Chapter 969

~7 min read 1,240 words

"What is acacia worth?

No one cares anymore..."

The song "Acacia" was the ending theme of "Journey to the West Aftermath."

It sang of acacia, but in reality, it was about parting.

Guihai Yidao and Haitang, life and death, separated by the divide of life and death, that was parting.

Eternal farewell!

This was a super big move specially prepared by the girls for this tear-jerking nuclear bomb scene.

In fact, there was a song about love in the original TV show's plot, but that song wasn't very popular, so the girls chose "Acacia."

Not only that, along with the music, there were also beautiful scenes of Haitang and Guihai Yidao together.

Presented through Guihai Yidao's memories:

When Guihai Yidao first entered the Dragon-Protecting Villa and was punished by not being allowed to eat, Haitang secretly brought him steamed buns.

Haitang bathing in a pool, Guihai Yidao discovering for the first time that she was a girl, and from then on, secretly harboring feelings for her, caring for her, and peeking at her.

In the snow, Guihai Yidao and Haitang loving each other deeply, kissing passionately.

……

Scene after scene of memories made Guihai Yidao, a ruthless and cold handsome man who had never shed a tear, shed lines of tears, which mixed with the rain and flowed into the earth.

"Drunkenly lying in the city that never sleeps,

Neon lights everywhere,

A piece of wanton sentiment in the wine glass.

Most willing to forget the poems of the ancients,

Most disdainful of acacia.

Guarding love, afraid of people laughing,

Also afraid of people seeing clearly.

Spring comes again to see the red beans bloom,

But no lovers are seen to pick them.

Fireworks embrace the romantic, true love is not there..."

The miserable scene matched with the girls' singing.

The viewers... cried even harder.

"Woooooo..."

"Heartless..."

"They really have no hearts, they actually wrote a song specifically for Haitang's death!"

"Do they think they are very humorous?"

"My eyes are all red from crying."

"My Haitang, my Guihai Yidao, woooooo."

"You Mingyue, bad girls!"

"Too ruthless!"

"Kill her if you must, but you actually wrote such a good song for it!!! Too bad!"

"..."

In the end, the comments on the screen were completely dominated by one sentence.

The viewers' reactions were surprisingly consistent.

That sentence was—Cherish your tears, stay away from You Mingyue!

There was no help for it; this pair of twins was just too good at killing off characters.

They always killed off the characters everyone liked, but everyone could only grit their teeth in hatred, unable to do anything about them.

Who told them that beauty is justice?

Seeing their stunning faces, big eyes like stars, and sweet smiles, how could anyone have the heart to blame them.

……

Guihai Yidao buried Haitang in a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. The tombstone was carved by his own hand, in the name of Haitang's husband.

On the day Haitang was buried, Duan Tianya, Yagyu Piaoxu, Cheng Shifei, and the Princess all came.

It was a beautiful day.

The weather was very good.

But the comments were scrolling frantically.

The true murderer was right in front of the grave, yet still pretending to be innocent—how ironic.

At this time, Zhang Jinjiu also came to the grave to pay his respects.

Zhang Jinjiu said that as the world's number one detective, what he was best at was not just solving cases, but also judging the situation.

Over the years, it wasn't that he hadn't investigated the despicable deeds the God of War had done behind the scenes, but for the sake of his own life, he had chosen to protect himself. But to him, Haitang was an even closer friend. Even if he had to go through fire and water, he would definitely find the true murderer who killed Haitang.

The camera gave a close-up of Piaoxu's expression.

It showed that she was somewhat flustered.

At the same time, Zhang Jinjiu also glanced at her, seemingly already suspicious of her.

Duan Tianya invited Zhang Jinjiu to talk aside. He told Zhang Jinjiu everything about the wounds and doubts after Haitang was harmed, and locked onto the fact that the person who killed Haitang was a Japanese expert with a blade.

After communicating, the two set the direction for the next investigation.

At this time.

What surprised everyone and the audience was that Wan Sanqian had also come to Haitang's funeral.

He said that even though Haitang didn't marry him in the end, she was still someone he had truly loved, and what's more, he knew better than anyone who had killed Haitang.

Guihai Yidao asked eagerly: "Do you know who killed Haitang?"

Wan Sanqian replied with his back to him: "Who killed her is not important, who gave the order is what's important!"

"Who is it? Who is it!" Guihai Yidao asked repeatedly.

"It's someone you can't deal with." The positioning in the camera here was very interesting: Wan Sanqian was talking to Guihai Yidao, while Haitang, standing behind him, raised her head, her eyes filled with cold murderous intent.

After saying this.

Wan Sanqian turned and left.

……

After paying respects to Haitang, Wan Sanqian went straight to the Dragon-Protecting Villa to hold Zhu Wushi accountable.

For business, for profit, he could cooperate with Zhu Wushi to seize the world, but Zhu Wushi should not have, absolutely should not have, laid a hand on Haitang.

This was something he could not accept and could not tolerate.

The reason Wan Sanqian had such confidence and the courage to question Zhu Wushi was that he held Zhu Wushi's eight hundred thousand troops and food supplies in his hands. Once completely destroyed, even if Zhu Wushi had heaven-defying abilities, it would be difficult for him to succeed in his rebellion.

Apart from Eunuch Cao Zhengchun and Jiang Yuyan, when had Zhu Wushi ever taken such insults from anyone else?

He attacked in anger.

Of course, the Four Ghosts of Xiangxi by Wan Sanqian's side were no pushovers.

Just when the audience thought there would be another wonderful fight, who knew that in the next second, Zhu Wushi used the Star-Sucking Great Method, sucked dry the internal energy of the Four Ghosts of Xiangxi, then strangled Wan Sanqian, and ordered someone to take Wan Sanqian's corpse to feed the dogs!

The richest man in the country, who had acted in a fit of rage for the sake of a beauty, ended up dead, which made people sigh with emotion.

……

In the following plot.

Zhang Jinjiu died. Duan Tianya found the murderer who killed Zhang Jinjiu, and it was actually the "dead" Yagyu Tajima-no-Kami. After a wonderful duel, Duan Tianya finally won by using the Phantom Sword, killing his old father-in-law, Yagyu Tajima-no-Kami.

At the same time, through the clues left by Zhang Jinjiu, he also guessed who the true murderer of Haitang was.

Duan Tianya broke into his home masked and attacked Piaoxu. Piaoxu quickly made moves and engaged him in battle.

Everything was clear; Piaoxu was the murderer who killed Haitang.

In the end, Piaoxu confessed everything to Tianya and then committed suicide.

Haitang's death pushed Duan Tianya completely to the opposite side of the Iron-Gall God of War, Zhu Wushi.

The remaining three great secret agents—Heaven, Earth, and Yellow—prepared to storm the Dragon-Protecting Villa and kill Zhu Wushi.

Episode thirty-four ends!

The final battle is here!
