Chapter 1: The Firelight Falls

Qinghe Town.

It's midday, and the town is busy, with crowds of people coming and going on both sides of the road.

And in such a busy time, in a tall and handsome brick house, a young man dressed in a dark blue and white shirt looked particularly lazy.

I saw him lying on the bed, but his hair was tied up high, and a pair of big eyes were embedded under a pair of broken sword eyebrows, and the black eyes were dripping and turning like abacus beads.

This young man's name is Xingyu Xiang, the son of General Xingyu Shino in Qinghe Town, his mother's name is Xiling, and there is also a younger sister Xingyu Yege in the family.

.........

Although the sky was already bright outside the window, Xing Yuxiang still didn't care about sleeping with the quilt wrapped.

At this moment, a hurried knock came from outside the door, followed by a female voice as pleasant as the chirping of a yellow bird.

"Brother, why are you still sleeping! Hurry up, it's dawning...... Brother, get up, if you don't get up again, I'll go in!" The girl saw that Xing Yuxiang had no intention of getting up, so she was about to push the door and enter.

Just hear a "squeak" and the door opens. The girl saw Xing Yuxiang, who was still paralyzed on the bed, came to his bedside, and helplessly pinched her waist with both hands and said:

"Really, brother, why are you snoozing again, get up quickly, when is this!" Seeing that Xing Yuxiang was still indifferent, the girl grabbed Xing Yuxiang's shoulder and shook it constantly.

Gradually opened his hazy sleepy eyes, and what caught his eye was a pair of big eyes with a pair of bright eyes under the bent willow eyebrows, wearing a double ponytail, wearing a blue cheongsam, and curved willow eyebrows. This is his sister, Xingyu Night Song...... It's a starry night song that belongs only to him.

"Huh...... Night Song, why are you?"

"Why is it me, you look at the window and it's all bright, and the people from the Li family have handed over the invitation letter and asked you to go to the Moon Tower to gather. Xingyu Yege pouted, pinched his waist and pretended to be angry.

"Ah, I forgot, Night Song, you wait a while. Hearing this, Xing Yuxiang sat up suddenly, turned over and got out of bed.

After hurriedly getting out of bed and cleaning up, he picked up his bow and rushed out of the house, as soon as he opened the door, he looked at the clear sky, and the warm sun shone on his face.

But when the people outside saw the figure coming out of the house, whether they were men, women, or children, when they saw Xing Yuxiang's figure, their normal expressions would become a little strange, and the discussion sounded.

"Why did this person come out again, he was embarrassed to come out, it was a shame for his father's face"

"Alas, don't say that, who knows that a kendo genius is born with blocked muscles and veins and can't practice! Presumably, the general is also very painful, after all, this is only one son. ”

When Xing Yuxiang heard these discussions, the corners of his lips gradually flushed with helplessness, and he felt a little funny.

If you think about it, you have experienced this kind of treatment for a long time, and you are used to this kind of abuse.

In the past, he was a kendo genius, but now he ......

He shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Look what that is!" shouted a man on the street, suddenly pointing to the sky.

Hearing this, many people on the street raised their heads and looked at the sky.

I saw a flash of fire in the sky sliding down into the depths of the jungle to the northeast.

As the crowd was talking, the ground shook violently as the huge flame fell to the ground, and after a shake, the street became chaotic.

"What's going on? ”

Xingyu Yege also ran out of the house in a panic.

"I don't know, Nightsong, you stay here first, I'll go over and see what's going on. ”

After speaking, Xing Yuxiang quickened his pace and ran quickly in the direction where the firelight fell.

"Hey, brother, wait a minute, you forgot to take your quiver!" Xingyu Yege shouted from behind, but how could Xingyuxiang hear it when he had already run away.

"Really, why is my brother always lost, alas...... Those bastards of the Li family are always bullying people, so I'd better send them over quickly. ”

Xingyu Yege reluctantly put Xing Yuxiang's quiver on his body and ran in the direction of Xing Yuxiang.

At the same time, in the jungle in the northeast direction of more than ten miles, Xing Yuxiang looked around vigilantly, and he came to a wide meadow.

As far as the eye could see, the ground in front of him was burned into a huge circular basin by flames, and the weeds in a radius of several miles inside the basin were instantly burned to ashes.

A silver bronze sword was stuck in the charred earth, the blade shining silver white in the sunlight.

"Huh?...... Did someone stick it in there?" Xing Yuxiang pondered suspiciously.

But before he could think about it, after flashes one by one, he fainted.

At this time, he opened his eyes again, and there was a white expanse in front of him, and just when he was surprised, a mysterious and rough man's voice was slowly calling: "Xingyu...... Xiang!"

"Who is it?...... Who's calling me?"

Xing Yuxiang looked around vigilantly, obviously there was a voice, but he didn't find anyone's breath.

