Chapter 49 (The so-called dignity)
Let's talk about Zhao Xintong's side.
She searched for Qi Xiaoxuan and the others along the bloodstains, but found that the place where the two stayed was actually the Demon Master Inn where she had been defeated the day before yesterday. In the complicated mood, there was some clarity: yes, yes, they came from afar, naturally for this ring match, in order to let the shopkeeper of the Demon Master Inn create a magic weapon for them, and they fouled themselves, and naturally Huzi won the victory......
When she thought of Huzi, she thought of the scabbed wound she saw on Huzi's shoulder tonight, and then thought of her father's hundred steps through Yang and the blood of that person, and then put Fang Cai's cranky thoughts behind her, and just wanted to find that person quickly. As for what to do when she found him, she had no time to think about it.
Carrying the short gun in his hand, Zhao Xintong broke straight into the gate of the Demon Master Inn.
The little guys at the door of the inn were talking and laughing, but suddenly a woman with a cloak rushed in recklessly, and they were startled, and at first glance they thought it was a female ghost. After Zhao Xintong got closer and made sure that it was a ghost or not, she hurriedly pounced on both sides, "What are you going to do!", shouting and trying to stop her, "This is the Demon Master's Inn, idlers have to break in!"
"I'm not an idler!" Zhao Xintong was anxious, only to feel that everyone in the world should make way for herself, these two little guys are really noisy! Holding the guns with both hands, he twitched the two of them on the neck when the little guy pounced, and the two little guys fell to the ground like fallen leaves in the wind, unconscious.
Zhao Xintong stepped into the door, looked left and right, couldn't see anything clearly in the dark, and used some mana slightly, and found that something seemed to block his vision and touch. I was shocked, so I had to walk forward tentatively for a while, and the more I walked, the more frightened I felt - for so many years, the Demon Master Inn was located not far from my home, but why didn't I realize that it was so big?
Zhao Xintong was so anxious that she couldn't help but pull a handful of flowers and plants from the side and crush them in her hand, and at the same time wiped the sweat on her forehead with the back of her right hand, only to feel irritable. But there was no other way, even if she searched the inn, she would find him!
With this strong determination, Zhao Xintong took a breath and continued to move forward.
However, she suddenly stopped.
In the dark, Zhao Xintong slowly raised the right hand he used to wipe the sweat, and it was this hand that crushed the flower. She put her hand under her nose and took a deep breath.
Zhao Xintong slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and her eyes lit up - sure enough.
This flower doesn't have any taste.
No matter how strange the inn was, it could block her sight and touch, but it couldn't block her sense of smell!
She's going to find the man by smell!
I saw Zhao Xintong slowly close her eyes, her delicate and small nose twitched slightly, and she moved slowly while feeling the bloody aura of a hundred feet in a radius......
Suddenly, her eyes opened!
Got it!
Zhao Xintong ran quickly along the bloody aura, and she couldn't count how many scenes she had repeated on the way, how many "lakes" she had stepped on, and how many buildings she had crossed. After running like this for an unknown amount of time, she saw a simple and luxurious hall appear in front of her without warning. For some reason, her instincts told her that this was the place.
The man is here!
No matter where the confidence came from, Zhao Xintong rushed to the steps in front of the hall excitedly, and when she reached the top of the steps, several guards saw her at the same time.
Zhao Xintong saw that someone was blocking the way, but he was not surprised and rejoiced -- there were people here, which means that the place was really the right one! However, he was not afraid that the other party was more numerous than himself, so he quickened his pace, flew and jumped, and directly passed through the people who had not yet had time to completely close together; while passing by them, the broken guns held in both hands were lightly touched on the backs of the little guys one by one, and the little guys fell to the ground one after another as if they had been hit hard.
Wiping the sweat on her head, Zhao Xintong's heart couldn't help but feel a little proud, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and she spilled away, but her whole body stiffened the moment she turned her head.
I saw that in the main hall, a person was sitting upright on the steps of the jade platform, holding his chin with both hands, looking at her with a solemn expression, disapprovingly.
It's not that person, but who's it!
Zhao Xintong stared at Qi Xiaoxuan blankly, only to feel that her mind was in chaos. What, he ...... But Daddy's hundred-step crossing Yang is within a radius of one mile, as long as it is a locked target, it will definitely be hit! And the blood stains are clearly real, and the amount is still so large, someone must have been injured...... How could he be okay? In his doubts, he suddenly realized that there seemed to be one person missing.
The one who stood up and took responsibility for himself when he was questioned by his father.
That boy named Torako!
The injured person turned out to be ......
