At the beginning of late spring, the wind and the sun are beautiful, and there is a warm and warm atmosphere up and down Xihuang Mountain. The spring breeze of the pen and the fun of the pavilion www.biquge.info not only sent away the cold of winter, but also diluted the sorrow buried in the bottom of my heart.

At the foot of Xihuang Mountain, Lu Yifan sent someone to build a Lu family ancestral hall, and buried all the deceased Lu family members in it.

The center of the ancestral hall is hundreds of tombs of all sizes, and the three large tombs displayed at the front of these tombs are Lu Haoqian, Liu Qingyuan and Lu Jun. In front of the tombstone, three stone tables with a length and width of several meters are filled with ingots, candles, and incense burners to offer fruits. The incense is divided into three tripods, the nine pillars of high incense are directly inserted in the three tripod incense burners, the incense is quiet and relieved, and a wisp of incense slowly lingers in the ancestral hall, so that people's hearts can't help but calm down.

Merit and demerit, good and evil, good and evil, striving for fame and fortune, intrigue. All the hustle and bustle that can and cannot be let go of in the world seems to be no longer important here. Here, what is looked down on is fame, what is given up is profit, and what is pure is the heart, and if you want to exchange for the purity and relief of all distracting thoughts, the first thing you have to experience is to carry out a knife-and-axe-like carving and torture in the softest place of your heart.

Mourning and dying is not not mourning, not wanting to live is not painless, breaking the liver and intestines is not liberation, and heartbreak is not really hopeless. In the end, it's just that after a lot of blood and tears, you and I have become numb in pain.

After going through complicated rituals, Lu Jun's body was finally buried in the ground. At this moment, it was close to noon, Lu Yifan, who was wearing linen and filial piety, and the people of the Soul Sect who were dressed in white knelt neatly in front of the graves of Lu Haoqian and the others, and bowed three times and nine times silently. When they raised their heads again, a gust of wind slowly blew through the Lu family ancestral hall, blowing the new spring shoots in the ancestral hall into a rattling sound, as if Lu Jun and they were responding to Lu Yifan's memorial in the nine heavens.

"The new life of spring buds is the beginning of a new round of life! The autumn wind and leaves fall, spring is full of joy, Vientiane is renewed, and the cycle repeats, this is the cycle of heaven!" Yulou sighed softly, his words were not only a mouthful, but also seemed to be deliberately saying it to Lu Yifan.

"The funeral is over, you all go out first!" Lu Yifan, who was kneeling at the front, muttered expressionlessly, "Let me talk to my father and mother and Lu Jun alone." ”

"Yifan......" Han Ling'er bit her lower lip lightly, her eyes full of worry.

"Don't worry!Go out and wait for me!" Lu Yifan squeezed out a relieved smile at Han Ling'er, and at the same time waved his hand lightly again to signal everyone to go out, "Go out!"

Liu Sandao, Ji Yuan, and Xie Yun glanced at each other, and there was a solemn look in their eyes, but in the end, none of them disobeyed Lu Yifan's intentions, they just nodded silently, and then gently waved their hands to signal the Soul Sect disciples kneeling behind them to quietly withdraw from the ancestral hall.

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, the door of the ancestral hall slammed shut. And at the moment when the gate closed, Lu Yifan, the only one kneeling in front of the grave in the huge ancestral hall, could no longer hold back the sadness in his heart, and wept silently.

"I'm sorry......" Lu Yifan's tears blurred his eyes in an instant, and he knelt in front of the three graves tremblingly, crying all the way, and kept repeating this sentence in his throat with choking, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... It's me, it's all my fault, I'm arrogant, I'm blindly confident, I despise everything, I'm bent on going my own way, it's me who caused you to end up like this, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have died today...... I offended Xuanzong with all my heart, and I didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, and I wanted to fight against Dongfang Su, and I killed my father and mother...... Also, that day outside Jinling City, if I hadn't insisted on going my own way and insisting that Brother Liu go after and kill the Huang brothers, then Lu Jun would not have died...... It's because of me that you're dying, and I'm the real culprit...... After my father and mother suffered a tragic accident, I once regarded human life as a mustard and killed many innocent people indiscriminately, maybe this is God's punishment for my cold-blooded killing...... But why do you want Lu Jun to be punished for me, the damned person should be me...... What kind of thing am I, Lu Yifan? What am I? In the past, I was just thinking too highly of myself that I would commit so many bastard things...... My father told me a long time ago that I can't be rash, that I can't just be blessed by providence, because good luck won't always be on my side...... Maybe it's because I've had a smooth life, and I never believed that bad things could happen to me, but to this day...... I realized that I was nothing, I didn't have any love from God at all, and if I made a mistake, I would die, and even affect the people closest to me......"

