The ins and outs of Yan Shouyi's situation were revealed, and it turned out that between General Qing Jiang and Princess Yu Shu, there was also Princess Wen Yan.
As for this Princess Wen Yan, because she was too sensible, she never asked anything of General Qing Jiang, but endured and gave silently on her own.
In the end, she simply watched General Qing Jiang and Princess Yu Shu leave together from afar, while she herself, for the sake of her country and family, went to the north and ultimately died for love.
From beginning to end, Princess Wen Yan was alone.
Thinking of this, Yan Shouyi couldn't help but feel sorry for Princess Wen Yan. As a princess of a nation, she was so humble in love, and in death, she had gained nothing.
But in love, someone always gets hurt, and this can never change.
At this moment, Yan Shouyi could only quietly accompany General Qing Jiang, regretting together with him.
After an unknown amount of time, General Qing Jiang finally controlled his emotions and said, "I owe Wen Yan too much, more than I can repay in lifetimes. Moreover, my entanglement with her is too deep. You might even meet her in this life."
"I will meet her again?!" Yan Shouyi was greatly surprised and quickly recalled the girls he knew.
Which one among them could be Princess Wen Yan?
"Not only will you meet, but she will also fall in love with you as she did in the previous life."
"This..."
To have the gossip turn back on oneself was truly something.
Yan Shouyi's head immediately started to ache with distress.
In fact, his personality was somewhat different from General Qing Jiang's. General Qing Jiang was, after all, a man of slaughter, more decisive in his actions.
But Yan Shouyi was different; no matter what, Yan Shouyi always strived for the best of both worlds.
But how could love have a solution that satisfied both? It couldn't possibly be polygamy, could it?
Yan Shouyi couldn't get past this hurdle, let alone Lin Zhitong.
"General, what should I do?" Yan Shouyi said helplessly, turning to the general for help.
General Qing Jiang gave a wry smile, "If I knew what to do, I wouldn't have failed Wen Yan back then."
"Alas!"
They both sighed involuntarily.
Yan Shouyi thought for a moment and asked, "How can I recognize Princess Wen Yan in this life?"
If he could keep his distance from Princess Wen Yan before meeting her, perhaps she wouldn't fall in love with him in this life.
He had to strike first!
Therefore, Yan Shouyi had to recognize Princess Wen Yan first.
General Qing Jiang then recalled, "The Qing Jiang totem."
"What totem?"
"The Qing Jiang Kingdom and the Yu Shu Kingdom were both in the Shu region, so their cultures had many similarities, especially their totems. The Yu Shu Kingdom's totem was a snake with its head and tail connected, while the Qing Jiang Kingdom's totem was a coiled snake."
Upon hearing this, Yan Shouyi suddenly thought of something and his mouth fell open.
"What's wrong?" the General asked.
Yan Shouyi dipped his finger in tea and drew a pattern on the table, then asked, "Is the Qing Jiang Kingdom's totem like this?"
The General looked down for a while, then said with a frown, "Although it's not entirely correct, it has some resemblance."
"It's over, it's over..."
Yan Shouyi's expression was extremely grim.
What he had drawn on the table was not a coiled snake, but a poop emoji!
The reason he thought of this was because he had once given Liu Yiren a poop-shaped bracelet!
Actually, he hadn't thought much of it at the time, it was just a spur-of-the-moment decision to carve the bracelet into the shape of poop.
And Liu Yiren, a lady from a prominent family, inexplicably liked the poop pattern, which even perplexed the Liu family at the time.
Now, thinking back, everything was explained.
Liu Yiren was the reincarnated Princess Wen Yan!
Her love for the Qing Jiang Kingdom was still imprinted on her soul even after reincarnation!
It was only because the imprint was blurred, and due to the different eras, that Liu Yiren interpreted it as a poop pattern.
And when Yan Shouyi met Liu Yiren, his subconscious had also played a role, leading him to coincidentally carve the poop pattern!
That so-called poop pattern was actually the Qing Jiang Kingdom's totem, a symbol imprinted on the Qing Jiang Kingdom's military flag...
Yan Shouyi glanced sideways at the General's scaled armor. On the chest protector, there was indeed the coiled snake pattern.
"What's wrong?" the General asked anxiously.
Yan Shouyi sighed, "It's too late. I've already met Princess Wen Yan and have some entanglement with her."
General Qing Jiang also felt a headache.
They were silent for a while, then the General said, "I was powerless in the previous life. This time, you still have a chance to compensate. Consider it a favor I owe you. Regardless, don't fail her again in this life."
"This... I find it hard to guarantee," Yan Shouyi said with a crying face. "The current society advocates monogamy, and given Princess Yu Shu's personality in this life, she would definitely not accept me seeing someone else. Besides, I don't want to either..."
General Qing Jiang angrily said, "You brat, don't act like you're not benefiting while complaining!!"
"I'm telling the truth. This matter is inherently difficult to resolve perfectly. Moreover, back then you were a general with great power, and even you couldn't accomplish it, so why should you expect me to?" Yan Shouyi retorted.
General Qing Jiang immediately calmed down. He sighed, "We cannot owe Wen Yan any longer."
"Of course, I know that, but this matter still requires careful consideration," Yan Shouyi could only sigh.
General Qing Jiang counted on his fingers and said, "It's almost time for you to go back."
"Let me go back. After I meet Princess Wen Yan in this life, I'll think of what to do," Yan Shouyi had to face it with a stiff upper lip.
