Chapter 467 Fate and Darkness, My Promise
The sky is getting brighter, and everyone in the four major alliance forces is waiting for the information compiled by Longwei and Yuanchao. No one knows that the three biggest heroes of this mission are all trapped in a dangerous place.

The clouds in the sky are very thick, and today is not destined to be a good day.

Early in the morning, a cemetery outside Beijing.

There was only one old man in the cemetery. He had been standing alone in front of a tombstone since last night, staring at the name on the tombstone motionlessly.It's like a statue that has been silent for a whole night. If it is seen, it will definitely be scared to death.Fortunately, this is a cemetery, and no one dares to come here in the middle of the night.

The tombstone he faced only had a name, birth year and death year, and no identity was engraved on it.Such an unremarkable tombstone is worth the old man who is over sixty years old, and can guard it all night alone.

The name on the tombstone is a woman's name, written on it: Li Xiuzhu.

The old man was still looking at the name on the tombstone, his expression was a little numb, but there was some memory in his eyes, a little sad.As I get older, I have already passed the age of crying, leaving only dullness and memories.

"Wait for me, I will make a lot of money, and then come back to marry you." There was a bitter smile on the corner of the old man's mouth, these words were his promise when he was young.He fulfilled the promise he made when he was young, but she couldn't wait.

Can it be her fault?
No, it's not her fault.

So, whose fault is it?

Finally, the old man stretched out his old hands covered with calluses, gently stroked the name on the tombstone, and muttered to himself: "It's been 40 years, and I haven't been able to see you once. When I knew you moved to Eagle Country After staying for a while, I didn't dare to look for you. Even... when you went, I couldn't come to see you off...you don't blame me, do you?"

"You won't blame me." The old man smiled spontaneously: "You are so kind, you won't blame me, but I can't forgive myself."

"...and him."

The old man sighed heavily: "If I hadn't lost the fight with Tianxiao back then, if he hadn't sympathized with my relationship with you, if I hadn't made an agreement with him never to set foot in the Dragon Kingdom again , I came back long ago to kill that person. These years, I have suffered for you."

When the name Tianxiao was mentioned, a trace of admiration flashed in the old man's eyes, as well as a trace of pain.

Sky night?The second-generation elite of the Dragon Soul, a master who died of serious injuries after a battle with the shadow assassin Dandao.This old man had a fight with Tianxiao?Could it be that he is... the legend of killer, shadow assassin, Dandao 30 years ago?

Looking carefully at the old man's appearance, there is only a faint scar on his forehead.No matter how you look at his appearance, he is a pure dragon countryman, with high brows and thick lips, with a kind of old and vigorous temperament.There is probably only one pair of eyes worth noting in his whole body, which is full of gray and dead silence, as if he is indifferent to life and death in the world, and he doesn't care about anything anymore.

There is only one body left in the world.

The old man slowly raised his head, looked at the thick clouds in the sky with his dull and gray eyes, and murmured: "Tianxiao, I have broken my promise. Don't worry, I made an oath, if I break my oath, I will die for nothing." The place of burial. You believed me back then, and I will not let you down today. After I finish this last thing, I will keep my promise back then. This is... my last time. For her..."

After the old man finished speaking, he looked at the tombstone in a daze, with a little pain and sadness in his eyes.

Afterwards, he seemed to have turned back into a statue again, no longer speaking, just staring at the tombstone stupidly.

Very crazy, very crazy...

When the sky was completely bright, another person came up from the cemetery on the mountain.Besides this old man, she was the first one to come today.In fact, she would come over once a week, and each time it was so early.

It was a young girl who came, her soft and long hair fluttering gently with the mountain wind.Her hair is soft and light.She has a tall figure, and the slightly tight top highlights her perfect figure.The lower body is a mini skirt, revealing a pair of seductive white thighs, all men who see it will most likely swallow their saliva first.

The most interesting thing should be her face.Flawless skin, perfect facial features, high nose bridge, deep eyes.It was obvious at a glance that this young girl was of mixed race with foreign origin.But this mixed-race child is amazingly beautiful.

The young girl walked towards this side in a straight line, and when she saw the old man standing in front of the tombstone where she came every week, she froze for a moment.

Originally, the old man didn't care about her, but when he noticed that she stopped not far behind and then cast a startled look, the old man still couldn't help turning around and looking at her.

When a man sees a beautiful woman, especially a very seductive beauty, he will usually be amazed first, and then admire or look dirty.But in the eyes of the old man, there is nothing but gray.He just glanced at her face lightly, without wavering in his eyes, and turned back as if he was looking at a cloud of air that didn't exist.

The young girl looked at the back of the old man for a while, and she felt familiar with that back, as if she had seen a similar back somewhere before.

Finally, the girl stepped forward and gently placed a bouquet of flowers in her hand into the exquisite vase in front of the tombstone, replacing the dried bouquet that was originally placed in the vase.

"Who is she to you?" The old man silently watched the girl doing these things, and only asked after she stood up.His voice was hoarse and dry.It sounds as if it gives people a feeling of vicissitudes.

