Age of Heroes, ten consecutive guarantees

A child was born.

"Oh, congratulations sister-in-law, it's a boy!"

"You have worked hard."

"Sister-in-law, would you like to give the child a name?"

"Like his father who passed away, let's name him Ping... I don't want him to do so many big things, I just want him to live in peace for the rest of his life."

"But wouldn't this mean he has the same name as his father?"

"In my opinion, if you add the word "no", it will be called injustice."

"Listen to you."

…

In the study room, the child is practicing calligraphy wholeheartedly.

A little head poked out of the window.

"Brother Buping, why are you practicing calligraphy again? Come out and play together."

"No, I want to practice calligraphy."

"Isn't practicing calligraphy boring?"

"How can it be boring? Besides, my mother said that as long as I finish reading all the books in the study and can read, memorize and write...she will come back to see me."

"Oh, then let me practice calligraphy with you."

"Why don't you go out and play with them?"

"I feel more happy when I'm with you."

…

In the courtyard, the boy was sweating like rain while carrying a heavy stone.

"The only way to become a better person is to endure hardships. You are born with a weak body and need to work hard. Other people's bones are born to grow strong, but your bones have to be broken before they can grow thicker and stronger."

"Yes, Third Grandpa."

"Although your talent is ordinary, as long as you work hard, you can reach the third level."

"how long it takes?"

"Fifty years...but boy Buping, I don't understand why you are so obsessed with this?"

"You can't leave the village until you reach the third level."

"Isn't it good in the Land of Dragons? There is no such peaceful life outside. You must have been fascinated by the colorful world in those books. But everyone has been young, and only after going outside do you realize that the flowers may not be bright and the grass is green."

"My mother went outside, so I have to go too."

"Chier...your mother is..."

"Brother I'm sorry!"

"The little girl is here again, you can take a rest."

"No, I can practice for another half hour."

"Brother Bu Ping, we agreed to go to the morning market today, so don't leave me alone, okay?"

"Go ahead, go ahead, you have to keep your promises, you know?"

…

At the Longzhixiang Pier, the sea water beats the case, and the boy has become a teenager.

"Third Grandpa, thank you for taking care of me all these years. It's time for me to leave."

"I didn't expect that in just eight years, you would reach such a level. Maybe God rewards hard work, but you are born with deficiencies. This speed of improvement is worrying."

"no need to worry."

"It's okay to go for a walk outside, but remember to come back and see. The little girl is still waiting for you. She is reluctant to let you go, but she also knows that she can't hold you back, so she simply won't come."

"Third Grandpa, please say goodbye to Ya'er for me."

"..."

"Why are you here?"

"Hey, I hid in the box secretly. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to go out with you."

"Nonsense!"

"I just want to have some mischief. I want to go out together. Don't even think about leaving me!"

"..."

"Brother Bu Ping, don't leave me alone, okay?"

"You, hey... that's it, just this time, but if you don't obey, I will send you back at any time."

"I knew you were the best to me!"

…

In front of a lonely grave, smoke and dust curled up. The young man knelt in front of the grave and kowtowed nine times.

"My mother has passed away? But why, they didn't tell me."

"Your mother is just an ordinary person, not a dragon. She didn't want to tell you the truth, so she returned to her hometown alone and asked her family to help with the funeral."

"Even so, she should have told me!"

"Silly boy, she just doesn't want to make you sad."

"Is it……"

"Yes."

"But I think she just doesn't love me. She loves her father more than me, so she doesn't want to stay."

"Alas...child, there are many things in the world that cannot be explained clearly in just a few words."

"..."

"Brother I'm sorry, I..."

"I want to be alone."

"Okay, I'll stay with you."

"I said, I want to be alone for a while."

"I won't talk and won't disturb you."

"I said that!"

"I won't leave you alone."

"..."

"I promise I won't leave you alone, no matter what happens."

"……good."

…

The capital of Daxia, Huangjintai.

"Concession."

"You're so good, I give up."

"..."

"Don't you say anything? If you win this battle, you will definitely be named Feng Haoyue."

"I don't have any real feelings. After this experience is over, I should go home."

"You've obviously captured Haoyue, but you're just a piece of cake, and you actually want to go home?"

"I don't adapt to life here, but I miss my hometown more."

"Then, remember to treat me to a drink next time you come to the capital. However, there has been some chaos in the south recently, and there is a demonic disaster happening. You'd better go around."

"I'll pay attention."

…

In the burning ruins, the young man went crazy and walked through the ruins until...

"Sorry, when we arrived, there was no way to save her... She saved most of the children in the nursery. She is a hero."

"Where is she."

"there……"

"..."

"Aren't you satisfied with my brother?"

"Um."

"Sorry, I can't see now."

"It doesn't matter."

"Am I ugly now?"

"Not ugly."

