1.

The night before Lin Xiao and Ye Wuxin set off for Qishan, they were in the dark alleys of Moon Song City.

Ye Wuxin hid his figure in the shadows, his arms were folded, his face was expressionless, even if he was in a dirty dark alley, he was still indifferent. But the killing intent emanating from her body, and the ruthless blade inserted in a corpse beside her, made those extremely vicious people who had lived in the dark alleys for a long time and often did some lewd/promiscuous things not dare to come closer, otherwise, the corpse on the ground would be an example!

A dark wind suddenly flashed in the alleyway, and a figure swept over Ye Wuxin's head like a ghost. Ye Wuru, who was wearing a cyan robe and a black cloak, stood in front of her with a knife in his hand. As soon as he stood still, before he could say anything, a lean man suddenly stretched out his hand from behind him and clasped his shoulder: "Boy, this place is not something you can come to if you want to, hurry up and go home and eat!"

Ye ruthlessly took off the hood on his head, turned his head, and said in a gloomy voice: "I'm sorry, what did you just say?"

"I said this, ......" As soon as the thin man said three words, he heard a "poof", only to see Ye ruthlessly hook his lips and smile, and a trace of cold and ruthless killing intent appeared on his face, which looked extremely terrifying in the gloomy environment of this dark alley. The long knife in his hand was out of its sheath at some point, and it was being held by him with his backhand, and the narrow and sharp blade was directly inserted into the abdomen of the lean man.

The smell of blood permeated the narrow alleyway, and the lean man didn't see how Ye Wuru made a move, he was hit by a knife, and his body was committed, and he died on the spot.

At the moment when the thin man fell, Ye Wuxin pulled up the ruthless blade stuck in the dead man on the ground—the man tried to molest her, but she cut his throat directly with a knife—causing the thin man's body to fall on top of the original corpse and fold it together.

There was another corpse in the alley all of a sudden, and the breath of death spread with the night wind, making people want to retreat.

Ye Wuxin watched Ye Wuru pick up the long hem of his cloak to wipe the bloodstained blade, and said coldly, "You're late." ”

Ye Wuru wiped the blade while saying: "On the way here just now, I found that someone was following me, judging from the light skills, it should be considered a good hand, I don't know the details of the other party, in order to avoid extraneous branches, and I don't want to entangle with her more, so I took a little more detour and threw the person away." ”

Ye Wuxin said vigilantly: "What person?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it seems to have come out of the green building in the city called 'Red Silk Garden', a general manager, surnamed Hua, I forgot what the specific name was. Ye ruthlessly said, "I have found out a lot of news about this place in Moon Song City in the past two days, and the flower manager and the Oiran in their building are all second only to the 'Four Veins of Moon Song'!"

Ye Wuxin's face sank: "You said you were here to help? I worked hard in the ghost market to fight in the ring and find clues, but you went to the Qinglou to have a good time?!"

"There's no such thing, don't charge me with indiscriminately!" Ye Wuru obviously sensed Ye Wuxin's anger, and hurriedly began to calm his sister's temper: "Your brother and I are not interested in those things of Fengyue, these things are all inquired about in the market. ”

Ye Wuxin snorted coldly: "A woman in a green building, where did she get such a big ability?"

"Who knows, maybe it's the eyeliner that other sects have planted in this city. Ye ruthlessly shrugged his shoulders, and then thought of the purpose of his coming tonight, and said: "By the way, just talking about the ghost market, what you did in the 'knife edge licking blood', I saw it all in the audience - you did a good job, and actually found the long-lost "Demon High Level". This is bound to greatly enhance my father's cultivation and the strength of the sect, it seems that your behavior this time has gained a lot!"

Ye Wuxin heard something in his brother's words: "What's the matter? Do you want to ask for the scroll and grab credit from me?!"

Ye smiled ruthlessly: "How is it possible, you have to change your attitude, just outsiders, not your own family." But let's talk about it again, it's a hidden danger to put that picture scroll next to you, and there are still quite a few people in this city who are salivating over the 'food' of this 'gluttonous feast'. If I hadn't helped you get rid of a lot of them in the past two days, I don't know how many people would want to come to your door and rob them!"

