Hearing Li Yi's question, Betina smiled and then said to Li Yi calmly: "Li Yi, you were right just now. Grandpa San is the elder of our sisters, but he is only our elder, not the elder of the entire Yanlong Legion soldiers. We are going out now just to meet the elders who have been separated for many years. I don't want to act on our will to bring a catastrophe to the Yanlong Legion because of our will." After that, Betina and Elena rode a war horse and ran out of the city.
Seeing that Betina had made up her mind, Li Yi knew that it would be futile to persuade her. And at this moment, Li Yi also agreed with Betina's approach. If only Betina and Elena went out of the city to meet each other, even if the other party was ill-behaved, at least it would not cause much trouble to the Flame Dragon Legion.
But Li Yi was still a little worried. If it were only Betina, Li Yi would naturally not worry about Betina's safety. But after all, Betina and Elena went out of the city together this time. If something really happened, Betina wanted to protect herself while protecting herself, she might be a little overwhelmed. So Li Yi followed Betina and the others out of the city of Stream City immediately. Li Yi did not ride a horse. With his feet alone, he caught up with Betina who was riding a horse and slowly heading towards the Pas Legion camp.
Feeling someone following behind him, Betina looked back and saw that Li Yi's iconic hair and a dazzling scar on her left eye. For some reason, her originally nervous heart was finally relieved after seeing Li Yi's smile.
"Li Yi, why did you come out with me?" Although he knew that Li Yi came out because he was worried about the safety of himself and his sister, Betina still asked in an unaware manner.
However, Li Yi did not directly express his purpose, but just waved his hand casually and said lightly: "It's too boring in the city, so it's good to come out to relax."
Seeing Li Yi like this, Betina and Elena both cast a grateful look at Li Yi at the same time. However, through the past few days of getting along, they also learned about Li Yi's character, so they did not say anything to thank him. Since Li Yi came out with them, Betina and Elena simply got off the horse and walked slowly towards the Pas Legion like a stroll along the garden.
At this time, the veteran in the Pass Legion who stood at the forefront of the army without saying a word, after seeing the few people walking out of the city of Xicheng, could not help but show a complicated look on his face, which was as firm as iron. Some were excited and doubtful, but more unbelievable.
Because as the old prince in the Sai Empire back then, Prince Jeff loved Betina and Elena very much. Although he had not met these two little granddaughters for more than ten years, because Betina had the ability to keep her face, Prince Jeff recognized her at a glance. As for Elena beside her, Prince Jeff also vaguely saw Elena's shadow back then.
So after confirming the identities of the two, even the old man who had experienced all kinds of things in the world and had already looked at death, could not help but feel restless.
Unconsciously getting off the war horse and facing the direction of Betina and the other two, the old prince walked towards them calmly.
Seeing his general's abnormal behavior at this time, the officer in the Pass legion couldn't help but shout to Prince Jeff loudly: "General, general, the identity of the people ahead is unknown, so don't take risks with your own life."
Hearing the worried words of his subordinates, a strange look appeared on the old prince's face, but in the end the old prince didn't even look back. He just made a reassuring gesture with his subordinates behind him, and Prince Jeff walked towards Betina and the other two without hesitation.
This is not too long, but in the eyes of the Betina sisters and brother-in-law, it seems like a thousand miles. After each got together with excitement, the three people who were originally talking were silent all the same.
However, although they did not speak, they could see their feelings for each other from their eyes. This strong family affection cannot be disguised.
Seeing this situation, Li Yi was also tactful and did not get too close to these three people. Li Yi knew that at this moment, it was better for them to vent their emotions silently.
After a long silence, Prince Jeff pursed his lips and his hair was dry before his lips were dry. Then he opened his mouth and said to Betina in a hoarse voice: "Child."
It was just these two simple words that Prince Jeff seemed extremely difficult when he said it, and the Betina sisters were also extremely excited when he listened.
Now the Betina sisters didn't guess what the old prince in front of them was thinking about them. In the eyes of the two sisters, now is the moment to reunite with their relatives, and everything else is irrelevant.
