Bright Sword: This unit is really ruthless

"However, the path to becoming an immortal is full of hardships. Are you sure you want to take this path?" asked the old man from Tianshan.

"I'm sure!" Zhang Ling said firmly.

"Okay!" The old man from Tianshan nodded, "In that case, I will accept you as my disciple."

"Thank you, Master!" Zhang Ling knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the Tianshan old man.

"Get up." said the old man from Tianshan.

"Yes, Master." Zhang Ling stood up.

"From today on, you are my disciple." The old man from Tianshan said, "I will teach you everything I have learned in my life."

"Thank you, Master!" Zhang Ling said again.

"Okay, you can go down and rest first." The old man from Tianshan said, "Starting tomorrow, I will start teaching you the way to cultivate immortality."

"Yes, Master." Zhang Ling said, and then walked out of the thatched hut.

He went outside and took a deep breath.

He knew that his fate was about to change...

At the top of Tianshan Mountain, the cold wind is howling and the snow is white.

Zhang Ling stood in the snow, looking into the distance.

His heart was filled with hope and expectation...

He slowly took off the mask of the man in black, revealing a familiar face.

"Su...Su Yue?!" Zhang Ling looked at the person in front of him in disbelief.

A complicated look flashed across Su Yue's eyes, and then she returned to her indifference.

"Yes, it's me." Su Yue said coldly, "Zhang Ling, long time no see."

Zhang Ling was filled with shock and confusion. He could never have imagined that the man in black in front of him would be Su Yue.

"Why? Why are you doing this?" Zhang Ling asked.

Su Yue sneered and said, "Why? You ask me why? You killed my whole family, and you still ask me why?"

Zhang Ling was stunned. He had no idea what Su Yue was talking about.

"I killed your entire family? What are you talking about?" Zhang Ling asked.

Su Yue's eyes were filled with flames of hatred, and she said, "Zhang Ling, stop pretending! Back then, it was you who led the troops to attack our Su family and killed my parents and brothers! I will never forget this hatred!"

Zhang Ling's heart was shocked, and he finally understood why Su Yue did this.

It turned out that Su Yue had always hated him, hated him for wiping out the entire Su family.

"Yue'er, listen to my explanation..." Zhang Ling wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Su Yue.

"No need to explain! I don't want to hear any explanation from you!" Su Yue said coldly, "Today, I will kill you and avenge my family!"

After saying that, Su Yue raised the dagger again and stabbed Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling did not dodge and let the dagger pierce his chest.

"Pfft-"

Blood gushed out, staining Su Yue's clothes red.

Su Yue looked at Zhang Ling lying in a pool of blood, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

She didn't understand why Zhang Ling didn't hide?

Does he really not care about his own life?

Zhang Ling looked at Su Yue with tenderness in his eyes.

"Yue'er, I...I owe you..." Zhang Ling said with difficulty, "I...I am willing to repay you with my life..."

After saying this, Zhang Ling closed his eyes and left this world forever.

Su Yue looked at the dead Zhang Ling with mixed feelings.

She didn't know how she felt now.

Is it relief? Or pain?

She only knew that she could never forget Zhang Ling, the man who once loved her deeply but also destroyed her entire family.

Su Yue slowly stood up, turned around and left the room.

She didn't look back and didn't shed tears.

Because she knew that she had more important things to do.

She wants to find Zhang Ling's accomplices, kill them all, and avenge her family!

Su Yue left Sunset City and headed eastward.

She didn't know where she was going or what she was going to do.

She only knew that she wanted revenge and wanted to make those murderers who killed her family pay the price!

Along the way, Su Yue had to sleep in the open air and experienced many hardships.

But she never gave up and never backed down.

Because her heart was filled with the flame of hatred, and this flame supported her to keep moving forward.

A few months later, Su Yue came to a place called "Black Wind Village".

Black Wind Village, located in a desert, is a gathering place for a group of bandits.

Su Yue found out that the leader of this group of bandits was called "Black Wind Monster" and was a ruthless guy.

And this old monster Black Wind was one of the accomplices who attacked the Su family together with Zhang Ling back then.

Su Yue decided to sneak into the Black Wind Village, find the Black Wind Monster and kill him.

At night, Su Yue took advantage of the cover of darkness and sneaked into the Black Wind Village.

She carefully avoided the patrolling bandits and slowly approached the room of the Black Wind Monster.

Finally, she arrived at the door of the Black Wind Monster's room.

Su Yue took a deep breath and gently pushed open the door.

In the room, the old monster Black Wind was lying on the bed and snoring.

A cold light flashed in Su Yue's eyes, and she slowly pulled out the dagger.

She approached the bed step by step, holding the dagger high in her hand.

At this moment, the old monster Black Wind suddenly opened his eyes.

He looked at Su Yue who was standing beside the bed, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Who are you?" asked the Black Wind Monster.

Su Yue didn't say anything, just looked at him coldly.

The old monster Black Wind sat up from the bed, looking at the dagger in Su Yue's hand, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.

