These self-cultivators picked up their magic tools and began to attack Duan Chenfeng and Xu Wanqing. Duan Chenfeng let go of Xu Wanqing in his arms and prepared to fight with all his might.
"Wait a minute." However, Xu Wanqing did not take out the Mo Key Sword. She raised her head and looked at Yu Tianxiang. Then, she said,"Tianxiang, can you let Chenfeng go?”
Before Yu Tianxiang could speak, Duan Chenfeng quickly pulled Xu Wanqing into his arms and said with some dissatisfaction,"Qinger, don't ask him. Believe me, we can definitely escape.”
" Escape?" Duan Chenfeng's words sounded like a huge joke. Not only did the people in front of him not believe it, even he himself did not have the confidence. With just the two of them, how could they escape from the layers of encirclement?
"Chen Feng." Xu Wanqing was in Duan Chenfeng's arms as she said faintly,""I trust you."
"Yes!" Duan Chenfeng nodded and raised the Soul-Attracting Magic Flute high up in the air. He pointed forward and said resolutely,""Come on! No matter how many of you there are, I will not yield.”His voice was so firm and resolute, as if he did not care about any difficulties in the world.
Duan Chenfeng stood there like a god. The self-cultivators who surrounded them wanted to attack but retreated in fear. In the end, under Li Yu's command, the self-cultivators attacked Duan Chenfeng one after another. Although Duan Chenfeng's True Core Strength was strong, it could not withstand the attacks of so many people. Slowly, his True Core Strength decreased, but he still did not let go of Xu Wanqing in his arms. He protected her with all his might.
Suddenly, the Soul-sucking Magic Flute in Duan Chenfeng's hand was sent flying by the other party. It flew into the sky above, and then a sword stabbed towards him. He tilted his body and dodged the sword, but he couldn't dodge the palm that followed. The other party's palm attacked Xu Wanqing who was in his arms. How could Duan Chenfeng let the other party hurt Wanqing?
He turned around and used his back to receive the palm. His body was also sent flying by the powerful force of the palm. He spun in the air and barely stopped. When he landed, one of his legs was already bent on the ground.
Xu Wanqing stood up from Duan Chenfeng's arms and helped him up. She asked worriedly,""How are you?" There were tears in her eyes.
Duan Chenfeng looked at Xu Wanqing. His mouth was filled with sweetness, and blood flowed out. He was about to speak when another palm strike came from behind. Under such circumstances, Duan Chenfeng could not dodge at all. He was hit again. Under the huge inertia, his body took a few steps forward. He turned his head, wanting to see the person who attacked him, but he saw a sword appear in front of him. The self-cultivator opposite him did not have any expression. The sword pointed at him sparkled under the reflection of the sunlight.
He stretched out his hand and the Soul-sucking Magic Flute returned to Duan Chenfeng's hand under his master's command. However, the sword had also come to Duan Chenfeng's throat. The self-cultivators around him had surrounded them one after another. The two of them had no way out.
Yu Tianxiang came to Duan Chenfeng's side and said,""Surrender! I can ask my father to reduce your crime.”
Duan Chenfeng sneered," Mitigate it? No matter how much you lessen it, you'll still die."”
"I can let you die a few days later." Yu Tianxiang thought for a moment and replied.
"Haha!" Duan Chenfeng shook his head in despair and said to Xu Wanqing,""Qinger, promise me that you will take good care of yourself.”
When Xu Wanqing heard this, she shook her head violently and choked,"No, no, I just want to be with you.”Her words were somewhat incoherent, and tears flowed down her face. Although the palm that Duan Chenfeng had blocked for her did not land on her body, it seemed to have landed on her heart.
"I'm sorry." As soon as Duan Chenfeng finished speaking, he frowned slightly and was about to do something terrifying.
"Quick, stop him. He wants to burn the fire of life.”Li Yu, who was beside Yu Tianxiang, immediately saw through Duan Chenfeng's thoughts and said anxiously. However, the self-cultivators surrounding him were standing at a distance, so how could they stop him?
Xu Wanqing stood beside Duan Chenfeng. After hearing Li Yu's words, she suddenly sealed all of Duan Chenfeng's meridians, preventing Duan Chenfeng from burning the fire of his life. Duan Chenfeng saw that Xu Wanqing had sealed his meridians and asked in confusion,""Qinger, what are you doing?"
