"What the hell are you ...... For what?" Bai Xie blocked Tian Xu's sword with his blade armguard, but he showed unbelievable eyes, stared at Tian Xu, and kept babbling in his mouth, "What are you for...... Do you want to do that?"

"What am I ...... for" Tian Xu didn't understand what Bai Xie wanted to ask for a while, and asked in parallel while trying to pull out his long sword.

"Your martial arts skills are not simple, you must be an outstanding person in the Central Plains martial arts, and you have also defeated many masters in the world......" Bai Xie continued to ask, as if he wanted to find the answer he had always wanted from Tian Xu, so he continued to ask, "You have defeated so many people, and now you are risking your life to break into the Yangzhou prefect, why is it? fame, profit, or what?"

Suddenly hearing such a question, Tian Xu suddenly didn't get used to it. Although Bai Xie's tone was surprising, his eyes that symbolized a cold-blooded killer had not changed much, and Tian Xu still didn't dare to take it lightly. However, since such a question was asked, Tian Xu, who had a character that always answered questions, still smiled and said: "Hmph, I really didn't expect that, as a master guard of Yangzhou Prefect, you who have killed so many people, would actually ask such a question......

"I have killed a lot of people, in the Western Regions, I have defeated many masters, I have a supreme reputation, and the title of 'Ghost King' also makes them fearful......" Bai Xie continued, "But I am very empty, I don't know what I killed so many people for...... I've been confused trying to find this answer. So I came to the Central Plains Martial Arts to find this answer - I wandered the rivers and lakes and did so much with my life. What is it for? Defeating so many people and making others afraid of me. What's the point of this qiē? I've lived in the world and done so many things. What is my purpose? I want someone to sue me ......."

After listening to Bai Xie's words, Tian Xu seemed to understand a trace of Bai Xie's inner pain - a person who lives in the world, even if he is a master of martial arts, does not know the meaning of survival, such a person himself has been in contact with before. Many martial arts people in the Western Regions, because they did not receive education such as Confucius and others like the people in the Central Plains, have lived in a world of the weak and the strong since they were young. But among these people, it is inevitable that some enterprising but confused people will sprout, and they are also in the cracks of the world. Seek your own meaning in the world.

And Bai Xie is such a person now, even though he is full of terrifying martial arts, but he doesn't know what the meaning of his life in the world is, Tian Xu can't help but feel that behind Bai Xie's terrifying figure, there is a regrettable sadness and helplessness......

Tian Xu thought for a while, and smiled at Bai Xie: "It turns out that you have always wanted to know these ......"

Looking at Tian Xu's confident eyes, Bai Xie spoke again: "Listening to your tone, you seem to know the meaning of your own life in the world. You're fighting for your life. Even risking a lot of danger, he had to sneak into the Yangzhou prefect...... You must know what it means to be alive, and I think you're the one who can tell me the answer, so. I want you to sue me ......"

"Hmph, I see, that's why you want to catch up with me regardless of qiē......" Tian Xu completely understood. Clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand and continued to laugh. "No problem, I can sue you. But before that...... I'll have to subdue you first—"

The strength on Tian Xu's sword suddenly increased by a few points, and then the hand holding the sword turned smartly, grinding layers of sparks on Bai Xie's blade arm. Bai Xie hadn't reacted yet, he didn't exert force on the armguard, and he didn't wake up from his thoughts just now, and without paying attention, Tian Xu easily pulled out his sword.

"If you want to know the meaning of your life in the world, just beat me first!" Tian Xu jumped up in mid-air, looked down at Bai Xie, the long sword in his hand moved, and the "Jade Shadow Sword" was killed again, and the shadowy sword shadow broke through the sky, and the combination of rigidity and softness went towards Bai Xie.

"That's right, he knows......" Bai Xie looked at the phantom sword that flew like rain, and while pulling out the knife at his waist, he secretly said in his heart, "Yes, he is right, he is the only person who can tell me the truth and untie the knot in my heart, I must ......"

The "Jade Shadow Sword" had already arrived in front of him, and the cold knife in Bai Xie's hand suddenly rose. A few swords flew by like meteors, only to hear the sound of jade shattering in mid-air, and Bai Xie's swordsmanship blocked Tian Xu's swordsmanship.

But Tian Xu would not give Bai Xie a chance to fight back, and before Bai Xie put away his knife, Tian Xu was already one step ahead and fell in front of Bai Xie.

After all, close quarters are not his strong point, Bai Xie can only defend as an attack, and the blade arms of both hands rise again, and become more and more public, like a hedgehog that surrounds his arms without leaking.

But this is only an arm, and Tian Xu has already seen through this move, the chassis immediately lowered, supported the ground with one hand, and then reversed it into a kick, straight towards Bai Xie's abdomen - that is also Bai Xie's weakness.

