At the beginning of the child's time, on the top of the misty cloud mountain.
Xiao Feng stood upright in an open space, with the mountain breeze blowing, his white hair flowing, and his robes rustling.
Yang Liushi was sitting paralyzed with her back against a boulder. Her acupuncture points were pressed and she couldn't move at all, but her eyes were open, full of uneasiness and nervousness.
She could vaguely guess what Xiao Feng was going to do.
"You don't have to look at me like that."
Xiao Feng looked up at the night sky and said calmly: "I just want to know what he would choose."
"You should know Lu Jingyao."
"He used Yao'er as bait to lure me into the Wei Mansion, and then forced me to choose between himself and Yao'er to live."
"I...choose myself."
"well......"
Xiao Feng sighed deeply, entangled not only with the corners of his clothes blown by the wind, but also with the hazy shadows on the ground.
"After that... I always looked down on myself, but I never regretted it or thought I had done something wrong."
"But the strange thing is that there is always a hurdle in my heart that I...can't get over."
"That's why I want to know what he would choose."
After saying this again, Xiao Feng withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Yangliu Shi, whose eyes were a little complicated.
"In order to know this answer, I have spent sixty years of my life. In fact, even if I kill him tonight, I will not have many years left to live."
"But this answer is really important to me..."
"I'm sorry for taking advantage of you."
"He didn't kill Yao'er back then, so no matter what he chooses tonight, I won't kill you either."
"If you want to seek revenge from me in the future, I will accompany you at any time."
"If I die...then it doesn't matter."
The old trees are blown away by the wind, and the moon is out, the stars are scarce, and the sky is cold.
Xiao Feng stopped talking and turned to look at the only hiking trail, as motionless as a stone sculpture.
He did not tell Yang Liushi about his blood feud with the Wei family, nor did he talk about Wei Changtian's bad behavior of "going back on his word".
None of this makes sense.
Whether it was the wedding robbery in the Wei Mansion, or the time at the foot of Yudu Mountain on the Double Ninth Festival...if you lose, you lose.
But this time, I must win.
This belief is stronger than ever before, but maybe even Xiao Feng himself didn't notice... The reason why he wanted to kill Wei Changtian was already different from the first time.
In other words, it is no longer as pure as it was at the beginning.
The crescent moon is getting higher and higher, and the mountain wind is getting stronger and stronger.
Yang Liushi, who was sitting slumped aside, was in an equally complicated mood at this time.
She could see Xiao Feng's confidence and became more and more worried about Wei Changtian's safety.
This courtesan who had been regarded as Chang'e's descendant by countless men kept praying in her heart that Wei Changtian would not come, but she also knew that Wei Changtian's character would not miss this opportunity to kill Xiao Feng.
Then...what will the young master choose?
Although she was trying her best to escape, Yang Liushi still thought of this problem.
From the most fundamental point of view, she certainly hopes that Wei Changtian will live and she will die.
And she also felt that Wei Changtian would definitely choose this way.
But......
This kind of contradictory psychology is inevitable. Yang Liushi doesn't know how she will feel if she really hears Wei Changtian's answer, but she probably won't be very calm.
The sound of the heartbeat is rapid and clear, but becomes blurry when mixed with the sound of the wind.
Suddenly, a figure appeared on the mountain road not far away.
He was not walking fast, and his steps seemed a bit heavy. The moonlight illuminated his tall and straight outline, making him look cold and indifferent without any ripples.
For some reason, Yang Liushi suddenly felt that Wei Changtian was a little strange at this moment.
But before she could figure out where this feeling came from, she saw Wei Changtian standing a few feet away from Xiao Feng, and then gently patted away the weeds that had stuck to his sleeves while climbing.
"Xiao Feng, we meet again."
...
...
According to the conventions of martial arts novels, the decisive battle between masters must be held in some commemorative or beautiful place.
For example, Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng at the top of the Forbidden City.
For example, Guo Jing and Yang Kang in Yanyu Tower, Jiaxing.
For example, Hong Qigong and Ouyang Feng at the top of Mount Huashan.
Comparing it like this, Yanyun Mountain is indeed a bit stretchy. Maybe the atmosphere of "Tongtian Peak", the leader of Shiwanda Mountain, or Jiuding Mountain, where Tianluo Sect is located, would be more suitable.
Of course, this is from the perspective of the spectator.
As for the two protagonists of the decisive battle, Wei Changtian and Xiao Feng...as long as they can kill each other, they can do it in the toilet.
"..."
The cold wind was still there, blowing the clothes of the two of them.
