Chapter 27: The End of Family Teachings

  Lu felt himself slowing down his breathing, waiting for Bai Lan's next words.

  "Alright." Bai Lan was smiling, but it made Lu a bit tense. "I can let him go."

  Lü Song let out a breath of relief, but Bai Lan's next words made his pupils shrink. "Unless you die."

  "You're crazy! Absolutely not!" Akane took a step forward.

  Lv didn't say a word, he just stared tightly at Bai Lan's expression on his face, trying to see if he was serious or not.

  But Bai Lan's face only had a smile as usual, and his true thoughts couldn't be seen. Lv thought for a moment, he was originally supposed to leave this world anyway, it was just a matter of time. Moreover, looking at Ah Gang's current state, he should also be able to take care of himself, with enough ability to manage the Peng Ge Lie family well. So if he did as Bai Lan said, Ah Gang could also survive, and his mission would be considered complete. Thinking this way, Lv smiled slightly.

  Although he was also reluctant to part with Reborn, Tsuna, and everyone else, he had already spent enough time in this world. There's always a time to leave anyway.

  However, he didn't notice that Bai Lan, who originally looked calm and serene, had already become a bit flustered when she saw him smile. She still maintained her composure and said.

  "I can spare Zedong's life, but he'll have to stay here as a guest forever. How about that?"

  Lü's hand had unknowingly grasped a small knife. Ah Gang, standing behind him, didn't notice, but Bai Lan saw it clearly. He changed color and said, "What are you doing?"

  Her face still wore a smile. "Hey, Bailan, I know you're good to me and that you just want me to stay. I believe you never thought of letting me die. But please forgive me, I just wanted to do my part."

  "Promise me, let Ah Kuan go."

  As he spoke, his hand exerted force and stabbed a small knife into his heart.

  Bai Lan's eyes suddenly widened, unable to react in any way.

  But Ah Gou, who was standing behind Ritsu, sensed that something was off and quickly moved to his front. Ritsu didn't feel any pain because he heard the mechanical sound of the system. It's been a long time since I've heard this sound.

  "The player's body is about to die. Mission accomplished, the player receives a system reward: Healing Art. Random transmission into the next world is about to start."

  Everything went black before his eyes, and he knew he had left that body behind.

  A'gan held the already cold body in her arms, her face expressionless and wooden.

  He waited for ten years, and many times he felt it was too long, but still chose to wait. But today, ten years later, he hasn't had a chance to let Lu see how strong he has become over the years, nor has he had a chance to tell him his true feelings.

  There were still so many words that didn't have time to be spoken.

  Why is it always so powerless.

  Why can only watch him die with eyes open.

  He felt that the body in his arms had long since lost its temperature, but he couldn't bear to let go. Don't let go. Never let go again.

  His eyes were bright red, yet he looked eerily calm. He picked up the law and walked out, not even looking at the pale and soulless White Orchid.

  A person rushed out of the white magic circle outside the door, it was Leo.

  Lei Ou didn't ask out loud, he could guess it himself. He transformed back into his true form.

  Because I've already lost the reason for disguise.

  Because no order was given, even with hundreds and thousands of white magic spells and black magic spells, none of them intercepted them.

  Ah-wan carried Rù across the field of lavender, bright red blood dripping onto the pale purple petals, making the originally bright and elegant love flower seem to bleed tears, filled with sorrow.

  Ah-wan thought, he didn't regret having waited. Because after all, it made him wait for a whole decade.

  Even if he now knows the outcome ten years later, he still won't go back ten years ago and tell himself not to wait.

  It's because of waiting that we can hold onto hope. It's because of waiting that we can see him again.

  He brought the ashes back to Ping Sheng and buried them in his birthplace.

  Akan leaves everything to Gokurakuji and Yamamoto while he stays with Ritsu in his hometown.

  Revenge is unnecessary. He only needs one glance to know that the person who holds the world in his hands is just like him. Even if he has so much, he can't get what he treasures most.

  In that case, he doesn't need to do anything, and in the long time afterwards, he will also be bound by memories, just like now.

  Ah Nuo thought back to when he was little, because of his poor grades, he would often be laughed at by his classmates.

  At that time, Lü was a little kid who was even shorter than himself, but he could stand in front of him with his arms open and retort those people.

  Actually, no need for too many words.

  Even if he doesn't say anything, it's enough to make himself feel warm.

  The little child's big eyes curved into a crescent moon smile, and his voice was not loud but carried a convincing power.

  "Brother, I will protect you."

  Even if you're no longer here, I won't forget every single detail about you.

  Day after day, year after year, the years are like flowing water. I still remember hand in hand, the stream flowing in front of the door, and the swing hanging under the tree.
