Chapter Fifty-Nine—The Heroic Soul Lives On

The night when the lights are on shows a hint of prosperity, it was originally a rare good season since the beginning of winter, and the people have walked into the streets or a small stroll. Generally speaking, the people on the entire Demon Spirit Continent are very comfortable. Truth be told, no one wants war.

As the tide crashes against the stones on the shore, there is a sound of waves crashing on the shore. A man in a black robe and a bronze mask on his head stood on the shore all the time, quietly listening to the sound of the waves crashing against the shore. His gaze remained fixed on the sky, which seemed incomparably bright and clear today.

After another while, the middle-aged man with a bronze mask on his head sighed softly. In an instant, three Assassins dressed in black night clothes, with their mouths gagged with seals and two short blades, jumped up from under a few rocks not far away. The three assassins knelt down on one knee and asked, "My subordinates don't know what the sect leader summoned my subordinates?"

The person in front of him, known as the "Sect Master", said in a deep voice: "You have informed me of the brothers in Zhongcheng, Xia Yu, the military pillar of the Qi Kingdom, has passed away, and this situation is the best opportunity for us, and we must let them do what they are asked to do, if it is not done, you just let them know the consequences."

"Yes!" the three Assassins standing in front of the Master agreed, and then disappeared into the darkness. In the same place, it was still just the middle-aged man with a bronze mask standing in place. Slowly, a sentence came out of his mouth gently, "Hmph, Xia Yu's death is the moment of your life and death, I don't know if you are ready?"

The Demon Spirit Continent is now in a calm darkness, but it is destined to happen extraordinary things. The star fell, but there was a mournful cry in Xuancheng, the capital of Qi State. Many unreasonable people rubbed their sleepy eyes and walked out of the house to see the situation. Every family has heard that the one who passed away was the first prince of the Qi Kingdom, Duke Xia Yu!

Duke Xia Yu is only fifty-seven years old now, and there are actually not many ordinary people who have died at this age. The average life expectancy of people is about sixty years old, and Duke Xia Yu has been marching and fighting since he was a child, and his physique must be several times better than that of ordinary people. The people couldn't accept that Duke Xia Yu died so suddenly!

"What! Duke Xia Yu has passed away" In Xinyi Alley in the north direction of Xuancheng City, outside the Prime Minister's Mansion with a golden plaque, an old man who looked very old shook his body violently and sat down directly on the ground. The black gauze hat on his head was crooked, but he didn't tidy it up, just muttered to himself: "When did you leave?"

A young man dressed as a family member who came to deliver the message in front of him hurriedly went up and helped up the old man in a moon-white robe who fell to the ground, and said silently: "Lord Li is Duke Xia Yu, who went peacefully at noon today, and he was still chanting his daughter's name before leaving."

This old man wearing a moon-white robe and a black gauze hat on his head is Li Dan, the current prime minister of Qi State. When he went down to court today, he was left behind by Xuan Lejun for the first time, and Xuan Lejun asked him to talk about his views on the recent series of actions of the feudal country taking the initiative to seek peace.

Li Dan burst into tears at that time! Li Dan had indeed not seen such a Xuan Le Jun for a long time, and Li Dan had a desire to talk at that time, plus he had a lot of thoughts about this matter. So much so that when it came to the evening, Li Dan said goodbye and returned. Who knew that as soon as Li Dan returned to his door, he saw a family member who came to spread the news. Hearing the news of Xia Yu's death, Li Dan couldn't help but feel sad.

Li Dan is also an old figure who has been in the officialdom of Qi for nearly 30 years, and he cooperated with Xia Yu in a very tacit manner. Although Xia Yu had retired ten years ago, there was less interaction between the two of them. However, the feelings back then were still there, so much so that after Li Dan heard the news, he suddenly felt sad in his heart, and his tears unconsciously stayed.

At half a ring, Li Dan wiped away his tears and said in a deep voice: "Please help me tell Duke Xia Yu's family, I will definitely find Concubine Yun, I promise"

The family said goodbye and left, Li Dan slowly adjusted his hat, and then walked into his house with slow steps.

That night, Li Dan didn't sleep all night, and as soon as the weather dawned the next day, Li Dan took his family and went straight to Xia Yu's mansion. He wanted to send Xia Yu's loyal bones to Xuan Lejun, so that Xuan Lejun could order a thick burial.

