Chapter 832: Hope, The Hope of Decem-Millennial Perseverance

“He’s just tired.” The Queen of King Tai Lun sighed softly.

“What?” City Lord Qian Hu was stunned.

“Actually, both of us escaped from the Resentment Cleansing Prison. Unlike me, who was known as the ‘Wild Flower’ back then, Tai Lun came from the Dark Realm.” The Queen said. Yue Yang was still calm and composed, but Lord Qian Hu was shocked. Wild Flower? Ten thousand years ago, she was the most insane female bandit in the Southern Heaven Realm! The current Head of the Flames is completely incomparable to her! Wild Flower was known to have seized the existence of several emperor-level Heaven Realm territories. The most powerful subordinates of the Warden of Tantai, Heavenly Ghost and Heavenly Demon, have joined forces for three days and three nights before they could successfully arrest her, bringing her to justice.

Wild Flower was not very well-known in the early days and was peaceful by nature. She didn’t like to fight; she was just a female mercenary wandering around.

Later, no one knew what happened, but she became a female bandit.

Looting everywhere she went.

At that time, as the Empress Fei Wen Li wanted to conquer the entire Heaven Realm, she was threatened by the Central Palace and hence, invited heroes from all over to join the fight. The Heaven Realm Kings and the domain emperors all gathered in the Western Heaven Realm to face off with the hero army that was led by the conquering Queen. As a result, the leading forces in most places were eliminated and many powerhouses took the opportunity to rise in their ranks. This was especially seen in areas under the rule of the emperors who had pa.s.sed in battle, where countless people competed for the reigning position.

The Wild Flower bandit group was the kind of looting-style bandit group where the thought of specialising in a specific trait had never crossed their minds.

They conquered cities everywhere and plundered various resources, and even the Emperor level Heaven Rankers couldn’t hold them back.

In the end, when Empress Fei Wen Li was sealed, the Heaven Realm Kings returned to their districts. The emperors once again ruled the areas that were under their jurisdiction and the Central Palace also finished off the remaining warriors, extinguis.h.i.+ng the beacon of flame that would spark wars between the people in the Heaven Realm.

As for King Tai Lun, if he came from the Dark Realm…City Lord Qian Hu shuddered secretly, feeling that there were some things that he just couldn’t know about. After all, ignorance is bliss.

He excused himself from Yue Yang’s side hurriedly. For secrets that should not be uncovered, the lesser he knew, the better.

“Tai Lun was not called ‘Tai Lun’ before as he was a fugitive from the Dark Realm. Only after he fled to the Tai Lun Continent and had met me did he claim to be Tai Lun. Me and him, it was love at first sight, where the binds of race and philosophy were unable to stop the fire of love between us. However, he and I were both outcasts of fate…I am the daughter of a death row prisoner in Resentment Cleansing Prison. Due to the protection of my relatives, I managed to escape before the total annihilation of my family. As for Tai Lun, he had it worse. He was a fallen cultivator, a martial artist destined to be a prisoner since birth. Even if he successfully escaped the Dark Realm, he will forever remain as a field mouse who will never see the light of day.” The Queen reminisced, her eyes flas.h.i.+ng with nostalgia.

“So you formed the Wild Flower Bandit Group?” the Head of the Flames asked.

“No. For people like us, our biggest wish is for others to not pay attention to us, let alone form a band of thieves. That was just done under the request of Tantai Tu Mie, or in other words, the request of the Central Palace.” Shaking her head, the Queen’s answer surprised both Lie Yan and Bi Lu.

“When did Tantai Tu Mie capture you both?” Bi Lu was curious. Why did Tantai Tu Mie want the duo to form the Wild Flower Bandit Group?