"I can't give it to you. Ye Wuxin said decisively, "It's not a matter of believing or not trusting you, I've been carrying that scroll with me for the past two days, and Lin Xiao has also seen this matter." If I give you the scroll now, tomorrow he will be suspicious of me if he finds that the scroll is no longer with me. I can't let him think anything against me before I do anything against him!"

Ye nodded ruthlessly: "Okay, listening to you say this, it's my negligence." Then you can find a time for Shinying to bring the scroll back to the sect, and you don't have to give it to me. Also, about the other half of the remnants, how did you find the clues?"

Ye Wuxin said: "Lin Xiao and I will leave for Qishan tomorrow to find the whereabouts of the Youxuan Ji clan, and we should be able to find clues soon." ”

"Then you think about it...... How to deal with Lin Xiao?" Ye looked at his sister's eyes ruthlessly and said slowly.

Ye Wuxin glared at him, then turned his head, took advantage of the darkness here to remove the dodge in his eyes, and said coldly after a while: "Don't worry, I'll focus on finding the remaining half of the remnant map first, and when the content of the map is restored to its original state, Lin Xiao's side will naturally have the means to deal with him!"

2.

Time comes back to the present.

At the bottom of the Eternal Tribulation Palace, on the shore of a secluded lake, on a stone cliff.

"It's ...... 'heart-shattering'...... Right?!" Lin Xiao supported half of his body, and such a large movement affected the wound where the meridians in his body were broken, and the pain made his whole body curl up, and at the same time spit out a mouthful of blood. "It is worthy of the Ten Thousand Saints Ming Sect...... The daughter of the suzerain, scheming and hand-...... The means are really ...... Ahem...... Extraordinary!" he forced out another mouthful of blood.

Ye Wuxin watched Lin Xiao vomit blood, and the hand holding the knife trembled slightly, but he still stabilized, and a sneer appeared on his face: "Yes, it's 'heart-destroying and pulse-cutting'." Sure enough, as the eldest disciple of the Purple Sun Divine Sect, his knowledge is not ordinary, but it's a pity that you're going to die!"

The "heart-destroying and pulse-cutting" that the two of them said in their mouths is a set of famous methods of the Ten Thousand Saints Ming Sect. As the name suggests, this set of palm techniques is to hit the opponent's body with the fierce and violent palm force, which can achieve the purpose of destroying the heart and cutting off the meridians. But in fact, this palm method is divided into two types, namely "heart-destroying style" and "pulse interception style", different palm styles correspond to different palm forces, and the target is also different.

The palm that Ye Wuxin hit Lin Xiao just now was a "pulse interception type", and the palm force penetrated through several acupoints on his back, and completely entered his body without Lin Xiao's defense, plus he had already consumed a lot of physical strength when he was originally suspended in the air, and his true qi was not enough, so he could not offset it with internal force at all. Therefore, the palm directly shattered the spleen meridian, lung meridian, liver meridian, and Sanjiao meridian in his body, and the heart meridian, pericardial meridian, and gallbladder meridian were also destroyed.

Fourteen meridians, broken four, and three damages, if it weren't for Lin Xiao's original internal cultivation, it would be very profound, protecting the aura Dan Yuan without damage, so that it would not be dissipated instantly;

Lin Xiao leaned his back against a rock, saving a little strength to speak: "Can you ...... Tell me why?!"

"Although I didn't use the 'Heart-Destroying Style' to directly shatter your heart, but the fourteen meridians in your body at the moment are broken and broken, even if you have the True Qi Dan Yuan to protect your body for a while and not die of dispersion, then the rest of your life will also be a wasted person, do you think it is necessary to delay time by using my words?" Ye Wuxin said with a slight sneer.

Lin Xiao laughed angrily: "Then why did you spare my life, didn't you just shake me to death with one palm?!"

