LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 200 Road
"You, you are talking nonsense, we are not going to fight the Yan Kingdom!" Lily quickly reacted and immediately denied loudly and firmly.
Su An glanced at her contemptuously: "You've already been stepped on the cat's tail, and you still have such a tough mouth. You are indeed a ridiculous little brat."
Lily suddenly pulled out the gleaming dagger: "I advise you to speak up."
Su An was not afraid: "I can even say nothing."
Lily thought for a while and put away the dagger, "Then you might as well say it. Anyway, you are idle. It would be too boring not to talk."
She pretended to cough twice, pretending that she didn't really care and just listened to the gossip, "You idiot, go on."
Su An didn't even bother to raise her eyebrows: "What should you continue?"
Lily said: "Why do you think we want to go to war with the Yan State? We started a war in the Land of Chaos before, but it was just to confuse the Yan State authorities and provide cover for entering the mountain ruins. We also blocked the roads and restricted the Yan State. The intention of the extraordinary person to enter the Changling Mountains.
"Now that we have obtained many treasures in the ruins, the matter is completed. Where will there be a big battle?"
Su An sneered: "Because of the harvest in the ruins, the strength of your monks has reached a higher level. You can equip the border army with various weapons, breaking the long-term balance of strength with the Yan Kingdom's border army.
"What is the purpose of exploring the ruins? To obtain treasures. What is the purpose of obtaining treasures? To improve strength. What is the purpose of improving strength? Of course, it is to defeat the enemy, regain the territory of the demon clan, and rebuild the glory of the demon clan.
"The two sides have been hostile and fighting for two thousand years. When you were weak, you would launch wars from time to time. Now that you have stronger strength, what reason do you have for not attacking Yan?"
Lily was still arrogant: "Even if we get the treasure from the ruins, it will always take time to digest the harvest, and our monks suffered a lot of casualties during the trip to the ruins, so we should take a rest.
"What reason do we have to rush into a war?
"When we complete our preparations and recharge our batteries, and then use our absolute strength advantage to cross the Changling Mountains like an overwhelming force, can the Yan Kingdom still stop us?"
Su An said confidently: "Of course it's because you can't afford to wait.
“Because you were well prepared for this trip to the ruins, the countries noticed it too late and sent the monks too hastily. Most of the treasures were obtained by you, and the improvement in the strength of the North cannot be reversed.
"After the Hundred Years' War, human nations fell into internal wars, competing for hegemony with each other, and entered into a strategic stalemate with the demon clan. This stalemate lasted for more than two thousand years. You took the opportunity to restore your strength.
"For two thousand years, humans have not attacked you because they are busy fighting for internal interests, but the basic reason is that your strength is limited and you do not pose much of a threat.
"Two thousand years have passed. Not only have you regained your strength, but you are now planning the ruins and reaping immeasurable benefits. No matter how slow all human beings are, they should be aware of your danger.
"The conflict between the two races is the overall situation. They are fighting each other to the death, and there is almost no room for relaxation. After this incident, all human countries will definitely unite to either attack the north or strictly guard the borders. Do you want to rest and then go south? It's just a dream.
“So, you can only act as quickly as possible, and you must act as quickly as possible.
"Hurry has the advantage of being fast. It is hard to imagine that Yan State or other countries will start a national war immediately. Under a sudden attack, you can still catch Yan State by surprise!
"Relying on the income from the ruins and concentrating the power of the northern border, what can the Yan State do to resist?
"If nothing else, let's talk about Lingdong Province. You have the basis for previous wars. As long as the army crosses the Changling Mountains, it can directly cross the Land of Chaos and attack major cities!
“As for the Yan State, they thought that the troops you deployed on the front lines of the Land of Chaos were just to block the extraordinary beings, and they had no idea what your next actions would be.
"You have misjudged your strategic intentions, slackened your war preparations, and lost the opportunity. What can the Yan State do to stop you?
