Chapter Twenty-One Past Events

  Listening to the advice of Cang Lang, Wu Yaoling's heart was slightly shaken, and her eyes became increasingly dim and deep. A drop of sorrowful tears fell silently to the ground.

  "I'll never forget!"

  Wu Yaoling clenched her fists tightly and gritted her teeth in hatred.

  "No one will let you forget!" The gray wolf said in a low voice: "A man's pain can never be forgotten! However, we can choose, choose to heal him, sew up the wound, and then abandon him, and bury him completely."

  Cang Lang's tone was low and his gaze was stern as he stared at Wu Yaoling, advising: "I don't know what you've been through or what hidden pain is in your heart. But I do know that your pain can't be real."

  Wu Yaoling heard this and suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with puzzlement as she gazed at the gray wolf. The latter saw this and smiled indifferently, saying: "Do you want to hear a story?"

  Wu Yaoling fell silent for a moment, then nodded heavily. The Wolf King reached out and pulled his arm, walking into the steps outside the assembly area and sat down shoulder to shoulder.

  Cang Lang took a deep breath, and his eyes also fell into memories. After a long silence, Wu Yaoling finally heard him speak.

  "Many years ago, there was a warrior who had a lively personality and was very active. Every day he wore a smile on his face and greeted everyone with a laugh. He got along well with his comrades because his smile was infectious and many people were fond of him. However, one day he went to carry out a combat mission. In that mission, he left behind the most regrettable and painful thing in his life."

  Listening to Cang Lang's narrative, Wu Yaoling couldn't help but turn her head around, staring intently at Cang Lang. The latter was calm and composed, gazing serenely into the distant sky, with no hint of unusual color in his eyes.

  "In that mission, the warrior's family was taken hostage by the villains. There was his gentle wife and their one-year-old lovely child, who were his most beloved and cherished loved ones."

  His family was held hostage by the villains, and as a husband and father, he had to go rescue them at all costs. Because they were his family, his haven when he was exhausted, the loved ones he cared about most. However, at that time, due to his mission, due to the duty and responsibility of a soldier, he had to abandon his wife and complete the task at all costs.

  "Because the villain in that mission had a highly corrosive toxin, which was extremely potent and would spread rapidly. If it leaked out, not only his family but also his comrades and all his fellow countrymen would die. So, during that battle, for the sake of his duty as a soldier and his mission, he chose to abandon his wife and save his comrades."

  "In the end, his wife and child were corroded by the poisonous liquid, not even leaving behind a corpse. But his comrades and brothers were intact, not one was missing." As he said this, the wolf's eyes flashed, and a deep tremble passed through the depths of his pupils.

  Later, after the task was over, he rushed back to his unit due to the country's call, without even having the opportunity to set up a tombstone for his wife and children. The gray wolf smiled wryly, turned his head to look at Wu Yaoling, and said: "Can you understand his heartache and despair?"

  Wu Yaoling heard this, her eyes flashed, and she nodded heavily. When a person loses the one they cherish most in their heart, the pain is almost desperate, making life unbearable.

  "Do you know what the difference is between him and you?" Seeing Wu Yaoling nod, Cang Lang continued to ask.

  "He... is more pitiful than me! At least, I have sent her off and hugged her for the last time." Wu Yaoling said hesitantly in a low voice.

  "Wrong! You are not more fortunate than him! He is no more pitiful than you!" As soon as Wu Yaoling heard the response, Cang Lang suddenly stood up, his eyes fiercely staring at the former and shouted: "Although he lost his wife and children, he still has comrades who fought side by side with him. Although he lost his loved ones, he still has brothers who went through life and death with him. And what about you? What do you have besides pain and regret?"

  "Wo......" Wu Yaoling was stunned, and for a moment, she couldn't refute.

  What else does he have? He lost his loved one, he lost his family, and now he is going to lose his comrades and brothers. What else can he have besides this?

  Wu Yaoling was at a loss for what to do at this time.

  "Do you still think he's more pitiful than you? Do you still believe you're luckier than him?" Looking at Wu Yaoling's bewildered expression, Cang Lang couldn't help but continue to mock: "You feel lucky because you're still clinging to your lost past. You don't feel pitiful because you cowardly or self-righteously think that what's lost is the most precious. But little do you know, you are the truly pitiful and sad one!"

  "Because you are escaping from reality, you abandoned the present. Because all of this is your cowardice! So you're pitiful! So you're suffering! So you can't choose to forget!"

  Cang Lang's tone was severe, his words like a sword, piercing deeply into Wu Yaoling's heart, causing the latter to feel a sharp pain that he couldn't accept.

  "Enough!" Wu Yaoling shouted in a hoarse voice, interrupting Cang Lang's words.

  Seeing Wu Yaoling's unbearable pain, the Ash Wolf burst out laughing: "What? Can't take it anymore? Didn't you think you were luckier than him? Didn't you think he was more pitiful than you? Why are you now even more unbearable than him? Because he is stronger than you, and you are more cowardly! Because you are just a weakling!"

  "Ah!" Wu Yaoling's face twisted in a mixture of pain and fury, letting out a loud roar as he suddenly took a big stride forward, charging into the front of the gray wolf, grabbing onto its collar with both hands.

  "You're talking nonsense! I'm not a weakling!" Wu Yaoling roared with a ferocious expression.

  Watching Wu Yaoling's appearance as if he was about to go crazy, the Wolf God remained unmoved, still with a sarcastic expression.

  "If you are not a weakling, why do you choose to escape? If you are not a weakling, why don't you dare to accept reality? If you are not a weakling, why don't you dare to face the present and become stronger?"

  Cang Lang's voice was sonorous and powerful, his tone increasingly stern and profound. Wu Yaoling heard this, her eyes fluttering involuntarily, a struggling color lingering in her pupils for a long time.

  "The weak will always be pitied!"

  Noticing Wu Yaoling's abnormality, Cang Lang silently and quietly withdrew his hands and retreated, coldly laughing.

  Suddenly, Wu Yaoling raised his head again, his eyes cold and sharp as he stared at the wolf's gaze and shouted: "I am not a weakling!"

  "Then bring out your real ability and prove it to me! I'd like to see just how badly a guy who's only good at boasting and making excuses will lose!"

  The grey wolf sneered coldly, its eyes devoid of even a hint of emotion. This pure killing intent was being displayed to the fullest at this moment.