“We were already in love for about a year when we encountered him. I was pregnant with a baby when Tantai Tu Mie appeared in front of us with Heavenly Ghost and Heavenly Demon. Against them, there was no possibility of resisting arrest as we were completely helpless. He imprisoned us in the Resentment Cleansing Prison, and after the child was born, he took the child away. We had no choice but to follow his orders to form the Wild Flower Bandit Group, hence we looted everywhere and gave him the plundered resources… In fact, this has always been the case. We were not the first victims to be threatened, nor would we be the last. In order to obtain more resources, to better control the Heaven Realm, and to maintain their picture-perfect image, the Central Palace used various means to form a myriad of bandit groups. Countless cities and territories were seized in various areas of the Heaven Realm. Almost all of the territories that were not attacked were areas that were controlled by the Central Palace…excluding the domain emperors and the leaders’ territories such as Emperor-level Heaven Realm districts. As long as an area was not under the management of the Central Palace and was unwilling to accept the secret control of the Central Palace, it would become a target of the attack.” Queen Tai Lun told a secret of the Heaven Realm that only a select few knew about.

“That means, my father was killed because of this…” Bi Lu exclaimed as she had realized.

“Yes. As far as I know, the Clown Mercenary Group is one of the chess pieces of the Central Palace.” Yue Yang figured out why the clowns could blend in with both the Western Heaven Realm and the Southern Heaven Realm. The reason behind this was due to the support of certain people in the Central Palace.

The Clown Mercenary Group was purely a band of destruction, never seizing any specific city for their residency.

But they could get supplies from any city at their beck and call.

If it weren’t for the Central Palace’s backing and the relations.h.i.+p between them that was relatively close, the Emperor-level Heavenly Rankers from all over the country would have taken action to eradicate them.

In fact, the opposite is true. Even King Lionheart, who is aspiring to be the Emperor of his own domain, had to look the other way when it came to the Clown Mercenary Group. If it weren’t for the support of the Central Palace, it would be impossible for the King Lionheart to join hands with the Clown Mercenary Group! Of course, it seemed like the disturbance in the Southern Heaven Realm was not the only thing the Clown had a hold on. Was the Central Palace really trying to use the Clown, or was it to target the Tong Tian Tower…They had no idea if the battle between the Prison Emperor and the King of the Western Heaven Realm had involved the Clown in their brawl.

It seemed like they had to find the older generation of powerful rankers such as Qian Ye, Tian Lun and Wu Se in order to understand the truth.

Queen Tai Lun nodded, affirming what Yue Yang had stated.

She looked at Bi Lu, “I’ve heard about your father. It is said that he died because of a treasure. The resources your father received were not the best, but he must have gotten his hands on a very good treasure. The Central Palace sent some men over but he refused to give it up. In the end, it resulted in the disaster of betrayal and separation.”

Bi Lu was shocked: “But I have never heard of my father owning some sort of precious treasure!”

“Had you known it, I’m afraid you would have died or become a puppet long ago.” Queen Tai Lun shook her head and sighed before her next words carried a surge of emotion: “There are some things in this world that could curse you once you acquired its knowledge. To know nothing, is the true blessing.”

“You and King Tai Lun were arrested. You two should have remained in the Resentment Cleansing Prison, but later on he became King Tai Lun with a benevolent reputation… Was it also the work of the Tantai Tu Mie?” Bi Lu reacted. If the arresting of King Tai Lun and the Queen was a feat, it would be normal for Heavenly Ghost and Heavenly Demon to take them captive. But how did the two come out to become the ruling monarchs of the governing party?

“That’s right.” Queen Tai Lun nodded: “Because they had a certain leverage in their hands, we had no choice but to obey them— to become a King in the Southern Heaven Realm, manage a territory, and collect various resources for them for years. As for benevolent treatment towards the people, we just felt guilty of the crimes we have committed, so we try to make up for it.”

“Can you be rid of this control if we save your daughter?” Lie Yan asked.

“Young man, what do you think?” The Queen looked at Yue Yang.

“No, it’s impossible.” Yue Yang knew that things would not be that simple. People like King Tai Lun and the Queen were definitely not ones to be controlled with the lives of children.

