu Yunmie turned around and left. His steps were different from usual, a little heavier. It seemed that he was not as calm as he appeared.
Xiao Rong watched him walk out, and only after he had been gone for a while did he say to the empty king's tent, "I will go."
As long as you give me this chance.