Xu Wanqing's voice was still choked up as she said,"No, I can't watch you die in front of me. I can't do it.”After he finished speaking, Mo Yue suddenly appeared in his hand. He raised his hand and swung it at his throat.
"No!"
"Ding Dong."
Two voices appeared at the same time. The first one was shouted by Duan Chenfeng, whose meridians were sealed, and the last one was stopped by Yu Tianxiang, who was not far away.
The Mo Key Sword was sent flying by a green sword. The green sword spun twice in the air and returned to Yu Tianxiang's hand. Yu Tianxiang looked at Xu Wanqing and sighed."Qinger, why are you doing this?”
"Qing 'er, don't do anything stupid." Duan Chenfeng said hurriedly.
Xu Wanqing ignored Yu Tianxiang and turned to Duan Chenfeng.""I won't, but you have to promise me one thing.”
"I promise you anything." Although Duan Chenfeng did not know what Sherri would say, as long as he said it, he would definitely agree.
"No matter what happens, you have to live well.”Xu Wanqing said slowly with tears in her eyes. Her white teeth bit her lower lip, and blood seeped out.
After Duan Chenfeng heard this, he hesitated for a moment before saying,""Alright, I promise you." He was laughing at himself in his heart.'Promise? Is this considered a promise?' Even if she promised Sherri, would these people let her off? Would the Prime Minister let him off? This was just a consolation. As Duan Chenfeng thought of this, the self-cultivator behind him struck the back of his head with his palm. He felt pain and fainted.
Yu Tianxiang saw that Duan Chenfeng had been arrested and said seriously,"Send him to the dungeon in the mansion and watch him closely.”
"Yes, sir!" The two imperial guards walked up and carried Duan Chenfeng out of the crowd.
After Duan Chenfeng was taken away, Yu Tianxiang said to the self-cultivators who participated in the operation,""Seniors, please go to the mansion to rest first. As for your remuneration, it will be distributed tomorrow morning.
Yu Lai bowed to Tianxiang and said,"Thank you, Your Highness. "Then he led the group of Xiuzhenists out of the valley.
Almost everyone had left. Zhang He reminded them,"Your Highness, what about Xu Wanqing? Should we arrest her as well?”
"Impudent." Yu Tianxiang said unhappily,"You take your people and leave first. I'll handle this."”
"But…"
"No buts, this is an order.”Yu Tianxiang said seriously.
Zhang He looked at Xu Wanqing angrily and left quickly with his men. After everyone left, Yu Tianxiang picked up the Mo Key Sword that had fallen to the side and handed it to Xu Wanqing."Perhaps you hate me, but this is what I have to do.”
Xu Wanqing wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said slowly,"I don't blame you." Her voice had returned to its usual coldness, making people feel a chill. Xu Wanqing took the Moyue Sword. A white light flashed in her hand and the sword disappeared into thin air.
Yu Tianxiang was already used to Xu Wanqing's voice. When he saw her put away Mo Yue, he said softly,"Go back! The weather is getting cold." After saying that, Xu Wanqing still stood there as if reminiscing about something. He continued,"Let's go! I think you should go back and think about how to save your Chenfeng!”
"Then do you have a way to save him?" Xu Wanqing suddenly woke up from her reminiscence and asked anxiously.
Yu Tianxiang saw that Xu Wanqing only spoke when he mentioned Duan Chenfeng. He smiled and said,""There is a way."
"What can we do?" Xu Wanqing said.”Her voice was slightly agitated, as if she could not control her emotions.
"Then listen to me. We'll talk when we get back.”Yu Tianxiang looked straight at Xu Wanqing and said solemnly.
Xu Wanqing avoided Yu Tianxiang's gaze and nodded gently. She said,"Alright then!" After saying that, he didn't wait for Yu Tianxiang to reply and walked towards the entrance of the valley first. His footsteps were a little hurried.
A few stones on the ground where she had been standing were already wet.
For the past three days, Duan Chenfeng had been unconscious. However, the only thing he knew was that Xu Wanqing had appeared by her side twice, and both times were very long. Although he could not open his eyes to see, the faint fragrance in the air was the unique smell of Xu Wanqing's body. He would never forget it for the rest of his life.
