“Brother-in-law…brother-in-law…brother-in-law!!”
Xia Yuanba rushed forward like crazy and fell under Xing Tianjian, banging his hands on the table under Xing Tianjian, causing blood to gushed out of his knuckles. However, Xing Tianjian's suppression was so strong that even if all the strength of Tianjian Villa was gathered together, it would not be able to shake it in the slightest. Not to mention one Xia Yuanba, even if there were tens of millions of Xia Yuanbas, it would not be possible to hurt them in the slightest.
Everyone’s faces were filled with shock. They had never expected that Yun Che, who had defeated the core disciples of various major sects at the age of seventeen and won the first place in the ranking battle, and whose name shook the sky, would fall in front of them in such a hasty way that no one could have predicted, just after he put on this extremely dazzling halo.
The fundamental reason for his death was not an accident caused by the evildoers, but simply because he saved a person who was not even a "waste" in their eyes. While people sighed, they didn't know whether to praise his loyalty or sigh at his stupidity.
"How could this happen..." Qin Wushang was already dumbfounded, standing there for a long time, at a loss. He was about to return to Blue Wind Imperial City with great honor and glory, but a nightmare suddenly came. He raised his head and gasped heavily, his chest was almost stuffy and about to explode. Holding a glimmer of hope, he walked in front of Ling Kun with heavy steps, and said with a gloomy look: "Elder Ling, can you raise the Xing Tian Sword again... Yun Che may... perhaps..."
Halfway through his speech, Qin Wushang was already too sad to continue… What if he raised the Xing Tian Sword again? Everyone saw clearly the miserable state of Yun Che under the attack of the demon. With such a serious injury, let alone a mysterious practitioner who had just entered the Lingxuan realm, even if he was a super strong person in the Tianxuan realm, he would definitely die… There was no chance of luck.
Qin Wushang's words shocked Xia Yuanba, who was crying in despair. He then rushed over and knelt down in front of Ling Kun with a plop. He hugged his legs with his blood-stained hands: "Elder Ling... Elder Ling, I beg you... I beg you to have mercy and raise the Xing Tian Sword... My brother-in-law... He won't die so easily... Please... Please... Please save my brother-in-law!! "
Xia Yuanba's voice was hoarse and desperate, and everyone who heard his voice was trembling in their hearts. Ling Kun's face was not good, because this matter was ultimately caused by him. If he had not had the whim before the ranking battle to let the top ten sects in the ranking battle come to observe the demon sealing ceremony, this would never have happened. If it was Xia Yuanba who died, this matter would be nothing more than a trivial matter that would be quickly forgotten... That's right! No one will remember the weak, let alone a dead weak. This is the most real reality.
But Yun Che, he was the first in this ranking battle! More importantly, he had no sect or faction, and fought as a disciple of the imperial family's Xuanfu. His achievement inspired and encouraged countless young people who had no sect support but had the dream of becoming a strong man. The sensation caused by his victory this time exceeded every previous one. People in Tianjian Villa were unaware of it, but in the territory of Cangfeng Empire, a huge storm had already been set off because of Yun Che. Especially in Cangfeng Imperial City, the whole city is now decorated with lights and colors, ready to welcome Yun Che's return. Even Cangfeng Emperor Cang Wanhe is beaming with rosy glow, looking forward to their triumphant return every day.
His perfect control of the heavy sword also made Ling Kun want to bring him into the Tianwei Sword Domain.
But such a person just perished like this.
If this matter were to be spread, the waves of public opinion it would cause would be tantamount to setting off a huge wave in the entire Blue Wind Empire.
Ling Kun took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Ridiculous! How can the suppression of Xing Tian Sword be activated just by saying so? The profound formation I used to activate it just now took more than a dozen great elders of Tianwei Sword Domain a very long time to complete... Alas! Even if it can be activated, what does it matter? His injury just now... will definitely kill him. This is also his own fault... You... just give up."
