Chapter 232 Commoner, Go Die_1

Chapter 232

"Brother Cheng sacrificed himself to kill the enemy, choosing to die rather than retreat, staying true to the belief we affirmed when we first met: loyalty to the homeland, even unto death. Today, I remain amongst the living, while Brother Cheng is a ghost in the underworld, forever separated by life and death, impossible to meet again in this lifetime."

"How can I live between heaven and earth today, and how can I meet Brother Cheng who lies beneath the Nine Springs? Compared to Brother Cheng, I had received too much, unable to garner the conscience to accept even a tiny bit more."

"Though the deed is accomplished, his life is lost. Only his righteous spirit remains in the world."

"Alas, dear brother, alas, dear brother, if you have spirit in the heavens, open your eyes and see if this Empire is as you wished."

Yang Longting stretches out his hands towards the sky, with his white hair disheveled and tears streaming down his aged face.
