Chapter 173: Death Point
Yun Xiao walked in front on tiptoe, and Xiao Qianye followed behind with his sword in hand. He secretly calculated the time it would take to complete this road in his heart. The closer he got to the end, the heavier the weight in his heart became.
Yun Xiao quietly turned around to look at him, and saw that his expression was tense and he kept his head down without knowing what he was thinking, so he simply stopped.
Xiao Qianye didn't notice that the person in front of him suddenly stopped, and he bumped into him head on. Then he raised his eyes in surprise.
Their eyes met, Yun Xiao rubbed his painful forehead, looked at him intently, took a step back, put his hands behind his back, tilted his head and smiled: "After reaching the end, where do you want to go? You
You don’t just want to take me here for a walk, do you? Are you ready to say goodbye without saying goodbye, or do you know how to say goodbye to them? "
"Farewell to them will only add to the trouble." Xiao Qianye pressed her eyes and retorted.
"You are the only one who finds it troublesome." Yun Xiao was merciless and directly exposed his little thoughts. Xiao Qianye looked into the distance, then silently turned around and stared at the road he passed, with a hint of gloom on his face.
He said lowly: "After leaving Tianyu City this time, I don't know when I will be able to come back. Maybe...it's not certain that I will never come back."
"Can you never come back..." Yun Xiao repeated absently, closing her eyes, and the scene when he left eight years ago suddenly appeared in her mind.
At that time, Xiao Qianye changed into the white robe of a Kunlun disciple, combed her hair neatly, and without any luggage, she just carried the Li Kong Sword and hurriedly went to bid farewell to her master. After learning the news, she chased him to the mountain gate and saw
Seeing the stoicism and determination on the other person's face that she had never seen before, she forced her to swallow back all the words of reluctance. She could only watch the figure getting further and further away, and finally disappeared into the clouds and mist.
From that day on, I knew clearly that this person would never come back.
Today, the look on his face is even more lonely than eight years ago, as if he already knows his future, but is so decadent that he doesn't want to resist any more.
She didn't know where Xiao Qianye's helplessness came from. Ever since he returned from heaven, he had been shrouded in this gloom all the time.
Xiao Qianye looked down at his feet and paused for a moment: "Ah Xiao, once you take this step, you can't look back."
Yun Xiao sighed, but slowly loosened her clenched fists, and stepped forward to hold his hand: "I will come back, because... you haven't married me yet!"
Xiao Qianye was startled. The woman in front of her kicked her toes, smiled softly, and suddenly a strange concern appeared on her face. She muttered to herself: "My parents' orders, my matchmaker's words, Xiao Yibai is your brother.
My brother is like my father, you have to get his permission before you can marry me! So you have to come back to see him sooner or later, right?"
Knowing that she was just talking nonsense to comfort herself, Xiao Qianye felt relieved. Yun Xiao smiled and continued: "So, you have to go back to Kunlun with me. If my mother doesn't agree, then I
I can’t marry you yet!”
This sentence really stunned him. Xiao Qianye couldn't help but lift his chin and think seriously. Seeing his serious face, Yun Xiao quickly rushed over and waved his hand: "Although you never go back to take a look after you leave.
, but my mother, my mother is not angry, she will definitely agree, don’t worry!"
"Parents' orders..." Xiao Qianye thought about what she just said, turned his eyes to the sky, and blurted out, "Feng Jiuqing seems to disagree..."
"Ah?" Yun Xiao tried hard in excitement, blushed, and stamped her feet, "You said he...he, he doesn't count!"
"Why not? He is indeed your biological father." Xiao Qianye answered reluctantly and reminded seriously, "He said, let me stay away from you, and someone with sense should send you back to Kunlun. If
If you want to kill your parents, Feng Jiuqing will definitely not be able to pass this test."
"You, you..." Yun Xiao was speechless for a moment. She didn't expect that she just said something casually to cheer him up, but he actually took him seriously. Thinking of his emotionless father whose whereabouts were a mystery, Yun Xiao felt aggrieved.
She pursed her lips, threw away his hand angrily, and cursed, "You are just a blockhead, why don't you find Mingxi to marry you again, what kind of royal princess, royal princess, noble lady, etc."
They are all better than me."
"A Xiao...A Xiao!" Xiao Qianye looked at her in embarrassment as she threw away her sleeves and ran away. She called her for a long time but got no response. He didn't know what his words had offended her, so he had to follow her in a hurry.
Yun Xiao felt as if she had knocked over the five-flavor bottle. The expression on her face could not help but stiffen a bit, and fear arose spontaneously.
"Hey, wait for me." After finally catching up with her, Xiao Qianye hurriedly grabbed her hand, "That's not what I meant. If you don't want Feng Jiuqing to intervene, we just don't ask for his opinion...
…”
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Qianye was suddenly stunned and found that there were tears in Yun Xiao's eyes and she had been avoiding his sight.
"What's wrong?" He lowered his tone and forced her to look directly at him. Yun Xiao subconsciously wanted to break away, but found that his hand was extremely strong and she could not resist at all.
Xiao Qianye had actually guessed what she was thinking. He just smiled slightly and pinched Yun Xiao's cheek: "Are you worried that you are a mixed-blood Spirit Phoenix tribe and will be killed by the breath of your own Spirit Phoenix?"
"No second piece of Shen Yue can save me." Yun Xiao took a breath, with a lot of thoughts at the moment, and her eyes were full of worry, "You have seen the feathers on my body. It won't be long before they will be all over my body. When that happens,
When the time comes, I will burn them to death.”
