Chapter 334: Promise

ng, his eyes falling.Wang Yiwu looked up: "Senior brother!"Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!“Are you here to pay respects Did your master allow it” Ji Zhao Nan asked consec...Mount Taishan County, Jiujing City.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Once known as the fourth county of Zhuangguo, Jiujing City, after the emergence of Yongchang County, the true fourth county...Jiujing City, is simply Jiujing City.

Jiujiang City is under the jurisdiction of Dai Shan County, governed by the county magistrate.

The reason for this is that the commander of Jiujang Xuanjia, Duan Li, who was once expected to be a divine presence, has been defeated in the Zhuang Yong battle.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Although Zhuang Ting enjoyed the utmost honor and received endless rewards, even being forced to accept a position he had declined, he was ultimately placed as the commander of the Xuanjia troops in Jiujing.

But everyone knew this was just the final glory.

Although the sunset's afterglow is beautiful, it will soon disappear.

Now that Jiu Jiang Xuan Jia's affairs have become too much for Duan Li to handle...

The reason why he is still in this position is twofold. First, Duan Li was loyal and brave for the country. Removing him hastily would demoralize the people. Second, after the Battle of Zhuangyong, the kingdom of Zhuang couldn't find a suitable replacement for Duan Li among its officials.

The meat that Zhuang Guo took from Yong Guo needs time to digest. Domestic new-generation powerhouses need time to grow. Foreign refugees who come seeking refuge also need to confirm their loyalty before they can be put to good use.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

So things just dragged on like this...

In fact, the current Nine Rivers Xuanjia is composed of five deputy generals, including Du Yexiang, each responsible for a specific area.

And the county magistrate of Daishan County would often come to Jiugang City "to inspect" things. Everyone knew that he was trying to figure out the intentions of this powerful army.

Speaking of which, Du Yexiang, who first conquered the Dragon's Gate Pass, now in the Jiujing Xuanjia, indeed possesses a reputation second only to Duan Li.

The path of cultivation for ancient warriors is perilous, with only one survivor for every thousand who embark on it. Even those who manage to survive often end up broken and cast aside, their futures extinguished.

Therefore, this method is gradually being abandoned in the present world.

But before the appearance of the opening meridian pill, it was countless people with ordinary aptitude and those who couldn't naturally open their meridians, who charged at the Dao pulse with the courage to die...

It was the extraordinary cultivation of cultivators who were honed through the impact of countless human lives that supported the power of the ancient human race.

In today's world, with more options available, choosing to pursue the path of Qi and blood circulation is undoubtedly a greater act of courage.

Du Yehu walked out, having successfully completed his walk. Of course, this earned even more admiration from the people.

The military values killing and conquering.

>

After an extremely intense national war, and having fought in the most brutal part of it.

He also successfully cleared the fog of ignorance and opened the door to his inner sanctum.

>

In terms of ability, Jiujiang Xuanjia currently stands supreme. Duan Li is already a fallen warrior, and the remaining few lieutenants are only at the Inner Palace realm.

But with the strength of an inner court official, controlling a powerful army like the Nine Rivers Xuanjia would be insufficient. Therefore, even with Duan Li's support, other generals were not convinced.

In short, the current Jianguang Xuanjia is roughly like this.

When clearing out the beasts within, they occasionally still act together. But in fact, they have already split into five factions, each doing their own thing. Only when the top decides on a new leader can they be reintegrated.

These things, Du Yecho, is unable to manage, and even too lazy to manage.

He just wanted to drink, fight, and didn't care about anything else.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Now there was only one thing more—to visit Duan Li and drink with him.

Although doctors all said that Duan Li, in his current state, couldn't drink anymore. Even when the prime minister came to visit, he strictly forbade Duan Li from drinking again—but who cares!

To put it in simple terms, I'm already a piece of trash, life is meaningless anyway. They won't even let me drink! What's the point of living then Might as well die sooner and be reborn faster!

And Du Yecho always refrained from giving advice, only choosing to drink along.

"Damn it!"

At the dinner table, Duan Li suddenly raised his hand and slapped Du Yexiao's messy hair: "I asked you to drink with me, not just to drink my alcohol! You've drunk a liter and a half out of two catties, what am I supposed to do"

Although he lost his cultivation, his punch still packs a punch.

Du Yecho glanced at him, casually brushed his hair with one hand, and gulped down another bowl.

