Daji's Parents
The Su Wan expressed their heartfelt admiration.
This dagger was a gift Su Hu gave her when they first met more than twenty years ago.
Su Wan never let this dagger be drawn.
It was simply because he had once said, "When the treasured sword appears, it will surely drink blood."
Therefore, she didn't want such a beautiful gift to be tainted with dirty blood.
Therefore, it has never been drawn.
This was the first time she had truly appreciated the precious dagger before her.
The dagger before me was as thin as a cicada's wing and as still as autumn water; it was truly beautiful under the sunlight.
In particular, the blade itself emitted a hazy, cold, bluish light, which made the dagger appear even more like a divine weapon.
The glint of the blade reflected on Su Wan's face, creating an eerie and alluring beauty.
She recalled the naive and utterly unskilled poem Su Hu had composed when they met for the second time.
I fell in love with Su Wan at first sight!
Seeing you only intensifies my longing for you!
Ten years of sentiment, a hundred years of memories!
I cannot bear to look back, nor can I Sever Longing!
He himself had even mocked Su Hu for quite some time.
They clearly lack the skill, yet they insist on trying to appear cultured and refined.
Even so, I felt exceptionally sweet at the time.
The two of them named the dagger "Sever Longing."
Little did he expect that he would now use this dagger to end his own life.
That's actually quite funny.
Looking at her lover, who had reached the end of his road, Su Wan's eyes still revealed deep reluctance and longing.
She couldn't bear to part with the man in front of her.
Perhaps men feel the same way?
She smiled, but tears streamed down her face.
She didn't know whether she was crying and laughing at the same time, or laughing and crying.
But today's tears are especially sweet.
Her fiery red lips licked away the tears at the corners of her mouth, revealing a strange, lingering affection.
She picked up the dagger, aimed it at her chest, and plunged it in.
Su Hu was taken aback and immediately grabbed the brightly colored dagger.
Despite the blood flowing freely, his eyes remained calm and serene.
Although he had made some harsh words, he felt a deep sense of reluctance if the woman in front of him were to actually die before his eyes.
Just as I was about to say something, a loud bang suddenly rang out.
The two looked in the direction of the sound.
But they found that a handsome and extraordinary middle-aged man had walked in.
The man was dressed in dark armor and wore a huge dark helmet.
He held a golden spear.
Beneath him was an extremely handsome and divine bull-like beast.
Upon seeing this person, Su Hu's heart sank deeper and deeper.
The other party was his closest friend, the renowned and highly respected King Wu Cheng Huang Feihu, who was revered throughout the Yin Shang Martial King Cheng Who Protects the Nation.
Su Hu quietly pulled Su Wan behind him.
He then cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to Huang Feihu.
"So it's General Huang, the Prince of King Wucheng. It's been several years since we last met. How have you been?"
Huang Feihu, whose face was usually cold and stern, softened his gaze slightly when he saw Su Hu.
A look of regret gradually appeared in his eyes.
"Lord Su, why have you come to this?"
"I simply cannot imagine that you would dare to rebel. Why would you do such a thing?"
"His Majesty has always valued you highly, and Jizhou is an ancient and powerful city, extremely prosperous since ancient times."
"My lord, you hold the reins of Jizhou; wouldn't it be better to start a carefree life? Why bother with this?"
Huang Feihu and Su Hu of Jizhou had a deep friendship.
Now that the two have met, Huang Feihu feels a pang of guilt.
He simply couldn't understand why the other person would do that.
Jizhou is an ancient and powerful city, a strategic location that has been fought over by military strategists since ancient times.
With his powerful army and the support of Jizhou, wouldn't it be wonderful for Su Hu to live a carefree and leisurely life?
Now they insist on rebelling; they've really squandered a winning hand.
Seeing this, Su Hu also sighed slightly.
"General Huang, this matter is not entirely my fault. Su Hu is a descendant of loyal and virtuous officials; how could he possibly rebel so easily?"
"It was only because I listened to the slander of petty men, who believed that His Majesty was shameless, lustful, incompetent, and cruel, and had even offended several gods and Buddhas, causing turmoil in the Yin Shang, that I rebelled."
Upon hearing this, Huang Feihu was instantly enraged.
"Nonsense! His Majesty is an extremely wise ruler, with the potential to restore the prosperous era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."
"Every action he took was wise; he was truly a wise, courageous, and Wushuang emperor."
"Especially recently, with the implementation of numerous new policies, the suffering of the people has been relieved. What a blessing this is!"
"And where does this talk of incompetence come from? You powerless fools, knowing your mistakes but refusing to admit them, are plotting a rebellion in public. Your crimes deserve death; it is truly heartbreaking!"
Upon hearing Huang Feihu's reprimand, Su Hu suddenly smiled and said nothing.
At this point, saying anything would be futile, so it's better to say nothing.
Su Wan, standing behind Su Hu, turned slightly to the side, revealing her figure, and bowed to Huang Feihu from afar.
"I have long admired the name of General Huang Feihu, the Martial King Cheng Who Protects the Nation the Nation. People say that General Huang is a pillar of the nation, whose power shakes the world. Now that I have seen him, I can confirm that his reputation is well-deserved."
Su Wan had long admired Huang Feihu.
Because she knew Huang Feihu's wife; she had followed her husband to Chaoge and had interacted with Huang Feihu's wife before.
The two ate, lived, and traveled together for more than ten days, and had already become close friends.
At that time, Huang Feihu was not in Chaoge and did not know much about these things.
Later, Huang Feihu also heard his wife mention this extraordinary woman.
The fact that they met again in this way left Huang Feihu feeling quite disheartened.
"Feihu had heard Madam mention you before, but to see you in this state upon our meeting is truly heartbreaking!"
"Why didn't you advise Su Hu against his rash actions?"
Su Wan smiled slightly.
"A woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent; how can I possibly interfere in my husband's affairs?"
"When a husband does something, a woman should simply cooperate. Even if it means going to the Yellow Springs, what is there to fear?"
Looking at the smiling woman, Huang Feihu was momentarily speechless, not knowing what to say.
At that very moment.
Suddenly, three figures slowly approached from outside.
The first person was a tall, slender young man who strode in with a powerful stride.
He was flanked by two beautiful women, one on each side.
Upon seeing the three enter, Huang Feihu, Su Hu, and the others present were all taken aback.
Turning my head, I saw none other than the current Human Emperor.
Huang Feihu quickly cupped his hands in greeting.
Because he was wearing armor, it was inconvenient for him to kneel. After bowing, he quickly stepped aside.
Su Hu was naturally filled with emotion upon seeing the Human Emperor again.
Although the two are now on different sides, after a moment's hesitation, they still knelt down and buried their heads deep in the ground.
The same was true for Su Wan behind them.
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