The girl raised her face, looked at the old man beside her who was half a head taller than her, nodded and said, "She is my god-grandmother."

"Oh." The old man showed a dazed expression: "You are Wen's little girl?"

The girl froze for a moment and asked, "You know me?"

"I don't know." The old man smiled lightly and said, "I only heard that she had a little girl from the Wen family as her granddaughter when she was in Ying Kingdom."

The girl smiled slightly and said, "My name is Wen Wei."

The old man nodded slightly. In fact, he and her have not been in touch for 40 years, and she never told him that she recognized a goddaughter.But for the past 40 years, he has been caring about her and everything about her.With his ability, he naturally has a way to know what's going on around her, so of course he also knows that she recognized Wen Wei as her granddaughter.

After a moment of silence, the old man said: "I thought...you were Siyu." There was a little dissatisfaction in his tone. Her beloved granddaughter did not come to visit her, but a goddaughter often came to visit her grave. .

Wen Wei seemed to hear the dissatisfaction in the old man's words, and smiled softly: "Siyu and I will visit the godmother every Sunday, and she usually comes earlier than me. Maybe something is delayed today. .”

The old man nodded and said nothing more.

Wen Wei seemed to hesitate for a while before asking: "Are you a friend of the godmother?"

"Friend?" The old man smiled with a strange expression, and said in a hoarse voice, "Is that right...friend...old friend."

After a pause, the old man asked again: "Aren't you in Eagle Country? When did you return?"

"My father's business moved back to China, and our whole family moved back with him."

The old man let out a soft "Oh", and after thinking for a while, he asked softly, "She... how was she doing in Eagle Country?"

Wen Wei looked at the old man in front of her with strange eyes, and replied, "Fortunately, I'm just alone, and I live a bit lonely."

The old man nodded lightly and said, "That's fine. In Ying Country, you are with her, so it doesn't mean that she loves you for nothing."

There was something strange in Wen Wei's eyes, after a long while she finally seemed to have made up her mind, when she was about to speak, the old man said first, "I'm leaving."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Wen Wei's response, she turned around and walked down the mountain.

Wen Wei hurriedly asked, "What should I call you?"

The old man stopped, turned his back to her, and said softly, "Just call me...forget it." The old man laughed at himself: "We won't have a chance to meet again in the future."

After speaking, he continued to walk down the mountain without looking back.

"Are you Grandpa Feng Danquan?" Wen Wei suddenly jumped out of such a sentence.

But when the old man heard the name, his whole body trembled.Although she couldn't see his expression, Wen Wei knew that she had guessed right.He is really the person that the godmother always misses. The godmother misses him all her life, misses him all her life, and misses him all her life.But he never showed up, even when she left, he never came to see her off.

Wen Wei knew that the godmother didn't blame him. She had heard the story between them from the godmother. It was very touching, really touching.

Although it was not earth-shattering, the love between them has lasted for half a century and will remain unswerving until death.It's a pity that good fortune tricks people. In that era, the most important thing is to be well-matched. How can a rich lady and a poor boy who only knows martial arts be together?So they were separated, he was tricked by her father to go abroad to start a career, and she was forced by her family to marry into a wealthy family.When he had accumulated a considerable amount of property and happily came back to find her, it was already too late.According to the godmother, he once vomited blood in anger, and later, for unknown reasons, he was chased and killed by the powerful forces of the Dragon Kingdom all over the world. It is estimated that he had an indirect relationship with the godmother.After that, there was no more news from him.As for the godmother, she also lived a very hard life, very hard... and even caused her son and granddaughter to live very hard in that wealthy family.Her descendants have always been looked down upon in that family because of her relationship.Siyu is her own granddaughter, and Wen Wei knows that although Siyu looks beautiful on the surface, she is actually a poor and miserable girl.But even so, she never resented her grandma, and would still visit her every Sunday.

Because Siyu knew that grandma was not wrong.

The man named Feng Danquan was not wrong either.

Wrong, just life.

Wen Wei sighed softly, she didn't expect that he was still alive, he came back, came back to see her.But what's the use of coming back now?
If you miss it, you miss it, and if you miss it once, you miss it for a lifetime.

The old man's voice was very soft, and he could tell that he tried to make his voice sound calmer, and asked, "Did she tell you?"

Wen Wei nodded and said: "When I was in Eagle Country, my god-grandmother often mentioned you and the things between you."

"That's right... She told you, she told me..."

"It's not just me, Siyu also knows."

"Hehe...haha...hahahaha..." The old man suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing very loudly and wildly.But Wen Wei could tell that his laughter was just to cover up the pain and suffering in his heart, as well as the tears that had already been shed.

"Fool... Xiuzhu, you fool..." The old man turned his back to Wen Wei, and murmured bitterly, "Why are you so stupid? I don't deserve your concern... Xiuzhu..."

