Bixi raised a ridiculous number of horses that Qin Yun felt like he was living back in the days before he turned 18. He brushed and fed the horses every day and took the horses for a walk. Fortunately, Moschery only had one dragon; if not, like Bixi, there would be more than a hundred Zhongyan every day… That picture was so beautiful that he dared not look at it!
Being with horses all day long, Qin Yun wanted to learn how to ride a horse first. He found a mare that seemed quite tame and stroked the horse’s back for a long time. He almost fell asleep while waiting for the horse before he got on it.
Bixi couldn’t stand it and looked at him, “If you’re going up, go quickly. Don’t dawdle.”
“…” Qin Yun struggled for a long time, “I have a trauma! I always feel that I can’t ride a horse… this kind of creature.”
Bixi was a little surprised, “Do you still remember?”
“?” Qin Yun, “Remember what?”
Bixi: “Your spiritual link before you were eight years old…”
Qin Yun was horrified, “I have a spiritual link?!!!”
“What’s all the fuss about?” Bixi sneered. “You’ve become the guide of a god-tier sentinel. How much weaker can you be?”
Qin Yun: “…” What is this?! His 10 years as a sanitary pad were in vain!!
Bixi was riding on the horse. She controlled the reins and let the horse pace slowly, “I worked at the Guide Research Institute of Olympus 30 years ago. At that time, the Empire was still in the early days of Helu, and Olympus had not yet become independent, but the Land of Gods had its own ambitions.”
“God-level guide plan?” Qin Yun asked with a frown.
Bixi sighed, and her expression became solemn, “Of course, it’s not just about a god-level guide… Gene replication, cloning and combination are all experiments I do every day. How do you think His Majesty’s current abilities come from?”
“If sentinel is human wisdom.” Bixi looked at Qin Yun tenderly, “Then guide is human compassion.”
“In the year 2484, after 50 years of research, nearly a thousand scientists initiated genetic reform, and the ‘sentinel’ with terrifying five senses and combat power, super willpower and spiritual link was born.” Qin Yun paused, “That’s from the third year textbook of Averio Academy.”
Bixi said narrowly, “I didn’t expect that you, little Rainbow Dash, would be very serious about studying.”
“What’s the use of being serious… I’ve been a loser in the academy for 5 years…” Qin Yun said depressedly. He thought for a while and couldn’t help but ask Bixi, “Do you mean that sentinel can be cultivated to a higher level by means of gene duplication or cloning?”
“That’s right.” Bixi nodded, “The genes of the Issa royal family can be passed down to this day through generations of copying and cloning. Although god-level sentinels are precious and rare, sometimes their abilities are incomplete due to genetic instability. This is a consequence left over from the evolution through scientific means… It is human wisdom that promotes the purity and development of the sentinel bloodline.”
“However, there are also heights that human wisdom cannot reach, and that is evolution itself.” God Bixi took a breath. She seemed to be lost in memories; her eyes were heavy and sad, “Olympus tried to use the same method to cultivate the perfect god-level guide gene, but it has never been successful. The compatibility rate of god-level genes is even less than 50%, and the clones cultivated cannot be compared with the god-level sentinel.”
Qin Yun did not speak. He stroked the mane of the horse beside him and looked up at Bixi, “In other words, is it really impossible for a god-level guide to exist?”
“No, that’s not the case.” Bixi lowered her head and looked deeply into Qin Yun’s eyes, “Olympus is pursuing the wrong way of evolution, but miracles and hope often come by accident.”
Qin Yun didn’t seem to understand very well. When he wanted to ask again, he was interrupted by Bixi, “You will understand on your wedding night.”
“…” Qin Yun was speechless, “…Why do we have to wait until then?”
Bixi held the riding crop and laughed, and she replied nonchalantly, “Young people, well, being passionate and a bit impulsive is only natural. Just enjoy it to the fullest.”
Qin Yun: “…”
When the Olympus fleet arrived near the Imperial Palace, it did not receive the welcome it deserved. The other party’s public relations minister, Breaux, had a gloomy face. He tapped the back of his chair with his fingers and finally had no choice but to get off the aircraft by himself.
In the end, there was only a Doberman below that barked at him ferociously for a couple of times.
