Chapter 49

~4 min read 706 words

Anyuan County.

The invaders have arrived.

They forced the theater's lead actors to perform for them.

It brought back memories of that era.

The invaders were devoid of humanity, burning, killing, looting, and even slaughtering entire cities.

The common people fled!

Nine out of ten houses stood empty!

The land of Huaxia was filled with the smoke of war, mingled with the wails of the people!

Scenes from that era, seen in textbooks and films, flashed through everyone's minds.

At this moment.

The hearts of all the viewers in the livestream were filled with a profound sense of oppression!

That is hatred!

The hatred of our ancestors!

A deep-seated hatred carved into the bones of every Huaxia person!

And now, that great hatred remains unavenged, while the Sakura Nation attempts to rewrite history, refusing to acknowledge the monstrous crimes their ancestors once committed!

Xu Youyue continued to sing.

It was as if Pei Yanzhi stood upon the stage, looking at the ferocious and barbaric invaders, looking at this land of Huaxia engulfed in the smoke of war:

"A duckweed in troubled times, I endure the sight of war fires burning the mountains and rivers.

Though my position is humble, I dare not forget to worry for my country.

Even if no one knows me..."

The viewers' hearts were shaken.

This time, it wasn't because of the singing, but because of the lyrics.

"Though my position is humble, I dare not forget to worry for my country!"

This is a timeless line by Lu You from the Earth's Huaxia, a line that does not exist in this Blue Star Huaxia.

It stirred even more intense emotions in the audience.

All the viewers were stunned!

Such lyrics!

They instantly elevated the scope and maxed out the tone!

Everyone wore a solemn expression.

They were even afraid that the subsequent singing wouldn't match the tone of these lyrics, ruining the artistic conception.

But at this moment.

Xu Youyue's voice paused slightly; she pinched her fingers into an orchid gesture, performing the movements of an opera singer, while her beautiful eyes lowered, seemingly looking down at the stage, her gaze cold, like a sharp divine sword.

In this instant.

She seemed to merge into one with Pei Yanzhi.

Immediately following, the opera-style singing emerged, turning into a sharp blade, piercing fiercely into the hearts of all the viewers!

"The people below the stage pass by,

Seeing no trace of the old colors.

The person on the stage sings,

A heartbreaking song of parting.

It is hard to put the word 'love' into ink,

She sings, and must accompany it with blood.

The curtain rises,

The curtain falls,

Who is the guest?"

Xu Youyue's highly penetrating opera-style vocals echoed endlessly in the room.

And through the livestream, it reached every corner of the country.

What she was singing was no longer just a song, but an opera!

This passage of opera-style singing carried a determination that disregarded life and death, an extreme, desolate penetrating power, and the tragic heroism of perishing together with the invaders!

At this moment.

In the livestream!

All the viewers were dumbfounded!

Their scalps went numb!

Their minds were shaken!

Countless viewers' bodies trembled to the sound of Xu Youyue's singing!

What kind of divine song is this!

It actually integrated opera-style singing into the song without the slightest sense of incongruity; instead, it blended perfectly with the music, giving people a profound shock!

And in this silent shock.

All the viewers thought of the ending in the story.

That opera singer, while agreeing to perform, secretly ordered preparations to be made, placing firewood and oil all over the theater, and when it came time to go on stage, ignited the entire theater, perishing together with all the invaders.

This is what "Though my position is humble, I dare not forget to worry for my country" means!

How resolute!

How tragic!

All the viewers seemed to see that opera singer on the stage amidst the raging flames, dressed in a red opera costume, singing!

"This is the 'Red Opera Singer,' an actor in red, but it doesn't just refer to the red clothes she wears, but also the raging fire..." realization dawned on some in their hearts.