Ye Wuxin said calmly: "I left you alive in order to repay you for taking care of me several times along the way." Actually, I don't think you should be too shocked by today's result, after all, we have already said in advance, we worked together just to find the remnants, and after the fragments of the map are collected, we will snatch them. ”

"You've always been smart, I'll admit it. Ye Wuxin continued, "But you are too self-righteous, which has led you to make a mistake that is too stupid—why do you think that you are superior to others in the righteous path, and why do you think that I will move closer to you?

Lin Xiao wiped away the blood spilling from his mouth and nose, and said with a dry smile: "You have already calculated it, so you didn't show too much desire along the way, which made me mistakenly think that you didn't care about the whereabouts of the remnant figure at all, and just acted on orders." It's just that you don't care, but you're deliberately suppressing your desires, and you should be waiting for this moment to explode!"

Ye Wuxin said bluntly: "You are right. ”

"You are still deliberately concealing your identity!" Lin Xiao continued, but after saying so many words, he felt a cramping pain in his body, and suddenly curled up and coughed for a long time, vomiting a few mouthfuls of blood, before he spread out his limbs and lay down, and said weakly: "Everyone knows that the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect is the daughter of Tiansha who hates Tiancheng, but whether it is your dictation, your martial arts, or the ruthless blade in your hand, all the clues show that you are just a disciple of 'Dark Fragrance', so I didn't take you very seriously from the beginning. ”

"If I had known that you were from the Ten Thousand Saints Ming Sect, no matter how much you tried to hide yourself, I would never let my guard down against you—in the final analysis, it was just that I was ignorant and careless. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Xiao suddenly remembered the scene when he first saw Ye Wuxin in the Innocent Family. At that time, when he said Ye Wuxin's "dark fragrance" Li Yinghua's closed disciple, she once laughed jokingly: "Why don't you say that I am Tiansha's daughter?" At that time, I thought that Ye Wuxin was just deliberately talking back, so I didn't doubt it, but simply replied: "If you can provide me with evidence, I don't mind saying that you are Ye Wuxin's daughter." ”

Unexpectedly, what Ye Wuxin said at the beginning turned out to be true!

Ye Wuxin heard him mention the incident when they first met, and couldn't help laughing: "I am the daughter of Tiansha, and I am also the 'Demon Sect Holy Maiden' in your mouth, but I am indeed a disciple of 'Dark Fragrance', and I didn't lie to you about this." When I was very young, my father sent me to Li Yinghua, where I studied with her, and studied the art of treachery and assassination. If you want to say that I am a disciple of Dark Incense, then it is not unreasonable. As soon as he talked about this, Ye Wuxin's face looked a little gloomy.

"Lin Xiao, you are indeed a talent, if you can, I also want to bring you into our Ten Thousand Saints Ming Sect like you co-opted me, with your ability, you will definitely be able to be reused by my father. But I'm a more realistic person, and I know that you will never be accepted by us, so I didn't give you any chance to choose, and directly attacked you. ”

Ye Wuxin put the two fragments into the box, wrapped them around his waist with a silkworm rope, and said: "I will take this map away, your meridians will be damaged or broken, and if there is a bad pool, it will bury your life, I advise you not to do any more useless struggles, stay here honestly, and wait for the people of your sect to come to you." ”

Lin Xiao was anxious, he knew that his skills were useless now, and he couldn't stop Ye Wuxin at all, but he couldn't watch her take the map away like this. At the moment, he forcibly struggled to get up, but he only felt a sharp pain between the viscera meridians, and for a while, the blood in his mouth spurted wildly, his eyes turned black, and his body stopped again, and he almost fainted.

Ye Wuxin sneered, turned around and wanted to leave, but he heard a clear whistle in his ears, a red light flashed, and his originally indifferent face couldn't help but change fiercely.

I saw Hongchen holding a long sword in front of him, this sword spirit had just come out of the Yin Soldier Dao, the bright red dress on his body had many burnt marks, and his face looked a little pale. With a murderous aura all over her body, she looked at Lin Xiao who fell to the ground behind Ye Wuxin, and the puddles of blood he spit out on the ground.

