Chapter 1034.1: The Lord Warden Commander Who Is Busy as a Dog - Part 1
Chen Chao soon entered the Xie Family's residence and met the Xie Family ancestor, who was sitting in a wicker chair outside the ancestral hall.
The old man, who had once served as a Minister of the Six Ministries, now looked every bit his age. Sitting in the wicker chair, he seemed unable to rise no matter how hard he tried.
His time was running out.
Seeing how frail he had become, Chen Chao felt a pang of sadness.
The current state of the Great Liang Dynasty was, while directly forged by successive emperors, only able to reach where it was today because of the support of these veteran ministers.
Among them, this old ancestor of the Xie Family had contributed immeasurably, after all, he was the helmsman of one of Great Liang's two great families.
From beginning to end, he had never once thought of hindering the Great Liang Emperor and Chen Chao's steps.
The Xie Family ancestor opened his clouded eyes, looked at the young man before him, moved his lips, and said with some effort, "There's nothing to be sad about. Everyone reaches the end eventually, it's only a matter of sooner or later."
"Although this old man is about to reach the end, I keep telling myself to slow down, slower still, because this old man truly want to see you reclaim the thirty thousand miles of the desolate north, slaughter every last demon of the northern demon race, and ensure that the human race never again suffers even the slightest calamity from the demon race."
