Returning to Kunlun Xiaoyao Peak again a few months later, Ye Youqi was in a complicated mood.

Shen Yun kept his word, sent him near Xiaoyao Peak and left, and did not force him to go straight into the Valley of the Evil.

The young man patted the snow on his body, and carefully looked at the hidden cave in front of him, not knowing what it was like in his heart.

His biological father, facing the empty walls, dragged his disabled legs for 20 years... During this period, what was he thinking?Is he also thinking about his missing mother, and resenting this miserable fate?

They are the closest father and son in the world who share the same blood, but they haven't been able to see each other until they die.

Ye Youqi thought of the words written on his palm when he rolled down the cave and his consciousness was fuzzy. He never remembered what the last few words were, but at this moment he suddenly understood them.

That's..."Don't be afraid, kid".

It was as if my heart had been severely scratched by something.

During the years when he was lonely and helpless and bullied everywhere, it turned out that there was someone who loved him with all his life in a place he didn't know.

Ye Youqi lay down on the dilapidated straw mat leaning against the stone wall, trying to feel the scenery Ye Jiuci saw, as if in this way he could travel through those lost times and stay here side by side with his father, like the most beautiful man in the world. Ordinary father and son talk about homework.

"Father, don't worry about me. Although I suffered a little when I was young, I met the best master in the world."

"I like him very much... as much as you like your mother. I like him so much that I can't care about anything and just stay by his side. If you say that, will you be angry with me?"

"I once said that I would stay with and protect Master for the rest of my life, but this time I must have let him down. Dad, teach me, what should I do?"

"If I enter the Valley of the Evil, one day I will enter the Haoqi League... or force myself to the front of Haoqi League leader Qi Yun, Master...will he draw his sword at me? Will he hate me?" Ye Youqi covered his eyes, He whispered to himself, "How could I be willing to make him angry?...But...the hatred between my parents is irreconcilable, I really...have no other choice..."

The surroundings were so quiet that even the beating of his heart could be heard clearly.

It was vaguely still when he woke up from the nightmare in Yangzhou Zailai Town, and saw that elegant-looking man, dressed in plain clothes, but with gold and iron horses in his eyes, bloody and weathered.

There was still the holy medicine of the Five Immortals Sect that Song Ziyu had given him in his chest, and right now, this was the only thing on him that had something to do with Liao Yungui.

"Heh..." Ye Youqi smiled bitterly, "Master, will you give up on me...?"

"Master Ye, what if Mr. Ye..." Shen Yun and his party rode back to the Valley of the Evil, and the guards around him couldn't help but say, "What if he just left..."

"Don't worry, he will definitely come within three days." Shen Yun said confidently, "You did a good job spreading the news last time. This time there is another matter. You also try to spread it to the world."

"Subordinates take orders."

"Let's just say that Yingye of the Evil Man's Valley will enter the valley for a certain period of time, and he will be honored as the owner of the young valley. He will marry the Mingjiao saint Lu Yu soon." Shen Yun tugged at the horsewhip, "The things he is reluctant to let go, let me Give him a hand and throw it all away."

"Yes!"

The guards led away, Shen Yun sent everyone away, got off his horse and slowly walked up the plank road of Gaefengji, with the turbulent wind blowing in his ears, cutting across his cheeks like a blade, very similar to how he rode a horse with a gun in the early years , the feeling of fighting in the bitter cold frontier.

It's a pity that the country he guarded with his life abandoned him at a critical moment.

"A Ci, I will give all the best I have to your child." Shen Yun said softly to herself, "I was really jealous that Feng Jun could be liked by you...but now that I think about it, if it weren't for her , now I don't even have the chance to see you through your son."

"You don't understand anything, and you still think I hate you."

"But me who dare not say anything, and you who don't understand anything... I don't know who is stupid..."

On the way north, Liao Yungui was so silent that Song Ziyu always had the illusion that he was traveling alone.

He was also taciturn in the past, but at least he won't lose his soul like he is now. Song Ziyu hasn't even seen him practicing swords for several days, but the evil sword is in the scabbard, as if it was deliberately forgotten by the master. .

Song Ziyu wanted to persuade him again, but he felt that he had nowhere to start.

Even the little leopard that Ye Youyou raised was listless, as if he knew that his master was gone, and slept sleepily beside Liao Yungui all day long.

It wasn't until they entered Chang'an that Liao Yungui finally said, "I'll go back to Chunyang Palace first, Ayao... just ask you to take care of me for a while."

"...That's fine." Song Ziyu pulled the rein helplessly, "I'll see you off."

The small courtyard by the Luoxing Lake in Wanhua Valley is full of memories related to Ye Youqi, Song Ziyu really doesn't want Liao Yungui to go to see things and think about people, of course it is best to go back to Chunyang.

It's just that Song Ziyu really can't expect whether Liao Yungui's highly respected master will be able to untie his apprentice's emotional knots smoothly.