He had been trying his best to recover the Refined Qi in his body. However, when the Refined Qi started to circulate, the chains that bound his hands and feet released a strange force that prevented him from cultivating. Duan Chenfeng understood that this was a magical artifact or torture tool that was specially used to deal with self-cultivators.
Although these torture tools were effective for self-cultivators who had Refined Qi, they were useless against Duan Chenfeng who had demonic power in his body. He separated the demonic power from the Refined Qi again and circulated it very slowly, recovering the demonic power bit by bit. When it accumulated to a certain extent, it would be converted into internal strength.
Duan Chenfeng didn't dare to recover too quickly because he was afraid that the guards would notice the energy fluctuations in the air. If that happened, he wouldn't even have a chance to escape. Right now, he could only pray in his heart that his execution would be delayed.
On the afternoon of the third day, Xu Wanqing came to Duan Chenfeng's side again. When Duan Chenfeng felt that Xu Wanqing had arrived, he opened his eyes slightly. Through a thick iron fence, he saw Xu Wanqing walking towards him. Beside her were two cultivation experts above the level of Force Condensation.
Duan Chenfeng's gaze passed through the bars of the cell and landed on Xu Wanqing's face. What kind of face was that? Her stunning back was so pale, so pale that it was as if there was no blood. One could imagine that she had not been doing well these past few days.
Xu Wanqing stopped in front of Duan Chenfeng's cell and looked at him. When she saw Duan Chenfeng looking at her, she was first surprised and then happy. Then, she said softly,"Are you alright?"
Duan Chenfeng lightly nodded and said,""I'm fine. You have to take good care of yourself.”His eyes were filled with tenderness. He wanted to run to Xu Wanqing's side and hug her, but the chains on his hands and feet stopped him.
"Don't worry, I will." Xu Wanqing smiled.”
" No, this isn't true," Duan Chenfeng said to himself again and again after hearing Xu Wanqing's words. However, this was the reality. If not for the fact that his True Core Strength had not recovered to the point where he could break free from the chains, and if Xu Wanqing had not said that she would come to see him at night, Duan Chenfeng would have already burned the flames of his life to see Xu Wanqing.
Reason told him that he could not. There were still many things waiting for him to do, but he could not let go of Sherri. He was thinking about what would happen if Sherri left him. Would the world become dull in the blink of an eye?
Waiting was a very long process, especially when waiting for a cruel reality. That feeling was even more uncomfortable. Night had finally arrived. Xu Wanqing once again arrived at the door of Duan Chenfeng's cell, followed by two self-cultivators. She smiled at Duan Chenfeng and said,""Chenfeng, I'm here."
When Duan Chenfeng saw Xu Wanqing, the guesses in his heart disappeared without a trace. He said gently,""Qinger."
Xu Wanqing turned around and said to the two guards,""I want to talk to Duan Chenfeng alone. Can you guys leave for a while?”
"I'm sorry, Miss Xu, but we can't agree to your request." One of the guards replied.”
"How about this?" Xu Wanqing took out a golden token and said,"I order you to wait outside.”
The two guards were shocked when they saw the token, but they didn't say anything. If anything happened to Duan Chenfeng, they would also die. However, those who didn't listen to the person with the token would also be punished severely. They stood there hesitating.
Xu Wanqing seemed to have read their minds and said,"Don't worry, I just want to talk to him about the past so that he can have a good memory before he is executed.
"Alright then!" If there's anything, just shout. We'll wait for you at the door.”With that, he bowed to Xu Wanqing and turned to leave. That bow was said to be for Xu Wanqing, but it was more like it was for the token.
After Xu Wanqing saw them leave, she smiled and said,"Chenfeng, what do you think of the token in my hand?”
It was the same way of addressing her, but it was different now. Duan Chenfeng felt like they were just two ordinary friends talking, but there was something missing between them. Could it be that she had really changed? Thinking of this, Duan Chenfeng said nervously,"Qinger, if you have something to say, say it!”
Xu Wanqing deliberately waved the token in front of Duan Chenfeng and said,""This token was given to me by the Crown Prince. Apart from the Emperor, I can command all the officials in the world.”
"Impressive!" Duan Chenfeng said indifferently.
