Chapter 1: Brothers Against Brothers
The night is as cool as water, and the stars hang high.
Although it was the middle of the night, the Tongfu Inn was still lit up, reflecting a mottled and dilapidated outdoor.
There was a young man in white sitting outside the inn, I saw him leaning on the railing, holding a jar of old wine in his left hand, and holding a sea bowl in his right hand.
The young man picked up the sea bowl, then raised his head and drank it dry, and suddenly his heart jumped: I used to take advantage of this time to assassinate others, I don't know if I will die like this!
This young man's surname is Qin Hongyun, he is the only son of Qin Mutian, who is known as the "No. 1 Sword in the World", Fang is in his early twenties, and he has reached the level of the peak of his qi realm, and among the younger generation, there are few opponents.
Qin Hongyun put down the wine bowl and said in his mouth: "The green silk is three thousand zhang, and the bright eyes are unparalleled in the world." Raise your head and be ashamed of the bright moon, and bow your head to spend a dark wound. For some reason, he recited the poem with a look of pain on his face.
Immediately, he sighed lightly and said faintly: "The poem is here, the wine is there, but you have left me forever, who do you say to you when you are lonely?!" It turned out that this poem was written when he first met his wife, and although the poem was there at this time, his wife had died.
Qin Hongyun was reminiscing about his deceased wife, but a sigh suddenly came from the roof of the inn, and then a black shadow rolled down, his body was light and agile, and he was better than the tanuki.
Qin Hongyun's heart moved: This person is on the roof, but I don't realize it at all, I think he is also a strong man at the peak of the Qi Realm, and I am afraid that it will be a little tricky to form such an enemy!
Although he felt that it was tricky, he was not afraid at all, and his eyes were burning at the black shadow that was walking towards him.
The black shadow stopped three steps away from Qin Hongyun, and his eyes that were as bright as stars stared at him tightly, and suddenly said angrily: "Qin Hongyun, you coward, did the death of a woman defeat you? Look at your current appearance, what is the difference between you and a wild dog? Are you worthy of your father?"
"That's enough!" Qin Hongyun only heard the voice, and knew who the person was coming, and immediately shouted with red eyes, "You don't have to worry about my affairs! Don't tell me anything about women like clothes, Lao Tzu doesn't understand!"
After being silent for a long time, Qin Hongyun said in a low voice: "Shaotian, you haven't loved, you won't understand." If you still treat me as a brother, just stay with me for a long time, instead of saying anything!"
This Shaotian is Gu Shaotian, a famous swordsman in the rivers and lakes, his parents died when he was a child, he was raised by Qin Mutian, and he was a classmate with Qin Hongyun, and the two were like brothers.
Gu Shaotian bowed his head and said, "Okay, I'll get drunk with you!"
The two of them sat on the ground, taking the sky as a guest and the earth as a table, drinking a glass of wine, until the east turned white, and drank more than 40 catties of spirit, and then they were slightly drunk.
Gu Shaotian saw that Qin Hongyun's face was no longer as cold as it was just now, so he said again: "Hongyun, for the sake of brotherhood, there is something I have to say, otherwise it will be like a fish in my throat!"
He didn't wait for Qin Hongyun to speak, and then said: "Don't go to Zhuge Zhengxiong for revenge, with your current strength, you are definitely not his opponent! Even if the two of us join forces, it will be difficult to succeed! After all, there is a whole sea realm difference between the Qi realm and the Dan realm......
The strength of the people in the rivers and lakes can be roughly divided into five levels, namely the quenching body, the qi realm, the sea realm, the Dan realm, and the transformation realm, and the gap between each level and the previous level can be said to be the difference between heaven and earth, so it is no wonder that Gu Shaotian feels that he is going to die.
Qin Hongyun stared at him coldly, his eyes were like knives, and his voice was like ice: "Don't mention this matter again, otherwise please don't have today's joy!"
Gu Shaotian didn't mention it anymore, and lowered his head and drank at the moment.
The sun has risen in the east, and the first rays of golden light have fallen.
