Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

A lone passer-by is walking in a hurry, and the cool breeze blows through the bustling holy city!

On a long snowy street, at the east-west intersection, two people met unexpectedly, just like more than 20 years ago, you looked at me and I looked at you, but there was no longer surprise and excitement in our eyes, but instead a hint of forbearance and helplessness.

The man's wine jug was at his lips, unmoved; the woman's tears were at the corners of her eyes, but they did not flow. Both of them seemed to be deliberately restraining something, and both of them seemed to understand something.

The snow is falling and the wind is blowing!

After taking a sip of blood wine, the man turned around and walked the other way. Every step seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he drank a sip of blood wine with every step.

"stop!"

The woman shouted coldly, tears of blood fell, and her red hair fluttered!

The man stopped, his blood wine was going down his throat, tears were flowing from the corners of his eyes, also blood-colored!

"More than twenty years ago, you were accompanied by the Black Feather Arrows, but you still couldn't stop me. Today, you are alone, do you still want to stop me?"

"I, I just want to see you one more time. Promise me that next time we meet, don't make me wait for more than 20 years. If we meet again, I will still wander around the world with you, without any regrets!"

When the man heard this, the wine jug in his hand fell to the ground, and blood flowed out of it, his own blood. He wanted to turn around, but he just squatted down, picked up his wine jug, drank it in one gulp, and walked forward with his mouth full of blood.

"Aren't you going to ask something? The Ji family is hunting down Ouyang Jinyu!"

The woman looked at the receding figure with such despair. She did not chase him, she was roaring and shouting!

The man paused for a moment, then continued walking forward without any response!

"Ouyang Zhengxiong, Jinyu is your son. You can abandon me, but what about him? You've already abandoned him for more than 20 years. Do you want to abandon him again?"

"I'm sorry, your feelings are sincere, but you've got the wrong person. My name is Xue Ji, a wanderer who lives by drinking blood!"

Xue Ji's figure quickly disappeared in the falling snow at the end of the long street.

The woman was of course Gongsun Hongyan. The hand she stretched out showed how much she wanted to keep this man and how much she wanted the man's promise to see her again.

More than 20 years ago, Gongsun Hongyan followed Ouyang Zhengxiong without hesitation, but today, she can't. There is only one word in Xue Ji's eyes: death! But she can't die with him, because she has her son Ouyang Jinyu in her heart.

Gongsun Hongyan wiped away her tears and blood, and slowly turned around. She was finally going to go in the opposite direction of the man she loved deeply, but when she turned around, she saw a man at the end of another long street, a man with a long sword on his back, majestic but a little sad!

"You shouldn't have told him. You don't understand him. Jinyu is his son. He knew it a long time ago, but in his heart, Jinyu is not his son. He is the son of the Ouyang family!"

Gongsun Hongyan looked at the blurry person at the end of the long street, and her heart became even more complicated!

After more than twenty years of companionship, and more than twenty years of painful torture, she still couldn't understand this man's heart. The gentle and elegant head of the Ouyang family in the eyes of the world gave her the feeling of weakness, but the bloodthirsty and practicing head of the family Ouyang Zhengxiong gave her the feeling of being so firm. The love of head of the family Ouyang Zhengxiong was obsessive, but also crazy, no matter it was for Ouyang Zhiqing, Ouyang Jinyu, or even her!

Gongsun Hongyan didn't know when the head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, had her figure in his heart, but she was very sure that she must be in that complicated heart!

Regarding everything in Jianying City, perhaps everyone thinks that the head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, is fighting against the Ji family and defending the Ouyang family's foundation that has been established for hundreds of years, but Gongsun Hongyan feels that what the head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, wants to do is destruction!

The head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, is tired. Not only does he have to destroy the Ouyang family that he has fought for all his life, but he is also likely to destroy the love of his life, Ouyang Zhiqing, and of course, himself in the end!

"In his eyes, Jinyu is the son of the Ouyang family. What about you? Is that the case in your eyes as well?"

