"It was really dangerous, I'm sorry for hurting you so badly. ”

Zhao Mingyue carried the weak Qi Huanrou on her back and slowly walked towards the top of the mountain.

"You don't have to blame yourself, if I hadn't resisted that blow myself, I wouldn't have ended up like this. ”

Qi Huanrou slightly raised the face that was hanging on Zhao Mingyue's shoulder, and said softly.

"But if it weren't for your elixir, I'd be dead. ”

"What's the matter, the girl is too modest, and my medicine can only barely treat some skin injuries, mainly because the girl herself is strong. ”

Feeling the damp heat coming from the back of her ear, Zhao Mingyue actually looked a little flustered for the first time, and a shallow flush appeared on her cheeks.

"Thank you. ”

Qi Huanrou pressed her lips to Zhao Mingyue's ears, and the hot breath exhaled from her mouth gently blew onto the back of Zhao Mingyue's ears, making his body tremble.

"No... Nothing more... ”

Feeling the wonderful touch, Zhao Mingyue's heart throbbed, and the words in her mouth became fragmented. But when he turned his head to look at Qi Huanrou, he saw that she was already asleep.

Listening to the steady snort of the girl on her back, Zhao Mingyue smiled unconsciously, turned her head and continued to march towards the Huashan Sword Sect on the top of the mountain.

"Childe, please stay. ”

If this young man hadn't taken the initiative to speak, maybe Zhao Mingyue wouldn't have been able to detect his existence no matter how he searched for him, as if he was part of this environment.

The straw sandals were stepping on the mossy stone bricks, and the Mai was swaying in the breeze, but he didn't even make a sound, and the young man had already come to Zhao Mingyue.

"I think this girl's injuries are still very serious, can you let me take a look?"

The boy smiled kindly, as warm as the sunlight in spring. However, a cold sweat broke out behind Zhao Mingyue.

"Who the hell are you?How did you just appear?Why didn't I detect your existence?!"

Zhao Mingyue looked at the young man in straw sandals and linen clothes vigilantly, and tensed his body.

"Childe doesn't need to be nervous, he is just an ordinary medicine picker, because most of the places where he goes to collect medicine are vicious places where monsters are rampant, so he can practice the art of hiding this body. ”

The boy smiled and took out a jade bottle from the cloth pocket he was carrying on his shoulder.

"Although the blood of the Wolf King of Mobei has a miraculous effect on the treatment of internal injuries, it is difficult to dredge the muscles and veins after repair, and the girl's soul has already exhausted at this time, if it is not treated, I am afraid that it will leave hidden dangers in the future. ”

The Mai boy took the unconscious Qi Huanrou from Zhao Mingyue's back, and told Zhao Mingyue about her injuries. However, hearing the young man's words, Zhao Mingyue not only did not let go of her heart, but even her expression became more serious.

"Why do you know that I fed her the blood of the Wolf King?"

The young man stopped his movements, raised his head and looked directly at Zhao Mingyue, and smiled, looking harmless to humans and animals.

"Zhao Mingyue, the prince of Zhao Kingdom, the descendant of the wolf king bloodline of the Mobei wolf clan, as a person who has traveled all over Kyushu, I must know your identity. What's more, among the elixirs I know, only the blood of the wolf king has the effect of quickly repairing the body, so it is natural to guess it. Don't worry, if I want to take advantage of the danger of the two of you, I'll already do it. I'm just trying to help you. ”

Although Zhao Mingyue didn't want to believe this young man in Mai of unknown origin, he nodded helplessly, after all, he also knew the flaws of the Wolf King's blood.

The young man smiled, took out a pill from the porcelain bottle in his hand and stuffed it into Qi Huanrou's mouth.

"This medicine will work later, and I ask Brother Zhao to wait again, and then he will take the first step. ”

The boy stood up, and after some explanation, he walked towards the end of the mountain road.

"Are you really here to participate in this Sword Shrine Trial?"

Zhao Mingyue looked at the young man's back and shouted to him.

"Of course. We're all here for that sword, aren't we?"

The boy stopped, turned his back to the two behind him, and replied lightly.

"Then why did you save Qi Huanrou, wouldn't it be better to have one less competitor?"

Zhao Mingyue asked with some puzzlement, he really couldn't understand why this young man wanted to help Qi Huanrou.

"After seeing that monster-like power, you still haven't figured it out - we can only win against those monsters if we join forces - so I hope you won't hold me back. ”

The young man's figure suddenly disappeared without a trace, and only the voice still echoed in the deep mountains and dense forests.