After staring at Prince Jeff with red eyes for a long time, Elena finally pounced on the old prince's arms and burst into tears. Although Bettina was a little calm, her mood was fluctuating violently at this time.
Holding Elena in his arms, looking at Betina in front of him, Prince Jeff finally said in a deep voice: "Child, you have suffered."
When the old prince sighed again, the two sisters seemed to hear nothing. Elena was still crying in Prince Jeff's arms, and two lines of clear tears flowed out of Betina's eyes.
"Oh, you have suffered over the years. We were all blamed for the past. We were not greedy and insisted on provoking the powerful existence of the Tianlan Empire. As a result, it caused the trouble of destroying the country, making you displaced and wandering outside for many years." After a long silence, the old prince said with emotion.
Hearing Prince Jeff's words, Elena finally stopped crying, broke free from Prince Jeff's arms, and said with a sob: "Three Grandpa, don't say that. My father wanted to take our Sai Empire to the next level. He was kind-hearted, and we don't blame him."
"Well, well, it's best for you to think like this. Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. In the war, we were not prepared enough, which led to the difficulty of destroying the country. Alas, forget it, it would be better not to mention the matter back then, but if you talk too much, it will only increase your sadness. Elena, how could you and your sister be in the city of Xicheng? Do you know the Lord of Xicheng?" No longer obsessed with the things back then, Prince Jeff turned the topic to Xicheng.
Hearing Prince Jeff's words, Elena and Betina both showed a strange look on their faces. After hesitating for a while, Betina took the initiative to say to Prince Jeff: "Three Grandpa, this Stream City is ours. The Flame Dragon Legion is the foundation that the eldest brother Ewen and younger sister Elena have worked hard to build over the years."
When Prince Jeff heard Betina's words, he was stunned on the spot. Just now, Prince Jeff only showed an expression of excitement and relief, but at this moment, his face was shocked.
After losing his mind for a long time, Prince Jeff asked carefully in a confirmation tone: "You mean, the masters of the Flame Dragon Legion are you? Alvin Betina, Barack Betina? Your father secretly sent you out. With that little money and hundreds of people, you have created this foundation in these years?"
Seeing Prince Jeff's appearance, the Betina sisters wanted to proudly tell him, yes, the Flame Dragon Legion that now dominated the Central and Pakistani provinces was formed by Evan and Elena through great difficulty. But when they thought of the death of their elder brother Evan, the pride disappeared in an instant.
Thinking of this, Elena couldn't help but shed tears again, and then sobbed to Prince Jeff, "The Rich City is ours, and the Flame Dragon Legion is ours. But the elder brother who made contributions to these foundations left us forever a few days ago."
"Is that child Alvin dead? What's going on? Who did it?" The old prince was also very excited when he heard Alvin's death. But after asking, Prince Jeff seemed to have thought of something. After frowning and thinking for a while, the old prince said to Elena in a trembling voice: "Can we accidentally kill Ewen when the grain transport team in Xicheng that the Kaban legion ambushed halfway a few days ago, and the lord of Xicheng City, Alvin, was your elder brother?"
Hearing Prince Jeff's words, although Elena didn't know which unit the Kaban Legion was, she thought that her elder brother Ewen was indeed dead on the way to transport grain. Since that's the case, it was indeed as the old prince said. So after thinking for a while, Elena whispered: "Yes, elder brother Elena died on the way to transport grain."
Elena's words were like a bolt from the blue. After listening to it, Prince Jeff instantly seemed to be ten years older. His face, which was already very energetic, became as if he was dead at this moment. Holding his fists tightly, Prince Jeff said hatefully: "It was me who killed my grandson with my own hands, and it was me who killed him."
Seeing the old prince's painful appearance, Elena immediately stepped forward and comforted her softly: "Three Grandpa, don't do this. People cannot be resurrected. Since the eldest brother has left, it will be useless to blame ourselves. Your health is important, don't get angry because of this."
