Brother, why is he like this?

In the middle of the night, there are no stars and no moon.

A mouse swished across the sewage-soaked ground, looking for food in its burrow.

There was some movement in the depths, and the mouse immediately raised its ears and remained motionless.Suddenly, there was a sound of iron chains, and the mouse disappeared in a fright.

The cave was dimly lit, and a figure could be vaguely seen lying on the ground, with a slight movement of the wrist, struggling to wake up.

This cave was originally the place where the erring disciples of the Ancient Mirror Sect were imprisoned, but it has not been used for a long time, it is dark and damp, full of cobwebs.Now that the demon-faced man who killed the elder was captured, before Ye Tan could ask him the information he wanted, the head of Gu Jing imprisoned him here first, sealed his cultivation base, and tied him with heavy chains.

What woke up the ghost-faced man was a burst of cold air.

The Yin Qi was like a living thing, flowing in all directions along the blood, making his limbs cold in an instant.

The ghost-masked man woke up suddenly. Even though there was no one in front of him, he still struggled and knelt down, the iron chains all over his body clanging:

"Greetings...greetings to the master."

An old voice sounded in his head: "Why haven't you captured Shen Lingyuan yet?"

A layer of cold sweat oozed from the ghost-masked man's forehead. He swallowed, and boldly said: "Master, there is a master of the Ancient Mirror Sect who is always by his side, and his subordinates... are not opponents."

The voice snorted coldly: "Trash! What kind of master can the little ancient mirror school have?"

The ghost-masked man kowtowed and said yes.

"Forget it, I will give you the cultivation base, and quickly capture Shen Lingyuan!"

Accompanied by these words, an unfamiliar air flow stirred in the ghost-masked man's dantian, and quickly flowed through the meridians of his body, causing his cultivation to rise sharply in a short period of time.

"Yes!" The ghost-masked man was overjoyed, "This subordinate will definitely capture Shen Lingyuan alive and present it to the master!"

Ye Tan's body remained in the Ancient Mirror Sect, and the other half of Yuanshen was still attached to Ji Shaoyan, just like countless nights in Cangxiao Peak, guarding the sleeping Shen Lingyuan from a distance and quietly.

In the past, he never thought more about it, thinking that life would continue like this forever.

Now he dare not think more.

In the five years when his senior brother lost his news, he wanted to smash the boundary wall that blocked him, uncover the heavenly way that brought down the thunder calamity, and destroy the entire Lingxu Continent in exchange for his senior brother.

But he ended up doing nothing.

Who's to blame, it's all because I'm too weak.

Nothing made him more hopeless than being "powerless."

Ye Tan could only humbly pray that if his senior brother could appear in front of him safely, he would be willing to give everything.

Now the senior brother really showed up, but he messed up everything.

He didn't even dare to show his face, so he could only look at his brother from a distance as someone else.

The night wind carried a trace of requiem incense, and gently brushed Ye Tan's face.He lowered his eyes to hide the sadness and loneliness in them.

However, why do people always come to disturb his solitude with his senior brother.

The ghost-masked man was not surprised when Ye Tan intercepted him.

He looked at the bamboo house not far ahead, felt the strange power surging in his body, and showed a bloodthirsty smile to Ye Tan:

"Your death has come."

The ghost-masked man's eyes turned red, and the lingering black air enveloped him, making him almost merged with the night.A mass of black mist that looked like substance gathered in his palm, and it struck Ye Tan as quickly as lightning.

Ye Tan was expressionless, turned his wrist, and swept his sword across, and the sharp sword energy immediately swept the ghost-masked man backwards and flew backwards.

"boom!"

The ghost-faced man made a deep hole on the ground, the vegetation was broken, and smoke and dust were everywhere.

He got up in disbelief, turned his head and spat out a mouthful of blood.I don't understand why I have been given cultivation by my master, why I still have no power to fight back like last night.

With his current cultivation base, he might have the power to fight against Jindan Late Stage. Could it be that this young man's cultivation base has reached Yuanying?

The ghost-faced man's ribs were broken, but the energy in his body made him feel no pain, and he was even a little excited.He felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling and burning, and he jumped up high, attacking Ye Tan.

The state of the ghost-masked man was obviously not right, Ye Tan frowned slightly, and cut off the right arm of the ghost-masked man with a sword.

A stream of blood spurted out, and the severed arm fell to the ground and rolled twice, covered in dust.The ghost-masked man didn't even hum, and rushed towards Ye Tan again.

Ye Tan was impatient, and with a flick of his wrist, the long sword shot out, nailing the ghost-masked man to a tree, and looked at him coldly.

