PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

Lin Chen didn't think about it, so he rushed out.

Without using any spiritual power exercises, with the speed of the physical body, it was still as fast as an arrow off the string.

While rushing in the direction of the welcome building, Lin Chen called out his friends to check.

The location of the two is indeed near the welcome building.

"Three days ago, it was hundreds of miles away, how could you return to Lingyun City?"

"In such a hurry, there must have been some kind of crisis. With Xi Chongwu's strength, how could he encounter danger in Lingyun City?"

Lin Chen couldn't figure it out, and he didn't bother to think about it, and burst out all the potential of his body with all his strength, like a gust of wind blowing towards the Welcome Building.

In an alley behind the Welcome Building, Xi Chongwu staggered to his feet, his right hand holding the spirit sword was trembling slightly. The rickety body is getting thinner and thinner, and it falls down when the wind blows.

Blood, soaked all over his body.

There are his, but more of them are the enemy's.

"Grandpa Wu......" There were no tears in Xirou's eyes. But the pain in my heart is like a knife and a fire.

This old man, who has always protected her behind her, has guarded her for sixteen years. Even if he is regarded as an enemy by his lifelong loyal family, he has no regrets.

"I hope that kid still has a little conscience, or else...... Grandpa Wu is really useless, he is already so old that he hopes that others can protect you. ”

Xi Chongwu's eyes were full of loneliness. Once upon a time, he was also wielding a sword and was full of spirit. When he is dying, he can't even protect the most important person.

He was not reconciled.

"Old guy, the signal has been sent, and it won't be long before an elder from our Xue family arrives. Seeing that you are also an old-timer, I advise you to tie your hands and catch it, so as not to suffer from flesh and skin when you get it. ”

In front of the two, there were more than a dozen corpses.

A little farther away, there were six people standing. The first one is a director of the Xue Family's Martial Arts Hall. Although he was full of voices, he never dared to take a half step forward.

Those who were bold were now lying in the center of both sides.

Xi Chongwu was silent, he was really unwilling. In the past, although he was just a house slave of the Xi family, with his outstanding talent and the cultivation of his old master, he became the existence of the ninefold peak of the earth level for decades.

This strength, placed outside, is definitely an existence admired by thousands of people. If you have the heart to start a career, it is enough to become the hero of the party. Even in the Xi family, where there are many masters, he also enjoys respect as a house slave.

But right now, he was threatened by a yellow-level seven-fold martial artist. Even, knowing that the opponent's reinforcements were coming, he had no strength left to break out of the encirclement.

"Xiao Rou!"

In the distance, there was a loud shout.

It was as if a spring thunder exploded, and Xi Chongwu's almost desperate heart finally had a trace of vitality.

"Brother Chen, we're here. ”

Xi Rou couldn't help but be overjoyed and responded loudly.

"The Xue family is doing things, the idlers stop, and the violators will be killed!"

The head of the Xue family shouted coldly.

"Kill your uncle, all to death!"

Lin Chen rushed into the alley, and after seeing Xi Rou's haggard face and blue dress covered with blood stains through the cracks, he was immediately furious.

A martial artist of the Xue family thought he was smart, and tried to use Lin Chen to make meritorious service and stand up with his sword.

Lin Chen didn't dodge or dodge, and let the sharp sword stab into his chest.

Choke!

The excited smile on the face of the Xue family's martial artist froze with a crisp sound.

The sharp sword was blocked by Lin Chen's chest. What's even more terrifying is that as Lin Chen rushed, the sword was broken inch by inch.

Although this sword is not a spirit sword, it is also made of refined steel.

In front of this person, it is so unbearable.

The martial artists of the Xue family were shocked and wanted to retreat, but they were already a step too late.

Lin Chen threw a punch into his head.

There was a bang, and under Lin Chen's angry blow, the head of the Xue family's martial artist exploded like a watermelon.

Red and yellow, splashing Lin Chen's face all over his face.

The remaining five people all retreated in terror. The fear in their hearts actually made them forget Xi Chongwu behind them for a while.

Killing people is not enough, as members of the Xue Family's Martial Arts Hall, they not only often see killings, but also often kill people. But like now, the violent scene of directly punching a person's head is the first time I have encountered it.

Just thinking about their heads, the five of them shuddered. Looking at Lin Chen's god-killing momentum, not to mention forgetting that there was still Xi Chongwu in the rear, even if they remembered, they would not hesitate to retreat.

After all, there are many ways to die, and no one likes to die by such violent means.

Swish......

Xi Chongwu didn't let go of this opportunity, and with a wave of the spirit sword, the little spiritual power that had finally recovered all poured out of the dantian.

With a flash of swords, the heads of the five flew out almost at the same time.

"Xiaorou, are you okay?" Lin Chen rushed forward.

"I'm fine, please, save Grandpa Wu......" Xirou grabbed Lin Chen, as if pulling a life-saving straw, although she knew that it was unlikely, her eyes were still full of pleading.

"It's useless, my current injuries are certain to die. Xi Chongwu shook his head, his legs were weak, and he actually sat on the ground: "Leave me alone, take Xiaorou out of here first, the Xue family's reinforcements will be almost there." ”

Lin Chen hugged Xi Rou's waist, hesitated, reached out and grabbed Xi Chongwu's arm, and suddenly got up.

Running wildly, he stopped at an abandoned old mansion a few miles away, and led the two of them over the wall.