He slowed his pace and walked in the direction of the sound, observing the movement around him.

Star ...... House... Xiang!"

The mysterious voice sounded again, as if it was like an ancient call, Xing Yuxiang looked around more vigilantly, but there was still no human breath next to the jungle.

"Strange...... There's no one around...... Could it be this sword?"

Xing Yuxiang frowned, thinking in confusion, and then he looked at the silver bronze sword on the ground in surprise and said.

There was nothing on the ground except this sword, but there was something wrong with this sword.

"This sword can actually speak just now...... It's so weird......"

He slowed down his pace and approached the sword and asked, "Were you calling me just now?"

The sword didn't speak, fell into silence, Xing Yuxiang raised his voice and asked again, but the sword still didn't move.

"Strange, was I hallucinating just now?"

He scratched the back of his head, looked around him and thought in confusion.

Then Xing Yuxiang stepped forward, just as he was about to touch the hilt of the sword with his hand.

Suddenly, a burning sensation hit the back of his hand, and then another vague memory came to mind.....

"Ah..... What the hell is going on!It hurts..... What the hell is going on......!"

The sword glowed with a flickering silver light, and from the sword came a "poof!puff!" like a heartbeat.

Xing Yuxiang looked at the sword, and suddenly, his eyes widened, and the white light of a memory fragment poured into his mind......

Through the white light emitted by this sword, Xing Yuxiang saw that a raging fire broke out in his hometown of Qinghe Town, and the crowd on the street was like fleeing prey.

They ran desperately, and behind them were a large number of black monsters that resembled human shapes.

When they meet the villagers, they open their bloody mouths, stretch out their long tentacles to trap the villagers, and drag them into their mouths to eat...

"Help! there's a monster eating people!"

"Who's going to save us!"

A large crowd of people in the streets shouted and ran desperately, but in the middle of the crowd was a girl with short silver hair.

She had a pair of willow eyebrows, and looked at Xing Yuxiang with very sad eyes, and she showed a helpless expression.

The silver short-haired girl shook her head, sighed deeply and said, "Alas... Even if you are a future savior, some fates can be changed.

And ...... Some fates are the calamities you are destined to encounter. It is an indisputable fact that you can't save them right now, and it's a fate that you can't change. ”

After that, the silver-haired girl stretched out her hand to Xing Yuxiang, and she continued, "Now you are the fourth successor of this sword, and someday in the future. ”

"The black dragon sealed by the Three Emperors will break the seal and come to the world again, and you are the key to defeating the black dragon. ”

I saw that after the girl finished speaking, a silver-white light flashed from the tips of her outstretched fingers....

Before Xing Yuxiang could react, the silver white light was getting brighter and brighter, and it was difficult for him to open his eyes.

After a while, the soreness in the eyes gradually subsided, and when I came back to my senses......

Xing Yuxiang opened his eyes and found that he had already picked up the silver bronze sword in his hand.

On the back of his hand, someone didn't know who had tattooed a silver dragon shape, overlapping the inverted sword shape.

Looking at the surrounding grass, the grass is still green, and there is no trace of burning.

"What's going on? Who was playing a prank? Strange... And what happened to that scene just now?"

"Alas, it's strange how you can dream in broad daylight, forget it, let's ignore these for now. ”

Xing Yuxiang recalled the dream he had just had, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

There were some doubts and some uneasiness in his heart, and his heart was always pounding, as if he was admonishing him from the bottom of his heart.

However, Xing Yuxiang still has a big question mark, who is that silver-haired girl?

And whether to believe the picture in this sword, Xing Yuxiang's heart hesitated......

Then Xing Yuxiang took the silver bronze sword in his hand and looked at it carefully.

The weight of the sword was very light, but the blade paused, and in the center of the link between the sword and the hilt, there was a diamond-shaped crystal embedded in the sword.

"Brother...... Call...... Whew, total ...... Finally caught up. ”

Xingyu Yege, who was tired and out of breath, ran behind Xingyu Xiang, bent down and said tiredly.

"Nightsong, why are you here? Didn't I let you stay home?"

He heard Xingyu's shouting and quickly turned around.

"Whew...... Huh, brother, where did you pick up that sword? ”

After Xingyu Yege rested for a while, he saw that the sword in his brother's hand was very strange, so he stepped forward and bent down to take a closer look at the mysterious bronze sword and asked.

"I don't know.... Anyway, I picked it up here, and I don't know if it fell from the sky, or if someone stuck it there. ”

Xing Yuxiang shook his head and said, then he pointed to the fire-scorched ground in front of him.

"Brother, where did you get the tattoos on your hands? I don't remember that you still have a habit of tattooing. ”

While Xingyu Yege was looking at the sword, she subconsciously noticed the dragon tattoo on the back of her brother's hand, so she asked puzzledly.