Gu Shaotian secretly gritted his teeth, as if he had made up some kind of determination, and immediately smiled at Qin Hongyun and said, "The wine is already insufficient, I'll move some more!"
Qin Hongyun also smiled, and then continued to bow his head and drink, but he drank all the rest of the wine alone, but he still didn't see Gu Shaotian come back, so he remembered the sweetness of the past again.
Just as he was drunk and drowsy, a murderous aura suddenly came from behind him, as if a sharp sword was stabbing at great speed.
Qin Hongyun took advantage of the momentum of bowing his head, rolled to the side and dodged, and secretly said in his heart: Since entering the rivers and lakes, it is the first time that I have been forced into such an embarrassing situation, I want to see where you are sacred!
But when he stood up and saw the assassin, he couldn't help but tremble, that person was not sacred, but his good brother Gu Shaotian.
Qin Hongyun trembled as if he had been struck by lightning, and retreated tremblingly, and said weakly: "Why? God, why are you doing this! It's not enough for you to take her away, do you still want to take him away?"
Gu Shaotian pressed over step by step, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth, and said unhurriedly: "Don't pretend, young master." If you hadn't doubted me, you wouldn't have been able to dodge that sword just now!"
"It turns out that you have even calculated this, do you want to kill me like this?" Qin Hongyun also became angry, "Don't spend the belly of a gentleman with your villainous heart!The reason why I was able to dodge that sword was entirely because I was drunk!"
Gu Shaotian's face turned cold, and the long sword in his hand stabbed out.
His sword was not only at a tricky angle, but also as flexible as a snake, no matter how Qin Hongyun dodged, the tip of the sword was pointed at his throat, and it was a fatal move.
Qin Hongyun took a step back, then picked up an object wrapped in coarse cloth on the table and struck at Gu Shaotian's long sword.
"Dang!"
As soon as the blades of the two touched, a crisp sound suddenly sounded, and a burst of sparks immediately splashed.
Gu Shaotian's right hand was numb, he couldn't help but take a step back, looked up, and just saw Qin Hongyun retreating "puff", and immediately a smile appeared on his cold face, and said coldly: "Draw your sword!"
Hearing this, Qin Hongyun looked at him while slowly unraveling the layer of coarse cloth, and in a short time, a long sword with a dazzling silver light was revealed.
"Is it really the Rainbow Shattering Sword?"
Gu Shaotian saw that the long sword was silver-colored, slightly wider than an ordinary sword, and even squinted his eyes and recognized it.
It is rumored that there is a mysterious weapon spectrum ranking in the rivers and lakes, and this broken rainbow sword is the first on the list.
Gu Shaotian's eyes gradually became hot, and then he licked his lips and said with a smile: "This kind of artifact can only exert its due power in my hands!"
Qin Hongyun listened to him, only to feel that this person was extremely unfamiliar, and immediately snorted coldly, stopped talking nonsense, held the scabbard with one hand, and the hilt with the other, and slowly pulled out the broken rainbow sword.
The rainbow light suddenly appeared, and the entire inn trembled, and then a dragon groan came from the scabbard, as if it had been released from its cage.
Hearing the sound of the dragon's groan, Gu Shaotian was not only not afraid, but became more and more excited, and muttered: "This broken rainbow sword can rank first in the weapon spectrum, and there are really some doorways!"
His face flushed with excitement, as if the broken rainbow sword was already in his pocket.
Qin Hongyun held the Broken Rainbow Sword in his hand, awe-inspiring like a god, and frowned: "The power of the Broken Rainbow Sword, you should know very well, do we have to live and die for you?"
"Less nonsense, let's make a move!"
Gu Shaotian snorted, and then his body swept out, and the purple light of the long sword in his hand was sheng, and it slashed towards the top of Qin Hongyun's head.
Qin Hongyun thought of his friendship with him, brotherhood, and was unwilling to use the power of the artifact, so he hurriedly urged the true qi in his body, wrapped the Broken Rainbow Sword and greeted the purple sword.
"Bang!"
