Chapter 81: Years in the Dark
The tattered ruins, the silent sacrifice, Tie Feng'er hid all her emotions in the bottom of her heart. A year ago, when she learned of Ao Zhan's death, she wanted to rush over immediately, but at that time, the demons were raging, and her master couldn't control her temperament.
Now that the demon disaster has calmed down, she has a chance to go out of the city, and even so, she is followed by Guo Siyuan and Tang Wange, the two foreign elders.
"Miss, do you want to drive that person away?" Guo Siyuan said, pointing to the old man who had obtained the Xuan-rank supreme artifact.
Tie Feng'er shook her head slightly, "No need, just let him stay." ”
"Yes. Guo Siyuan answered the call and sat down on the ground and drank quietly.
The old man hurriedly came over respectfully, knelt in front of Guo Siyuan, held the flying sword with both hands, and pleaded, "Senior, junior is willing to give this sword to senior, I just ask senior to save my life!"
Guo Siyuan glanced at him and said indifferently, "What you should ask for is my young lady." ”
The old man swallowed his saliva and walked respectfully in front of Tie Feng'er, "Miss, please save the old man's life!"
"Put down the flying sword and go, but I don't need it, I'll go to Huaqingchi Academy in three days to get it." Tie Feng'er said softly.
The old man hesitated.
Guo Siyuan's eyes narrowed, and he sneered, "It's just a Xuan-level top-grade artifact, and my young lady still disdains to lie to you." ”
"I don't dare, I just don't understand why Miss didn't collect the flying sword and help me?" the old man said.
Tie Feng'er turned around, her eyes flashing with a soft light, and muttered, "Your eyes look like a person's ...... when you are desperate."
"Like a man?" the old man was confused.
"Hey. Guo Siyuan sighed on the side, shook his head and took a sip of wine.
"You go, without the flying sword, those people won't waste their strength against you. Tie Feng'er said.
"No, I'm not leaving. In this life, I have lived a good life, but today, I don't want to run away anymore!" the old man sighed, and said with firm eyes, "If Miss doesn't dislike it, the old man is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses, even if he risks his life in this life, he will never turn his back on Miss!"
Tie Feng'er looked at him, without nodding or acquiescing. Guo Siyuan on the side was expressionless, and there seemed to be a flame rising in his eyes, staring directly at the old man.
"Miss, this person's soul fluctuated a lot just now, should his words come from the bottom of his heart, to stay or not to stay?" Guo Siyuan asked Tie Feng'er.
Tie Feng'er raised her hand slightly, and smashed an emerald green halo straight into the old man's body, and then threw the flying sword to him, and said, "Since you are driven by me, you will accept ten heads, and the right to vote for the name." ”
With the blue light entering the body, the old man was pleased to find that his injuries were improving rapidly, and this blue light was still improving his physique, and his whole body seemed to be getting younger.
A wave of power and passion immediately burst out, his gray hair was gradually turning black, he held the flying sword, and suddenly the battle intent was overwhelming.
"Thank you, Miss!" he knelt down on one knee, excited.
"Since Miss has given the order, you should go quickly. Guo Siyuan said coldly.
The old man suddenly looked embarrassed, knelt down on one knee and said, "It stands to reason that this is the first order that Miss gave me, I should swear to complete it, although these people are hateful, but the old man really does not want to add to the killing, if the young lady doubts my loyalty, the old man is willing to use this arm to make that name!"
'Whew!'
As he spoke, the old man spread out his left hand and held a sword in his right hand, slashing down fiercely!
'Crunch!' a rattan appeared out of thin air, wrapping the flying sword around it in a single shot, unable to move the slightest.
"This?" The old man's eyes showed surprise, only to feel that the vest was drenched in cold sweat, and the flying sword was less than an inch away from his arm.
"Let's go, come here with me next year. "Tie Feng'er's clothes are fluttering, like a fairy.
"Yes!" the old man was stunned at first, and then he was excited, and said yes again and again.
The corners of Guo Siyuan's mouth on the side moved, as if he was smiling, and he admired this young lady more and more in his heart.
