"Damn it, why is there a sword array in this cave?" It was Qiu Li's roar from the Tianshamen.

"Let's go, this sword formation must be used to deal with those beasts, somehow, it was touched!"

The black-clothed old man was also very unwilling. He briefly glanced at the goblin spirit flying to the depths, and followed Qiu Li out of the cave.

Qingjue was the last to leave.

"Uncle Master."

At this moment, two figures suddenly stood out from the choking dust, and a woman's soft voice reached his ears.

Qing Jue was startled, but turned around hastily, and found two people standing at a corner not far away.

"Jiangxue, is that you, child?" Qing Jue shouted hastily.

"Let's go, Lin Yan, with my uncle accompanying me, no one dares to make things difficult for you." Mei Jiangxue said to Lin Yan.

Just now, the two also felt the astonishing changes in the tunnel, and they knew that there might be something wrong with the sword in the cave, which caused the change, but what they didn't expect was that there was a sword array in the tunnel, and there was a Being triggered, if they don't show up and leave again, I'm afraid both of them will die here.

Fortunately, Mei Jiangxue found out that her senior uncle Qingjue was left behind, so she reassuredly showed up and prepared to go out with her uncle.

Lin Yan and Mei Jiangxue then stepped forward at the same time, facing Qing Jue who was 20 meters away.

However, sudden changes occurred in the corridor!

The stone wall hadn't collapsed, and the stones hadn't been blown away, but the terrifying sword aura came first. Before the two of them had walked five meters, the raging sword aura roared and swept over, trying to tear everything tangible!

"Run!"

Qing Jue shouted in front.

But the two clearly couldn't escape the unparalleled sword energy!

Seeing that both of them were about to be torn apart by the sword energy, Lin Yan suddenly stopped and shouted, "Miss Jiangxue, you go first!"

While speaking, Lin Yan waved a soft vitality with both hands, actually supporting Mei Jiangxue to accelerate towards Qing Jue who was rushing over.

"Lin Yan! You..."

Mei Jiangxue turned her head to look at Lin Yan, tears welled up in her eyes, she had no idea that Lin Yan would do this, but after her hand was grabbed by Master Qing Jue, she was quickly taken away, and she only had time to take a hasty look!

Mei Jiangxue saw a peaceful face through the dust in the sky, and she thought that she would never forget this face and its owner.

"Hoohoo!"

The fierce sword energy in the howling wind quickly swept everything in the corridor, and Lin Yan's figure could no longer be seen!

Lin Yan knew that when he was threatened by the sword qi, if he ran desperately, he would definitely be killed by the sword qi. Instead of both of them losing their lives, he might as well use his own life to do something for Mei Jiangxue.

Seeing Mei Jiangxue being dragged by Qing Jue to quickly exit the corridor, Lin Yan knew that his life had been exchanged for Mei Jiangxue's safety, and he was very pleased about this.

Although he doesn't want to die, he still misses this world very much. He wants to go back to Tiandi City to find out the truth about the bloody night ten years ago, seek justice from the Lin family, and find his missing mother. Once it happened, he would push Mei Jiangxue out of the tunnel without hesitation.

This choice has nothing to do with the love between men and women, the brilliance of humanity, or moral quality, but only out of his awe of life.

When he was tied to a wooden raft and pushed into the water, fell into the waterfall and was smashed to pieces, he desperately wanted to live and was unwilling to die. When he survived luckily and released the vitality absorption lock array in his body by chance, he regained his life. As a newborn, he cherishes and respects life even more.

Because of reverence, I hope that life will continue.

Since he must die, he might as well exchange his life for Mei Jiangxue's chance of surviving, it's as simple as that.

The scene of pestering my mother to buy candied haws in Tiandi City, the scene of laboriously chopping firewood in Xiafu, and the appearance of eating snake meat with gusto in the cave, are like a picture scroll spread out like a scroll. Satisfied memories were displayed in front of Lin Yan one by one. When surrounded by sword energy, Lin Yan's heart was very peaceful.

"boom!"

The last section of the corridor completely collapsed as the stones of Niutou Mountain were blown away. The green forest in the past has become a mess now. The smoke of sorrow blurs everyone's vision and isolates the real world.

In Mei Jiangxue's eyes, tears welled up, and the teardrops were crystal clear. She failed to see the miracle she prayed for, and at the last moment before the tunnel collapsed, she failed to see the man who was so different from others come out.

However, that calm and clean face was firmly engraved in the mind of this 17-year-old proud girl.

"Master, I'm going back first."

Seeing Uncle Qingjue and several other sects still guarding in front of the ruined Niutou Mountain, with their eyes open as much as possible, as if they could see clearly the scene inside through thick dust, Mei Jiangxue knew that including her What the masters, including the uncle, were looking at, but she didn't even bother to contempt, she just felt that she was so tired at the moment, and wanted to go back to Qingwumen to have a good rest.

Qing Jue didn't see what the leader in his family was melancholy about, and while he was slandering who that young man was, a kind smile appeared on his face, he waved to the side, and said gently: "Jiang Xue, you After being trapped for so many days, I must be physically and mentally exhausted, I should go back early to rest and recuperate, Qingfeng, I won’t go back with your junior sister.”

Qingfeng is his son. He knew that his son liked Jiangxue, so he deliberately found such an opportunity. As for the young man who was willing to sacrifice his life for Jiangxue, he had already been turned into powder anyway and was crushed in the tunnel , no longer poses a threat to his son.

