Chapter 12: The Shadow of the Excalibur (Part II)
Looking at the Chengying Sword in front of him, Zhou Boyan couldn't help but hesitate again, how much he knew about his understanding of the Chengying Sword Technique, and said that there was a success rate of two or three percent was the most optimistic judgment.
On top of that, there's only one chance to gain Excalibur's approval in this way.
Once it fails, then if you want to get the approval of the Shadow Divine Sword in the future, you can only rely on cultivation to forcibly refine it.
She didn't say these words to Wu Chi, and she didn't want Wu Chi to have more psychological burden, in the final analysis, this matter actually had nothing to do with Wu Chi.
But there's really no time!
A trace of blood was bitten out of his lip, Zhou Boyan was ruthless in his heart, stepped out, and his palm suddenly pressed on the Divine Sword Chengying.
In just a few breaths, Zhou Boyan's face suddenly turned extremely pale, and his body trembled uncontrollably slightly, as if he might collapse at any time.
Only when you really come into contact with Excalibur Chengying can you understand how difficult it is to be recognized.
Even though he was actually mentally prepared, Zhou Boyan was almost fainted by the impact of the sword intent, and could only rely on the only remaining trace of reason to persist.
This is not a direct refining, but at the moment of contact with the Divine Sword Chengying, it releases a trace of sword intent of understanding, and constantly deduces the Chengying Sword Technique in the consciousness to guide.
"Poof!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out, and a few points of dazzling blood were suddenly left on the snow-white clothes, and Zhou Boyan fell back a few steps, and there was no trace of blood on his face. If Wu Chi hadn't reacted quickly and helped her, he would have even fallen to the ground.
"How is it?, have you been eaten by the sword intent?" Holding Zhou Boyan, Wu Chi's heart trembled slightly, and he asked with concern.
"Failed. His face was full of bitterness, Zhou Boyan gently wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, and sighed, "It's too difficult, it's because I was too optimistic before, not to mention that Sancheng is sure, and I don't even have half of the hope." ”
"Are you injured, is it serious?" Wu Chi had already guessed this result, and what he cared about at the moment was not whether Zhou Boyan had refined the Divine Sword Chengying at all.
"It's fine. Shaking his head, Zhou Boyan reluctantly collected his mind, and then replied softly, "I just tried to guide the divine sword with sword intent, and I didn't forcibly refine it, although I also received some backlash, but it was not serious." ”
Hearing this, Wu Chi was a little relieved, "It's okay, let's deduce it slowly, maybe there will be a miracle." ”
"It's useless. Shaking his head, Zhou Boyan said softly, "There is only one such opportunity, the Divine Sword Chengying has already remembered my breath, even if I can understand the Chengying Sword Intent in the future, I will not be able to use such a method to refine the Divine Sword." ”
This time, Wu Chi really reacted, and unconsciously felt a trace of remorse in his heart, and raised his hand to give himself a slap.
"What are you doing?" Reaching out to grab Wu Chi's hand, Zhou Boyan said angrily, "It's not your fault, it's my own choice." ”
Some words come to the lips but are swallowed, things have come to this point, what is the use of talking about others?
"I'm sorry, but I was too impatient. ”
"Don't say that, it's fate. With a sigh, a smile appeared on Zhou Boyan's face, "If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't even have a chance." ”
"Anyway, it's already like this, so I just have to cut off the last bit of thought. ”
Although she is still a teenage girl, Zhou Boyan's bearing and open-mindedness are far from being comparable to ordinary people.
"After you leave in a moment, I'll have someone send you away. With a hint of firmness in his eyes, Zhou Boyan said decisively.
Unable to obtain the approval of Excalibur Chengying, the last glimmer of hope has almost been cut off, and to some extent, the result is already doomed.
"Come with me. Looking at Zhou Boyan, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes, Wu Chi raised his head and said softly.
What kind of result will be next, not only Zhou Boyan is clear, but Wu Chi is also very clear, otherwise he would not have reminded Zhou Boyan to find an opportunity to come to the Sword Pavilion.
In fact, this is actually the last hope.
Shaking his head slightly, Zhou Boyan didn't explain, and he didn't need to explain.
"There's no point in you staying, only alive can there be hope, do you understand?" Wu Chi was a little crazy, this chick was simply going to go all the way to the dark, and she refused to turn back knowing that she was going to die.
"But there are always things that are more important than life. ”
Looking at Zhou Boyan's serious eyes, Wu Chi finally couldn't say anything.
Is there really anything more important than life in this world?
Wu Chi is a little incomprehensible, he has always been a little person who just wants to eat and drink, if the trajectory of his life does not change, maybe he will stay in the Iron Sword Gate in obscurity for a lifetime until the end of his life.
Even now, he still can't figure out why he has the courage to draw his sword from his senior brother in order to insist on staying.
But now that the result is almost doomed, do you still have to hold on?
