Suddenly a whistle sounded softly in the empty corridor.

Xue Ning clenched the rusty sword and turned around suddenly.

A thin figure hung upside down from the beam, swinging like a bat.

——It's Shao Feng, the second boss of the black market.

"Come back to find Xiuxiu?"

The young man stood frozen in the cold wind for a moment, then nodded and admitted.

"It's too late." Shao Feng let go of his legs and jumped down from the beam. "She might have returned to Fourth Master Feng now..."

"Second Master—Second Master—"

Suddenly, a figure came rushing along the corridor, his eyebrows were anxious and he was panic-stricken.

Shao Feng stood with his hands behind his hands and asked calmly: "Why are you so panicked?"

The subordinate said: "Our people found...the body of Miss Pingxiu...ah!"

The young man grabbed the man's collar, and the color drained from his face.

"What happened to Xiu Xiu? What happened to Xiu Xiu?"

The man still had a look of shock on his face, and said sadly: "Miss Pingxiu... was killed."

Xue Ning's hands slowly dropped from the man's body. He couldn't help but take a few steps back, but felt his ears roaring and the world spinning.

"This is impossible, impossible..."

Xue Ning held the sword, staggered, and walked forward in a daze, as if he had lost his soul.

Shao Feng was also too shocked. It took him a long time to take a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Gather the powerful cavalry guards in the mansion and go to the dense forest of boundary monuments!"

Xue Ning was awakened by the second master's voice. He suddenly jumped up, walked out of the mansion in a few ups and downs, and walked toward the boundary monument with his sword.

The border between the Black Market and Tianyuan Dao Sect is bounded by a boundary monument. To the north of the boundary monument are dense forests, and to the south of the boundary monument is Daoyangguan.

Right now, most of the edge of the dense forest was burned by a fire.

The fire was fierce, and the golden-red flames on the charred land were like hellfire lotuses, swaying and burning.

A big golden umbrella opened and fell alone in the scorched earth.

The cold wind blew by, and the umbrella cover swayed slightly.

Xue Ning felt like the sword was piercing his heart, he vomited out a mouthful of blood, and fell straight down from the flying sword.

He fell to the ground with a thud, but felt no pain at all. He immediately propped himself up with his hands and crawled forward.

To the north of the boundary monument, there was the sound of horse hooves and billowing yellow dust, and the Feng family's black-armored guards were pressing towards this direction solemnly and silently.

Fourth Master Feng took the lead, rushed into the scorched earth, turned over and jumped off his horse.

"Xiuxiu——"

With a heart-rending roar, Fourth Master Feng frantically searched the scorched earth.

Soon, he found a body burned to charcoal near the Five Elements Tianluo Umbrella.

Fourth Master Feng picked up the corpse with trembling hands, grunting in his throat, letting out a sad and suppressed sob.

The leader of the Black Armored Guards, who was famous for his bravery and fearlessness, was crying like a child while holding his daughter's body in his arms.

Xue Ning finally climbed up to Fourth Master Feng.

Fourth Master Feng lowered his head and looked at him, looking at him like a dead thing.

The remaining flames burned around the man and the boy, and black smoke billowed up.

Fourth Master Feng asked in a trembling voice: "Is this fire... the poisonous fire of the Black Sky Dog clan?"

Xue Ning clutched the hem of Fourth Master Feng's clothes and repeated numbly: "It's not her, right?"

Fourth Master Feng spoke with a sonorous voice, forged from gold and iron: "I, Feng Si, will never give up until I slaughter all the Black Sky Dog clan in my lifetime."

After Fourth Master Feng finished speaking, he no longer looked at the young man, nor did he complain to the young man that his daughter had been implicated by him and asked him to stay away as he did in the past.

He held his daughter's body and walked step by step towards the silent black-armored guard.

The black-armored guard came like lightning and left like wind, disappearing from the young man's sight in an instant.

Xue Ning was in a daze and completely lost the ability to think.

He climbed to the side of the Five Elements Heavenly Umbrella, put away the magic weapon, and sat in the scorched earth holding the Five Elements Heavenly Law Umbrella.

Xiuxiu is dead.

The four words fell on his mind like a ridiculous lie.

Apparently they parted ways in the black market two hours ago, and she was still standing in front of him alive.

How could she die?

No, it's impossible.

This must be a joke God played on him.

——You killed her.

Suddenly a low murmur came to my ears.

The inner demon sat quietly in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, with demon flames all over his body, stretching his body freely and peacefully.

The inner demon said happily: "Without this shackles, I am finally free."

Xue Ning was shocked.

The inner demon clicked his tongue: "She's dead, you wish you could just go with her, don't you?"

"She was right to scold you, you are a coward!"

"Do you know why the Black Sky Dog killed your mother and crushed Han Zhiming of Zhenwu Temple to ashes? Can he still be alive and kicking until now?"

