A-Lan is a girl with a free and easy personality. Now that she has nothing to do, she is about to leave.
Before leaving, she handed over the Wanling Sword she had taken from Huo Tianya to Lu Hanjiang, then sent half of the Moon Shadow Sword back to Gu Ming's sword furnace, and then floated away.
She was alone when she arrived, and she was also alone when she left. She was like a heron in a pond, walking alone. Although she was not alone, she was still difficult to approach.
However, they will meet again one day.
Lu Hanjiang bid farewell to A Lan. There were no willow trees in Zhujian Villa, so Lu Hanjiang picked an unknown flower from the roadside and gave it to him as a farewell gift.
Watching A Lan's figure disappear on the mountain road, Lu Hanjiang turned around. The raging fire was still burning in front of him, and someone still needed to finish things at Zhujian Villa.
The Wangjian Tower was about to collapse, and many disciples from the Sword Making Villa gathered around. These were ordinary chore disciples. At this time, they could only use buckets to bring water from the well to put out the fire.
Wangjian Tower had long been hopeless, but they never gave up. On the other hand, Lu Wen and Guan Shanmo, even at this moment, were still not discouraged and were still working hard to find ways to save people.
The other people trapped in the building didn't know what happened, but Tianfeng and Lingwu on the top had almost decided the winner. After all, Wuyousan was the one holding him back. Lingwu was hit by several swords and was full of blood holes.
His body fell from a tall building and landed in front of everyone.
The almost numb disciples of Zhujian Villa stepped forward and dragged Ling Wu's body away to prevent his body from being destroyed by the fire after his death.
As the winner, Tianfeng's situation is also very difficult. He has no retreat. The fire has blocked all his escape routes. Now it seems that he can only jump in order to survive.
All living beings have their own conditions.
Lu Hanjiang frowned and summoned Ji Qianli. Since someone happened to be at hand, he simply used it and kept this person in vain.
"What are your orders, sir?" Ji Qianli stepped forward and asked respectfully.
"You stay here and watch, and record everything that happens at the Sword-Forging Villa."
Lu Hanjiang looked at the sky high in the distance. Thick smoke covered the sky and the sun. After the fire was extinguished, the boundless blue sky would still be as clear as water. There might be a ruins left, which could be regarded as traces of the former existence of Zhujian Villa.
He asked Ji Qianli to stay while he took the first step down the mountain. On the other side, Wangjian Tower was finally completely destroyed by the fire. It was broken into two parts and the upper six floors fell down.
When the high-rise building collapsed, another figure emerged from the sea of fire. It was Shi Jiuning, the head of Hengshan. She held the unconscious Shi Suxue in her arms, stepped over the railing, and jumped down.
Seeing Taoist Master Tianfeng behind him, he knew that he had no other choice and no longer hesitated. When the building collapsed, he followed Shi Jiuning and jumped down.
Everyone below screamed in surprise, and Lu Wen and Guan Shanmo were even more nervous. The two masters of Nanyue and Beiyue fell together, but the height of this twelve-story building was far from being safe and sound with just a few words of martial arts prowess.
Shi Jiuning also brought Shi Suxue with her. She understood that in this situation, the probability of both of them surviving was extremely low, so she made a prompt decision, changed her body in the air, and mobilized her whole body's energy to lift her disciple up in the air.
In this way, Shi Jiuning protected Shi Suxue at the cost of his own life. When she reached the ground, she would definitely die, but Shi Suxue only fell from a slightly high place, so nothing happened.
Finally, Shi Suxue looked lovingly at her, and Shi Jiuning closed her eyes with satisfaction.
On the other side, Taoist Master Tianfeng swung his sword repeatedly, and the powerful sword energy continued to fly to the ground. He seemed to want to use the force of the rebound to reduce the impact when he landed.
The figures of the three people fell to the ground in the blink of an eye. There were only two loud bangs. Shi Jiuning had no trace of her true energy to protect her body. She fell immediately and all her bones were broken. She saw blood overflowing from the corners of her mouth and her eyes were blurred. It only took a moment.
