"Hey! Why didn't you speak up earlier about such news, Wu Tian, you old ghost? These hidden sects are just too obsessed with tradition. Mentioning it earlier wouldn't have led to such a mess, though of course, Wu Tian's words might not even be true."
Upon hearing the news, the Blade Warrior was immediately stunned, people around him were stunned, and John was also dumbfounded, zoning out a bit...
If what Wu Tian said was true, then this girl couldn't be, couldn't be the Legion Commander's...
He turned to look at Hugo, then at Apophis...
Hugo kept waving his hands, shaking his head, "Legion Commander, don't look at me, I know nothing about this."
"I, I am also clueless," Apophis nearly in the same breath as Hugo.
John struggled to suppress his anger, his fierce face slightly softened, then he ordered the female medics to immediately conduct the test.
Mengdie clearly refused to accept such a test. With her bare face to the sky, she completely ignored the order, her tranquil pretty face showed no emotional fluctuation, completely disregarding John.
John's temper flared up instantly, he thought this might be a stalling tactic from Jade Clear Sect.
"Just cooperate with them, Mengdie, if not for the sake of the sect..." Wu Tian's tone was a bit weak, his voice rarely containing a hint of earnest plea. After all, these hidden sects valued such things the most, even he felt embarrassed to say this in front of everyone.
Mengdie gave Wu Tian a deep look, hesitated for a second, then strode away...
"Hmph, what an arrogant woman."
John grumbled, and after some time, the test results finally came out. The anxious crowd received the confirmed news, the DNA was indeed a complete match with Feng Yi.
What... what kind of operation is this, to be a perfect match with Feng Yi's DNA, it's too inspirational.
For a moment, John was completely baffled on the spot, lost in thoughts about life. After a good while, he finally gathered his wits, his fists clenched and unclenched repeatedly, he fiercely said to Mengdie in a cold voice, "You'd better treat this child well, otherwise I won't forgive you, nor will I let Jade Clear Sect off."
Looking at Mengdie's indifferent face, John wanted to say more, but the words on the tip of his tongue suddenly felt wrong, and in the end, he let out a deep sigh, ah well, "Let's go."
The Head Wolf and the powder keg had just run over, their feet not even steady, how could we be leaving again? The powder keg said, "Legion Commander, aren't these the people who killed the legion commander, and we're just leaving?"
"Not leaving to wait for a birthday party and candy?" If Jade Clear Sect really wanted to kill the Legion Commander, they wouldn't want Feng Yi as a father. But, what truly changed John's mind was still that child.
"But, but those people..."
"Damn it, cut the crap, let's go, go, go..." John kicked the old chief's butt, exasperatedly repeating "go" several times.
It's just that with the fight against Zana starting, there was no easy end to it, and the challenges John had to face were not only Zana but also the military tribunal of his own country. John decided to take on all of it, it was his responsibility, but before that, he had one last mission he had to complete.
John suddenly remembered a scene from the past.
Back then, he talked with Feng Yi about the old days, about starving stomachs in the resistance camp, all the brothers sharing meals, often ending the night drunkenly.
The voice surrounding Feng Yi, John always smiled, not saying much, but his face always wore genuine nostalgia for the memories.
Back then, it was Feng Yi who had entered the resistance camp alone and led everyone to victory. John especially cherished these memories, everyone laughing with high spirits. Thinking about it now, it almost felt like another lifetime.
He always remembered every word Feng Yi said, "John, if one day I die, take care of this army for me. I'll explain to the higher-ups—the general has died in battle, who knows when a person will be gone."
John had responded back then, "Legion Commander, what are you talking about? Aren't you fine now?"
"Heh, life is short and full of suffering, who can truly control their fate—you know my dream," said Feng Yi.
John shook his head, listening to Feng Yi's half-joking words; his eyes unexpectedly moistened, because he knew Feng Yi was definitely not a man who made light of death.
Feng Yi had said his dream was to travel the starry ocean, explore the unknown, claiming curiosity was human nature. But he gradually realized as he grew older, what was once insisted on would slowly drift away, like children who naturally enjoy playing games, yearning for a carefree life without enough resources to satisfy it all. Then when grown up, once you have money and social status, you lose interest in your original dreams. The tight pace of life simply doesn't allow you to spare more time to reminisce or to pursue what you yearned for in your youth.
If that day truly came, please send him to that distant starry sky he yearned for most, with his only entrustment to be fulfilled by his most trusted comrade, John.
Now, John understood, he should have realized long ago that Fengi Yi's words were his final request. So even if he had to go back to the Federation to face legal sanctions, he had to fulfill Feng Yi's last wish before that.
It's just a pity that he couldn't see Feng Yi one last time, which was also a regret in his life.
With a snap, it was as if someone patted John on the shoulder, "Big man, what are you crying for?"
