Hengmu Liren lowered his head, the golden flower in his hand didn't know where to go, standing in the night, lonely like a wronged child, the love in his voice was still so stubborn and unwilling.

"No matter what the first sword is...... Even with this last sword, you can't hurt my roots! You're not my opponent! So you don't dare to use your sword at me! You don't want to use such words to mess with my Dao heart. ”

Liu Yiqing kept coughing up blood, his face was like snow, and there was a sense of pity that couldn't be concealed by the night: "I'm going to die, I didn't use the sword before, and I won't use the sword again in the future, then, no one will ever know the answer, and you don't know if you can catch my sword, in the future cultivation journey, you may be able to dominate the world, but tonight's regret will always be with you." ”

The walls of the imperial city collapsed, bricks and gravel were everywhere, the water in the moat was quiet, the willow branches that had been cut off and fell gradually sank to the bottom of the water, and in the dead silence, suddenly flowers bloomed.

The flower and the night seem to be integrated, there is no pink color, no brilliant gold edge, just pure black, the petals are dense and difficult to count, and it can be vaguely distinguished that it is a peach blossom.

The spade appeared in the night, and the man came out of the night, the silver mask on his face that had been beaten by years of wind and rain, and was no longer so bright, like an old thing, covered with a vague layer of mist.

Just like the black peach blossom, this man used to have a brilliant gold, but now he gave all the gold to others, and kept the pure black for himself, his clothes, his eyes, and his breath were so cold and heavy, like ink that was about to dry up in the inkstone.

Liu Yiqing looked at the person who came out of the night, and the expression on his face became a little complicated. It was a little dignified, completely different from when he faced Yokogi Tachito before, because he sensed that this person was purer and stronger than before. I couldn't help but start worrying about those Tang people in the academy.

......

......

Long Qing walked into the night and came to the front of the imperial city.

Yokogi Liren didn't react, still staring at Liu Yiqing on the chariot.

Long Qing looked at his somewhat lonely back, as well as the green clothes that had just been stained with blood. He was silent for a while, and then looked at the moon in the night dome, his face showing regret.

Tonight, the Xiling Temple sent such an important figure as Yokomu Liren to Linkang City, dispatched five powerhouses of the Knowing Destiny Realm, including Zhao Sishou, and two thousand heavy horses came to attack, and a powerful formation was laid out around the imperial city in advance, and there were ...... He had been standing in the night.

In this kind of formation, in addition to letting the Southern Jin Dynasty return to Haotian's embrace and kill Liu Yiqing, who betrayed the temple, naturally has some other ideas. For example, kill those strong people who came to rescue the Sword Pavilion.

There were very few people who dared to lend a helping hand to the Sword Pavilion before the power of the temple. To be exact. It could only be those people in the academy, and Long Qing judged that the person who was most likely to appear in Linkang City was Ning Que.

The academy is still about rules and reasoning. The Xiling Temple has arranged so many truths for the academy, at least of course, the former academy can't solve those truths. Therefore, they could only watch the temple exterminate Protestantism, and watch the temple enter the north into the Southern Jin Dynasty, but they could not do anything.

Only Ning Que has never been rude or reasonable, so in Long Qing's opinion, he is very likely to appear in Linkang City tonight, which makes him feel very satisfied and look forward to it, but just like Yokoki Liren was disappointed that Liu Yiqing's last sword did not stab him, he was also a little disappointed at this time, because Ning Que never appeared.

"There will be no one from the academy, and it is really a waste for the temple to put on such a big formation. ”

The corners of Liu Yiqing's lips were dripping with blood, but her voice was still so clear.

Long Qing looked at him and said calmly: "I don't think it's a waste, because I won't underestimate any opponent, especially ...... You are underestimated by many people. ”

Liu Yiqing is Liu Bai's own brother, he was unknown when he was a teenager, and he was blinded by Ning Que at the side gate of the academy in his debut, as Long Qing said in the night before, he later entered the palace with a single sword, killed the emperor of the Southern Jin Dynasty, and opened the beginning of the great era, but his reputation is still not high enough, in the eyes of many cultivators, he is far inferior to Ning Que and Long Qing, and he is not qualified to take over the position left by Liu Bai in the world.

But Long Qing didn't think so, because he had a very similar experience to Liu Yiqing, he had also been defeated by Ning Que's men, and he had to pay a very heavy price to rise again - Liu Yiqing was blind in both eyes, but he was able to hold a sword to break through the threshold of knowing his fate and seize the sword path to create a sword, he knew how difficult it was, and what a strong will it represented.

"You are the master of the Sword Pavilion, your sword represents your will, if you don't pierce the horizontal wood, naturally it can't be really a righteous move, but because you want to kill the emperor and those royal families. ”

Long Qing looked at Liu Yiqing and said: "Those people on the city wall are dead, the Southern Jin Dynasty will inevitably fall into civil strife, and it will not be possible to restore peace in a short period of time, and the temple wants to borrow the military and national strength of the Southern Jin Dynasty, so naturally it is not so convenient, this is the will of your Sword Pavilion...... Hurt yourself and hurt your enemies?"

The white cloth on Liu Yiqing's face was broken, and he was dripping blood, and said: "The last six words are extremely incisive, but what I said to Hengmu is right, many years ago, the temple wanted to promote the name of your god son, and many strong cultivators died in your hands, and now the temple is ready to launch him, why should I fulfill you?"

Long Qing said: "This ...... It's exactly what I don't understand, the Southern Jin Dynasty has opened the door, since you can't return to heaven, why don't you choose to leave? Why do you want to die for the Tang people?"

"Many years ago, my eldest brother asked me to go to the academy to wash my sword, but I was injured by Ning Que and became blind. ”

"But you still chose to stand on the side of the academy. ”

"It's not my choice, it's the eldest brother's choice. ”

Liu Yiqing shook his head with difficulty and said, "I don't understand why the eldest brother wants to help the academy, but since you want to do this, then I will do it." ”

Long Qing said: "Tang people have no faith, what is the meaning of your insistence?"

"The meaning lies in oneself. ”

Liu Yiqing's expression looked a little tired, and said indifferently: "I don't like the Tang people, I don't like the academy, I don't like the temple, I don't like you gods, I don't understand why the eldest brother wants to help the academy, I don't understand why all the people of the Southern Jin Dynasty want to help the temple, the eldest brother is dead, the people of the Southern Jin Dynasty regard the Sword Pavilion as a ghost domain, I look forward at no one, look back at no one, look at the side without companions, I have become a wisp of lonely soul, a wild ghost ......"

"But even if it is a lonely soul and a wild ghost, you can do something, if the Tang army comes to invade, the disciples of the Sword Pavilion should resist, and if Xiling comes, you should also resist, even if you can't fight, you must always fight first. ”

"The way to self-destruction is stupid and hard to praise. ”

"I heard that when the Lord entered Chang'an, tens of millions of Tang people died, and now the temple has entered Linkang, and I have tens of millions of people in the Southern Jin Dynasty, looking at each other with their hands, I think someone must show some attitude......

"If one person dies, it's still better after all. ”

Liu Yiqing felt that his lungs were burning, and his ruptured heart was like a collapsing river embankment, so he paused painfully, and said with a difficult smile: "Since it is death, of course I can't let you go too well." ”

......

......

(I miscalculated my physical condition, and after opening that single chapter the day before yesterday, I started thinking seriously about the story, and then my blood pressure started to be unstable, that fluctuation...... I really want to scold my mother. ）
