Big Moon Ballad

Baili Celing still remembers the scene when he asked Xie Liu why he was willing to go to Xirong to be a hidden stake.

Back then, the young man who hadn't reached the weak crown looked back with a look of indifference.

"Isn't it the same everywhere? She needs someone to help her with this, so I'll go."

If she needs it, I'll go.

Baili Celing lowered his head, looking at the back of his wrinkled hands like an old man.

He could understand why Lin Shubai would choose Xie Liu to lead the hidden pile of the White Wolf Royal Court.

In terms of loyalty alone, no one in the hidden pile can match Xie Liu.

The most important thing is that he has a pure mind, and there is no deep hatred between him and the Xirong people.

Concealed piles are different from ordinary soldiers. What they need is not only courage, but also the determination to hold their breath even if the extermination enemy stands in front of them.

Capture the thief first and capture the king. All soldiers who have hatred against the Xirong people also have hatred against the White Wolf King.

If you send a hidden leader who has a deep hatred with Xirong, he will probably act irrationally because of hatred.

Therefore, Xie Liu back then was indeed the most suitable candidate to be sent to the White Wolf Royal Court.

But, when did Xie Liu start to change?
Baili Celing fell silent, and the scene of the Great Wall of Eternal Night breaking seven years ago appeared in front of his eyes.

Back then, he and Du Ziqing rushed to the scene with all their might, but they were powerless. They watched the woman's flesh and blood turn into a wall.

The White Wolf King's Court is not a place where you can come in and out as you like.

Seven years ago, Xie Liu could not come out, nor could he see the end of his general.

And then……

He and Du Ziqing passed the news of Lin Shubai's death to Xie Liu through code words, and Xie Liu broke up with them so far.

Baili Celing didn't know what Xie Liu's reaction was when he received the code word, and he didn't dare to think about it.

only……

"Old Du," Baili Celing straightened up, staring at the vast yellow sand, "little six...he probably hates us."

Du Ziqing laughed softly when he heard the words, "What's there to doubt?"

He shrugged easily, "Isn't it natural?"

Who told him and Baili Celing to be a pair of black tigers?

Ming Shuangbi did what they were supposed to do, and had followed Lin Shubai away, with nothing to hate.He and Baili Celing acted as the dark twins, but they did nothing. They failed to protect Lin Shubai and watched her die. Even now, the murderer has not been found.

Xie Liu didn't hate them, so who should he hate?

However, if it was only because of resentment towards the two of them, Xie Liu would not have refused to respond to the call.

"Little Six, he either couldn't respond because something happened, or he just didn't believe us."

Du Ziqing's eyes darkened.

"Don't believe it?" Baili Celing frowned, "What is he doubting?"

"It's not doubting our character," Du Ziqing said lightly, "it's doubting that we won't be able to succeed."

"What?" Baili Celing raised his eyebrows, "That bastard..."

"It's normal for him to be skeptical. After all, he has no reputation to lead a group of slaves to attack the White Wolf King's Court. No one can guarantee that we will succeed," Du Ziqing said quietly, "It's better for him to do it himself, and maybe even assassinate Bai Lang. Wolf King."

After all, Xie Liu's position is unattainable. Rather than responding to their call at the risk of exposing himself, it is better to continue to ambush and wait for an opportunity to kill the White Wolf King.

"Assassination?"

The muscles in the corners of Baili Celing's eyes twitched a few times, "Didn't the general not allow him to assassinate?"

When the hidden stake was buried in Xirong before, a soldier of the Black Tiger Army once suggested that since the hidden stake was to be buried in the White Wolf King's Court, it is better to find an opportunity to assassinate the White Wolf King after success, and solve the problem of Xirong in one fell swoop.

However, this proposal was firmly opposed by Lin Shubai, and she blocked her subordinate's idea in an extremely stern tone.And ordered the secret stake in the White Wolf King's court to swear that without her permission, he would never attack the White Wolf King or any King Zhai.

At that time, Baili Celing couldn't figure out why he couldn't do something that could be solved by killing one person?

Back then, only Du Ziqing could understand Lin Shubai thoroughly.

However, after so many years of ups and downs in Xirong, Baili Celing finally understood Lin Shubai's painstaking efforts.

The White Wolf King cannot be killed.

After killing a White Wolf King, a new one will be established immediately between King Zhai.

The new White Wolf King will only be more brutal than the previous White Wolf King.

The assassination can indeed cause chaos within Xirong for a short period of time, but in the final analysis, the assassination cannot completely solve the problem.

What Lin Shubai wanted was complete conquest, not temporary suppression.

There is another reason.

Baili Celing still remembered what Lin Shubai said when Xie Liu volunteered to assassinate the White Wolf King.

"Ah Liu, I do want the White Wolf King to die, but I don't want to lose you."

Once the hidden pile commits an assassination act, his own life will definitely be lost.

Assassination is actually a one-for-one deal.

A general would feel it was worth exchanging the life of a black tiger army for the life of the white wolf king.

But Lin Shubai felt it was not worth it.

Even if sacrificing one person may save many people from dying, she still feels it's not worth it.

Baili Celing still couldn't understand this point.

Even the one who can understand this point is probably the only one whom Lin Shubai loves so much.

In short, at Lin Shubai's request, Xie Liu and the others made an oath not to commit assassination.

"Little Six and the others made an oath back then, but don't forget, they made the oath with the National Teacher." Du Ziqing stared quietly at Huang Sha, "but the National Teacher is no longer here."

The hidden stumps who can enter the White Wolf King's Court undercover are all the best among them, and there are many of them with rebellious temperaments.

It was a herd of fierce horses, and the only one who could control them was Lin Shubai.

The only person who can restrain Xie Liu is Lin Shubai.

In a sense, Du Ziqing could understand Xie Liu's disobedience.

The faith between him and Baili Celing is still there, but Xie Liu's faith has collapsed.

Even though they still have the goal of avenging Lin Shubai, even if the revenge is avenged, Lin Shubai will never come back.

Doesn't this make people despair?

The young man who devoted most of his life to his belief lost his goal of struggle.

Those who are still in the hearts of Xie Liu and the others are afraid that they will either continue to live like walking dead, or they will destroy everything.

For example, they died together with the White Wolf King, a fire was ignited, and the White Wolf King's court was completely burned down.

They're going to kill everything, burn everything.

Listening to Du Ziqing's narration, Baili Celing couldn't help shivering, his hairs standing on end.

"This... this... can you persuade me?"

He originally had a fluke mentality, but now he has decided to contact Xie Liu as soon as possible at all costs, and ask Du Ziqing to stop him.

"me?"

Du Ziqing smiled wryly, "If I could see him, I would have persuaded him, but..."

Even he is not sure that he can persuade Xie Liu who has lost his faith.

"Then what should we do?" Sweat dripped from the forehead of Baili Cering, no matter whether Xie Liu and the others continued to refuse to respond to the call or chose to assassinate themselves, it would deal a major blow to their plan.

"I really don't have the ability to convince him, it's just..."

Du Ziqing suddenly muttered, "It's just..."

"Just what? Tell me quickly!" Baili Celing was in a hurry.

Du Ziqing raised his head, and a pair of eyes as bright as moonlight in the darkness appeared in front of his eyes.

"One person, maybe."
