Chapter 285 The Father and Son's Dialogue
How could I say such a thing as Huangfu Sixuan's friend?
At this moment, Murong Yishuang felt endless shame that permeated her mind and body.
"No, I did all of this for her own good!"
"Yes, that's it. Everything I did was to save her life..."
Murong Yishuang comforted herself in this way.
She would never admit that she was the one who betrayed her friends.
Watching Murong Yishuang's expression change every second, Ying Chen couldn't help but marvel at how a person could make such a wide range of expressions.
"Alright, we'll see what happens when General Huo returns. There's no point in discussing it here!"
Ying Chen comforted Murong Yishuang.
"Ok!"
Murong Yishuang nodded obediently.
"Your Majesty, then this concubine shall take her leave..."
Murong Yishuang felt she had no face to stay any longer, so she quickly bowed to Ying Chen and then fled from my study as if escaping.
Ying Chen watched Murong Yishuang's departing figure and shook his head helplessly.
.....................
Emperor Huangfu's reign.
Upon receiving news of the Qin army's deployment on the border, the entire Huangfu Emperor's court was placed under martial law.
As the capital city, the seat of the Huangfu Dynasty, was filled with a large number of troops, and the entire Heavenly Dragon Knights were deployed to patrol the capital.
Every now and then you can see powerful figures flying across the sky.
The people in the capital were also affected by the tense atmosphere, and everyone felt insecure.
"Father, why is the Qin Dynasty attacking us?"
In an ordinary house in the capital, a little boy looked up at his father with innocent eyes, his gaze full of confusion.
Just a while ago, her father told her that the Great Qin Dynasty and their Huangfu Dynasty were both human dynasties, and that the two dynasties were as close as brothers and would never go to war.
But now, the Qin Dynasty has suddenly amassed troops on the border to attack his own dynasty, which has left his little mind somewhat bewildered.
His father paused slightly upon hearing his words, unsure of what to say.
Even he himself didn't know why the Qin Dynasty was attacking them.
Now the entire Xuanxing Domain is under the rule of the human race, with two imperial dynasties governing each side. Without the oppression of foreign races, wouldn't it be better to live together peacefully?
Why must we start a war?
If the two sides fight, no matter who wins, won't it be a loss for the human race?
Countless questions arose in his mind, but how could he possibly understand the thoughts of those in power? He was just an ordinary citizen!
"Father, why aren't you saying anything?"
The little boy looked at his father with a puzzled expression and asked in a dazed tone.
Hearing his child's words, the man tried his best to make his tone gentle: "Child, you must know that both the Great Qin and the Huangfu Dynasty are imperial dynasties of our human race. They will protect us. So, whether you become a member of the Huangfu Dynasty or the Great Qin in the future, you must cultivate diligently and repay the court..."
"do you know?"
The little boy, somewhat confused by his father's words, looked at him with a puzzled expression before nodding firmly and saying, "Father, rest assured, I will cultivate diligently, become strong, protect you and Mother, and safeguard humanity..."
The boy's firm words brought a smile to the man's face.
He knew that if this war really broke out, the chances of the Huangfu Dynasty winning were less than 10%, and he was very likely to be summoned to the front line by the Dynasty.
Although he was just a minor Foundation Establishment cultivator.
If the Great Qin Dynasty were to unify the entire Xuanxing Domain by then, he did not want his children to resent the Great Qin Dynasty.
In his view, both the Qin Dynasty and the Huangfu Dynasty were guardian deities of the human race.
Without them, these ordinary humans would only become breeding machines and food for the demon race and other races.
He didn't want his children to hate them.
Such scenes occurred throughout the reign of Emperor Huangfu. Of course, just as some people told their children not to hate the Qin Dynasty, others told their children to hate the Qin Dynasty.
These people are basically loyalists of the Huangfu Dynasty. They don't care about the greater good of humanity; they only know that they have the life they have today because of the Huangfu Dynasty.
It has nothing to do with humans.
Inside the main hall of the imperial palace.
Apart from the patriarch of the Huangfu Dynasty who was going to the Molan Domain, everyone who could come had come.
At this moment, more than ten figures were sitting in the main hall, all of them Mahayana stage experts from the Huangfu Dynasty.
Huangfu Sixuan and Huangfu Zhan sat at the very top.
"Zhan'er, I never expected that you would break through to the peak of the Mahayana stage, and you are only one step away from the mysterious Tribulation stage. This is truly a cause for celebration!"
A senior member of the royal family looked at Huangfu Zhan, feeling the faint pressure emanating from him, and said with a smile.
"It was just luck!"
Huangfu Zhan said modestly.
"This is no fluke. If your foundation hadn't been destroyed back then, you would most likely be a Tribulation Transcending stage expert by now. How could the Great Qin be so arrogant and domineering!"
The old ancestor spoke solemnly, his eyes filled with anger.
Huangfu Zhan's cultivation level was the strongest in the tens of thousands of years of Huangfu Dynasty's history. If the Tianhu Dynasty hadn't used tricks to destroy his foundation, Huangfu Zhan wouldn't be in his current state, looking even older than these old immortals who have lived for thousands of years.
"Third Uncle, what happened back then is in the past. Besides, hasn't the Heavenly Fox Dynasty already been destroyed?"
"I'm fine now, let bygones be bygones!"
Huangfu Zhan, however, was quite carefree and comforted the old ancestor.
"Hmph! I'm still furious. Although the Heavenly Fox Dynasty has fallen, its royal family suffered almost no losses; they were all taken away by the main branch of the Heavenly Fox Clan..."
The old ancestor snorted coldly.