“Actually, the little baby of ours had already died.” The Queen sighed sadly, covering her face with her hands as she basked in infinite waves of sorrow.

“Then…why do you and King Tai Lun still obey them?” Lie Yan didn’t understand.

“Because of one thing, and that is hope.” There was a layer of mist in the Queen’s eyes.

Hope?

The word stunned Lie Yan and Bi Lu.

Yue Yang gave it some thought and he somewhat understood what the Queen said— she should be referring to the hope from the Dark Realm. King Tai Lun was someone who had escaped from the Dark Realm. If he died, then the people of the Dark Realm would be completely at a loss. For the sake of the countless lives that were sacrificed to aid his escape from the Dark Realm, King Tai Lun must live.

As for why King Tai Lun was suddenly unwilling to cooperate with the Central Palace anymore, he didn’t know. Why was he discouraged and begging to die?

He probably found out that his entire clan had suffered.

Or, he no longer had any hope left!

The Queen looked at Yue Yang: “Actually, Tai Lun and I don’t care about whether we live or die. For people like us, early death is an early liberation. Besides, you know that our business was completely laid out for us with the courtesy of Tantai Tu Mie. This was the case today, and I am afraid it will be the same in the future. If we die sooner, perhaps we can reduce some of our sins.”

Yue Yang pondered slightly. Raising his head, he looked at Queen Tai Lun : “I am unable to promise you in my current state, but in the future, perhaps someday, I will kill Tantai Tu Mie. If you and Tai Lun are willing to wait, I will try my best, so please bear with it! You may have done a lot of wrong things, but as long as you have the will to atone, you will eventually wash away your crimes and restore your nature… I don’t know much about the Dark Realm, but in the Western Heaven Realm, I saw with my own eyes more than 10,000 warriors appearing from the Dark Realm. Although they still couldn’t completely get rid of their being controlled, there is at least the slightest possibility.”

“Those are just improvements on the surface. If you don’t overthrow the Central Palace, there will never be light in the Dark Realm, and chess pieces will always be chess pieces.” The Queen gently shook her head before she finally looked at Yue Yang: “Young man, if you can be with ‘G.o.d’, I hope you can convey a word of mine to ‘G.o.d’.”

“What words do you want me to convey?” Yue Yang asked.

“The Dark Realm had used countless generations of lives to wash away the sins of the past. Now morality and hope have been restored there, but the people in the Central Palace have covered their prayers. Tai Lun and I, would swear by our lives and souls, in hope that G.o.d’s brilliance will shed light into the Dark Realm as soon as possible. This has been their prayer for tens of thousands of years. This, is also our hope that will remain unchanged for the next decems of millenia to come!” From the Queen’s eyes, a teardrop slid down quickly and fell onto the ground.

“I can’t grant you a promise, but I will tell you the truth. If it’s possible, I might go to the Dark Realm myself to see if it is true or false.” Yue Yang was moved by the hope that Queen Tai Lun insisted on holding on despite living in the kind of life that was worse than death. Even for thousands of years, she has never let go of that hope.

How persistent one has to be!

How strong she is!

Yue Yang does not necessarily respect seniors, but he respects these kinds of strong rankers who aim to achieve their goal and persist in not losing hope in their lives! This power was not based on their strength, but their soul!

Compared with these people who have been holding onto hope in order to escape the Dark Realm, the predecessors of the Soaring Dragon Continent who have fought relentlessly to ensure the survival of the next generations, like Yueqiu and the others, were the same as the Tai Lun couple.The only difference was the place of battle and their ways of persistence!

Yue Yang was the hope of the Soaring Dragon Continent, the hope of the Tong Tian Tower. He can rise together with the Tong Tian tower if the Dark Realm is also suited to.

Why not lead those people to rise together and overthrow the rule of the Central Palace?

Yue Yang temporarily doesn’t have this ability yet.

However, he has now established this goal!

As long as he continues to work hard, with his talent and everyone’s endless support, that day will never be far away…