"I'll give you something."
General Qing Jiang extended his hand, and in his palm was the sword intent he had obtained from Wang Qihe.
The sword intent was condensed into a grain of rice, golden all over, emitting a strong sword intent.
"This is the sword intent that old fellow cultivated for sixty years. I've removed the impurities, and now it's the purest sword intent," the General said. "Although you use a saber, sabers and swords are connected. After you digest this sword intent, you can use it to learn saber techniques, and you will surely make rapid progress and achieve great accomplishments."
Yan Shouyi did not refuse and thanked General Qing Jiang.
General Qing Jiang flicked his hand, and the sword intent immediately flew into Yan Shouyi's brow and entered it.
Yan Shouyi felt the sword intent attacking, and his mind became slightly dizzy and heavy.
"You should go back now. Remember not to mistreat Wen Yan, consider it repayment for saving your life."
After General Qing Jiang finished speaking, he splashed the tea water, and Yan Shouyi's body floated up, soon flying out of the bamboo forest.
Seeing Yan Shouyi leave, General Qing Jiang couldn't help but look back at his scaled armor.
The small coiled snake flag on the chest of the scaled armor was actually sewn by Princess Wen Yan herself.
She hoped he would fight bravely on the battlefield and defend his country.
But he found his lifelong love on the battlefield, even abandoning his home and country for her and fleeing far away.
Debts can be repaid, but this debt of affection... how can it be repaid?
...
Within the Eight Palaces Yuan Yang Formation!
Yan Shouyi, holding a charred and unrecognizable corpse, suddenly opened his eyes.
Yan Gui and San Yuan were flying in the sky, looking at Yan Shouyi with concern.
Seeing him open his eyes again, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, they really thought Yan Shouyi was about to be possessed by Wang Qihe. Now, it seemed Wang Qihe had failed.
Yan Shouyi was still enduring the torment of the earth fire. He quickly deactivated his Qimen Dunjia technique.
The moment he put away his compass.
The two incense sticks had burned out. The Dafeng novel network.
The Eight Palaces Yuan Yang Formation shattered!!
Sunlight shone into the Ten Thousand Laws Altar again, and Yan Shouyi saw the light of day once more!
Outside the formation, Lin Zhitong and the others looked anxiously into the formation.
They saw Yan Shouyi, covered in black, bathed in fire, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes!!
"Brother Yan is alive!" Long Feicheng shouted excitedly.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The Old Heavenly Master also smiled, "I thought it would be good if he could last for two incense sticks. I didn't expect him to kill Wang Qihe instead. Interesting!"
Although Zhang Sishui looked down on Yan Shouyi, at this moment, he had to admire Yan Shouyi's skill.
No matter what, Wang Qihe was an elder, having lived for decades longer than Yan Shouyi. He was from a prestigious sect and had come prepared to kill Yan Shouyi this time.
Yet, Yan Shouyi still managed to survive.
His life was truly tenacious!
The earth fire gradually extinguished. Lin Zhitong was about to step onto the stage to check Yan Shouyi's injuries, but suddenly stopped, her expression turning strange. Daifeng novel.
Most of the others were the same.
Long Feicheng, Wang Jiwang, He Xiping, and other young men looked shocked, even a little inferior.
Luo Ning, Zhao Yiyao, Ling Xiaoxiao, and other young women were all blushing and quickly averted their gaze.
Yan Shouyi, unaware of anything amiss, pushed aside Wang Qihe's unrecognizable corpse and waved at Lin Zhitong with a smile:
"I'm fine! I'm alive!!"
Lin Zhitong helplessly threw out the Red God Umbrella, and it opened beneath Yan Shouyi's crotch.
Yan Shouyi looked utterly bewildered. It was only then that he realized everyone's reaction seemed a bit off.
He looked down and was stunned.
He had just used the earth fire to perish together with Wang Qihe, and his whole body had been burned. His wounds could heal, but his clothes couldn't withstand the fierce flames!
So, after the Eight Palaces Yuan Yang Formation shattered, Yan Shouyi, a grown man, stood naked on the Ten Thousand Laws Altar.
Both the disciples of Longhu Mountain and the guests attending the Luotian Grand Ceremony had seen Yan Shouyi in his entirety...
Yan Shouyi's heart sank...
"San Yuan!"
Yan Shouyi shouted loudly. San Yuan immediately descended from the sky, shielding Yan Shouyi's body with its wings, blocking everyone's view.
The Old Heavenly Master winked at a young Taoist priest beside him. The young priest quickly fetched new clothes and delivered them to the Ten Thousand Laws Altar.
Yan Shouyi changed into his clothes on the Ten Thousand Laws Altar and came out with a red face.
This time, he was truly mortified...
To display himself in front of so many people...
He felt he could never show his face again...
Unexpectedly, Long Feicheng and the others ran onto the stage and said first:
"Brother Yan, you've been hiding well! I always thought I was the number one young dragon in Rongcheng, but I didn't expect Brother Yan to be the reincarnation of a giant dragon! Did you see the way the male disciples below were looking at you? Their reverence for you is like a mighty river, unending! From now on, you are our role model, the goal we strive for our entire lives!"
"Let's put aside whether your strength is good or not. Just this size alone makes it difficult for them to catch up to you. Seeing this today, they will probably live in your shadow for the rest of their lives!!"