Although Hongchen couldn't see at a glance the injury caused by the broken meridians in Lin Xiao's body, he also knew that he must have suffered extremely serious internal injuries to vomit so much blood, and suddenly a wave of anger burned from the bottom of his heart and rushed straight to the heavenly spirit. She pointed forward with her long sword, her eyes were split, and she shouted: "The surname Ye, you are dead!"

As soon as the words fell, Hongchen jumped up, almost in the blink of an eye, the long sword shadow flew one after another, a sword "Quanming Valley", one move and four styles were struck out in an instant, and it looked as if four swords were swung at the same time, and the sword qi directly enveloped the "Zhongfu Acupoint" on Ye Wuxin's left shoulder, the "Lingxu Acupoint" under the right ribs, the "Juque Acupoint" on the chest, and the "Press the Door Acupoint" under the abdomen.

Ye Wuxin's steps were light, he dodged the two swords, and used the "Ender Phantom Heart Technique" to avoid the third sword. But Hongchen followed the sword, and the sword move was like having eyes, like a shadow, no matter how wonderful her body was, she couldn't get rid of it, and the fourth sword still couldn't dodge it, so she had to wave the ruthless blade to block it.

The swords clashed, and a series of sparks were encountered. Hongchen returned to his sword and retracted his momentum, only taking a step back, but Ye Wuxin slid away with a kick under his feet, and his face turned pale for a while. In this way, as long as anyone with a discerning eye can see that Fang Cai's move is obviously Hongchen has the upper hand.

Hongchen had just come out of the Yin Soldier Road, those Yin soldiers were not afraid of swords and swords, and only by destroying their heads could they solve the problem, and it must have taken a lot of effort to break through their encirclement, and Ye Wuxin had just pulled the rope for Lin Xiao above the stone cliff, and his physical strength had also consumed a lot. It stands to reason that both sides have a lot of losses, and it should be a balance of power. But Hongchen is the incarnation of the sword spirit, and he is far superior to Ye Wuxin in both cultivation and martial arts, so he shows an obvious distinction between superior and inferior.

Hongchen distinguishes the advantages and disadvantages with one move, and the momentum is flourishing, how can Ye Wuxin be allowed to ease his breath, and take advantage of the situation to make a move "Rain Rising Autumn Pool", the tip of the sword is raised, and the opponent's lower plate is rowed, and then the sword is raised from the bottom up. Ye Wuxin retreated half a step, and the ruthless blade swept, wanting to swing away the long sword of the red dust with a move "Long Smoke Sunset". Unexpectedly, Hongchen's move "Rain Rises Autumn Pool" was just a false move, and when Ye Wuxin led the knife up the next moment, the sword path of the long sword suddenly changed, and it became a move "Green Plum Like Bean", the tip of the sword fell continuously, and it was already a sword stabbed on the left and right shoulders of the opponent.

Ye Wuxin's body method was extremely fast, and after the sword, he quickly widened the distance between the two, so Hongchen's two swords were only a shallow stab, and he couldn't enter another sword after only entering the flesh. Rao is like this, even the two swords in the middle also made Ye Wuxin's spirit greatly reduced, and the knife moves on the ruthless blade gradually became a little chaotic.

Hongchen's eyes were so vicious, and he suddenly found that there were more flaws in Ye Wuxin's tricks, and they were not fake, they were obviously disrupted by themselves. At this time, on the square inch of this stone cliff, there was a flashing sword light and sword shadow, among which Hongchen's sword qi had accounted for about eighty or ninety percent, I saw her long sword trembling, holding a sword flower, and the sword shadow that came out of the illusion was ghostly, and it was extremely fast to block Ye Wuxin's knife move. With a move to "intercept the river and cut off the flow", the long sword went straight into the middle palace, and when Ye Wuxin stretched out his sword to block, the sword style suddenly changed.