Wen Wei didn't interrupt the old man's emotions, but just watched his back silently.That lonely figure once again felt familiar.She finally remembered why it was so familiar, because he had met a boy who also had the same lonely and desolate back.That boy, his name is 11, is now called Chu Yuan.

Maybe it was affected by the old man's emotions, or maybe he remembered the past, Wen Wei's eyes were moist without realizing it.

The old man laughed wildly for a long time, and talked to himself for a long time before he gradually calmed down.Still turning his back to Wen Wei, he took a deep breath and said, "Girl, thank you for being with her when she was the loneliest. I will stay in Longguo for about a week. If you have any difficulties, you can Come find me in room 3110 of Star King Hotel. Remember, I can do anything for you, no matter how big it is. But it’s only for one week, after this time... I won’t be here anymore. "

The old man made a pun, and Wen Wei didn't understand the meaning of the last sentence "I'm not here anymore", thinking that the old man would leave the sad place of Longguo after only staying for a week.

She shook her head and was about to decline, but the old man seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and said beforehand: "Don't rush to refuse me, I know that your family has money, but many things can't be done with money. As I said, I can do one thing for you, even if you ask me to assassinate the President of the Eagle Country for you, there is no problem. The time is only one week, come to me after you think about it."

After finishing speaking, the old man didn't miss it any more, and didn't say anything more, and just walked down the mountain with big strides.Only Wen Wei was left staring blankly at his lonely back, thinking about what he said just now, or thinking about the stories between him and her over the past 40 years.

When the old man reached the mountainside, a young girl came up from the foot of the mountain.The girl was wearing a plain dress that reached to her knees, and her long, soft hair was draped over her shoulders.Her height is not taller than Wen Wei's, only a little over 1.6 meters, and her figure is also a little thin. The first impression she gives is that of Lin Daiyu, who is weak and weak.She is very beautiful, with an appearance that is not weaker than Wen Wei's. Coupled with her weak temperament, men who see her will have a feeling of wanting to protect her well.

I believe that such a beautiful woman should be pursued and protected by many men, right?
But the old man knew that this young girl was not as beautiful as she appeared on the surface.On the contrary, her life was very unsatisfactory and bitter.

Is this her granddaughter?

When the old man saw the girl holding the same bouquet of flowers as Wen Wei, he guessed who she was.He slowly slowed down his pace, watched her approach a little bit from the opposite side, and looked at the child carefully, with a look of approval in his eyes.

This was originally the elder's admiration for the younger, but in the eyes of the girl opposite, the eyes changed.The girl first glanced at him indifferently, then a look of disgust flashed in her eyes, and then she passed the old man by pretending she didn't know anything.

The old man gradually slowed down his pace, and finally stopped altogether, turned around and watched the girl's figure disappear from his sight.He muttered to himself with some disappointment: "Is she your granddaughter? She is a good child. It's a pity that I was born in the Yang family... It's a pity that I only have a week at most. Xiuzhu, don't worry, she is your child, that is, My child. I will help her, even if it is only for a week, I will definitely help her out of this sea of ​​suffering and give her a lifetime of happiness. I will give her everything I didn't get, and what you don't have. This is my promise to you...Xiuzhu..."

On the mountain, the girl who had just met the old man on the mountainside saw Wen Wei standing in front of the tombstone from a distance, a smile appeared on her indifferent face, and she called out before approaching, "Sister Wen Wei."

"Ah?" Wen Wei, who was distracted, came back to her senses, only to notice that Yang Siyu had arrived, and responded with a slight smile: "Siyu, you are here."

"Yeah." Yang Siyu sighed and said, "My mother dragged me to talk about that matter early in the morning, so I came late."

"Oh, and you are being urged to marry that playful young master of the Zhang family?"

Yang Siyu frowned lightly and said, "You also know the character of that Zhang Decai, there is no way I would like him."

Wen Wei sighed, "I can't blame my aunt."

Yang Siyu smiled faintly, but her immature face showed a bit of maturity that did not match her age, perhaps this was forced by life.He said in a self-deprecating tone: "I know, it's my uncles. In their eyes, I am just a commodity that can be traded."

"Siyu..." Wen Wei didn't know how to comfort her. Her father, Yang Ziye, was the least qualified to speak in the Yang family, not even qualified to speak in the family.This is all thanks to her grandma, but Yang Siyu and her father have never blamed grandma in their life.Yang Siyu's lineage has the least status in the Yang family, and she was destined to be traded as goods since she was born, in exchange for greater family benefits.This is a huge family. There is no room for family affection in this family. Everything is only profit.Sighing, Wen Wei could only ask, "What are your plans?"

"What other plans do you have?" Yang Siyu's eyes flashed a trace of firmness: "Anyway, I, Yang Siyu, will not give in."

"Forget it, let's not talk about these annoying things." Yang Siyu waved his hand and smiled freely: "By the way, why are you standing here alone in a daze? Do you miss him?"

"Siyu..." Wen Wei hesitated for a moment, then said, "He's back."

"Who?"

"Feng Danquan."

"what!?"