The head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, slowly turned around and left!

"In my eyes, Jinyu is your son. Take him away from this dangerous place, even if it means he has to go with Gongsun Hongrui!"

Looking at the increasingly blurred figure in the falling snow, Gongsun Hongyan's heart was broken. The head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, shattered her hatred with one sentence. Perhaps her hatred was illusory and non-existent. It was just her reason to live, and of course it was also the reason why she stayed with the head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong.

Gongsun Hongyan didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit that after knowing and accompanying each other for more than 20 years, the shadow of the head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, was also in her heart. If it weren't for the bloodthirsty sword, she believed that the head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, was a good person and a very good head of the family!

"Oh my God, whose fault is this?"

Gongsun Hongyan roared, and she disappeared in the snowy street.

After Xue Ji woke up, he kept asking this question, but he was not asking the heavens, but his own heart.

Is it really wrong to refuse to succumb to fate, refuse to compromise, and prefer to die in glory rather than live in disgrace?

In fact, Xue Ji and the head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, already knew the ending when they were practicing the bloodthirsty magic, but their hearts were different back then and now.

The passionate young man was bloodthirsty, but after being bloodthirsty, he lost his passion. Not only was the head of the family Ouyang Zhengxiong tired, but Xue Ji was also tired. He no longer had the competitive spirit of his youth.

The hearts of both brothers are heading towards death, which is why the head of the family, Ouyang Zhengxiong, rejected King Qin Xiao, and of course, why Xue Ji rejected Murong Lunbo.

Not long after Xue Ji left, his tears and blood hadn't dried yet when he felt a very familiar breath. He smiled bitterly and sighed softly:

"Hey, I owe you a favor, when can I ever repay you?"

Xue Ji flew up and headed west quickly, while using his bloodthirsty magic.

Xue Ji, covered in blood, saved a man - Murong Lunbo!

At the intersection of the long street, two people stood back to back, looking at the two leaf shadows vigilantly.

"I saved you again!"

"Really? Why do I feel like we're going to die here together?"

Xue Ji was drinking, and Murong Lunbo was licking the blood from the corner of his mouth.

After Murong Junbo came back from the underground dark city, he has been recuperating. He was seriously injured in the underground dark city, and the people from Kongxu Mansion were also seriously injured. However, the people from Kongxu Mansion should be nearby, but Murong Junbo did not send out a distress signal.

"People from the Blood Shadow Clan!"

"No, this aura is too evil!"

Two shimmering leaf shadows were communicating with each other, one blue and one purple, of course, they were the Tianyou leaf shadows!

"This is a supernatural thing. Why do they want to kill you?"

"You're kicking me when I'm down. I'm seriously injured!"

"Hmph, you shouldn't have come to Jianying City. Every time I meet you, you're unlucky!"

"I've also discovered that fate is unfair to us!"

Xue Ji and Murong Lunbo did not take the initiative to attack. They were not sure and did not know much about the supernatural.

This is not the fault of the two. Most of the supernatural beings in this world were destroyed in the battle between good and evil thousands of years ago. It seems to be the result of the battle between good and evil, but in fact most of the supernatural beings were destroyed by the Ji family and Xuantian Pavilion.

This is also the reason why Tianyoucao thinks it has been cheated, but Tianyoucao does not know the specific reasons why the two families did this!

"What should we do? These two guys are not easy to kill!"

"Killing is useless. You and I can't absorb the power of blood shadow!"

"What a pity, that person's Zixia Zhenyuan is really delicious!"

"There are plenty of opportunities. The artifact will be unsealed soon. These people will definitely fight to the death for it. The Purple Jade Ring and the Lingyao Bow, no one can resist grabbing them!"

The two Tianyou leaf shadows actually left. This was something Xue Ji and Murong Lunbo never expected. It was obvious that Ye Ying had the upper hand just now!