Xu Wanqing did not care about the change in Duan Chenfeng's tone and continued,""I'm here today to let you go." After she finished speaking, the Mo Key Sword appeared in her hand. With a wave of her hand, she cut off the chains on the cell. Then, she pushed open the cell door and quickly came to Duan Chenfeng. She cut off the chains on Duan Chenfeng's hands and feet four times in a row.
After Duan Chenfeng regained his freedom, he suddenly pulled Xu Wanqing into his arms and said excitedly,""Qinger, let's escape together! I know what you said just now was meant for those people outside.”
The loud sound of Xu Wanqing breaking the cell door had already alarmed the guards outside the door. The sound of hurried footsteps gradually approached. Under Duan Chenfeng's surprised gaze, Xu Wanqing broke free from his embrace and said,"" I didn't lie to you. I'm telling the truth. Only now do I understand that my love for you is just a kind of love from a younger sister to an older brother, so…"
As she said this, a trace of loneliness flashed across her eyes, but then she returned to normal and continued,"So you have to find a girl who loves you. Don't waste time on me. Remember, don't come back to look for me after you leave.”
"Why?" Duan Chenfeng asked hysterically.
At this moment, the two guards were almost in front of Duan Chenfeng's cell. Xu Wanqing grabbed Duan Chenfeng's hand and placed the Mo Key Sword in his hand. Then, she turned her body backward and held Duan Chenfeng's hand. She placed the sword on her neck and said softly,"You haven't recovered your True Core Strength yet.”
No matter what, I have to take you away. Duan Chenfeng said to himself in his heart. He hugged Xu Wanqing and said to the guards who came,""Don't come over, or I'll kill her.”
One of the guards said in horror,""Don't, don't do anything rash."
Duan Chenfeng ignored them. He held Xu Wanqing hostage and walked towards the door of the cell. When he arrived at the door of the cell, there was no one there. He felt a little strange. At this moment, Xu Wanqing suddenly broke free from her embrace and flashed a few feet away.
Duan Chenfeng was stunned at first, then he asked,""What's wrong, Qinger?" As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen people from the Royal Guards suddenly appeared around him. However, Zhang He was not among them. The person leading them was Yu Tianxiang. When Xu Wanqing saw Yu Tianxiang, she ran to his side and said in a delicate voice,"Tianxiang, how did it go?"
Yu Tianxiang smiled and said gently,"Not bad." Then, he said loudly to Duan Chenfeng,""You want to escape? Let's see how you're going to escape today.”
At this moment, Duan Chenfeng's rationality had already been overwhelmed by his emotions. How could he think so much? He instantly converted the demonic energy he had gathered over the past few days into inner energy. Like a madman, he swung the Mo Key Sword that still had Xu Wanqing's faint fragrance and slashed at the Royal Guards beside him. The Void Sword Qi was also mixed in. Under such a sudden situation, three people were injured by Duan Chenfeng in an instant. They did not expect Duan Chenfeng to still have True Core Strength in his body. Even Xu Wanqing, who had saved him, He was also surprised, and there was a hint of regret in his surprise.
After a few sword strikes, Duan Chenfeng no longer had any True Core Strength, and his body was slowly unable to withstand the opponent's attacks. Xu Wanqing said loudly,"Duan Chenfeng, I don't want to love you anymore. Just give up!"”
Duan Chenfeng, who was already powerless to resist, suddenly felt his body filled with strength after hearing Xu Wanqing's words. He leaped forward and pointed the sword in his hand into the air. He spun around and shouted,"Remnant Yang is like a dream.”Setting Sun Descent, Setting Sun Wound, Setting Sun Powder, the three moves of Setting Sun Sword Art were instantly unleashed.
This was another set of combination sword technique after the combination sword technique of the Setting Sun Covering the Sky. Originally, Duan Chenfeng was unable to execute this set of sword techniques. He did not even know under what circumstances this set of sword techniques would be triggered. But today, under such a special emotion, he understood that this move was to touch with emotion. All the love in the world would disappear in the blink of an eye like a dream.
With just one move, Duan Chenfeng had forced everyone back. His body was covered in blood, and nearly half of his opponents had died under that move. Duan Chenfeng raised his head and looked deeply at Xu Wanqing. It was as if he wanted to carve her into his heart. Tears flowed out of his eyes and mixed with the blood on his face, forming bloody tears. Drop by drop, they slid down his cheeks and into the corner of his mouth.
