[What are you afraid of? I don't have a Demon King, but I still have a Ghost Emperor. Du Juan alone is enough to intimidate Xiao Xiao, not to mention Huan Yan and the others. Just go ahead and do it, and don't let me go bankrupt.]

【promise!】

[For now, let's see how much we can get out of this carnival. ]

Although Shen Yuelan's troops were slightly inferior to other forces in terms of equipment performance, they still made a lot of extra money because they entered the enemy camp early.

Leaving aside the matter of Little Fox, a lot of rare minerals were obtained from Meng Anran alone. According to the identification of Little Fox's expert group, they all agreed that these were important materials for repairing warships and were quite valuable.

[Sister Anran, you did a great job. With these minerals, we can directly repair and transform the warships after obtaining the Silver Federation's technology, saving a lot of money. It's great.]

[Thank you for the compliment. Su Jiu and Xu Hanyue have done a good job. They have raised a lot of funds for us. I think they can also relieve a lot of pressure for you.]

[Yes, that's right. Thank you very much for your help. However, we only managed to grab these things. Apart from the strategic resources such as the domain that had been planned in advance, the other resources have been divided up by other forces.]

Just as the little fox said, although Shen Yuelan also relied on the Qin Ruishi Corps to seize a lot of things, relatively speaking, it was still a bit of a loss, at least it was inconsistent with her achievement of successfully opening the world barrier.

However, Shen Yuelan didn't care. There were many things here that she couldn't take away. Not being able to take them away meant that Shen Yuelan had to use them as funds to buy the Yuelong and hand them over to Gan Yuelong's side.

Since it wouldn't fall into her hands anyway, Shen Yuelan was too lazy to argue anymore. If Gan Xingyan was not satisfied, he would naturally fight for more for herself. Shen Yuelan thought about this very clearly.

In terms of resource allocation, although Shen Yuelan did not intend to fight for anything for herself, she was determined to ask for resources from all parties regarding the people who invaded the Northern Song Dynasty. After all, this was her main purpose of coming here.

Fortunately, the various forces do not look down upon these butchers too much, and before returning, Shen Yuelan will obtain the ownership of the Yuelong. In other words, they still have to rely on Shen Yuelan to transport them back, so they are also happy to do this favor.

Shen Yuelan had no habit of talking nonsense to the enemies who were escorted back one after another. She just shot them all away. However, even so, Shen Yuelan and others still spent a lot of time.

In the end, only the three brothers of the Li family and Song Yi were left. As for Song Yi, Shen Yuelan had no intention of doing anything to her. In fact, because she had made great contributions in this battle, Shen Yuelan even wanted to send her and her people back to their hometown.

But Song Yi rejected the proposal and only asked Shen Yuelan to help her send her people back. As for herself, she said that she wanted to stay with Li Shuntian forever, even until death.

[Is it necessary? You can go home now. We will not treat you unfairly. I will leave you enough money to live a happy life.]

[And you have a young sister who needs to be taken care of. What will happen to her if you die? Just for a man like this? Are you going to give up everything? Abandon your family?]

[Haha, how could I leave my own sister alone? I have already made arrangements. That bastard Li Shuntian finally did something a while ago and told me where our family came from and whether my relatives are still alive.]

[It took some effort, but I was able to get in touch with him. My people will take Ashu to find our aunt, the empress of that distant country. I believe she will treat Ashu well.]

[As for why I wanted to go with that man, it was because he might have let down everyone in the world, but he had never let me down. Between us, I was the only one who had trampled on his sincerity time and time again.]

[So this time, I will accompany him until the end of time. ]

Shen Yuelan was silent for a long time after hearing this. She suddenly thought of Xun Kuang who also ran for love. Love is such an illusory thing, but it makes those around Shen Yuelan throw themselves into the fire again and again until they die.

Shen Yuelan doesn't understand.

Chapter 239 I wish you peace

However, even though she didn't understand, Shen Yuelan still respected Song Yi's choice.

But before executing Li Shuntian, the culprit, Shen Yuelan still planned to meet the man who could make Song Yi obsessed and dependent on him for life and death.

She wanted to know what kind of man could make a woman so devoted to him that she was even willing to die with him. If we ignore this guy's crimes, just based on this action alone, he is definitely a role model among men.

Shen Yuelan saw the man one afternoon. He had completely lost his original high spirits and looked dejected. If there hadn't been a woman taking care of him, Shen Yuelan might not have seen him alive.

[Haha, I was originally wondering what kind of man of high moral character could make Song Yi so devoted, but now it seems that he is just so-so. He can neither face up to his sins nor repent for them, so it is useless.]

