call!
call!
Xiang An was breathing heavily.
At this moment, waves of severe pain shot through his limbs.
He tried hard to stand up, but every time he tried, he stopped because of the heartbreaking pain.
After falling to the ground in embarrassment again, Xiang An finally realized that his current body seemed to be unable to support him in doing what he had done so easily in the past.
He stooped and endured the severe pain in his body, and at this moment, the conversation between Chu Qingxiao and the two women came to his ears.
They discussed his life and death in extremely relaxed tones.
It was as if he was just an ant being slaughtered.
He doesn't like this feeling.
Twelve years ago, he had truly experienced such a thing.
He has always been a very smart guy.
After leaving Wuling City, I followed the elder from Tianxuan Mountain all the way to Tianxuan Mountain.
He was anxious.
He wanted to convey everything that happened in Wuling City to the court through Tianxuan Mountain as soon as possible.
This is related to the life and death of thousands of households in Wuling City and the thousands of Xizhou Sword Armors who fought bloody battles for Wuling City.
He didn't dare to delay even a little bit.
But the elders who protected and escorted them acted extremely calmly, stopping and stopping along the way.
Even when passing through a small town in Cangzhou, he drank too much and was delayed in a restaurant for a whole day.
At that time, like Rui Xiaozhu and others, he was anxious and urged the elder several times.
But the old man who had a pleasant appearance in Wuling City seemed to be a different person at that time, and he looked at their urgings with cold eyes.
As the oldest of the four people in the group, Xiang An, who was also good at boxing, stepped forward and argued with the elder.
He cited scriptures and stated the pros and cons.
He believed that his words were impeccable both morally and legally.
But after hearing what he said, the elder slapped him hard in front of everyone.
Then he ordered his disciples to break Xiang An's feet on the grounds that he did not respect his master. They also took away the horses he used for the journey, leaving him lame, and followed the large army all the way to Tianxuan Mountain.
During this process, the other people interceded for him more than once, but to no avail.
At that time, they were all just insignificant people. Only Zhao Nianshuang received some preferential treatment, but only a little.
He always believed that as long as he reached Tianxuan Mountain, he could convey everything that happened in Wuling City to the court and save everyone, so he endured the pain.
After arriving at Tianxuan Mountain, they were selected by elders of various statuses like goods. Xiang An was spotted by Ganquan Peak and entered the divine peak.
But he still did not give up the idea of saving Wuling City.
At that time, his master was still Zhou Sheng, but like most new disciples, he was assigned an instructor who would teach him the way to practice. This was also the most authoritative person Xiang An could come into contact with at that time. man of.
Every time Xiang An had the opportunity, he wanted him to pass the news about Wuling City to the top officials, and then convey it to the court to send reinforcements in time.
This instructor was much easier to talk to than the previous elder. He agreed to Xiang An's matter and asked him to write the news he wanted to convey in a letter and pass it on to him. Xiang An was grateful to him and expressed his heartfelt thanks in the letter. The tragic situation of Wuling City was handed over to him respectfully.
I handed it in, but there was no response.
Xiang An asked about the reason, and he only said that the imperial court was currently struggling to deal with various rebels. There were no less than a hundred letters asking for help from various places in Daxia every day, and the letter asking for help from Wuling City was very likely to be ignored.
So from then on, Xiang An had to write a request for help every three to five days and trust the other party to pass it on to the top management of Tianxuan Mountain.
The instructor never refused anyone who came, and every time he said he would do his best, but he just needed some money to open the way for the person who took over to be more attentive.
Xiang An believed his words so much that he not only saved money from his monthly salary, but also gave all the money he used to bring Da Dian from Wuling City to the teacher.
Two months passed like this, and there was still no reply from the court, and Xiang An had already sent thousands of taels of information to the other party.
The young man who was ignorant of the world just thought that the court was stupid and never doubted the teacher who had always been kind to him.
Until one day, he helped carry some swords to the other party's house, and listened to him bragging to his friends outside the house about how he defrauded Xiang An of money and then burned all the letters.
Xiang An was furious.
He opened the door and questioned the other party, but the other party always looked at him with contempt.
Xiang An finally couldn't hold it anymore and started fighting with the opponent.
But Xiang An, who had only been practicing for a few months, was no match for the instructor. He was beaten black and blue, and then the instructor took advantage of his position to make things difficult for him.
The students under his command also humiliated Xiang An in various ways in order to please him.
Especially one night, after the elixir was stolen from the mountain, the teacher and his students insisted that it was Xiang An.
Everyone punched and kicked Xiang An. Finally, the instructor stepped on Xiang An's face and said to him something Xiang An will never forget in his life: "An ant cannot protect itself."
"But I want to save other ants!"
"When you take a pee, take a look at who you are first."
Then, he shouted at the students, took off his belt, and poured Xiang An's filth all over him.
After that day, Xiang An fell seriously ill.
Then, he received the news that Wuling City was destroyed and people died.
He locked himself in his room for a long time.
He suddenly understood the true meaning of this world.
He is an ant.
The people in Wuling City are also ants.
No one cares about the life or death of the ants.
I want to live, I want to get the morality in my heart.
Then you have to be the one who can crush the ants.
So since then.
He practiced hard and seized every opportunity he could to climb up.
He became Zhou Sheng's disciple, obtained two royal swords, and suddenly became a popular figure in Ganquan Peak.
Of course, he found the former teacher and killed him.
Use very cruel methods.
He cut off every piece of flesh from his body and watched him die in agony.
This incident quickly led to investigations by Ganquan Peak, but these investigations all ended without any resolution at a certain moment. Even if the instructor's family repeatedly asked for an explanation, they were suppressed by the mountain gate.
Xiang An knew that it was not because of how beautifully he did things, but because compared to him at that time, the dead teacher was an ant in everyone's eyes.
Xiang An, who tasted the taste of becoming a master, vowed to seize it all.
This is an old friend of Wuling City who paid for it with his own death.
But just when he thought everything would go on like this.
Chu Qingxiao appeared.
He broke Xiang An's dream.
He knew very well that everything he owned came from Tianxuan Mountain, but Chu Qingxiao tried to destroy Tianxuan Mountain.
After persuading him to no avail, he had to choose to use his own methods to let Chu Qingxiao understand the truth of the world.
But he was repeatedly frustrated, and in the end he ended up in ruins.
It was difficult for him to accept such a result.
He obviously worked so hard, but why in the end, he was still the same ant he was twelve years ago!
Thinking of this, Xiang An clenched his fists.
Ziyu in front also slowly walked towards him at this time.
He knew that the moment she came close, his death would come.
He felt unwilling and unfair.
He gave up so much to get all this, but why could Chu Qingxiao do better than him without giving anything! ?
"Because you are too soft-hearted."
But at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Xiang An's mind.
"Who are you?" Xiang An trembled and looked around in horror. Except for Ziyu, who was walking towards him step by step, there was no other figure around.
"I told you, if you want to save Ganquan Peak, you have to give your most important thing..." The voice sounded again.
"You are the ancestral spirit..." Xiang An suddenly realized that he had been summoned by the ancestral spirit before this. Because of this, he was able to take out the Shenquan Sword.
"But I have killed so many people, my friends, masters, and those who trust me..." Xiang An murmured.
"What I said is the most important thing." The voice in his mind said again.
"The most important thing..." Xiang An was stunned. He seemed to have thought of something, and then turned to look behind him.
There was a girl there, throwing herself on Zhou Sheng's body, crying so hard...
