Travels to the Holy Light Continent

Chapter 213 Preparing to travel

Time flies, and the holy war has unknowingly begun for a month. At the beginning, the battlefield was one-sided, and the coalition forces won victory after victory. Countless gold, silver, treasures and slaves were transported to the Holy Light Continent.

As the spoils of war were shipped to their countries one after another, families from all countries requested to increase their military strength. In their view, this was a very profitable business! Even a weak figure like the eldest prince of Chu returned with a full load. Don’t you think it’s enviable?

My mother also wrote to me to complain that I shouldn't have given up my qualifications for the holy war directly, and that maybe I could have gained more that way. I shook my head after reading the letter. No wonder the Vatican's deceptive tactics have remained basically the same for a thousand years and yet they have succeeded every time, because most people cannot see clearly when it comes to interests, and sometimes they even forget about human nature, so having a reason to appease them is enough.

The oppressed people of Xiaorizi began to resist at this time. They prayed to their "gods" for help, and these gods seemed to really help them. For a while, Xiaorizi was either experiencing volcanic eruptions or tsunamis attacking ships, and both the coalition forces and the people of Xiaorizi suffered losses.

Now, those who wanted to take advantage of the situation hoped that their country would send more powerful troops to participate in the holy war. My grandfather was forced to write me a letter hinting that the other six major families wanted me to send troops to take charge of the situation. I directly replied that I was not interested.

Now that I know it's hard to make money, why didn't I do it before? You want me to be a stepping stone? It's a pipe dream!

After reading the letter, I was so annoyed that I really wanted to go out for a walk. But after walking a few steps, I saw Milia crying secretly by herself.

"Milia! Why are you crying? Who bullied you?"

"No one bullied my brother Xuanyuan. I just missed my father! Do you think I can never go back?"

"The Vatican has written to me saying that Jordan is indeed dead and asked us to keep a close eye on your movements and report any intelligence we have immediately! At least in the short term, there is no hope for you to see your father!"

"Woo woo! Brother Xuanyuan, I want to go say goodbye to my father and let him know I'm safe, okay? I will listen to you this time, okay?"

"this..."

"Please! I just want to see my father, okay?"??o·(? ??????????? )?o·?

"Okay! Anyway, I can't stay here any longer, so I might as well turn a blind eye to it! When His Majesty and the others come to urge me, I won't be able to find anyone and they won't be able to do anything!"

"Husband! Do you want to abandon me again?"

I turned around when I heard that, and saw Anna and Hanxiang looking at me with resentment on their faces.

"Haha! How can that be possible! I just want to go out and hide. No, I want to go out and relax. Hanxiang, Anna, do you want to come with me? Let's go to Yan State while we're at it!"

"Yan State? What are you going there for, husband?" Hanxiang asked.

"What else can he do? He's probably going to meet his old lover," Anna said jealously.

My face turned red when I heard that. I felt like I was caught cheating by my wife. I quickly argued, no, explained, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm here to cure Miss Shangguan's illness! I'm the only one in the world who can cure her disease. She's still so young. Can you bear to watch her die?"

"Really? Then let's go and take a look! I miss my father too!" Hanxiang said.

"Okay! It's decided then. We'll go see Hanxiang's father first, then go to the Imperial Capital of Yan State, and finally to the Holy Capital! Get ready, we'll set off at noon!"

"Oh! Great! We can go play now!" Millia said happily.