The Purple Cloud Pendant suddenly appeared in Duan Chenfeng's hand. He casually threw it in front of him and it flew onto the Purple Cloud Pendant that was expanding. As soon as the Purple Cloud Pendant touched Duan Chenfeng's body, it quickly flew into the air, bringing a soulless person with it as they fled into the distant night.
A self-cultivator from the Royal Guards looked in the direction Duan Chenfeng left and asked Yu Tianxiang,""Your Highness, what should we do now? Should we chase after them?”
"What should we do?" Yu Tianxiang looked at the royal guard covered in blood and said coldly,"You want Duan Chenfeng to escape?
"This…"
"All of you, come here." Yu Tianxiang called everyone to his side. When they arrived in front of Yu Tianxiang, a green sword suddenly appeared in Yu Tianxiang's hand. The corner of his mouth smiled slightly."Go to hell!" As he spoke, he swung his sword at everyone.
The two people standing in the middle were killed by that sudden sword attack. The other six quickly dodged to the side and asked in confusion,"Crown Prince, what are you doing?" As soon as they finished speaking, they suddenly felt an intense pain in their meridians. The sword in their hands fell to the ground. One of them seemed to understand something and said,"You poisoned me."
Yu Tianxiang ignored them and swung his sword one after another, slashing at their bodies. Before they died, their eyes were wide open. It was obvious that they died with grievances. When the last royal guard fell, Yu Tianxiang shouted,""Someone come quickly! Someone escaped." After saying that, he pulled Xu Wanqing, who was beside him, and disappeared in a flash.
On the other side, Duan Chenfeng flew out of the jurisdiction of Tianfeng City on his Purple Cloud Pendant. He was about to pass through the border of Tianmeng City and rush to the Cold Death Sect. Suddenly, he felt a pain all over his body and fell down from the Purple Cloud Pendant. Duan Chenfeng knew that if he really fell to the ground, he would be severely injured even if he didn't die. Seeing that his body was about to fall to the ground, he could not do anything. Just as he was in despair, his body was suddenly caught by someone and he fainted.
After an unknown period of time, Duan Chenfeng woke up from his coma. He opened his eyes and saw that he was lying on the bed with a person sitting beside him. To his surprise, that person was actually Feng Sha. After seeing Duan Chenfeng wake up, Feng Sha said,"Don't move. Lie down first."
"Senior, why am I here?" Duan Chenfeng said.
Windkill's eyes suddenly dimmed as he slowly said,""We received news that you were captured by the Emperor's men, so we brought people to save you. However, the security in Tianfeng Manor was tight, so we couldn't do anything. I wanted to wait for them to kill you and break out of the prison, but I didn't expect you to escape.”
Hearing that Feng Sha had saved him, Duan Chenfeng said gratefully,""Senior, thank you." At this point, he thought of someone and asked,"How are Mu Sha and the others?"
Windkill shook his head and said sadly,""They're all dead."
When Duan Chenfeng heard this, he was first surprised and then guilty. He said softly,""I'm sorry. I'm the one who harmed them.”
"It's not your fault." Feng Sha shook his head and said,"I just didn't expect them to send so many people to take your life. They even used our cultivation sects thousands of miles away."”At this point, he paused and said,"Don't even think about it. Sooner or later, the chaos in the cultivation sects will begin. You've only ignited their desires.”
"But this is all because of me.”Duan Chenfeng said.
Feng Sha smiled faintly." You are still young and don't know many things. You will understand in the future. Now, you should rest and recuperate. Don't go anywhere. After you recover, we will return to Cold Death Sect."”
"Yes!" Duan Chen nodded and didn't say anything. He closed his eyes and prepared to recover the True Core Strength he had consumed. After seeing Duan Chenfeng begin to recover his True Core Strength, Windkill stood up and left the room.
Duan Chenfeng circulated his True Core Strength in his body once, but he could not continue. His mind was filled with Xu Wanqing. The days they spent together resurfaced in his mind again and again, making his heart unable to calm down. He really could not believe what Wanqing said when she saved him. Every word was like a knife stabbing deeply into his heart.
Sherri loved him and would never do anything to let him down. Could it be that she was also threatened? Thinking of this, Duan Chenfeng seemed to have understood something. He calmed down and slowly recovered the True Core Strength in his body.
