In the Heaven Cloud Kingdom's Capitol Hill.
Xia Mang, Liu San Xiao and Xia Yuntian and his wife were gathered there.
"Dad, mom, and Uncle Liu, that's about it."
Xia Mang said seriously: "This is the orders from the higher-ups, I have no way to disobey."
These days.
The relationship between him and Lyu had completely eased up.
Under the latter's advice, Liu Junyi unwillingly apologized to him. Although Xia Mang could tell that he was reluctant, he was too lazy to care about it.
However, this was also a real concern, because people had to face an extremely long period of time during which any element of instability could become a trigger for the safety of a group.
In order to guard against Liu Junyi, he purposely expressed his worries towards Liu San Xiao.
This way, Xia Mang could finally relax. At this point, he could only choose to believe Liu San Xiao.
After interacting with each other for a period of time, he believed that the other party's changes were real. Xia Mang was still quite confident in his ability to look at others face to face.
To his words.
Xia Yuntian and his wife's reactions were unexpected.
Although the two of them were deeply worried, they still resolutely supported the conscription order. Especially Xia Yuntian who even said, "Men should be able to support the Heavens and Earth, to be able to kill for the justice of the nation is your honor, your father will support you!"
Du Dongyan also encouraged them: "However, when you go to the battlefield, you must pay attention to your safety. These past few days, I will knit some clothes for you to make canned food overnight.
"Mom, no need. The army has these supplies."
Xia Mang was moved in his heart, but he waved his hand and rejected it, "Moreover, the conscription order is very urgent, I might have to leave tomorrow."
"So it's like that."
Du Dongyan frowned: "Then take this with you."
With that, she took off the jade Buddha that she had worn on her neck for many years and forcefully hung it on her son's head.
Xia Mang opened his eyes wide, "Mom, how can this be? This is your only jewelry, and it's been worn for many years, I can't take it, I can't take it."
"Silly child, this thing is a symbol of good fortune and peace. Although it is useless on your mother's body, it can bring you good luck if you wear it on your body."
Du Dongyan caressed her son's head, "Whenever you miss your home, look at it."
"Mm. Alright."
Xia Mang could only accept it. He suddenly felt that his nose was a little sore.
He took in a deep breath and turned to Liu San smiling: "Uncle Liu, please try your best to hide this from Xue Qing. I really don't want her to worry about me."
"Alright, I will try my best to hide it."
Liu San nodded, "I know it's like life and death for you young people to be separated. I also don't want to see my daughter go through all this, but you have to promise me that you will or will not come back. I don't want to see my daughter being married off and no one else wanting her."
"Haha, how could that be?"
Xia Mang was amused by his words, "With Xueqing's conditions, if she really wanted to marry, the person who proposed the marriage would probably be able to break the threshold of Heaven Cloud Kingdom's Capitol Hill."
"Nonsense, my bottleneck isn't the tofu project, how could it be so easily trampled by someone?"
Liu San Xiao raised his eyebrows and joked.
"Alright, then Mom, Dad, Uncle Liu, I'll be leaving first."
Xia Mang stood up, endured his excitement with his back facing his parents and said: "Dad, mom, then your son will be leaving first. While I'm gone, you guys must take care of your body, don't worry about me, we'll contact you through the identity chip at any time."
"Sigh."
Du Dongyan and Xia Yuntian replied together.
The former's nose had already turned red.
The moment Xia Mang closed the door, she could no longer control himself and fell into his husband's embrace and started crying.
"Alright, alright, stop crying. It's not like our son isn't coming back."
Xia Yuntian calmed his wife's emotions with these words, even though his own heart wasn't in much better condition.
Du Dongyan choked her sobs, "Do you think I don't know how dangerous the front lines are?"
"My two relatives, don't worry, Xia Mang is still very strong."
Liu San smiled and comforted, "I can see that his current strength has reached a level that I can't even imagine. Plus, he has super powers, so don't worry, while war might be a narrow escape for others, it's not a bad thing for him."
"Did you hear? The Family Patriarch of the Liu Family is experienced and knowledgeable. Since he said so, our son is very powerful."
Xia Yuntian said to his wife.
These words made Liu San Xiao a bit uncomfortable: "Ahem, Big Brother Xia, although we haven't held an official ceremony, but in my heart, we have already treated Xia Mang as our son-in-law. Let's just address him as our own family from now on, don't be so formal."
"Alright, alright."
Xia Yuntian was a little not used to it, but he smiled and agreed.
At the entrance of Heaven Cloud Kingdom's Capitol Hill.
Xia Mang had even met someone he didn't want to see the most.
"Are you trying to avoid me?"
Liu Xueqing looked at the boy who was at a loss of what to do, "If shadow brother had not told me you were to leave, I might still be in the dark even after you have left."
Her eyes glimmered with tears. "Do you really think that I wouldn't worry about you just because you disappeared so quietly? You idiot."
"I want to see you. As long as I can't see you, I will miss you. However, if I miss you, you won't even appear by my side. I will only worry about you!" Stupid idiot! "
Finally, sparkling droplets seeped out of the corner of Liu Xueqing's eyes. She lightly bit her lips and waved her little fist at Xia Mang's chest.
