The pale moonlight squeezed through the dark clouds and fell on the earth again.
There was silence all around, and everyone was speechless by Wei Changtian's "choose one of two happiness" operation.
On one side is his own life, on the other side is the life of the woman who loves him deeply.
This choice is no less difficult than the classic proposition "Your mother and I fell into the water at the same time" in the previous life.
"..."
Xiao Feng gritted his teeth and stared at Wei Changtian, the hatred in his eyes getting stronger and stronger.
He knew that Wei Changtian wanted to kill his own heart, and also kill Lu Jingyao's heart.
But he had no choice.
It wasn't until this moment that Xiao Feng realized deeply that conspiracy was actually more terrifying than conspiracy.
"Crunch."
The sound of his teeth grinding was a bit harsh, and he remained silent for a long time.
On the contrary, Lu Jingyao, who had just recovered from the shock, took the lead and shouted in a panic:
"Master Xiao! Leave me alone!"
"If it hadn't been for your rescue that time, I probably wouldn't have survived!"
"I am very satisfied to see you in the Wei family today, and I will die without regrets!"
"It's up to Yao'er to return this life to the young master..."
Fear of death is human instinct, and no one is truly afraid of death.
The same goes for Lu Jingyao, her trembling voice was filled with fear.
But she still firmly raised her head and took one last look at Xiao Feng, and then suddenly reached out to grab the long sword in Wei Changtian's hand.
It was obvious that this silly woman was afraid of Xiao Feng being embarrassed, so she was ready to kill herself.
well.
Sighing secretly, Wei Changtian dodged slightly, and Lu Jingyao jumped into the air, falling to the ground awkwardly with a "plop".
The two cloth guards who were more attentive to her words immediately stepped forward and held her down, while Wei Changtian also turned his attention to Xiao Feng.
"My patience is limited, I will give you three more breaths at the end."
"If you don't have an answer after three puffs, then both of you will die."
"three two……"
"Can you keep your words?"
Xiao Feng suddenly raised his head with a gloomy look on his face.
Wei Changtian smiled softly: "Of course."
"Well……"
Xiao Feng took a deep breath and did not dare to look at Lu Jingyao. Instead, he lowered his head and squeezed out a few words through his teeth.
"Yao'er, I'm sorry..."
"..."
Lu Jingyao's face instantly turned pale. She felt as if all her strength had been suddenly taken away from her body. She didn't know whether she should cry or laugh at this moment.
This result is indeed "just what she wanted", but...
Lu Jingyao was not surprised that Xiao Feng would make such a choice, because just when he failed to seize the sword, she clearly saw the flash of disappointment in Xiao Feng's eyes.
An unprecedented feeling of despair came over me.
At this moment, she finally understood the true meaning of the sentence "I originally set my heart toward the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch."
Close your eyes and stop looking at Xiao Feng.
There seems to be something in my heart that is broken...
On the other side, Xiao Feng didn't have the shame to say any harsh words like "I will definitely avenge you" at this time. Instead, he slowly stood up from the ground and walked out of the Wei Mansion step by step dragging his seriously injured body.
go.
He walked very slowly, seemingly unprepared for the people behind him... but in fact, he had no ability to take any precautions at all.
Now if he wants to survive, he can only hope that Wei Changtian can keep his promise.
"Son! Do you really want to let him go?"
Qin Caizhen on the side was a little anxious.
"Of course."
Wei Changtian smiled slightly and turned to look at Wei Xianzhi: "I keep my word!"
He deliberately emphasized the word "I", but Wei Xianzhi didn't understand the meaning and immediately laughed and said:
"Jie Jie Jie Jie!"
"Xiao Feng! Although my son has let you go, I didn't say I would let you go!"
"Suffer death!"
"Whoosh!"
The invisible palm wind roared towards the staggering figure. It was estimated that the next second would be a firework of flesh and blood.
Looking at this scene, everyone present had different thoughts in their minds at the moment.
