A playful smile appeared on the corner of Bing Tear's mouth, staring at Qi Jian, who was holding alone in front of him, and said: "What an infatuated boy, he can indeed be a good chess piece, but this girl has never been willing to use external forces, which is a pity." ”

Ice Tears turned her gaze to the woman beside her who was wearing a mask, who had not said a word, or even moved, like a living corpse, and spat out a chilling cruel word.

***

Xuantian on the hill saw that Qi Jian was already injured at this time, although he didn't know why he deliberately ran to protect the enemy, but he still felt that he had an obligation to save him back, so he asked Qing Ling: "Senior uncle, Brother Qi has been injured, if he continues like this, he will definitely die of blood loss, I must go and rescue him back." If you watch him die like this, you will surely be condemned by your conscience in the future. ”

Qing Ling bowed his head lightly and said, "I should save him back, but it's not you." With your ability, it will be difficult to bring him back unscathed, so leave it to me this time. ”

Xuantian understood the depth of Qing Ling's strength better than anyone else, although he was still worried, but he had to admit that it was much more reliable for Uncle Shi to save him than to go himself.

"Uncle Shi must be more careful. ”

Ice Tears gave an extremely ruthless order directly to the masked woman. Her personality seems to have been distorted a long time ago, and now she has become numb. She indulged herself in such a way that she had given up on herself, almost forgetting what she had been, and at some point she began to take pleasure in hurting others.

"Zhu Yan, this man standing in front of you is an enemy, kill him. ”

The woman wearing the mask, whose name was Zhu Yan, had been staring at this man with her blank and cloudy eyes since the moment Qi Jian stood in front of her without hesitation.

In her vague consciousness, it seemed that an unforgettable memory was about to be awakened, and a strange feeling that had not been felt for a long time filled her mind, but it was not strong enough to awaken her consciousness into a state of ignorance.

As time passed, Zhu Yan saw that the man was hit by an arrow, and blood was dripping down from his body, but he did not move half a step, and always stood in front of him.

The consciousness that has been blocked and unable to think is now beginning to attack the invisible confinement, and it is desperate to pursue freedom.

One question after another formed in her mind, asking herself why the man was so desperate to stand in front of her, trying to elicit a fragment of her own memory.

However, just before the doubts were about to be solved, Ice Tears gave a ruthless order.

"Kill him... Kill him..."

The sound of ice tears echoed in his mind, and I don't know when this cold voice was suddenly recognized by his own consciousness as a command that must be obeyed.

As soon as the consciousness receives the signal transmitted by the sound of the ice tear, the body will mechanically carry out the commands contained in the signal.

Zhu Yan's consciousness seeking freedom was forcibly interrupted, and she took a few steps forward, stepped out of the barrier, and quickly raised her hands in front of her chest, making a strange movement of bending her bow and arrows.

However, the miraculous vision happened just after she made this action, and a purple light flashed between her hands, and a purple longbow formed with spiritual power was created. This kind of efficiency in using spiritual power, looking at the world, there are few people who can compare

Draft.

After the longbow was formed, a dazzling red light slowly appeared in the center of the longbow, gradually turning into the shape of an arrow.

The body of this spiritual arrow was orange-red, and its shape resembled a cluster of red flames that were blazing. The arrow is actually a lifelike dragon head of the primeval Yanlong, all the details are the same as the legendary Yanlong, and the divine power of the ancestral witch Zhurong's mount is reproduced here, which shows that Zhu Yan's precision in controlling spiritual power has reached the peak realm.

The head of the flame dragon renders the heavens and the earth in a crimson flame, an eternal flame that will not be extinguished through the ages.

A scorching heat wave released from the head of the Yan Dragon spread within a radius of ten zhang, but the heat contained in these heat waves was already quite terrifying, and the surrounding temperature skyrocketed to about 100 degrees in an instant.

If ordinary people were in such a hot environment, they would probably die in a short time, but the barrier of ice tears could completely isolate the heat, so the disciples of the Soul Worship were not affected in any way.

Qi Jian, who was standing outside the barrier, was not very comfortable. His internal strength is profound, and his physical strength is far beyond ordinary people, and the high temperature will make him feel extremely uncomfortable, but it will not burn him. Although it seems to be so, he is now injured, and his physical strength has been depleted a lot, and he is in a moment of weakness. At this moment, as soon as the heat wave hits, his body immediately can't support it, and he is overwhelmed and about to fall.

But he didn't!

Qi Jian inserted the long sword into the soil under his feet, using the sword as the only pillar of his body, standing on the sword!

Since he decided to become the strongest shield for those behind him, he had to hold on until the last moment, which was his only and only remaining faith.