Seeing the old man follow Tie Feng'er away, the monks' faces suddenly showed all kinds of complicated looks, whether they were envious, jealous, or resentful, but they all understood that the other party would no longer be the old guy who was dying.
After some sighing, the monks dispersed, and their path still needed to be continued, whether it was smooth or rough.
......
No one knew that under the ruins of the unearthed turquoise flying sword, there was a body buried for a long time. This is none other than Ao Zhan, whose soul is annihilated. It stands to reason that a year has passed, and his body should have rotted into a mound of dry bones, but at this moment his skin is ruddy and full, as if he is asleep.
His soul was shrouded in darkness, like the cold winter of the eternal night, and there was not even the sound of the desolate wind, only eternal silence, like a cage.
Little by little, the flying sand of soul fragments drifted in the darkness, swaying like a headless fly, day after day.
Until one day, a tiny crystal filament appeared here, and the soul sand immediately surrounded. The two touched, and with a 'pop', a woman's sobs suddenly resounded in the darkness of the eternal night.
"Impossible, I don't believe he died like this! Master, you lied to me! I'm going to find him, I'm going to find him......!
"It is said that good people don't live long, and disasters will last for thousands of years, shouldn't you, a disciple, live well?"
"You have saved me more than once, how many Jedi have you taken me through, why is it that this time I am not here, you will never come back?"
"Actually, I've always wanted to tell you that I like you, I've looked for you, and I've even met your servants, and I'm overjoyed, because I know I'll be able to see you when you come back from your mission!"
"I've thought about how many times we met, and even when I was alone, I kept trying to say what I wanted to say at that moment, and now I think about it, I'm so stupid, the most I want to do is hug you, and tell you that I like you, I miss you......"
The shattered sand of the soul trembled gently, and it was scattered again and again. I don't know how many times they have been dispersed, and these souls have been shattered into a vague human form.
The sound stopped abruptly, and even the filaments shattered. Everything returned to the eternal and silent darkness of the past, leaving only a vague humanoid form and desolate sand drifting.
......
Winter goes to spring, and Changyang Mountain is like a full color. Now there are more and more monks staying here, because just a month ago, someone actually got a ground-level lower-grade artifact, and as soon as the news came out, it immediately exploded, and all kinds of scattered cultivators flocked to it, and there were even many masters of the Immortal Pearl Realm.
The attraction of the earth-level artifact is self-evident.
"Zhang Laosan, I didn't expect that after half a year, you actually broke through the Netherworld, amazing!" said a big man with a scar on his face.
"Hey, it's a fart to break through the Netherworld, this Changyang Mountain is not as good as last year, and now the masters of the Netherworld Realm have grabbed a handful, damn it, how did you come up with a ground-level underworld weapon, so we have a slim chance!" The thin man known as Zhang Laosan spat and sighed.
"Yes, last month, that guy didn't know what kind of shit luck he took, not to mention that he got the ground-level artifact, he actually escaped, and now the entire Changyang Mountain is not in peace!" a middle-aged man said indignantly.
"Actually, I don't have the luxury of a ground-level artifact at all, as long as I have a Xuan-level high-grade combat knife, I should be satisfied, the earth-level artifact ...... It's too hot. Someone sighed.
"Yes!" the monks chimed in.
In the distance, a tall, thin and arrogant young man looked over, his eyes were cold, and his body was extremely murderous. Got up, took a step, and walked towards the monks.
"Hey, he actually dares to come to Changyang Mountain, go quickly!" The master named Zhang Laosan was so frightened that he immediately left the area.
The other people, although they didn't know why, still ran along, and as they ran, someone asked, "What are we running, who is that person?"
Zhang Laosan scolded, "You still ask who that person is, he is the guy who got the ground-level spirit weapon, called Jue, I didn't expect his skills to be profound in a short period of time!"
"My good man, no wonder his eyes look like murderous!"
"Hurry up, go, don't mess with this evil star, it is said that this person is a madman, he killed more than 100 people while running for his life, and he was stunned to kill the chasing party!"
The men roared and fled like a plague god.
The young man named Jue came to the area where Zhang Laosan and others stopped, sat down on the ground, and quietly went out of his mind. But he didn't stay long before a group of uninvited guests arrived.