"What do you want to do?" asked the Black Wind Monster.

Su Yue sneered and said, "Kill you!"

After saying that, Su Yue stabbed the dagger in his hand fiercely at the Black Wind Monster...

Zhang Ling slowly took off the mask of the man in black, revealing a familiar face.

"It's you!" Zhang Ling's eyes were filled with shock and anger.

Under the mask was his sworn brother - Zhao Tian!

Zhao Tian, ​​his comrade-in-arms who had fought side by side with him against the invaders, has now become the one who wants to take his life.

"Why?" Zhang Ling's voice trembled with a hint of disbelief.

Zhao Tian sneered: "Why? You ask me why? Zhang Ling, you took away everything from me, I hate you!"

"I took away everything from you?" Zhang Ling was even more confused. "When did I take away everything from you?"

"Stop pretending!" Zhao Tian roared, "If it weren't for you, Su Yue would be mine! If it weren't for you, I would be a hero in the war of resistance! If it weren't for you, I would have my current status and honor!"

Only then did Zhang Ling understand that Zhao Tian had always been jealous of him, jealous of him having Su Yue's love, and jealous of everything he had.

"Zhao Tian, ​​you're crazy!" Zhang Ling said sadly, "Su Yue has never liked you. Everything you have is the result of your own hard work. What does it have to do with me?"

"No! It's all because of you!" Zhao Tian shouted hysterically, "You took away everything from me! I will kill you and take back everything that belongs to me!"

After saying that, Zhao Tian waved the dagger again and stabbed at Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling sighed helplessly. He knew that today, there was bound to be a life-and-death duel between him and Zhao Tian.

He no longer hesitated, drew out his dagger and rushed forward.

The two men fought fiercely in the room, with swords flashing and murderous intent.

Although Zhang Ling was seriously injured, his martial arts skills were better than Zhao Tian's.

After a few rounds, Zhao Tian was at a disadvantage.

"puff!"

Zhang Ling's dagger pierced Zhao Tian's chest.

Zhao Tian widened his eyes and looked at Zhang Ling in disbelief.

"why why......"

"Because you betrayed our brotherhood and betrayed our country!" Zhang Ling said coldly.

Zhao Tian fell to the ground weakly, and blood stained the ground red.

Zhang Ling looked at Zhao Tian's body, his heart filled with grief and helplessness.

He could never have imagined that his former brother would become like this.

He took a deep breath, dragged Zhao Tian's body under the bed and hid it.

He knew that he had to leave here as soon as possible.

Zhang Ling came to Su Yue's room and knocked on the door gently.

"Yue'er, it's me."

Su Yue opened the door and saw Zhang Ling covered in blood. She turned pale with fright.

"You...what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, just a minor injury." Zhang Ling said calmly, "Yue'er, we have to leave here immediately."

"What happened?" Su Yue asked anxiously.

Zhang Ling briefly told Su Yue what had just happened.

After Su Yue heard this, she was also shocked and unbelievable.

"how so......"

"Now is not the time to talk about this. We must leave here immediately." Zhang Ling urged.

The two packed their luggage and quietly left the inn.

Shortly after they left, a group of soldiers rushed into the inn.

"Search! Search carefully!"

The officers and soldiers turned the inn upside down but still could not find any trace of Zhang Ling and Su Yue.

......

Zhang Ling and Su Yue fled all the way to a remote mountain village.

They found a family in the village and settled down temporarily.

In order to avoid being discovered by the government, Zhang Ling and Su Yue changed their names and lived in hiding.

Zhang Ling used the alias "Li Shan" and Su Yue used the alias "Wang Mei".

The two lived a quiet life in a small mountain village, working from sunrise to sunset.

However, the peaceful life did not last long.

One night, Zhang Ling was sleeping when he suddenly heard a noise outside the door.

He woke up suddenly, got up, walked to the window and looked out.

They saw a group of soldiers surrounding their house.

"Oh no! I've been discovered!" Zhang Ling thought to himself.

He quickly woke up Su Yue, and they both quickly put on their clothes and prepared to escape.

However, as soon as they opened the door, they were surrounded by a group of officers and soldiers.

"Zhang Ling, you can't run away!" an officer shouted.

Zhang Ling looked at the officers and soldiers in front of him and knew that he had no way to escape this time.

He took a deep breath, protected Su Yue behind him, and stared coldly at the officers and soldiers in front of him.

"What do you want to do?"

"We have been ordered to arrest the imperial criminal, Zhang Ling!" the leader of the soldiers said, "If you are smart, surrender and avoid being tortured!"

Zhang Ling sneered: "You guys are just a bunch of idiots, and you think you can catch me? You're dreaming!"

After saying that, Zhang Ling punched the officers and soldiers...

"Do you think I've been blinded by hatred? Are you kidding me with the last seed of our 772nd Regiment?" Zhang Ling spat, and the thick smell of cigarettes filled the trench. "I'm smarter than you!"

Xu Erniu scratched his head and chuckled: "Captain, I knew you knew what was going on. I'm just... just a little worried."
