The Human Emperor (200-400)

C295: Wang Chong's Followers!

Kunwu Training Camp was surrounded by towering mountains. Along the perimeter of the training camp, on a path where all who wished to enter it would have to pass by, a tall figure with the air of a recluse stood.

From afar, he looked like a mountain erected on the spot. Neither speaking nor moving, he seemed to be waiting for someone.

"Brother Su!"

This was the first sight Wang Chong saw when he reached the foot of the mountain. Su Hanshan seemed to have been waiting there for him for quite a long time already.

Ignoring the greeting, Su Hanshan glanced at Wang Chong and uttered two words, "Thank you!"

"Is your little sister fine?" Wang Chong was taken aback for a moment, but he soon realized that Su Hanshan was here to thank him for his little sister. A small hint of a smile crept onto Wang Chong's lips.

It was probably impossible to change Su Hanshan's mindset. Regardless of who he was standing before, he would always maintain a distant look. But even so, Wang Chong realized that Su Hanshan's face wasn't as cold as before.

"I owe you a favor and a life," Su Hanshan said seriously. "If you have any request, tell me. Even if I have to climb up a mountain or blades or descend into a sea of flames, I'll surely do whatever you request of me."

This was the longest sentence that Su Hanshan had said to Wang Chong in the past three or four months. It seemed like Su Hanshan had to prepare quite a bit before he could say these words.

A person of Su Hanshan's character would never easily make promises, but if he did, he would surely fulfill his end of the promise.

Clearly, he had to think for a very long time before coming to this decision. Su Hanshan hated the idea of owing anything to anyone.

But he couldn't turn down Wang Chong's help. He could be callous to himself, but he couldn't ignore the plight of his little sister.

She was his only remaining kin in this world.

"You need not go that far!" Wang Chong was taken aback for a moment before chuckling. Su Hanshan seemed to have only come to this decision after a long period of contemplation, but he seemed to be overthinking his intentions. Wang Chong didn't have anything to request of him.

But after thinking about it for a moment, Wang Chong suddenly thought of something.

"If you wish to repay me, you just need to promise me something. To the west of Longxi, there's a place called Mountain Jiji. Promise me that you won't approach that area regardless of whatever happens!"

"Ridiculous!" Stunned by Wang Chong's request, Su Hanshan flung his sleeves, turned around, and left.

He never made promises easily, but Wang Chong's request sounded completely meaningless to him. Since Wang Chong was unwilling to say anything, he wouldn't force the other party either.

Su Hanshan quickly disappeared in the direction of Kunwu Training Camp.

Watching as Su Hanshan's back slowly disappeared in the distance, the smile lingering on his lips slowly faded, replaced with a frown.

Su Hanshan could have never imagined that Wang Chong was serious about this matter.

Naturally, Wang Chong couldn't have told him that the remote Mountain Jiji would be where he would meet his demise in the future.

After Su Hanshan's death, that mountain was renamed as “Great General Mountain”!

Of the innumerable battlefields across the entire Central Plains, few could compare in fame with that humble little mountain.