Ling Kun's words were a fact known to everyone. Even in the Heavenly Might Soul-Suppressing Formation, the demon could still exert the strength of the King Profound Realm. His attack was simply not something Yun Che could withstand. They all shuddered at the injuries Yun Che suffered from that palm strike. With such injuries, anyone present would not be able to survive even if they looked at the mountains of elixirs.
Even if he really wasn't dead and still had a breath left, he was still under the control of a demon who was clearly driven crazy. How could he be alive!
Even if we take a million steps back, even if the demon had a brain attack and didn't kill him, and he came back to life like a myth... Xing Tianjian's suppression would only be activated once every twenty years. With the demon's strength, he wouldn't die even if he didn't eat or drink for a hundred years, but with Yun Che's realm, one or two months would basically be the limit, and then he would die of hunger and thirst.
No matter what, Yun Che was doomed to die.
"Oh!" Qin Wushang sighed, closed his eyes, and felt sad in his heart.
Xia Yuanba was motionless. He knelt there, completely motionless, as if he had suddenly died.
"Yuanba, get up. Live well so that you can live up to the life you saved with Yun Che's life." Qin Wushang said sadly. After he finished speaking, he did not get any response from Xia Yuanba. He lowered his head and wanted to pull him up, but suddenly saw that there were two long bloodstains on Xia Yuanba's face.
Blood and tears!! A person will only shed blood and tears when he is extremely sad, extremely painful, on the verge of mental collapse, and his soul is crying endlessly!!
Qin Wushang's heart trembled violently. At this moment, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated the feelings between Yun Che and Xia Yuanba. He would not know that during the time when Yun Che's profound veins were crippled and he suffered from cold eyes and ridicule, apart from his grandfather and aunt, only Xia Yuanba always stood in front of him, comforting and encouraging him, and fighting with those who laughed at him again and again. When he was young, Xia Yuanba was almost half of Yun Che's spiritual support, and the only brother who was truly engraved in his heart in this life. As he became stronger and more glorious, various "friends" would appear around him, but these feelings could never compare to the pure feelings Xia Yuanba had for him during the time when he was the most destitute, the most despised, and even thought to have no future.
Therefore, after he became powerful, he could not bear to see Xia Yuanba being bullied. Anyone who hurt Xia Yuanba would be made to pay a heavy price. When he saw Xia Yuanba in trouble, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his life for his own... because Xia Yuanba was totally worth it.
Qin Wushang squatted in front of Xia Yuanba in a hurry and comforted him: “Yuanba, are you…are you okay? Sigh…if you want to cry, just cry out loud. After crying, you must live well, live to take care of Yun Che’s funeral, and live to help Yun Che complete all the things he has not completed…”
Qin Wushang's consolation did not elicit any reaction from Xia Yuanba. He knelt there, motionless, his face was so pale that no trace of blood could be seen, his eyes were empty without a trace of spirit, and two bloody tears on his pale face looked extremely shocking...
"Yuan Ba!" Qin Wushang roared.
This roar shook Xia Yuanba's entire body, as if he had suddenly woken up from a nightmare. He suddenly screamed "Ah!", stood up, and rushed to the north like a madman. The heart-wrenching cry was like a steel needle with endless sorrow, piercing everyone's heart. No one tried to stop him, and they all watched him run farther and farther away in their sight with complicated eyes.
"Yuan Ba!!" Qin Wushang shouted in shock. He wanted to chase after him, but he had to take care of the unconscious Cang Yue. He sighed deeply, and his heart felt as heavy as if a mountain had pressed down on it.
"Master Ling, please send someone to look after my disciple Yuanba." Qin Wushang said weakly, not wanting to say another word to anyone. He picked up Cangyue and flew quickly towards their courtyard, his back looking extremely lonely and sad.
"How could this happen… How could this happen…" Ling Jie sat down on the ground, staring blankly at the huge Xing Tian Sword, his heart was in turmoil for a moment.
