Chapter 406: The Final War 10
After everyone celebrated a lot and was relieved and happy, Zhang An and the others asked what had happened in that war for Zhang Yi, even his master cannot see what had happened because Zhang Yi did not let him participate in the war.
So Zhang Yi told in rich detail everything that happened in the final war that he did not let his wives participate, with Zhang Yi telling them they were nervous in the tense moments and impressed with how Zhang Yi solved the things that could kill them all.
So his wives understood why Zhang Yi said they could not help anything in this war, only he and his clones killed most of the weakest demons and stopped the strongest demons until Long Feng killed them.
Everyone was impressed to know that the demons had so many reinforcements that even Zhang Yi did not know, after all their main advantage in this war was that Zhang Yi knew all the movements of the enemies, but Zhang Yi had also prepared for it happily and they were still able to win.
They kept talking about it for a while and then everyone was able to finally relax and Zhang An realized it too, after all, she has never seen Zhang Yi and his wives really relaxed since she was born.
After all, since before she was born, her parents had been expelled from the divine plane because of the invasion of the beasts, and after she was born and they recovered the divine plane they knew about the invasion of demons that would happen.
So Zhang An finally got to know what her family was like before the wars that lasted almost 100 years began, but it seemed like an eternity to all of them and the destruction of the world they knew almost happened.
In this time when everyone close to Zhang Yi was happier and more relaxed, only Lusserina realized that something was wrong with Zhang Yi, even after so much pressure and going through so much difficulty being mainly responsible for the victory of all of them, Zhang Yi did not seem happy afterward the end of that war.
It was hard to imagine thinking that it was a war almost lost and that they tried so hard to achieve victory, and in the final war Zhang Yi achieved a victory without losing any warriors who were in the allied army.
That night everyone was able to sleep relaxed and only Zhang Yi went for a walk during the night and Lusserina who realized this was with him, Zhang Yi just wanted to think so he walked as slowly as any mortal without using the laws of space and not even flying.
Zhang Yi was thinking so intensely that he didn't even notice that Lusserina had followed him after a while Zhang Yi stopped at a tree and Lusserina got closer to him and it was only when she was just over a meter from him that Zhang Yi noticed her.
"Hi Lusserina, you should rest together with the others, I know that you too have been stressed in the last few years, there were many difficulties before we achieved this victory."
"I will not be able to sleep soundly knowing that you are still so stressed even though the war is over, tell me, Zhang Yi, why are you still so stressed even after everyone you saved?"
Zhang Yi always knew that Lusserina was his wife who knew him best, Lusserina knew Zhang Yi even more than Lu Bi who lived hundreds of years more with him, that was because Lusserina was the first woman that Zhang Yi loved and she met him at a time when Zhang Yi had almost no feelings.
So it was with Lusserina that Zhang Yi cared more and it was also she who made him suffer the most when she was afraid of him, but that was what made him realize his mistakes and become kinder and made him who he was today.
"I know I can't lie to you, I'm like this because that was the battle that I had to risk most to win since the time I was a mortal, I was always prepared for all the fights I had to do and I always fought with the certainty that I could win."
"Even in the most difficult moments like it was in the underworld, I only fought when I had confidence and what happened there also made me learn to prepare myself even more before taking my chances."
"That is why the only thing that caused me to die was my own martial heart that could not stand the fact that I caused the death of my masters, but even in that time my preparation made me able to go back in time."
"In this war against demons it was the first time that I was really not prepared for this, I had to spend the time that was twice the time I had in life training and I brought you all to train with me to try to prepare for the war."
"In the end, it was luck that brought this victory to us, it was luck that I had an enlightenment in my cultivation that was something I never trusted to reach the Dao from space, and it was luck that Long Feng taught me the technique of Dragon's Breath."
"It was also fortunate that I found those special eyes of mine in the underworld that we destroyed and that was the other place that I almost died, without the laws of time and space that I got because of those eyes we would not have survived."
"But even with all this, hundreds of billions of people and beasts died in our universe, destroyed by demons and before by beasts, many smaller worlds were destroyed, including the world in which we met and that you were born."
"All of this because I was never as strong as I thought, nor was I ever really prepared for things and I am also not that Divine Talent that everyone says, I just got lucky."
Lusserina could understand what Zhang Yi was feeling, even someone as brilliant as he suffered from uncertainty and doubts like everyone else, Zhang Yi always wanted to have control over everything because, in fact, he was always afraid, he always wanted to run away to survive like his father he had taught him in the first war he participated when he was a mortal.
But a divine talent like Zhang Yi had to be born in a time of hardship like this, he had to be born to kill demons and save billions of other lives, he had to be born to protect this universe and become a hero.
But all that pressure ended up leaving Zhang Yi at a loss, he who never wanted to worry about anyone but his family and always said he was selfish was saddened by the deaths of billions of people that almost nobody he knew cared about.
"Zhang Yi, what you are feeling is something that few feel for others, it is empathy, you feel the suffering and death of people you have never even met and never had an obligation to protect."
"This is the only feeling you might have felt that you lost when your masters sent you to the continent of the blue moon, and it was that feeling that saved other hundreds of billions of people and gave you all that 'luck'."
"You are a hero, Zhang Yi, you did everything you did to save people, it's okay for you not to be happy with the end of this war because of everyone who died and it's also okay for you to understand that you can't have the control of everything, I will always be with you."
Hearing this, Zhang Yi, who was strong throughout the war, leading everyone can cry and he spent all night crying in the arms of Lusserina, who was the person he confined the most until he felt relieved and could sleep.
Lusserina loved Zhang Yi more for this display of humanity that he still had, but what she didn't know Zhang Yi wouldn't think after that day that it was okay not to be in control of everything.
Zhang Yi had taken an oath to himself that he would be so strong to finally be in control of everything and become a God for this lawless world in which the weak died only because the demons decided so.
After that Zhang Yi can relax and go back to how he was before, the divine plane and Divine Sanctuary of the Beasts gradually returned to how they were before, only warriors from the great divine plane sects survived and one of the great sects lost them all the elders of the Eternal Realm and became the weakest of the great sects.
The territory of the elves remained the same and the territory of the beasts also, the only difference was that Long Feng no longer gave the sects so much freedom for what happened in the past when the beasts tried to invade the divine plane did not happen again.
