Flame, the most splendid and dangerous beauty in the world.
It can burn away sins and illuminate the sky, but it can also destroy life and swallow hope.
The big boat that lit up with the burning flames reflected the surface of the river red. At this moment, almost everyone on the shore saw it—a woman was tied to the mast of the boat.
The woman who was tied to the top of the mast was wearing a yellow dress, and the long skirt fluttered like a withered yellow swallowtail butterfly as the ship swayed.The slightly cold river wind blew by, but she just lowered her head without any reaction, her long black hair was blown tousled, covering her face, not knowing whether she was dead or alive.
In the chilly morning light, the fire snapped strings and sent the ship crumbling.
"That... that's it!?" Ye Youqi felt as if his heart was being clenched tightly, and he couldn't breathe at all, "Is it mother!?"
"Stay here!" Shen Yun tore off his cloak and threw it on the ground, almost in the blink of an eye, he disappeared in front of Ye Youqi and disappeared completely.
On the other side of the Yangtze River, the Haoqi League's army had gathered at some point outside Wangbei Village, which was separated from them by the natural moat of the Yangtze River.The water-blue banners and black iron swords and guns showed a cool and icy appearance in this bloody morning before the light was brightened.
They neither yelled to fight, nor rushed to attack, as if everyone on both sides of the strait was watching the burning ship, waiting for the result——
Ye Youqi's mind moved, his eyes widened, and he suddenly shouted towards the river, "Be careful..."
Before he finished speaking, Shen Yun had already shown his figure above the big ship. The long-haired man in dark red clothes swept over the mast, and grabbed the woman with her head bowed——
Under the messy long hair, a lifeless and unfamiliar face was hidden.
Almost at the same time, the tongue of flame ignited the corner of the woman's skirt, followed by burning all over her body.Shen Yun reacted extremely quickly and immediately jumped up, but the huge roar instantly drowned him out.
The boat exploded.
The flames soared into the sky, blurring day and night.
At that moment, except for the loud explosion of the explosives, there seemed to be no other sounds in the world—until someone murmured to himself in disbelief, "What happened to the owner of the valley?" The balance is the same, and it seems a little panicked.
"Who said something happened to the owner of the valley?" Ye Youqi said slowly amidst the discussion, "Let me hear some people speak falsely, shake the morale of the army, and punish them with death, understand?"
"Master Shaogu, please forgive me!" The talkative soldiers knelt down to plead guilty, and Pei Qing, who was standing aside, looked at the sparkling river and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid Haoqi is about to cross the river."
Looking from a distance, it turns out that the soldiers and horses on the other side are mobilizing ships, as if they want to cross the river and take advantage of the victory to pursue them.
"Shen Yun was able to bring my father out of Maple Valley by himself back then. I don't believe he would have died in a mere trap." Ye Youqi's beautiful profile revealed a sense of sobriety in the bright firelight. "Take a step back, even if Shen Yun dies, will Qi Yun think that everything is fine for him?"
Before coming to Nanping Mountain, even before the ship exploded, Ye Youqi had never hated Qi Yun so strongly and thickly.
He used to hate, hated the master of Haoqi League for his animal-like face, for a secret book that ruined his family, separated him from his master, forced him to enter the Valley of the Wicked, and forced him to get used to killing and plotting, ugliness and betrayal...but in the end Those hates are not direct, and there is no direct pain.The hatred of his parents that he had no choice but to carry over the past twenty years, when he found the wishing wooden tablet hidden by Ye Jiuci in Xiaoyao Peak, he was exhausted to the extreme.
He thought, father has no hatred left, so what is he doing?He led the army of the Evilman Valley all the way from north to south to the foot of Nanping Mountain, and stood on opposite sides with his master, causing his junior to act forcefully and use the power of Gu King to make life and death unpredictable, and made the warm and harmonious people in Wanhua Valley scattered in the past. why?
He was not a bloodthirsty person in the first place, and he was forced step by step to the present, all relying on the support of his parents and relatives. After a long time, he was inevitably confused and restrained, but he couldn't figure out why he was fighting.
But this ship of dynamite woke him up.
Shen Yun's best friend, Ye Jiuci's junior sister, his mother—all these years, they may have fallen into Qi Yun's hands, tormented in the dark, and no one came to rescue them.
My favorite hairpin and the long hair on my body have become tools for demonstrations, what else?
Could it be that next time, she will be strapped with explosives and pushed out by Qi Yun just to kill Shen Yun, or him?
Ye Youqi dug his fingers into his palm, pressing out deep marks, his voice was as cold as if soaked in ice: "As long as I'm alive, I'll be with Qi Yun...until death."
He has grown taller, his martial arts have become stronger, and his horizons have broadened...in fact, none of them can be regarded as real growth.
Taking responsibility is a beginning, and trying to protect is a process. Only when a person learns to stand upright in such a shell-like suffering can he truly be regarded as a new life.
On the other side, Liao Yungui, who had witnessed the whole explosion process, frowned, and asked Bai Ying who was standing beside him, "...Zho Nv's dead body was dressed in yellow, with explosives hidden in her body tied to the mast, why did Shen Yun take the bait?"
"...I don't understand either, it's all the leader's arrangement." Baiying shook her head and said, "Maybe, Shen Yun has something in the leader's hands?"
