"What do you think...what is the relationship between me and Gumandin?"
Marshal Gu Kui asked slowly with a smile in his eyes.
Gumandin....Gukui...
What the fuck?!
"You...you and Uncle Gumandin are brothers? Did he tell you?"
Li Xiubai's eyes widened and he was speechless.
"He is my brother, but he didn't tell me your true identity! You may not know that he and I established the Dark Walker branch in the Nansha Realm.
Many years ago, I had some disputes with Gumandin, and I left Darkwalker after that! However, my stupid brother didn't know that Darkwalker was actually still under my control.
When I discovered your talent, I investigated you through the Darkwalker files!"
Marshal Gu Kui looked at Li Xiubai's astonished expression, as if he had gained some satisfaction, and his old face smiled like a rotten chrysanthemum.
"I...you...are not, then since you know my identity, you must also know my purpose, why are you still..."
Even with Li Xiubai's wisdom, he was a little confused about what the old man in front of him was thinking.
"Do you want to help Osman and his disciples?"
Marshal Gu Kui did not answer immediately, but asked instead.
Li Xiubai looked at the old man, and after thinking about it again and again, he shook his head.
"To be honest, I don't know..."
"If you don't know, then why did you leave?"
Marshal Gu Kui poured him a cup of tea and asked softly.
"Marshal, you don't know that in the past, there was only one thing in my life, and that was practicing martial arts to become stronger! But I gradually discovered that this thing that can be carried out throughout my life...can't fill my soul.
Especially in the past few days, after I recovered some things that I had abandoned in the past, I felt even more emptiness and pain in my soul!
And...I found that I can no longer use my 'reason' to cover up the fact that I am helping one country and invading another country with peace of mind!"
Li Xiubai slowly lowered his head and clasped his hands tightly together.
"Are you starting to hate killing people?"
"No! In this world, I still believe that the strong is respected! It's just... I hope to do something right!"
Li Xiubai raised his head, and there seemed to be a faint light in his eyes.
"Is it the right thing to do..."
Marshal Gu Kui held the teacup, leaned on the chair, and looked through the headquarters door to where he didn't know where to look.
for a long time...
Marshal Gu Kui put the tea cup on the table and patted Li Xiubai's shoulder gently: "I understand, then just do it according to your own ideas!
Go see a wider world, get in touch with more people and things, and do some...right things! Your future should not be limited to a certain place!"
"....Thank you, Marshal."
Li Xiubai stood up, bowed deeply to Marshal Gu Kui, and strode outside.
"The right thing to do...."
Marshal Gu Kui looked at the gradually disappearing figure with an inexplicable look on his face, as if he was also making some kind of determination for himself.
.....
Li Xiubai did not say goodbye to anyone else, and quietly left the base with Xiaopi.
He didn't have any luggage, and Guan Yu's armor was also left in Montreal.
That kid was too good at fighting and had an impulsive personality. He didn't leave a secondary armor for him. Li Xiubai even doubted whether he would be able to see him again next time he returned to the Federation.
The affairs of Golden Mouse and others were also reported to Montreal via communication.
As for why they didn't seek help from Marshal Gu Kui, in fact, both of them had their own considerations on this matter.
Li Xiubai didn't want Marshal Gu Kui's status in the federation to be in question because of this incident.
In any case, Marshal Gukui is still the leader of the militarist faction on the surface. As the leader of the faction, he wants to rescue people from the hostile faction. The consequences can be imagined.
Marshal Gu Kui, on the other hand, has more thoughts. He does not allow himself to make any mistakes in what he is going to do now. Saving people may cause some beings to keep an eye on him.
Moreover, only with Golden Mouse and others, Li Xiubai will return to the Federation again.
However, with Marshal Gu Kui, Golden Mouse and others would at least not be subjected to inhuman torture.
"Battal Commander! Battalion Commander!"
Suddenly, a call came from behind.
Li Xiubai turned around and looked around. After seeing who the person was, he couldn't help but be a little confused: "Nawei? Why did you..."
"Battal Commander, I have heard the conversation between you and the marshal!"
Warrina stopped slightly in front of Li Xiubai and said aloud.
"Well...it's not a good habit to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, Na'vi."
Li Xiubai was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.
"I didn't mean to... If you don't say this, are you really going to leave?"
"Hmm, what? You want to go with me?"
Li Xiubai shrugged and asked jokingly.
"May I?"
Unexpectedly, Warina lowered her head slightly and asked silently.
"Ahem...of course not!"
Li Xiubai didn't feel anything, he just shook his head in confusion.
Isn't there something wrong with a person who plans to graduate from a federal military academy and has a great future wandering around with him?
Warrina heard the words slightly and pursed her lips slightly, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only say: "Batalion Commander, can you have a fight with me?
I want to see how big the gap is between you and me!"
"Okay! I can even push the realm to the same level as you, and you can use those two ancient relics!"
Li Xiubai became interested instantly and said eagerly.
"Then if I win, can you promise me something?"
When Warena heard this, a light suddenly flashed in her eyes.
"Okay, what is it?"
"If I win, you won't leave, stay... and continue to teach me and Montreal!"
After saying these words, Warrina couldn't help but feel a little blushing.
Not because of anything else, but because Li Xiubai suppressed his power and allowed himself to use ancient relics, but he still made demands, which really violated the chivalry creed of the Warui family.
"What if you lose?"
Li Xiubai crossed his arms and asked with a half-smile.
"If I lose...I..."
Warena was speechless for a moment, and she couldn't think of what to do if she lost.
"If you lose, then promise me to practice hard and try to defeat me next time we meet. How about that?"
What kind of bet is this?
Warena was slightly stunned when she heard the words, and then nodded.
"Then come on!"
Li Xiubai slowly stretched out his hand and made a posture.
When Xiaopi saw that the two were about to fight, he immediately ran to the side and sat down. The flames in his eyes danced slightly, as if he was in for a good show.
"Then be careful! I will definitely not lose to you at the same level!"
A sword and shield appeared in Warena's hand, her legs stamped on the ground, and she rushed over.