"Oh, you said this, this is what I didn't know when I was holding this sword, I felt that the back of my hand was very soupy, and when I came back to my senses, it was already engraved, and I don't know who stabbed it. ”

"A special sword indeed..... Who left it?.... Forget it, oh yes, I almost forgot about business, brother, you left in too much of a hurry, and you didn't even take the quiver. ”

Xingyu Yege was very curious to figure out the source of the sword, but he couldn't think of a reason, so he had to give up asking, and then Yege unloaded the quiver on his back and handed it out.

"Oh, look at my memory...... Thank you so much Night Song. ”

Xing Yuxiang patted his forehead lightly with his hand, and awkwardly took the quiver in Xingyu Night Singer and thanked him.

"I don't know what you're thinking today, brother, so absent-minded, the buckle of the quiver you said yesterday was broken and I was here to repair it, why did you forget it today?"

Xingyu Yege raised his arms very affectionately, and his thrush eyes were full of gentleness and cheerfulness:

"Brother, let's go back to the Moon Tower in the town, the Li family and the others are still waiting for you over there."

"Good. ”

Xing Yuxiang smiled and nodded, ready to rush towards Qinghe Town with the girl.

After a cup of tea, the two of them walked in the jungle, but before they could take a few steps, they were stopped by a person in front of them.

This person looked at Xing Yuxiang with a playful look and said:

"Yo, isn't this the first day of our Tianhe Town? What...... If you're not playing in the mud at home, what are you doing here?"

Yeyu Xingge looked bored and glared at this person viciously

But this person didn't seem to see it, as if he didn't see it, and came straight to Xing Yuxiang's side with a few dog legs, and his demeanor was very arrogant.

"It's been a long time, Waste Xiang!"

"You're a waste, your whole family is a waste"

Xingyu Yege hurriedly fought back, and when she saw this person, she was furious, just because of this person.

As a result, her brother has heard many laughs and discussions about him in the past few years.

However, Xing Yuxiang's expression was flat, as if he didn't care.

He hadn't been able to cultivate for five whole years, so he naturally knew what this person was here for!

As long as he is no longer interesting, he will naturally leave.

But what he didn't expect was that this man actually stretched out his hand to his sister.

Seeing this, Xing Yuxiang was a little annoyed, so he directly protected his sister behind him and stared at this person: "Wang Qiwen, don't go too far, you bastard." ”

"Hey, hey, I've got even more excessive! Little ones, beat me up with this piece of shit. ”

This Wang Qiwen seemed to think of something, gritted his teeth and said to his subordinates.

Seeing this scene, the onlookers looked at each other, and they couldn't figure out which one this Young Master Wang was going to make.

"You are a waste that everyone laughs at, and you dare to scold me if you can't practice, give me a hard beating!"

The young man was indignant, and his heart was full of jealousy and hatred for Xing Yuxiang and a deformed sense of pleasure.

Those subordinates naturally didn't dare to disobey the young master's wishes, and rushed to Xing Yuxiang and beat them up.

And Wang Qiwen laughed sickly when he looked at the scene in front of him.

Because the two are of the same age, Wang Qiwen has always regarded Xing Yuxiang as a competitor.

But seven years ago, no matter how hard Wang Qiwen tried to prove himself, he was always steadily pressed by Xing Yuxiang.

Every time he competed, he was defeated by Xing Yuxiang's swordsmanship, and in those years, he had been living in the shadow of Xing Yuxiang and had never won once!

Even the head of the Wang family has always compared Xing Yuxiang with him.

.........

At this time, he stared at Xing Yuxiang very happily for a moment, and suddenly laughed loudly, and said:

"Who didn't expect that the former genius of the dignified hall fell to the mortal dust in the blink of an eye, not only could he not cultivate, but now he was bullied by my subordinates at will, hahaha!"

Because Xing Yuxiang was protecting his sister, all the attacks fell on him

"Poof......

A mouthful of blood spat out of his mouth, and it happened to land on the silver bronze sword that he had just gotten his hands on.

Because everyone didn't pay attention, they didn't find that this sword actually absorbed all of Xing Yuxiang's blood.

......

"Woo, brother, don't protect it, you'll be killed. ”

Xingyu Yege looked at his pale brother and said very sadly.

Xing Yuxiang's log booklet

I once dreamed in my sleep that I was alone with the golden sword, facing a black dragon, but when I woke up from the dream and found that everything was back to reality, I was woken up by the shouts of the night song, and I forgot the important event of going to the Moon Tower today, and when I went out of the house, I saw a fire falling from the sky.

I searched all the way to the place where the firelight fell but accidentally picked up a sword This sword made me see a scene that shocked me very much, in the scene in the sword, my hometown Qinghe Town seemed to be destroyed by unknown monsters, I thought at first, all this is an illusion, but when I returned to my hometown, I was completely dumbfounded.....