With Lu Yifan's deep repentance, he couldn't help beating his chest with remorse, and slammed his fists on the ground again and again, and smashed the hard bluestone ground into a piece of powder with three or five punches, and a trace of red blood also penetrated through his skin that was cut by sharp stones

。 It's a pity that at this moment, even if he apologizes with death, he can't make up for the mistakes he has made, Lu Haoqian and Liu Qingyuan are indeed dead, Lu Jun is also dead, these are things that he can never change.

Heaven and earth are merciless, and the world is indifferent. The Emperor and Queen of Heaven will never be sad because of anyone's sorrow, nor will he be happy because of anyone's joy. Whether it's a natural disaster or not, it never makes sense of time or not, and never asks if you're ready, because if you choose to live between the cruel world, it's the same as choosing to take a road that you can never predict, bumpy and difficult. The most terrible thing in the world is regret, no matter how strong your cultivation is, how powerful you are, and how rich your family is, in front of the word regret, like everyone else, you have a helpless sense of powerlessness. Perhaps, in a sense, this is more or less a kind of fairness to the world, right?

"Ah......h

Lu Yifan looked up to the sky angrily and roared, and a roar mixed with endless anger and remorse suddenly rose to the sky, and a fierce and irritable energy suddenly radiated out from his body, directly shaking the surrounding flowers and trees into a rattle.

"Lu Yifan, what are you a big man kneeling here crying and crying?"

At this moment, a slightly angry woman's voice suddenly sounded behind Lu Yifan, and then I saw Mu Dan, who was dressed in a white dress, standing on the top of the ancestral hall at the moment, looking at Lu Yifan's back with a complicated face.

"You ......"

"Don't blame the people outside, I sneaked in by myself!" Without waiting for Lu Yifan to ask, Mu Dan was the first to explain, "What? I secretly hid here and cried, crying to those who have passed away, don't you see people?"

Being questioned so solemnly by Mu Dan, Lu Yifan couldn't help but be speechless for a while, he first wiped the tears on his face with his hand, and after a long time, he muttered with a gloomy expression: "I don't deserve to be sad in front of them at all......"

"Yes!" Mu Dan didn't seem to intend to show mercy to Lu Yifan, and admitted bluntly, "You haven't solved any problems from beginning to end, but have been making trouble for everyone! If something happened to the Lu family, you didn't go to find out the murderer, but just took the innocent people of the Western Imperial City to be angry, Lu Jun He is also a descendant of the Lu family, isn't he sad? You must know that among the dead people are not only your father and mother, but also Lu Jun's parents!" In order to take care of your emotions, Lu Jun had to hide his grief deep in his heart, but he had to comfort you everywhere, and endure your mistakes again and again, so that in the end, even his life was put into it for nothing for your will, what else do you want? If something happens, you either kill people indiscriminately or hide in the corner and remain silent, or you will kneel here alone and cry like a woman, all of us will worry about you all day long, and you will go out to see how haggard Ling'er looks? Have you ever thought about how much effort she put into comforting you? If you go to see Liu Sandao, Ji Yuan, and Xie Yun again, have you counted a few of them who are afraid that you won't be able to think about it for a while, and how many days have you not closed your eyes? And those Soul Sect disciples who put their lives on the line for your foolish orders, have you thought about them? Have you ever thought about their fathers, mothers, wives and children? Lu Yifan, do you know how many people's joys and sorrows have been affected by your emotions now? Do you know how many families have been separated in just a few months? How many white-haired people have sent black-haired people? What are you doing now? Are you kneeling here and crying secretly? Do you regret it? Then what should they do? Do you want to cry with you? Regret together? Lu Yifan, don't forget that you are the head of a sect, if even you can't bear it and want to hide here and cry secretly, then why did you bother to support this sect in the first place? If even you fall, then what should others do? In the past, you relied on Lord Lu, and then you relied on Liu Sandao and Han Xiao, so who do you want to rely on in the future? You should really think clearly, you are not the one who makes you rely on others, but the one you want to be relied on by others