"Is he okay?" Zhao Xintong asked, his hesitant voice adding a sense of timidity to the empty hall.
"......" Qi Xiaoxuan was silent for a long time, "His name is Huzi." β
Yan Yu stood up on his knees and said in a low voice, "I was shot in the right half of my body...... The whole arm is gone. β
"Now it's a matter of fate. β
In a plain tone, the truth that came out was bloody and torn in front of Zhao Xintong.
Zhao Xintong only felt that a bucket of ice water was poured from head to toe, and the whole person was like falling into an ice cave. Every word that Qi Xiaoxuan spit out of his mouth was like a sharp knife, stabbing it into his heart.
After a long time, she spat out a sentence with difficulty: "I...... How can I help?"
The hands that have held the gun for more than ten years are a little unstable for the first time.
"......" Qi Xiaoxuan originally wanted to say something, but seeing her like this, she was also a little unbearable, and sighed softly, "Pray for him." β
In the main hall, the two were relatively speechless, each with their own thoughts, and the originally empty hall became more and more silent.
At this moment, the beam at the top of the hall suddenly rustled, as if a rat had scurried by. The two didn't care, still immersed in their own thoughts. I didn't want to the next moment, I just heard a loud "bang", and the roof suddenly burst open, and the wood and stone were all down, and the momentum was huge. Qi Xiaoxuan hurriedly took two steps back, looked up in surprise, and saw a black figure in the misty smoke and dust falling down, revealing a face full of beards under the black robe, and his eyes were as sharp as knives!
It's Sect Master Zhao!
When he saw Qi Xiaoxuan, he snorted coldly, and with the momentum of landing, his right leg slammed to the ground, and the seemingly hard marble floor, under the power of his leg, was as fragile as tofu, and instantly cracked a crater-like pit with Sect Master Zhao as the center, and the stones in the pit broke into gravel of different sizes one after another, shattering in the air.
When Qi Xiaoxuan saw Sect Master Zhao, he secretly screamed in his heart, and hurriedly took a few steps back, only to see that Sect Master Zhao was really not finished, it was not enough to shatter the floor in the hall, the gravel that was shaken by it seemed to suddenly have consciousness, and tacitly gathered and rushed to a position as the center, and in a moment, it had already merged into a cylindrical boulder, suspended in the air! Sect Master Zhao put his left leg back, and then kicked his right foot, and rushed forward, his right hand clenched into a huge iron fist, and struck hard at the back of the boulder- The boulder roared in the direction of Qi Xiaoxuan. The speed was so fast that the air around it seemed to be involved in this huge force, making a sonic boom sound!
Qi Xiaoxuan's expression was serious, his eyebrows were locked, and there were words in his mouth, and at the last moment, a charm appeared on his raised right hand. He clenched his right hand and slapped it against the boulder less than three feet away from his face!
With a "bang" sound, the boulder burst open violently and turned into powder!
Qi Xiaoxuan was about to stop his hand, but when he raised his eyes, he saw a face full of beards facing him, less than a finger apart! At the same time, he only felt a pain in his neck, a big hand grabbed his throat tightly, and the rough skin grinded him painfully.
Zhao Xintong saw that the big hand grabbed Qi Xiaoxuan's neck fiercely, pinched it desperately, and slammed it to the ground with the momentum of impact; the slender neck of Qi Xiaoxuan was naturally vulnerable, and it was immediately broken, and the black blood of the big tent spurted out from the broken wound and was scattered all over the ground.
Zhao Xintong only felt that her mind was blank. He...... That's how he died?
After a long time, the smoke cleared, and Zhao Xintong heard the familiar cold snort of his father.
"Both times he dodged the fatal blow in a few shots...... The Shadow Ink Technique lives up to its reputation. Sect Master Zhao casually shook off the ink splashed on his hands, turned his head and sneered, narrowed his eyes, and said in a somewhat strange tone, "It is worthy of being the eldest prince of the Qimen Sect - Qi Xiaoxuan." β
Zhao Xintong was shocked, and looked behind him in disbelief - sure enough, who was standing quietly behind the door, who was he and he was still alive, alive completely! In a moment of great joy, he suddenly realized the content of what Sect Master Zhao was saying
ββWhat, he is Qi Xiaoxuan?The eldest prince of the Eight Great Sects of Qimen Sect, who entered the National Demon Master at the age of 12 and became the captain at the age of 16?