Just like that, another ten days passed. During these days, other than Feng Sha coming to visit him once a day, Duan Chenfeng spent the rest of the time trying to recover his True Core Strength.
He was pleasantly surprised to find that ever since that crazy killing, the True Core Strength in his body had increased a little. Now, his True Core Strength had already reached the third stage of the sixth layer, and there was a faint possibility of breaking through to the seventh layer. Feeling the dark blue vital essence ball circulating rapidly in his body, he knew that he had completely recovered.
He got off the bed and took a simple shower. He changed into a white robe and went to the window. This was a small town, and the place where he stayed was also a local hotel. Perhaps because it was located in a relatively remote area, the government had not sent anyone to search for his whereabouts.
Duan Chenfeng didn't understand why Feng Sha didn't bring him directly to the Cold Death Sect that day. Instead, he chose to heal in this small town. Could it be that he was really injured that day? As Duan Chenfeng thought of this, the door suddenly opened. He turned around and saw Feng Sha walking in. Feng Sha saw that Duan Chenfeng had completely recovered and smiled,"I didn't expect that not only have you fully recovered, but your True Core Strength has also increased by quite a bit.”
" I didn't expect it to increase by so much," Duan Chenfeng replied.”
Windkill looked at Duan Chenfeng and said thoughtfully,""That's because you survived on the edge of death.”
Hearing this, Duan Chenfeng asked doubtfully,""What do you mean?"
Windkill came to Duan Chenfeng's side and said,""When I saved you that day, not only were your meridians in chaos, you couldn't even find a trace of True Core Strength. I think that if it wasn't for the Divine Tool protecting you, we wouldn't have been able to save you from the edge of death.”
Feng Sha's words confirmed Duan Chenfeng's thoughts. If Feng Sha and the others had not appeared in time, perhaps he would have already become a cold dead body. At that time, who would be sad for him? Would Sherri be sad for him?
Seeing Duan Chenfeng's dim eyes, Wind Kill said,""I won't disturb you anymore. Since you've recovered your True Core Strength, we'll get up and return to Cold Death Gate at midnight.”With that, he turned around and left the room.
Duan Chenfeng stretched out his right hand and the Mo Yue Sword appeared in his hand. He had taken it with him when he left. He looked at Mo Yue and said softly,"Sherri, what are you thinking?”However, Duan Chenfeng had a sword in his hand. He could not answer Xu Wanqing's question.
After a long time, the sky gradually darkened. The sunlight withdrew its rays of light from this world. When the sky had completely darkened, Duan Chenfeng withdrew Mo Yue and muttered to himself,"We still have to meet and ask clearly!”He changed into a black night-traveling suit, went to the window, opened it, and flew out in a flash.
In the Ice Blue Courtyard, Xu Wanqing looked in the direction of the back mountain. She didn't know what was going on, but she had sealed all the inner core force in her body, allowing her body to feel the cold wind in winter.
Yu Tianxiang quietly walked over and put a coat on her body. He said softly,"Qinger, the weather is cold. Take care of your body.”
Xu Wanqing didn't take off her clothes and said coldly,""I want to be alone, can I?”
"Sure." Yu Tianxiang replied,"I came to tell you that we will return to the palace in World City tomorrow. Don't forget."”
"Don't worry, I'll do what I promised you.”Xu Wanqing's voice was still as cold as ever.
"Go back early. I'll be leaving first." After Yu Tianxiang finished speaking, he sighed and left the Ice Blue Courtyard.
Xu Wanqing looked up at the moonlight and said faintly,""Chenfeng, are you alright? We may not be able to be together in this life, but you will always be the person I love the most.”She prayed in her heart, praying that the person she loved could be happy.
A moment later, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the moonlight and then disappeared. The figure was somewhat familiar, causing Xu Wanqing's heart to tremble. A gust of cold wind blew past, and she sneezed lightly. She raised her hand to stroke her messy bangs and turned around, wanting to leave Ice Blue Courtyard. Just as she turned around, a figure appeared in front of her.
"Chen Feng." Xu Wanqing blurted out. She was extremely excited. Just as she was about to pounce on them, figures surrounded them one after another. Zhang He walked out with a smile and said,"Brat, I have to admire you. After running away, you still have the courage to come back.”
Xu Wanqing's agitated emotions suddenly dimmed. She said coldly,""What are you doing here? I don't want to see you.”
