…

What is the most cherished thing in a person's life?

Different people have different answers to this question,

For Scrooge, money is all he has;

For a woman in love, the lover is everything to her;

And for her...

"Jiya, this way!"

In the elegantly decorated palace, a young man in a chair called out to the black-haired girl.

The man has smooth silver hair, an angular face, and although he has a soft smile, he can also feel an unusual majesty in some details.

The girl had just turned nine years old, her face was still childish, and her eyes were bright and pure.

Hearing the man's call at this moment, she walked over timidly.

"Don't be afraid, I just want you to take a look at this."

Seeing the girl approaching, the man smiled and pointed to the small wooden bed in front of him; The girl also looked into the small bed at the signal of the other party,

The nine-year-old girl was not very tall, and the railing of the cot was almost as high as her head, so she had to try her best to stand on her tiptoes, in order to erase the difference in height and see inside the guardrail.

Luckily, it worked, and she saw the contents.

Inside the guardrail was a soft velvet cushion, on which a pitch-black dome was sitting silently.

"What is this?"

The little girl asked in a coquettish voice, her eyes glittering, and it seemed that she was very interested in the black egg.

"This is the Demon Egg, she's my child and your cousin." The man reached out and gently touched the shell of the black egg, his eyes glowing with love.

"Sister? She looks so dark. The little girl said a little naïvely.

"Haha~" Hearing the girl's words, the man laughed heartily,

"It's really dark, but no matter how dark it is, she's also your sister, do you want to touch her?"

"Yes!"

The girl responded happily, curiosity or something, there is no shortage of children at this age.

Receiving an affirmative answer, the man bent down and stretched out his hand, and the squeaky nest of the girl carried her to the black egg.

The girl stretched out her little hand and touched it in fear, and immediately dodged away; After a moment's pause, she reached out again, but this time, she put both hands on top of the eggshell.

The surface of the black egg is densely covered with patterns, and it is three-dimensional to the touch. I don't know why, the girl can feel the throbbing of life from the black egg.

"Jiya, you are your sister, you have to take care of your sister in the future."

"Hmm!"

…

"Boom—"

"Da-da-"

The hall shook violently, and dust kept sprinkling, and two beautifully dressed black-haired women hurriedly ran in.

The older woman came to the small bed where the black egg was placed, took a blanket and wrapped the black egg, and handed it to the young woman beside her.

"Take the princess and go to her father!"

"What about Her Majesty?" The young woman asked.

"Someone has to block the god of light, and only I can do it here. Go away, and put the princess in the hands of your majesty!" ”

After the older woman finished speaking, she rushed out of the hanging window in a flash, turned into a black dragon covering the sky, and walked away against the clouds of light floating in the distance.

The young woman could only look at the dragon shadow unwillingly, turned around and disappeared into the half-collapsed castle...

…

"Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, this is a trap, you can't go!"

The young woman who was half-kneeling on the ground said eagerly to the silver-haired man in front of her,

The silver-haired man calmly glanced at the black egg in his arms, and said lightly:

"Anna is a person who is cherished, and she can't give up even if there is even the slightest possibility. Ziya, you also have someone you cherish, if she is in danger, will you give up? ”

Will she give up?

Will you give up...

No!

"Luna, take Your Highness away."

"But you..."

"Let's go! Immediately! Xin Ziya's voice was as cold as ice.

Luna opens her mouth, but eventually says nothing.

She glanced at Xin Jiya, picked up the black egg, turned her head and ran;

"Don't want to run away!"

The old but powerful voice sounded, Sha Liwan's eyes stared, and he leaned down,

Under the urging of divine power, he instantly crossed a distance of dozens of meters, raised the golden-red flame sword, and slashed towards Luna, who had just run two steps, with the sound of the howling wind.

This sword condensed the huge energy of the holy level, and before the blade could be slashed, the wind pressure had already fallen.

Caught off guard, Luna was immediately crushed to the ground, and the fire sword slashed at an even faster speed.

"Bell!"

At this critical juncture, Xin Jiya clenched the Sunset Sword with both hands, stabbed it diagonally, and finally held the Crossfire Sword and saved Luna.

Her already serious injuries worsened again, her right hand, which had been twisted earlier, had been completely broken, and her feet had been pressed into the ground with tremendous force.

But she ignored the injuries,

While defusing this attack, Xin Jiya slashed hard, and the double-edged sword immediately turned into a short sword.

The still intact right hand with a short sword quickly stabbed into Shali Wan's heart.

This sword almost encompassed the sword intent of Xin Jiya's whole body, and even Sha Liwan didn't dare to take it hard,

He threw his body back, crossed his swords, and leaped backwards in the direction of Xin Ziya's attack, ready to dodge the sharp stab.

But Xin Jiya suddenly retracted the hilt of the sword and turned the stab into a sharpening.

The sword qi came out of the sword and smashed head-on at the soles of Sha Liwan's feet,

"Bang!"

Large handfuls of dry earth were raised, obscuring the view of the surroundings.

"Let's go!"

At a command, Shinjiya immediately raised her sword and rushed into the mist, and Luna quickly got up, holding the black egg and running away.

"Uhhh

A flash of golden light hit Luna, who had just taken off, knocking her flying, and the black egg left her embrace and fell on the mound on the side.

In the distance, Lawrence's divine book converged the golden light,

It seems that he has also passed the period of weakness of using the Holy Gate and has regained his ability to fight.

"Whew!"

The strong wind rolled up, blowing away the smoke and dust, revealing Sha Liwan who was holding two swords.

The Sunset Sword was stuck upside down, and Xin Jiya, who had been cut off by the waist, fell into the dirt pit, and there was still green smoke all over her body—it was a sign of being burned by the light energy.

"Humph! Demons, but that's it! ”

Glancing coldly at Xin Jiya who fell to the ground, Sha Liwan walked towards the black egg that fell on the mound,

He wants to see what this group of demons is desperately protecting.

But as soon as he took two steps, his ankle was grabbed.

"Huh?"

Sha Liwan lowered his head in confusion,

Xin Jiya, who was covered in green smoke and his cloak was scattered, and only half of his body was left, holding Sha Liwan's ankle with his charred left hand, and his eyes revealed this unyielding thought.

"Aren't you dead yet? The life of the necromancer is really tenacious. ”

Sha Liwan looked at the mutilated body at his feet in amazement, and raised the black cross sword, ready to completely end this haunting necromancer.

"Knock knock!"

Suddenly, there was a thump, as if it had penetrated deep into the soul, and Shaliwan's heart twitched violently under the sound.

The arm in which he carried his sword also fell under the pull of this sharp pain.

"Knock knock!!"

Before Sha Liwan could recover his strength, another stronger knock sound came,

This time, though, he also found his target to make a knocking sound.

"That's..."

Sha Liwan clutched his violently throbbing heart, staring at the black egg on the mound, his eyes full of shock...
