It was completely dark.

At night, the mountain wind of Ganquan Peak is howling, blowing the mountains and forests with a rattle.

Zhou Ling'er went to the outside of the dungeon accompanied by Lu Qi.

As soon as he approached, the disciple in charge of guarding reached out to stop Zhou Ling'er.

Lu Qi stepped forward and said a few words to the disciple who was guarding, and the disciple frowned, but finally made way for the two.

The two went into the dungeon.

The dungeon was dim, and there was a faint smell of blood that had not dissipated - just a few hours ago, there were still a large number of disciples of the Chengjian lineage imprisoned here, and under the instigation of Xiang An, the guards carried out inhumane torture on the disciples of the Chengjian lineage, even if they were asked by Zhou Sheng to clean it up, the smell of blood still did not dissipate.

Lu Qi took Zhou Ling'er through the long and narrow passage of the dungeon and came to a cell door.

There, a figure crouched in the corner of the cell with its back to them.

His clothes were torn, his hair was scattered, and he remained motionless as if he were enchanted.

Zhou Ling'er seemed to be a little incredulous, that person looked like this, she glanced sideways at Lu Qi beside her as if asking, and Lu Qi nodded at her with a heavy face.

Zhou Ling'er took a deep breath at this time, walked to the prison door, and whispered tentatively: "Brother Xiang An." ”

The figure with its back to the two trembled visibly, but did not look back.

But this kind of performance is enough for Zhou Linger to confirm the identity of the other party.

She hurriedly continued: "Brother Xiang An, don't worry too much! Grandpa loves you so much, he won't do anything to you, he's just angry now......"

"Moreover, I will also help you intercede, you can rest assured, you can be released in a few days at most."

"Oh, by the way, I also brought a lot of food, all of which you like, you can taste them!"

Zhou Ling'er said, then took out a food box from behind him and wanted to hand it into the cell.

At this time, the figure that had always turned his back to the two finally turned his head slowly.

It's true.

It's just that Xiang An has long since lost his high-spirited appearance in the past, his face is full of dirt and blood, his eyes are cloudy, and his gaze is dull.

He looked at the two people outside the cell door in silence, and then looked at the food box handed in by Zhou Ling'er.

And then.

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he smiled at that moment.

It was an extraordinarily eerie smile.

With disdain.

"You're here to see my jokes?" Xiang An said this, his voice hoarse.

Zhou Ling'er's face changed when she heard this, and she hurriedly said, "Brother Xiang An, what do you say?" I care about you......"

"If you cared about me, you shouldn't have secretly released Zuo Chuan's salary in the first place!" Xiang An interrupted Zhou Ling'er's words.

"If it weren't for you, how would Chu Qingxiao know all this! And how can be exposed? ”

"Now, my reputation is ruined, and my martial soul has been destroyed, isn't all this thanks to you!?"

Xiang An gritted his teeth and said, looking at Zhou Ling'er's gaze became gloomy and hideous.

Zhou Ling'er had never seen such a Xiang An, her hand holding the food box trembled, and her face became pale, she felt that Xiang An in front of her looked so strange.

"Brother Xiang An...... Not what you think. She also tried to explain.

Xiang An sneered, his eyes looked past Zhou Ling'er to Lu Qi who was standing beside her, and his eyebrows were raised: "There is a new love so soon?" ”

"Or is it that you were good friends from the beginning, no wonder you will not hesitate to deceive me for his sake."

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Ling'er's face suddenly turned pale, she couldn't believe that Brother Xiang An, who she had always admired and admired, would say such vicious words.

"Xiang An! You don't want to spew blood! Ling'er and I are innocent! But Lu Qi couldn't bear the girl he cared about being insulted by Xiang An like this, so he immediately stepped forward and said angrily.

"For your own selfishness, you brutalized your fellow disciples, and tried to frame Brother Chu, all of which have reached this point, if you don't repent, you just slander me and Ling'er. Xiang An! You are hopeless! ”

Lu Qi's scolding can be described as a heart-wrenching word, and Xiang An, who heard these words, suddenly burst with anger in his eyes.

He suddenly stood up and shouted loudly: "You don't understand anything, that Chu Qingxiao is a scourge, if he lives, the entire Tianhang Mountain will be turned upside down by him alone!" ”

"I'm here for the Heavenly Hanging Mountain! Why are we Ganquan Peak! ”

"I think you're doing it for yourself, right? What was the truth about Wuling City back then, you know better than any of us! It's you who are afraid! Lu Qi ruthlessly debunked Xiang An.

As soon as these words came out, Xiang An's face froze, and the next moment, he looked at Lu Qi with a crazy expression and roared, "You are talking nonsense!" I'm not lying! ”

"Wuling City was held hostage by the sword armor! Song Guicheng is a traitor! ”

"Why should I be afraid!? Why should I be afraid!? ”

The more he spoke, the louder he became, and the look on his face became more and more frenzied.

