Chapter 619 Xue Di: Are You Tired?

Under Su Luoheng's friendly negotiation:

Although the royal family and nobles of Tianhun were aggrieved, they did not dare to make any rash moves. They had no objection to the new emperor's enthronement and obediently made all the necessary preparations as required. The court also resumed normal operation.

In addition, the high-level officials of Tianhun took the initiative to request and resolutely signed a soul contract with Su Luoheng, guaranteeing that the Tianhun Empire would absolutely and completely obey the dispatch of the Sun and Moon Empire from now on.

Everything was happy, at least in Su Luoheng's opinion. The high-level officials of the Tianhun Empire were very aware of the current situation. They took the initiative to do everything without saying anything.

They knew that if they tore their faces with the Sun and Moon Empire, it was hard to say what would happen to the Tianhun Empire, but they would definitely not be able to escape. Only by signing the contract could they save their lives.

A step back, even if they did not agree, someone would agree. A step back, even if the high-level officials of the empire were all good and loyal ministers, the Sun and Moon Empire did not have only this one choice. Under the current circumstances, occupying the Tianhun Empire is only a matter of thought.

Don't get confused. The puppet emperor is not a compromise of the Sun-Moon Empire, but a chance for them to survive and show their own value.

You have to keep one of the empire's autonomy and your own life.

Now that the former can no longer be kept, you have to keep your life, right?

Therefore, under the joint whitewashing of the Tianhun royal family and the nobles, this invasion war originally launched by the Sun-Moon Empire was eventually defined as a just war to assist the internal reform of the Tianhun Empire, and all the problems were put on Weilin's head.

Anyway, the person is dead, so it's not too much to use him, right?

The reason why the Sun-Moon Empire chose to support the puppet emperor instead of taking advantage of the situation to occupy Tianhun City in one fell swoop was the final decision made by Su Luoheng, Xu Jinyu and Kong Deming after careful consideration.

The purpose of unifying the continent is to devote the power of the Douluo Continent, integrate resources and population, reproduce the super-ancient soul guide technology, create a series of soul guides for the God Realm such as Ragnarok, and deal with crises.

And to avoid people with ulterior motives from stabbing in the back. Interfere with the plan, and even expose the super ancient soul guide technology, and lead the God Realm in advance to encircle the continent again.

Before that, the base camp Douluo Continent must be made into an iron plate.

Therefore, Su Luoheng started the war to unify the continent.

If you want, the Sun and Moon Empire can indeed directly occupy the Heavenly Soul Empire. But in this way, it is bound to arouse the resistance of the people of the Heavenly Soul Empire. At that time, the people's resentment is boiling, the war is constant, and the situation becomes out of control.

Land is easy to get, but the people's hearts are hard to get.

No matter how corrupt the Heavenly Soul Empire is, it has ruled this land for thousands of years. Their influence is deeply rooted and cannot be eliminated overnight.

It will undoubtedly take a lot of time to completely control it.

And during this period, the resistance of the Heavenly Soul Empire will inevitably clamp the energy and time of the Sun and Moon Empire. The population and resources are constantly being consumed. It is definitely an extremely bad situation.

Therefore, the advantages of occupying the Heavenly Soul Empire outweigh the disadvantages, and this will be a long-term and unpredictable loss.

Therefore, after Su Luoheng and the other two discussed, they chose a method that would achieve the effect without causing hatred among the people of the Tianhun Empire - supporting the puppet emperor.

The Sun and Moon Empire did not need to invest too much energy. As long as it controlled the top leaders of the Tianhun Empire, it could easily achieve its goal.

Generally speaking, this kind of plan is very unstable, because people's hearts are unpredictable. Even if there is military coercion, there may be a backstab at any time.

But the soul contract that Su Luoheng mastered solved the worries.

…

…

Late at night.

Thousands of miles away from Tianhun City, on the top of the mountain.

In the dark night sky, the stars are hidden in the clouds and mist, lighting up little by little, as if they are about to drill out of the gaps in the clouds at any time.

The full moon on the horizon emits a faint white light, which sprinkles on the earth and lights up Su Luoheng's tired eyes. A few strands of white hair on the temples glow silver under the moonlight, like the Milky Way flowing down.

He raised his arm, as if to block the moonlight, but paused, slowly closed his eyes, and quietly felt the comfort of the evening breeze.

At this moment, he seemed to merge into the world, and his spirit, which had been tense since the war, finally relaxed at this moment.

The sound of tiny footsteps was particularly clear in the silent night.

Xue Di, wearing a white cloak, walked to Su Luoheng's side. She stared quietly. For a long time, so long that Su Luoheng opened his eyes, she slowly spoke, with a hint of heartache in her soft voice.

"Are you tired?"

The person who understands Su Luoheng the best in the world is probably Xue Di. Even Su Junran and his wife don't know what kind of pressure and responsibility Su Luoheng is carrying in his heart.

"Not tired, just a little tired." Su Luoheng smiled faintly, with a warm arc at the corner of his mouth.

Xue Di sighed, wanting to say that you have done enough, and you don't have to take all the responsibilities on yourself. But when the words came to her lips, they finally turned into a low sigh.

Because she knew Su Luoheng would say: My responsibility should be borne by me. If my efforts can exchange for the people I cherish to live a safe and happy life, it would be great.

Even if I sacrifice myself...

Because that's what he responded to before.

Thinking of this, Xue Di took off her cloak and spread it on the ground.

Then she sat down cross-legged, gently patted the place beside her, and signaled Su Luoheng.

Su Luoheng then sat beside her, resting his head on Xue Di's knees, half lying down.

Looking at the starry night sky.

Xue Di stretched out her hand, covered his forehead with her slender white jade fingers, and gently rubbed it. The cold and soft fingertips, with a refreshing coolness, instantly reduced Su Luoheng's fatigue a lot.

He stretched out his hand sideways, gently hugged Xue Di's slender and soft waist, and put his face on Xue Di's lower abdomen. The elegant and familiar fragrance lingered between the wings of his nose, accompanied by Xue Di's cold breath, making people feel extremely comfortable.

He closed his eyes and enjoyed the tranquility and warmth.

The two sat quietly like this, and no one spoke. Only the night wind whistled, causing the lapels to flutter, making a rustling sound, showing the tranquility here.

Under the moonlight, the white hair at the temples was particularly eye-catching.

The hair fluttered in the wind, and Xue Di's heart trembled slightly. She stretched out her hand and brushed it gently.

He was only seventeen years old... He was young and vigorous. But he took on so much pain and responsibility and lived so hard.

Although there were only a few strands of white hair, Xue Di seemed to see from them the lonely scene of him fighting for his future, with his hair all white, his heart exhausted, and his body exhausted.

For a moment, his heart was extremely bitter, and his eyes were slightly red.
