Cold ice can't break the water, and dead wood can meet spring again.

The red clouds on the horizon sounded like the trumpet of fate, blowing the last sound, quietly ending everything here.

"It can't be...... How could this be...... "I can't accept the reality in front of me, I feel like I see a door of fate closing to me, and Mo Qifeng is on the other side of the door, no matter how I shout, he doesn't have any reaction, I desperately ran towards the door as if I was crazy, but the gate that seemed so close to me felt so far away, time disappeared in front of me like flowing water, and the door in front of me slowly closed until I could no longer see Mo Qifeng's smiling face, He smiled and disappeared to the other side of the door.

"Cheng Yin, are you alright?" I don't know when, Li Ruina came to my side, she looked at me worriedly, with a trace of sadness in her eyes: "It's all my ...... to blame"

"It's not your fault, it's all me, it's me who didn't protect the safety of Qinqi, calligraphy and painting, it's my ......" I clenched my fists sadly: "It was I who brought them to the battlefield of Yiling Pass, and I let them participate in this battle, but I was not able to protect them, it's all my fault." "I looked up to the sky and roared, the flames of anger burning in my heart, and I lifted the 'heavy iron sword' and rushed towards Gan Ning.

"Cheng Yin, don't be impulsive, you're not his opponent." Cui Li's shouts came from afar, but at this time, I didn't want to think about anything, I just wanted to use my 'heavy iron sword' to fulfill Mo Qifeng's last wish.

As soon as I came to the place where Gan Ning and Wang Ningmo were fighting, I was stopped by Wang Ningmo. I looked at him, and it was a calm face, no anger to be seen, no sorrow to be seen, and yet I saw tears running down his face, and under his cold words, there was a volcanic burst of anger, but it was all hidden in his calm exterior. If it weren't for subtle observation, no one would have been able to find that Wang Ningmo's seemingly unruly appearance still had such a soft heart.

"Shaoxia, it's not your business, Gan Ning will be defeated by me, please don't interfere." Wang Ningmo's words still carry the usual arrogance. And that arrogance is like a never-say-die swordsman, and the cold blade is like the persistence between his eyebrows.

"Wang Ningmo, now is not the time for personal heroism, this person in front of you once seriously injured Fang Shuran, and now he has taken Mo Qifeng's life in front of you, what we have to do at this time is to defeat him at any cost, not only for you, for me, for all of us, but also for the seriously injured Fang Shuran and the fallen Mo Qifeng." I almost roared as I uttered this, and it was as if an uncontrollable anger was burning in my heart.

"Shaoxia, you don't know, I did this for Fang Shuran and Mo Qifeng."

"For them! It is for their sake that I should knock down Gan Ning in front of me faster and minimize our damage, otherwise you may be the next to fall, Wang Ningmo. "I interrupted Wang Ningmo's words just now, I couldn't listen to anything at this time, I didn't need to explain, I didn't need to apologize, what I wanted was to stab the long sword in my hand into his body like Gan Ning just now.

"Young man." Wang Ningmo shouted in a low voice, "The Sword Sect where Qinqi, calligraphy and painting are located once had such a rule, presumably you should have heard of it, Shaoxia." If there is any dispute between the disciples in the sect, they can send an invitation to the other party to duel, and there is only one condition, that is, only the two disciples who have disputes can participate in the duel, in other words, it is a one-on-one fair battle, no matter which side loses, there can be no excuse, so this battle can only be completed by me alone. As he spoke, Wang Ningmo had already raised the sword in his hand to Gan Ning, and the blade of the sword was pointed directly at Gan Ning.

"Rat, I can't see that you still have a bit of backbone, it's a pity that incompetent people always like to talk big, originally the two of you worked together and had the possibility of defeating me, but you gave up such kindness, and I won't show mercy." Gan Ning laughed, and his laughter was filled with endless provocation and ridicule.

"Then you can see if I am the incompetent person you say I am!" After speaking, Wang Ningmo rushed towards Gan Ning with his sword, and gently waved the "Heavenly Pavilion Sword" with his left hand a few times, soared into the air, and stabbed at Gan Ning quickly.

"Carving insect skills, this ability also wants the life of the general, it's extremely stupid." Gan Ning waved the spear in his right hand and easily ejected the flying "Heavenly Pavilion Sword" a few meters away, but at the same time, the sword in Wang Ningmo's hand suddenly changed into a sharp spear and stabbed at Gan Ning's waist.

Gan Ning, who had just flicked off the "Heavenly Pavilion Sword", didn't expect that Wang Ningmo, who was still a few steps away from him, would actually transform into a spear, instantly increasing his attack range. Gan Ning let out a loud shout, and all turned sideways to avoid the spear's attack. The spear left a long mark on his armor, and if it wasn't for Gan Ning's quick enough reaction, he would have fallen under Wang Ningmo's spear at this time.

"How is it possible, even the rarest Phantom Xuan Sword can only transform into three different blades at most, and you have more than three, this is absolutely impossible, who are you?" Gan Ning looked at Wang Ningmo in front of him with round eyes.

"The general is a person who practices martial arts, and the world's blades say that their origin is no higher than Wu Yue." Wang Ningmo changed the spear in his hand back into the previous sword, and continued: "Wu Yue's sword is the best in the world, this Phantom Xuan Sword in my hand was cast in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, adhering to the essence of heaven and earth, and with the majesty of the sun and the moon, I have gathered a variety of blades in this sword, so this Phantom Sword in my hand is the first of all Phantom Swords, unparalleled in the world." ”

"Joke, what if you have Regulus in your hand? An incompetent person, even if he has the most powerful blade in the world, is still a useless person, how dare he speak out in front of the general. "Gan Ning held the spear in both hands, and slashed towards Wang Ningmo with the courage of ten thousand invincibles, Wang Ningmo felt dangerous and waved the 'Tianxuan Sword' with his left hand to gallop in front of him, but he never thought that he was shot down by Gan Ning's spear and fell to the ground and was deeply sunken in the ground.

"Rats, with the power of this general. Who among you can bear it? Today I will return you one by one to the dust like this sword. "The clouds on the horizon are magnificent, and it seems that I am also watching this thrilling duel, I look up at the blue sky, I don't know whether to smile or grieve, the battle in front of me is extremely tragic.
