Chapter 17: Grief

The Prime Minister's Mansion in Da Nao City

After Du Hongcheng left, Wang Nan cultivated quietly for a while. Suddenly! He snapped and stood up suddenly.

Trembling all over, he said again and again: "Impossible, impossible, I must be too nervous." ”

As he spoke, he sat down cross-legged again, but he couldn't go back to his previous state of cultivation. He got up again in annoyance, pacing back and forth in the room.

Just now, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart, as if something important had been lost, and the first thing he thought of was that something had happened to Modrytos! However, with Yao Bin and Judiwen here, what could happen? But his mind had been restless, and his cultivation could not continue. That's it, Wang Nan secretly thought that he would go to the Soul Hall to check it, and it would be considered a peace of mind for himself.

After casually putting on a few clothes, Wang Nan came out of the mansion and went straight to the palace.

The guards of the palace were puzzled, it was already so late, why did Prime Minister Wang Nan still enter the palace. However, they didn't dare to ask, because the terrifying aura coming from Wang Nan's body was very different from the usual gentle and elegant. Anyone can see that Wang Nan's mood is very bad, Wang Nan at this moment is like a pile of burning dry wood, and the guards are afraid that they will become a role that adds fuel to the fire. Wang Nan walked all the way to the Soul Hall in the palace, and the guards of the Soul Hall were originally resting, but when they saw that Wang Nan was coming, they hurriedly got up.

"Prime Minister, it's so late, what's the important thing about you coming to the Soul Palace?"

Wang Nan shook his head.

"It's not a big deal, I just feel something in my heart and want to come and investigate. Wang Nan replied.

"Your Excellency wants to investigate, but it's already so late......" Before the guard could finish his words, he was rudely interrupted by Wang Nan.

"Open! I order you to open it for me right away!"

The guards saw that Prime Minister Wang, who was usually rarely angry, actually became angry, and did not dare to say anything more and opened the door of the palace directly.

"You stay outside. Wang Nan commanded.

"Yes. ”

With that, Wang Nan stepped into the hall, his gaze swept over every soul lamp.

Yao Bin is fine, Zhu Diwen is fine, Qian Yangyang is fine, Du Hongcheng is fine, and Zhang Yuan is not ......

Wang Nan rubbed his eyes vigorously, no..... This can't be! This ........

Wang Nan didn't want to believe what he saw, he stared at the soul lamp carefully, trying to find a little light from it, but it was in vain, he couldn't find it, the soul lamp was really extinguished, there was no trace of light, it was completely extinguished, the most completely extinguished, and it was extremely dark.

Wang Nan knelt on the ground weakly, holding Zhang Yuan's soul lamp in his hand. Tears had already covered the hem of his shirt at some point.

Wang Nan looked excitedly, but after a while, he retracted his gaze, it was not a soul revival, it was just a reflection under the light of other soul lights.

Yes!!!

Wang Nan couldn't control his emotions anymore, and he screamed in despair, like a wounded male wolf.

Zhang Yuan.... Zhang Yuan.... ZHANG Yuan..... At this time, every scene between them and each other passed in front of Wang Nan's eyes, he couldn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it, this was the end, and he left like this. The night before departure, they still remember the detailed conversation all night, but after only a few days, they were separated forever.

The guards hurriedly rushed in when they heard Wang Nan's screams, and Wang Nan, who was already crying with red eyes, lowered his head and held Zhang Yuan's soul lamp like a treasure.

"Who let you in!Get out!Get out of here!" he roared roughly, and a force blasted the guard out.

The guard fell heavily outside the temple, his eyes full of horror, and he stood outside the hall at a loss.

Holding Zhang Yuan's soul lamp, Wang Nan's eyes gradually became foggy.

"Zhang Yuan, you are such a bastard, what about the life and death we said we would live and die together, and fight for the future of the empire? You have forgotten, you ran away like this, you are really a villain. As he spoke, tears burst out of Wang Nan's eyes.

"Zhang Yuan, you speak, I beg you, you are talking to me, okay, don't scare me, you're fine, right?"

Wang Nan called Zhang Yuan over and over again, but Zhang Yuan couldn't answer him anymore. Wang Nan knelt lonely in the soul hall, put Zhang Yuan's soul lamp in front of him, and knelt all night.

Early the next morning, Wang Nan gently wiped his eyes.

"My brother, go well, may you live better in another world, goodbye, you can rest assured that the future you are looking forward to, the empire you are looking forward to will definitely come!"

After saying this, Wang Nan walked out of the soul hall with Zhang Yuan's soul lamp.

He glanced at the guards standing outside the door, and calmly ordered: "Close the door of the Soul Palace, guard it, and inspect it every three days in the future, and report the results to me." ”

"Yes, sir. The guards replied in unison.

Wang Nan nodded with satisfaction, turned around and left.

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wang Nan summoned the imperial official and ordered him to prepare for Zhang Yuan's funeral, and then he entered the palace again to meet the dove.

The dove has little affection for Zhang Yuan, after all, there is little contact between the two, but as a member of the empire, Zhang Yuan's death, the dove still attaches great importance to it, so in the name of the empress, the dove ordered a state funeral according to the highest etiquette of the empire, and the official is increased by one level and named the king. The rest of the specific matters will be prepared by Wang Nan.

"The festival mourns and changes, General Zhang has made outstanding achievements, and he has died for the empire, Wang Nan, don't be too sad, I ....."

Gu Yu thought for a while, but still comforted Wang Nan a few words.

"Zhang Yuan is dead, his ideals have not been realized, and I have no time to grieve for him, because I still have to continue to fight for his ideals. Wang Nan said calmly.

Hearing such an answer, the dove was a little surprised, but she was not sure what to say.

"That's good, if Prime Minister Wang Cheng doesn't have anything else, please step down. ”

Wang Nan received the order of thanksgiving, withdrew from the main hall, and began to prepare for Zhang Yuan's funeral.

Port of Modlitos

With the joint efforts of Yao Bin and Du Hongcheng, all three archbishops of the Church were captured and surrendered to the Empire, so that the six bishops of the Church and the rest of the priests and priests and several other monks were also surrendered to the Empire, which made Du Hongcheng more happy than the capture of the port of Modritos.

"How's the Sixth Wizard Legion doing?" Qian Yangyang asked his monks.

"Report to the general, there are Lord Judiwen and General Zhang Yuan in the direction of the Sixth Wizard Legion, and the front has come to report that it has won and is collecting prisoners. ”

Qian Yangyang nodded, and drove the army into the port of Modeletos.

As soon as he entered the city, he was stunned.

"Hongcheng !!"

He rushed straight to the familiar figure, and the two hugged tightly. After a long time, the two separated.

"You're in a hurry, where have you been all these days!"

Qian Yangyang looked at Du Hongcheng excitedly, and punched Du Hongcheng as he spoke.

Du Hongcheng caught this punch with a smile.

"That day the Inquisition attacked, I was locked by a sudden attack, and I thought I was going to die, but at the last moment, I was saved by the machine spirit of the Purple Cloud Cave, and when I got to the cave, I was moved, so I began to break through with all my strength, and I broke through to the four-phase level by luck, after breaking through, I came out of the cave after a little rest, I didn't expect it to be so long, so I made you worried"

"You're a ......... I can only congratulate you!" Qian Yangyang congratulated Du Hongcheng on reaching the fourth phase level.

Du Hongcheng waved his hand.
