Peerless elegance

With the fall of George Wilson, the "poet of the singing wind", the first new S-class magician appeared.

Matsushita smoked, the daughter of Konosuke Matsushita, the patriarch of the Matsushita family.

Although the ranking was only the hundredth in the last seat, the impact of the achiever effect was so significant that a large number of enthusiastic but self-sufficient A-class magicians jumped from the suspended stands to the ring one after another, challenging other S-class magicians.

There seemed to be an invisible tacit understanding, and no one took the initiative to challenge the exhausted Matsushita, and Liu Ye felt very strange about this phenomenon, because the rules did not prohibit it.

"Because magicians take morality very seriously, much more than you. There is an old legend that if a magician does too many immoral things, his magic will fail, his magic will get out of control, and his soul will be imprisoned in a dark space to be tortured endlessly. Shilan explained.

"Uh......" Liu Ye smiled dumbly.

Sounds like a ghost story to trick kids...... But looking at Shi Lan's serious face, she seems to really believe in this legend......

"Hey, what's the deal with that sympathetic look on your face? Do the magicians basically believe in this legend, right? Do you suspect I'm lying to you?"

"Okay, okay......" Liu Ye pushed away the girl's face that was about to come to his ear, "Ouyang Gu, what do you think of this legend?"

"Me?" Ouyang Gu smiled slightly, his sunglasses reflective, "I don't think anyone hates a legend that admonishes them not to do bad things." ”

Liu Ye rolled his eyes at him, doesn't this answer mean that he didn't say anything?

However, there is really no one who has challenged it.

He looked at the empty No. 100 ring, Panasonic smoked pan sat in the middle of the ring to rest, the surface of the ring full of cracks was slowly recovering automatically, compared to other rings where the battle was in full swing, this can be said to be a rare pure land.

Can moral restraint really be that strong?

Tang Yin, who suddenly jumped off the No. 74 ring, interrupted his thoughts, and in a jaw-dropping, the eldest sister with a ponytail walked up to the No. 40 ring step by step.

"Is that you?" the leader of Ring 40, a middle-aged man dressed in black, looked at the young challenger, "I remember, you are Qingshuang's child." ”

"My name is Tang Yin. Tang Yin saluted him respectfully, "Please also give me advice." ”

Tang Yin...... Is it ......" The middle-aged man in black read the name, his eyes showing sentimentality mixed with nostalgia, "Do you know who I am?"

"The strongest free magician, who does not belong to any institution, organization, or family, and wanders alone in the world, Lin Ya, last appeared in the rating conference five years ago, and then drifted away after defeating the challenger in one move. Tang Yin said calmly, "I have admired the name for a long time." ”

"That's all you know. The middle-aged man in black slowly closed his eyes, "Time flies so fast." ”

The years pass like a white horse, in the blink of an eye, fifteen years.

He still remembers when he was very young, when he was still at the Occult Sun Magic School, and he competed with a guy named Tang Mingzi all day long? No matter what course it is, two people are going to compete for second place? Whoever has more second place can blow for a while, and they can still press each other in the next semester.

As for why it was the second place and not the first place? It was because the first place in the Occultation School of Magic at that time always belonged to one person.

Shen Qingshuang.

Anyone compared to her? are not good enough.

Obviously younger than him and Tang Mingzi, but he was able to skip a grade to their grade in a row? also entered the same class as Tang Mingzi and made the front and back tables.

Less than a month? Shen Qingshuang's magical attainments had already reached the point where he could go toe-to-toe with him and Tang Mingzi. Lin Ya remembered that Tang Mingzi was unconvinced at first? It wasn't until he was so frightened by Qingshuang's trick in flight class that he almost peed his pants, and he completely gave up the idea of competing with Qingshuang.

Over time, the three became best friends and talked about everything? Everything? Everything is so lucky.

Until that day, it was snowing all over the sky.

It was the day before graduation, a snowy night that even magicians would find a little cold.

Lin Ya and Tang Mingzi fought.

The reason is very simple, Lin Ya decided to give up the opportunity to enter the Magic Association and wander the world alone.

