Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I am the White Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 16 Is my son brave? Brave! Bravest among all the soldiers!!!
Wu'an City.

The people in the city obviously had not yet recovered from the pain of the war, and the pedestrians on the road were far less bustling than when Dai Chengfeng first entered the city.

Dai Chengfeng looked at this scene and shook his head. "Uncle, the old woman who wants to see me lives in the northern suburbs, right?"

"Ah."

Zhu Fan nodded, "It's just Chengfeng, if it doesn't work, I'll go by myself, you don't have to go."

"I heard that the old woman is now in her seventies and has only one child, Xu Feng. Her husband was also a soldier, but he died in a war ten years ago."

"She's all alone now, and she doesn't want any compensation but insists on seeing you..."

"I'm afraid I'm going to blackmail you, right?"

Dai Chengfeng shook his head. "Xu Feng could say that the Yu family was poor, so they refused to give up an inch of land, and then died for justice. Her mother couldn't be the person you think she is, uncle."

"That's hard to say." Zhu Fan shook his head. "Chengfeng, you still have too little experience!"

“There aren’t many good people in this world, but there are plenty of bad people!”

"uncle!"

Looking at Dai Chengfeng, who had a serious voice and a slightly frowned brow, Zhu Fan was helpless. "Alright, alright, uncle won't say anything more. I just hope she doesn't be ungrateful!"

The two of them said nothing more and headed towards the northern suburbs of Wu'an City.

Zhu Fan didn't stop until he came to a dilapidated thatched house.

"Chengfeng, this is it."

Dai Chengfeng looked at the leaky house in front of him and frowned slightly, "Isn't Xu Feng a centurion of my empire? Why does he live in a house like this?"

"If he had saved up all his military pay over the years, it would have been enough for him to buy a large house."

Zhu Fan shook his head. "I don't know either, but the address Zhu Yan gave is definitely this."

"Okay." Dai Chengfeng nodded. "Maybe when I meet that person... I'll understand."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and knocked gently on the door.

Not long after, Dai Chengfeng saw an old woman with white hair and a hunched back slowly walking out.

She was so thin that she seemed to be blown down by a gust of wind, and every step she took was extremely difficult.

Seeing this, Dai Chengfeng hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Auntie, are you the mother of Centurion Xu Feng?"

Upon hearing this, the old woman raised her wrinkled face, looked at Dai Chengfeng with cloudy eyes, and said in a trembling voice, "You...you are His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince?"

Dai Chengfeng nodded gently. "I heard from my uncle that you don't want money, you just want to see me and ask me a question?"

The old woman's lips trembled slightly, and she nodded slowly. She stretched out her calloused hands, tightly grasped Dai Chengfeng's arm, and her voice was choked with sobs.

"Yes, Your Highness. I don't want money. I just want to ask you a question in person. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll die with regrets..."

Dai Chengfeng gently supported the old woman and said, "Auntie, I'm here. Please ask."

"My son is brave on the battlefield, isn't he?"

The old woman's voice was filled with trepidation. "I heard that Your Highness was seriously injured while protecting the people of our city. Did Feng'er cause any trouble for you?"

"Is he worthy of the people of Wu'an City?"

In an instant, Dai Chengfeng was stunned.

This was a problem he had never imagined before...

Looking at the old woman whose eyes were filled with anxiety and expectation, Dai Chengfeng felt extremely complicated and said in a firm voice, "Brave!"

"Bravest among the three armies!!!"

Dai Chengfeng gritted his teeth and roared in a low voice.

"Centurion Xu Feng, he has never dragged anyone down, and he is worthy of everyone!"

"He... is the pride of all the soldiers in the Xingluo Empire!!!" "That's good, that's good..."

As if she had finally gotten the answer she wanted, the old woman seemed to have lost all her strength. She staggered to a peach tree and slowly sat down.

Looking at the peach tree tenderly, he murmured, "This was planted by Feng'er himself when he was in the army."

"He said that when this peach tree grows up, the peaches it produces will be very sweet."

The old woman raised her hand and gently stroked the leaves of the peach tree, smiling softly, "It has grown so big in the blink of an eye. It should bloom and bear fruit next year..."

The boy is determined to leave his hometown and will not return until he becomes famous. Why bury his bones in his hometown? There are green mountains everywhere in life!
Looking at the old woman who was now alone, Dai Chengfeng pursed his lips and said nothing more.

country?
How can we maintain our country when the world is in chaos and war?
Home?
How can the people, displaced as they are, find a home?
Dai Chengfeng felt extremely complicated, with only four words remaining in his mind - unification of the world!
China's five thousand years of history proves that only a unified dynasty can put an end to endless wars, even if it only lasts a few hundred years...

but!
This world is different!

In this world, there are immortal gods!
"Chengfeng, you'll get used to it. It's been like this for hundreds of years, with everyone fighting back and forth."

Looking at Dai Chengfeng who was standing there in a daze, Zhu Fan patted his shoulder in a relaxed manner.

"uncle……"

At this time, Dai Chengfeng looked at Zhu Fan with a serious look.

"Ok?"

"I wish to use my humble body to forge a sword that will exemplify the Human Emperor... Using the world as its blade, the mountains and seas as its tip, it will be governed by the Five Elements, activated by Yin and Yang, maintained by spring and summer, and moved by autumn and winter. Unrivaled in the world, the world will submit!"

Dai Chengfeng looked at the old woman in front of him, stroking the peach tree over and over again with a gentle smile, "I will also bring them, bring this world, a great country that stretches from the Lingdou Plain in the east to the vast ocean in the west, extends to the Far North in the north, and crosses the Canggu Mountains in the south..."

"besides!"

"Peace forever!"

Listening to Dai Chengfeng's low voice, which was not passionate but rather like a leisurely narration, Zhu Fan felt as if struck by lightning and stood there in a daze.

There was deep shock in his eyes.

In this chaotic world of soul masters.

People seem to have long been accustomed to the idea that the bigger the fist, the more truth there is. Ordinary people are also accustomed to wandering around and the uncertainty of life and death...

All most people want is to survive in this chaotic world.

however!
The young man in front of him, his nephew, the fourth prince of the Xingluo Empire, the future Xingluo Emperor, has such grand ambitions!
To carry the world, the mountains and the sea, the five elements, yin and yang, spring, summer, autumn and winter...

Forge the Sword of the Human Emperor!

Reshape this shattered universe and create a great nation stretching from the Lingdou Plain in the east to the vast ocean in the west, extending to the far north in the north, and crossing the Canggu Mountains in the south...

And what no one dares to imagine... eternal peace!
Zhu Fan's lips trembled slightly. He wanted to speak, but no sound came out for a while.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and his eyes were slightly red.

He patted Dai Chengfeng's shoulder vigorously, his voice a little hoarse from excitement, and said loudly: "You have ambition!"

"Good boy, uncle was right about you!"

"Since you have such lofty ambitions, I, your uncle, am willing to be your vanguard. I will never look back, even if it means death!"

"Thank you uncle."

Looking at Zhu Fan who supported him unconditionally, Dai Chengfeng spoke.

Although Dai Chengfeng knew very well that the path he wanted to take would be full of thorns and difficulties, after all, the various forces in the world were intertwined, and there were also the almighty gods hiding in the dark, spying on the world.

But Dai Chengfeng believed that as long as he wanted to leave...

The road is at your feet!

I, Dai Chengfeng, have been to this world!