This trick really worked, although the blade arm guard played a certain defensive role, but it also hindered some of his own perspectives, plus his abdomen was his own weakness, Bai Xie didn't stand firm, and the whole person flew backwards ten feet away.

"You are firmer than me, so you are more decisive than me. You understand the meaning of human life in the world, so you are more decisive than me......" Bai Xie fell back as he said from time to time, "If I can't know this, the doubts in my heart will only become a barrier that hinders my progress, and I will never break free from the demons in my heart, whether I am your opponent today or not......"

Tian Xu didn't care so much, and before Bai Xie could stand up from the ground, he flew towards Bai Xie. Bai Xie also knew that Tian Xu was real, and if he didn't exert all his strength, it was very likely that his life would not be guaranteed.

"If you want to know the meaning of living in the world, you must first do your best to do the things in front of you-" Tian Xu used the "Cold Star Palm", a cold current gathered in his palm, went straight to Bai Xie's abdomen, and said loudly, "If you don't do it with all your strength, you won't even be able to live, let alone the meaning of living in the world-"

Bai Xie seemed to be shocked by something, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. When he came to his senses a little, he suddenly felt a cool attack under his abdomen. Bai Xie didn't dare to slack off, and when he heard Tian Xu's words of "do his best", Bai Xie suddenly had inspiration and inadvertently responded with his palm. Bai Xie's palm power should not be underestimated. -for-tat with Tian Xu's "Cold Star Palm", the internal force rushed. The ruins where the two of them stood were instantly swept away by a powerful internal force.

Then the two of them took a few steps back from each other. Tian Xu's face was still calm and calm, but Bai Xie was a little out of breath - obviously, Tian Xu's martial arts were still higher than Bai Xie's.

"You won......" Bai Xie slowed down, and then said softly.

Tian Xu was a little surprised when he heard this, but thinking of the entanglement in Bai Xie's heart before, Tian Xu also seemed to be able to understand a little, and quickly calmed down again.

But when Bai Xie said this, Zhou Xingtong on the other side was not happy. Although he is also the "ghost king" of the Western Regions. But Zhou Xingtong is not as indecisive as Bai Xie today, and he doesn't care about the meaning of "living in the moment". Seeing that his junior brother actually bowed his head in front of a strange person from the Central Plains, and was still an enemy of the Yangzhou prefect, Zhou Xingtong was dissatisfied: "Hey, junior brother, don't forget the purpose of our pursuit of him -- what is the meaning of living in the present? Although his martial arts are very strong, as long as the two of us join forces, it is still ...... to deal with him."

However, without waiting for Zhou Xingtong to finish speaking, Bai Xie made a gesture to stop. And said righteously: "No, he is not our enemy, and we are not Qiu Qian'an's dogs, why should we work for such a person? This person is different, he can tell me what the meaning of my life in this world is. So ......" said, Bai Xie's eyes were on Tian Xu's body again.

Tian Xu saw that Bai Xie had no intention of doing it again. So he put down the posture of making a move. Tian Xu eased his nerves and continued, "Hmph. Since you are not like those hard-working officers and soldiers, then it is okay for me to sue you...... In fact, the meaning of life is very simple, although there are differences between people, but living in the present is just to prove one's ......"

"Prove yourself......" Bai Xie still didn't understand, and continued to question, "Prove yourself what?"

"It's to prove your ability and get the recognition of others!" Tian Xu continued, "There are so many heroes such as the 'Four Saints of Martial Arts' in the Central Plains Martial Arts, how did they succeed, it's not because of their unremitting efforts, getting the recognition of others, proving their strength in front of others, and thus finding the meaning of living in the world, right?"

"Prove yourself to others......" Bai Xie said to himself as if he knew something.

When Tian Xu said this, he suddenly stopped a little. He seemed to have thought of something, and there was a hint of sadness and resentment in his eyes.

"Fang Zhongtian ......" Tian Xu said silently in his heart, "Although I am a sworn brother with you, you are also my opponent." I've always been aiming for you, trying to surpass you and make everyone else agree with me, but ......"

Tian Xu's mind sprung up with countless bewildering memories......

(in recall)......

"Hey, I heard that Fang Zhongtian has become the youngest head of Yixian Sect, right......" "He is really a genius and has a chivalrous heart, no wonder Master Meng will hand over the position of head to him......" "Fang Zhongtian's martial arts are so high, he has saved a lot of people from the hands of Mengyuan officers and soldiers, such a person is really a chivalrous hero......" "I heard that this time he is going to Yangzhou, there is a famine and epidemic in Yangzhou, if he goes over this time, he will definitely be able to save the people there......"