Ye Wuxin said "ah", a sword had been hit on his right wrist, blood burst out, and the ruthless blade came out of his hand and fell to the ground. At the same time, Hongchen jumped up, raised his sword and made a move to "shine in the sky", and slashed directly at Ye Wuxin's head.

Ye Wuxin raised his hand in front of him in vain, subconsciously closed his eyes, and could already imagine the scene of Hongchen's sword slashing on his head in his mind.

Just as Hongchen's sword was about to hit the target, a huge force suddenly came from the side, directly pushing Ye Wuxin out of the enveloping range of the sword move. The next moment, a thin long knife came out from the shadows behind, and with lightning speed, it was directly inserted into Hongchen's heart from behind, and in an instant, it stabbed two holes, directly through her body!

"Hongchen!" Lin Xiao no longer cared about the pain in his body, and shouted loudly. The sharp pain in his body had spread to his whole body, making his limbs numb, and he couldn't even move a little finger, so he could only watch Hongchen being pierced through his heart by the long knife, and he couldn't support it anymore at the moment, and fell to the ground and passed out.

Hongchen fell, a mouthful of blood spurting out, staring at the blade sticking out of his heart, as if he couldn't believe that all this was true. The sharp pain from the piercing of her heart made her tremble all over, and the blade of the knife blocked the wound, causing blood obstruction, which increased her pain even more.

I saw Ye Wuru, who was dressed in a green shirt, sneering and slowly walking out of the shadows, came to Hongchen's side, and stretched out his hand to pull out the detachment knife inserted in her body. Hongchen raised her head and spurted out a mouthful of blood, which was lifted off the ground by the force of the other party's knife, and at the same time, a dazzling blood light appeared in her heart, as if it was about to dye everything around her red.

Ye Wuru picked up the ruthless blade on the ground, stepped forward to support the crumbling Ye Wuxin, and said, "Is there something?"

Ye Wuxin shook his head in shock: "It's okay...... Nothing serious. ”

"Let's go, now that we've decided to let them go, let's stop making any more troubles. Ye Wuxin followed them ruthlessly for a long time, and soon after Lin Xiao and Ye Wuxin came here through the Yin Soldier Dao with a teleportation talisman, he also arrived nearby. When he saw that Ye Wuxin was using the "pulse interception style" when he slapped Lin Xiao, he knew that his sister still planned to save a life for the kid of the Ziyang Divine Sect. Since he had promised not to interfere with his sister's decision, he didn't want to kill Lin Xiao anymore.

The brother and sister took the map, turned around and were about to leave, when they suddenly heard a weak female voice from behind: "Stop......"

The two turned their heads, only to see Hongchen standing up with his long sword and gritting his teeth, half of his body covered in blood. Ye ruthlessly looked at her staggering appearance and even struggled to stand, and sneered: "I know that you are a sword spirit, and if your heart is pierced, it will not kill you, but it will damage your soul and your cultivation will fall sharply." But if you force your hand again and hurt the origin of the spirit sword, the consequences will be unimaginable, you can weigh it yourself!"

Hongchen's face was gradually covered with dots of blood, and his pale face suddenly revealed a bright smile, which looked like people felt a palpitation. I saw that she took off her hand and let go of the long sword in her hand, but the spirit sword body did not fall to the ground, but floated into the air and hovered around her. Hongchen raised his arms, as if he was hugging something, and wisps of red light suddenly appeared on his body, and his feet floated off the ground.

Ye Wuru suddenly felt his heartbeat skip a beat, a frightened look suddenly appeared on his face, his pupils contracted in shock, and he said in disbelief: "Do you want to break the 'Sword Spirit Heart' and launch the 'Sword Death'?" Do you know that then you will be wiped out!"

Hongchen seemed to have expected her end, her face was full of a smile of peace and quietness, and she did not hesitate at all. The garment that had been conjured up on her body was gone, and a light like blood continued to spill out from her body, enveloping her in layers. Immediately after, a series of ethereal and ethereal voices came out of her mouth softly:

"The love is disturbed, and the dream of red dust is broken!"