The two of them didn't know that Tianyou Yeying could not be hurt, and they would only absorb the true energy of those who were completely unable to defend themselves.

With a "puff", Murong Rongbo spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

Xue Ji was shocked!

"You are the Lord of Youzhou after all. Why do you always have to wait for others to save you? This shouldn't be the case. I heard the legendary story of you going to Yanquan alone when I was a child!"

"I was right to save you back then!"

Xue Ji was holding Murong Lunbo and looking for a place to take refuge. In fact, he was also injured. He only took one move from two Ye Yings.

Murong Lunbo was really embarrassed, and he also tried to avoid the question because it was his secret, his only secret.

"I don't want to owe you a favor, and I don't know how much I can repay you!"

Xue Ji looked somewhat lonely. Jian Ying's affairs were coming to an end, and his death was approaching.

Murong Lunbo probably knew why Xue Ji said that!

"Jian Ying City, perhaps the name Yu Yao City is more suitable for this place!"

There was a hint of worry in Murong Lunbo's tone, but more of it was curiosity.

Murong Lunbo already knew that many people from Xuantian Sect had come, and that their overwhelming momentum and power meant they were taking over Jianying Holy City.

Today, the walls of Jianying Holy City are filled with people from Xuantian Sect. Murong Rongbo cannot guess whether Xuantian Sect came for the seal of the artifact, or for the sealed object, or for some other purpose.

Xue Ji and the other two soon arrived at a remote courtyard. Xue Ji stood in front of the window, looking at the snowy scene in the courtyard. After a long while, he whispered:

"Yuyao Tower! Sigh, the Ouyang family has occupied Jianying City for hundreds of years, but they didn't know that the Xuantian Sect was behind Yuyao Tower. Now that I think about it, the Ouyang family was just helping the Xuantian Sect manage Yuyao City. Sigh!"

Xue Ji was shaking his head. He felt really sad inside. The Ji family was a tiger, the Xuantian Sect was a wolf, and the Ouyang family was just a sheep to be slaughtered. Now it seemed that it was right for Ouyang Qingcheng to join the Ji family. How ridiculous, how sad, and how ironic it was for the two brothers!

"The Xuantian Sect is coming with great force, and the situation in Jianying is treacherous and unpredictable. We are all trapped in a jar. Our life or death depends on the Ji family and the Xuantian Sect. If they join forces like they did a thousand years ago, all the people in Jianying City, whether they are good or evil, will probably be buried here!"

Murong Yanbo felt regretful. He really didn't expect that he would enter the underground dark city just once. Now when he appeared again, the sky in Jianying City had changed.

If the Xuantian Sect really came for the divine weapon, no one in Jianying City would have the chance to obtain it!

Murong Yanbo was unwilling to give up. After a thousand years, he finally found the purple jade ring of the Murong family, and it was so close to him, but now he might miss it again.

Murong Lunbo truly believes that fate is unfair and the world is unfair!

Murong Lunbo also walked to the window frame, and the two of them stood side by side quietly, one drinking wine and the other drinking blood. They really looked like two close friends, and their hearts were very close.

"Actually, I don't like drinking alcohol. I like drinking tea. I like the tea brewed in the Ziyun Divine Pavilion!"

"I love drinking blood, I love it very much. Only by drinking blood can I know that I am a human being!"

There was sadness in Xue Ji's tone, without any concealment. He also needed someone to understand him.

"Are you worried about your son?"

"I guess so. Aren't you worried about Xixi too? Do you regret letting Xixi enter the martial arts world? Life in Ziyun Divine Pavilion is really comfortable and leisurely!"

"I guess so, but that's all I can give Xixi. The rest depends on her!"

Xue Ji raised the wine jug and clinked it with Murong Lunbo's, then drank it in one gulp.

"If possible, help me take my son away from Jianying!"

"If one day, Xixi and I are both in danger, you must save Xixi, not me!"

The north wind is cold and the snow is falling!

At dusk, the two friends made a promise to each other.
