In the realm of inherited swords.

Xue Mingyuan sat cross-legged under the pine tree again, staring at the shadow on the ground quietly, and said calmly: "The heart sword cannot kill you, but it can weaken you, and that is enough."

The heart sword nailed to Xue Chenjing's chest, wearing away the evil in him. The shadow struggled and twisted violently, and his five fingers dug out crisscrossing grooves on the rocks on the ground.

He cried and begged: "Brother, I was wrong, I shouldn't have summoned those demons, please forgive me this time, please forgive me, I don't want to die, I'm in so much pain, brother, we are one, you will also be in pain..." @無限好文，盡在晉江文學城

Xue Mingyuan was indifferent, he knew his nature too well, or rather, he knew too well how despicable and vile his other side was.

The more pitiful and humble he cried now, the more ruthless he would be when he took control and bit back at him.

He was born a demon, able to attract demons to come and make pilgrimages. If he was allowed to become powerful, there would be no peace in this world.

Xue Mingyuan would not have the slightest mercy on him.

"No, I didn't summon them, they came on their own. If I don't swallow them, they will swallow me." Xue Chenjing raised his hand and tried to grab Xue Mingyuan's sleeves, crying, "I don't want to kill anyone either. I will control myself. I won't be affected by them anymore. Don't kill me..."

Xue Mingyuan pulled back his sleeves and patted them with his hands, as if he was stained with something he couldn't tolerate.

Xue Chenjing's facial features were distorted like a ghost, and his shadow almost lost its human form and turned into a demon.

He tried hard to break free from the Sword of Heart, and laughed sarcastically: "So what if it's a demon? Demons are the cutest things in the world. At least they won't be like the Ji family, who imprisoned me in the belly of the mountain, worshipped me, and cut flesh and blood from me to satisfy their inflated ambitions."

Xue Mingyuan's calm expression was moved for a moment, and he forced himself to calm down again and not be fooled by his words.

Xue Chenjing knew how to poke his sore spot. He knew that Xue Mingyuan had been imprisoned in a temple in the belly of the mountain and was hurt again and again by the people he wanted to protect.

They worshipped him like a god, prayed to him, and asked for his protection. From the beginning, they just wanted to seek a little strength to survive, but in the end, their ambitions became more and more inflated.

Praying has turned into asking for something, and the person blessed by the gods has imprisoned the gods instead.

"Bai Taisui, hahahaha, you also hate this name, don't you? In the end, you also hate those Ji family members who treated you as livestock, don't you? Otherwise, how could my power increase so quickly and finally control this body?"

"It was me, I killed those crazy Ji family members and rescued you from there, but you betrayed me in the end!"

Xue Chenjing's voice echoed on the cliff, crying and laughing, mixed with the sound of the whistling wind on the cliff, it really sounded like ghosts crying and wolves howling.

"Do you really think you are a god? Gods have long been extinct. You and I are just the ashes left over from the battlefield between gods and demons. We were born into such a chaotic ghost thing that we cannot even enter reincarnation. We can only torture each other for life after life."

"Ah, you don't think you can become a god by killing me? Or do you really think you are a god? Then take a look at this world. The world is full of smoke and miasma. The people you love are not even as good as demons. Hahahaha."

Xue Chenjing's voice became weaker and weaker. His crazy laughter disappeared with the wind, and the twisted shadow under the heart sword gradually melted away.

Xue Mingyuan finally relaxed, leaned against the pine tree behind him, and looked up at the endless darkness in the distance. When the morning light broke through the horizon, he stood up, straightened his clothes, brushed his sleeves, and walked down the mountain.

The golden light of the morning sun shone obliquely, and fell on the finger prints that crisscrossed the ground. Those finger prints overlapped one after another. What happened tonight had happened countless times in the past.

In the gradually brightening morning sun, a few strands of remnant thoughts floated out from the finger marks and disappeared into the woods with the wind.

A black shadow was reflected in Yu Yi's vision, and it flashed away. She seemed to hear a laugh in her ear, and murmured: "Haha, does it look good? Be careful, anyone who peeks will be swallowed by the devil."