As soon as the words fell, an extremely violent sword aura exploded from her body, sweeping like a stormy wave, instantly flooding all the places on the stone cliff except where Lin Xiao was. For a while, the four places were full of devastation, and when the sword qi was exhausted, Ye Wuru and Ye Wuxin were no longer in place, leaving only a bloodstain.

Red dust fell from the sky and fell directly to the ground. She looked at Lin Xiao, who was unconscious not far away, with a bleak smile on her face, the red light on her body had not yet dissipated, and blood was already gushing out of her mouth: "It seems that ...... I still can't protect you......"

...............

At this time, not far away by the dark river.

The sleeve of Ye Wuru's right hand had been completely shredded by the sword qi, and his arm was covered with dense wounds, blood was flowing everywhere, and it looked extremely bloody and terrifying. Ye Wuxin tore off the hem of his shirt, moistened it with water from the dark river, and bandaged him.

"I have only seen the power of the sword in ancient books, but I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes now, and it is even more terrifying than what is depicted in the book. Ye ruthlessly inhaled in pain, and said with a wry smile: "I still underestimated them, I knew that the sword spirit was terrifying, so I shouldn't have been able to block that move, and I almost put on an arm...... Fortunately, you used the 'teleportation charm' in time, otherwise you would have to use the left-handed knife in the future. ”

Ye Wuxin ignored him, and after a long time, he said, "Okay, I still talk so much when I am injured." We have to get out of here now, otherwise when reinforcements from the Purple Sun Divine Sect arrive, things will be even more troublesome. ”

"Well, let's go. Ye Wuru stood up with the knife from the people, turned around and walked up the dark river. Ye Wuxin followed behind him, didn't count a few steps, suddenly stopped his steps, and looked at the place where Lin Xiao and Hongchen were, his eyes were dim.

3.

The young man doesn't know the red dust, and the moon is cold and the stars are not lonely.

...............

Kunlun Mountain, Ziyang Divine Sect.

Lin Xiao sat leaning against the pillar of the pavilion, wiping the long sword in his hand with a coarse cloth, and Hongchen rested his head on his lap, curled up on the railing of the pavilion in a position that he thought was comfortable, and took a nap with his eyes closed. The warm sunlight sprinkled on the two people, and the picture appeared harmonious and warm.

"Don't rub it. Hongchen's eyes didn't open, and he opened his mouth and said: "I didn't go to the river to plop, nor did I roll in the mud, is it so dirty, it's worth you to wipe here for a long time." ”

"You don't understand this, I'll wipe you clean now, and in the future, when you go out beautifully, if you meet a favorite male sword spirit, when you go up to talk to someone, you won't feel ashamed!" Lin Xiao laughed.

Hongchen opened his eyes and looked at Lin Xiao playfully, as if he felt that his words were a little funny: "What am I looking for a male sword spirit for? I don't need to pass on the ancestry, besides, don't I still have you!"

"Huh!" Lin Xiao scoffed, "Who wants to be with you, do you still expect us to come up with a 'little swordsman' in the future?!"

Hongchen was amused by his words, she raised her head and looked at Lin Xiao from below, and said angrily: "Shaoxia, you have such an attitude towards girls, you will not find a partner in the future!"

"If you can't find it, you can't find it, anyway, I think it's good that people like this are free. Lin Xiao didn't take Hongchen's "cruel words" to heart, and then smiled slyly: "Besides, I can't find anyone else, isn't there still you!"

This time, it was Hongchen's turn to scoff: "Hey! I was still disgusted with me just now, why do you think of me again now? Besides, who wants to be with you, do you still expect us to come up with a 'little swordsman' in the future?!" She actually used Lin Xiao's sentence directly, without even changing a word.

Lin Xiao was so choked by her trick of "using the way of others to treat his body" that he couldn't speak, so he had to shake his head and smile bitterly: "Okay, I admit it, if I really don't want anyone in the future, it would be good to have you by my side." ”

Hongchen smiled evilly, and said deliberately: "You just broke my heart, so I don't trust you now, the ghost knows if you will throw me into a corner in the future, and I will find someone to be responsible for then!"