But, after all, he himself has no better way. He can heal the sick and wounded, but he can't heal the hearts of the people, so he can only watch his friend climb the mountain ladder of Chunyang Palace slowly, and finally disappear.

Covered by clouds and mist on Mount Hua, it's close to immortality, but it still can't cut off love and love, and is cold-hearted to the end.

Song Ziyu sighed, and turned around with the little black panther towards Wanhua Valley.

In the past, every time Liao Yungui went back to the mountain, young disciples would flock to him, hoping to see the real face of the famous "Quexie Sword".Moreover, although Liao Yungui was used to being indifferent, he still patiently answered the questions of his juniors and younger sisters without being rude.

As a result, on this day, many disciples gathered around as before, only to find that the elder brother's face was as heavy as water, and he just walked into the residence of the new master Chen Qi without paying attention to anyone.

Chen Qi was studying, when his lover came back, before he had time to say hello, the other party knelt down with a "plop".

Chen Qi: "...what's the matter?"

"The disciple is useless, he is trapped by the demons in his heart, and his Dao heart is broken." Liao Yungui lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I also ask the master to make it perfect, and allow the disciple to go to the abyss of Mount Hua to re-understand Taixu's sword intent."

"What? You're going to the Huashan Abyss!?" Chen Qi was taken aback, "If you encounter a bottleneck, why can't you retreat? Why go to that place of near death?"

Liao Yungui remained silent, clenched his fingers tightly under the sleeves of his robe.

During Fang Yunfei's recuperating days, Liao Yungui realized that he seemed to be unable to use a sword anymore.

In other words, there is a sword shape, but no sword intent, and the moves are still smooth and smooth, but their power is greatly reduced.

He has never encountered such a situation since he learned swordsmanship by himself, and he is full of confusion at the moment.After thinking about it for a few days, he finally realized that it was about Ye Youqi's incident that made him feel "cowardly".

Because he felt that he couldn't protect him, his hesitation and retreat made his sword intent stagnate... An unsteady mind makes it difficult to hold the sword. He was trapped in his own body and couldn't extricate himself, and he couldn't even find half of the feeling of holding a sword to fight before.

Whenever he grasped the sword, it was like going back to the day when he was surrounded by Qi Yun. Thousands of cavalry and mighty lords in front of him were so overwhelming that he couldn't even lift his hands.No matter how much he wants to properly protect his apprentice behind him, no matter how prepared he is to die together, in the end...it is still futile.

So the inner demon suddenly arose, and Ye Youqi's words "Since you are in a confrontation, why don't you break it early" repeatedly sounded in your mind, as if mocking his powerlessness all the time.

If he can't even hold the sword, why should he come back in time?

"I beg you to be perfect, Master." The young man in plain white Taoist robes lowered his eyebrows, but his tone was irrevocable, "I will not die there because I want to live for the Sword of Enlightenment."

"..." Chen Qi was shocked by his appearance, and said helplessly, "Go back and rest first, let me discuss this matter with your Uncle Mei."

Liao Yungui saluted, turned around and left.

Chen Qi stared at the big apprentice's back, endured it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

After so many years, when encountering difficulties, he still thinks about how to force himself to bear it. Why doesn't he understand...why doesn't he know how to give in at all?

This kind of character, who would rather die than give up, has really entered the bottom of Huashan, can he come out alive?

Since the establishment of the Chunyang religion, how many young disciples have been there, and some of them are top talents, how regrettable?Otherwise, that place would not be listed as a forbidden area, and it cannot be entered without the warrant of the head.

"Come here." Chen Qi stood up, "Really please come here."

"Yes."

"I said, what's the matter with the Shaogu master?" Yang Yi squatted on the roof, looked at Pei Qing who was standing on the side playing with a dagger, "The valley master went out for a while, and when he came back, he announced that the Shaogu master was here." ? The long-lost father and son recognize each other?"

"Not interested." Pei Qing lacked interest, "There is one more person in this valley and one less person, it really has nothing to do with me."

Yang Yi asked curiously, "Then what are you interested in?"

"Kill someone." Pei Qing put the dagger on her palm and smiled, "Or if you meet someone you like, you can be killed by him."

One day if he wants to die, it is best to die under the sword of Quexie, in the sight of Liao Yungui's quiet Ruoxue Ye, let his own blood stain the other side's skirt, burn into blooming flowers, and burn into his heart.

In this way, I am not in vain, chasing the years of light and heat like a moth.

"...you actually like others?" Yang Yi looked at Pei Qing in disbelief, "Really?"

"Yes, or not, what's the difference?" Pei Qing didn't want to talk any more, put on her mask, got up and left.There was only a sighing sentence left in the wind: "It won't be mine anyway."

"Hey! Don't go!" Yang Yi said anxiously, "I'm going south to Hidden Sword Villa tomorrow, lend me your mask!?"
