Chapter 1161 The Strange Hero and the Master Thief

Mo Beihan looked at her, moved:

"Ranran, without you, I really don't know what would have become of Dayue."

He was extremely fortunate that such a sincere, kind, and exceptionally capable woman had been born in the Kingdom of Da Yue, which was a blessing for all the people of Da Yue.

Ranran is the guardian deity of Da Yue!

"Since I am a Da Yue citizen, I will do my best to protect Da Yue's peace. You know, my wish is to retire and live a carefree life in a few years. If anyone prevents me from doing so, I will make sure they have no peace!"

Mo Beihan nodded:

"Yes, I will try my best to help you realize this wish. I just hope that you will allow me to stay by your side in the future."

Although he didn't quite understand what "lying flat" meant, based on Ranran's personality, he could roughly guess that Ranran wanted to live a life where she didn't have to worry about anything and could enjoy life in peace.

No matter what kind of life she wants to live in the future, he hopes to have a place for himself by her side. He is willing to accompany her to live the life she wants to live and to do anything she wants to do.

"Are you really willing to give up your power and status to live a simple, ordinary life with me?"

She looked at him with a half-smile.

He looked at her, his gaze unwavering, sincere beyond compare.

"I do! Ranran, before, I didn't know what I wanted in this life, nor did I know how I wanted to live the rest of my life."

But since I met you, I've slowly come to understand my own feelings. For the rest of my life, I only want to be with you.

No matter where you go, what you do, or what kind of life you live, I just hope to always be by your side.

Even if it were just the two of us, finding a secluded, remote mountain forest, living a simple life of farming and weaving, I would be more than happy.

Having confirmed his feelings once again, she nodded in satisfaction.

"Don't worry, I wouldn't want that kind of isolated life, even if you wanted to. I have so many wonderful family members, and I can't bear to leave them."

At most, I'll leave them for a few years to travel around and experience different cultures. Ultimately, I'll return to my family.

"I didn't accumulate all that wealth to hide away in some deserted place and live a primitive life of farming and weaving."

The two were talking about their future plans, without giving any thought to the fact that a throne was waiting for them to inherit.

That supreme position, which hundreds of millions of people yearn for, is not as important to them as having a good meal or appreciating a beautiful view.

Qiao Ran doesn't care; she just wants to live the carefree life she desires.

Mo Beihan had already made plans. His grandfather was still in good health and seemed capable of living for another twenty or thirty years.

Once Ranran is willing to get married and have children, he will work even harder to produce a baby as soon as possible, so that his grandfather can raise him/her as his/her successor from a young age, while he stays by Ranran's side and enjoy their life together.

The two rode their horses, chatting as they went.

The army marches slowly, and with so much wealth to take back, it will probably take at least a month to get back to the big ship at the seashore.

The two of them didn't want to waste time slowly following the army.

The two of them simply rode horses around the Japanese island, visiting all the major towns.

They not only gained a thorough understanding of the situation on the Japanese islands, but also enriched the space with treasures and resources, completely reducing the gap between the rich and poor in the entire Japanese country by eight or nine tenths.

Soon after, the story spread throughout the Japanese islands: a strange and cunning thief had emerged in the martial arts world, who only stole from the homes of the powerful and wealthy.

Moreover, they could empty the treasures of several or even a dozen families overnight, leaving no trace.

The entire island was searching for this master thief, unaware that he had already sailed away on a large ship.
