Chapter 1965  Yu Jin: Brother, You Can be Selfish

Shan Yu arched his eyebrows at Nan Hua's words, but seeing her walking away, he could only shook shake his head. He knew very well that Nan Hua was right, but he completely had no idea.

'Forget it, I'll think about it in the future.'

…

<The other side, Yu Jin and Wu Shan's side.>

The two sworn brother and sister were eating together after they had finished with the work for the day. Well, they didn't really do much, though.

"I have told them that I'll leave tomorrow," Yu Jin said after they had finished eating and currently sitting in front of the fire. "I know." Wu Shan nodded. With their current position and also Yu Jin's plan, it was impossible for them to stay here for a long period of time. Wu Shan knew that Yu Jin also wanted to avenge the lives of so many people who died because of that b*stard schemes. He didn't even fight directly, but his order had caused a lot of casualties that couldn't be imagined. This kind of person was very hateful in Yu Jin's opinion. At the very least, she wished to kill him with her own hand. "You can stay here," Yu Jin continued calmly.

Wu Shan was stunned and frowned. "I can't just leave the army on my own, Jin Jie. My position is to help you in the army."

"I don't need your help." Yu Jin was calm. She stretched her hands together. "I'm strong enough to do things by myself. With or without you will be the same in the end. Do you want to follow me for my entire life?"

"That's what I…"

"The elders did tell you to protect me, but they never said that you have to do it for your entire life, Wu Shan," Yu Jin interrupted before Wu Shan could finish his words.

Wu Shan fell into silence.

He knew that Yu Jin was telling the truth. When they were young, he was appointed to help Yu Jin because his martial arts talent was the highest. With the training that was given to him, he was slowly but surely making his name in the Mountain Tribe and also the best person to help Yu Jin to realize her dream. That was why the elders were kind to him and wanted to let him stay by Yu Jin's side all the time.

But this was no longer the same time.

Both of them had grown up and no longer the same children as they used to be. Back then, they relied on each other to strive and made their name in the Mountain Tribe. Conquering other tribes and also practicing with each other.

But as they grew, they didn't only have to do that and Yu Jin was no longer alone. There were many commanders appointed by her from the army who could help her to do her bidding.

Wu Shan's tasks were nothing more than to accompany Yu Jin and fought by her side. The other things would be done with the people around her. But Wu Shan couldn't just leave.

He's also part of the Mountain Tribe and Wu Shan couldn't possibly make the decision to leave the army on his own just like that. It was not like him and Wu Shan didn't want to make more troubles. "Jin Jie, I…"

"I know that you want to stay with the Mountain Tribe because you're raised here. But you also want to see the wider world back then." Yu Jin smiled at Wu Shan. "To see the world outside is not only my dream but also your dream."

The two of them talked to each other about their dream when they were young.

About how Yu Jin wanted the Mountain Tribe to spread and able to step to the wider world, no longer confined in the mountains. To spread their names so that they didn't have to only stay in the mountains but also to associate with those around them.

She wanted to bring the Mountain Tribe to a higher glory.

And Wu Shan's dream was to see the wider world. He was raised in the Mountain Tribe and longed to see the world outside. But he knew his duties well and would never leave Yu Jin's side because it was his role and promise.

He promised to stay by her side.

And Yu Jin promised to bring him out to see the wider world. "You have fulfilled your promise. I don't need you to stay by my side all the time anymore." Yu Jin chuckled.

She knew her brother well.

They grew up together and she knew that if she had never said this, Wu Shan would never leave her side. She needed him to leave.

He couldn't possibly stay with her for his entire life and there might not be any other chance in the future. Because she had seen his look when he was looking at the girl and also their pleasant conversation.

He longed to see the mountains here. The mountain range was wider and bigger than the Mountain Xia.

It was a whole new adventure and world for him. She might not stay in the mountains anymore later, but Wu Shan would always want to return. So Yu Jin wished that he could make his decision about where he would stay in the future. "You know, you can be a bit more selfish, Wu Shan." Yu Jin chuckled. "You're my right hand and also my sworn brother. But more than anything, you're a person, a man, and also Wu Shan. You have your own dream and also what you want to do. Without all the burden and responsibilities on your shoulder, you also has things that you want to do."

You also have things that you want to do.

Wu Shan didn't answer and instead look at Yu Jin. The two of them were looking at each other, not answering and time passed in their silence.
