Another seven years passed.

It’s winter, and Holy City is wrapped in bluish white swirling in the howling north wind.

It was still dark, and the outside world was dark. In the spacious conference hall of the City Lord’s Mansion, only a small lamp was lit to illuminate a small area.

Xie Yunnan sat under the lamp and took a pen to annotate a document.

He’s 40 years old now, with white hair, and many wrinkles, but his body is still straight.

The door of the conference hall suddenly opened, and Xia Qing came in from outside, announced by a gust of cold wind.

Xie Yunnan looked up at Xia Qing and asked, “Is he dead?”

“Dead.” Xia Qing reported.

Xie Yunnan: “En.”

Just a few days ago, Xie Yunnan ordered Xia Qing to find someone to assassinate Liao Muye.

He once had a relationship with Liao Muye. At that time, he was just a poor boy who was suddenly pursued by a wealthy young master, and unconsciously fell under such an offensive.

But when they were together, he clearly realized that they were too far apart.

But it was the first time he liked someone and wasn’t willing to give up, trying to keep their relationship together.

It’s a pity that Liao Muye just wanted him to be obedient.

Unable to bear Liao Muye’s various actions, they finally parted ways.

At that time, Hongye City was still in danger. Although they separated, they fought side by side and got along pretty well.

He thought they would go on like this forever, but he forgot that they were different.

When they were in Hongye City, Liao Muye was the leader of a group of Hongye noble families who disapproved of his ideas. When it came to fighting against exotic beasts, they often did not work hard, and were dedicated to seeking benefits for their family instead.

When he got to Holy City, this person became even more aggressive. He formed an alliance with a certain family in Holy City to fight against him, seizing various properties but was unwilling to make an effort, and even condoned his men for their “poor” discipline.

The Liao family once killed a farmer in order to get a piece of land.

He punished one person from the Liao family, and the result was that this person completely stood on the opposite side of him.

He had been assassinated several times before, all planned by this person.

This person had Liao Muye under his sway, and made him come forward. But Xie Yunnan is very clear that Liao Muye isn’t the leader.

Liao Muye doesn’t have the brain for it!

Back then in Hongye City, Liao Muye was touted as the number one younger generation, not because of his “brilliant-ness”, but just because of his luck – he was talented and born in the Liao family.

Because Liao Muye is not the main evil, although he created trouble, Xie Yunnan never attacked Liao Muye. But in recent years Liao Muye has become more aggressive, and the Liao family has become too arrogant.

Most importantly, his life is running out.

Before he dies, if he can’t solve this person, all the efforts of his people will eventually turn into ashes.

He also wants to leave a reputation for future generations to admire. But if he is too kind to this person, who will pity the people at the bottom who were oppressed?

In the last few years of his life, he didn’t mind violence and killing, allowing his successor to walk smoothly. This way he can die with a clear conscience.

Now that Liao Muye is dead, the people behind him should come out.

This year, because of Xie Yunnan’s efforts to develop infrastructure, reclaim the fields, and provide free farming for the people of Holy City, the living standards of the ordinary people improved a lot.

Even the noble family-controlled factories have to give higher wages to recruit workers.

The common folk live a smooth and happy life, but the upper levels of Holy City exploded in a bloody storm.

“Xie Yunnan is crazy!”

“How dare oppose us!”

“He must die!”

Xie Yunnan encounters assassinations almost every day.

In the past, when he encountered an assassination, in order to implement the new laws, he did not retaliate heavily. But now…

Whoever assassinates him, he will act against that person.

Like someone said before, he’s crazy.

Provoking a dying madman will pay the price!

Xie Yunnan is now one of the strongest warriors in Holy City, but his body is overdrafted, and may fall apart at any point if he’s not careful.

The doctors thought it was a miracle that he could live so long.

After encountering an assassination again, Xie Yunnan did not want to implicate the people around him, and fled into the mountains and forests near Holy City. After desperately killing all his enemies, he fell down.

He knew he would not live long.

He felt a little regret thinking of his imminent death.

He still has a lot to do.

Fortunately, he made enough preparations that even if he dies, there will be people who will stick to his path and continue to walk forward.

Xie Yunnan closed his eyes. Before he died, he remembered those days when he lived on the edges of Hongye City during his youth.

His life was not so beautiful back then, but he was always happy and didn’t need to worry about such complicated things.

“You…don’t die.” As he was dying, a voice sounded, and then Xie Yunnan felt that he was surrounded by warmth.

Xie Yunnan never thought that he would still be alive.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a young man with messy hair, who was simply wrapped in rags, with only a clean face and unusually fair skin staring at him with joy.

This person’s eyes are clear, full of the purity Xie Yunnan has long lost, and curiosity for life.

Xie Yunnan found this person’s appearance familiar.

Opening his mouth with difficulty, he said hoarsely: “Doudou?” Why is this little fool here?

He was suspicious, and saw the little fool on the opposite side burst into tears, tears falling one by one and hitting the ground.

The little fool who couldn’t speak before spoke, with sobs between every breath: “You don’t die, you don’t die…”

Xie Yunnan chuckled lightly.

How could he not die? He will die soon.

But there’s someone who can accompany him before he dies, and even cry for him… it’s enough.

Xie Yunnan’s injuries were too severe. He didn’t have the strength to speak, and even opening his eyes was difficult.

He narrowed his eyes halfway, watching the little fool cry.

He has experienced many ups and downs in his life, and has done most things he wants to do, so he hasn’t lived it in vain. After he dies, who knows what the little fool will do.

By the way, this should be the site of exotic beasts… Why is the little fool here?

Xiaohua said that little fool was special… even so.

Don’t know if it was blood loss or serious injury, Xie Yunnan felt dizzy…

At this moment, the little fool’s face suddenly came close, and then… he kissed him.

Xie Yunnan’s chaotic mind instantly sobered up and opened his eyes at the same time.

Before he died, he was molested? By a little fool?

If this had happened before, Xie Yunnan would’ve been very angry, but now that he’s going to die… Although the IQ of the little fool is not online, he looks pretty good. It’s not too bad?

Xie Yunnan didn’t feel disgusted when the soft lips were pressed against his lips – the little fool is too simple.

However, the little fool quickly leaned over and hugged him…

Xie Yunnan: “…” His broken body, if the little fool exerts more force, he may be crushed to death.

Wait, something is wrong.

Xie Yunnan suddenly realized that he was becoming more and more sober.

He even felt warmth.

The little fool hugged him tightly, and a force entered his body, warming him from inside.

He was not unfamiliar with this feeling, as if a priest was treating him.

It’s just that a senior priest’s treatment has long been useless, and has no more effect… So the little fool is a senior priest?

How can that be!

Xie Yunnan felt dizzy and felt that his depleted physical condition had recovered a bit.

But even if the little fool is a senior priest, it is difficult for him to be rescued.

Sure enough, after a while, the heat from the little fool disappeared, and the little fool let go of him, his face pale.

That power gave him a lot of vitality, but that vitality quickly drained from his body.

As early as two years ago, the doctor told him that even if he asked the High Priest to treat him, there was no way to cure him.

Not to mention…he is now severely injured and dying.