Qingfeng is two years older than Mei Jiangxue, so he is naturally a leading elite in Qingwumen.He is tall, with sword-like eyebrows and star-eyed eyes, and his whole body is full of vigor, like a sword shining with dazzling brilliance, which cannot be covered by any brilliance.

In fact, Qingfeng didn't even think about covering it up, he thought he had the capital to be proud.Indeed, as the third-ranked hero among the top ten young masters in Xiaoshui City, and as the young master of Qingwumen, it is normal for him to be high-minded and energetic.

However, when he heard his father Qingjue's words at this moment, Qingfeng, who was wearing a sapphire blue gown, didn't show off in the slightest. He quickly ran to Mei Jiangxue, smiling, and there was much joy in his soft eyes.

"Junior Sister, it's good that you're fine. Senior Brother, I've searched almost the entire Niutou Mountain for so many days. I thought Junior Sister, what happened to Junior Sister. I don't know how happy I am that Junior Sister is back safely. Junior Sister, you Are you tired, being trapped in the corridor for so many days must be very exhausting, I will accompany my junior sister back."

Qingfeng is really happy, because Mei Jiangxue appeared in front of him alive, he really likes and cares for his junior sister.

Mei Jiangxue returned to her cold temper, like a beauty carved out of ice, with no expression on her face, she just said indifferently: "Thank you for your concern, senior brother, I'm fine, I can go back by myself."

Then, Mei Jiangxue didn't care whether Qingfeng followed her or not, she greeted Qingjue, glanced at the corridor, and walked down the mountain.

Qingfeng, who has always been proud, did not show any dissatisfaction. He seemed to be used to the cold appearance of his junior sister, and he still accompanied Mei Jiangxue all the way down the mountain with a smile on his face.

This small episode did not attract the attention of others. In fact, these masters who were still on the mountain only cared about the spirit of the goblins.

"It's really unlucky to have an inexplicable sword formation destroyed, and I've been busy for more than 20 days." Qiu Li, who was five big and three thick, muttered angrily.

"Quack, the five sects of Xiaoshui City insist on suppressing me as an outside force, and they don't care who discovered the goblin qi. Well, it's good now, where the goblin qi has gone, and no one can get it." The old man in black sarcastically.

"Humph."

Qiu Li, head of the Tiansha sect, snorted heavily, thinking that saying anything else would be just verbal strife, so he didn't bother to lose his temper again.

Qing Jue remained silent, watching the gradually dissipating dust, waiting and hoping that the goblin spirit would appear in his field of vision again.

It wasn't until the dust cleared up and they saw the blurry scene of Niutou Mountain that everyone was sure that the corridor had been completely destroyed and the entrance of the cave had been blocked by stones, and then they began to leave angrily.

As for the spirit of the goblin, I can't get it.

It is rumored that the Goblin Qi has a certain amount of independent spiritual consciousness, and it will only appear in beautiful places with beautiful mountains and rivers. Now that Niutou Mountain is full of devastation, the Goblin Qi must have gone deep underground along the veins after escaping.

Time flies, and once time passes by, it will never come back.

It has been three days since Niutoushan was destroyed.

Xiaoshui City's sects, large and small, did not give up, and sent people to try to find the whereabouts of the goblin qi, but they found nothing, so they accepted the fact that the goblin qi escaped into the earth veins and disappeared.

The forces in the outer city also left Xiaoshui City at noon three days later.

It was also noon, somewhere in the forest.

The breeze is like a mischievous elf, constantly passing through the staggered branches and trunks, dancing happily.And the beams of sunlight at noon were also divided by the leaves, casting only mottled light and shadow on the ground.

This forest is so quiet that the crisp chirping of a few birds standing on the top of the tree to show off their singing voices makes the forest even more quiet and peaceful.

A young man was lying on his back under the soft golden leaves, as if the dazzling mottled light and shadow had no effect on him, his face was facing the sun like that, as if he was in a deep sleep.

It was a peaceful face, but it was not clean at the moment, it was covered with dust, just like the clothes on him.

Sometimes the wind elves would stop by his side curiously, gently blowing away some of the dust and blowing up the messy black hair, as if they wanted to wake up the man with closed eyes.

However, the wind elf did not wake up this person for several days, as if he was afraid that this person would be exposed to the sun during the day and be frozen at night, so the wind elf blew up the golden leaves on the ground, covering the person's body softly. Physically, it seemed that he had put on a piece of clothing kindly for him.

But at this moment, the young man's right hand suddenly moved, and then began to lift, subconsciously covering his eyes, and then propped his left hand on the ground, and slowly sat up.

The wind elf was startled, and quickly retreated to the treetops, but was still watching curiously.

After the young man sat up, he didn't look around immediately, but stretched comfortably, as if he hadn't gotten enough sleep after sleeping for several days.

The wind elf was no longer afraid, and circled around the young man mischievously before leaving happily and continuing to dance in the forest.

"What is this place?"

The young man stood up, patted his clothes casually, muttered something, then suddenly slapped himself on the head, and immediately stepped on the golden leaves and danced: "Haha, I didn't die, I survived, huh huh !"

The sound heard the ears of a few birds on the top of the tree, and it was like howling ghosts and howling wolves. They were so frightened that they fluttered their wings and flew away quickly.