[Humph, I have never faced up to my sins? How do you think you got in here? Do you really think that Song Yi's mediocre skills alone can really sneak into the palace and open the barrier? ]

[Everything is just my acquiescence! ]

[Oh, then you are really great, but why did I hear that you had to do this because you couldn't control the situation of the war? ]

[You...it's you. You are the one who started this civil war? ]

[Oh my, you really think too highly of me. We are just new to your land. How could we have the guts to start a civil war? This is clearly your own doing.]

[If you must say that it was me who did it, then we were just a small contributor.]

[Humph, you sound nice. If you hadn't pushed the war forward and caused me to misjudge the situation, I, Li Yue, wouldn't have ended up like this. Who the hell are you? How dare you bully me like this!]

[Haha, I've been waiting for you to say this. Have you forgotten? A few years ago, you led your army to invade a surface world in the inner world? And you slaughtered millions of soldiers and civilians there?]

[The other world? Ah, I remember now. So that's it, so that's it. You guys are here for revenge. Hahahaha, in that case, I deserve it.]

[Okay, come and kill me if you want. I, Li, have never denied my sins. I have been waiting for your judgment. There is no need to ask any more questions. I, Li, have no regrets about my sins!]

[You are such a man who doesn't regret your sin. Come on, send this couple off! ]

[Wait! What does this have to do with Song Yi? All the evil was done by me, Li Shuntian, and has nothing to do with her! It has nothing to do with her! She was the one who helped you break the barriers, how could you treat her like this! You can't! ]

Li Shuntian, who had always maintained an arrogant attitude, instantly exploded when he heard that he was not the only one to be executed. He frantically begged Shen Yuelan not to kill Song Yi, and he would do anything for it.

Looking at the man kneeling on the ground begging desperately, Shen Yuelan felt mixed emotions. She probably knew why Song Yi was willing to die with this bastard. Sometimes people can become extremely evil when they are kind to a certain extent.

This is the case with Li Shuntian. He is indeed a kind person, but his kindness is swept away by public opinion and turned into a sharp blade, which is swung at innocent residents of other worlds again and again.

Shen Yuelan's previous guess was correct. Everyone here was a participant in the war. When an avalanche occurred, no snowflake was innocent.

Shen Yuelan has completely changed her mind this time. She wants everyone in this world to pay the price!

[Hmph, I have no say in this matter. It was Song Yi who insisted on staying with you. If you insist on asking her to stay with you, then go find her in person. I'll give you an hour. If you can't stop her, then you and your wife will have to die together.]

Li Shuntian, who was kneeling on the ground, kowtowed three times to Shen Yuelan upon hearing this. This was the only way he could express his gratitude to Shen Yuelan. Then he stood up and rushed to where Song Yi was.

Li Shuntian thought a lot while running. In his life, he had done countless things for countless people, but never received any reward. This was the first time that his efforts paid off.

He would not allow, would not allow the beauty in his heart to wither away.

[Wait for me, Song Yi, don't do anything stupid. If you really love me, don't do anything stupid. I want you to be alive. I want everyone I love to be alive! ]

When Li Shuntian rushed back to the prison in a rather embarrassed manner, he found a cell in the corner of the prison that looked quite warm. Unlike other cells which were dark and damp, that cell was very dry, with beds and quilts made of dry straw.

There was also a set of clean tables, chairs and benches placed neatly in the middle of the cell. On the table were braised pork, sweet and sour pork, roast duck and roast fish, as well as two large bowls of rice and a jar of fine wine, all of which were Li Shuntian's favorite foods.

In the center of the meal stood an orchid placed in a white porcelain vase. A lonely beam of sunlight passed through the prison bars, shining on the orchid and also on the hair of the beauty sleeping on the table. It was golden and looked very beautiful.

[That's great, that's great, Ah Yi didn't do anything stupid, Ah Yi is still waiting for me to come home for dinner, Ah Yi, wake up, I'm back, listen to me, Ah Yi? Ah Yi! Ah Yi!!]

Holding the already cold corpse in his arms, Li Shuntian had no idea what had happened. Song Yi had already gone ahead and left him forever.

Li Shuntian hugged Song Yi's body for a long time and wanted to cry, but his tears had already dried up. In a daze, he saw two wine bottles on the table. One was already empty. That was the one Song Yi drank. So was the remaining one left for him?

[Haha, hahaha, well, since Ah Yi insists on doing this, then I, Li Shuntian, am not a hypocritical person, so I will go with you.]

