Zhuge Ming nodded; he not only knew about it, but had also personally participated in it.
Feng Tingyun remained silent for a while, and then sighed.
"Come with me."
After saying that, Feng Tingyun also flew out of the circle on his sword, and Zhuge Ming quickly followed.
Feng Tingyun calmly stepped over Lingyuan, crossed the Third Young Master's circle, and entered the outer circle.
"Um???"
Zhuge Ming was a little surprised. Judging from Feng Tingyun's appearance, could it be that they had already launched their attack?
Seemingly sensing Zhuge Ming's doubts, Feng Tingyun proudly said, "This is the result of Master and the others' efforts!"
Zhuge Ming smiled bitterly; he knew it would be like this.
As expected, they chose to set foot in this forbidden land once again.
The two fell silent, seemingly lost in thought.
Along the way, Zhuge Ming saw Quan family disciples wearing masks hurrying along everywhere, even ignoring Feng Tingyun, the head of the Quan family.
After flying for an unknown amount of time, the two arrived in front of a group of buildings.
Feng Tingyun pointed to the building below and said, "This is a stronghold of my Quan family. My master and the others' mausoleum is located here."
Zhuge Ming activated his senses and, after locating the masks, rushed down to them.
"Halt! No entry allowed!!"
Two disciples of the Quan family rushed forward, trying to stop Zhuge Ming. They appeared to be disciples guarding the mausoleum.
Zhuge Ming waved his folding fan lightly, and a galaxy of stars scattered out, gently pushing them aside as he walked straight in.
"hateful!"
The Quan family disciples steadied themselves, stood up, and were about to rush towards Zhuge Ming.
"Stop!" Feng Tingyun shouted.
"Patriarch!" The two men clasped their hands in greeting.
"You don't need to worry about that person, leave this to me."
"Yes!"
The two exchanged a glance and replied respectfully.
Feng Tingyun glanced meaningfully at Zhuge Ming, who was kneeling in front of the tomb of Wang Quanba Ye, but did not choose to step forward. Instead, he stood still and remained silent.
Inside the mausoleum, huge tombstones stand, each engraved with a name familiar to Zhuge Ming.
The tomb of Wang Quanba, the patriarch of the Wang Quan family, and his wife, Dongfang Huaizhu.
The tomb of Yang Yitan, the head of the Yang family.
The tomb of Li Zizai, the patriarch of the Li family.
……
All the masked figures were buried here.
"Ambition, a sigh, cleansing the turbidity... Brothers, I've come to see you..."
Zhuge Ming's hands trembled as he touched the tombstone, and two tears silently slid down his cheeks.
"I used to say we'd meet again, but... haha, you saw me, but I didn't see you..."
Zhuge Ming originally thought he could succeed and return to the time when he saved Ya Ya, when Wang Quan Ba Ye and the others were still around. That's why Zhuge Ming said in the letter that they would meet again.
Unexpectedly, things didn't go as planned. Not only did he fail, but he was also trapped in the ice for nearly a hundred years.
Behind them, Feng Tingyun walked up at some point, holding a yellowed envelope in his hand.
"This is what my master asked me to leave for you before he left. He said you would come here sooner or later."
This is actually why Feng Tingyun brought Zhuge Ming to the outside of the circle. If it weren't for Wang Quanba's previous instructions, Feng Tingyun would never have brought an outsider here.
Zhuge Ming paused, then slowly reached out and took the envelope.
Upon opening the envelope, a yellowed sheet of paper was neatly written at the beginning: "To my second brother, Zhuge Kongming."
"So you already figured it out..."
Zhuge Ming continued reading.
"This is a letter from my second brother, Zhuge Kongming. It has been many years since we last met. How have you been lately? Are you wondering how I guessed it?"
Haha, actually, I had my suspicions about this from the very first day my fifth brother brought you back.
Because I don't believe there could be two people in this world who are so similar, and I don't believe that someone like you could die so easily outside the circle.
Later, the incident involving the second-in-command of Tushan further confirmed my guess, because only you would be so reckless as to save that fox demon.
Although I don't know why you're unwilling to acknowledge us brothers, I know you've always been resourceful, so you must have your own plans.
I've almost finished dealing with the Dao Alliance matters. Just as you expected, my brothers and I have gained another wonderful experience in the Dao Alliance.
Dongfang Yuechu is a pretty good young man. Although I don't know what connection he has with Tushan, he's not a bad person at heart, and I feel quite at ease leaving the Dao Alliance in his care.
And if I'm not mistaken, he should be Qin Lan's child, right? Huai Zhu and I have always felt very sorry for Qin Lan. It was because I didn't arrive in time that they died tragically.
So, I guess this is a way for me to make amends to Qin Lan.
Although my son is exceptionally talented and capable, he's not someone I trust in this area. So, if you have the chance, please lend him a hand; after all, he's still your nephew.
Zhuge Ming smirked and said with a laugh, "You, Ba Ye, are still thinking about your son even on your deathbed."