Seeing Wei Changtian again after half a year, Xiao Feng actually didn't feel too much because he had seen the man opposite him too many times in "Dream Road".
Although the two have never fought against each other, Mengdao cannot simulate fighting.
But this does not prevent Xiao Feng from reminding himself in his "dream" every night not to forget Wei Changtian's appearance.
On the other side, Wei Changtian's mood at the moment was a little different.
After all, Xiao Feng's white hair is too obvious.
Did he really make a deal with the remnant soul in Xuantian Sword?
He looked at the black sword behind Xiao Feng and took a deep breath slowly.
"Xiao Feng, ten days ago you killed my subordinate and left a blood letter."
"Now that I'm here as promised, man... shouldn't you let me go?"
"..."
From just now to now, Wei Changtian has never glanced at Yang Liushi who was not far away, even though the latter had been looking at him.
This really wasn't his intention to show a cold and heartless attitude, it was mainly because he was afraid that Xiao Feng would sneak attack him if he looked away.
And it turns out that the real "protagonist" does not have such a crooked mind like him.
Xiao Feng took a deep look at Wei Changtian and replied calmly: "Wei Changtian, I never said I would let him go when you come."
"If you really want to save her, you need to answer me one more question."
"A question you once asked me..."
"Canglang!!"
Before he finished speaking, the long black sword with murderous intent was suddenly unsheathed.
Wei Changtian's expression changed, and he subconsciously prepared to draw his sword.
But when he saw the direction that the Xuantian Sword was pointing, he slowly pulled out half of the Dragon's Yin and put it back into the scabbard.
"Wei Changtian, you and her will live together today."
He raised the sword with one hand, and the tip of the sword was only a few inches away from Yang Liushi.
Xiao Feng tried his best to control his emotions, but his voice was still a little hoarse at this moment.
"It's up to you to choose who dies and who lives."
...
I don't know if Xiao Feng did it unintentionally or intentionally, but what he said was exactly the same as what Wei Changtian said that day.
Same problem.
But Wei Changtian's answer was completely different.
It was like child's play, he just thought about it for less than a breath, and then casually gave the answer under the incredulous eyes of Xiao Feng and Yang Liushi.
"I choose to let her live."
I choose to let her live...
Let her live...
These words hit Xiao Feng's chest like a heavy hammer.
"No, it's impossible..."
He staggered back half a step, and Xuantian Sword also dropped weakly.
It's not that Xiao Feng didn't expect this answer, he just didn't understand why Wei Changtian didn't even hesitate.
Could it be that I was really wrong...
Why......
Unprecedented self-denial instantly flooded my mind, and the violence suppressed in my heart began to stir again.
But at this moment, a passing thought suddenly made Xiao Feng figure everything out.
"Wei Changtian..."
His figure gradually stopped shaking, and Xuantian Sword was raised again.
But this time, the tip of the sword was pointing straight forward.
Xiao Feng raised his head little by little and said slowly and coldly:
"You think I can't kill you, that's why you choose this way, right?"
"..."
Damn, I was caught by his reaction.
Wei Changtian cursed secretly in his heart, but of course he couldn't admit it with his mouth.
"You are thinking too much. As long as you release the person first, I will stand here and kill you as you please."
"..."
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!"
As if he heard some big joke, Xiao Feng suddenly raised his head and laughed, instantly frightening countless birds in the forest.
"Hahahaha! Wei Changtian! Then I'll let you see! Whether I can kill you or not!"
The crazy laughter stopped suddenly, Xiao Feng stared at Wei Changtian with red eyes, and said hoarsely:
"Seniors! Come out!"
"..."
"Shashasha~"
Like a breeze passing by, a sudden burst of leaves swayed behind Xiao Feng, and soon five people walked out of the forest.
But their expressions were not relaxed.
Because almost at the same moment, a group of figures flashed behind Wei Changtian, and eight figures also appeared.
Five on one side and eight on the other.
The two groups of people stopped behind Xiao Feng and Wei Changtian at the same time, staring at each other silently.
The entire Yanyun Mountain Peak fell into a deathly silence.
Oh shit......
Although they both had a rough estimate of each other's preparations, Wei Changtian and Xiao Feng, who were at the center of the storm, actually felt their hearts sink at this moment.
Wei Changtian did not expect that the remnant soul would directly find five masters for Xiao Feng this time.
The same goes for Xiao Feng.
However, the two of them quickly suppressed their uneasiness and anxiety, because they both knew——
Now there is no way out.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths...
Time passed little by little, and three short breaths seemed like three hours had passed.
In fact, just looking at this scene, it looks a bit like the confrontation between two gangsters and their younger brothers.
