Chapter 682 Never Betray
Finally, he answered in a deep but firm voice: "Yes."
It was just a simple word, but it was like a bolt from the blue, causing many people's faces to change.
Nan Rong Jingyun's breathing suddenly became difficult. She looked in Nie Xun's direction with sad eyes. It turned out that he had always belonged to someone else.
He is the candidate imperial husband of the eldest princess Shen Ke.
My secret love ended in vain.
Everyone in the Jidao Sect was also extremely shocked. They didn't expect that Nie Xun would be the candidate for the Emperor's husband of the eldest princess Chen Ke!
Chen Yan heard the sound of the wind. She turned her head in surprise and looked in the direction of Nie Xun. Her eyes met his. The other's gaze was so gentle and firm, mixed with unspeakable pain.
She knew that his pain was because he would betray Jidao Sect for this identity and then watch his fellow disciples die.
Chen Yan's heart sank and he quickly looked away.
Her brows were furrowed.
She never imagined that Nie Xun was one of the candidate imperial husbands in her previous life!
Sui Changyun was also shocked.
After seeing Nie Xun's actions, the old minister immediately confirmed his identity and ordered, "Come here, escort Master Nie out!"
Nie Xun is not only a disciple of the leader of the Jidao Sect, but also the son of the Nie family of the Tianzhou Dynasty, and also the candidate for the Emperor's husband.
His identity is complicated.
Can't kill.
We can only let him leave here first!
"Nie Xun, you can't leave!" Long Yibai shouted angrily, "You are from Jidao Sect, do you want to betray Jidao Sect? You..."
Just when Long Yibai wanted to continue cursing and venting his uneasy emotions, he was stopped by Xun E who was standing beside him.
"Yibai, don't be afraid."
After hearing this, Long Yibai's lips trembled slightly. He looked at Xun E with moist eyes, his expression was a little fragile, "Senior Sister, I don't want to die..."
"Senior Sister can blaze a trail for you first." Xun'e gently raised her hand and touched his head.
Nan Rong Jingyun looked at Nie Xun and did not say anything to keep him.
Nie Xun looked up and met her eyes.
There wasn't much emotion in his eyes, but the moment he turned and left, he slowly closed his eyes, as if trying to hide the guilt deep in his heart.
After Nie Xun was escorted away.
The seven most powerful figures in the Jidao Sect rose up in resistance, trying their best to fight for a glimmer of hope.
"People with different ideals cannot work together." Sui Changyun spoke slowly, his eyes swept over the seven of them, and said coldly: "Sorry!"
Wu Ma Ling snorted coldly, "Sui Changyun, you may not be able to defeat us!"
As soon as the words fell, the two sides started fighting.
At this moment, the people of the three major forces could not withstand the fierce attack of the Tianzhou Imperial Army and the ghosts and beasts, and suffered heavy casualties.
The shrill screams never stopped.
The major forces that were watching witnessed the power of the Tianzhou forces, and also witnessed the cruelty of the war.
Chen Yan and Lu Jingcheng fought for several rounds.
It was obvious that Lu Jingcheng could not beat Chen Yan at all.
"Lu Jingcheng, everyone in your Lu family must die!"
The revenge of Tianzhou Dynasty, the revenge of Shen Chu, the revenge of Shen Huai...
Everyone must report it!
Chen Yan swung her sword, and a terrifying aura of spiritual energy burst out instantly. Her vertical pupils revealed cold murderous intent, and her voice was fierce and loud.
"Tianzhou Sword——"
"Mountains and seas are overturned!"
As the words fell, the airflow in the area exploded like a ignited gunpowder barrel. The powerful impact swept in all directions with overwhelming force. Wherever it passed, the onlookers felt an irresistible force coming at them, and their bodies were involuntarily shaken away.
At the same time, the extremely solid arena below could not withstand such violent force. It exploded with a series of crackling sounds, and countless dust and sand flew everywhere, forming a sandstorm that covered the sky and the sun.
Lu Jingcheng's pupils shrank, and he quickly raised his sword to block. The next moment, the magic sword in his hand suddenly exploded.