"Lin Chen......" After Xi Chongwu lay down on a broken straw mat that Xi Rou found, his somewhat sloppy gaze moved to Lin Chen.

"You say!" Lin Chen knew that there was no way to return to the sky, and the old man had something to explain to him.

Taking off the ring on the middle finger of his right hand, Xi Chongwu handed it to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen hesitated, but couldn't help but take the ring in his hand.

"Inside is all my treasures and the martial arts I have learned, and now, I will give them all to you. I beg you to ...... Give me a promise. Xi Chongwu spoke slowly.

"Don't worry, from now on, I won't let Xiaorou get hurt in any way. Lin Chen was solemn, he understood what the old man wanted.

"Xiaorou didn't mistake you today, I hope ...... I won't be wrong about you in the future. Xi Chongwu smiled bitterly, and his eyes became more and more cloudy.

Lin Chen was silent.

"I'm not reconciled......"

Xi Chongwu let out a long sigh, and his hands hung down weakly.

The breeze blows, and the cloudy eyes have no brilliance. Pupils, gradually dilated.

He was unwilling, unwilling to put Xirou's safety in the hands of someone he didn't trust.

He was unwilling, unwilling to die and did not find the natural treasure to heal Xirou.

He was unwilling, unwilling to be so ruthless and unrighteous in the Xi family, but he was powerless to retaliate.

In his life, there are too many unwillingness.

All the unwillingness turned into a long sigh and dissipated in the breeze.

Tears that had been dried many years ago slipped down Xirou's cheeks.

Lin Chen sighed, gently hugged Xi Rou, and let the silent tears wet his chest.

Looking at Xi Chongwu again, Lin Chen's heart was full of feelings. The world is impermanent, the strong dragon falls into the shallows, the strong die in despair, except for a few people standing at the top, I am afraid that no one can control their own destiny.

The only thing that Xi Chongwu is fortunate about is that there are people who are sad and cry for him after his death.

It wasn't until the evening that Xirou finally cried tired.

"Let's go! Xibo's corpse, I will find someone to come and secretly send it out of the city for burial. ”

Patting Xirou on the shoulder, Lin Chen spoke.

Xirou shook her head.

"The dead are gone, and the living must live. Although I don't know what happened to you, but Xi Bo is unwilling, and he can't even turn his eyes to death, so you can't cheer up and find a way to fulfill his unfulfilled wish?" Lin Chen said with relief.

"Is it possible?" said Xirou smiled wryly.

"What's impossible? Since you know that I am from the Lin family, you must have also inquired about me. You should also know that four and a half months ago, I was seriously injured by a family genius named Lin Yi, right?"

"At that time, who would have believed that I could do it with a sword without any backhand in just four months?"

"My talent is extremely low, and Xibo also said that my talent is barely qualified to practice martial arts. With such a low talent, who would believe that I could one day become a Xuan-level master?"

"But I believe that with a gluttonous trick, I believe that it won't be long before I can become a Xuan-level master, or even the youngest Xuan-level master in Lingyun City. ”

"Similarly, the main cultivation body can't reach the peak, but I don't believe it. Things are man-made, one day, I, Lin Chen, will definitely stand on the top of the highest mountain and look down on all beings. ”

"I don't know what your relationship with the Xi family is, I don't know where the Xi family came from, I don't know what grievances you have, and I also don't understand why you can't cultivate. But I firmly believe that there will always be a day when you will find a solution, and there will always be a day when Xi Bo will be blinded. ”

Gently hugging Xi Rou's shoulder, Lin Chen whispered: "Let's go, you still have me, although my reputation is not very good, I do have a plan to approach you, I am not the kind of hero in your mind, but I will do everything in my power to protect and help you." ”

"Really?" Xirou's eyes finally flashed with a look.

"Really!" Lin Chen's answer was a little weak, he didn't know if he could do this, but he was willing to work hard to do this.

"Do you know how powerful the Xi family is?" asked Xi Rou.

"I don't know, but I can barely guess an approximation. Lin Chen said indifferently: "In fact, the Xi family's threat to me now is not as great as the Xue family's. ”

"Thank you. Xi Rou understood what Lin Chen meant.

"Let's go!"

Taking Xi Rou over the wall, Lin Chen began to use the search function of the friend system to avoid the Xue family members who were still searching everywhere in the evening.

returned all the way to the Lin family, arranged a room for Xirou, and waited until she was nervously exhausted and fell asleep, then opened the door and asked Yahuan to find Liang Cong.

After instructing Liang Cong to find a way to secretly transport Xi Chongwu's body out of the city for burial, Lin Chen listened quietly outside the door for a while, and made sure that Xi Rou was asleep, before taking out the spirit sword and continuing to practice the bloodthirsty second form.

For two days, I accompanied Xirou during the day, searched my stomach and thought of some optimistic stories to tell her, or chatted with her about the customs of Lingyun City. At night, he practiced sword cultivation at her door, although it was a little harder, but seeing Xi Rou's mood improving day by day, Lin Chen was also enjoying it.

Early in the morning of the third day, Yahuan suddenly came to report that Lin Qihong was here.

"Come and cash out your gambling debts?"

Lin Chen felt that this idea was a bit unreliable.

[It's about to be 515, I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list, and the red envelope rain will be able to give back to readers and promotional works on May 15. A piece is also love, it must be better!]