The latter, seeing this, felt an incomparable amount of pity. He raised his head to adjust his complicated emotions, and gently embraced the jade figure: "I'm sorry, I didn't consider your feelings."
Liu Xueqing snuggled up to his warm chest, and her emotions slowly calmed down as she muttered to herself. "Are you really going to the front lines?"
"Yes, this is the conscription order from the higher-ups. At the same time, it is also my responsibility."
Xia Mang pushed her away, forcefully hanging a smile on his face, and said: "You also wish that your man is a hero that can support both heaven and earth, right? In the future, I will step on the rainbow clouds and return in triumph! And then, under the cheers of the crowd, I will openly marry you as my bride! "
Liu Xueqing stammered: "I do not wish for you to be a hero, I only hope for you to be safe."
She blinked her beautiful eyes and stared at Xia Mang seriously: "Do you think I'm being too selfish?"
"No!"
Suddenly, the latter was unable to restrain her emotions and pulled her into his embrace once more. Her lips suddenly pressed against her red lips, and she immediately kissed it.
After a long while, they reluctantly parted.
Xia Mang laughed: "So this was the taste of your first kiss."
Liu Xueqing's face also flushed red, "I know I'm not good enough, I don't have the qualification to receive the conscription order like you, but I will work hard, try my best to keep up with your footsteps, stay by your aunt and uncle's side, and patiently wait for your return."
Xia Mang nodded strongly and used the back of his hand to wipe the girl's tears away. "Wait for me to come back."
"Yes."
Suddenly, Liu Xueqing took out a purple ribbon from her pocket. Gently, she picked up Xia Mang's hand, tied the ribbon around his wrist, and said gently: "Take this. In the past, every time I slept, I would always bring this along with me so that I could sleep peacefully. Now, I hope that it can represent me to accompany you by your side, to accompany you through every day without me."
"Yes."
Xia Mang snorted as if nothing had happened. He felt that he was unable to control the emotions that filled his chest and quickly said: "Then I'll be going."
"Yes, I'll wait for your return."
He did not hesitate any longer and disappeared from sight under the girl's gaze.
The leaves of the tree were blown away by the wind.
The distance between the two of them just like that had gradually expanded to the point where they were separated by heaven and earth. They did not know how long it would be in the future, nor did they know if there would be any accidents or if they would be the first to arrive … In the dark.
Lin Ying quietly looked at the situation here, the luster in his eyes incomparably complex. He suddenly muttered: "Lin Ying, Lin Ying, what exactly do you want?"
He was silent for a long time. Then, he suddenly turned around and walked into the Capitol. Xia Mang slowly walked away in disappointment.
As he walked, he looked at the purple ribbon tied around his wrist in a daze. He strongly wiped the tears at the corners of his eyes, then resolutely increased his speed and headed towards Yuecheng Group.
Before he left, he had to say goodbye to the business that raised him and Long Junxuan, his two good friends.
In the office of Yuecheng Group's CEO.
After Long Yongkang heard this, he sighed helplessly. "Xia Mang, I had originally planned to expand the company's operations with your fame, I didn't expect to meet with such a situation."
"There's no helping it, this is war. In front of war, all industries have to compromise temporarily. As an uncle, I don't have anything good to give you."
Long Yongkang handed over a gold card, "There are three million star dollar inside. Use it to purchase some equipment, which can be considered as the contribution our Yuecheng Group has made to the military."
"I can't take this."
Xia Mang immediately pushed her away.
Long Junxuan, who was standing at the side, advised: "Just take it, it can be considered as something we need to do for this war."
He, Ye Fei, Zhou Chengjun, Du Kang and the others all rushed over as soon as they received Long Yongkang's notice.
However, he did not feel that Xia Mang being recruited was anything unexpected, and Long Junxuan had long since thought that such a day would come.
"Xia Mang, no matter what, you must pay attention to your safety."
Ye Fei was silent for a long time before he finally opened his mouth.
"No problem, you guys too."
"Big brother Xia Mang, defeat this group of aliens like you did last time!"
Long Xiaoyi also clenched her little fists.
"I will, Xiao Yi."
Xia Mang grinned at her.
However, Zhou Chengjun said indifferently, "You can't die like this."
"Definitely, everyone must pay attention to safety and try to hide in an underground shelter built by the military."
Xia Mang nodded and looked towards Long Yongkang.
The latter said confidently, "Don't worry, we have built the Moon City's exclusive underground refuge base. We have also been hoarding rations for nearly two years."
"That's good."
Xia Mang was relieved, and then he said his goodbyes to them.
Following that, he bade farewell to Ma Yue, Fan Xuezeng, Bai Ke and the others one by one, and finally arrived at the little fatty Du Kang's place.
"Boss, you must return safely."
Unlike the others, Du Kang didn't seem to be worried about him. Instead, he let out a worried sigh. "I'm just afraid that I won't live to see the day my boss returns as a hero."
"Don't say such unlucky words, go find Old Long and the others and stay with them."
Xia Mang said snappily.
"Of course not, Brother Long told me before, but I can eat so much, and I'll definitely bring my parents as well. I feel like I'm just going to get food, so unqualified."
Du Kang grumbled reluctantly.
"Whap."
Xia Mang slapped his head: Are you going to go? "Do you believe that I won't open your butt right now?"
"No, no, no. Boss, I'll go. Can't I go?"
