Chapter 980

Jing Yuan, who did not want to be restrained and avoided work that could be seen to the end at a glance, had to take over the position of General because he inherited the "Divine Firmament Thunder Mansion General of Thunder and Lightning, Chasing Demons and Sweeping Filth."

After taking office, the first thing Jing Yuan handled was not military affairs, but the Vidyadhara High Elders' Council and the Ten-Lords Commission bickering over Dan Feng.

One side wanted to protect, the other side wanted to kill.

Vidyadhara High Elder Su Guang requested him to plead for Dan Feng:

"……Therefore, I request the Six Charioteers to write a report to the Ten-Lords Commission to release the sinner Dan Feng."

Such a blatant act of going through the back door—what does it treat the Xianzhou laws as, and what does it treat the casualties of the "Imbibitor Lunae Rebellion" as!

Jing Yuan agreed.

After the sentence was reduced, Dan Feng was forced to molt his scales because he refused to hand over the "Cloud-Hymn Technique."

But the High Elders couldn't let the "Cloud-Hymn Technique" be lost, so they planned to play a trick of fake molting. Such an idea naturally couldn't be hidden from Jing Yuan, nor could it be hidden from the Ten-Lords Commission.

When the execution finally took place, Jing Yuan, the Ten-Lords Commission, and the "Fanghu" High Elder Ju Yuan watched as it went through the motions and finally fooled everyone.

In this, how many places Jing Yuan had to run, how many people he had to persuade, how many favors he used up, and how many favors he owed, only he himself knew.

Afterward, the "newborn" Dan Feng—Seeing Dan Heng—was imprisoned in the Shackling Prison.

When Dan Feng was alive, the High Elders who were suppressed and had their power consolidated didn't intend to let Seeing Dan Heng walk out again. They planned to wait for Seeing Dan Heng to slowly recover his memory and pry the secret of the "Cloud-Hymn Technique" out of his mouth.

Such little thoughts naturally couldn't be hidden from Jing Yuan.

Therefore, with the permission of the Ten-Lords Commission, he directly flipped the table, ended the imprisonment, released "Dan Feng" in the name of exile, and returned the Cloud-Piercer spear to him.

As for the twists and turns in this, and the hard work Jing Yuan endured to clean up the mess of the "Imbibitor Lunae Rebellion," Seeing Dan Heng, who only knew the tip of the iceberg and not the whole picture, didn't know if he could appreciate it, or how much he could appreciate it.

After so many years, Jing Yuan was no longer the Vanguard of the past; he was the "Divine Strategist General" in name and reality.

Facing Yanqing, he was a teacher; facing Fu Xuan, he was a General, a superior……

Only Bai Lu, who possessed Bai Heng's bloodline and had a personality no different from Bai Heng's, could let Jing Yuan put down the name of "General" and change back to that "Little Brother Jing Yuan."

During the annual pulse-taking and diagnosis, he would tell some stories of wielding a sword across the world, making Bai Lu also fantasize about wielding a sword across the world one day.

And now, looking at "Dan Feng's" nostalgic appearance, he also seemed to have become younger.

If Bai Xuan really helped Seeing Dan Heng remove the incomplete High Elder power, let Bai Lu possess the complete High Elder inheritance, and made Seeing Dan Heng become "Permanence," things should be much better.

After Bai Lu possessed the complete High Elder power, the High Elders would not dare to treat her as a puppet, would not dare to secretly monitor and control her, and would even less dare to secretly use her for human experiments.

After Seeing Dan Heng was promoted to an Aeon, the High Elders' thoughts would only tighten, and the other High Elders would probably come to the "Luo Fu" to pay respects, wanting to borrow "Permanence" to seize some of the Alliance's power.

But given the current deadlocked relationship between Seeing Dan Heng and the Vidyadhara, they would not only get a cold shoulder, but they wouldn't dare to feel dissatisfied in their hearts, for fear that the Dragon Ancestor would strip them of their "Permanence" bloodline in a fit of anger.

With a boss who had no good face for the High Elders, the Vidyadhara race would restrain their actions a lot. Moreover, after the Vidyadhara race could reproduce again, the population problem was no longer an omnipotent shield.

It's just a pity that Seeing Dan Heng is ultimately not Dan Feng. Although the "High-Cloud Quintet" of the past still exists in another form, they will never gather together again.

However, since the Master has come to the "Luo Fu," she will probably come to the Divine Strategist's office to find him. When that time comes, I hope there will be a chance to sit down and have a good drink.

Listen to what the Master has done in these 720 years and what moves she has realized.

Also let him complain properly, spit out the bitterness in his heart, and by the way, ask what preparations he should make after he steps down so he can wield a sword across the world.

……

Looking at Jing Yuan's gaze, Seeing Dan Heng didn't need to think deeply to know what he was thinking. It was nothing more than his appearance reminding this General of the past.