Some of the soldiers on the hill stopped attacking, although they still didn't understand why Qi Jian was willing to become the enemy's guard, but at this moment, Qi Jian's standing posture was deeply infectious.

The two shocking wounds on the thin body were still dripping with blood, and the weak life could disappear at any time, how desolate and tragic this scene was in the eyes of the soldiers.

The terrible mountain wind blew, and the hem of Qi Jian's blood-stained clothes danced with the wind. Red, which originally represented the color of festivity, now interprets the meaning of sadness.

Qi Jian seemed to feel that he had touched the brink of death.

He turned his head and gazed affectionately at the figure that he was always thinking about with his remaining strength, and tears seemed to flash in the corners of his eyes. There is relief and regret in his eyes, and it is gratifying that his shield can hold on for so long, and the regret is obvious.

He has reached the limit of his physical strength and can no longer support it, and the duties of the "Guardian Knight" have come to an end.

Qi Jian's gaze only fell on the beautiful eyes with lilac pupils behind the mask, and the bow in his hand that could kill him at any time, but he chose to turn a blind eye.

This last glance, although I was not able to see her full face, it was enough for Qi Jian.

"Xiao Yan, your brother Qi can't accompany you anymore, you must take care of it in the future... Myself. ”

The hoarse and vain voice struggled to utter his last words.

Several arrows broke through the air again, aiming at Qi Jian, who had run out of oil and could no longer resist.

At this time, a white shadow flashed from the sky, saving Qi Jian from the crisis, it was Qing Ling, who came belatedly, but also just right.

It turned out that when Qing Ling just wanted to go down to save people, he saw a series of actions of Bing Tear and Zhu Yan, and for a while, a glimmer of thought arose to wait and see what happened. It wasn't until Xuantian reminded her again that she reacted, hurriedly used all her strength to control the sky, and rescued Qi Jian from the deadly crisis between the lightning and flint.

Ye Yichen, who had been hiding outside the encirclement to fight, took out a blue flag from his arms at this moment and held it high in the air.

After Marshal Zou Xiong saw this flag, he nodded and said in his heart: "There is no way for our army's attack to penetrate the barrier laid by the enemy leader, and it is time to enter the third stage." ”

Then he opened his mouth and ordered: "All the soldiers obey the order, stop all attacks, and stand by in place." Heroes, I'll leave it to you. ”

All the soldiers also felt unanimous that since the enemy had built a barrier with spiritual power, all attacks had been blocked and in vain. It's just that the marshal didn't give the order, and it was not good to stop the attack without authorization. At this time, hearing the marshal's order, the soldiers very quickly stopped the uninterrupted offensive.

Qing Ling saw that the Penglai army had stopped the offensive, so he did not return to the hills, but treated Qi Jian's injuries on the spot and used healing spells to help him heal.

"Fortunately, his injuries are not very serious, otherwise I am afraid that he would really be worried about his life. Qing Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the guilt in his heart calmed down a little.

***

"Xiao Yan... Brother Qi..."

Zhu Yan's consciousness began a fierce battle between heaven and man, and the most precious part of the past in the depths of his memory was about to come out.

The flame dragon bow in her hand disappeared with the transformation of consciousness, and a voice that made her feel warm from the bottom of her heart kept calling her, guiding her soul to escape from the "indestructible" cage.

"Xiao Yan, thank you for always being by my side. ”

But it was you who accompanied me and made me say goodbye to loneliness.

"Xiao Yan, I'm in good health, don't worry. ”

I am the one who has hurt you, and you are comforting me.

"Xiao Yan, forget me. ”

Are you going to leave me? I don't want to be alone again.

"Xiao Yan, your brother Qi can't accompany you anymore..."

No, I can't let you leave me again, not even for a moment!

The mask shattered into pieces, revealing a beautiful face.

Crescent moon eyebrows, red phoenix eyes, and perfect facial features on the petite face. The lilac pupils shimmered with a dreamlike glow, as if they could snatch the souls of all who looked at her.

Compared with her, Bing Tear's appearance was immediately overshadowed, even Qing Ling on the side looked at her at the moment, she was amazed, and she didn't dare to say that her appearance could be better than the other party.

The moment Zhu Yan came to his senses, he began to look for his sweetheart, but found that he was seriously injured, unconscious, and was being given first aid by a stunning beauty in a white gauze dress.

The ruthless command in his heart made Zhu Yan's face as cold as a glacier that has not melted for thousands of years.

She turned around, faced with the ice tears that looked a little flustered at this time, and said a creepy word.

"Anyone who hurts Brother Qi, don't even think about surviving. ”