[Alas, Ah Yi prepared such a large table of food for me, she must want me to eat a full meal before I set off, so that I can die of fullness. I, Li, cannot let her down.]

Li Shuntian gently put Song Yi back to her original position, then sat opposite her and began to eat and drink voraciously. It looked like he wanted to stuff all the food on the table into his stomach.

[Delicious, delicious. Mm, this wine tastes good too. I don't know where you got it from, Ah Yi. It's a pity that I can only drink it once in my life. I have to savor it carefully.]

[By the way, Ah Yi, are you going to eat your bowl? If not, give it to me. We can’t waste food. Every grain of rice is hard-earned. There is a human life in every grain of rice. We must not let it go to waste.]

While eating, Li Shuntian kept talking and chatting with Song Yi. He didn't care whether Song Yi responded or not. He just talked and ate by himself, as if she was still alive and by his side.

After having a good meal and a good drink, Li Shuntian drank the jar of fine wine, then naturally picked up the cup of poisoned wine and drank it all without hesitation, just like drinking water or eating, without any fear.

[Ah, good wine, more delicious than the wine in this jar, but the poison in this wine is also really strong, hiss, it really hurts my liver and gallbladder, Ah Yi, why do you have to do this, why don’t you find yourself a more comfortable poison? ]

[Alas, you have to torture yourself like this. It's my fault. What does it have to do with you? ]

[Ah, it seems that my time has come, Ah Yi, don't worry, I won't look for you. It's all unhappy things for you to meet me in this life, it must be very painful. ]

[May we never meet again in the next life. May you live a happy life in the next life. All the sins are borne by me alone. All the evils are caused by me. All the punishments are for my soul. I only wish you peace.]

After Li Shuntian finished speaking, he stopped breathing, and the prison cell regained its tranquility once again. This time, the beam of sunlight shining into the room was no longer lonely, but shone on Song Yi's face that was filled with happiness, which was very comfortable.

A pair of pale blue butterflies flew in from the window at some point, and inadvertently landed on the bunch of orchids, and were reluctant to leave. Shen Yuelan heard this and remained silent for a long time. This was called "Butterflies in Love with Flowers".

Chapter 240: Killing the Chicken to Frighten the Monkey

The love story between Li Shuntian and Song Yi came to an end here. Compared with Li Shuntian, his two brothers were not treated as well.

After Shen Yuelan had a brief chat with them, she ordered her men to take them outside the Meridian Gate and behead them. If Li Shuntian's story still had a bit of tragedy in it, then these two bastards were pure war criminals and there was no room for sympathy at all.

Especially that Li Tiangan, who was still boasting in front of Shen Yuelan that he had killed a demon swordsman in the war of invading the Northern Song Dynasty. Shen Yuelan even wanted to kill him with her own hands at that time.

But Shen Yuelan still wanted to use him as an example to scare the monkeys, so she endured it. But even so, this bastard would definitely not escape death.

With the end of the [division of the spoils], Shen Yuelan and others also returned to the Yuelong from Li Yue Kingdom. They have completed the handover with Gan Xingyan, the money and goods have been settled, and they are now debugging the battleship.

Although Shen Yuelan could change the name of the ship to Yuelong after taking the battleship into her own hands, for the purpose of keeping a low profile, Shen Yuelan still planned to keep using the old name Yuelong. After all, it sounded pretty good.

The new captain of Yuelong changed from Gan Wanchuan to Su Xuan, the position of first mate was handed over to Shen Suchang by Shen Yuelan, and the original fairy crew members also became Qin Ruishi.

Although they were still a little unfamiliar with the craft, under the careful guidance of Wanchuan and others, everyone quickly became familiar with each position on the ship and was at least able to drive it.

Of course, the passengers on the warship were naturally unwilling to board a passenger ship with this level of driving, so the Qin warriors had to step up their practice and try to become familiar with the business as soon as possible.

But because of this, they cannot leave Li Yueguo for a short period of time. Shen Yuelan thought that the major forces would be dissatisfied with this, but unexpectedly, after hearing about it, the representatives were not unhappy, but seemed very happy.

Don’t they want to go back earlier?

[What are you going to do when you go back? Are you going to work overtime? I can still have fun here for two more days. Who doesn’t like traveling at public expense? ]

[I see. So what does the domain look like? Didn't you take the domain away? Why does the Li Yue Kingdom still exist? ]

[The so-called domain soil is actually a very small green crystal. It is the soul of the earth that keeps it alive. After the domain soil is separated from the earth, the area will not collapse immediately, but will gradually disappear.]