Seeing Dan Heng once told his doubts to Bai Xuan—he had already borne the punishment of Imbibitor Lunae and accepted permanent exile. Why did both the Vidyadhara and the Xianzhou treat him as Imbibitor Lunae Dan Feng?

Bai Xuan gave him two answers at that time.

One was that his appearance was no different from Dan Feng's, and those who had experienced the "Imbibitor Lunae Rebellion" needed an object of hatred. Seeing Dan Heng naturally inherited the hatred for Dan Feng.

The other was that he was Dan Feng, but like March, he had forgotten the past.

After the bumps along the way, Seeing Dan Heng already felt faintly that various signs indicated that the truth was likely the latter.

Blade's statement that he had never died basically confirmed that Dan Feng had not completely washed away his sins.

Was it because the High Elder power in his body made the High Elders grit their teeth and make such a choice…… or did Dan Feng do something that made the High Elders have to prevent him from reincarnating……

Sure enough, was it still that so-called "Cloud-Hymn Technique"…… But he didn't know what that was either……

Seeing Dan Heng pondered for a moment:

"I can understand your feelings, but……"

"The people who stood here with you are already gone."

"Whether Dan Feng is a hero or a sinner, it has nothing to do with me. Today I am Seeing Dan Heng, and in the future, I will only be Seeing Dan Heng."

"Ah, bringing up old things is like stirring up a pool of muddy water, pointlessly causing unhappiness." Jing Yuan smiled and returned to normal.

But Yanqing could perceive that even though Imbibitor Lunae had many clashes in his words, the General was not unhappy, just like listening to an old friend complain.

"It's probably your appearance…… probably those dragon horns, and the vaguely familiar High Elder temperament that always makes me connect you with an old friend."

"I have already said—"

"Yes, you said it, so what?" Jing Yuan interrupted directly.

He had already heard the subsequent words many times when Seeing Dan Heng was still locked in the Shackling Prison.

"If one sentence could change others' attitudes toward oneself, there wouldn't be so many disputes in the world."

"If you want to completely become Seeing Dan Heng, no problem. I can let Dan Feng die and then revoke your exile order."

"I can also guarantee that from then on, at least on the Luo Fu, you will no longer be anyone's shadow."

Seeing Dan Heng: "What are your conditions? If I can do it."

"That's not a difficult thing. As long as you don't resist in your heart, everything will fall into place." Jing Yuan shook his head.

He felt a bit tired; he was helping his idol for the last time, but it turned out like he had something to ask of Seeing Dan Heng.

"Just said: You and I standing here today are each different. Dan Feng is gone, only Seeing Dan Heng remains. And I……"

"I am already the Luo Fu General. Some things, even if I am unwilling, I still have to do."

"I heard that Bai Xuan wants to help you remove the High Elder power in your body. Did you agree to him?"

Seeing Dan Heng nodded: "Yes, since everything started because of Dan Feng, as long as I am completely no longer Dan Feng, I can end all this."

Jing Yuan thought to himself, even if you give up the High Elder power, the High Elders will still find a way to get the "Cloud-Hymn Technique" from you…… However, did Bai Xuan not tell you the follow-up arrangements?

"Do you know the result of doing this?"

"I know, it's nothing more than losing the High Elder power." Seeing Dan Heng nodded.

"The General doesn't need to worry about me. Since the day I was exiled, I have never used the High Elder power. Today's appearance is purely a special case."

"Mm, don't you have any unwillingness at all? In the future journeys of the 'Astral Express,' there will probably be many places where this power is needed."

"No, this power was originally inherited by Dan Feng from the previous High Elder. It doesn't belong to him, and it belongs even less to me." Seeing Dan Heng shook his head and denied it.

This power, to him, was more like a shackle, a sin that pursued him endlessly.

"I have made up my mind to return the High Elder power and cut off the past. From now on, Dan Feng is Dan Feng, Seeing Dan Heng is Seeing Dan Heng. Seeing Dan Heng will have no more dealings with the Vidyadhara race and will no longer be involved in the infighting of the High Elders."

Listening to Seeing Dan Heng's realization, Jing Yuan suddenly revealed a playful smile:

"If you think so, then I'm afraid your wish will fall through."

"Why?"

"Because that friend of yours is kind-hearted; he can't stand the 'Permanence' position being empty and plans to push you up." Jing Yuan joked.

No wonder he didn't tell Seeing Dan Heng about this; it turns out he was waiting for him to speak up and push Seeing Dan Heng up.

Seeing Dan Heng: "??"

"What I want you to do is very simple—return the High Elder power in front of everyone, and then be promoted to 'Permanence.' There is no room for negotiation on this matter."

Seeing Dan Heng: "???"