"Once the national war suddenly starts, you will at least have a chance to capture the entire Yan Kingdom before the other countries react and form a coalition to take action!"
After saying this in one breath, Su An looked at Lily with burning eyes.
Sure enough, he confirmed from the changes in the other person's expression that his words hit the other person's heart.
Lily pursed her lips and didn't answer.
Of course she wouldn't answer. Only by not speaking could she avoid exposing more thoughts and information. At this moment, Lily looked at Su An with guarded eyes.
There is an obvious hint of panic in the alertness.
Su An's penetrating analysis made her feel fearful. The stupid big man in front of her was really scary. He could understand everything with just that little information. He could definitely be called a wise man.
If the other party is allowed to return to the human kingdom, it must be a powerful threat from the elves!
Su An sighed: "Two thousand years have passed, and the demon clan is finally launching a full-scale counterattack!
"And you, little brat, as the Holy Envoy of the North, you have too many reasons not to miss this battle, so you are more anxious to get out than me, so why are you pretending to be calm and calm?"
Lily was silent for a long time.
At the end, she sighed old-fashionedly, and her eyes at Su An gradually became complicated: "Silly man, let me ask you one last time, will you follow me back to the North?"
Su An shook her head.
Lily's eyes darkened.
Su An said: "We are all human beings and share the same origin.
"Although I don't have the power to change reality now, nor can I turn the war between the two races into friendship, nor can I unite all countries and forces under the same banner, fight like a family for the well-being of all, and push civilization to a new height. Reopening the door into the cosmic age, but...
"The times are progressing, the development of civilization is not based on individual will, and the trend of history is by no means that everyone will perish together.
"So, the future must be bright. One day, we will return to the cosmic era, and even return to the civilization of our home star.
“If the future requires fighting, and if there is no light without bloodshed and sacrifice, then I am willing to bleed and fight for it.
"I will not devote my life to any other purpose than this.
“Whether it’s the Northern Monster Clan or the Yan Kingdom, the current authorities are not the ones that can bring everyone a bright future, at least I don’t believe it.
"So I will not go to the north to help the demon clan kill the people of the Yan Kingdom; nor will I kill the demon clan people with the purpose of preserving the Yan Kingdom.
"This kind of fighting for selfishness is meaningless. My path is not here. Although I am as small as dust, I am willing to walk on the right path.
“Civilization is a big river and a road of thousands of miles. If you don’t accumulate small streams, you won’t be able to become a river. If you don’t accumulate small steps, you won’t be able to reach a thousand miles. Don’t do good deeds because they are small, and don’t do evil because they are small.
"When my bullets are fired, they can only benefit this river, and they must not pollute this sea.
"This is my path, do you understand?"
Lily didn't know whether she understood or not, but she was stunned for a while.
Su An's words naturally reminded her of Li Changan and Ji Ningge.
Isn't the life path that Su An pursues the same path that Li Changan and Ji Ningge took?
Lily bit her lip, and a glimmer of realization came to her mind: Perhaps, only those who inherit the legacy of the sages are qualified to inherit the legacy of the sages, not descendants based on blood or geography.
What belongs to King Li Sheng should belong to Su An.
After tilting her head and thinking for a long time, Lily said seriously: "Although it is empty talk, what you say may not necessarily mean what you think, especially such big words, the possibility of deceiving people should not be too high.
"But I'm willing to try to trust you."
Su An smiled, her smile gentle and clear.
In life, one must always figure out why one lives. Now that he has found the answer to this question and established the direction of his life, his heart is open and his smile is naturally clean.
Lily took out the black jade box and said solemnly: "I can give you half of Li Shengwang's things!"
Su An was speechless: "What do you mean by giving me half? It's obvious that you want to take half by force."
Lily wrinkled the tip of her delicate nose: "King Li Sheng is the Holy King of the Elves. He was raised by the mountains, rivers and people of the North. He cannot have these things without the accumulation of bits and pieces. He should have us both emotionally and rationally." One portion!”