"God is really jealous of talented people." Ling Yun closed his eyes and said regretfully.
"Elder Wuqiu, send someone to follow closely that person called... Xia Yuanba, and don't let him get into any accidents. Also, have Grandma Jiumu go to see Princess Cangyue, and don't let her get hurt physically and mentally, alas." After Ling Yuefeng finished his instructions, he also sighed deeply. To be ranked first in the ranking battle with the profound strength of the True Profound Realm, such an achievement can be said to be unprecedented, but such a rare genius in a thousand years has fallen just like that, which makes people feel regretful.
"Yes." Ling Wugou retreated with a serious expression.
"Let's go too." Chu Yueli's eyes changed in a complex way, and she left silently with Shui Wushuang and Wu Xuexin. She felt a little sorry and regretful about Yun Che's death, and at the same time, she felt a little bit of relief that she shouldn't have... Because in this way, Xia Qingyue would be completely free from the shackles of the mortal world, and could stay in Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace quietly until one day she inherited the position of Palace Master and led Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace to stand at the top of the Blue Wind Empire. The huge favor that Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace owed to Yun Che also disappeared.
Most people were lamenting and groaning, and of course there were some people secretly gloating. For Fen Juecheng, this result was simply a pleasant surprise from heaven. He secretly sneered and said, "Idiot! You actually risked your life to save a piece of trash... You are such an idiot! But you are lucky to die cleanly. If you fall into my hands, don't expect to die so easily!"
People began to gradually disperse. They could foresee that a huge storm of public opinion would be set off within the Blue Wind Empire due to Yun Che's sudden death.
Ling Kun stood there, looking at Xing Tianjian, frowning and thinking: Strange! After Yun Che entered the Heavenly Might Soul-Suppressing Formation, the power he released was clearly not weakened at all compared to before... Why was he not suppressed by the Heavenly Might Soul-Suppressing Formation? Was it some kind of coincidence, or was there a loophole in the Heavenly Might Soul-Suppressing Formation?
But the person was already dead, and there was no point in thinking about it anymore. He flicked his sleeves vigorously, and the whole person turned into a stream of light so fast that it was invisible, and disappeared from the sword-controlling platform.
……………………
“Wha…what? What did you say…what did you say!?”
After Chu Yueli told Xia Qingyue the whole story of Yun Che's death, she hadn't received Xia Qingyue's response yet, but she first heard Chu Yuechan's voice that was trembling like a lotus leaf in the wind.
Chu Yuechan stood up, and the ice spirit in her body became extremely frantic. Chu Yueli looked at her in surprise and asked in confusion: "Sister, what's wrong with you? You..."
"You said he was dead...he...died...?"
At this moment, Chu Yuechan's voice was so weak that it seemed to float from the clouds. Her eyelashes, eyes, icy spirit, and whole body... were all trembling... Chu Yueli was shocked. She knew her sister better than anyone else. There was almost nothing in this world that could shake her heart. But now, her emotions were clearly out of control... and completely out of control! This was the first time in her memory. She walked a few steps to Chu Yuechan and said anxiously: "Sister, what's wrong with you? Did you... did you hear something wrong? I said the person who died was Yun Che. He died at the hands of that monster in order to save Xia Yuanba who came with him. His body was suppressed under the sword platform together with that monster..."
Before Chu Yueli finished her words, Chu Yuechan had already rushed out, leaving behind only a gust of extremely desolate cold wind.
"Sister!" Chu Yueli exclaimed and hurriedly chased after her.
Shui Wushuang and Wu Xuexin looked at each other, at a loss as to what to do.
As for Xia Qingyue…she sat there motionless, her eyes completely still, staring ahead without any color or focus. Even her breathing and heartbeat had completely stopped. It was as if her entire body had turned into a beautiful lifeless ice sculpture in an instant…