After a short time, Li Dan had already taken his own family, and Mo about a dozen family members ran all the way to the door of Duke Xia Yu's mansion. The door of Duke Xia Yu's mansion, which had been sealed for a long time, had now been quietly opened, and the two young men wearing plain cloth mourning clothes who were guarding the door bowed down to welcome Li Dan in.

Li Dan walked around the Jiuqu corridor, and along the way, he saw several female servants and male servants in mourning clothes coming and going washing the surrounding corridors. At the end, in the room where Xia Yu lived, a young man in a plain white robe wore a bundle of white silk scarves on his head. His eyes were red, but he was whispering to a girl next to him who was also wearing a plain white dress. The girl covered her face and just sobbed there.

This pair of teenagers and girls are naturally Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue, who originally wanted to visit their grandfather Xia Yu. But he didn't expect Xia Yu to know that his limit was approaching, so he actually knocked Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue unconscious. So that they don't see what they looked like when they left. Indeed, Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue are still young, if they experience life and death too early. Xia Yu was still afraid that they had suffered too many things that they would inevitably experience in life when they were children. So, Xia Yu still chose to leave like this.

Even so, Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue still couldn't accept this matter. They still had some pimples in their hearts about such a situation, looking at Xia Yu, who was lying calmly on the bed, having lost his vitality. Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue couldn't help but shed tears.

"Grandfather" However, Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue didn't cry much, they saw that Xia Yu left a letter for the two of them, which was also specially left for Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue. When Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue read this letter, they felt more guilty, but also some additional responsibilities.

Xia Yu stated in the letter that Feng Yuchong would find several very disordered energies in his body. These abilities are also the power that Xia Yu has learned all his life, and Xia Yu passed on all these internal forces to Feng Yuchong at the last moment of his life. And in the letter, he said how to deal with these internal forces. And told Feng Yuchong that as long as he can absorb these internal forces of his life, he can reach a very high state, or even surpass him.

On the other hand, Xia Yu also thanked Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue for their companionship in the last moments of his life, and he was also proud of his ability to rescue his grandson at the last moment of his life. Xia Yu hoped that they would be able to continue on the path they had identified. However, Xia Yu also made a reluctant request, hoping that Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue would be able to find their aunt Xia Yun in the future.

At this point, Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue will look for it after all, without Xia Yu saying it. They are still full of curiosity about this aunt Xia Yun. Last time, Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing also sent them a letter, saying that they were going to go deep into the feudal country to find Jiang Mingcheng, the alliance leader of the Demon Spirit Secret Envoy, and by the way, they also wanted to find Xia Yun's trace in the feudal country.

In this way, Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue were worried that Feng Shanshan was coming, Feng Shanshan's whereabouts are unknown now, if Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing were not in the bamboo forest, but went deep into the country side by side. So where will Feng Shanshan go? Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue would naturally never have thought that Feng Shanshan was happily living in the Lu family, the first family of the Qi Kingdom, and slowly dug into the fact that the Lu family was secretly selling weapons.

Xia Yu's eyes were closed, but the smile on his face was extremely peaceful. Several spirit runes and immortal talismans had been hung beside his bed, and a lot of white strips of cloth had also been hung. No one was talking in this mourning hall, and everyone who came looked at Xia Yu's body with a reverent gaze.

The figure of Li Dan, the prime minister of Qi State, had also appeared outside the mourning hall, and he assigned his subordinates to guard outside the mourning hall. He just took two men carrying simple brackets and walked slowly into the mourning hall. His face, too, inadvertently, was filled with a touch of muddy tears.

"May I ask who you are" Gao Hanyue and Feng Yuchong saw Li Dan who walked in, they didn't know this prime minister Li Dan who was on a par with their grandfather Xia Yu back then.

Li Dan smiled bitterly lightly, he didn't want to put on his identity to suppress Xia Yu's relatives in front of him. It seems that these two children seem to be the children of Xia Yu's eldest daughter, and Li Dan is naturally embarrassed to show his identity.

"My old friend, may you go all the way, and I hope that your heroic spirit can shine for all generations," Li Dan clasped his hands together, held them in front of his chest, and muttered with some reverence in his mouth.