Qi Xiaoxuan was not surprised at all that his identity was recognized, his face was as usual, and he arched his hand slightly at Sect Master Zhao: "Senior Zhao is really well-informed, and he has won the award." β
Sect Master Zhao sneered, grabbed the body of the gun and slammed it to the ground: "Hmph, I'm not praising you, after all, it's only the Qimen Sect ...... who use the dirty trick of splashing people with ink" I wanted to mock two more sentences, but I suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhao Xintong's hands, with the head of the gun in one hand and the tail of the gun in the other, which was very eye-catching.
Sect Master Zhao stared roundly.
"Xiaotong, your gun?" reacted as soon as the words came out, and then shouted, "Who broke your gun!" Staring at Zhao Xintong, his heart was full of anger, thinking that my Zhao Menzong has not been publicized all these years, but it seems to be underestimated, not only does the Qi family not take my Zhao family in their eyes, but they break into my daughter's boudoir at night; even my Zhao family's gun has been broken by someone else, it's just not like words! If the old man knows who it is, he must be killed!
However, no matter how Sect Master Zhao pressed to ask who it was, although Zhao Xintong was reprimanded and trembled all over, he only lowered his head and pursed his lips and did not dare to answer. Sect Master Zhao looked at his daughter, suddenly realized something, and suddenly turned his head to look at Qi Xiaoxuan again. I saw that Qi Xiaoxuan was still the same as before, looking at him quietly, with no joy or anger on his face.
"Qi Xiaoxuan......" Sect Master Zhao clenched the overlord spear in his hand, his teeth rang out, and he felt that the monstrous anger was about to burst out of his body. With a flip of his wrist, the overlord spear turned vertical and horizontal, and Sect Master Zhao stared at Qi Xiaoxuan deadly, really wanting to immediately tear this kid's underbeaten face under his own gun.
"Daddy!" Zhao Xintong naturally knew what kind of punishment she would face if she broke her spearman, and in the face of her father's majesty, she didn't dare to squeak in a moment of panic. Unexpectedly, with her silence, Sect Master Zhao actually misunderstood Qi Xiaoxuan's head, and immediately panicked, and hurriedly spoke up, wanting to stop him.
"Shut up!"
Sect Master Zhao, who was already red-eyed, ignored his daughter's dissuasion at all, and went straight forward with his gun.
"Not only did I break into my Zhao family at night, but I also broke my Zhao family's gun, which is simply because my Zhao Sect does not exist!"
Sect Master Zhao strode forward, rumbling.
"Do you think that because you are the number one sect in the world, you can do whatever you want?"
Shoved the Overlord Gun into the ground, making an earth-shattering loud bang.
"As long as the old man is still there, the dignity of Zhao Menzong cannot be trampled on!"
Sect Master Zhao stood majestically in front of the equally majestic overlord spear, really like a heavenly general, and his momentum was terrifying.
- However, Qi Xiaoxuan still stood quietly like Fang Cai, with an expressionless face.
Not only was he not intimidated by Sect Master Zhao's momentum, but his thoughts also drifted to other places.
He remembered the tiger who was lying on the jade bed and moaning.
He remembered how the gun that represented the dignity of Zhao Menzong coldly pierced his left shoulder, and now, the same overlord gun representing the dignity of Zhao Menzong ruthlessly cut off his right arm, he remembered the blood flowing in the place when he carried Huzi back to the inn, and how cold his hand was holding his clothes.
Yet even earlier today, that hand was hot, warm, and full of life. The hand that took the sugar gourd was hot, the hand that stuffed the cake into his mouth was hot, and the hand that held his hand and dragged the kite to run wildly was hot.
However, now this hand has exploded under the gun as domineering as the name, and has turned into a rain of blood.
But what did he do wrong?
It's just because of a small misunderstanding and a sincere heart that wants to protect others.
Qi Xiaoxuan suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
- The dignity of your Zhao Sect has been preserved, but who will defend the dignity of Huzi?
He sighed softly.
At the same time, I also made a decision in my mind that may not be so suitable.
He greeted Sect Master Zhao and slowly stepped forward, raising his eyebrows.
"The gun was indeed broken because of me. β
As these words came out, the entire hall fell into an eerie silence again.
Zhao Xintong looked at Qi Xiaoxuan in disbelief, only to feel that her heartbeat had stopped.
Although Sect Master Zhao's eyes were cold when he looked at Qi Xiaoxuan, he also had a little more appreciation at this time. He laughed, his smile almost hideous, and he heard only a loud roar.
"Okay, there's a kind!"
The word "species" fell, and the tall figure has jumped into the air!
However, I don't know if it was dazzling, when Sect Master Zhao raised the overlord gun and rushed towards Qi Xiaoxuan, he seemed to catch a glimpse of the young man's dark eyes, and there was a faint flame burning.