"Do you know why Shen Jue killed his senior brother, imprisoned his wife, and abandoned his daughter, yet he can still be the leader of his Tianyuan Dao Sect?"

"It's not because they're mean, they're shameless, they're doing everything they can."

"It's because they have high cultivation! It's because they have power in their hands!"

"Do you know what power is?"

"Power is-" When the inner demon said this, the scene in the sea of ​​​​consciousness suddenly changed.

In a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, numerous bones were piled up to form a bone throne.

The inner demon stepped on the bones and climbed to the top, turned around and sat down in the throne, resting his chin on his hands, looking down at the young soul standing in the sea of ​​blood.

The inner demon's eyes were stern, as if looking at an ant.

"Power is in heaven and on earth, and I am the only one who has the power."

"As long as you hold the power, the rules of this world are determined by you. Everything in the world is up to you to take or take away."

"You can be with whoever you want to be with. In this world, no one can stop you, no one can stop you."

The inner demon chuckled and said: "Remember? Black Sky Dog once said that he would train you as his successor, and also promised to help you marry Pingxiu."

"At that time, you had the opportunity to make the best choice."

"You made the wrong choice, and the price is your sweetheart's life."

The inner demon's face suddenly changed into a face exactly like that of the boy.

That face is very strange, and it can make two expressions on one face.

The right half of the face is sparse and indulgent, while the left half is full of compassion.

"If you want to die with her, you have to kill her killer first, right?"

"Now there is a right choice before you."

"Merge with me and I will make you stronger."

"I can help you gain supreme power."

The inner demon opened his hands, making a hug, and said with a smile: "Come on, let's see whether you can devour me or I can eat you in the end."

The young man's soul moved slightly.

Then, he took firm steps and climbed up to the Bone Throne step by step.

The young soul sat down on the Bone Throne.

The inner demon was surrounded by black flames, and the young man was as pale as snow.

One black and one white, a stark contrast.

The two figures were like melting snow, slowly blending together, and finally merged into a new soul. With his eyes closed and his face calm, he sat peacefully on the throne.

The eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, and the young man slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were as clear as water, without any emotion, and the black and white eyes were like two artificial eyes made of glass beads.

Suddenly, a loud cry came from outside Shiwai: "The traitor Xue Ning, I will capture you if you don't show mercy!"

Xue Ning was like a drowning person who suddenly broke out of the water and suddenly inhaled a large amount of fresh air. He was suddenly extracted from the state of confusion and despair.

It was like he was having a long dream.

In the dream, there was a girl he loved deeply, and a tenderness he had never experienced in his life.

Yesterday's various things, such as yesterday's death.

Now that he woke up from the dream, he finally fell back into the cold reality.

He seemed to be reborn, and it was like that.

A crystal teardrop slid down the young man's face and fell into the ashes.

From then on, the boy never shed tears again.

Xue Ning gently put the Five Elements Heavenly Umbrella aside, raised his hand, and the Rust King Sword flew from a distance and fell into his hand.

The leader of the guard recognized the Wang Sword in the young man's hand and said in shock: "Bold Xue Ning, how dare you sneak into the sword tomb and steal the Wang Sword! Someone, capture him!"

All the sword guards formed a sword formation with their hands pinching the spirit arts.

The sword formation was like an overwhelming net, blocking all escape routes.

Once in the battle, there is no escape.

Xue Ning held the sword in his right hand, put the two fingers of his left hand together and gently stroked the sword stem.

The rusty sword blade suddenly burst into dazzling aura.

The girl's voice traveled through time and reached his ears from the distant past——

"Xue Ning, before I came to Tianyuan Dao Sect, I once had a precognitive dream related to you."

"In the dream, I was killed by Wang Jian."

"After I die, you dig out your right eye while you are still alive, and use the method of tempering the sword with the heart flame to temper the king's sword."

"Have you ever heard of the 'Heart Flame Tempered Sword'?"

His answer at that time was: "Never heard of it."

But at this moment, he suddenly understood the method of tempering the king's sword into his natal spiritual sword without any teacher.

The young man raised his hand and touched the socket of his right eye. His fingers suddenly dug in and forcefully dug out the blood-red eyeball!

Dark red blood flowed down the young man's snow-white face, making his handsome face look like an evil Shura ghost.

All the sword guards were frightened by his actions and did not know what his intention was.

"superior--"

The remaining sword guards swarmed forward and attacked the young man in the ashes.

The young man held his eyeball in his hand and his arm was suspended above the rusty sword.

Thousands of flying swords approached, and the young man suddenly crushed his eyes. Gold-like flames emerged from between his fingers, lingering on the sword stem, burning away the rust on the sword, revealing a dark iron color.

With one sword, mountains and rivers are eclipsed!

