So, so long that it seemed to stretch into eternity

In a person's lifetiht experience a few instances like this On the verge of death, for exaren backward, the sword hovering in midair, until he saw the face of the person behind him — Han Yuan

There were many reasons for Han Yuan to suddenly coht have wanted to watch, or add another kick to Zhou Hanzheng, or raainst him

At that moment, his Si-shi+di's eyes were blood-red, just like the rogue cultivators on Azure Dragon Island That familiar face was shrouded in a dark aura, his features twisted He seey to this one hand and used too n of feeling pain

The rogue cultivators on the island who had been affected by Soul-Painting were the same — let's notthe Qian stared at Han Yuan in astonish out fro with the joy and fury in his heart There was no patching it up, there was no use in struggling, no matter how much he couldn't believe this situation

Eaze He pulled his hand out of Cheng Qian's chest, causing the blood and gore on his hand to splatter on his face He then watched as Cheng Qian collapsed at his feet, as if in a trance

Cheng Qian had been staring at hi subconsciously The little reather in a circle around his eyes, but he couldn't speak a single word

All the ups and downs of the past ten years, at theinto the absurdity of ‘Such is the way of life'

At last, Shuangren, which was already held against Han Yuan's neck, tre like an ordinary piece ofa shallow cut on Han Yuan's skin

This turn of events happened so rapidly that everyone was du seem to snap out of his drea position on the ground, but his limbs felt like lead His entire body had stiffened like a rock, so he couldn't even stand

But Li Yun, who had always been a coward, was overtaken with ee of the rogue cultivators on the island, he rushed forithout a care and pushed Han Yuan away

After being pushed away, Han Yuan's body tipped backward and fell, but he didn't even try to get up His blank gaze was turned a bit sideways If it weren't for the rise and fall of his chest, he would've looked just like a fresh corpse

“Xiao-Qian, Xiao-Qian…” Li Yun's gaze wasQian One of his hands ai onto a shred of hope that he could procure anything to help

Cheng Qian was lying on his side like a dried fish Probably because he'd heard Li Yun's voice, his dazed eyes suddenly regained so past Li Yun, alht into Zhou Hanzheng's skull

This sword and the person wielding it see ‘Even in death, the heart ofwas barely holding on after being released fro Jade, and then he'd activated the ‘Art of Soul Painting' that he had placed on Han Yuan in the past He was basically finished at that point After receiving that last strike, the biggest cala Qian had a special connection with Shuangren, so he didn't need to see for hi had truly died under his sword

A small smile spread on the youth's bloodstained face — he had finally killed that Zhou person Fro as they were careful, nobody out there would know that they were fro for those questionable artifacts on Fuyao Mountain…

Cheng Qian let out a s as if he could finally retire after winning htly It was as if a person on the verge of death would instinctively search for a final resting place

At that moment, Li Yun exclai?”

As soon as Zhou Hanzheng was killed, the puppet-like Han Yuan had twitched violently But there see him, because Han Yuan didn't fully wake up His dazed eyes turned to look at the surroundings When he found Cheng Qian, signs of struggle appeared on his face, as if the real Han Yuan was fighting to regain control over his body

But in the end, he didn't e to wake up

Han Yuan suddenly stood Without sparing a glance to his sect allies, he walked straight toward the sea

Li Yun was sobbing so hard he could hardly breathe Making a seal with his hands, which he didn't even know if he'd done correctly, he slapped Han Yuan's back Countless fine webs spread out froht where you are!”

Han Yuan allowed those fine webs to cut into his own body, producing aLi Yun clenched his teeth and curled his fingers inward, about to forcefully pull hiulfed in fla with those flames — in the blink of an eye, they had co with the clothes on Han Yuan's body And then, with nothing left to hinder him, the cohty sea just like that He didn't surface again

But Cheng Qian wasn't aware of these happenings The entirety of his senses had been dulled, all of them focused on his pain A pair of cold hands reached out, pulling hiers brushed against his face

How strange At theQian couldn't even sround around hirance of orchids

This was the scent wafting out of Dshi+xiong's sleeves whenever he appliedon the sheets whenever he lazed around in shi+xiong's room Whenever this scent filled the air around hi asleep

Cheng Qian's consciousness began to fade The clarity inspired by his desire to drag Zhou Hanzheng doith hiotten where he was

“I…” Cheng Qian began to rave in a soft voice

Yan Zheng Qian's lips, “Nn?”

“… want to go… ho was stunned for quite a while The smile on his face was soered to his feet with Cheng Qian in his ar will take you back to Fuyao Mountain, let's go”

Cheng Qian seeth to speak, so he fell silent
