He had also entrusted Ting with the same words.
Thus, once his children faced any crisis, he would be immediately aware.
...
...
One month later.
The Dashang reinforcements arrived.
Song An also summoned quite a number of soldiers from various army camps.
After recuperation, he had completely shed the disorder of the previous month and was spirited and determined, his gaze as sharp as an eagle’s, surveying the distant territories.
He knew his father had already left.
He never really understood why he had to struggle so hard, why he persisted so stubbornly...
But now, he seemed to have found some answers.
His father was too towering, too radiant, like a blazing sun hanging in the firmament. In such brilliance... everything seemed trivial. No matter what he achieved, people would inherently think, "Well, he is Song Cheng’s son; it’s expected of him."
Perhaps, what he wanted was to prove to the world, and to himself, that he was Song An. He was not only the son of Song Cheng but also his own person!
Life is short, and even entering the Pseudo-Profound Realm, in comparison to the mountains and rivers, we are still like bugs and mayflies, born in the morning and dead by night, unable to witness the spring and autumn.
But even then, so what?
’Dad, your life was about pursuing greater strength, to see more of the world. But your son simply wants to seize the present and leave the most splendid memory in the minds of future generations.’
"To shine with immortal martial prowess and light up the world!"
Great General Song clenched his fist and looked towards the horizon; he was determined to earn his fame, past and present, so that even a thousand years later, people would still recall the unbeatable general of a millennium ago, who conquered in battles to the south and the north, his numerous honors barely concealed by the scarce words of the chroniclers.
...
...
In the early autumn.
Song Cheng finally returned to the Imperial Capital.
Just like the prodigal son returning home, his heart faltered as he neared his hometown. The bustling city was just as he remembered, and yet... he began to feel nervous.
By the time he reached King Song’s Mansion, it was late into the night.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, perfectly round.
Under the full moon, a young girl with pure white pupils sat on a small stool, her head tilted back, apparently looking at something, her tiny fingers pointing and tracing shapes in the air.
Her fingers were directed at the stars.
It looked as though she was counting the stars.
But she was blind from birth, how could she see the stars?
"Counting what?" A strange yet gentle voice suddenly emerged beside the girl.
After a long pause, the girl responded, "Mommy said there are stars up there, I’m counting them."
As she spoke, she began to recite, "One, two, one, two, one, two, one... one, two, one, two, one, two, one..."
She had completely forgotten about the stranger beside her and didn’t realize a stranger had entered her home!
If it were a bad person, it would probably be very easy to abduct her, right?
Yet, the people inside the house had reacted.
"Who’s there?"
The door flew open, and a graceful figure rushed out, but upon seeing the person standing in the courtyard, she abruptly stopped, looking at him with surprise and joy.
"My lord..."
Su Ningyu ran towards him just as she did when they first met, throwing herself into Song Cheng’s embrace.
Even after giving birth to a daughter, she remained as she had always been, only slightly more mature...
"One, two, one, two, one, two, one..." The girl continued counting the unseen stars, silly and bewildered.
"Mo, your daddy is back," said Su Ningyu cheerfully as she squatted down and took the girl’s hand.
Song Cheng also squatted down, looking at his daughter with affection, then he turned to Su Ningyu and said, "I’ve made a breakthrough, but I’m still one step away from that transformative Realm..."
Surprised, Su Ningyu asked, "The land of the Four Evils you spoke of?"
Song Cheng replied, "I’ve given a name to this level of Realm... you know about the Soul Transformation Realm;
One can enter the Gray Membrane Realm after overcoming the Reappear Calamity;
Thereafter, by cultivating the techniques of the Four Strong, one can condense the Dharma Aspect, achieve Rebirth by Possession, and can be said to have reached the Rebirth Realm.
As for passing through the land of the Four Evil successfully, one can then display the Law of Heaven and Earth, where the Divine Soul looms a thousand feet tall, and the Dharma Aspect does likewise. Possession is no longer limited to one; as for how many, I do not know."
Su Ningyu’s voice trembled, "Then you..."
Song Cheng said, "I’ve reached the highest Realm that I can see, and the next opportunity... I roughly guess, is on Accumulating Thunder Mountain."
Su Ningyu fell silent for a long while.
She had been in the Soul Transformation Realm for many, many years, and it took great effort to break through the so-called Gray Membrane Realm. Now that she just stabilized her Realm, yet her husband...
"Daddy?"
Song Mo’s reaction finally caught up, and she responded to her mother’s earlier words, calling out a name before curiously muttering, "Daddy? Daddy?"