One sword strike destroyed everything, as easily as tearing paper, destroying the sword array carefully arranged by the sword guards.

……

On the black market streets, the whole city is under martial law.

On the top of the clock tower, the black sky dog ​​and the nine-tailed fox mother pretending to be clock tower guards looked south.

After a while, the nine-tailed fox mother asked, "You didn't go after Shen Jue, so why did you kill your son's little love by mistake?"

Black Sky Dog's expression was not very good: "Shen Jue is a cunning old man..."

The nine-tailed fox mother covered her lips with her hands and said with a gloating smile: "He was seriously injured and one of his arms was broken. How can you still fall in his hands? Hahaha..."

"Your cheap son knows that you are not dead, and he will definitely come to you for revenge now."

The nine-tailed fox mother saw that the black sky dog ​​was defeated. The more she thought about it, the happier she felt in her heart, and she laughed so hard.

"You want to see master and apprentice fighting each other, now it's better, then again and again, the drama becomes father and son fighting each other again."

Black Sky Dog looked away, turned around, picked up the bell pillar, and sounded the death knell.

"That's not necessarily true," he said quietly, "If he wants to kill me, he will definitely kill Shen Jue."

Black Sky Dog said, throwing away the bell pillar and walking down the bell tower: "Islam."

Ayin jumped down from the city wall and followed Black Sky Dog in a bounding motion.

"Lord Pope, you clearly had the opportunity to kill that thief Shen Jue before, why did you let him go?"

Black Sky Dog followed suit and said: "If Shen Jue dies, into whose hands will the Tianyuan Dao Sect fall?"

Ayin tilted her head and thought for a while, but still couldn't answer, so she could only turn her eyes to Ajiu Fox Mother for help.

"Sister Ajiu," she whispered, "whose hands will it fall into?"

The nine-tailed fox mother loves Ah Yin's sweet little mouth the most. Calling her "Sister Ah Jiu" really makes her whole body feel comfortable.

She smiled brightly and said: "When Shen Jue dies, Yu Anxing, who is in charge of Xiuwen Academy, must take over. In terms of mental strategy, ruthless means, and decisiveness, this senior brother Shen Jue is not inferior to Shen Jue at all."

"What you, the Pope, want is not a Tianyuan Dao Sect with an iron bucket, but a Tianyuan Dao Sect that is divided into pieces."

"Their senior brothers are in the situation they are in today. If Shen Jue goes back, do you think he will let his good senior brother go?"

"Will that old ghost Yu Anxing just sit back and wait to die, letting mermaids eat his flesh?"

Ayin suddenly realized it, clapped his hands and said: "That's it, Your Holiness the Pope is wise."

The group of three people gradually drifted away, submerged in the busy streets.

The Ten Sect Competition ended dismally due to the attacks of Blood Moon Sect and Evil Demon Valley.

Tianyuan Daozong released the latest Zhuxie wanted list, and Xue Ning was at the top of the list.

His crimes were: colluding with the devil and betraying the master; being ungrateful and plotting to kill the master; stealing the king's sword and killing fellow disciples indiscriminately.

Tianyuan Daozong sent countless sword guards to arrest Xue Ning, and the entire Xiuwen Academy was almost emptied of troops.

Not only that, Shen Jue also joined forces with other sects to issue emergency orders and invited fellow immortal sects to jointly arrest this traitor.

But Xue Ning relied on the power of Wang Jian and repeatedly escaped from the encirclement.

Every time he escapes, he must kill one person every ten steps, leaving no trace behind for thousands of miles.

Three days later, a white curtain was hung in Feng Si's house in Zhangtai. The white-haired Feng Si and his wife sent their black-haired people away, which made everyone feel heartbroken when they heard it and shed tears when they saw it.

The sword guards of Tianyuan Daozong ambushed outside Feng Si's mansion in circles. They concluded that Xue Ning would definitely come to attend Pingxiu's funeral, intending to capture him in one fell swoop.

But they came up short.

Xue Ning did not show up.

Tianyuan Daozong was injured this time and his vitality was severely damaged.

The interior is even divided into two. Among the [-] peaks of Tianyuan Dao Sect, seven peaks follow Shen Jue to the death, while the other five peaks only obey the orders of Yu Anxing.

The situation of one mountain and two masters has since begun.

In order to consolidate his power, Shen Jue could only win over allies.

Three months later, Shen Jue had no choice but to hand over Jiang Wan, who was under house arrest, to Yu Anxing, and the next day he took in a beloved disciple of the master of Zhenlong Pavilion as his young lady.

On the wedding night, Shen Jue lifted up the young lady's veil, lowered her head and smiled.

However, the young lady did not reply with a shy smile. Instead, she stood up, knelt down in front of Shen Jue, kowtowed and said, "Master, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my destiny and found the treasure house of Zhenlong Pavilion."
