That scene was like a replay of the past. It slowly played in his memories. The laughter and sweetness of the past were reduced to the past at this moment. Dong Xiaorou's heart was already broken, and she could no longer piece together a complete picture. At this moment, she understood that her husband had passed away, and her world was also dull.
Zhang Shengquan brought his brothers from the Death Gate Array to the woman. As they were all seriously injured, their speed was very slow. Some of them had poor internal strength and could not even stand up. They dragged their feet with the help of their senior brothers. Dong Xiaorou didn't seem to notice them, and her eyes became blurry. Or rather, it was as if they did not exist. He stood there blankly for a long time.
Zhang Shengquan came in front of Dong Xiaorou and said guiltily,""I'm sorry, Eldest Shixiong has already left.”
Dong Xiaorou smiled coldly and didn't say anything. She raised her head and looked at him, but her eyes had already lost their luster.
Zhang Shengquan thought for a moment and said to Dong Xiaorou,"You can go! I won't hunt you down anymore."
"Sect Master." Everyone reminded him softly.
"Get lost, all of you get lost." Zhang Shengquan only knew why his senior brother wanted him to kill Duan Qingkong the moment Duan Qingkong used Falling Leaves and Setting Sun. Although it was only a forced use, he believed that his senior brother would soon reach a realm that even his master could not reach. He wanted to kill Duan Qingkong to protect his position and also to take away his sword after killing Duan Qingkong. Since the mission had been completed, there was no need to hurt him. Zhang Shengquan couldn't do anything to the person in front of him.
The group of subordinates slowly left. Although they said they were leaving, they were actually standing to the side. At this moment, Zhang Shengquan said," I'm leaving. You have to take good care of yourself in the future. If…" He still wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end. He looked at Dong Xiaorou affectionately and turned to leave.
Zhang Shengquan had only taken a few steps when Dong Xiaorou moved. She snatched the sword from a weak subordinate and quickly cut her own neck. A smile appeared on her face as if it represented their reunion.
"Why?" Zhang Shengquan suddenly turned around and saw Dong Xiaorou, who was on the verge of death. He quickly ran over and hugged her tightly before she collapsed. When his subordinates saw this sudden scene, they subconsciously stood to the side. Zhang Shengquan's tears fell drop by drop, from his face to the dry ground, and finally to the pool of blood that had not solidified. The knot in his heart was also untied at this moment. He muttered,"Xiao Rou, I'm calling you Xiao Rou! Or should I call you Little Junior Sister?"
At this point, Zhang Shengquan's words became a little choked,""You know what? When I first saw you on Canyang Mountain, your image inexplicably lingered in my heart. I wanted to tell you many times, but I didn't say it out loud. When I wanted to muster up the courage to express my love for you, I saw you and Eldest Brother snuggling together sweetly. At that time, I knew that I had no more hope, so I wished you all the best in my heart. It was also from that moment on that I began to cultivate with all my might, hoping that one day I could surpass Eldest Senior Brother in martial arts.”
As he spoke, his tears flowed even more violently. He continued," I didn't want this to happen either. Second Senior Brother actually used the Sect Leader's Order to oppress me…Seeing you like this, my heart really hurts…Rou 'er, you're really so silly…"
Time passed second by second. He heard the sound of metal cracking after his eldest senior brother burned his life force. He knew that Xiao Rou had also gone and left in the same way as his eldest senior brother.
Zhang Shengquan held Dong Xiaorou tightly in his arms, his mind blank. After an unknown period of time, he gently placed Dong Xiaorou on the ground and found a few words on the ground. He knew that Dong Xiaorou had heard his words before she died. Looking at the few bright red words condensed from blood, his mind suddenly went blank.
A moment later, Zhang Shengquan picked up the sword in his hand and stood on the empty space beside him. He used all his internal strength to condense a silver-white True Distance Sphere in his palm and threw it solemnly to the ground in front of him, creating a pit more than two meters deep. Then, he slowly put Dong Xiaorou and Duan Qingkong's bodies into it.
Finally, Zhang Shengquan took a deep look and quickly pushed the dust aside. The dust flew up and covered the two of them and their faces. The most powerful expert of the Canyang Sect in the Canyang Mountain had left without a word.
After Zhang Shengquan covered up the dust, he was about to leave when a sound came from the nearby forest, immediately attracting everyone's attention. One of his subordinates heard it from afar and said to Zhang Shengquan warily," Sect Master, there seems to be someone there. Could it be…" He also suspected that it was Duan Qingkong's descendant, but he was not sure.
"Since the matter has been settled, you guys go first. I'll go take a look.”Zhang Shengquan stopped crying and said slowly.
The group of people were very puzzled, but they did not dare to disobey Zhang Shengquan. They could only nod and say,"Yes, Sect Master." After saying that, he left. They left, leaving nothing behind. They only took the swords in the hands of the two people and slowly disappeared into the night.
Duan Qingkong's sword wasn't an ordinary sword. It was the Canyang Sect's sword, the Canyang Sword.
Zhang Shengquan came to the edge of the forest and looked at the pitch-black forest. He smiled faintly and felt a little uncomfortable. What he didn't say was that the reason why he agreed to hunt down Eldest Shixiong was because he really wanted to see Dong Xiaorou. However, this was the result. Actually, he already knew who the person in the forest was. Even if Xiao Rou did not say anything, he would have let him go.
After a long, long time, the air was so quiet that there was no more sound. A little boy's head popped out.
The little boy was the child of the husband and wife. His name was Duan Chenfeng. When he saw his parents leave him so easily, he was in so much pain that he couldn't control himself. He had lived in this village since he was young and had invested too much in it. Every flower and tree here was so familiar to him. However, now that he was really going to leave this place alone, tears couldn't help but fall gently down his cheeks.
Since young, Duan Chenfeng's father had taught Duan Chenfeng how to cultivate Zhen Yuan and the Sun-Splitting Sword Art. He believed that once he knew how to cultivate, it would be equivalent to protecting himself to a certain extent. He was also considered a genius that only appeared once in a hundred years. At such a young age, he had already cultivated the Sun-Splitting Sword Art to the fifth move. This speed could be said to be a miracle.
However, his cultivation of true essence was obviously insufficient. Up until now, the true essence in his body was only a yellow true essence ball. Duan Chenfeng's father had always liked his only son. He was used to spoiling him in life, but when it came to martial arts, he was as strict as a different person. This was also the reason why Duan Chenfeng's martial arts improved so quickly.
Although Duan Chenfeng had already mastered the fifth move, Setting Sun, he was still unable to unleash much power at his age with his pitiful True Qi. In this world full of self-cultivation, it was nothing. In other words, a master who had cultivated for more than ten years could defeat him in one move. At this moment, Duan Chenfeng's heart was in a mess. He didn't know where to go.