There was no sound.
However, Shi Suxue was well protected and fell like cotton wool. Lu Wen and Guan Shanmo rushed forward to catch her. When they saw that she was fine, they felt relieved.
As for the last Taoist Master Tianfeng, although his life was safe, his eyes were red at the moment, but he seemed to be even more uncomfortable than death. He was seen kneeling on the ground with his legs covered.
The blood was stained red, and it seemed that he had broken his leg and would be a cripple for the rest of his life.
After the three people landed, the high-rise building collapsed completely. Countless sparks and broken wood flew down like meteors and a sea of fire. Everyone got out of the way. After a loud bang, dust and smoke filled the sky, almost swallowing everyone up.
Ji Qianli fell far away on the edge, and was also blinded by the smoke. He covered his mouth and nose and backed out, until he retreated to the mountain gate. This was considered safe.
Because Lu Hanjiang had orders to be here, he did not dare to leave without permission, so he had to wait quietly. Although Wangjian Tower collapsed, the fire was still not extinguished. It was not until nightfall that the fire gradually dwindled down.
Most of the disciples of Zhujian Villa were killed here, and almost all the respectable people died. The remaining little shrimps worked all day long, and it was not until the next morning that the fire was completely put out.
After the fire was extinguished, an extremely unpleasant smell emanated from the ruins. A disciple of Zhujian Villa went to check it out and immediately vomited it out. The charred corpses all over the ground were like a hell on earth.
Except for Lu Hanjiang and the others who escaped from the disaster, almost all of the Jianghu guests who were invited to the banquet by Huo Tianya were here. They either killed each other because of Wuyou San, or they were killed because they could not escape.
The fire burned him alive.
Lu Wen and Guan Shanmo were stunned in front of this horrific scene, but they quickly showed their qualities as disciples of the great sect. Despite this disgusting scene, they began to search for their fellow disciples.
They were not the only ones sent by the Songshan Sect and Taishan Sect to participate in the Sword Tasting Conference, there were others, but they were all buried here. Their martial arts were low, and although they could not save the lives of these people, at least they had to take their bones back.
In addition to them, there are some people who are also doing the same thing. The lucky ones are not just Lu Wen and Guan Shanmo. There are also a few people who are not in Wangjian Tower for various reasons and therefore escape.
.
But what is surprising is that this one, the former young master of Sword Making Villa, Huo Yunqi, is actually among them.
It was an accident that Huo Yunqi was deposed as the young master. Disheartened, he originally planned to leave Zhujian Villa to explore the world alone, so he did not attend the banquet held by Huo Tianya.
But coincidentally, Huo Yunqi had just come down the mountain yesterday, and while he was resting for a moment in the town, he saw thick smoke rising into the sky from Zhujian Villa behind him. When he realized something was wrong and rushed back without stopping, Wangjian Tower had already been destroyed by fire.
engulf.
He numbly led his disciples to put out the fire. Today, faced with the charred corpses here, he couldn't even identify which of his parents' corpses they were.
But the irony is that his uncle Huo Tianya's body is lying outside in good condition. Although it has no head, it is much better than his parents.
But whether it was to use the corpse to vent his anger or to investigate the reasons behind the incident, Huo Yunqi seemed to have no idea at the moment. He looked at the ruins with a look of confusion in his eyes.
The surviving Taoist Master Tianfeng told everyone the truth, but the culprit Huo Tianya was dead, the rest of the Huo family were also dead, and Zhujian Villa was left in a mess. Huo Yunqi was a junior, and he was really calculating.
He was innocent, and no one had any intention of angering him.
But as far as Huo Yunqi was concerned, he felt that none of this mattered.
In just three days, Huo Yunqi's position as young master was deposed, his parents were killed, his family was destroyed, and the Huo family's legacy, Sword Forging Villa, was destroyed. He really didn't know what to do next.
