Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

Chapter 80: Love, this intangible and elusive thing

The trajectory of Song Ruyi's life is very clear.

Before the age of sixteen, she was just the daughter of an herbalist.

Due to the danger of the wild, herbalists actually had a good income. Some old herbalists had figured out the movement patterns of mountain beasts, ferocious beasts, and even demons, and it was like strolling through their own vegetable garden.

But accidents still happened. In order to avoid a sudden invading ferocious beast, her father rolled down the mountain and broke his legs.

Song Ruyi had no choice but to go to the herbal shop where her father often sold goods and ask the boss to lend her some money to seek medical treatment for her father.

Because her father often said that the Jiang family's herbal shop was the most honest, she held onto this hope.

But she didn't expect that Mr. Jiang would actually agree.

To repay the debt, she went to work at the Jiang family's herbal shop.

Jiang Changshan not only did not withhold her wages, but also occasionally brought some things to her disabled father.

She was grateful to Jiang Changshan, but when it came to love, it seemed far away.

But it didn't matter, she didn't know what love was.

She decided to marry Jiang Changshan.

To be honest, this marriage was still a high climb.

Jiang Changshan was in his prime, with many industries under his name, and was a leading figure in Fengxi Town. Although he still had a son left by his deceased wife, there were still many girls who wanted to marry into the Jiang family.

And she was just the daughter of an herbalist.

Jiang Changshan was very happy, but they could not immediately get married because his son did not agree.

She understood that Jiang Changshan was a man who knew how to respect people. He respected his son's ideas, just like he respected his own ideas.

During the time they spent together before, although he was attracted to her, he had never made things difficult for her.

Song Ruyi had seen Jiang Changshan's son. The child looked decent and clever, but was a bit stubborn.

At first, he often ran to the herbal shop and even talked to her. Later, after hearing about their affair, he never came again.

The marriage was blocked, and Song Ruyi couldn't tell if she was glad or disappointed.

Maybe both!

The turning point came in an accident.

One day, she passed by a small river outside Fengxi Town and saw that child splashing in the water. She was scared and shouted for help. The passing townspeople were alarmed and rescued the child.

Since then, that child no longer opposed them.

She became Jiang Changshan's second wife and Jiang Wang's stepmother.

This marriage seemed very happy. Jiang Changshan treated her very well and even personally took care of her elderly father. Even her father's funeral was arranged by Jiang Changshan, without her having to worry about anything.

Although Jiang Wang was not close to her, he did not despise her either. Especially after he became obsessed with cultivation, he was not at home much.

After giving birth to Jiang Anan, she felt that her life might be like this, and it was good like this.

But unexpected events happened. Jiang Changshan fell seriously ill. He had been selling herbs all his life, but got a disease that could not be cured by medicine or stones. He could only drag on, enduring one day at a time.She took care of him, as if repaying all the care she had received before.

Later, Jiang Changshan said he was incurable. The family was short of money and had to leave it to her and Jiang Anan.

At that time, Song Ruyi cried and asked him what to do about Jiang Wang.

Jiang Changshan proudly said that his son was capable and didn't need him to leave anything behind, and could still live well.

Later, Jiang Changshan died.

Jiang Wang entered the Dao Academy in Fenglin City and hardly ever came back.

She thought her remaining years would be like this, guarding the medicinal herb shop, taking care of Jiang Anan, waiting for her to grow up and become an adult.

Until she met Lin Zhenglun, a young man with great manners and an excellent background.

He spoke well and was extremely capable, managing his subordinates very well.

Song Ruyi fell for him.

She fell in love with him without any doubt, feeling the heat, madness, and recklessness of love for the first time in her life.

She left everything behind and followed him.

More than that.

She left behind everything that might "interfere" with their love, including Jiang Anan.

And took away everything that would help their love, including Jiang's family business.

She married into Wangjiang City.

She married into Wangjiang City recklessly, was it for the present situation?

In the empty courtyard, on the icy ground, Song Ruyi felt her heart extinguish.

...

...

On the way back to Fenglin City, Jiang Wang learned the detailed process of the Yu Heng Peak extermination operation.

"So, who is the mysterious strong man on Yu Heng Peak? Is the ferocious beast on the mountain really related to Zhuang Ting?"

Zhao Rucheng said coldly, "I don't know the answer to the first question. The answer to the second question is obviously no, right?"

"Okay." Li Jianqiu said, "This matter ends here, don't discuss it anymore."

As an elder brother, he had to stop this topic, which was responsible for everyone present.

If any inappropriate words were spread later, the future of these people would be ruined.

Jiang Wang found it difficult to accept.

Zhuangguo was his motherland, and it was not unexpected that Zhuang Gaoxian would be his future allegiance. However, isn't San Shan City area the land of Zhuangguo? Aren't the people of San Shan City the subjects of Zhuangguo?

What kind of thing caused so many years of sacrifice in the San Shan City area? Two city lords, husband and wife, almost exhausted everything, but were forced to retreat at the last moment?

What kind of big secret is it that the victims don't even have the right to know, and the sacrificed people don't know why they sacrificed?

This matter was discussed here and fell silent.

These proud sons of the Dao Academy slowly began to feel the weight of reality.

After entering Fenglin City, everyone went their separate ways.

Zhao Rucheng even reminded Jiang Wang to keep the Yunzhong token safe before leaving.

Because Ye Qingyu had a terrifying background.

She was the daughter of Lingxiao Pavilion's master, Ye Lingxiao, and was like a pearl.

And Lingxiao Pavilion.

It is the foundation of the so-called country above the clouds.

Lingxiao Pavilion is a very mysterious sect, with its base in Yun City.At first, it was just a group of ordinary people gathering together, surviving under the protection of Lingxiao Pavilion. As time went by, it gradually grew into a kingdom.

With Yun City as its capital, the leaders of several major forces joined together to govern, adopting a joint decision-making system.

In the international situation of competing for hegemony, Yun Country always maintained neutrality, and also nurtured extremely prosperous commercial activities.

For example, the reason why Fang Zehou was able to establish his position as the head of the Fang Clan was that he opened a new trade route to Yun Country.

Returning to Lingxiao Pavilion itself.

Lingxiao Pavilion did not rule Yun Country, nor did it care about what the people of Yun Country believed in or engaged in. However, this powerful sect was the fundamental reliance for Yun Country to maintain its neutrality.

From a practical point of view, Lingxiao Pavilion could fully represent Yun Country, representing the power of a country.

In this way, the preciousness of this Yunzhong Order can be imagined.

Of course, in Zhao Rucheng's mouth, the most precious part of this Yunzhong Order was that it was taken from Ye Qingyu's arms.

"Lingxiao Pavilion's Ye Qingyu, the rumored top beauty!"
