Chapter 195 Time makes people grow old
In the end, Li Yuan let the gray-haired old man go.
However, that sword also consumed his thousands of years of cultivation, causing serious damage to the gray-haired old man.
However, although the gray-haired old man was angry with Li Yuan, he did not hate him.
There was no hatred between Li Yuan and him.
It was he who began to dislike Li Yuan because of the rumors flying around.
He took the initiative to come down to the earth and created evil karma.
The old man already understood that he was being used as a weapon to test Li Yuan.
Let’s try Li Yuan and see if he can be deceived.
However, it is clear that the results will not reassure those people.
Because the evil sword in Li Yuan's hand still has the ability to kill immortals!
Moreover, Li Yuan is obviously a straightforward person. He doesn't play tricks. If he disagrees with something, he will chop people down without hesitation!
After the gray-haired old man returned to heaven, he told his good friend bluntly that he was able to come back alive because Li Yuan showed mercy.
This is to prevent other friends from failing to make the right decision and being encouraged to descend to the mortal world and seek their own death.
After bringing Li Yuan's words to the group of immortals, the gray-haired old man decided to return to his cave to practice in seclusion, avoid certain things, and not come out again for a thousand years.
He has already sensed that undercurrents are surging in these three realms.
If you join in the fun and meddle in it, you will probably just be fooled by other people's schemes.
Before leaving, the gray-haired old man's face flushed, and he left behind a piece of crystal clear fairy jade.
"This is what I asked for."
"My aura was shaken before and hurt the mortal emperor. I beg the Anshan Mountain God to forgive me."
The gray-haired old man looked very bad. He left after saying a few words and turned around and flew away.
The situation is stronger than the person. No matter whether Li Yuan is good or evil, he will always show mercy. Naturally, he has to show some expression.
Li Yuan calmly accepted the very precious fairy jade.
"You still know something."
He snorted softly and cast a spell to repair the somewhat damaged palace.
Only after the palace was repaired did Li Yuan invite Emperor Anyue and others back.
"I'm sorry to have wronged you."
Li Yuan looked apologetic and used his magical powers to help Emperor Anyue nourish his weak body.
Fortunately, his foundation was not damaged, only his breathing was disordered.
Emperor Anyue shook his head gently:
"It's all little things."
"The most important thing is that we don't know what your situation is like outside. Even if this old man makes things difficult for us, it's not easy to get angry."
Emperor Anyue is not afraid of the oppression of immortals and gods. If forced into a corner, he dares to gather the destiny of the whole country to fight back!
However, Emperor Anyue did not know Li Yuan's situation outside, and did not know whether Li Yuan suffered any loss or whether his side was in the wrong.
When faced with the immortals coming from heaven, we can only entertain them well.
"I was outside and did cause a little trouble."
Li Yuan scratched his head and had a long conversation with Emperor Anyue while drinking tea.
Emperor Anyue smiled happily: "When the mountain god feels guilty, he likes to scratch his head."
"It seems that there is quite a commotion."
Li Yuan was stunned and also laughed.
This matter ended somewhat anticlimactically.
Li Yuan believed that when the gray-haired old man returned, more immortals and gods would choose to watch quietly instead of getting involved and coming down to earth to cause trouble.
This is Li Yuan’s purpose.
Sometimes, causing serious injuries is more deterrent than killing directly.
Because Li Yuan has already spoken, anyone who dares to harass him will be attacked regardless of the consequences.
When later generations hear about the miserable appearance of the gray-haired old man, they will inevitably be wary when they are involved in this matter.
He was worried that if he got involved, it would anger Li Yuan and make him the second immortal to be killed by his sword.
If we ignore the gray-haired old man who came to the mortal world this time, we can just kill him with one sword.
Killed two immortals in a short period of time.
Instead, he was worried about touching the bottom line of the immortals and gods and forcing a group of people into a corner.
It will also make the neutral immortals in the sky think that Li Yuan is a bloodthirsty immortal.
That situation is actually not good.
After all, Li Yuan's own strength is still relatively weak.
After a long talk with Emperor Anyue, Li Yuan felt somewhat touched as he looked at the increasing number of gray hairs on his head.
"Ji Yu, you are devoted to the country and worry too much. You are only fifty years old, but your hair is already full of white hair."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Anyue gently stroked his white hair.
His body was still upright and full of energy.
But wrinkles have appeared at the corners of my eyes and forehead without me noticing.