[As for the land of Li Yue State, because it has not been overdeveloped in the past, the vitality of the land is still sufficient. If it continues to be in this state, it may not be impossible to survive for another 1,800 years. ]

[But without the support of military force, they will definitely develop the land, right? ]

[Indeed, so this is the punishment you leave for them? Watching themselves go to the abyss, unable to stop it, and trying everything to only delay this process? You really have a bad taste. ]

[Humph, bad taste? This is the worst method I can think of. Since I can't kill them all, I can only boil them like frogs in warm water and make their lives more painful than death! ]

[Oh my, sister Yue Lan has a bad temper. It was someone else's fault, why should you blame yourself for it? ]

[Alas, you are not a fish, how can you know the suffering of a fish? ]

[Hehe, that's true, but I didn't see you being very happy after completing your revenge.]

Shen Yuelan, whose thoughts were exposed by Gan Xingyan, curled her lips. Indeed, even though she had completed her revenge, she did not feel the slightest bit of pleasure. Instead, she felt empty and very uncomfortable.

Shen Yuelan actually knew long ago that she would end up like this. After all, she had read novels over the years for a good while. But knowing is one thing, and experiencing it is another.

[Okay, okay, you win, so what should we do next? Just stay here? I don't know when those woodcutters in my house will be able to fully learn how to sail.]

[Hehe, Sister Lan, you are worrying too much. Your Qin Ruishi are all elite soldiers with noble bearing, intelligence and wisdom. The fairies under my command think highly of them. I think the fairies will be able to retire within half a month.]

【This is the best. 】

[Well, as for what to do in the next half month, well, how about we relax for a while? I heard that the rice products in Henei City taste good, so I guess there are some special delicacies here too.]

[If sister Ruolan doesn't give up, can you accompany me for a walk? 】

[Well, well, I'm free anyway, so I'll just go with you. By the way, Sister Xingyan is delicious, right? ]

[Well, not really. I just like to overeat when I'm in a bad mood. Anyway, people like us can't get fat no matter how much we eat, right? I saw that you were in a bad mood, so I thought of bringing you here to eat some delicious food.]

[Although everyone has different ways of relieving emotions, I think eating some desserts will always make people feel more relaxed. ]

[Thank you, Sister Xingyan. Desserts, right? Then let me try it. By the way, I have a love story here. I wonder if Sister Xingyan is interested in listening to it? ]

[Love story? It's really fresh to hear this word coming from your mouth. Well, since I have nothing to do anyway, I'll just listen to what you can come up with with this story.]

Shen Yuelan's bad mood was naturally not just because of revenge, but also because of the tragic love between Song Yi and Li Shuntian. This matter had been weighing on Shen Yuelan's heart, making it difficult for her to breathe.

She felt that she had to talk about this matter in order to relieve her mood. Since Gan Xingyan came to her, she would be her audience.

Although the Henei City, where the war was ended, was far from recovering to its pre-war state, it had regained some popularity. After losing the protection of the King of Yue, the residents of the city also faced the reality and began to become self-reliant.

So, there is no such thing as someone who cannot work. If there is, they are just the product of being spoiled. Li Shuntian, he was wronged in the end.

[Oh my, I never thought that there was such a relationship between our informant and the enemy leader. I was wondering why I haven't heard from her recently. It turns out that she has passed away a long time ago. It's really sad. I actually liked her very much.]

[Sister Xingyan, do you think it is worth it for Song Yi to do this? ]

[Alas, not everything in this world can be measured by whether it has value or not. Take your case for example, is revenge valuable? In fact, it has no value, but you still want to do it. In this case, do you understand Song Yi's choice? ]

[Ah, I think I understand. Just because I think something is meaningless doesn’t mean it’s meaningless to others, right?]

[Well, although what I want to express is not quite the same as what you understand, it is indeed not wrong. ]

[Hehe, my little sister is not very smart, so Sister Xingyan has to bear with me. ]

[Hmph, bear with it, bear with it. ]

Chapter 241: The Wanderer Returns Home

Although Li Yueguo's half-month holiday was leisurely, it was not very pleasant. The people here were not fools. They had already known the ending they were about to face through various channels.

Those who have connections have already fled with the help of their own networks, and those who are capable have long been recruited by the major forces in the other world. The only ones who remain are ordinary people who have neither ability nor connections.

These ordinary people account for more than 90% of Li Yue’s total population. After recognizing the reality, although they are actively trying to save themselves, everyone knows that it is just a drop in the bucket.
