Chapter 327 Young Man on a White Horse Drunk in the Spring Breeze (Movie Version) 22
Looking at the lake on the big screen, Nangong Chunshui felt a surge of emotions. Her fingers couldn't help but rub together, and she felt a little itchy.
Since his friends passed away one after another, he hadn't had a proper fight in a long time.
……
The clouds parted, and the moon appeared.
Two figures reappeared in the sky.
A drop of blood fell from the sky.
"Are you done playing?"
Who really won this duel?
All eyes instantly focused on the two people who were slowly falling, trying to find out who the blood belonged to.
The two landed slowly.
On the big screen, the audience was still speculating about who would win between 'Xiao Ruojin' and 'Li Changsheng', but those in the theater could see it clearly.
In the final battle, Xiao Ruojin received a palm strike from Li Changsheng, but Li Changsheng's folding fan was already broken, and a cut was made on his neck, from which a drop of blood flowed.
In this battle, both sides were severely injured, and there was no winner.
Xiao Ruojin coughed up a mouthful of blood, her face turning deathly pale instantly.
However, he refused Xiao Ruofeng's help, staring intently at Li Changsheng: "Under the whole heaven, all land belongs to the king; on the shores of the earth, all people are the king's subjects. Li Changsheng, I am giving you a choice."
Li Changsheng fell silent, and no one knew what he was thinking at that moment.
But then he saw his gaze linger on Xiao Ruofeng and Baili Dongjun in the carriage behind him, before finally lowering his eyes, giving a self-deprecating smile, and rejecting the 'opportunity'.
"Indeed, the younger generation surpasses the older! However, I, Li, have always disliked court intrigues, and I fear I will disappoint Your Highness."
Xiao Ruojin was not surprised by this answer at all, and simply said, "Very well, then so be it! Li Changsheng, I hereby order you to leave Beili immediately and go where you belong. From now on, without my decree, you are not allowed to set foot in Beili again."
Li Changsheng sighed, nodded, and then his figure flickered, riding the wind and disappearing into the horizon.
Baili Luochen sighed, watching the scene on the screen where he apologized to 'Xiao Ruojin' and ultimately had no choice but to cede the Pofeng Army. In an instant, he seemed to have aged several years.
While his title of Marquis of Zhenxi was renowned throughout the land, what truly solidified his position was the invincible and unconquerable Pofeng Army under his command.
Without the Broken Wind Army, the Marquis of Zhenxi was nothing more than a frail old man.
I never imagined that after a lifetime of glory, I would end up falling into the hands of Prince Jingyu.
It really is a matter of timing! It's fate!
Seeing his father like this, Baili Chengfeng felt a pang of sadness.
However, before he could fully savor the experience, he heard a sentence that made him feel like he was on cloud nine.
"Since Your Excellency is so generous, then I shall shamelessly ask Your Highness for another person."
"Who?"
"The heir of the Marquis of Zhenxi—Baili Chengfeng."
Baili Chengfeng suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.
Baili Luochen also changed his previous dejected look, and a look of shock instantly appeared on his face.
Two cold hearts were instantly warmed by Xiao Ruojin's words.
King Jingyu truly has great courage!
Even now, with countless people in the court saying that the Marquis of Zhenxi's family has made great contributions and threatens the emperor, he still has the audacity to appoint Cheng Feng.
Whether it was out of appeasement or genuine willingness to appoint him, with Baili Chengfeng's abilities, he would surely be able to quickly gain a foothold in the army and revitalize the Zhenxi Marquis's mansion.
Even if King Jingyu maintains this supportive attitude, it might be possible to go even further.
The Marquis of Zhenxi's mansion lost the Pofeng Army, but it has once again ushered in a glorious future.
Baili Dongjun's mind was not on this at all. He was immersed in the two questions: "My sweetheart may not like me" and "My sweetheart hurt my best brother, what should I do?" He was extremely depressed.
Seeing this made Yueyao's heart ache.
Although she had some ulterior motives towards Baili Dongjun, she also genuinely liked him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have refused to take him back to Tianwaitian and instead stayed by his side alone.
However, the restoration of Beique has become an obsession for her. Even though she says she only wants her people to live peaceful lives, the deep-seated obsession in her heart still drives her to work hard for the restoration of the country.
When Yueyao learned that Ye Dingzhi had been taken to the Outer Heaven, she felt a mix of emotions.
Although he felt somewhat sorry for Ye Dingzhi, he couldn't help but feel a secret joy in his heart.
Because the dilemma she was facing finally had a solution.
However, when she saw Baili Dongjun's pained expression, she felt a little uncomfortable.
But in any case, sacrificing Ye Dingzhi is better than her losing her father or Dongjun being harmed.
In Baili Dongjun's heart, Yueyao was a fairy with a noble and pure heart.
Unfortunately, Yueyao is not a fairy; she is human, and humans have selfish desires.
Selfishness is a deep-seated flaw that humanity can never eradicate.
Even sages cannot escape worldly desires, let alone Yueyao?
Yueyao tried to persuade Baili Dongjun not to do this, but when Baili Dongjun's gaze fell on Yueyao, he couldn't help but think of Ye Dingzhi, who was far away in the Heavenly Realm and whose fate was unknown. Immediately afterward, an indescribable fear and self-blame surged into his heart.
Ye Dingzhi was captured by Tianwaitian entirely because of him.
This heavy sense of guilt felt like a boulder pressing on his chest, making Baili Dongjun feel suffocated.
Baili Dongjun couldn't help but think to himself: If something really happened to Ye Dingzhi, how could he face living in this world? How could he live happily ever after with Yueyao without any grudges?
On one side was the love of his life, and on the other was his best friend.
Both of them were among the most important people in his life.
Why did things turn out this way?
Why does fate have to play such a cruel trick on him?
Is it really impossible to have both?
Baili Dongjun struggled internally, and then fell into deeper pain.
By the time he realized what was happening, he was already in Tianqi City, and Yueyao, a remnant of the Northern Kingdom, had been imprisoned.
Baili Dongjun: ...
God! ! !
Baili Dongjun, who was already on the verge of collapse, collapsed even more.
The only thing that made Baili Dongjun feel relieved was that Ye Dingzhi was alright. Moreover, not only was he alright, but he also turned the tables and killed Yuefeng City. He joined forces with Lei Mengsha to eliminate Tianwaitian. Now that the Ye family has been exonerated, Ye Dingzhi has also resumed his original name, Ye Yun.
However, while Brother Yun is fine, Yueyao is still in jail!
As everyone watched the poignant love story between Baili Dongjun and Yueyao unfolding in prison, they were not moved at all. Instead, their faces showed bitterness and their brows were furrowed.
They had never felt time pass so slowly, as if every second was stretching on endlessly.
