Liu Jiantang stood still, then gently shook off Nangong's hand. "Junior sister, let go. We can't let your senior brother lie there like this."
At this moment, not far away, Xiao Yuhan, who had been stabbed by a sword, clutched his wound and walked step by step toward Ye Qingyun, who was lying in the snow. He dragged his heavy steps and slowly walked to the body. He was stunned.
Having lived in this world for so many years, the sect leader was one of the closest people to him. Although that was the setting in the original novel, and the sect leader trusted Xiao Yuhan deeply, the concern that the sect leader showed him over the years was something he had personally experienced and was not fake.
But for some reason, Xiao Yuhan felt nothing at this moment. He reached out and touched his senior brother's cheek; his body was still warm, and his peaceful expression was as if he were asleep. "How could this be... how could he die... how could someone like my senior brother die..."
At this moment, Xiao Yuhan's mind went blank. He had temporarily lost his ability to think. Indeed, he didn't know when it started, but he could feel at ease as long as he was in the Heavenly Sword Sect because his senior brother, the sect leader, was there. Although his senior brother was not invincible, he could always silently solve many troublesome things.
In Xiao Yuhan's eyes, he was a god, so why was he dying now? Xiao Yuhan couldn't accept it. As soon as he got close to Ye Qingyun, he subconsciously reached out and covered his chest, but he had already stopped breathing.
"Impossible... My senior brother is such a strong person, how could he die at the hands of someone like you, for no reason, just because he refused to surrender!" As he spoke, Xiao Yuhan looked coldly at Wen Xiao, but at this time his condition was not much better. He also had a penetrating wound in his chest, but his heart meridian was not damaged.
However, the lungs and heart are just as deadly. As Wen Xiao walked step by step toward Xiao Yuhan, Bai Yao suddenly appeared in front of Wen Xiao and struck him with a palm. Wen Xiao was still somewhat wary of her and tentatively took the blow.
Bai Yao was knocked back a few steps and coughed up blood. Wen Xiao was relieved. "Little girl, if the person inside you wakes up, we might be able to fight. But right now, you're only at Ye Jiantang's level. Unfortunately, you two will have to die here today. Choose your way to die."
Bai Yao turned to look at Xiao Yuhan and said, "Master, you go first, Yao'er will hold him off."
"No, no, no, little girl, have you misunderstood something?" Before the words were finished, Wen Xiao appeared in front of Bai Yao like a ghost, grabbed her throat, and then lifted her up. "Little girl, do you know that all of this started because of you? If you hadn't lived in this world, we wouldn't have attacked the Heavenly Sword Sect several times, and we wouldn't be here today. Ye Qingyun died. It all started because of you. If you had died, so many more people wouldn't have died."
Bai Yao was still struggling, but upon hearing his words, she suddenly became stunned and turned to look at Ye Qingyun lying on the ground not far away, her feelings somewhat complicated.
At this moment, Liu Jiantang was about to step forward to help with his sword, but before he could do so, Wen Xiao attacked again, his sword ready to end Bai Yao's life. Wen Xiao was thinking of letting Bai Yao and Xiao Yuhan go, so he didn't really want to kill her. However, suddenly, Bai Yao struggled and her wrist collided with Wen Xiao's sword.
The sword shattered her bracelet. The stone in the bracelet seemed to have been given to her by an old fortune teller when she went to the Huai River. At that time, the fortune teller said that he was destined to meet Bai Yao and gave her this spirit stone. But Bai Yao had only kept it because she thought it was pretty.
Actually, the bracelet wasn't broken. Instead, it triggered some kind of restriction on its own after Bai Yao was attacked. Bai Yao wasn't particularly distressed about this bracelet of unknown origin.
But what was strange was Wen Xiao's reaction. He suddenly let go of her hand, his eyes became very unfocused, and then he subconsciously took a few steps back, almost losing his balance.
Seeing this opportunity, Bai Yao immediately turned to look at Xiao Yuhan, only to find that Xiao Yuhan was already very weak, with blood flowing continuously from his chest. Knowing that Wen Xiao was after the two of them, Bai Yao did not hesitate at all, and went forward to grab her master and run away.
At this moment, Bai Yao possessed demonic power that made her a top-tier expert. Apart from Wen Xiao, there were few others present who could stop her.
Wen Xiao was still in a daze, but this was not something he pretended to do in order to let Bai Yao and Xiao Yuhan go. Rather, after the little girl's bracelet broke, a spiritual force entered his mind. It did not harm him, but in a daze, many unfamiliar images appeared in his mind. For some reason, a strong sense of sadness overwhelmed him.
Suddenly, Lu Yuan appeared out of nowhere, wielding a celestial sword and thrusting it at Wen Xiao. Almost no one could react in time, but Wen Xiao didn't dodge. Lu Yuan's sword encountered no resistance whatsoever, piercing Wen Xiao's chest. Even Lu Yuan himself was surprised, but a long-lost madness flashed in his expression: "Die...you die!!"
After saying that, he twisted the hilt of his sword, trying to widen the wound on Wen Xiao's body. The sword energy passed through his body, and the snowflakes danced in the air.
However, Wen Xiao also regained his senses at this moment and kicked Lu Yuan away. At this time, Lu Yuan was out of his mind and turned to flee, and it was unknown what had happened.
Liu Jiantang wouldn't let such an opportunity pass him by, and immediately ordered, "Shen Huairu, Nangong Ling'er! You two, take Senior Brother away, and take all the Heavenly Sword Sect disciples away. Hurry up, I'll hold these people off!"
Seeing this, Nangong Ling'er was naturally unwilling, but in such a critical moment, decisiveness was the most needed. Shen Huairu did not think too much and ordered Ai Yue and Lu Yuan to take away Ye Qingyun's body. Then he knocked Nangong Ling'er unconscious with a palm and prepared to take her away.
Before leaving, Shen Huairu turned to look at Liu Jiantang and asked, "Senior brother, you won't die, will you?"