The cold voice made Duan Chenfeng's heart ache. At this moment, no one could feel the heartbreaking pain. He suppressed his emotions and ignored the people beside him. He took out Mo Key and said affectionately,"I'm here to return your sword." As she spoke, she tossed the sword to Xu Wanqing.
Xu Wanqing took the sword and said,"Thank you!" In the future, you are you, and I am me. There is no need to meet.”As he spoke, he walked to Duan Chenfeng's side and leisurely walked past him.
She left without even looking at him.
Duan Chenfeng turned around and wanted to chase after him, but Zhang He blocked his way and said with a smile,""Brat, I let you escape that day. Today, I'm going to catch you and bring you back.”
"Get lost." Duan Chenfeng said in an angry and cold voice. The people who heard it felt a chill down their spines. Zhang He also took a few steps back. Duan Chenfeng took out the Soul-sucking Magic Flute and said loudly,""Qinger, wait."
Xu Wanqing turned around and said with some dissatisfaction,"Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Duan Chenfeng smiled coldly as if he was mocking himself.""Go? Where can we go?" At this point, he paused slightly and continued,"I don't know what's wrong with you now, but I've never regretted loving you. Everything about you and me is the best memory of my life. Maybe I'm daydreaming. Maybe I shouldn't have asked you to be with me forever. But I really want you to be happy.”
Duan Chenfeng put the Soul-sucking Magic Flute to his mouth and said,""Let me play a song for you! After listening, you will have your choice, and I will also find my own place.”
The Soul-sucking Magic Flute, a divine weapon that was originally used to play a soul-controlling tune, had now become a sentimental note in Duan Chenfeng's mouth. The sorrowful tune was like a tearful narration, describing the pain in his heart and the helplessness of separation.
After Zhang He and the others heard Duan Chenfeng's tune, they stood there as if they were thinking about something.
The sound of the flute became more and more desolate, carrying a hint of sadness. The sad tune spread out of the courtyard and into the night sky beyond the Nine Nether. Duan Chenfeng had forgotten everything until the end. He even forgot where he was. Time and space stopped in an instant, as if there were only the two of them in the world. One person, one flute, one song.
The moonlight, the cold wind, Duan Chenfeng's black clothes that were blown by the wind, his long hair that fluttered in the wind, the Soul-sucking Magic Flute placed between his lips, and his body stood in the courtyard. All of this outlined a bleak picture.
Duan Chenfeng looked straight at Xu Wanqing. The face and eyes that he had once known were no longer the same. His face was cold and his eyes were like lightning. Everything seemed so unfamiliar. Xu Wanqing suddenly turned around and ran out of the courtyard. A teardrop fell quietly when she turned around, but no one noticed it.
After Duan Chenfeng saw Xu Wanqing leave, he sighed and jumped up. He used the Illusory Steps and disappeared into the night. After a long time, Zhang He woke up from the beautiful melody and realized that Duan Chenfeng and Xu Wanqing were no longer around. He asked his subordinate in surprise,""Where are they?"
The subordinates beside him were even more surprised than him. One of them said in a low voice,"Captain, they left a long time ago."
"Oh, then let's go!" Zhang He sounded a little disappointed. He had never thought that someone as brave as him would have such a sad side to him. His subordinates found it hard to believe.
Duan Chenfeng left Tianfeng Mansion and met Feng Sha and the others. Feng Sha asked in a reproachful tone,"Did you go look for Xu Wanqing again?”
Duan Chenfeng nodded without saying anything. Feng Sha could guess something from Duan Chenfeng's sad expression. "It's good that you're fine. Don't do such stupid things again in the future."”
Duan Chenfeng looked at the night sky and said indifferently,""I won't do it again." "Let's go back to Cold Death Sect!"”
"Alright," said Windkill. As he spoke, he rode his magic tool and said to his subordinate beside him,"Back to Cold Death Sect."
Three, five, and seven-colored lights flashed in the night sky and disappeared into the darkness in an instant. Xu Wanqing only lowered her head when she could no longer be seen. Her eyes were filled with tears as she muttered,"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I can't not ask about my parents 'life and death for you.”His heart ached, and his right hand that was holding Mo Yue trembled slightly.
With a clang, the sword slipped and the heart broke.