Breaux: “…”
The butler, Bajin, arrived a bit late. The elderly gentleman smiled elegantly and subtly, “Apologies for the tardy reception. His Majesty is currently choosing a wedding venue and lost track of time. Therefore, I am here to welcome you all.”
Breaux snorted with a smile, “Newly married, of course, I understand. However,” He turned back and glanced at Ba Jin, “I heard that the Queen is an ordinary person?”
“The Emperor and Queen love each other deeply.” The smile on Ba Jin’s face faded a little, “What does it matter if she is an ordinary person.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Breaux shrugged indifferently, “But His Majesty Moschery is not an ordinary person… Has he been in good spirits lately?”
Ba Jin frowned slightly. Just as he was about to refute, he saw four or five young men getting off another aircraft. One of them was wearing a white hooded cloak from head to toe.
Breaux immediately greeted him with a respectful expression. He seemed to have some exchanges with the other party before he turned to Ba Jin and said with a haughty expression, “His Royal Highness Kyle wants to meet the Emperor alone. Please help me pass on a message.” The gentleman replied, and Breaux continued, “Let’s just say that the god-level guide wants to provide mental guidance for your majesty, and I hope His Majesty will be able to honour us with his presence.”
“God-level guide?” Moschery narrowed his eyes and repeated, “That’s what they said?”
Ba Jin hesitated but still nodded.
“Although it has been rumoured that Olympus possesses god-level genes…” Lin Dongliang frowned deeply, “But didn’t the investigation show that the cloning was unsuccessful?”
Moschery’s expression was cold. He stood up, put on his military cap, and showed a sarcastic smile, “Since the other party has said so, it would be a pity not to go see him.”
When Breaux saw His Majesty the Emperor striding forward in the corridor, he was so shocked that he almost fell to his knees on the ground. Moschery raised his chin and signalled indifferently, “Open the door.”
Ba Jin bent down to salute, and he opened the door of the reception room over Breaux, who was standing stiffly.
Kyle was standing by the window. He turned around when he heard the noise.
Moschery looked at the other man silently.
“Your Majesty.” The guide bowed his head slightly in respect. He stretched out his slender white fingers and took off the hood on his head. The moment he saw the other person’s face clearly, Lin Dongliang, who was standing behind the emperor, took a gentle gasp.
Moschery’s face was as cold as frost.
Kyle smiled. He was exactly the opposite of Moschery, with a silver mask on the right half of his face.
“Your Majesty.” His gaze fell on the Emperor’s feet. After looking at it for a while, he slowly said, “You have a beautiful and mighty dragon.”
Qin Yun was so tired after brushing the last horse that he could hardly lift his arms. He simply took off his clothes and lay on the haystack, vaguely thinking about taking a nap, but as soon as he closed his eyes and prepared to squint for a while, the sound of buzzing wings suddenly came from above his head.
The emerald fax bird flew back and forth several times and finally landed on Qin Yun’s shoulder. He lazily reached out and took out the invitation from the Emperor.
Moschery’s handwriting was much better than the first time he saw it. He wrote Bixi’s name on the title page.
Qin Yun couldn’t help but open it. In the blank space in the middle of the invitation, the other party carefully transcribed the contract oath between sentinel and guide.
I would like to be your lighthouse, guiding your way, smoothing the scars of loneliness and the surges of stormy seas.
Your life belongs to me, and my soul will be with you.
His Majesty the Emperor then wrote another line, “On the day of X, month, XXXX, I made this oath with Qin Yun, etching it in my heart, never to be betrayed.”
Qin Yun looked at it for a long time before closing the invitation. He shook the envelope and found that there was an extra piece of paper inside, with only one sentence on it.
“The flowers are blooming on the road, and you can return home slowly.”
Notes:
So I was actually going to make a quick note for the next chapter 39, because I found something odd
Chapter 34-36 title is 陌上 = The road(field)
While Chapter 37-39 is 花开 = The bloom (flowers blooming)
Chapter 40-42 is 归途 = Homeward Journey (journey to home)
Together they make 陌上花开归途, which means flowers blooming on the road(field) on the way home
At first I was wondering if it’s intentional but after reading the last sentence on this chapter. Yup, it’s intentional