In my opinion, are you not worthy of being sad? You are not worthy of being a son of Lord Lu and his wife, a brother to Lu Jun, a sect master of the Soul Sect, or even a descendant of the Western Emperor Mingyuan......" Mu Dan was so excited that she blurted out the speculation about Lu Yifan in her heart, but when he realized that he had lost his words, the words had already been spoken, and her face became a little unnatural at the moment.

Hearing Mu Dan's words, Lu Yifan also fell into deep reflection, so much so that when Mu Dan finally revealed his true identity, Lu Yifan's reaction was surprisingly flat, he just asked lightly in a trance: "When did you know that I am a descendant of the Western Emperor Mingyuan?"

"I guess! When we first met, we met Liu Sandao here together, and at that time I thought there must be something wrong with the two of you who were weird, and I had already guessed one or two at that time, but Liu Sandao threatened me with a knife, so it was not confirmed. Mu Dan explained in a low voice rather embarrassed, and she hurriedly promised, "But don't worry, I will never mention this matter to anyone, and I will keep it a secret for you forever!"

"Thank you......" Lu Yifan didn't seem to have much interest in this topic, and just nodded casually.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the door of the ancestral hall was slammed open, and then I saw Liu Sandao and others with a stunned face rushing in stride, Liu Sandao walked directly towards Mu Dan as soon as he came up, stretched out his hand to pull Mu Dan out, and said while moving: "I heard movement inside and knew there was a problem! When did you come in? Hurry up and go out with me......

"Brother Liu, stop!" Just when Mu Dan exclaimed in surprise and wanted to escape, Lu Yifan, who was sitting on the ground, opened his mouth and said, "Mu Dan scolded me just now, she scolded happily, and I listened to it very happily!"

"What?" Lu Yifan's words made Liu Sandao and the others feel surprised, and several people stared at each other, and no one could react to what was going on.

"What Mu Dan said just now is right! Regret can't solve any problems, and it can't save anyone who has died!" Lu Yifan had already wiped away the tears from his eyes at this moment, only to see him slowly turn around and kneel in front of the grave again, and slowly raised his right hand, actually to swear to the sky, "I, Lu Yifan, now swear to the sky in front of my father, mother, Lu Jun and the spirits of all the Lu family, one day I will kill Xuanzong, sword Dongfang Su, and use the head of Dongfang Lao'er to sacrifice your spirit in the sky!"

"Hiss!" As soon as Lu Yifan said this, everyone in the courtyard let out an exclamation. This is not a joke, it is the Sect Master of the Holy Domain, the entire Sacred Domain is the strongest peak master, as far as the current Lu Yifan and the Soul Sect are concerned, it is not said that they killed the Dongfang Su, but I am afraid that even the mountain gate of the Xuanzong will not be able to kill it!

"Yifan, you can't make an oath indiscriminately, you have to think clearly!" Ji Yuan couldn't help but persuade.

"I've thought very clearly!" Lu Yifan slowly stood up after swearing, "But don't worry, I won't be as reckless as before, let alone black and white, indiscriminately killing innocents!" Saying that, Lu Yifan actually walked slowly in front of Ji Yuan, and before Ji Yuan could react, Lu Yifan suddenly bent one knee and bowed down at Ji Yuan, which scared Ji Yuan to hurry. Puff was the first to kneel on the ground, and used his hands to support Lu Yifan, who wanted to kneel, but no matter how hard Rao is Ji Yuan, Lu Yifan's body was always as steady as Mount Tai, and finally his knees slammed on the ground with a 'bang', "Ji Yuan, I was wrong last time, and here I, Lu Yifan, apologize to you!"

