A Hard Life for Them (I)

Xia Hou left and walked over to Hulan Sea with the box filled with bone ashes. There, his countless powerful loyal subordinates were waiting for him. However, he looked so lonely, desolate and no longer had the disposition of a high-minded unique general as before.

Ye Su silently looked at Xia Hou's disappearing figure at the shore of the lake and knew that this man had lost everything— this famous general had been swinging between West-Hill Divine Palace and the Tang Empire for most of his life. He had offered all his loyalty and had given many feats in exchange for supreme glory. Today, in order to get the Tomes of Arcane, he threw away all these things that he had gotten through untold hardships and even countless grievances. However, he eventually got a handful of ashes. Afterwards, he would inevitably suffer the severe punishments of the Divine Hall and the Tang Empire. So he was bound to lose everything.