Tian Xu's inner monologue: "I worship him as a brother, and we also live a life of swords and fires, sharing blessings and hardships, and experiencing countless ups and downs...... But why, why is all the honor and fame all his? What is the difference between me and him? Why is he the only one in the world who remembers?"

"Fang Zhongtian, he is really a young hero, he will definitely do something in the future......" "Meng Sect will give up the position of head of Yixian Sect to Fang Zhongtian, he will definitely be able to get ahead in the future......"

"All of them belong to him Fang Zhongtian, and I will always be just a supporting role...... Tian Xu continued to say resentfully, "So I hate, I also keep working hard, I am fighting every day, I am persevering every day, just so that one day I can surpass you, so that in the eyes of others, you are no longer the only one Fang Zhongtian...... So in order to achieve this goal, I have been working hard to move towards the goal and make everyone in the world agree with me......"

"The person I like is Fang Zhongtian, Tian Xu ......" Lan Gu's words also came to Tian Xu's mind, "I know you are good to me, but I don't have any affection for you - don't blame me for speaking straightforwardly, I am this kind of straightforward character, if I want to comfort you, I can only say ...... Let's be friends, as Zhongtian brothers, you ......"

"Fang Zhongtian has gained so much, even Lan Gu is no exception, the person Lan Gu loves is you, not me......" Tian Xu remembered that he had always been in love with Lan Gu, but the person he loved was his lifelong opponent Fang Zhongtian, and a trace of pain was in his heart......

(In reality)......

"So I want to prove myself, with my own efforts......" Tian Xu sobered up from his thoughts, and in the face of Bai Xie's question, Tian Xu actually said the pain in his heart and said, "I want to prove myself in front of the world, I am better than him, and I will not live under his shadow forever." I want to prove myself through my own efforts and be recognized by the people of the world, so I have never bowed my head and admitted defeat in front of anything - this is the purpose of my life in the world, and the meaning of survival!"

seems to be Tian Xu's inner monologue, but in Bai Xie's eyes, it looks like his own life guidance. Bai Xie, who was once confused about his life in the world, suddenly seemed to understand and understood the meaning of his life in the world.

"Prove yourself in front of the world and be recognized by the world, right......" Bai Xie's cold eyes showed a cold smile and said, "I finally understand, what I live for, thank you for telling me these ......" For Bai Xie, Tian Xu is no longer his enemy, but his friend, and even Bai Xie regards Tian Xu as his life mentor.

"This ...... What the hell is going on?" Zhou Xingtong didn't understand what was going on, but he knew that Tian Xu's martial arts were already above himself and Bai Xie, and more importantly, Bai Xie listened to Tian Xu's words, and seemed to have untied his heart knot, but Bai Xie's doubts for more than 20 years. In Zhou Xingtong's eyes, this Tian Xu is not a simple character......

"Quick, that thief seems to be over there...... At this moment, on the side of the alley, the voice of the prefect's officers and soldiers suddenly sounded, and because of the fight between Tian Xu and Bai Xie, there was a lot of commotion.

Tian Xu came back to his senses at this time, and said secretly in his heart: "Oops, I have been delayed here for too long, and the prefect's pursuers are coming......"

Tian Xu glanced back at Bai Xie and Zhou Xingtong one after the other, and said secretly in his heart: "It's better to withdraw first, if these two guys insist on stopping me, I can only fight with my life...... But now I have to rush back and tell Fang Zhongtian and Lan Gu the news of Qiu Qian'an's 'rebellion', although I am unwilling, but I can only ...... right now."

After thinking about it, Tian Xu didn't say a word, and fled directly from the scene with light skills. In the face of Tian Xu's "escape", Bai Xie and Zhou Xingtong had no intention of chasing......

Zhou Xingtong slowly walked to Bai Xie's side, looking at Bai Xie's unprecedentedly firm eyes, Zhou Xingtong asked, "It seems that you have found the answer you have been looking for for more than 20 years...... Why, you seem to be interested in that kid?"

Bai Xie rewrapped the bandage on his arm, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then sneered: "I finally found the answer I am looking for, the purpose and meaning of my life in this world...... He is not our enemy, but our friend...... No, for me, it's supposed to be my life coach......"

"Senior brother, you have really changed......" Zhou Xingtong looked at Bai Xie's determined gesture that he had never had, and said secretly in his heart......

On the other hand, Tian Xu has not stopped since he broke out of the prefect's guards and the obstruction of Bai Xie and Zhou Xingtong. He knew very well in his heart that he had inadvertently learned of Qiu Qian'an's "conspiracy" today, and Yangzhou City would definitely not be calm in the future. Before something could happen, all Tian Xu had to do was to tell the unknown Fang Zhongtian and Lan Gu the news.

However, just as Tian Xu was about to return to the place where the three of them had gathered, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him...... (To be continued......)