"Yifan!" Ji Yuan burst into tears with excitement, clasped Lu Yifan's arms with both hands, and said sonorously, "My great revenge was avenged by you for me, not only that, but you have also saved Yi'er's life many times and again, and my life Ji Yuan has long been yours."

I also swear to heaven today that I will never abandon you again in the future! From now on, I Ji Yuan will accompany you in the sword mountain and the sea of fire, and it is incumbent on me to break through with you!"

"Kihara!"

Lu Yifan was also moved by Ji Yuan's true temperament, and smiled gratefully, and then the two big men hugged each other in full view. In this situation, Mo said that it was Han Ling'er, Mu Dan and Wu Mei's daughters, even Ji Yi'er, who had always been cold, couldn't help but be moved.

"Except for Yifan and Brother Liu, the cultivation of the rest of us, I'm afraid that without thirty or fifty years, it will be impossible to compete with Xuanzong's 'One Lord, Three Ancestors, Five Ming Kings, and Twelve Elders', which is really far from the same!" Xie Yun shook his head helplessly and sighed, "I join forces with Ji Yuan, Qin Qingyu, and Chu Ding, the most powerful members of the Soul Sect, and they may not be able to match an ordinary elder of Xuanzong, this ......"

"This may require my help!" Before Xie Yun finished speaking, Lu Yifan suddenly laughed confidently, and seeing his confident expression, Xie Yun and the others couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Yifan, what do you mean by that?" Liu Sandao asked impatiently.

"Brother Liu, do you know what soul method I have comprehended from the Soul Punishment Technique after I stepped into the Soul Emperor Realm?" Lu Yifan pretended to smile mysteriously.

"Flame Soul, Ice Soul, Wind Soul, this time it's ......"

"Sword Soul!" Without waiting for Han Ling'er to say Lu Yifan's hole cards one by one, Lu Yifan replied bluntly, only to see his right hand slowly open, and then held it flat in front of everyone's eyes, and then saw his eyebrows slightly tightened, and then a purple light flashed in his eyes, and in an instant, a purple sword in the palm of his hand shot out, and when the purple light dissipated, a dark purple sword with a dark purple luster appeared in his hand strangely.

"It's ...... The move that you sneaked up on me on the day you woke up?" Liu Sandao instantly understood as soon as he saw this familiar purple light, "So, you can now integrate the Stygian Sword into your body?"

"That's good!" Lu Yifan chuckled and nodded, "When I discovered that the Stygian Sword could be transformed into a sword soul, I was surprised to find another thing!"

"What?"

"Flame Soul, Ice Soul, Wind Soul, and Sword Soul, bringing the four souls into one can stimulate the Blood Soul, and the reason why I was able to break through the Soul Emperor Realm from the Seven Transformation Soul King in just three months is because of the Blood Soul!" Lu Yifan explained seriously, "It's just that I only refine the Soul Punishment Technique to the Xuan level now, so once the Blood Soul is cast, it will take a lot of mental effort." As the name suggests, the blood soul is to refine the essence of my own blood into a soul, and the power contained in it is even far beyond my imagination, once this power is injected into the dantian qi sea in a gentle way, and if it is integrated with my own meridians, the improvement of cultivation will be immeasurable. It's just that once the blood soul is triggered, it will cause my body to fall into endless emptiness in an instant, and at worst, it will directly pass out for a few days or even dozens of days, and it is still difficult to say whether it will die or not!"

As soon as Lu Yifan said this, everyone felt surprised. Among the people present, except for Liu Sandao and Mu Dan, the others would not understand what Lu Yifan's bloodline essence meant at all? You must know that it is a genuine Protoss bloodline, in other words, if the people of the Five Domains can integrate the essence of the Protoss bloodline into themselves, it will definitely be much more replenishing than eating any of the best pills in the world!

"That'...... What do you mean?" Somehow, Yin Xi was a little inexplicably excited now, and an indescribable sense of anticipation also arose.

"It's very simple, I have decided to have all the Soul Sect elders and Dharma Protectors go into retreat for three months. During this period, I will use my blood soul to help your cultivation!"