"Haha, what qualifications do I have in my body matter? I personally stifled the greatest hope of our Sai Empire. If my ancestors knew about it, they would not forgive me. How could this happen? Why did God tease our Perkins family like this? I worked so hard to accumulate a foundation for you a few children who escaped back then. But I never expected that after fighting, our family fought together." Prince Jeff was very excited, and his body trembled unconsciously while talking.
Both Betina and Elena knew that Prince Jeff felt extremely guilty because of Alvin's death. But both sisters were already thinking about it. Alvin was their relatives and Prince Jeff was their elders. They were both related by blood, so now that Prince Jeff was gone, he should ask Prince Jeff to take care of his health right now.
The two sisters came to the old prince on the left and right, and comforted him softly: "Three Grandpa, the death of my elder brother is irreversible, and you didn't know before that this Xicheng belongs to our Perkins family. Now our family is finally reunited. I think we can only unite and develop the foundation that we have finally built up well. This will make our elder brother smile and make the ancestors of the family happy."
Listening to the two sisters' comforting words, Prince Jeff sighed after struggling for a long time, "Oh, God is willing to do people, God is willing to do people. Girls, don't be nervous, I am the old man. I'm also thinking about it. You are right. What we should do now is how to develop well and finally repeat the glory of the Say Empire. I am a little tired, can we go to the city to rest first?"
Hearing the old man's request, the two sisters nodded quickly. But when they saw the troops behind the old prince, the two sisters couldn't help but look embarrassed again.
Seeing their expressions, Prince Jeff said directly: "Don't worry, let them follow us into the city. Although I am not strong in leading troops, my prestige in their hearts cannot be ignored. I can guarantee that after they enter the city, they will not cause any trouble."
When the old prince heard the promise in person, the two sisters supported the old prince happily and slowly walked towards the Xicheng.
After the old prince turned around and issued the order to enter the city, although his soldiers were very puzzled and looked at each other. However, the old prince's order could not be resisted. After hesitating for a moment, the soldiers in the Pas legion began to slowly follow Prince Jeff's footsteps and slowly move closer to the city of Stream.
From beginning to end, Li Yi quietly acted as a shadow on the side. Until all the members of the Pas Legion had entered the city and Li Yi found a place for Betina and the others to settle down for the Pas Legion soldiers in the stream city, Li Yi walked leisurely and walked towards his residence.
Wherever Li Yi passed, the soldiers who could recognize Li Yi's Yanlong Legion all gave Li Yi an admirable look. Because in the battle last night, Li Yi had already established the image of a god of war for these soldiers. In their hearts, Li Yi was an existence stronger than Alvin.
But Li Yi didn't care much about this. Whenever he met a soldier who dared to greet him, Li Yi would nod easily.
When Li Yi rushed back to his residence and began to practice, the Betina sisters also helped Prince Jeff back to their sister's bedroom. They did not have any hindrance to the old prince.
As soon as he arrived at the bedroom of Betina's sisters, the old prince asked straight to the point: "Betina, how many troops does the Flame Dragon Legion have now."
When Betina heard the old man’s question, she knew that the old prince must have some military problems. So Betina turned her eyes directly to Elena, meaning that her sister would discuss this issue with Prince Jeff.
Knowing that his sister was not good at these things, Elena also stood up considerately, looked at Prince Jeff and said with a smile: "After the battle last night, there were still 140,000 soldiers in the Flame Dragon Legion, but because the war was too frequent, these soldiers could not fight normally in the sea for a short time."
"Ah, it seems that it's all the troubles that grandpa has brought to you." The old prince was about to sigh, but after seeing the resentful eyes of the two sisters, the old prince knew that they were not resentful of leading their troops to attack Xicheng, but did not want to keep themselves in self-blame. So Prince Jeff smiled awkwardly and said calmly: "After this battle, my Pas Legion has only more than 30,000 soldiers left. Including the other two legions, there are only more than 60,000 soldiers in the coalition. Three days, in just three days, the 200,000 army has lost more than half. You guys are really not easy. But I feel relieved to see you juniors so promising."