A deafening bang was heard, and it made people feel as if the ground beneath their feet was shaking.
When Lu Ling and the others in the Lu family saw this scene, their faces changed drastically and they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Dad!" Lu Ling's face turned pale with fear, and her heart instantly rose to her throat.
"Head of the family!" Everyone in the Lu family was extremely anxious and shouted loudly.
Everyone waited with bated breath.
When the sandstorm dissipated, Lu Jingcheng was seen smashed to the ground with blood gushing out of his mouth. His body was almost cut in half.
After everyone saw what was going on, their pupils trembled slightly and they couldn't help but say: "...This...this is..."
I saw the shadow of an old man appear above where Lu Jingcheng was.
White hair, white robe, and a stern face.
When Uncle Zeng and other old ministers saw him, they immediately recognized who the old man was.
And Chen Yan narrowed his black eyes slightly, and uttered three cold words from his lips: "Lu, Cong, Yang!"
This old man is none other than Lu Congyang, the ancestor of the Lu family, and the culprit who caused the downfall of the Tianzhou Dynasty more than 800 years ago!
Lu Congyang was in the state of a remnant soul at this time, but even so, it was because of his presence that Lu Jingcheng escaped death.
He looked at Chen Yan, his eyes full of tenderness, and sighed softly.
"Princess, you're back."
But the next moment, the corners of his lips twitched slightly, and his words were full of sarcasm: "Your Highness, even if you come back, what can you change? Kill all the people of the Lu family? Unify the Changming Realm? The fate of your Shen family will not change, and they can't come back. Because they all died for you."
Chen Yan looked at his fearless appearance and said, "You are not in Changming Realm."
Lu Congyang showed a surprised look and laughed a few times, "You guessed right, I left Changming Realm a long time ago."
"Don't you care about the Lu family?"
"Why bother? They are just a burden."
Lu Congyang's words instantly changed the expressions of those Lu family members who had originally rekindled their hope. They looked at Lu Congyang with anger and despair.
Lu Congyang said calmly: "To me, they are just termites, they are of no use at all."
"Grandfather, how can you say that?!" a disciple of the Lu family said angrily.
But Lu Congyang ignored him and continued to look at Chen Yan with a smile, saying something with ambiguous meaning.
"Your Highness, your memory recovery is getting slower and slower."
Chen Yan's face changed slightly, and just as she was about to say something, Lu Congyang's residual soul dissipated without hesitation.
At this moment, without the protection of Lu Congyang's residual soul, Lu Jingcheng's body was like a flower destroyed by a violent storm, and it deteriorated to the most serious state in an instant. Blood kept pouring out of his mouth, and the scarlet liquid was like a flood that broke through the dam, flowing continuously and could not be stopped at all.
"Daddy!" Lu Ling felt heartbroken when she saw Lu Jingcheng in such a miserable condition. She let out a heart-wrenching cry and then rushed to Lu Jingcheng's side as fast as she could.
Her trembling hands tightly covered Lu Jingcheng's bleeding wound, but the blood quickly dyed her hands red, slid down her fingertips, dripped onto the ground, and formed a shocking pool of blood.
At this moment, Chen Yan was walking towards this side step by step, and every step seemed to be stepping on Lu Ling's heart.
Lu Ling looked at the approaching smoke, her heart filled with fear.
She knelt on her knees with a painful look on her face, and begged Chen Yan with tears in her eyes: "Sister, please have mercy on us! Please spare Daddy! It's all our fault! Please!"
"Please be magnanimous and let us go, considering that we share almost the same blood! Please also let the Lu family go!" Lu Ling said as he kowtowed to Chen Yan repeatedly. The sound of his forehead hitting the ground could be clearly heard.
Her tearful voice begging for mercy was heartbreaking, and many of the onlookers were moved and felt sorry for her.
Everyone looked at Chen Yan.
Chen Yan approached the Lu family father and daughter step by step, her voice calm and without any fluctuations: "If the situation is reversed, will you, the Lu family, let us go? To be kind to the enemy is to betray yourself."
"I will never betray myself."