This jerk from the Duan family, he used to always give him a thousand and one warnings to be polite and well-dressed, to be a model military officer, constantly talking about "the wind of famous generals". Now that he's useless, it's actually interesting. His true colors are showing, swearing all day long.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

That's interesting!

Old Master Du had a broad mind and didn't bother with petty matters. Besides, this wine was indeed quite good. So he let him have it.

When Duan Li saw his reaction, so calm and collected, he was fuming inside. He cursed, "I'll get you to waste all this compensation I earned, sooner or later."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"What are you talking about!" Du Yexi finally reacted, "You're not dead, so what do you mean by condolences That's called a reward!"

“Damn him! I risked my life for this!” Du Li suddenly erupted.

>

He flushed red, his eyes seemed to flush too: "Just damn him for changing this much!"

The outburst came a bit out of the blue, but it wasn't entirely unexpected.

He is a true candidate to break the shackles of mortality and has the potential to achieve godhood.

> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He was truly loyal to his country, willing to give his head and shed his blood.

But it shouldn't, be deceived...

“Alright, alright.” Du Yehǔ coaxed the child like, patted his back, and casually brushed it off with a couple of words, then said, “Wine and meat pass through the intestines, worries go away with each step. Come, drink, drink!”

“You damn only know how to drink! Good-for-nothing drunkard!” Duan Li cursed him fiercely, raising his bowl and gulping down the wine.

And he continued to curse, "My Nine Rivers Xuanjia, are they all going to be defeated by you bunch of turtles!"

Du Yecho wiped the saliva from his face, poured him another bowl of wine, and continued to flatter him: "Yes, yes, yes, it's truly hateful."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Raising his own wine cup: “Come on, Lao Duan, let's have another bowl.”

Duan Li's face was flushed red, and she glared at him fiercely for a long time.

When Du Yexiao saw that the tiger had already drunk three bowls by himself, he cursed: "I really don't know how I blinded my eyes back then, and wanted to give you Jiuguan Xuanjia!"

He even suddenly choked up a bit, "Before they called me 'Lord Duan', now they call me 'Old Duan'!"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Du Yexiao was truly helpless: "You said to me the day before yesterday when you were drinking that we should call each other brothers from now on, and you wanted me to call you 'Brother Duan.' I told you it wasn't right, so you said just call me 'Lao Duan.' You already forgot so soon"

Duan Li swiped his hand, stood up abruptly, and started pouring wine wildly: "Words spoken at the table, do they count"

“Okay, okay, it doesn't count, Grandfather, Grand-father Tiger made a mistake!”

"Du Yecho quickly pulled him back to his seat: 'I apologize for that. Come, let me toast you first.'"

He tilted his head back and drank the bowl of soup in one go.

After gulping down the last drop, he wiped his mouth and said, "I'll have three bowls to show my apology!"

Then he began to pour the wine.

“Stop it, you bastard!” Duan Li slammed his fist on the table, sending the dishes and wine flying. “Do you think I’m drunk Trying to take advantage of me and rob me You’ve had too much free booze!”

Du Yehu looked regretfully at the wine table, feeling that he had about had enough for today and it was time to go back to sleep... Wasn't life just about drinking, sleeping, and killing

>

"Well said! Then let's stop here for today. I'll come visit you again next time!"

After finishing his words, he stood up, patted his buttocks, and was about to leave. He truly came and went with such a carefree and composed manner.

I came with empty hands, and leave with a full belly.

"Stop right there!" Duan Li commanded.

Du Yecho sighed helplessly and turned around, "What's wrong again"

After the Battle of Zhuangyong Country ended, Duan Li always acted like this, getting drunk and throwing tantrums, acting like a spoiled child.

In his early years, he focused on the Jiujing Xuanjia. He never married or had children. Now that he has been deposed in a single day and his personality has changed drastically, he has no close friends to care for him.

The fallen general was of no concern to anyone, so Du Yexu could only come and visit him out of obligation.

But when it came to taking care of people, he was truly inept. He could only accompany them in drinking and satisfy his own craving for alcohol—now that he was a formal first-rank general, with a multitude of brothers under his command. All his pay was distributed among them. While he himself could afford to drink, having such good wine made him feel embarrassed.

Duan Li stood unsteadily, pointing at him and saying, "What I say when I'm drinking, I don't have to take responsibility for. But you can't. Whatever you say, you have to stand by it!"