"What is it worth for someone like Shen Yun to risk himself?" Liao Yungui was puzzled, "Liao feels that..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt an extremely dangerous killing intent—that cold feeling was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, oozing with deadly venom, and it almost turned into thousands of steel knives, rushing towards the people on the shore Great army!
Liao Yun didn't have time to think about it when he came back, so he pulled out the Quexie sword on his back, raised his breath and jumped towards the Yangtze River, and then swung his sword fiercely towards the river that was gradually calming down as the fire gradually extinguished!
"boom!!!"
The huge waves broke through the sky, and the green water piled up thousands of snow!
The Rolling Yangtze River was forcibly split open a crack horizontally, and the water curtain aroused by the sword energy was tens of feet high, as if a curtain had been drawn between the sky and the earth out of thin air, and countless burning wooden boards and wreckage were drawn into it , the remaining flames are as bright as a galaxy, so high that they almost reach the sky in one moment, and are submerged by layers of river water in the next moment, and they don't know where they are going.
And the sword-wielding Taoist priest in plain clothes came facing the wind, as if riding waves, with the momentum of thunderous waves, the second sword pierced through the water curtain, and hit something with a "clang".
"Hehe... I heard that someone from the Haoqi League has stepped into the threshold of a sword master. I just take it for nothing." Amidst the roaring waves, the figure of a man in red clothes was revealed, and his whole body was dripping wet. In order to avoid the explosion, he dived directly into the bottom of the river.
But he escaped from death, but he was not embarrassed.Shen Yun held the long-spear that was touching the Que Xie sword, and stared at Liao Yungui with hawk-like eyes, and said with a half-smile: "I didn't expect the Taoist priest to cut the Yangtze River with one sword...the sword skills are really awesome."
"Don't dare to take it." Liao Yungui narrowed his eyes, "Shen Guzhu's "Kong Ming Jue" is so superb that it is hard to guard against."
"No matter how hard to guard against martial arts, it's not as scary as the hard to guard against human heart." Shen Yun suddenly increased his strength, forcefully suppressing the Que Xie sword by two points, "Daoist, do you think so?"
"It's really sad that Guzhu only has this kind of understanding for many years." Faced with Shen Yun's sudden attack, Liao Yungui did not continue to confront him head-on, but drew his sword backwards, and the tip of the sword drew a long water curtain on the river, Countless water waves were forced to gather and form under the turbulent sword energy, condensed into a cold dagger, and rushed towards Shen Yun who was close at hand!
Thousands of Swords Return to the Sect!
What is the level of the Juggernaut Realm? It's really hard to describe.But at this moment, everyone standing on both sides of the strait, whether they are noble or wicked, were shocked by the monstrous sword intent wrapped in the river, and by the thousands of water swords tearing the sky. Doubt whether the name of the Juggernaut is too real, everyone knows that such a sword is already beyond the reach of too many people in their lifetime.
Including Shen Yun, the life-seeking gun that shocked the world back then.
Before Liao Yungui's move "Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Sect" hadn't taken shape, Shen Yun had already speared the river's surface in the lightning and flint, and retreated quickly under the cover of layers of water curtains. The eighteen cavalry on standby on the bank were already prepared to meet Helping him block most of the attacks—but even so, he was scratched a few places by the unavoidable surging sword energy.
Although there were probably not many people in the world who could avoid this trick alive, Shen Yun still felt a bit of uncontrollable anger when he raised his gun and landed on the shore.
Twenty or thirty years ago, he dared to enter the Western Regions alone to kill the head of the enemy, dared to bloodbath the Kunlun Changsheng Cave, the South China Sea Monster, the Tianshan Giant Bear, and the ghosts and ghosts of the wicked valley. What was he afraid of?
When did he retreat more than half a point?
Now, he was forced back by a young man in his 20s.
Shen Yun looked up and saw that on the broad river, the young sword master was holding a sword in one hand and holding his back in the other hand, stepping on the edge of the broken ship plank, rolling waves back and forth, making the lonely figure in the sky and the earth look thinner and thinner It's deceitful, but who would have expected that this figure has the aura of being one man and one man alone?
After all, he was old, as were his opponents and friends.
And this arena has never been short of new and young talents. Those fresh blood almost always grow up unexpectedly, stepping on the bones of the predecessors and replacing the old legends.
"Sometimes, he has a really good eye for choosing a master." Shen Yun laughed, "He didn't have such a level back then in Black Dragon Marsh... I wonder why you refused to abandon him to worship me, the disciple of the current Sword Master , speaking of it, it is indeed more valuable and prestige than some Shaogu master."
"In this world, how can everything be measured by whether it's worth it or not?" Ye Youqi asked back, "You saved my father back then, and now you save my mother, is it because you want to save them, or are they worth saving?"
"...Such eloquence is more like Feng Jun." Shen Yun looked Ye Youqi up and down, and suddenly sighed, "It's a pity, it's not like A Ci."
These words were very strange, Ye Youqi didn't have time to think about it, and saw Liao Yungui draw back his sword on the river and retreated, landing lightly on the bank.
Immediately, the leader Qi Yun's voice sounded at the bank of the river with a distorted volume: "Master Chen, are you still satisfied with the gift that Qi has carefully prepared?"