She paused for a moment, looked up at Xiao Qianye, then looked away as if she was electrocuted, and lost her voice: "I am already in this state. Even if I can delay it for a few more years, it is better than not letting my child suffer any more.
It's the same pain, so, I shouldn't fantasize about being your wife at all."
"No." Xiao Qianye replied decisively, "I won't let that happen."
"You have no choice!" Yun Xiao spoke aggrievedly, suppressing the fear and unwillingness in his chest, and said in a low voice, "Since the Lingfeng tribe got the divine bird fire, there has been no precedent for a hybrid to survive. I just borrowed the help of the royal family.
That piece of ancient jade that contains the power of the Moon God is lucky enough to survive until now. You can't marry me, you can't marry a woman who will die soon..."
Xiao Qianye held her tightly to prevent the person who had lost control of her emotions from breaking away from her arms. She gritted her teeth secretly. Since he and Yun Xiao met, no matter what kind of dangerous situation she encountered, she could always
She smiled calmly, as if all difficulties would be solved in such a leisurely manner. Only this time, when faced with her fate of dying young, this always optimistic little junior sister burst out with unconcealable anger for the first time.
pain.
Xiao Qianye hammered himself in annoyance. He had never realized that Yun Xiao would always be behind him and try his best to help him. But even though she had the blood of an ancient divine bird, she was actually just an ordinary person who would have her own problems.
Emotions include fear, nervousness, and helpless crying.
"I will definitely save you, and please believe me." For a long time, Xiao Qianye held her shoulders heavily, his eyes as sharp as an unsheathed sword, and said word by word, "You won't die.
Yes, you can live for a long, long time, like your fellow racers, or even longer than them!"
Yun Xiao couldn't help but tremble slightly. Although she couldn't understand every word he said, she believed it without any doubt.
Xiao Qianye raised his hand and put it on his chest in despair. At the same time as he said those words, he felt an inexplicable emotion welling up in his chest, which made his mind go blank and he became slightly absent-minded.
That was the deal between him and Di Zhong. Even if he would lose his freedom forever, he would definitely rescue Yun Xiao!
Yun Xiao raised her hand and touched his forehead, and found that the other person's body was radiating a deep cold, just like when she was in the Immortal Python Clan Dungeon. This coldness seemed to penetrate into the bone marrow. She quickly changed the topic and said in a low voice
: "Okay, okay, I shouldn't have said those words and made you unhappy again. Don't think so much. Isn't this road going to take a long time? Let's go quickly without further delay."
Xiao Qianye nodded, but suddenly felt a little tired.
Yun Xiao's eyes lit up, and in a blink of an eye, she put away all her emotions, stretched out a finger and waved it in front of him: "Are you tired? That's not possible, you have to finish walking..."
Her voice was cut off, as if it was cut off by something. Xiao Qianye raised his head in surprise and saw that she was frozen like a statue. Her fingers were still in the air, but her eyes were blank and out of focus. She didn't know where she was looking.
at.
"Ah Xiao!" An uneasy premonition suddenly surged into his heart. Xiao Qianye did not even dare to touch the motionless woman in front of him. These few seconds seemed to him as long as a whole century had passed. Yun Xiao
The aura in his body was in chaos, and the blazing heat filling his body ignited with fire!
The surrounding illusions dissipated at the same time. The sunset that originally spread thousands of miles fell from the sky like a waterfall. The beacon of the dragon holding the candle was extinguished directly. Even the night pearls instantly lost their color. When the dazzling sunlight appeared above the head again,
Yun Xiao covered her mouth in shock and coughed out a mouthful of blood from her chest and lungs. The rich blood slipped down between her fingers and dripped directly onto her snowy white clothes.
Li Kongjian suddenly trembled, and the white soul attached to it was obviously scattered, and was then forcibly condensed by stronger willpower.
"Cough cough...cough cough..." Accompanied by the violent coughing sound, the surging blood could no longer be controlled. Yun Xiao tried her best to cheer up and raised the corner of her mouth helplessly. She wanted to speak, but was interrupted by an even stronger cough.
Covered it up.
Ever since he took action with A Zheng in Yi Le Pavilion, the spirit phoenix breath in his body has become several times stronger than before, like an arrow on a string, ready to explode at any time.
"Let's go!" Xiao Qianye didn't dare to delay at all. He leaned over and picked her up. He almost rushed to the Sword Spirit and returned to the inner city to find the Alchemy Palace. However, his thoughts were shaken at the same time, and another voice came directly into his mind.
"etc."
Xiao Qianye frowned, and the ice and fire texture belonging to Emperor Zhong appeared on his eyelids. The man used his hand to directly hold Yun Xiao's heart, carefully feeling the ups and downs of the fire.
"It's too late, the fire is about to break out." Di Zhong looked solemnly, his tone became very stern, and he seeped his divine power into Yun Xiao's body little by little, "No, it should have broken out earlier. It's too late, you
To take her to a human doctor now is to commit suicide."
Xiao Qianye felt that his mind went blank. He understood every word Di Zhong said, but together they were like some kind of weird spell, making his body stiff and unable to think.
"Hey, take her to heaven." Di Zhong was awake, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. However, the owner of this body was indifferent as if he had lost his soul. His eyes were wide open, and he didn't know what kind of nightmare he had fallen into.
, the whole body trembled.
"Hey!" Di Zhong called him again. After finding that the other party was still motionless, he could only sigh and take away his consciousness without hesitation!