Then Dushan Tiger scratched his head and perfunctorily said, "Yeah, yeah."

He took a few steps forward: "Come, Master Duan, let me help you to bed and rest."

“Halt! Don't come any closer!” Duan Li reeked of alcohol, “I haven't said you have to acknowledge me yet!”

Du Yexi had no choice but to stand still: "I admit everything, alright Grandmaster Duan, it's been a whole day of drinking, and the sky has turned dark. You should go to sleep."

"Bah! You're the one who should be asleep!" Duan Li spat at him. "I'm wide awake!"

If it were anyone else, no matter their status, Du Tiger would have slapped them across the face long ago. Master Du never tolerates anyone. The only exception is Duan Li...

Since he entered the Jiujing Xuanjia, he has taken good care of him in many ways.

He was a drunkard, prone to brawls and causing trouble, sleeping day and night, and on the battlefield, he frequently became bloodthirsty and disobeyed orders multiple times...

Every single one of them, the Duan Li gang suppressed them for him. They even broke protocol and promoted him to become a deputy general in the Jiuyang Xuanjia.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the kindness I have received is as heavy as a mountain.

Du Yexi sighed: "Yes, I spoke wrongly. Please forgive me. Or should I drink another cup as punishment"

This is a paragraph.

A boot responded, "Get lost!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Du Yehu cocked his head and with a smile, walked out.

He couldn't be happier to have you leave now.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"You stand there for me!" Duan Li shouted again.

"What's up, my Duan Ye!" Du Yeliang stopped helplessly.

"You said you would!" Duan Li suddenly pouted, his face flushed with alcohol, looking quite wronged: "No matter what I ask you to do, you agree!"

Once a powerful and promising general of the Jiujing Xuanjia, he is now reduced to this state. He spends his days drowning his sorrows in alcohol and acting recklessly.

It's impossible to say that Du Yecho didn't feel anything in his heart.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But there are just so many things in this world that make people unhappy, what can be done about it!

Powerless, forever powerless.

Only drinking, sleeping, and killing.

Only let the strong liquor pass through my intestines, hopefully taking it all away!

"I promise you," Du Yexi said in a low voice.

“You swear!” Duan Li stared at him intently.

Du Yexi sighed: "I swear."

"You swear falsely!"

"Fine," Du Yexiao said helplessly, "I swear on my life."

"You said it!" Duan Li seemed to be taking it personally: "If you don't do it, your whole family dies!"

“Just say it, anything goes.” Du Yehu only thought he was drunk and coaxed, “If I don’t do it, my whole family will die.”

>

Anyway, the whole family is already dead...

Then Duan Li pondered for a moment, as if deep in thought, and added, "And one more thing. If you disobey me and do what I say not to, you'll never drink again for the rest of your life!"

Du Yexiao widened his eyes: "Lao Duan! You're too ruthless, aren't you"

"Hahaha." Duan Li laughed, throwing back his head. After he stopped laughing, he repeated, "Swear!"

Today's parting, there is a kind of unusual insistence.

I don't know if it's because I drank too much or if my heart is just too wronged. I can only torment people like this.

Du Yecho sighed helplessly, "If I don't listen to you and do as you say, I won't have any wine for the rest of my life. Alright Let's just go to sleep!"

"No way!" Duan Li waved his hand: "You agreed too readily, no sincerity! I want a different oath!"

>

He stretched out his finger, circling in the air for a long time, and finally as if he had suddenly thought of something, pointed at Du Yexiao and said: "You swear, if you don't do what I say, your dead brother will not be able to be reborn!"

For the first time, Du Yehu's face fell.

“You went too far!”

The atmosphere in the room became very heavy.

But Duan Li was just drunk and stubborn, staring at him as if he absolutely had to agree.

"Whatever you want me to do, I'll do my best for you. Anything at all! I owe you everything! But saying these things is unnecessary." Du Yeliu turned and walked out. "I hope today you were just drunk!"

“What are you trying to fight for” Duan Li suddenly roared from behind him: “You don’t even value your own life! What use is your life Would I care about it”

“Then what do you want me to do” Du Yeliang turned back like a furious lion, strode several steps to Duan Li’s face, and grabbed his collar: “Are you wronged Angry You were deceived onto the battlefield to fight desperately, to be a spectacle for others, and in the end, you became a useless thing, but you dare not say anything. Do you want me to avenge you!”

