State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao had thought that the aftermath would be extremely troublesome once the news of Xu Jin's death in battle spread.
But in fact, he had worried too much.
It wasn't so troublesome.
Most people just confirmed Xu Jin's death, expressed some sadness and regret, and then moved on.
No one delved into the root of the matter.
And very few fretted over Xu Jin's funeral affairs.
Although he was accustomed to such occurrences, having his own close one encounter it still left Cheng Yuxiao with some feelings.
Indeed, life extinguishes like a candle flame!
Death isn't to be feared; what's dreadful is when the memories of you in this world begin to rapidly fade.
Maybe after someone's death, you'd discover you weren't as important as you'd imagined.
Cheng Yuxiao even wondered if he would be treated the same way after his own death.
Was he not as important as he thought?
If he died one day, the sky of Dachen would likely not collapse either!