"The reason I brought Yi Tan and the others back to this godforsaken place is because I don't want our memories to remain stuck on that day's crushing defeat. We have been preparing for today for decades!"
I know you're complaining about why I brought my brothers out again, but I want to say that my imperial ambitions may fail, but I will never fail twice in the same place.
I, with my royal ambitions, have no intention of dying a peaceful old age in a harem. If I must die, I will die in battle here!
I will fight on with my brothers. I want to use our lives to tell people that creatures from outside the circle are not invincible!
Maybe one day my brothers and I will die here, but we will not regret it, because the day we put on our masks together again, we will be prepared to die outside the circle!
Thank you all this time.
Zhuge Ming slowly put down the letter and asked Feng Tingyun in a hoarse voice, "Your master and the others..."
"By the time all members of the Masked Organization had perished here, we had conquered a total of 100 million square kilometers outside the circle. This is Master and his team's Breakthrough Plan..."
"A million? Hah, you guys really have found your own path..."
Zhuge Ming stood up and bowed deeply to the tombstone in front of him.
This bow was not because he was their second brother, but as a human being expressing sincere respect for them.
After a while, Zhuge Ming raised his head, and there was no longer any confusion in his eyes.
"Since you have chosen to fight abroad, then I will take care of all your worries. This is my promise to you!"
After taking one last look at his brothers, Zhuge Ming resolutely turned back. Next, he was going back to the Dao Alliance!
Just as the two were leaving the mausoleum, an aged voice suddenly rang out: "Amin, is that you?"
Chapter 147 "Reunion with an Old Friend"
Zhuge Ming followed the sound and saw a slightly aged man looking at him excitedly outside the mausoleum. (Biqushu.net)
Upon seeing the white-haired old man, Zhuge Ming immediately recognized him, because no one else would call him A-Ming.
"Ah Shi!!!! You really are here!!!" Zhuge Ming exclaimed in surprise.
The person who came was none other than Zhuge Shi, the first friend Zhuge Ming made when he first came into this world.
"It really is you!!!! Hahahaha, that's great, Master, did you see that? Amin isn't dead!! Hahaha..."
Zhuge Shi strode forward and hugged Zhuge Ming tightly. The old man smiled like a teenager.
"Hahaha, Ashi, do you know how hard I've searched for you and Master all these years? Where is Master?"
Zhuge Ming pushed Zhuge Shi aside, punched Zhuge Shi in the chest, and his smile became even brighter.
After leaving Tushan, he had been searching for his master and Zhuge Shi, but no matter what methods he used, there was no news of the master and disciple in either the human or demon realms.
Zhuge Ming once even thought that his master and Zhuge Shi might have met with misfortune. It wasn't until he met the young Tianyun Daoist when he came to the outside world with Wang Quan Baye that he guessed that they might have come to this border region.
During this trip outside the circle, Zhuge Ming also wanted to try to find them at the border. Sure enough, his guess was right, Zhuge Shi was indeed at the border.
Mentioning Tianyun Daoist, Zhuge Shi's eyes darkened, and his previous joyful expression gradually disappeared. He said in a low voice, "My master... he died in a battle..."
Although he was mentally prepared, Zhuge Ming still closed his eyes with a pained expression after hearing the news of Tianyun Daoren's death.
“Is that so…” Zhuge Ming nodded somewhat blankly.
Sometimes, when sadness accumulates to a certain point, everything becomes numb.
Watching the people around you die one by one is a pain that can drive a person insane.
Zhuge Ming felt extremely tired, a deep, visceral exhaustion. Sometimes he really wanted to commit suicide to end it all, so that he wouldn't have to watch the people around him die one after another.
But he couldn't. He couldn't let go of the entertainment industry, and he was even more worried about Tu Shan Ya Ya.
Zhuge Shi nodded painfully and continued, "Back then, you didn't return for a long time. Your master spent two whole years searching for you, but in the end, he found nothing."
Finally, disheartened, my master took me back to our sect, which was located in this border region, and we stayed there for decades.
Zhuge Ming first entered Tushan, and then was taken to the Dao Alliance, where he stayed for several years, completely missing his appointment with Zhuge Shi.
Moreover, the Dao Alliance kept Zhuge Kongming's information very tightly under wraps at the time, which explains why Tianyun Daoist couldn't find any news about Zhuge Kongming even after two whole years of searching.
It can only be said that fate plays tricks on people, and time is often the most powerful weapon.
"Sigh..." Zhuge Ming looked up at the sky and sighed deeply.
"Elder Zhuge, do you know each other?"
Feng Tingyun stepped forward from behind, first bowing to Zhuge Shi with clasped hands, then looking at the two of them with a suspicious expression.
"I've met Mrs. Quan! She's a childhood friend of mine."
Zhuge Shi returned the greeting, pointed to Zhuge Ming, and explained.
"Elder?" Zhuge Ming looked at Feng Tingyun with a puzzled expression.
