Demon Lord 3

But he didn't choose that path. He believed everyone has their own destiny, and if he kept using his powers, there would be no hope. At my speed, if I kept running, I could cover over 100 miles a day. But after 100 miles, how would we proceed? Should we stay where we are, or keep running? If we kept running, we'd have no proof of where we were going, and the danger would be even greater. The chances of someone finding us would increase, and we'd have to hide our identities there. Would we have to live like this forever? I shook my head. This was certainly not what I wanted, but what did I want? Besides escaping, what else could be more important right now? I pondered, but no answer came to me. I continued running. If I used all my speed, I could cover the distance in minutes, but we didn't have a precise meeting point. We might never see each other again. After we ran to the place where we were assigned, I also stopped there. There was no place for me to stay, so I found a place in the jungle, but my consciousness returned to the place where we were before. A surprising scene happened. The county magistrate actually took out something that the emperor handed to him. After unfolding it, I saw that it should be an imperial edict. When the imperial edict arrived, everyone knelt down. The county magistrate said that he would take us out and send us to the palace. The emperor specifically asked to see us, but the jailer said that this could not be done because several of us had already escaped. In the end, he openly admitted that he had done it and could be escorted back to the palace. The county magistrate was furious and said angrily: "Are you sick? You ruined my good thing for your own selfish interests. Do you know what the consequences will be if these people are not taken to the palace? These people were not arrested as criminals, but were arrested by the emperor. "The Emperor has always had high hopes for them. He said he wanted to train them and then bring them back to the palace, saying they would definitely be used for important roles. Now you've gotten yourself into this mess. If you can't bring all these people back, I'll definitely hold you accountable. How will you explain this to the Emperor? Why didn't you consult with me before doing anything? Didn't you ask for my opinion? Do you think I'm easy to talk to? Or do I always act with no authority in front of you? In the end, you still managed to trick me. In this situation, do you think you can have a good ending? Do you still see any hope? You can't even see hope right now. I tell you, if you keep going like this, you won't have any hope in the future. Forget about getting promoted. You might as well be stuck in this prison forever." "I understand that staying here forever means you'll die, dying of old age." Hearing this, a chill ran down my spine. Why did I agree? Wouldn't it be better to stay there a few more hours? I regretted not consulting with you beforehand, and I didn't get a satisfactory result. I wonder what Wu Luansen is thinking. But I didn't disturb him. I decided to let him figure it out. I had no intention of going back. Even if they came looking for us, it would take some time. This was a good opportunity for us to understand the true nature of this world, especially what it meant to be at the bottom. Living in the upper class every day, we gradually lost touch with the suffering and lives of the people at the bottom. We couldn't truly understand them. Living here, we would always be outsiders, meaningless. After a day here, I heard someone looking for me. I wanted to hide farther away, but then I was stunned. If that person endured so much for us, and they really didn't find us, then our final outcome would definitely be to escape, but what about the person who took the blame for us? She lived for us completely, but we abandoned her. Thinking of this, I walked out resolutely. When those people saw me, they did not tie me up, but respectfully invited me back. When I came back, I even got on a carriage. I didn’t expect that the treatment was so good. I was also looking at the bumpy road outside. They said that they would repair this road later. If it goes on like this, what will happen to people in the future?