Lin Xiao looked at her with a treacherous smile on his face, and said, "Okay, then let's make a note today—in the future, whoever of us leaves each other behind first, then all the three meals a day for the rest of the other party's life will be made by him!"

Hongchen laughed, turned around, and stuck out his tongue at him, and said with a smile: "Who wants to make a note with you?

Lin Xiao patted her on the head, didn't say anything more, smiled and didn't answer, and continued to wipe the long sword in his hand. Hongchen was still lying on his lap, humming an unknown tune softly, bathing in the sunshine and gradually falling asleep.

...............

"Red Dust!

Lin Xiaoqiang endured the severe pain all over his body and got up and hugged Hongchen into his arms. After Hongchen launched the "Sword Death", the clothes on his body had been completely shredded by the sword qi, and at this moment, the clothes were not covered, almost no different from being naked. But Lin Xiao no longer had any messy thoughts, all he could feel now was Hongchen's fainter and fainter snort and heartbeat, and her body that was gradually becoming illusory.

Hongchen sighed, opened his eyes, and smiled weakly: "It's really noisy, I finally want to sleep...... Ahem...... Why do you have to be ...... Ahem...... I'm being disturbed by you!" Every few words she said would be accompanied by a violent cough, and the blood that kept overflowing from the corners of her mouth was shocking, and Lin Xiao's heart tingled.

"I told you a long time ago...... Cough...... Don't just believe in the people of the Demon Cult, you are...... Ahem...... You just don't stop talking to me. Hongchen coughed up blood and said intermittently, Lin Xiao watched in horror as her body was gradually becoming transparent, and the weight in her arms was getting lighter and lighter. All along, every time he encountered danger, Hongchen was always the first to stand in front of him, helping him solve all difficulties, which made him feel that this sword spirit of his would never be defeated. It wasn't until today that he realized that the person in his arms at this moment would also be injured, and might even die!

Hongchen didn't seem to feel the change in himself, and said while coughing to himself, his voice getting smaller and smaller: "Forget it, forget it, a stylish sword spirit like me...... Ahem...... Why don't you bother with a narcissistic and stupid mortal like you...... cough cough cough ...... It's just that I can't be with you anymore in the future, you must not ...... Ahem...... Like this time again...... Ahem, cough, cough!" Later, he coughed up blood and vomited, and he couldn't say it anymore.

Lin Xiao was trembling all over, he had never shown weakness or softness in the face of a life and death crisis, but at the moment he was crying like a helpless child. "You've said I'm a fool, and you still have to stay with me! What if one day I fall into someone else's trap again?!"

"You're really stupid to say you're a fool!" Hongchen scolded with a weak smile, "No kidding, I can't accompany you on some roads after all...... Ahem...... Do you remember our previous agreement......? Ahem...... I'm going to break my promise today!"

"What kind of are you talking about!" Lin Xiao couldn't stop crying, "Don't forget, the person who broke the agreement will have to cook for the rest of his life." Your cooking is so unpalatable, I don't want to ......"

Hongchen stretched out his gradually illusory fingers, pressed them against Lin Xiao's lips, and sealed the second half of his words: "From the moment you took me out of King's Landing, my life has been yours, and I am destined to one day definitely go one step ahead of you......! Ahem...... You have to live well, don't ...... Ahem...... Don't be stupid!"

Hongchen smiled slightly, the hand against Lin Xiao's lips suddenly drooped, and his eyes lost their lustre. Little by little, the red light lit up from her, like fireflies, slowly diffuse, and finally disappeared into the wind.

Until the last point of light disappeared, Lin Xiao's arms were empty. At the same time, a broken red ancient sword fell to the ground and fell into the dust.

"Ahh

Lin Xiao looked up to the sky and roared, and two lines of blood and tears flowed from his eyes. His hands clenched Hongchen's sword tightly, and the sharp blade cut into his palm, blood flowing. The next moment, the darkness in front of him enveloped everything, until he fell, his hands still clutching the two severed blades.

【To be continued】