"There is no one in the world who is not old. Every step and every word is witnessed by time."
Emperor Anyue was very calm.
Li Yuan looked at his faintly old appearance and sighed slightly:
"When I first met you, you were still in your prime."
"More than ten years have passed in a flash, it's so fast..."
Emperor Anyue chuckled:
"Although the years have passed, the moon is still bright."
"After working hard for half a lifetime, I can finally feel at peace."
The two of them were just like normal friends, drinking tea and chatting, having a great time.
"Why don't you practice with me? You can live a few decades longer."
After finishing a topic, Li Yuan suddenly mentioned this matter.
Emperor Anyue smiled bitterly and gently put down the teacup.
He pointed to the table next to him:
"My Lord Mountain God, I can't even finish reviewing all the memorials, how can I practice with you?"
"It doesn't matter if it's a small matter. But if you don't take a look at these big things and leave them all to the people below you, you will always feel uneasy."
On the table were various memorials and papers containing information about Anyue's national affairs planning and research directions.
Li Yuan was silent for a moment: "You just work hard and feel heavy."
Emperor Anyue laughed loudly, and then shook his head slightly.
"There was a famine during that year, and countless people died and were injured. The people suffered and had no way to survive."
"I feel guilty in my heart after all."
"If it weren't for my weak character and the evil spirit's deception that caused the imperial court to refuse to release grain..."
"Why do you allow the people to starve to death and eat their own children?"
As he spoke, a complex light flashed in Emperor Anyue's eyes, and his mind seemed to have returned to the famine disaster of that year.
I remembered the moment I knelt resolutely to confess my sins to the people of the country.
"In the midst of great adversity, the people are still willing to trust me. This is my luck."
"Now that we have the trust of our people, we must never disappoint them."
With his current physical condition, he will be able to last for another ten years.
Moreover, his third son, Ji Lin, is already capable of great use.
In the future, he will also be an excellent emperor.
Although Dayue had "split" at the beginning, many royal relatives followed.
Ji Xiu, Ji Xuan and Ji Lin all had children.
Although his eldest son Ji Xiu died on the battlefield, he left behind two young sons and one daughter.
The second son, Ji Xuan, originally stayed in Dayue, but a pair of twin babies also followed.
There was also a third son, Ji Lin, who also had a son and two daughters.
Although the other princes and princesses did not have the talent to govern the country, they also had bloodlines to continue.
These children have all experienced the difficult times and were determined to become the backbone of Anyue.
The royal bloodline means there will be successors.
Emperor Anyue treated all these children equally and valued them very much.
No matter how busy I am, I will take time to teach you carefully.
Under the education of many famous teachers with new ideas, I have now grown up.
Each of them has inherited the spirit of their ancestors, being kind and virtuous, and possessing both ability and moral integrity.
Anyue is developing rapidly every moment, and many of the things that were originally assumed have come into being one by one.
In some technical aspects, Anyue is already at the forefront of the secular world.
By the time he could no longer hold on and passed away, An Yue would have certainly reached her peak.
His people will live without worries and will never go hungry or without warm clothes.
Moreover, Emperor Anyue still has ambition and aspirations in his heart.
Some time before Li Yuan came back, An Yue had already begun to take charge of the uninhabited northern plains in the country and drive out the cannibalistic barbarians in the north of Xuzhou.
If there is enough time, he vows to conquer an extremely vast territory, end all wars and chaos, and make the world peaceful and harmonious!
"If I live long enough, I will unify the world and bring the whole world together!"
“Let my people’s footsteps travel the world!”
There was a gleam of hope in Emperor Anyue's eyes.
This is the ambition of an emperor on earth, and an arrogant attitude that others cannot see.
Emperor Anyue would only express his dreams in front of Li Yuan and others, just like he was talking to good friends.
However, looking at the faint wrinkles between Emperor Anyue's eyebrows.
Li Yuan's eyes trembled, as if he had foreseen...the future separation.
The immortals have eternal life, a journey, a retreat.
It may be dozens or even hundreds of years.
In the blink of an eye, how many people you have missed and how much regret you have left, only you know.
Li Yuan's heart is still alive...he doesn't want to experience the separation of life and death again.
"There are magical herbs in the mountains. After years of care, they have matured."
"Taking it can nourish the body and add several years to one's life."
Li Yuan spoke softly.
He had some ideas in his mind.
But it still requires careful planning.
Emperor Anyue smiled and nodded in response.