He had seen Luo Kun, and he also understood how terrifying the gap in strength between the two sides was, and if he lost Zhou Yuanting's Sword Shadow Villa, there was no chance of resistance at all.
His mind was in a trance, and Wu Chi didn't even remember how he left the Sword Pavilion.
Sitting silently in the small courtyard, his heart was inexplicably complicated.
"Miss, have you really decided?" Looking at this young lady who could almost be said to have been brought up by himself, Uncle Shui's eyes were full of pity.
"Uncle Shui, don't persuade me, I've already thought about it. Raising his head, Zhou Boyan said slowly, "I grew up under the pampering of my father and elders since I was a child, and I have enjoyed a life that others can't imagine, and now, I naturally have to bear some responsibilities." ”
"Sword Shadow Villa is my father's life's work, everyone here is my relatives, how can I selfishly leave them behind and escape alone?"
"Maybe it's not that way yet. Uncle Shui hesitated for a moment and continued, "If the young lady leaves, the most they can do is snatch the Divine Sword." ”
Without waiting for Uncle Shui to finish speaking, Zhou Boyan interrupted himself, and a trace of contempt appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Uncle Shui, you don't have to coax me! I understand, this time, whether we hand over the Divine Sword Chengying or not, we can't stop them." ”
"Tianshan disciple, there are some things that can be done, but they are absolutely not allowed to be said by others. ”
From the very beginning, Zhou Boyan was very clear about the result of not being able to hold the Chengying Sword.
Tianshan will not easily bear the reputation of snatching the divine sword, so as the bitter master, the Sword Intent Villa must be destroyed, otherwise it will leave a hidden danger.
sighed, and Uncle Shui didn't persuade again, because persuasion was useless.
"Uncle Shui, please let someone send him back to the Iron Sword Gate. Glancing at the sun that had set to the west, Zhou Boyan said softly.
"Miss, don't you see him again?"
"It's gone. Shaking his head, Zhou Boyan slowly turned his back and said in a deep voice, "Sword Shadow Villa doesn't owe favors, you must send him away safely." ”
After a moment of silence, Uncle Shui turned around silently and left quietly.
It's just that he didn't notice that when he turned around, tears slowly dripped down Zhou Boyan's face, and he was choked silently.
"Young Master Wu, Miss commanded, please leave the Sword Shadow Villa. ”
Pushing open the door, it wasn't until Uncle Shui's voice slowly sounded that Wu Chi suddenly woke up.
"Uncle Shui. Wu Chi had also seen Uncle Shui before, so he naturally understood the identity of the other party, and his mouth was a little bitter, but he didn't know what to say for a while.
With a sigh, Uncle Shui said slowly, "Let's go, I know your thoughts, but you are still too weak after all." Even if you stay, there is no point. ”
Although no one has made it clear, such a feeling, in the eyes of Uncle Shui, has no secrets at all.
If Zhou Yuanting was still alive, with Zhou Boyan's identity, Wu Chi would not even have a chance to come into contact with him, let alone have any feelings with Zhou Boyan.
Now that Zhou Yuanting is gone, Sword Shadow Villa is in turmoil, and it can even be said that its destruction is imminent, and with Wu Chi's identity and strength, there is no way to change anything.
It's brutal, but that's the reality.
Maybe many years later, in the memory of the little guy in front of him, he will still remember everything now, but that is only a memory.
"Can't you wait any longer?" Wu Chi was still a little struggling, trying to desperately grab something.
"Wait, you won't be able to leave. Shaking his head, Uncle Shui said in a deep voice.
He naturally understood what Wu Chi meant.
But now, it is no secret that Wu Chi followed Zhou Boyan into the Sword Pavilion, and if it drags on, it will be impossible to leave.
"Want to go?"
With a sneer, Luo Kun said disdainfully, "If you take advantage of it, you want to run, how can it be so easy!"
"Senior Brother Luo, we can't take care of him now, it's the right thing to watch Miss Zhou and the Sword Pavilion. Seeing Luo Kun's annoyance, Deng Mao hurriedly said, "Now it seems that Miss Zhou's refining of the Divine Sword must have failed, and now she has to be prevented from escaping, or someone will escape with the Divine Sword Chengying." ”
At the mention of this, Luo Kun also calmed down a little, "As long as no one can refine the divine sword, it is impossible to take it away silently, so don't worry about this." ”
After a pause, Luo Kun continued, "However, we have to prevent Miss Zhou from escaping! Zhou Yuanting has a close relationship with Changchun Zhenren, once she is allowed to escape to Kunlun, I am afraid that there will be trouble." ”
"That's right! It's not just her, these people in Sword Shadow Villa, none of them can be spared! Only dead people don't talk nonsense. Deng Mao's eyes were full of murderous power, and Sen Ran said.
"So, it's cheaper for that kid. Luo Kun said with some dissatisfaction.
"Senior brother, don't worry, he can't run away. With a sneer, Deng Mao said disdainfully, "When we finish dealing with the matter of Sword Shadow Villa, will it be easy to kill him? ”