Tang Mingzi couldn't understand his reason for doing this? But no matter how he persuaded Lin Ya, he didn't show the slightest wavering? Tang Mingzi, who was angry, decided to use his fists to make him sober up.

So the two made an appointment, after removing all the magic? Two people in the snowy square, like two ordinary people? With fists and legs? Decided the winner? Whoever wins will listen to whomever wins.

That night, it was Lin Ya who won.

Tang Mingzi lay in the white snow with a blue nose and swollen face, panting as Lin Ya drifted away in the moonlight.

This is the last time the two will meet, for Tang Mingzi.

Since then, Tang Mingzi and Shen Qingshuang have entered the special organization of the Asian Magic Association, "Century Dawn".

And Lin Ya disappeared from people's sight, and the once famous fighting genius has since disappeared.

"Senior Lin Ya, please advise. Tang Yin took out the jade flute and put it on her lips.

The figure of the young woman in front of her and the figure in her memory gradually overlapped.

"It's like. Lin Ya smiled slightly, "Let's do it." ”

The flute sounds, and the full moon appears.

The clear light sprinkled down, shining on the quietly standing Lin Ya, reflecting the oblique shadow.

"Qingshuang's technique......" Lin Ya felt the array change in the moonlight, it was a technique that he was too familiar to be familiar with, "This alone can't defeat me." ”

Walking out of the moonlight unhurriedly, the tried-and-true power of stagnation had no effect on Lin Ya at all.

The moon behind Tang Yin became brighter and brighter, and pieces of crystalline fragments grew on the jade flute in her hand, condensing into an amethyst long sword.

She snapped her eyes open, their eyes glowing blue.

Lin Ya lowered his eyes, raised his left hand, and one after another thick rock walls rose from the ground, exuding an indestructible aura.

At the same time, in his right hand, a turquoise wand emerged, and fire and wind intertwined in front of him into an orange-yellow blade.

"Moon Twinkle. ”

The full moon behind him shattered in an instant, and a purple crescent moon was reflected in Tang Yin's eyes.

The sword is out, and the shadow follows.

All was silent.

The amethyst pieces flew away, and the long sword returned to the appearance of a jade flute, gradually disappearing in Tang Yin's hands.

Standing slenderly, behind her, dozens of rock walls broke in the middle in an instant, turning into points of light in the sky with a rumbling sound, and the blades intertwined with fire and wind also exploded with a bang, and Lin Ya's body fell backwards weakly.

"You can't win against me. ”

The girl sitting on the roof said with a nonchalant attitude that Lin Ya absolutely couldn't accept, as the recognized king of battle at the Sun Occultation Magic School, it was the first time that she was looked down upon by a girl younger than herself.

"What, looking at your unconvinced face, do you want to try it with me?"

Try it, just try it.

Children's fights are all about fighting, and they don't even need a clear reason, just because no one is convinced.

Before Lin Ya started, he was thinking about how to trim the face of this little girl who didn't know the height of the sky, but he didn't expect that he was the one who was plastic surgery in the end.

He lost, and for the first time in his life, he had lost a battle.

From that day on, he will always remember the figure with his back to him in the moonlight, and he will always remember the peerless sword.

It didn't take long for the name of this stunningly glamorous girl to reach his ears.

Shen Qingshuang, a cold-sounding name, does not match her personality at all.

At least not at the time.

Now, the same sword, the same peerless elegance, the same countenance.

It's just that in this world, I'm the only one left.

Two lines of tears flowed from the corners of Lin Ya's eyes.

Fifteen years ago, he didn't learn of the two deaths first, and the Magic Society secretly sealed the files of the incident.

It wasn't until one day seven years ago that he was drinking in a tavern frequented by magicians, and he heard the two people at the next table talking about the decline of the once strongest dark part, Century Dawn, that he knew that Mingzi and Qingshuang were no longer there, and there were no bones left.

There is not even a place to worship.

"Offended, senior. Tang Yin saluted him with apologies in her eyes, "I'm sorry, this ranking is very important to me." ”

"No, you deserve it. Lin Ya staggered to his feet, and looked at the thirty-nine rings in front of him with a light smile, "I think, you ...... cough cough cough ...... There is strength to impact their position. ”

"The seniors are overrated. ”

"No, they ...... And not that strong. ”

"......" Tang Yin didn't answer, just lowered his head slightly.

