73 -44 Freedom_2

The bus driver muttered to himself, sticking to the usual routine, pretending he hadn’t seen anything and there would be no issues.

The bus closed its doors and drove away.

No one boarded, and there was nobody waiting on the bench at the station.

At 11:40 p.m., at Mo Yuankai’s residence.

After a hasty dinner, everyone left one by one.

Mo Yuankai declined the guests’ offers to help, leaving only the silver-haired young man to help him clear the table.

Superpowers were particularly convenient at this moment, allowing them to clean up without lifting a hand.

The two sat side by side on the sofa.

Mo Yuankai pressed the remote, and a strange painting appeared on the large screen in the living room.

Gongsun Ce recognized what it was.

Every time he had a nightmare, he would see that embodiment of despair etched deep in his memory.

The one-eyed beast perched atop the seven clock towers, the Netherworld Dragon that had arrived three years earlier.

He heard his brother say, “It’s all over, Ah Ce.”

The Netherworld Dragon had died three years ago.

The Colored Glaze Dragon, which hadn’t been dealt with at that time, had also been slain today.

The tragedy known as the collapse of the kingdom, an event that had impacted their lives…

was finally concluded by the persons involved just over an hour ago.

“I don’t feel much of anything,” Gongsun Ce slowly said, “I always feel like I’m dreaming.

Half a day…

a series of battles…

no time to feel tired…

just following the situation and killing it.”

The Black Sword had also been sealed again by Yan Qi.

He shouldn’t have nightmares anymore.

The silver-haired young man blinked, unconsciously repeating, “It’s over.”

“You did well, the incident from three years ago is resolved,” Mo Yuankai patted his little brother’s shoulder, “but not everything is over.

Ah Ce, what have we always acted for from the beginning?”

“For the peace and tranquility of this city…”

He saw Mo Yuankai give him a thumbs up, just like before.

The silver-haired youth smiled, and together with his friend said, “And for the day when all superpower users can leave this prison!”

“One day, we will succeed!” Mo Yuankai encouraged. freeweɓnøvel.com

“Yes, although we often stop others from leaving, making me embarrassed to say this in front of others.”

“What can you do?

The pursuit of personal freedom can’t override the public interest.

We’re partners in justice, not villains.”

“You’re the partner in justice,” Gongsun Ce pointed at the information trafficker and then at himself, “I’m the student who assists the partner in justice.”

“Please, 230 pounds of justice partner.”

“You’re now like a seal in an aquarium, proudly sticking your belly out every day to show off ‘Look how fat I’ve gotten.'”

“Have some decency, glasses guy,” the information trafficker slumped on the sofa, “do you want me to take you home?”

“Thanks, I can go back by myself.”

After saying goodbye to his old friend, Gongsun Ce left his house.

He walked on the deserted streets, thinking about the past, the earlier conversation, the freedom they desired, and from there to the freedom Shiyu Ling desired.

Who doesn’t want freedom?

Probably only Yan Qi didn’t want it, that man would only mockingly say, everyone is bound by life, living is nothing but walking with tied hands and feet.

But the young man didn’t think this way, like his peers, he also yearned for an unbound life…

therefore, to a certain extent, he could understand that woman’s perspective.

At the moment when she merged with the giant dragon, at the moment when she received immense power, did Shiyu Ling really obtain the freedom she wanted?

Or was it…

He thought of the birds in the sky, thought of her laughing on the dove’s back.

Perhaps humans crave the sky because they envy the freedom of the birds.

But the birds envied by those on the ground might also be longing for the power of hands and feet, even with wings to soar through the air, they are still bound by invisible gravity…

It’s the same for everyone.

Whether humans or birds, all are discontent, all are not free.

He had to agree with Yan Qi’s words, but this also made him angry with himself.

“Thinking too much!”

Gongsun Ce muttered to himself.

How could he know the troubles of birds?

How could he know Shiyu Ling’s thoughts?

Those were void imaginings, speculations that couldn’t affect reality, just like the many words he usually uttered without substance, merely satisfying himself.

Even so, he couldn’t control his thoughts.

If…

At this moment, the message from his sight brought him back from his reverie.

In reality, there were no doves, no hunters, just a girl in a green top and yellow skirt looking at her phone under the streetlight.

Qin Qianbai put away her phone and waved at him: “Oh.”

“You’ve already got a poker face, no need to be stingy with words.”

“That was an unexpected exclamation, I was pretending to have a casual encounter.”

“Don’t say that.

In this city, in this world, no encounter would be as bland as yours.”

Miss Qin walked backward beside him.

It was as if she had eyes on her back, skillfully avoiding all obstacles in her way.

A bit further ahead—for her, a bit further back—was a flowerbed by the road.

How should she deal with that?

He thought she would surely avoid it, but instead, she lightly jumped up, standing on the edge of the flowerbed like walking on a balance beam.

Really impressive.

She’d be popular with the kids in the park, this fellow.

Gongsun Ce momentarily didn’t know what to say to her.

He was really exhausted, and explaining today’s events in detail would be a mental torture.

Besides, even just being friends, it would probably be rude to keep talking about other women during a conversation with a girl.
