"I said...do you have to be so persistent?"
"You know what I want."
"I just let you off once, what's the big deal..."
"How dare you mention this!"
In the scene where two sword lights, one red and one black, are constantly intertwined, the conversation between Duan Qing and Xue Ling Huan Bing also slowly appears in the jingle sound caused by the successive collisions of each other's weapons, like The constant sound of metal collisions like a rain curtain was like the concert of war, gradually covering the top center of the Sky City Hall. Taking in the other black tides that were still flooding the city, Duan Qing, who had been parrying the sword energy attacks like flying feathers in front of him, began to look more and more serious. He originally wanted to temporarily distance himself. However, the thought slowly disappeared step by step under the opponent's renewed attack and oppression: "Don't think that you can escape from my grasp by escaping here, you complete liar!"
"When did I lie to you?"
Raising his hand to block the fine sword light composed of the last black energy from his face, Duan Qing replied in a low voice: "Being late does not mean absence, it is just to let it go for the time being..."
"You're still lying!" He was answered by another sword energy that suddenly appeared in front of him: "You have no intention of dueling with me at all!"
"...You have seen this." Duan Qing took two steps back again and lowered his head slightly: "How did you..."
"You've been perfunctory with me, haven't you?"
Two star-like sword energies crossed and fell in front of Duan Qing, interrupting his words and the look of astonishment that had just appeared on his face: "Since the two of us met, you have been in my heart. Is it right to perform in front of me?"
"……ah?"
"You already know my identity, right?"
The intersecting starlight struck two brilliant sparks on Duan Qing's bloody sword blade, and at the same time, the silver face of the woman who suddenly pulled closer was clearly revealed: "Since you and I met because of that game cabin incident After that, you already understood my identity in your heart. As a result, you not only pretended to be stupid until today, but you also hid all the truth from me..."
"Did I say something wrong?" The sound of clenching silver teeth gradually became clearer in Duan Qing's ears, and the squeaking sound of bones made when Xueling Huanbing pressed hard again became harsh. Many: "Duan Tianfeng!"
"..."
"Even though I pressed you to that extent in those days, you still didn't admit it."
The brilliant sword light was generated by the metal friction between the two long swords at the intersection between the two people. At the same time, Duan Qing's blood sword, which had become a little weaker due to his mental wavering, flew away again: " Because if you admit it, many of your flaws will be exposed to the broad daylight!"
"...Oh? Then tell me, what other flaws do I have?"
"You have been refusing to reveal your identity so that you can get closer to me by changing your appearance."
The tip of his toes gently touched the edge of the hole at the top of the hall. Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was holding a sword in one hand, looked down at Duan Qing's face who was sitting on the ground with a condescending look: "You lost your family three years ago. and status, and was dormant in Cerulean City, in order to one day make a comeback and regain everything he had lost! Later, you accidentally met your fiancée in name three years ago again, and you felt that you had finally found the reason for your comeback. Opportunities, so you remain anonymous on the surface, but secretly use all kinds of despicable and dirty methods to quickly close the relationship with me..."
"Stop, stop, stop, stop!"
With one sword, he pushed all the attacks coming from the opponent out of his face. Duan Qing interrupted the opponent hastily: "Who told you this? Or did you just imagine it yourself? "
"Then why have you been reluctant to tell me the truth?"
Cold eyes once again seeped out from Xueling Huanbing's eyes, and at the same time, black ice crystals condensed around her body. The white armor that originally covered her body was also entangled with the black mist. It turned into darkness like an abyss of void: "Why...are you still unwilling to teach me the true power?"
"Real... power?"
"Whatever Sword Sect and Qi Sect... they are all used to deceive!"
As if echoing the strange aura gradually rising from the snow spirit phantom ice, traces of black energy also emitted from the black beasts surrounding the square like an ocean: "You have no intention of teaching me your true skills. , because you were afraid that I would no longer listen to you after learning the truth! And when you found out that everything about yourself was about to be exposed, you directly chose to retreat, even leaving your own home to leave my side!"
"Hey, what are you talking about?" Duan Qing, who was floating on the edge of the rising black energy that was gradually gathering, finally noticed something was wrong and frowned: "It can't be because of some strange things. Are you mentally disturbed because of your strength?"
“I’ve learned something since I entered the professional world.”
Spontaneously absorbing the black energy threads from all around, Xueling Huanbing's chest gradually began to shine with an unconcealable dark green light: "Nothing can guarantee that you will get everything, except... pure power!"
"Only pure power can allow me to get everything I want! Only pure power...can allow me to regain control of my family!"
The endless sword energy continued to spread outward like a whip shadow, gradually covering up the sun-filled sky. It turned into a black stream of raindrops and then fell hard around the area where Duan Qing was, mercilessly destroying the people there. All the bricks and rubble pierced into the sky and turned into powder. Standing calmly in the black rain curtain, Duan Qing, whose body became like mist, sighed and looked at the position of the woman who had become the center of the void breath. His slow moving steps followed by the falling downwards. Together with the ceiling, they were falling in the direction of the herd of black beasts that began to pour into the hall's front hall: "It's probably because the stone burned out my brain... that's fine."
"They all have to be saved anyway. Even if I die... I can't die in your hands."
In the scene where the blood-red sword light continued to extend outwards, Duan Qing, who stepped into the entrance of the bifurcated passage, slashed in front of the dimensional beast closest to him with his sword. The powerful and extremely offensive blood-red sword light followed. It cut through the legendary extremely hard skin surface of those deformed black beasts, and splashed black blood into the air in front of the passage. Duan Qing, who had not stopped moving, then opened his arm to raise the blade of the sword, and used the black trajectory drawn out to absorb all the black blood that had not yet reached the ground to the surface of Luoyang, and then the blade in his hand turned pitch black. In a few minutes, a sharper arc of light was slashed out again: "Drink!"
