Chapter 32: Time Waits for No One
Qin Yi turned around, a smile on her face.
"You have lived with me for so many years; have you ever seen such a person?"
A look of disappointment appeared on Miss Jia's face, and in the end, she could only let out a long sigh.
"No."
"Qin Yi, then have you seen one?" Miss Jia asked again.
The hand Qin Yi was using to water the flowers paused: "Perhaps there were in the past."
She thought of a long time ago, that dim era imbued with magical colors.
It is a pity that such an era will ultimately never exist again.
"You have been to the Dahuang Mountain Range?"
"Mm." Miss Jia nodded.
Qin Yi sat down, supporting her waist, panting: "The Great Feng of that time was rotten to the core.
It revered literature and suppressed martial arts; the country was wealthy, but the people were weak.
I originally thought that when the Wolf Tribe attacked, the Great Feng would fall apart. But I never expected that the Wolf Guard would disappear inexplicably and the Wolf Tribe would decline.
Originally, I thought this matter would be like many unsolved mysteries in history, destined to be buried in the dust of history.
I did not expect that the incident in the Dahuang Mountain Range would actually unearth a historical mystery.
I also did not expect that the one who caused all this would be Heize. I am very curious, how did Heize annihilate the Wolf Guard?"
Miss Jia sat on the chair, her gaze shifting, and in the end, she did not speak.
"You have known Heize for so long, did you not discover anything special about him in military matters or other areas?" Qin Yi asked, her gaze deep.
She had seen many figures who left their names in history.
These figures gave Qin Yi a feeling completely different from Ordinary people.
Either they were extremely comfortable to be around, or they always possessed a spirit that compelled admiration.
Outstanding people are also human, but to be called an outstanding person, there must certainly be something extraordinary about them.
"He is very strong; even Liu Tou was not a match for him in a single exchange." Miss Jia mentioned Heize, a smile tracing the corners of her mouth.
"That is not enough; Liu Tou is also just a slightly stronger person." Qin Yi sighed, "In this world, there simply does not exist a person who can block ten thousand alone.
Even if one existed, that person would not be Heize.
I am also very curious now, how exactly did Heize annihilate that branch of the Wolf Tribe?
I suppose we will only know the truth of history once the investigation results come out."
A trace of disappointment appeared on Miss Jia's face: "Even you feel that Heize had no hope of blocking ten thousand alone, then..."
In Miss Jia's understanding, Qin Yi was absolutely the one with the strongest capacity for acceptance.
Or rather, the most knowledgeable.
She longed for Heize to be different from the rest, so perhaps there might still be a glimmer of hope to see that person who haunted her dreams in childhood one last time before she died.
"How strong is the strongest person Qin Yi has ever seen?" Miss Jia asked, "Can they block ten thousand alone?"
"They cannot." Qin Yi fell into memories, "The strong individuals I have seen could perhaps only kill a thousand people.
However, regardless of whether it was a military formation of ten thousand or one hundred thousand surrounding and killing them, they would not die.
Instead, these one hundred thousand soldiers would, for some inexplicable reason, ultimately collapse."
"Why?" Miss Jia was slightly stunned.
This was very unreasonable.
Of course, her own existence was also extremely unreasonable.
"Because of... destiny."
Where destiny lies, one becomes a Child of Destiny.
"Mm?" Miss Jia still did not understand.
"Destiny, mortals cannot defy it."
Qin Yi did not speak further; clearly, she did not continue the discussion on this topic.
Miss Jia also did not press for more.
"Has Heize's body been unearthed?" Qin Yi asked casually.
"Not yet." Miss Jia was somewhat expectant, yet somewhat afraid.
To die without a complete corpse, or to not see the corpse at all.
She could still rely on the Life and Death Shrine to hold onto a thought.
After all, the Life and Death Shrine recorded that Heize's combat power was peerless and beyond imagination.
If Heize truly had peerless combat power, would it be possible that he is still alive now?
Of course, this was just Miss Jia's delusion.
Regardless, one must see the person if they are alive, or the corpse if they are dead.
"When it is dug up, I will accompany you to see it," Qin Yi said, her voice sounding aged.
"Qin Yi?" Miss Jia was somewhat surprised.
Currently, the state of her and Qin Yi was not very good.
The Longevity Pill was not true longevity.
Over these many years, Miss Jia had spent many years trapped in slumber.
Sleeping and waking for a thousand years.
This awakening might be the final one.
Once she fell asleep again, she would truly be unable to wake up again.
Qin Yi is the same as Miss Jia, perhaps even more severe.
Therefore, for these past years, Qin Yi has avoided running about, focusing on self-cultivation and nourishing her nature.
"In any case, there is only that final period of time left, so what harm is there in me accompanying you for a walk?" A smile appeared on Qin Yi's face.
"I will immediately have the Justice Association apply pressure to continue pushing forward the excavation speed!
At present, nearly ten thousand skeletons have already been unearthed; I believe it won't be long before I can see Heize!"
Miss Jia said hurriedly.
"Good."
"Father." Lin Chao returned home and saw his father in the garden.
"You went to see... Lady Ma?" Lin Leng looked at Lin Chao, his gaze full of gratification.
"Yes." Lin Chao nodded, "Heaven's mandate lies with Cang, with the Central Plains; I intend to send Lady Ma out of the Central Plains. No matter how strong Cang Jun's lackeys are, they cannot influence overseas."
This was the solution Lin Chao had found.
The current Cang Jun has Qi luck that is too dense.
This gives one the feeling of being as powerless as facing a natural or man-made disaster.
For example, no matter how hard you work, how high your martial arts are, or how profound your knowledge is, if you encounter a magnitude twelve earthquake, you are finished.
"Ping'er, during this period of time, you must cultivate well and improve your own strength.
Four years from now, our several factions will clash." Lin Leng said, his gaze becoming solemn.
"Is the decisive battle finally arriving?" Lin Chao spoke, his voice unexpectedly calm.
"Yes." Lin Leng said, "Once Taiqing Mountain moves to Kyoto and the Qi luck is permanently suppressed by Great Cang, we will truly have no chance at all."
"Yes." Lin Chao nodded.