Then she was drowned by a strong malice, and the malice penetrated under her skin and lurked into the depths of her heart.

He turned all the negative emotions in her heart into hatred, tempting her to join him and hate the world together.

He discovered the deepest secret in her heart and said excitedly: "You want to go back? Destroy this world, and you can go back. Destroy it with me, okay? This world has trapped you, so destroy it. If anyone makes you sad, kill him."

That remnant thought excitedly drilled into her heart, giving birth to a dark moss in her heart.

Yu Yi's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she couldn't help but kneel on the ground. At the end of her sight was the warning stone tablet, on which many people left warnings as a lesson: Don't get close, be careful of being tempted by it, be careful of being polluted by it.

Suddenly, Ming Zhaojun's cold voice came from behind, "When your heart is in thrall, others will take advantage of you. Zhuchun First Sword teaches you to face your own heart. Think carefully, are those things you treasured in your heart the source of your pain, or the cornerstone of your sword heart?"

They are not the source of her pain, they should not be the source of her pain.

Ming Zhaojun's voice and Xue Chenjing's temptation intertwined together. Yu Yi closed her eyes, and the sword mark on her forehead glowed. The glow finally condensed into the shape of a sword and pierced through her heart.

A black shadow was entangled on the tip of the sword, and it pierced into the ground with a sound. The black shadow twisted for a moment and dissipated unwillingly.

…

In the weapon building of Chunyan Pavilion, Xue Chenjing woke up again. His expression was distorted to the extreme. He shouted angrily: "Why, why didn't you choose me?"

The system was startled and asked in confusion: "Master, what's wrong? Did you have a nightmare again?"

Hearing the voice of the system, Xue Chenjing suddenly calmed down, as if he had finally woken up from the nightmare. The pain disappeared from his eyes. He rubbed his chest blankly, and the oath monument in his heart was shaking.

——He seemed to have done something to hurt her again.

Xue Chenjing subconsciously turned his head to look at the weapon building where Yu Yi was, turned over and jumped off the weapon furnace, rushed to the outside of Yu Yi's weapon building, and wanted to break the barrier and break in to see.

What is she doing? Where is she?

The system said quickly, "Master, no, calm down! If you break in now, you will interrupt the heroine's sword tempering."

Xue Chenjing clenched his fingers and paced back and forth anxiously outside. He recalled the details of the dream again, the cliffs, pine and cypress, boulders, the eternally dark sky, and the heart that was pierced again and again.

His footsteps suddenly stopped, "That was not a dream, that was not a dream at all!"

Was it the previous life, or the previous previous life? He had died too many times, and sometimes the remnants would linger in the place where he died, like a haunted spirit that refused to dissipate.

So, when his memories began to awaken in this life, he first had dreams, many dreams of repeated death. He was still young at that time, and he was frightened by nightmares and woke up crying every night. In order not to have nightmares, he hid at night and let his brother control his body.

At that time, Xue Mingyuan was still his brother, and he was very tolerant of him. If he had nightmares when sleeping, he would let his brother sleep. If he didn't like to eat vegetables, he would let his brother eat them. If he fell and bumped and was afraid of pain, he would let his brother feel the pain.

Anyway, Xue Mingyuan was sensible and well-behaved. He would not be scared by nightmares, nor was he afraid of pain.

However, as his past memories came back more and more, he realized that it was not a nightmare. He was afraid of being killed again, so he no longer resisted the demons that were attracted to him, merged with them, and imprisoned Xue Mingyuan first.

He thought he could live well this way. But Xue Mingyuan disappeared, and his parents always asked: "Didn't my brother show up today? My brother hasn't come out for several days. Did you bully my brother, Shen Jing?"

"Shen Jing, did you have a fight? Why hasn't my brother come out yet?"

"Mother hasn't seen my brother for a month, Chen Jing, please let my brother come out for a while."

Finally, his mother held him in her arms, but kept calling Xue Mingyuan's name, "How could Mingyuan disappear? How could he suddenly disappear? Are you playing some games again? Mingyuan, come out quickly and let Daddy and Mommy see you."