Looking at Xiang An in this appearance, Lu Qi shook his head, he knew that the other party was completely helpless, he turned his head to look at Zhou Ling'er beside him, and said, "Ling'er, let's go." ”

Zhou Ling'er couldn't bear to look at Xiang An in the cell, and she was a little reluctant in her heart.

But now Xiang An is so unfamiliar that Zhou Linger doesn't know what to say to him again.

"Brother Xiang An, you calm down first, and Ling'er will come to see you in a few days." She looked at Xiang An and said.

But Xiang An couldn't listen to her words at all, but kept roaring: "I'm not wrong!" You're the ones who hurt me! It's you!! ”

Zhou Ling'er was finally completely disappointed, she retracted her gaze, nodded towards Lu Qi, and put the food box in her hand in front of the prison door, and then turned around and left with Lu Qi.

Xiang An looked at the back of the two of them leaving side by side, and at that moment, an indescribable anger and a sense of betrayal came to his mind.

"Bastard!"

"It's all bastard!"

He reached out and grabbed the food box left by Zhou Ling'er on the ground and slammed it against the wall.

The food box suddenly shattered, and the various delicate foods contained in it were scattered all over the ground.

Xiang An looked at this scene and suddenly fell silent.

For a moment, as if accepting the bleak truth, he fell to the ground, clasped his hands around himself, and his fingertips were thrust into the flesh of his arm, and the pain of his heart welled up all over his body, but he was completely unaware of it.

He remembered what had happened in the past twelve years.

I think about my trepidation when I first arrived, the hard work I practiced, and my caution when I came into contact with people.

Finally, he finally had everything he had now, but because of Chu Qingxiao's arrival, everything came to naught overnight.

The resentment and unwillingness in his heart piled up together at this time, and it was difficult to disperse.

He sat paralyzed in his cell for a long, long time.

……

"Are you ready to give up?"

Suddenly, a deep voice sounded in Xiang An's mind.

The voice came abruptly, without warning.

Xiang An looked around.

The cell was lit with dim candles, and there was nothing around except for the mice that sprang out and disappeared from time to time in the dark corners.

But Xiang An was very sure that everything just now was not his hallucination, he looked at the darkness around him, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" ”

"Did you forget me so soon?"

"Don't you remember who helped you condense the martial spirit?" The voice rang out, low and hoarse.

This question made Xiang An's body tremble, but soon, he said, "What do you mean? ”

"Looks like you need me to help you remember your memories." The voice said this, and then the darkness in the corner spread towards Xiang An like a tide.

Xiang An instinctively felt a little frightened, he wanted to avoid it, but he was in the cell, but after a few steps, he had no way to retreat, and was overwhelmed by the darkness that was used like a tide.

The look on his face was stunned and frozen, and certain memories that he had ignored flooded into his mind.

……

When he was trapped in Siguo Cliff, Xiang An's life was boring and boring, so he began to try to condense his martial spirit.

But this matter is extremely difficult, even with Xiang An's talent, trying this thing in the Six Realms is still a difficult thing that is almost impossible to do.

He failed again and again, which made him extremely irritable.

But because of Chu Qingxiao's incident, he was imprisoned here by Zhou Sheng and couldn't leave.

During that time, his mood became extremely irritable.

And it was at that time that the ancestral sword Shenquan Sword, which had been silent on the top of Ganquan Peak, stimulated a dark aura in the process, and poured into Xiang An's body when Xiang An's cultivation did not advance.

After that aura poured in, Xiang An's martial soul condensation became extremely smooth, this thing that should have been completely completed in his seventh or even eighth realm, but it was quickly completed in the short period of less than a month that he was imprisoned in Siguo Cliff.

The moment his memory was restored, Xiang An's eyes widened, and he said incredulously: "It's you...... Are you the Divine Spring Ancestral Sword? ”

The darkness that shrouded Xiang An was surging, and a living creature was in some kind of extreme euphoria.

"Yes!"

"Kid, I've been paying attention to you for a long time."

"You are the hope of Ganquan Peak, and now Ganquan Peak is going astray, accept me, we will reverse the mistakes of Ganquan Peak together, and let it become the greatest divine peak of Tianhang Mountain!" The voice sounded in Xiang An's mind again, hoarse and low, with a strong smell of bewitchment.

"Me?" Xiang An frowned, the only reason he had made her feel that something was wrong.

"What? Do you have any other concerns? ”

"Do you want to stay in this dungeon for the rest of your life? Want to let the people who have hurt you like this go unpunished? Or do you want to watch your beloved woman and other men talk to me? ”

The voice asked.

Xiang An's body trembled suddenly, he remembered that Chu Qingxiao destroyed his martial soul despite his pleas, and remembered the back of Zhou Ling'er and Lu Qi walking side by side.

At that moment, Xiang An's eyes were bloodshot and red.

"No!"

"That's not what I want! I want revenge! ”

As soon as Xiang An's words fell, the deep voice sounded again.

"As you wish."

As soon as he said this, the darkness that lingered around Xiang An's body suddenly surged again, and the next moment it poured into Xiang An's body like a tide, merging with him.