He let go of Duan Li, drew his military saber from his waist with a whoosh, and strode out menacingly: "I'm going to Xin'an now!"

"Go to your mother!" Duan Li grabbed him from behind, but instead of catching him, he was pulled and fell to the ground.

The sound of ping pong.

The chair was broken, the table overturned, and the wine jars shattered...

The leftover food and wine, poured over his head, made him such a mess.

This is Duan Li, the former highest-ranking figure in the military of the Zhuang Nation, second only to Huangfu Duoming!

Tu Yexiao had already charged toward the door with a furious momentum, but at this moment, he had to stop.

He has lost all his killing intent.

He sheathed his sword and turned back, clearing the wine and food from Duan Li's head and face, then helped him up.

“I promise you,” Du Yexiao said in a deep voice. “No matter what you ask me to do, I promise you. I swear, the most venomous oath.”

He hesitated for a moment, then said: "Anyway, in this world, I have nothing left to worry about."

Duan Li looked at him, his eyes were now sober, devoid of the drunken haze. He stared straight at him and said, "Ye Hu, I have no sons. I treat you as my own. I've become the pariah I am today, hated by all, but only you are willing to follow me, appease me, and listen to me!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The general, who once on the battlefield of Zhuang Yong exhausted his last bit of spirit and blood to pursue his opponent, shook his head and said with unusual solemnity: "I don't want you to fight for me. I want you to fight for yourself!"

He growled, "Agree to me!"

Perhaps he had drunk too much, for Du Yexi now felt a dryness in his throat. He realized that Duan Li might not have been drunk at all from the start. Tonight's conversation might change everything...

But how could he refuse

His father was a butcher and died very early. This fragile man before him had, for a long time, played the role of the missing "father," always looking after him.

“I promise you,” said Du Yehu. “By the brothers who died in Fenglin City, by their peace in death, I promise you.”

This is an example of text you want translated. Here's how it looks in English: This is an example of text you want translated.

But Duan Li's first words almost made him lose his footing.

"Your brothers in Maplewood City, they are not all dead!"

"What are you saying" Du Yehu grabbed Duan Li's arms, his eyes burning with intensity. "What did you say"

This is a translation of the content inside the > tags. Please remember that I only translate the text, not the HTML tags themselves. Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Facing such eyes, Duan Li knew that if he was joking today, then his friendship with Du Yexi would be over.

"Sit down and talk." Duan Li tried to calm him down.

Duyeye Tiger let go of his hand.

Just then, his arm was almost crushed. Duan Li shook his arm, there wasn't much to say about it, and casually found a place to sit down.

Du Yehu walked cautiously and sat down on the ground, his eyes still fixed on him.

" Duan Li sighed and said, 'Someone came to find me today and told me something. Don't ask me who that person was, I promised to keep it confidential.'"

He also paid close attention to Du Yexi's expression and slowly said, "This time at the Yellow River Gathering, the participants from the inner court of Qi State in the Eastern Region are called... Jiang Wang!"

Du Yechose closed his eyes deeply.

After a long time, he opened his eyes.

"Impossible," he shook his head. "If the third brother is still alive, he couldn't possibly not contact me."

Although he was denying it, his lips were trembling slightly.

Here are a few ways to express the phrase "It is a beautiful day" in English, depending on the nuance you want to convey:* **"It's a beautiful day."** (This is the most common and straightforward way to say it.)Let me know if you have other phrases you'd like translated!

Dan Li looked at him with some pity, at this young man who looked anxious, but was actually very simple and straightforward: "If you could think about it, why I would force you to swear that oath first before telling you the news. You should know, this is true."

Duyeye Tiger didn't speak for a moment.

The fall of Fenglin City's domain was, to begin with, somewhat unclear. The sudden death of the old City Lord Liu Yi'an was also a point of suspicion.

But the entire Fenglin City was deserted, except for Dong'a. There were no other living people and no other evidence.

All Dong A could say was whatever came to mind.

Then if Jiang Wang is still alive, why hasn't he come to find him

Why run all the way to the Qi state in the Eastern Territories

The answer to this question is actually not hard to guess.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Duàn lí again said, “During last year’s national war, Dǒng was assassinated on Xīn'ān Street. The person who killed him left behind a jade pendant. It was the jade pendant that Dǒng used to wear. Nobody else knows who the jade belongs to, I think you should know.”