"Arc...two consecutive slashes!"
The circular arc light slashed towards the passage ahead with Duan Qing's shout, and then became stronger in the second arc light that followed, cutting off several pieces in succession. The bloody arc of the black beast's body then quickly broke through the scope of the passage under Duan Qing's angry shout, and rushed out of the group of dimensional beasts that had just rushed in with a large black corpse cut in half and an endless bloody aura. That gate. The body paused slightly, Duan Qing, who was touching the ground with one foot, quickly turned around without stopping, and the blood-colored sword edge that was raised again absorbed more black blood, and then fell vertically towards him. He picked out the direction of the snow spirit's phantom ice: "The triple wave of overlapping shadows..."
"Three-headed dragon flash!"
The bright sword light covered up the blood red that was originally attached to the bloody long sword, and instantly separated three different sword shadows in the air, and then when it was about to come into contact with the sword of Snow Spirit Magic Ice falling from the sky. At the same time, the appropriate benefits converge on the same point. The resounding sound of gold and iron then spread to the surroundings of the passage along with the sight of the woman being blown away. The explosive force also shattered the bodies of other deformed black beasts that poured into the place again. It seemed that there was no Duan Qing, who was not affected at all, then raised his long sword, and then clasped his hands together: "Just now it was the skill and sword style that you called deception, and next..."
"This is a demonstration of Lijian style."
The air screamed like a gas explosion and then occupied every corner of the passage. As Duan Qing, holding the sword in both hands, suddenly jumped up, he quickly approached the woman who was knocked into the air. Next to it, the appropriate force then caused Duan Qing's body to fly parallel to the Snow Spirit Fantasy Ice that had just been chopped away. The same thing was the sword that Duan Qing then swung: "Gang Sword Style!"
"The Dragon King moves mountains and kills!"
The faint roar of the dragon god flew towards the sky with the appearance of this sword, and the scene of the snow spirit phantom ice being chopped away by the sword again rolling towards the horizon echoed in the sky. In the far side of the city, the surrounding black energy was blown away by the dragon-shaped sword phantom, and surged into the sky outside the square along the various entrances and exits of the hall. After coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who flew far away, finally stopped his fall when the emerald star on his chest lit up again. He was trembling due to the violent impact of the sword. His body then continued to sway with his wavering eyes, and finally stopped at the figure of Duan Qing who was gradually climbing up the sinkhole: "You——"
"Do you want to continue to prove it?" Duan Qing, who carried the sword, blew the long hair on his forehead: "Prove that it's not that what I said is false, but that you are just too stupid?"
"...Impossible, this is impossible."
His eyes gradually lost their sparkle, and the silver mask covering his face with Snow Spirit Magic Ice finally began to turn dark as a certain emotion collapsed: "I should have obtained the most powerful power! I just You are the most powerful person! There is no way I can lose to you, I-"
"There's no way I'm going to fail again!"
boom!
A darker color than the tall tower standing in the distance then covered Xue Ling Huan Bing's entire body. As the dark green gem on her chest shone brighter, it spread to her whole body. The black color that was originally scattered behind her However, the long hair began to gradually fade with the continuous surge of void energy, and finally turned into a snow-white color like winter ice and snow. The black flames that he had seen once in the Tower of Tyran then enveloped the woman's body, and with her screaming voice again, it came towards Duan Qing's position. He did not dare to be careless and then ran rampant again. After passing his bloody sword, the bloody sword shadows condensed in the sky appeared next to him: "Tianji Sword Technique..."
"Anshadra!"
The turbulent sword force appeared in the sky filled with clouds accompanied by countless qi machines, turning into dark energy and falling towards Duan Qing's bloody sword shadow. Duan Qing's eyes were serious as he stepped into the Nine Palaces. Then he turned back and directed the swords falling from the sky in front of the approaching Snow Spirit Fantasy Ice. It seemed that she had become extremely confident due to the presence of powerful power. Ignoring those dark auras, Xue Ling Huan Bing then rushed into the bloody sword array that Duan Qing had just set up, and the bone sword in her hand followed her. Guided by an angry roar, the pair of eyes covered with black aura fell on Duan Qing's body: "Go to hell!"
boom!
There was another strong trembling sound, and the sword that was deflected by Duan Qing's sword struck heavily on the top of the hall. The furious blow that was enough to crack mountains and rocks was also delayed by the pull of those strange sword energies. After half a minute, it finally burst out together with Duan Qing's dancing bloody sword shadow.
"Cough cough, cough cough..."
The bloody sword shadow around him shattered inch by inch, and Duan Qing, who was sent flying far away, looked at the main hall that should have existed where he was originally. He was dizzy for a long time before his eyes finally focused on the uninjured woman who was still floating in the same place. He moved his body and placed it on another figure rising again from the black beast herd in the distance: "It has withstood so many sword array attacks and a violent explosion without being damaged. It seems to have an inhuman hardness... Has she been transformed by you?"
"Transformation? How could I be so capable?"
Gradually flying to Xue Ling Huan Bing's side, Liangchen Meiyu with a smile on her face replied in a low voice: "I just borrowed some secrets from the free world to achieve a certain effect."
"...that emerald star." Looking at Xue Ling Huan Bing with her white hair floating in the distance, her head lowered like a wild beast, Duan Qing's voice also became deeper: "That body should no longer belong to her. , but the property of the Emerald Star, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's it!"
What answered him was not Liangchen Meiyu who was looking at each other with a smile, but the sudden triumphant laughter of the old man on the high tower far away: "The person in front of you is no longer an adventurer, but an adventurer who belongs to the world." A puppet of the Magical Empire.”
"A...tortured soul."