Zhao Mingyue hugged Qi Huanrou, but before she could react, she looked at the place where the young man disappeared blankly.

"It's him。。。。。 Han Duyan. ”

A weak voice came out of Qi Huanrou's mouth, causing Zhao Mingyue to wake up from a state of shock.

"You're awake!"

Zhao Mingyue looked at Qi Huanrou, who was ruddy and in an improved state in her arms, and a look of joy appeared on her face, and on the other hand, she was also amazed by the medicine of the young man in Mai.

"By the way, you know him, and he's the prince of Korea?"

"Hmm. He is the crown prince of Korea, the chief disciple of the Medicine King Sect and the Night Shadow Sect, and Han Duyan, who is known as the medicine picker. I met him in Jingzhou before and had a spar. ”

Qi Huanrou thought back to the battle that made her unforgettable, and her face couldn't help but feel a little more solemn.

"He's strong. ”

Qi Huanrou had that discussion in advance, but he hastily avoided talking about it, and after leaving only a brief evaluation, he didn't say more.

But even if it is just such a brief evaluation, Zhao Mingyue will not underestimate Na Han Duyan in his heart. can be given a strong evaluation by Qi Huanrou, so how can Han Duyan be a person with ordinary talents?

"That... What is it!?"

Suddenly, the sky was suddenly dyed blood-red, and a figure with blood-colored wings rose from the top of the mountain into the sky. This terrifying scene made Zhao Mingyue's body tremble with fear, and large drops of sweat rolled down the surface of his skin.

"That's ... Chu Mohua... ”

Qi Huanrou looked at the blood-red point of light and calmly said the person's name.

"What... Is this Chu Mohua's strength? . . This is at least to the Open Heaven Realm, right!?"

Zhao Mingyue was speechless in shock at this time, only fragments of syllables popped out of his lips. Just now, he had already seen the monster-like and powerful Yan Zi Kite, and he had seen the power that made people desperate, but at this time, an even more terrifying power was displayed in front of him.

"Miss Qi, why don't we go home? Don't lose your life for that sword. ”

Zhao Mingyue stared at the person in the sky, holding Qi Huanrou's arms and couldn't help but tremble.

"Giggles. ”

Under such circumstances, Qi Huanrou actually covered her mouth and chuckled.

"You, you say you want to run away, but in your heart you are eager to try, it's okay, if you want to challenge your limits, go ahead. ”

Qi Huanrou put down her hand, looked directly into Zhao Mingyue's eyes, and said lightly.

"You've seen it through. But can you hold on?"

Zhao Mingyue looked away with some embarrassment, he originally wanted to pretend to be scared and send Qi Huanrou down the mountain, and then go to the Huashan Sword Sect alone, but he didn't expect Qi Huanrou to guess his thoughts.

"It's okay, I want to try my limits too... Challenge those invincible monsters. ”

Both of them raised their heads at the same time, looking at the light that stained the sky red, with fearless smiles on their faces.

。。。

"Give me your body and forget about the pain. You will never have to face the ugly world again, and I will take revenge on your behalf ... ”

A woman who looked exactly like Chu Mohua stretched out her hands behind her back and slowly pulled her into her arms.

"No, no, no... Don't!!!"

Chu Mohua wailed weakly, but his body couldn't move at all.

"I don't want to be swallowed up in darkness like this, I don't want my own hands to be covered in blood anymore, don't let this go on!

Chu Mohua roared in pain, his voice was so helpless, with a faint whimper.

"It's okay, it's going to be over, you don't have to suffer all the pain and suffering anymore. ”

Comfort, perhaps these words can be called. However, after Chu Mohua heard these words, his crying became more and more intense. She knew what a desperate way she would face if she didn't resist. At that point, she will no longer be the person she is now, but something that even she can't imagine.

A pair of soft arms stretched out from Chu Mohua's back and hugged her tightly. But Chu Mohua didn't feel the slightest warmth at this time—only the cold that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, as if he had fallen into an abyss. The temperature on Chu Mohua's body quickly dissipated, and the cry for help in his mouth became weaker and weaker.

"Help... I... ”

The last call squeezed out from between Chu Mohua's already white lips. However, she knew that no one could answer her pleas for help, because no one knew the demon who had always lived in her heart, and no one could hear her heart.