The sword rays condensed by Qin Hongyun were pale golden, and as soon as they came into contact with the purple sword rays, they began to erode each other, but the strength of the two was almost the same, and no one could swallow anyone, and finally they exploded and made a loud noise.
The two fought until dawn, and it was still difficult to separate, Gu Shaotian knew that he was at a loss, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, but the sword he condensed was getting better and better.
Qin Hongyun calmed down and said in his heart: I want the two of us to be from the same family, and our skills are similar, if we are in a hurry, we will definitely lose.
After fighting for a while, Qin Hongyun's clothes were already soaked, and his sense of powerlessness was getting stronger and stronger, and he was about to lose, but Gu Shaotian showed a flaw.
Qin Hongyun was overjoyed in his heart, and used his last strength to attack the flaw, and suddenly the scene of the two of them pointing out the country in the past appeared in front of him, and his heart trembled: If I go down with this sword, Shaotian will definitely die, is this really what I am happy to see?
Masters compete, victory or defeat often depends on an instant, just when Qin Hongyun hesitated, the flaw had disappeared without a trace, and when he heard a snort, Gu Shaotian's long sword had pierced into his shoulder.
Gu Shaotian leaned forward, wanting to put Qin Hongyun to death, Qin Hongyun ignored the sword wound and swung his sword to slash at Gu Shaotian's waist, if he didn't withdraw his sword to save him, he would inevitably end up in a different place.
Sure enough, Gu Shaotian was reluctant to burn the jade, jumped backwards suddenly, and then smiled and blew off the blood on the sword, and said to Qin Hongyun: "Even if you are in your heyday, you are not my opponent, let alone now?"
With a sneering smile on his face, he said disdainfully: "However, if you are willing to kneel down and shout at me three times for mercy, I can consider letting you go!"
Qin Hongyun covered the bleeding wound with his left hand, and the corners of his eyes twitched, but then returned to normal, and said lightly: "Although you shouted for mercy, but today the uncle is in a bad mood, so he will still take your dog's life!"
The corners of Gu Shaotian's mouth hooked, and he squinted his eyes and said, "Who do you think you are?"
Qin Hongyun's eyes were like torches, staring at Gu Shaotian with a burning eye, and he said with a cold face: "Although I am at odds with my father, he only has one son after all, do you think he doesn't pass on some special things to me?"
Gu Shaotian's face changed suddenly, and he no longer gave Qin Hongyun a chance to breathe, and immediately raised his sword and wrapped it around.
The broken rainbow sword was stained with blood, emitting a faint rainbow light, and the sword body began to tremble continuously.
Qin Hongyun's hand trembled, his face turned ugly, and he could clearly perceive what terrifying power the Broken Rainbow Sword contained at this time.
Immediately, the shattered rainbow sword let out a low dragon groan again, and Qin Hongyun could no longer control that force, so he had to wave his hand and blast it out.
Gu Shaotian saw that the broken rainbow sword turned into a pale golden dragon, and swept towards him with a violent wind, and his eyes, which had always been ancient, suddenly flashed with fear, and his face became pale.
But he didn't sit still, but desperately instilled his true qi into the long sword in his hand, and soon condensed a purple light of the fierce tiger.
The two beasts of dragon and tiger, one is the lord of the heavens and the other is the overlord of the earth, and as soon as they meet, they will be separated, and they immediately bump into each other with red eyes and roaring.
However, the imaginary loud noise did not come out, because the moment it was contacted, the purple tiger had already dissipated, and the pale golden dragon still flew forward.
"It's... How is that possible?!"
Gu Shaotian saw that his full strength was so unbearable, his face immediately turned pale, looking at the pale golden dragon that was rapidly growing, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, it seemed that this Qin Hongyun was really not as simple as it seemed.
"Poof!"
The pale golden dragon crashed headlong into Gu Shaotian and knocked him out on the spot, only to feel that all his internal organs had been shattered, and a mouthful of blood was almost spurting out like a pillar of blood. The aftermath of the shock spread rapidly in all directions, and the entire house was razed to the ground.