"Can you please stop looking at me?"

"It's not ugly, it's pretty."

"……sorry."

"Don't apologize."

"I said I wouldn't leave you alone. I'm sorry, but I can't keep my promise."

"You're just hurt, you're going to get better."

"I like brother Buping. I want to marry you and give you a lot of children, but..."

"I promise you, I will marry you."

"I'm so happy...but not now, it's too late in this life, so you must promise me one thing, okay?"

"You, you say."

"forget me, please."

…

The hometown of dragons, the ancestral hall.

"You have been keeping vigil for seven days, go back."

"Elder..."

"Go back, people always have to look forward."

"But what if I can't let go?"

"You are the only one left in this line of incense. How can you remain unmarried for the rest of your life?"

"Third Grandpa, I have been disobedient since I was a child."

"You kid!"

"From now on, I will only live for my clan, so that my clan will not suffer the pain of separation of flesh and blood, and will not bear the pain of separation of loved ones by death... I hope everyone in the world will listen to this oath."

…

A hundred years passed in a flash, after the Council of Elders ended.

"Wandering."

"Great Elder."

"After I leave, you can take over the position of Great Elder."

"Me? But I still..."

"I arranged it, and they won't have any objections."

"But Great Elder, you are less than a hundred years old, are you in a hurry to retire at this time?"

"I plan to try seclusion. I have been at the peak of the fourth level for many years. I wonder if I will have the opportunity to touch that level. If I succeed, my dragon clan will have good weather in the next five hundred years; if I fail, it will be nothing more than death. That’s all, I’m already alone, so why wouldn’t I want to leave?”

"Great Elder, I'm afraid I can't bear it."

"The rest is up to you. It will be very hard."

…

Deep in the ancestral hall, there is the Dragon Clan’s tomb.

"Decades passed by and all the efforts were in vain."

"Maybe I don't have this talent in the first place."

"It's so difficult to transform into a dragon. How can it be done behind closed doors?"

"I don't have much life left in this life, so I won't go out and cause trouble to the clansmen. I might as well sit here and die..."

"Mother, Ya'er...I'll come..."

boom--!

A huge roar tore through the tranquility, and a dark arm, like it was covered with countless wild beast claws, tore apart the ancestral hall and hollowed it out.

Long Buping's eyes widened as he watched the madman he saw for the first time in his life walk up to him, pass over his side, and walk straight towards the remains of the Dragon King.

"You little thief, how dare you!"

He let out a hoarse roar.

But the moment he turned around, he was lightly slapped on the back, a mouthful of blood spurted out, a hole was dug out of the old body, and a heart that was almost no longer beating was thrown to the ground.

Long Buping sat on the ground, his muscles trembling all over, but under his dry body, there was already burned out spiritual power like ashes.

Soul, life... everything, almost nothing remains.

How could he resist Zhen Shifang who was at its peak.

I could only watch helplessly as he stretched out his hand to reach for the Dragon King's bones and grasped the spine.

The old man's eyes were about to burst, but he couldn't make any sound from his throat. Only strong hatred was burning in his mind.

He refused.

He is not fair.

Throughout his life, looking back, he saw nothing but failures.

I want to find my mother, but what I see is a lonely tomb in a deserted grave. The son wants to be raised but cannot be kissed.

She wanted to stay with her love for the rest of her life, but something unexpected happened to her. She was buried underground at a young age, and she will never let go of her life.

I want to do my best for the people and guard the tomb for Longxiang for more than a hundred years, but there is no hope of breakthrough. It can be said that half of my life has been wasted without achievement, and my God-given talent has been wasted.

If so, that's it.

But he had to witness with his own eyes the scene of Longxiang being trampled by madmen.

Let him watch helplessly as the remains of his ancestors were taken away by such lawless evil parties.

But because his life has come to an end, he can do nothing. He can only watch and can't even make a sound.

This incident was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Let him face an avalanche of pain at the last moment of his life.

All the pain, all the injustice, all the anger, regret, and sentimentality that I have experienced in my life all burst out at this moment.

Things cry when there is injustice.

The dragon cannot cry when there is injustice.

Even if he died, he would not close his eyes.

I will never die with my eyes in peace.

His wandering soul will never find peace and cannot return to reincarnation.

The resentment is soaring to the sky, the obsession is deep in the bones, like the evil ghosts in hell crying day and night, unable to escape.

…

It's like someone who has experienced the other person's entire experience.

Even if it is just a quick glance, there are still too many emotions left behind.

When running water washes away rocks, the rocks will not disintegrate, but they will always leave a layer of water stains.

Bai Yu put his hand on his forehead and took several breaths in succession.

He opened his eyes and looked at the white-haired old man on the other side of the stone table.

"It turns out that the heroic spirit behind that 'mysterious fang' is you...Long Buping."
