"You shouldn't have come to the capital."

The man on the beam jumped lightly and landed in the circle of moonlight cast from the hole in the roof, revealing his face.

It was a face that was a little dark red from being burned by the fire, with a very obvious scar on the jaw and a frown on his brow.

If the Feiyu Guards were here, they would definitely be shocked.

The person who came was actually the second-in-command of the Corpse Cremation Hall, the Six-Coin Corpse Cremation Officer, and Wei Wu's uncle-in-law - Gong Tianxing.

This is a person who is more low-key than Tu Baishou. He guards the three-acre land of the Crematorium and usually never goes out of the main door.

The only time that could be considered high-profile was when he led a team with Tu Baishou to Ludi to suppress the corpses.

After Lu Di came back, he continued to work in the crematorium. On the list of merits, he was only promoted from deputy captain to chief captain, which was insignificant.

"So many things happened in the capital that I had to come." A smile appeared on Aqina's face.

Gong Tianxing looked at Aqina with a complicated expression: "You didn't even avoid me when you met with your spies. Aren't you afraid that I would inform Shen Lian and wipe out all your carefully arranged chess pieces?"

"You won't." Aqina smiled with a firm look.

Gong Tianxing's face showed a trace of anger, and he said, "Aqina, you have to understand that I am a captain of the Feiyu Guard of Dali. A thousand lives depend on a single thread, and you are too confident."

"This isn't confidence, but belief." Aqina smiled and shook his head, then opened his hands and said loudly, "It's been twenty years since we last met in Gaoli. Today, we finally meet again, my Anda (brother)."

"That's in the past. Now you and I serve our respective masters. Let's not call each other 'Anda' anymore." Gong Tianxing gritted his teeth.

Aqina's smile slowly faded. After a pause, he looked up at the full moon in the sky and said slowly, "Look at this moon. It's so round. Do you remember that year?"

"It was also under this full moon that you, me, Shen Lian, and Tu Baishou went to explore the Japanese pirate camp at night and were unfortunately surrounded. The torches raised by the Japanese soldiers were like dancing stars."

"We fought desperately, killing hundreds of Japanese pirates and beheading two generals, leaving us covered in blood."

"At the end of the battle, the three of us were severely injured and had no hope of escaping. Only you rushed out with the intelligence."

"We all thought it was over, but you came back with a bunch of thunderbolts strapped to your body."

"The Japanese pirates were terrified by the sparking thunder cannons and retreated. We then rushed to the water's edge and jumped into the water to escape."

"Because you were a step too late to discard the Thunderbolt Cannon, your body was pierced by shrapnel in six places, causing you to bleed profusely from all seven orifices. By the time you were rescued, you had bled dry."

"But you survived the disaster. Since then, the four of us have become Anda. We have fought against the Japanese pirates in the east, the Rong people in the west, and the white-haired people in the north. We are as fearless as newborn calves. When awake, we can draw our swords and lie drunkenly on the laps of beautiful women. We have traveled through wind and snow, traversing the entire northern region of the East."

"Those were truly memorable years." Aqina's face was filled with memories and longings, and even his aura was much softer.

"The past is the past." A hint of tenderness flashed in Gong Tianxing's eyes, but it disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. He said coldly: "Since you have chosen to betray Feiyuwei, then we are enemies."

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Aqina smiled and said, "It's been twenty years since we last met. We've both aged a lot. I heard you've never gotten married?"

"Aren't you single too?" Gong Tianxing looked at him.

"People in our line of work aren't afraid of death, but they are afraid of starting a family." Aqina laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "But you're different. The Corpse Cremation Hall doesn't need to leave the Feiyu Guard, nor do you have to do dirty work. Tu Baishou is married, though. He's luckier than Shen Lian."

"You don't need to ask too much about me." Gong Tianxing raised his hand to stop him, staring at Aqina and saying, "Just tell me what you want from me. Let me remind you again, I am Feiyuwei, your enemy."

The smile on Aqina's face slowly faded again. He looked at Gong Tianxing and said seriously, "I came to say goodbye to you."

"Goodbye?"

Gong Tianxing showed a hint of doubt on his face and asked, "Are you leaving the capital?"

However, just as he finished speaking, Gong Tianxing's face changed drastically, and he asked in surprise: "No, are you taking any action?"

Aqina smiled but said nothing, "It's a secret, I can't tell you."

Gong Tianxing said in a hurried tone: "If you stay in the capital, you will be in danger of death. The Great Immortal Qingniu is unfathomable. You are crazy."