Yes. Du Yehu certainly knows that.

In the letters Jiang Wang sent him later, she boasted more than once about how much the dean favored her and how extraordinary her talent was. She also said that she would look after her brothers in the future.

Although he didn't have time to see with his own eyes what the jade pendant that boy was showing off looked like, it was probably the only thing connected to Dong Alian.

The alcohol in Du Yecho's blood awoke completely.

But in his heart, a fire burned.

Those wines were all poured onto those fires.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

fierce, painful...angry.

"So, the destruction of Fenglin City was a conspiracy. It involved Dong'a and the emperor. That's why my third brother ran to Qi State in the Eastern Region alone, seeking revenge. That's also why he won't contact me; he's afraid I'll act impulsively and ruin things."

"He clenched his teeth as he spoke, gritting them together with every word. While speaking, he struggled to rise,"

Duan Li pressed him hard, his voice sharp and angry: "Have you forgotten the oath you made"

Du Yecho was stunned.

The third brother is alive... The third brother is alive, to seek revenge alone.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

But the boss and the fifth one, they're both gone...

He just swore an oath on their posthumous peace.

>

He sat there, his head bowed.

A full, bristly beard probably did a good job of concealing his emotions.

His hands, rough with callouses, covered his face.

His veins stood out on the back of his hand, and his body trembled, but he didn't make a sound.

Duan Li also remained silent for a long time, then patted his shoulder and said: "Dong A once entrusted me with one thing. He said that if one day the secret of Fenglin City was exposed, he would ask me to kill you. Now, Jiang Wang appears at the Yellow River meeting, which means this secret can no longer be concealed. At least here, it cannot be concealed. With Du Ruhui's ability, he must have erased all clues. The world may not necessarily believe Jiang Wang, but I think you will believe him."

Du Yehu slowly, slowly calmed down.

But still, there was no raise.

His voice, thick with hatred, hissed from between his fingers: "What the hell is going on... those hundreds of thousands of people, my brothers... what happened to Maplewood City"

"The White Bone Path intended to use the tens of thousands of people in Fenglin City to refine the White Bone True Pill. The imperial court had long known the clues. Zhuang Gaoxian had been hiding in the deep palace recovering from his injuries, and the Zhuang nation had been lying low for many years. He needed this White Bone True Pill to recover from his injuries and break through to a higher realm. Therefore, including Du Ruhui, Huangpu Duanming, and Dong A, they tacitly allowed the tragedy to occur. That's all there is to it," Duan Li said.

Tu Yecho moved his hands away and lifted his head.

When Duan Li saw this, his eyes were bloodshot, looking crimson red.

"I'm going to kill them all." Du Yecho gritted his teeth. "Lao Duan, I must kill them. I will cut each and every one of them who participated...to pieces!"

"But you can't kill them. You can't kill anyone." Duan Li said coldly and ruthlessly.

Tu Yehu's whole body was trembling, it was the ultimate hatred: "Even if I die, I will bite down on their flesh..."

>

"Even if you die, you won't hurt them a single hair." Duan Li interrupted him.

"You have to live, Tiger. You promised me, you have to live." Duan Li said.

The once-mighty Jiāng Xuánjiǎ, the commander of the Ninth River Army, sighed as a defeated man. "The one who sent word to me, they hoped you could escape this place. But you can't."

He said, “You can’t escape Du Yehu.”

“Having escaped Jiang Wang and Zhu Wei, you won't escape from Zhuang Gao Xian. A man like him, who is ruthless and ungrateful, will not let you get away. From here to Qi State, it's too far for you to run.”

"There is only one way."

He slowly lowered his head and embraced Du Yexi, like a father embracing his son.

They were huddled together.

"There's only one way..." Duan Li said slowly.

This room, which was in turmoil today with crying and shouting, had been turned upside down. All the attendants had been driven away, leaving only the two of them to drink together.

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This stifling, agonizing, burning room of some sort of emotion.

It seems like everything finally calmed down at this moment.

After a long time…

"What a load of crap!" Du Yehu's voice suddenly rose, filled with pain.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But immediately was suppressed by Duan Li's even harsher voice: "Think of the oath you made!" the world and never left, why was there a murder of Emperor Huang back then">Above the thunder sea, Xu Wang suddenly turned his eyes.Yinyunian said, "Who is this question for"Jiang Wangdao: "For my l...