They surrounded Jue in a fan shape, and someone snorted coldly, "Hmph, I really didn't expect that after you got the heavy treasure, not only did you not disappear, but you actually returned to Changyang Mountain with such fanfare." ”
"Senior brother, don't talk to him, he killed more than 20 people I sent last time, and he will definitely crush him to ashes today!" a handsome young man roared.
"Yes, my junior sister also died at his hands, and today I will take revenge!" said a red-haired man.
Jue's cold eyes swept over each of them, and he sneered disdainfully, "Don't say it so high-sounding, kill me, the earth-level artifact is yours, but you also have to be mentally prepared to be torn apart by me!"
Everyone's faces were ugly, and they solemnly glanced at a metal claw that appeared on Jue's right hand.
"Pretend to be a force!" everyone rushes up, I don't believe he can resist and kill!" Seeing that everyone hesitated, the red-haired man squinted and persuaded him.
"Yes, he's just a netherworld, so many of us, almost all of us are netherworld, why be afraid of him!"
"Rush together, kill him and the baby will be ours!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Nearly a hundred people were agitated and rushed up, but the red-haired man smiled coldly, but quietly slipped to the side, waiting for an opportunity to move.
The light of the metal glove on Jue's right arm lit up, and the entire glove suddenly decomposed, turning into nearly a thousand sharp blade fragments, which scattered and turned into a little meteor after a slight pause.
"Ahhh
"Uh, what's going on?"
"Can't stop it, run...... Ahh
"Withdraw, withdraw!"
The fragments of the blades disintegrated by the gloves continued to spin and fly, not only extremely fast and difficult to resist, but also extremely damaging, crushing most of the monks in a single look, and the rest retreated with palpitations.
"Hehe, it's now!" the red-haired man who had been hiding from a long distance laughed darkly, and his figure suddenly moved.
The metal gloves in Jue's hand decomposed and killed the enemy before returning, and he was also on his back at the moment, so the red-haired man naturally wanted to seize this opportunity.
'Poof!' The red-haired man's rushing body suddenly stopped, and he looked down at a hand stuck in his chest in a daze.
"You, what's wrong with you?" the red-haired man coughed up blood in his mouth, looking incredulous.
"Speculative villain, I've been paying attention to you for a long time!" Jue said, the palm inserted into the other party's chest squeezed violently, and his heart burst with a click, and he easily collected the scattered Ying Ying artifact.
"The young man didn't know how to forbear, he obviously got the baby and escaped death, but in a short time, he turned back with a swagger, saying that you were stupid and you were raising you. ”
A sneer suddenly sounded, Jue turned his head when he heard the words, but found that there was no one, he was immediately stunned, and then raised his head sharply and saw an old man in Taoist robe standing in the void overlooking him.
"The ...... of the Immortal Pearl Realm" Jue's eyes were cold.
"Don't talk nonsense, hand over the gloves of the underworld, or you will die!" said the old man in the Taoist robe staring coldly at Jue with a posture overlooking all living beings.
"You can try!" Jue said indifferently, and at the same time, the fragments scattered by the mechanical arm were quickly withdrawn, and those scattered cultivators of the Netherworld had already scattered and retreated, staring at Jue with fear and not daring to step forward.
"Hmph!" the old man in the Dao robe snorted coldly, raised his left hand slightly, and a runic light handprint fell suddenly.
"You're too big!"
Jue let out a low snort, the metal glove on his right arm shone brightly, and he jumped up with a bang, blood-red claws flashed in the air, and at the same time as he crushed the rune light handprint, there was also a tail finger-thick condensation light, which rushed straight to the eyebrows of the old man in the Taoist robe.
The old man in the Taoist robe was stunned, then turned over his hand and offered a bronze mirror, and the beam of light rebounded away with a 'boom', and this beam of light was also crushed by Jue who rushed to it with his gloves.
"Sinister boy!" The old man in the Taoist robe frowned, took out a black hair and whisked the dust, and the wind rose between his sleeves, like a black crystal silk condensed by a big black hand towards Jue.
At this time, Jue had already begun to fall, and he couldn't help himself in mid-air, seeing the dust entangled, he split his gloves again and again, and suddenly the brilliant knife light wrapped his entire body.