The ghost-faced man was nailed to the tree, his feet were off the ground, his left arm was bent unnaturally, his right arm was cut off at the shoulder, bleeding all over his body, and he even tried to draw his sword.Ye Tan's strength was so strong that the sword had already pierced through the tree behind him. The harder he struggled, the more blood flowed.But the ghost-masked man didn't seem to care, his left hand was firmly grasping the hilt of the sword.As the sword was pulled out inch by inch, the broken bone of the left arm pierced through the flesh and stabbed out, almost severing the muscles.

Finally, when there was almost only a trace of flesh left on his left arm, the ghost-faced man drew his sword.He landed on the ground with a thud, propped himself up on the broken bone, and staggered towards Ye Tan step by step like a marionette.

Xu Shicai's fight was too loud, and the people of the Gu Jing faction were startled again. Even Shen Lingyuan was woken up, and they all rushed in this direction.

Ye Tan was disgusted in his heart, and with a flick of his hand, the fallen leaves on the ground spun and shot at the ghost-faced man. The sharp edge cut through his neck, and his head fell to the ground and rolled aside. The headless corpse took two steps forward before falling down. on the ground.

At this moment, Shen Lingyuan and people from the Gujing faction also arrived.

Unexpectedly, even so, the ghost-masked man is not dead yet, his head covered in blood and dust rolled twice on the ground, and suddenly turned towards Shen Lingyuan, staring at him firmly.

This scene was so weird that even monks who had seen ghosts and ghosts felt chills all over their bodies.

Shen Lingyuan, who was stared at fiercely, was even more heartbroken.

Not to mention, the head on the ground actually opened its mouth:

"Shen... Ling... Yuan... Shen Lingyuan, master, I will... use... the blood of the demon..."

Before he finished speaking, the light in his eyes gradually went out.

Shen Lingyuan took two steps back in horror.

Perhaps because of the incomplete throat, the voice of the head was very vague, but everyone in Gu Jing heard "Shen Lingyuan" and "Heavenly Demon Blood" and looked at him with complicated eyes.

"He is Shen Lingyuan!" "It's the demons! All demons should be killed!" "Heavenly demon blood!"

The noisy and chaotic voices reached Shen Lingyuan's ears. He forced himself to calm down and looked at Gu Jing's people.

Shen Lingyuan's appearance is no different from that of a human being, and he has not shown his cultivation, so the head of Gu Jing can't tell the difference.However, whether it is a demon or not can be known by looking at the meridians.

So he stretched out his hand to attack Shen Lingyuan's wrist involuntarily.

A hand suddenly stretched out, and someone dodged in front of Shen Lingyuan, intercepting the head of Gu Jing.

Ye Tan separated the hand of the master, with a gloomy face about to drip water:

"Who dares to touch him!"

The head of Gu Jing held his red arm and said angrily: "Ji Shaoyan! You are crazy!"

His answer was a shocking sword.

The sword energy swept out along the side of the head of the ancient mirror, destroying everything it passed, and breaking the vegetation. At the end, with a "boom", half of the buildings of the ancient mirror school collapsed under the destruction of the sword energy.

There was no sound for a while.

It wasn't until Ye Tan flew away with Shen Lingyuan that everyone came back to their senses.I saw the headmaster's saber was pulled out by Ye Tan at some point, and now it was stuck on the ground, trembling.

After a while, someone whispered:

"The master has taken his sword!"

"That Ji Shaoyan was so strong?!"

"Hey! The point is not the master's sword, is it? He almost split Mianshan in half!"

There are also disciples who don't have long eyes and ask the master: "Master, shall we chase after?"

The headmaster stared at his saber and his eyes twitched.He didn't know why Ji Shaoyan took the sword easily, and when he realized it, the sword energy had already formed.This time I lost face in front of my disciples, so I have to get it back no matter what, even if it's just a show.

So he gritted his teeth and said, "Chase!"

Ye Tan was full of anger at the beginning, and his speed was extremely fast, Liu Yun quickly passed by, and Lu Yi regressed rapidly under his feet.

It wasn't until Shen Lingyuan couldn't bear the strong wind and buried his head slightly in his arms that Ye Tan froze, only then did he realize how ambiguous and inappropriate the current posture between him and Shen Lingyuan was.The place where Shen Lingyuan's skin touched began to burn, making him feel uncomfortable.

Remembering that Shen Lingyuan has no cultivation base now, he silently propped up a layer of spiritual power cover to resist the strong wind, and the speed became slower and slower, and finally fell on a stone.

The stone is not big, and the surface is smooth and flat.Shen Lingyuan sat down expressionlessly, while Ye Tan stood stiffly aside, not knowing how to speak.

"Ye Tan." Shen Lingyuan said calmly.