"Ahem...... Can I ask...... Why are you fighting me?" Lin Ya wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "Although it's just a move, I can see that you don't have any energy left. What kind of surgery...... It's a lot of a burden on your body......"

"Because ......," Tang Yin's body shook slightly, "I want to protect the others in Century Dawn." Century Dawn is looked down upon...... It's been a long time. From all S-class to only one S-class, there is a huge gap between this...... If it weren't for Director Yan, there might have been no century dawn in this world. ”

"That's right...... Protect it......" Lin Ya staggered and walked under the ring, "If you can do it, you must be able to do it, you can do it." ”

"Why the hell are you giving up. After being punched hard by Lin Ya on the nose, Tang Mingzi knelt on one knee in the snow and asked him while wiping his nosebleed, "Why! Why don't you say it no matter how you ask you!"

"I have my reasons. Lin Ya turned his back to him, and the snowflakes fell on his hair and shoulders one by one, turning into snow and flowing into the neck socket, just as cold as his tone, "I don't need you to point fingers." ”

"Fingering, you say I'm pointing fingers?" Tang Mingzi rushed up and punched Lin Ya in the back of the heart, but he easily dodged sideways, and Mingzi, who had lost his center of gravity, fell into the snow.

He smacked the ground angrily: "Are you satisfied? I lost, and I admit that I am no match for you." I'm not going to fight with you!

"I'm not trying to win you. ”

"Then what do you want? Lin Ya! What do you want to do?"

"I, I have one thing I have to do. ”

"Then why don't you tell me and Qingshuang? Aren't we best friends? We can help you!"

"......" Lin Ya took a silent step.

"Lin Ya!" Tang Mingzi hugged his left foot, "Qingshuang also wants you to stay." ”

"Qingshuang...... Lin Ya's face showed a flash of pain, but then he regained his indifference, "No, I must leave." ”

"Why?"

"You've asked this question many times, and you've been asking the same question over and over again all night. Lin Ya never looked at Tang Mingzi's eyes, "I also answered many times. I have one thing I have to do. ”

"What the hell is it that makes you have to go?"

"One thing, you can do without you and Qingshuang. Lin Ya shook off Tang Mingzi's hand and walked into the distance, his voice coming intermittently in the wind and snow, "Don't ...... Try...... Find me ......."

"Lin Ya!" Tang Mingzi chased after him, and his body suddenly burst out with amazing magical power, and his speed suddenly surpassed the speed of sound.

"Smack!" Lin Ya turned around incredulously and punched Tang Mingzi's right cheek who rushed over.

"Woo-" Tang Mingzi slid out of the snow for more than ten meters, letting out a painful moan.

"You're too weak. Lin Ya said coldly, "Even I can easily defeat you, let alone Qingshuang." ”

"Hmph, what do you want to explain...... Tang Mingzi shook his feet and stood up, "Since you are stronger than me, then you should be more qualified to stay than me, why give up the quota to that guy surnamed Ouyang!"

"I don't want to explain anything, it's just that you are so weak, when the time comes, when the time comes, not only will you not be able to protect Qingshuang, but you will even have to rely on Qingshuang to protect you. ”

"I'm going to ...... You can protect her. ”

"That's good, hurry up and get stronger, I'm leaving. After that will be indefinite. ”

"Lin Ya!"

The figure in the wind and snow waved his hand and never looked back.

"Seniors. Tang Yin stopped Lin Ya at the moment before he left the ring, "Do you know my parents?"

"......?" Lin Ya slowly turned his head, revealing a handsome side face, "Did they mention me?"

"No...... No. It's just that you mentioned my mother's name just now, so ......"

"No, it's normal. Lin Ya looked back and smiled, like a warm spring sun, "I have had a relationship with them." ”

"One-sided relationship?"

"Yes, one side. I guess they don't remember me anymore. ”

"They must remember. Tang Yin said with certainty.

"Oh?"

"People as good as Lin Ya's predecessors, even if they have only met once, they will remember it. ”

"Maybe. Lin Ya stepped out of the ring, "But that's all in the past." ”
