Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 2497 True Appearance

Li Ji's hand holding the sword began to tremble violently, and his tall figure seemed to collapse in an instant.

Ying Baoyue stared at the back, feeling heartbroken.

"You should know that once you merge with the gods, you can no longer lie."

Yun Zhongjun looked at Li Ji happily, and even looked over Li Ji's shoulder and smiled at Ying Baoyue who was standing behind him.

Li Ji suddenly stopped trembling, looked up at him, and said, "Yes."

Ying Baoyue's heart trembled.

"I doubted her identity, thought about killing her, and couldn't control my desire to kill her."

“It’s all true.”

Li Ji looked at Yun Zhongjun quietly, "Are you satisfied with my answer?"

Yun Zhongjun narrowed his eyes, "Even if your memory is manipulated by someone, the murderous intent comes from your heart."

"Don't try to shirk it. You want to kill her."

"Even if it's true as you said, so what?" Li Ji said calmly, "I didn't kill her after all, but fell in love with her."

"I fell in love with the enemy in my memory."

Ying Baoyue was stunned.

Li Ji, who was in the illusion, was so frank that he was completely unlike his usual self.

Yun Zhongjun must have concealed her breath and deliberately wanted Li Ji to tell her the fact that he had wanted to kill her, but she didn't expect that Li Ji not only did not escape, but chose to face the matter head on.

"I once felt extremely painful and guilty about this matter, but fortunately, I fell in love with her."

Li Ji looked directly into the eyes of Yun Zhongjun's mask and said, "I fell in love with the same person twice."

"You don't know that it's the same person," Yun Zhongjun said expressionlessly, "You are really shameless to be able to say that you have fallen in love with someone else so nicely. Do you really think that after taking over someone else's body, they can still be considered the same person?"

"Li Zhao died eight years ago."

"Even if it's not the same person, so what?" Li Ji said calmly, "At least my feelings at the moment are real."

Just like he didn't know who he was, whether he was a human or the Azure Dragon God, Li Ji or Zhao Ji.

He no longer wanted to hesitate or struggle.

Be it falling in love with someone else, being unfaithful, or not being able to distinguish between love and hate, at this moment he just wants to face his own heart calmly.

Right or wrong, that's who he is.

No matter whether he is a man or a god, whether he is Li Zhao's A Ji or Zhao Huajun known by Ying Baoyue.

His heart never changed.

"If I break my oath and go to another world, I will apologize to her."

After saying this, Li Ji's eyes became clearer than ever before. He raised his sword and pointed it at Yun Zhongjun's heart. "No matter how much you incite, it will be useless because I have seen my heart clearly."

"what about you?"

Li Ji stared into Yun Zhongjun's eyes, "Can you see your own heart clearly?"

"Me?" Yun Zhongjun laughed, his laughter full of contempt, "I have been indifferent for many years."

"Really?" Li Ji also laughed, "How can a heartless person play with people's hearts?"

Li Ji's eyes turned cold, "Only those who have had their hearts cut out can understand how to destroy the hearts of others."

"Am I right, Yun Zhongjun?"

"No," Li Ji stared at the mask on Yun Zhongjun's face motionlessly, "What is your real name?"

"You are not from Xirong?"

The smile in Yun Zhongjun's eyes completely disappeared, "You are just a young boy, what do you know?"

"I've taken off my mask, and it's time for you to take it off too," Li Ji's eyes became sharp, and something fluttered under the skin on his back, and countless water droplets appeared around him in an instant, "Let me see your true face!" "You brat!"

  boom!

With a loud bang, the illusion around the two people shattered, the swords collided fiercely, countless air currents scattered, and the earth shook.

Ying Baoyue stumbled and fell backwards. Tengshe supported her from behind, "Baoyue, what happened?"

Ying Baoyue had no time to answer, her eyes were fixed on Li Ji and Yun Zhongjun who were once again engaged in a fierce battle.

The speed at which the two men drew their swords was so fast that even she, a Level 2 practitioner, could not see clearly. The sword lights, sword edges, water droplets, wind blades, and countless forces converged in mid-air, darkening the sky and the earth.

Even Suzaku and Tengshe could hardly handle such a battle. They held on tightly to the barrier that protected everyone and watched in shock as the two people fought in front of them.

"These two guys, are they both going to die?"

The last time I saw such a battle was when the Azure Dragon God and the White Dog God were tumbling among the mountains of the Xirong grassland.

At this time, Zhuque and Tengshe were thankful that Emperor Ying had used the power of gods to set up layers of formations for the Afang Palace. Otherwise, after such a fierce battle, this land would have long been turned into ruins.

The Zen temple people and the Qin army who were originally fighting fiercely in the square were now scattered by the violent impact of the battle. Not to mention fighting, they could only protect themselves in the panic, holding on to anything they could to avoid being blown away.

"Those two lunatics are trying to die together! If they keep fighting like this, everyone will..."

Tengshe grabbed Ying Baoyue's shoulders tightly and raised his head in the strong wind. He really didn't know what had provoked Yun Zhongjun and Li Ji. This fighting style was not a battle but a fight for life. These two people and the gods that parasitized on them wanted to fight to the death!

What good will come of a fight between gods? And what good will come of the human body caught in the middle?

Crazy, really crazy.

Tengshe was simply speechless, when a clear and sharp sound resounded throughout the platform.

Tengshe felt Ying Baoyue's shoulder tremble violently from the palm of his hand.

Could it be that the winner has been decided?

The storm gradually subsided.

Everyone widened their eyes.

Piece after piece of bronze fragments fell onto the bluestone slabs that were riddled with sword marks.

Ying Baoyue raised his head and stared at the scene in front of him.

Yun Zhongjun and Li Ji stood opposite each other, Yun Zhongjun with his hands hanging down, while Li Ji kept his sword raised.

The mask on Yun Zhongjun's face was broken.

Ying Baoyue's breath choked and his eyes involuntarily looked towards Yun Zhongjun's face.

Her heart skipped a beat.

Yun Zhongjun's true appearance was exposed to the world for the first time, but no one could see his face clearly.

The bronze mask fell off the man's cheeks piece by piece, revealing a disfigured face covered with sword marks and burns.

There was complete silence all around, and Li Ji was also stunned.

No one could describe the horror of this face, and no one could tell what this face really looked like.

Facing everyone's astonished eyes, the man with the shattered mask suddenly smiled.

"How's it going? Does it look good?"

Li Ji looked at this face, and his originally firm heart of Taoism was shaken for a moment. Yun Zhongjun keenly caught this gap, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and true energy rose from his palm.

However, at this moment, a scream suddenly came from the corner of the square under the platform.

"mother!"

  Ying Baoyue trembled all over, that was Gui Chen's voice!

She turned around suddenly and found that the carriage behind the Guijia Army had its roof overturned and fell to the ground. Gui Li was in a dishevel and was helping a woman out of the carriage.

When he saw the woman, Li Ji, who was about to resist Yun Zhongjun, discovered that the opponent's movements suddenly stopped.