Xue Chenjing felt annoyed, and said word by word: "He just disappeared, and will never appear again. He doesn't want you anymore."

His parents stared at him in disbelief, and Xue Chenjing asked innocently and expectantly: "Isn't it good for me to be your child?"

He will always remember the word "not good" that his mother blurted out.

Now is the same as then, he has obviously locked Xue Mingyuan up, why can Yu Yi still find him?

Xue Chenjing squatted at the door of the weapon building, thinking about everything in his dream over and over again, searching through his chaotic memories of his past life.

Finally, he found a clue.

He remembered that in one life, they were born in a Taoist family and learned Taoism since childhood. Xue Mingyuan was a genius in Taoism and the most promising future pillar of the family, but he had a fatal weakness, which was him.

Xue Chenjing could no longer remember what his name was in that life. Of course, it was very likely that he had no name. For many lives, he did not have his own name and only existed as Xue Mingyuan's inner demon.

It seemed to be the same in that life. Xue Mingyuan was troubled by his inner demon and made a special trip to Daqing Mountain to find a famous sword master at that time to learn the heart sword, just to kill his inner demon.

That was hundreds or thousands of years ago. Daqing Mountain no longer exists. How did Yu Yi go back to the past? Or did someone seal up Daqing Mountain?

If it weren't for that lingering thought, he wouldn't know where she went.

But now, that lingering thought has been cut off, and he can no longer know what Yu Yi did there afterwards. Maybe she will talk to Xue Mingyuan from the past. They learned sword together, and they should have a lot of common topics.

She saw him being chopped off, so ugly, she should hate him even more.

Maybe they will even discuss together how to kill him completely.

Xue Chenjing breathed heavily, closed his eyes and buried his head in his palms, and asked in a deep voice: "System, favorability, what is the current favorability? Has it decreased?"

@無限好文，盡在晉江文學城 The

system sensed the host's anxiety and replied: "The current target's favorability is 35%. Congratulations to the host. Not only has it not decreased, but it has increased!"

Xue Chenjing was not happy at all. Instead, his face was distorted and his eyes were frighteningly red. He cursed: "Congratulations, she can't even see me now, how can the favorability increase? Open it for me."

Sure enough, all these favorability points were for Xue Mingyuan.

The system was confused by his scolding and asked, "What do you want to separate?"

"Separate her favorability towards me and Xue Mingyuan." Xue Chenjing sneered, "Xue Mingyuan is Xue Mingyuan, I am me, I don't want to take advantage of him."

The system was silent for a moment, "Sorry, host, the system cannot fulfill this request."

Xue Chenjing's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You are such a waste."

System: "..."

Xue Chenjing squatted in the same place for a long time, and suddenly stood up, with spiritual light flowing from his fingertips, drawing interlaced spiritual lines.

The spiritual power flowed out, much thicker than before. Xue Chenjing completely integrated the civilian fire and the coccyx, and his cultivation finally broke through the foundation-building period and successfully formed a pill.

He decided to ignore the goodwill calculated by the waste system. He was going to pry open the barrier of the equipment building and break in to see what Yu Yi was doing.

Just at this moment, the system suddenly "ding--".

[System: Ding--the subplot "Love Flower Valley" has been unlocked. ]

Before the system sounded, a golden light shot into the sky from somewhere, exploding a bunch of fireworks in the air. The sparks of the fireworks turned into large golden characters hanging in the air.

It was an invitation from Zhaohua Palace.

Because of the incident of Wuzhe Tower, the Palace Master of Zhaohua Palace wrote this letter in person to apologize to the people of Yinzhou City, and to thank the Taoist friends for their help in sealing Wuzhe Tower and preventing lives from being charred.

It was decided that from now on, the secret realm of Zhaohua Palace, the Valley of Love, would be opened, and all cultivators would be invited to enter the valley for trials. All treasures obtained by the cultivators in the valley would belong to them.

Xue Chenjing paused, and the spiritual thread in his hand disappeared. He turned his head to look at the surging sword fire above the weapon building, hesitated for a moment, turned around and walked out of the Chunyan Pavilion.