Su An felt that this statement was very reasonable. In comparison, he seemed to have no reason to monopolize the other party's inheritance.
Su An suddenly said: "You have been delaying time, right?"
Lily blinked her big, clear and innocent eyes.
Su An continued: "Although your words and actions may seem silly, they are all superficial and are meant to confuse me so that you can have time to recover from your injuries.
"You are at level eight. Once your body's hidden injuries are fully recovered, you can display your full strength. With my level six cultivation, I think I am no match for you.
“At that time, whatever Li Changan’s things or cores are, they will be yours.
"The reason why you didn't hurt me before, and you were willing to let me follow you into the vault, and you didn't try to get rid of me on the way, is because you were absolutely sure that you would be able to control me when the time comes."
Lily smiled and said: "You are really smart."
She no longer needs these calculations, so she admits it openly.
Su An shook his head and stopped dwelling on this issue: "We'll talk about the objects later. Let's take a look at the secrets of the techniques first. This thing is more convenient to share."
Lily nodded heavily, her twin ponytails swaying, and her excitement was palpable:
"After learning King Li's exercises and reading his secret books, we can all become holy kings in the future. Being invincible in the world is no longer a dream!"
Su An: "..."
He was a little unsure now whether the little kid in front of him was really stupid, or if he was just confusing him with this unattractive look.
Before sharing Li Changan's legacy, Su An had another question that needed to be clarified in advance. He looked at Lily and asked, "Where is the core?"
Lily smiled slyly: "We have been in the core for a long time."
......
Seven days later.
Facing the majestic mountains and the ruins of the peaks surrounding the clouds, Zhu Feng sighed silently. Finally, he took a deep look at the direction of the main peak, waved his hand, and gave the order for the entire team to evacuate.
The surrounding resistance soldiers turned around one after another and tiredly left this battlefield that had lost its value. The mood of everyone was not particularly low, but the morale was indeed not very high.
During this trip to the ruins, the resistance forces paid a high price and gained a lot. Compared to most of the human transcendent teams who died unexpectedly and returned empty-handed, they could at least bring back many ruins weapons.
After Su An and the Holy Envoy entered the vault, they lingered in the stone room for a long time, but could not find a way to enter it.
Afterwards, the black-robed old man led the demon monks to evacuate through the teleportation array. They were unable to stop him in time and did not want to stop him.
After dividing up the treasures of the institute with the extraordinary beings who entered the institute, they explored the stone chamber on the top floor for a while. In the end, they could only accept the reality that Su An and the Holy Envoy had disappeared, and left the ruins that had lost their value according to the original plan.
"Where's Suan?"
Meeting Nangong Buqi, Song Jiao and others outside the ruins, Zhu Feng felt ashamed when faced with Jiang Bai's provocative questions and told the truth about the secret realm of the main peak.
Nangong Buqi touched his chin and thought, "Su An may not have encountered any danger. Their disappearance is probably related to the core of the secret realm."
Song Jiao nodded slightly and said to Zhu Feng and others: "Jiang Bai will cover you and withdraw first. Junior brother and I will wait here for a while."
Zhu Feng thought for a moment: "Holy Envoy Lily probably wouldn't murder Su An. If their disappearance is really related to the core of the secret realm, they might not have walked out, but probably left through the teleportation array. It's probably useless for you to continue waiting here.
"The ruins are over, and the demon clan has gained a lot. Next, the northern army should attack the Yan Kingdom's border army, cross the Changling Mountains and attack the Lingdong Province. Jizhou City will bear the brunt. According to Lao Su's plan, we should go back as soon as possible. Prepare for this national war.”
Song Jiao said calmly: "So I want you to leave immediately. As for my junior brother and I, we will wait here for three days for Su An. If he doesn't come out after three days, we will leave."
Zhu Feng nodded and said no more.