Chu Mohua's dilated eyes gradually became godless, because her personality was eating away little by little—Chu Mohua, the real her, was disappearing little by little—and then, being replaced by that monster.

But at this moment, the arms that hugged Chu Mohua suddenly became warm, warming her cold body.

"I'm sorry to have left you alone all this time. Now, let me help you, you will never be alone again. ”

All along, Chu Mohua has been standing alone, even if he is covered with bruises, he is resisting. No one knew how tired she was – not even herself – just struggling on the brink of collapse. She was tired, but she was going to keep fighting—at least for the sake of those who loved her—and she kept repeating it to herself. But she still longs for someone to accompany her and help her.

Now, listening to the warm male voice, Chu Mohua closed his eyes with peace of mind.

"It's so warm. ”

。。。

"Hmm... ”

Gongsun Tianshou slowly sat up from the bed, holding his head in great pain with his right hand, and the sweat had already wet his thin clothes.

"You're awake. ”

The bright moonlight shine through the oiled paper on the window and fell on Yu Qinglian's white and tender face who was sitting quietly by the bed, making her look as flawless and beautiful as a fairy. Yu Qinglian looked at Gongsun Tianshou who woke up, grinned happily, and laughed.

"Ahh Well, Sister Yu, this is. What's going on, I... Why are you here? I remember that we should be at the mountain gate of the Sword Sect? Why did I suddenly come to bed?"

Gongsun Tianshou had just woken up, his mind was still a little lucid, and he was stammering when he spoke. Gongsun Tianshou rubbed his hair with some trouble, suddenly thought of something, and asked Yu Qinglian excitedly.

"Sister Yu, how is the duel between you and Chu Mohua, are you not injured?"

"Huh?"

After hearing Gongsun Tianshou's words, Yu Qing rippled for a moment, but immediately laughed and scolded him.

"You're still like this. At all times, I care about others the most, and I don't ask why I'm in a coma - and why don't you trust me so much, since I said it's okay, then you don't need to think about it - of course I won!"

"Sister Yu is still powerful, you can defeat that Chu Mohua is so strong-but also, why am I in a coma?"

Gongsun Tianshou finally remembered his own question and asked Yu Qinglian in puzzlement.

"The reason why you are in a coma, I believe you know it yourself, after all, so much information is pouring into your brain, even anyone can bear it. ”

Yu Qinglian smiled, even if Gongsun Tianshou didn't tell her anything, she still knew everything about him.

"Well, that... ”

"Shhhh ”

Recalling those strange information, Gongsun Tianshou was big for a while, and subconsciously wanted to ask Yu Qinglian what was going on. But as soon as he was about to speak, Yu Qinglian stopped him and signaled him to silence.

"It's not safe here, and some things should be talked about later. Now, let's think about the sword mound trial, this is the ultimate goal of our trip - to get the immortal sword forged by the founding ancestor of the Huashan Sword Sect - tomorrow tomorrow, we will enter the sword mound. ”

"What? Tomorrow? Did I sleep for two days?"

Gongsun Tianshou recalled the words of the self-proclaimed Great Elder of the Huashan Sword Sect before, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"No, that sword mound was opened in advance. ”

Yu Qinglian's voice suddenly became heavy, as if something terrible was about to happen.

After hearing this, Gongsun Tianshu also fell silent, and the oppressive atmosphere engulfed the entire room. They all knew how terrible that was about to happen.

。。。

"I really don't know what the current realm lord thinks. Wan Ling Nian, Di Ling Killing Thought, these things should obviously be completely eliminated, but he wants to use them in vain!?"

The one in Su Qingyu's heart kept muttering, complaining about things that only the two of them knew.

"Okay, okay, they must have their reasons for doing this, and you don't have to be angry. Tell me what to do next?"

Su Qingyu comforted her and wanted her to stop losing her temper about it.

"Well, then, you must protect yourself. Even if I don't know what they're all thinking about, in the future, the head-to-head duel between the Heaven and Earth Alliance and the Void Breaking Sect will definitely be related to the future of this Heavenly Hung Realm. And we can only avoid being affected ourselves. ”

Listening to these words, Su Qingyu looked out the window with some concern, she wouldn't worry about her safety, but she cared about the place where she lived, and she wanted to accompany him and see the scenery he dreamed of.

"Well, don't think about it, he's not that simple, trust him. Now, all we have to do is protect ourselves ... And then, waiting for the future ... Sooner or later, the day will come when we can change this hopeless future in our own power ... ”
