Chapter 974 Earth, Bearing the Suffering of All Things 3
"There are five people..."
"There are three costs..."
"You are one of them."
Dan Heng heard a familiar voice, but it quickly disappeared: "Is it over..."
Dan Feng: "It seems so. Those phantoms that are haunting you...are here to kill you."
The three of them arrived at the main hall of the Divine Enlightenment Tree Courtyard. Dan Heng said, "Compared to just now, it's surprisingly quiet here."
Heather: "Don't be careless, the tide of memory has become even more turbulent..."
Dan Feng suddenly noticed a place: "That is..."
"This pot of wine looks quite novel. Was it brought by Bai Heng?"
"These are the specialties of Thalassa that she left behind, specially prepared for this gathering."
"But she herself didn't come."
Seeing the figures of several people in front of them, Dan Heng and Dan Feng were slightly stunned.
Dan Feng: "The past left in your mind is far more than I thought."
Dan Heng: "I have seen this farewell before the battle more than once in my dreams."
"To the newly born Vajra, your past life was but an illusion. You understand these are your memories, but you cannot truly relate to them. For your own selfish desires, you misuse the power of dragon transformation, turning former friends and family into enemies... You must ask me, is this price worth it?"
At this time, several people in my past memories continued to talk.
Jing Yuan: "The Military Affairs Department attaches great importance to the Battle of Yuque. Yao Qing urgently summoned her back to perform scouting missions."
Ying Xing: "Some people just have wind in their blood and can't stop for a moment. No matter, I'll drink her share."
"Hey, why are you toasting now? Aren't you going to wait for Dan Feng?"
"Lord Dragon, naturally there are endless Dragon Master meetings to attend, which won't end anytime soon, so I won't wait for him. Bah... isn't this water?!"
Ying Xing, who had just taken a sip of water, turned around with a look of surprise. At this moment, Ying Xing, with white hair and purple eyes, and wrinkles on his face, looked very old.
Jing Liu: "I'm paraphrasing her exact words. War is at hand, and excessive drinking will only lead to mistakes. I'll place a fountain from the Crystal Palace of Thalassa here. She said that wine only truly tastes good when drunk after victory."
"You didn't tell me earlier."
"I didn't want to, but Ai and she insisted on seeing your expression when you took the first sip."
Jing Yuan: "Whether it's water or wine, if it's a gift from a friend, it's equally mellow."
Xingqiong Railway Yan Qing: "These are the former Yunshan Five Warriors."
Bai Heng of Starry Sky Railway: "I didn't expect to see the past again. These are the memories left in Dan Heng's heart."
Jing Yuan of Starry Sky Railway: "I didn't expect that old friends still remember these things."
Dan Feng: "Hasn't your old habit of putting a value on every word you say still been cured?"
Just as Dan Feng's shadow finished saying this, another identical voice came.
"Hasn't your old habit of putting a value on every word you say been cured yet?" At this moment, Dan Feng from the past also happened to appear here.
Jing Yuan: "You've come just in time. Everyone's been waiting for you. How about you drink three cups as punishment?"
Dan Feng: "Please spare me. Haven't I suffered enough at the Ancient Sea? I have already convinced the Dragon Masters that a Chi Ming Yun Yin Shi will go to the front lines and fight alongside our army in this battle."
Ying Xing: "It seems that your plan to deal with the Jidu Mirage can be implemented, Jing Yuan."
"Thank you for going against the majority, Danfeng." Jing Yuan also expressed his gratitude at this time.
Ying Xing said, "I didn't expect those Dragon Masters to really give in. After this battle, they will definitely..."
Dan Feng: "Everyone knows that countless Chi Ming will inevitably die, never to return, never to have the chance to shed their scales and be reborn. However, if they do not share the joys and sorrows, the Chi Ming will not be able to become a part of the alliance's destiny, but only a bystander to the suffering of others."
Jing Liu: "We all know this. This is why we gather here. Come, raise your glasses, everyone. This toast is not for us to practice with each other... but for those who will never return, for our companions."
Looking at the four people in front of him raising their glasses and drinking together, Dan Feng sighed lightly and walked over step by step.
At this moment, Dan Feng among the four seemed to have sensed something. He looked into the eyes of Dan Feng's phantom, and then Dan Feng disappeared.
Before Dan Feng could figure it out, Jing Yuan spoke again, "I'm sorry, my crazy plan must have put a lot of pressure on you."
Realizing that Jing Yuan was talking to him, Dan Feng also said: "Don't say such things. If the positions were reversed, no matter how chaotic my plan was, you would definitely support me, right?"
Jing Yuan sighed softly when he heard this: "Of course, but don't be too reckless."
After saying this, Jing Yuan disappeared, and Jing Liu continued, "When you make a decision like this, people will always ask you if it's worth it? ... And you will repeatedly question yourself. Faced with such questions, do you know how to answer?"
Dan Feng pondered for a moment and then said, "I won't answer, I will prove it."
"Yes, I answered with my troops."
Jingliu left after he finished speaking.
"Thank you, Danfeng! Thank you, Jingyuan! Thank you, Jingliu! Thank you, Baiheng, who has disappeared to who knows where!"
Ying Xing looked up at the sky, while Dan Feng said, "You drunkard, can you get drunk by drinking some spring water?"
"Hmph, I just feel great! It's like the exhilaration of crafting a divine weapon! I'd rather be a firefly flying into a flame than a dead tree forever... In the past, I always felt this way from the bottom of my heart.
But, thanks to meeting you, I have never felt so alive as I do now. I have never wanted to live a little longer - no, you can't say that! Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"
Ying Xing also gradually disappeared in the laughter.
Dan Feng was silent for a while, and Dan Heng stepped forward and said, "It's over."
Dan Feng: "You know all too well what happened to these five people. So, when Xing and Sanyueqi left you, did you understand? Losing your close friends, who you've shared joys and sorrows with, is not a victory; it's a tormenting defeat. I will never accept that fate."
"You made your choice."
"It was me who used the magic of dragon transformation. It was me who vowed to bring Bai Heng back to the world. It was also me who made everything irreversible."
"Dan Feng, do you have any regrets in your heart?"
"Even if time could be reversed, I wouldn't make a second choice. If it were Jingliu, Jingyuan... or even Yingxing who died in the battle, my answer would be the same."
Starry Sky Iron Blade: "You really won't change your mind, but if it were me, would I change it?"
Yun Li of Xingqiong Railway: "All of this is already in the past. There's no point in regretting it."
Genshin Impact Zhongli: "I want to buy some osmanthus flowers and carry them with me to drink, but we are no longer friends anymore."