But if you were really in the scene, I'm afraid no one would have such thoughts.
Excluding Yangliu Shi, there were a total of fifteen people from the two parties.
But these fifteen people actually created a strong sense of oppression that only occurs when two armies confront each other.
Dark clouds are pressing down on the city, threatening to destroy it.
But this time, the dark clouds were not pressing down on the city, but on the small Yanyun Mountain.
Amidst the imaginary and real sounds of horses neighing, war drums, and bows drawn, the mountain wind that whined and howled all night stopped.
...
...
The path of spiritual practice is divided into nine levels.
Seven, eight, and nine are the lower third grade, four, five, and six are the middle third grade, and one, two, and three are the upper third grade.
There is a reason for such division.
The lower third level trains "strength". Internal force cannot penetrate the body and can only circulate in the body of the practitioner. In the eyes of ordinary people, it seems that it is just stronger.
The third level of the middle level trains "qi", and the internal force can be released through the body, which can derive many magical effects.
What you practice at the third level is "shi".
Whether it is the third-level realm of "using force as a blade" or the second-level realm of "power over mountains and rivers", it is not difficult to see from the name that it is related to "momentum".
Before Wei Changtian traveled through time, he only felt that momentum was similar to temperament, which was a comprehensive sensory impression of people.
But in fact, this kind of invisible and intangible thing actually exists, and can even be "powerful" in this world.
For example, at this moment, Yanyun Mountain seems to be covered by a huge transparent cover.
There is no wind, no sound, the grass leaves lie on the ground, and all the beasts are hiding in their nests.
Maybe in the huge Yanyun Mountain, apart from the fifteen people present, the only one who can still move right now is Li Huaizhong.
"Wei Zhaohai, Qin Zhengqiu, Liang Zhen..."
On an old tree in the forest not far away, the old eunuch's cloudy pupils almost shrank to the size of peas.
He had anticipated many situations on the way here.
But even the most exaggerated expectations were not half as good as the scene before us.
Familiar names flashed through my mind, but that was the second priority...
What shocked Li Huaizhong even more was the people on Xiao Feng's side.
Wu Tianqing, Chang Shuan, Li Mingchun......
Is it really them?
How can this be???
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Li Huaizhong would never have believed that these hidden masters scattered all over the world would appear here at the same time, and they would actually look up to them as a white-haired young man he had never seen before.
Who is this person?!
Li Huaizhong stared at Xiao Feng, and kept wondering about Wei Changtian's grudge against this person.
But at this moment, someone moved.
"clatter!"
"clatter!"
Footsteps from the east and west sides sounded at the same time, very softly.
"Changtian, five second-grade ones."
"Master Xiao, three second-grade, five third-grade."
"..."
The two sentences reached the ears of Wei Changtian and Xiao Feng respectively, and their reactions were naturally different.
Although the gap between the second grade and the third grade is not a "cloud and mud difference", it is definitely not small.
After all, leapfrog battles can only be the privilege of the "protagonist", and it is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to do it.
Therefore, Liang Zhen and his five five third-level players can only hold back one second-level player at most.
So much more...
"Grandpa, can you shoot two?"
Wei Changtian suddenly asked Qin Zhengqiu beside him in a low voice.
As the leader of Tianluo Sect currently has the highest combat power in Daning, Wei Changtian can only place his hope on this.
but......
"Two second-grade ones can't do anything to me, but I'm afraid I don't have time to take care of more... Changtian, let's go."
Qin Zhengqiu's eyes narrowed slightly and his expression was very serious.
Wei Changtian sighed softly and understood why Qin Zhengqiu said this.
In the final analysis, there is no life-or-death grudge between these second- and third-grade masters. The only goal of both sides is to kill themselves and Xiao Feng.
In the eyes of the upper-level third-level people, the sixth-level realm is not much different from an ordinary person. It is basically a matter of casual moves.
In this case, even if Qin Zhengqiu can deal with two second-grades, as long as the other party takes the time to give him a try, there is a high probability that he will die on the spot.
So the current situation is already extremely unfavorable.
Even if he escapes, whether he can escape or not is another question.
"..."
Wei Changtian fell into silence for a long time, and Xiao Feng naturally knew his huge advantage.
However, he didn't show any sign of success. He just took a slight step forward and pointed at Yangliu Shi.
"Wei Changtian, you can choose again now."
"You or her, who dies and who lives."
"..."
Same problem, completely different situation.
However, Wei Changtian still gave the same answer without hesitation.
"Are you done with the fuck? I've already said, let her live!"
