Chapter 1363 - 1443: Like a Loyal Big Dog
His life shouldn’t have been like this.
Su Lang bowed his head, unable to help falling into deep thought. If he hadn’t met Qinghe as a child, perhaps he wouldn’t have this Inner Strength, nor this martial arts, and wouldn’t have encountered those humiliating things.
Once both a teacher and father and friend, the more love there was once, the more hatred there is now.
He once valued him so much, treated him as his sole reliance, considered him as his family, regarded him as everything. But how can a person change so easily?
Was he blinded by power, or perhaps something else?
Indeed, he probably will never be able to understand Qinghe in this lifetime, and can never forgive the harm he caused him.
Not far away, Liang Haoming was staring seriously at the Medicine Gu larvae soaked in Potion. He tugged lightly at his wife’s hem.
This man, even though most of the time he is a mighty and tall man, and seems very cold, yet some inadvertent cute little actions are quite charming and childlike.
"How long?" He spat out each word slowly, fortunately, having been together for a while, his wife had become a "four-machine reader", even if the four husbands were sparing with words, she could understand the meaning of Haoming’s sparse words.
"Ten days. It’s alive now, but the medicinal properties are insufficient. It needs to soak for another ten days before it can be implanted into my body. By then, if nothing unexpected happens, my body will gradually improve."
Liang Haoming nodded slightly. When his wife turned to do other things, he nervously guarded the small Medicine Gu, staring intently at the insect without blinking.
Su Lang glanced at him, also expressionless, but inwardly scoffed, tut, how stupid!
Like a loyal big dog.
Liang Haoming was the first to receive the message from Yun Ge and was also the first to hurry to the Capital, while the others came a bit slower, mainly because they were scattered in various regions, near and far.
Now, on the official road to the Capital, a man dressed in red, with a pair of long, charming phoenix eyes full of allure.
He traveled alone, urging his horse forward, not taking any attendants. Shujun estimated the journey to be quite long, probably over half a month before reaching the Capital.
His heart was incredibly anxious, truly wishing he could sprout a pair of wings on his back, best if he were an Immortal, able to move to his wife’s side with just a thought.
The horse had been running for several days, the man and horse both were exhausted.
Seeing that the sky was about to darken and looking at the endless road ahead, Shujun dismounted, wrapping the reins around a crooked little tree, then opened his pack to dig out a hard piece of dry rations.
Ah, in this heavy snow and bone-chilling winter, it’s too cold, the dry ration was hard enough, now frozen like a stone, nearly broke a tooth trying to bite into it.
Very bland and flavorless, after a couple of bites, he lost his appetite. Shujun gathered some branches, lit a small fire pit, then sat in the snow, stretching out his hands by the fire to warm them.
He was worried about many people, most about his wife, and secondly about Yue Ning in Dongdi. How big was Yue Ning’s belly now? And his elder brother, his brother was in the Golden Triangle, a border area, recently heard that heavy fighting had been going on, Dajin’s strong army fiercely attacking, the world was becoming increasingly unstable.
The Imperial Court’s treasury was empty, the people’s taxes were increasingly heavy, and more and more people were becoming bandits.
War, truly a drain on wealth and a burden to the people.