Xiao Feng: What a fool! If I had known this, I might as well have acted more righteously!
Wei Changtian: I finally heard what the villain’s exclusive laughter like “Jie Jie” sounds like!
Wei Xianzhi: Changtian is not soft-hearted, that’s good! It’s a bit like my style back then!
Qin Caizhen: Humph! My husband actually said that I am old! It’s so annoying!
Commoner Guardsmen: Commander, you are so shameless!
Lu Jingyao: My heart hurts so much that I can’t breathe...
"boom!!"
Regardless of whether everyone was happy or sad at this time, the palm of the void with the potential of the third level would not change, and it hit Xiao Feng's back hard in the blink of an eye.
it's over.
Wei Changtian breathed a sigh of relief, but what happened in the next second made his eyes widen again.
The expected scene of flying flesh and blood did not appear. A ball of green light appeared from nowhere and suddenly enveloped Xiao Feng's entire body at the last moment, and also eliminated Wei Xianzhi's palm.
Everyone opened their mouths wide, dumbfounded at this strange scene they had never seen before.
"Swish! Swish, swish, swish!"
Without waiting for Wei Xianzhi's order, several civilian guards jumped on the ground and rushed towards that direction.
But before they reached halfway, the green light suddenly disappeared again.
The place was empty, and there was no trace of Xiao Feng anywhere.
…
In a dark room.
Wei Changtian was sitting at a wooden table, with a night-light lamp hanging on the wall. In front of him were two halves of broken jade, with the cracks just right enough to fit together.
"Changtian, I will order someone to search through various ancient books in the department tomorrow to see if I can find any clues about this object."
Wei Xianzhi frowned, seemingly unable to recognize the origin of this jade plaque.
Not only can it automatically protect the master and block a third-level attack, but it can also "shift the world". This is simply the legendary treasure of the immortal!
Fortunately, judging from Xiao Feng's reaction, he probably didn't know that this thing was so awesome, and he probably got it by accident.
"It's okay son, that Xiao Feng has been hit by mother's broken flower palm. Even if he escapes temporarily, if he doesn't have the first-rate holy hands to treat him immediately, he will still be dead."
"And even if he survives, it will only be a matter of hanging on for a while longer. Sooner or later, his power will be exhausted and he will die."
Qin Caizhen saw that Wei Changtian kept looking sad, so she softly comforted him with a few words.
However, the couple did not know that Wei Changtian was not worried about not being able to kill Xiao Feng at all, nor was he worried about what this jade token was.
At this moment, he was thinking about one question - where did this jade medal come from?
If I remember correctly, Xiao Feng should have gotten his first life-saving item in the middle of the novel, and it was also a Tie Ruyi.
As for this ordinary jade medal... I don’t remember it appearing until the end of the novel!
Could it be that I have forgotten it? After all, I read online articles at a glance, so it is normal to not remember some details clearly.
Or...his "abnormal" behavior has produced a butterfly effect?
It seems that these are the only two explanations.
After pondering for a long time, Wei Changtian raised his head and looked at Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen.
No matter what, hunting down Xiao Feng is still the top priority at the moment.
You want to see a corpse when you die, and you want to see a corpse when you live!
For this reason, he doesn't mind continuing to leak a little bit of the plot in advance.
"Dad, do you still remember the smuggling of salt case handled by Hualingwei three years ago? A whole family was wiped out because of it."
"this……"
Wei Xianzhi was stunned. He didn't understand what his son was talking about, and he didn't remember such a small case as "smuggling salt".
The Three Guards and Three Divisions of the Xuanjing Division handle so many cases and kill so many people every year, how could he remember all the top leaders?
"Why do you ask this? What does it have to do with Xiao Feng?"
"That family's surname is Xiao."
Wei Changtian paused for a moment, and answered in a deep voice under the surprised gazes of Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen: "When Hualing Guards ransacked their homes, Xiao Feng happened to be traveling abroad..."
