She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement-Chapter 1745 - Side Story 2: Prime Master Yin Mingjue Pursues His Wife (14)

1745 Side Story 2: Prime Master Yin Mingjue Pursues His Wife (14)
Mr. Dong continued, “Almost no one in our group became a Beast Tamer. At that time, the situation on the continent was unstable. Many people lost their jobs, and my parents lost their jobs. When I was 17 years old, I joined the army to protect my country.”

Enlisting in the army and protecting the country had become the only way out for many young people.

“Later, the Phoenix Great Dao defeated the Bewitching Great Dao and sacrificed itself to guard the three thousand worlds. Only then did the Holy Spirit Continent stabilize. There were fewer wars in the country, and they no longer had use for soldiers like us, so we retired from the army one after another. A large number of retired soldiers entered society, but there were only so many jobs. Many retired soldiers could only stay at home.”

For a long time after he retired from the army, Mr. Dong couldn’t find a job. He could only do the toughest manual work and receive the lowest salary. A look of sorrow appeared in Mr. Dong’s eyes as he said, “Unfortunately, at that time, my father had cancer and could only ask a Healer for treatment to survive. At that time, I was poor, so where could I get money to treat him? During that period of time, I distributed job search information everywhere. I even thought of becoming a mercenary.”

“But I was lucky enough to be chosen by Mr. Xu to become Young Master’s personal bodyguard.” Mr. Xu wasn’t a benevolent person, and he was unwilling to do a losing business. He was willing to help Mr. Dong overcome his difficulties, but he also had a request for Mr. Dong—

He wanted Mr. Dong and Xu Qingtian to sign a contract.

After signing that contract, Mr. Dong would be tied to Xu Qingtian for the rest of his life. No matter when, where, or what, Mr. Dong had to protect Xu Qingtian.

Even if he died, Mr. Dong had to die in front of Xu Qingtian.

Mr. Dong could understand Mr. Xu’s actions. After all, Mr. Xu wasn’t a philanthropist, so he had no obligation to help Mr. Dong treat his father.

This was a fair deal.

Mr. Dong signed the contract.
He had always been grateful for Mr. Xu’s help. Even if there were conditions for his help, his family had been saved as a result.

That was enough.

One couldn’t be ungrateful.

Since Mr. Dong had promised Mr. Xu that he would protect the Eldest Young Master for the rest of his life, he had to do it.

He wasn’t a Beast Tamer or a big shot. He couldn’t sacrifice himself to guard the three thousand worlds like the Phoenix Great Dao either. He only needed to protect the Eldest Young Master dutifully.

Moreover, after so many years of being together, Mr. Dong, who had never been married and had no children, also treated Xu Qingtian as his child. He and Xu Qingtian weren’t family, but they were like family.

Yu Huang stared into Mr. Dong’s eyes and saw his past through the Eternal Eye.

She was shocked.

The person in front of him looked unfamiliar, but his soul and personality were as noble as ever.

Father.

Yu Huang secretly called out inside.

Yu Huang had quite a few ‘fathers’ in her life.

Her adoptive father, who lived on Earth, taught Yu Huang the power of knowledge.

Yu Rufeng, who clung to Yu Huang like gangrene and relied on her to obtain wealth and glory, taught Yu Huang that greedy people would definitely suffer the consequences of their actions.

As for Yu Donghai, who was born a servant but was loyal to his master and dared to save her at the risk of his own life, he taught Yu Huang what loyalty and protection was. In order to save the commoners, Yin Mingjue, who sacrificed himself to protect everyone, taught Yu Huang what selflessness was.

Yu Huang originally thought that Yin Donghai had disappeared from the world long ago, so she was extremely relieved to see Yu Donghai’s reincarnation.

She thought this was perhaps an easter egg given to her by the Creator.

She liked this easter egg very much.

Mr. Dong and Xu Qingtian asked Yu Huang a few more questions, and Yu Huang answered them all. The three of them chatted until they arrived at the end stop. Then, Mr. Dong and Xu Qingtian stood up and bade farewell to Yu Huang.

After watching Yu Huang alight from the maglev train, Mr. Dong turned around and said to Xu Qingtian, “Eldest Young Master, does she fancy your potential and want to make you join the Yin Clan?” Mr. Dong didn’t think that a mediocre person like him was worth chatting to for so long.

He thought that Yu Huang wanted to befriend Xu Qingtian.

Xu Qingtian felt that Yu Huang’s attitude towards Mr. Dong was very intriguing, so he narrowed his eyes and shook his head as he said, “I keep feeling that she seems to be very familiar with us.” This familiar feeling was as if they knew each other to begin with.

Xu Qingtian thought of Jing Rujiu again.

For no reason, he firmly believed that Jing Rujiu was his wife.

But he was only 15 years old this year.

If Jing Rujiu was really his wife, it must have happened in his previous life. In that case, this mysterious woman called Yu Huang might have a lot to do with him in his previous life.

Xu Qingtian was determined to find out the truth and unravel his relationship with them.

“Let’s go to the Central Pagoda, Mr. Dong.”

“Okay.”

* *

The former Central Pagoda had collapsed in the God Slaying War long ago.

The Caro Clan sensed a business opportunity and contracted the development rights of the far north for two hundred years in one go. They turned the far north into a 5A-rank tourist area and built a mini version of the Central Pagoda.

After Duan Fen became the new Divine Master of the Holy Spirit Continent, the Central Pagoda of the Holy Spirit Continent returned.

However, with the agreement around, the Beast Tamer Alliance couldn’t violate the agreement and take back the development rights of the far north. Therefore, the far north was still the Caro family’s tourist industry.

The Caro family had earned a lot all these years.

The Caro Clan might not be the most powerful clan in the cultivation world, but they must be the clan with the largest accumulation of wealth.

The Caro Clan had built an open-air observation platform outside the Central Pagoda, so tourists could tour the Central Pagoda 360 degrees around the observation platform.

Xu Qingtian walked with the tourist group. As they stood on the observation platform and looked up at the towering tower in front of them, they couldn’t see the end of the tower, but they had the feeling that humans were as small as ants.
