……
Changbai Mountain, Tianchi.
Wearing a plain robe but covered in blood, Yan Shouyi, holding the sword of Zhenguo, salvaged an old coffin from Tianchi.
Behind him were piles of corpses of followers of the New Xuanshan Sect, many of which were wooden puppets.
It can be seen how brutal the battle just now was.
Taking a deep breath and enduring the pain, Yan Shouyi kicked open the coffin lid and saw Li Genmiao's body lying inside.
Nearly two months have passed since the battle at Changbai Mountain, but Li Genmiao’s body has not rotted and is still exactly the same as before.
It seems like I just fell into a deep sleep.
"Are you still pretending?"
Yan Shouyi sneered at Li Genmiao in the coffin: "When I was connected to the consciousness of the Divine Peach Tree before, I learned that What the Six Paths Ksitigarbha sealed was not your true body. After thinking about it, the only thing related to you is the body of Li Genmiao sleeping in the Tianchi of Changbai Mountain. You almost fell into this trick. It's a lie."
Suddenly, Li Genmiao in the coffin suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Yan Shouyi with hatred.
Yan Shouyi was not afraid, and said to himself: "It is inevitable that the corpse puppet of Tiansha is afraid of Wutong wood. But when I faced your so-called true body, your The real body is not afraid of Wutong wood. Now I want to understand that it is not you who eliminated the weakness of Tiansha Corpse Puppet, but that the real body is not Tiansha Corpse Puppet at all!!"
"The real you used the golden cicada to escape from its shell, and hid in the Tianchi of Changbai Mountain with the heart of the sacred peach tree, controlling everything from a distance."
"If I hadn't come here today to find your true body , even if all the people in my Xuanmen die, I still can’t kill you, a thousand-year-old demon!!”
Li Genmiao in the coffin is his true body, and he already knows that he is far away in Rongcheng. Everything that happened.
After seeing through the ruse, Li Genmiao’s face became uglier than ever.
"It's a pity, it's a pity," Li Genmiao sighed, "all your friends in Rongcheng are dead. I am only one step away from completing my grand dream."
Knowing that all his friends had died, Yan Shouyi felt suffocated.
Are all... dead?
Li Genmiao used the golden cicada to escape from her shell, and Yan Shouyi also used the same trick.
Half a month ago, when he went to the Maha Pagoda of Hanshan Temple, he reached an agreement with his evil thoughts.
Let evil thoughts take his place and return to Rongcheng, delaying Jiang Wuya’s footsteps.Create time for the real Yan Shouyi.
On the day of the decisive battle, evil thoughts led everyone in Xuanmen to rise up to resist. At the same time, Yan Shou went up to Changbai Mountain alone, leaving Li Genmiao's clone unable to come back and stop Yan Shouyi's footsteps.
Yan Shouyi also thought that there would be casualties, but he did not expect that everyone would die.
If he could be faster, maybe a few fewer people would die...
The self-blame in his heart made Yan Shouyi hate Li Genmiao in front of him.
He raised the Zhenguo Sword and pierced Li Genmiao’s chest! !
Poof!
Li Genmiao’s real body was extremely fragile. When he was pierced, his expression was twisted in pain, and blood began to flow from the corners of his mouth.
"The powerful Jiang Wuya, but his true form is so fragile, ridiculous, simply ridiculous." Yan Shouyi pulled out the Zhenguo Sword and laughed at Li Genmiao mercilessly.
Li Genmiao had no power to resist and could only stare at Yan Shouyi.
Damn guy!
Only one step away! There is only one final step left in my grand plan for hegemony! !
But in the end...I still lost at the hands of this kid...
"I am not willing to give in...I am not willing to give in!!!" Li Genmiao roared hysterically, Just like in the distant Rongcheng, Lin Zitong screamed hysterically.
Yan Shouyi looked at Li Genmiao indifferently.
This guy has brought too much harm to the world.
Now that the situation has passed, it is time to draw a successful end to this thousand-year entanglement.
Yan Shou raised the Zhenguo Sword and muttered in a low voice: "One sword, ask the sky."
The Zhenguo Sword fell, and Li Genmiao's head fell to the ground.
Jiang Wuya... died! !
The moment Li Genmiao died, the Zhenguo Sword also turned into ashes and was destroyed.
It has completed its mission, and this sword of sin has no reason to stay in the world.
Jiang Wuya, who had lived for thousands of years, finally died in the cold and desolate place of Changbai Mountain, with only the cold water to accompany him.
Yan Shou reached out and found the heart of the sacred peach tree from the coffin, crushing it without hesitation.
At the same time, the sacred peach tree withered, the faceless demon died instantly, and the aura of death that enveloped Xichuan also disappeared.
It’s all over.
After doing all this, Yan ShouyiruRelief.
His body had been seriously injured in the previous battle and was now crumbling.
He sat down holding the coffin, feeling quite happy about returning home after all the vicissitudes of life.
Changbai Mountain is very quiet, just like Yan Shouyi's heart at this time.
"It's over..."
He slowly took out his mobile phone and dialed Lin Zitong's number.
“Well, I’m not dead.”
“Jiang Wuya is dead, everything is over.”
“I will soon Just go home, wait for me... don't cry."
After hanging up the phone, Yan Shouyi was silent for a long time.
He defeated Jiang Wuya.
But lost everyone.
Long Feicheng, Wang Jiwang, A Gong, Luo Ning, Zhao Yiyao, He Xiping...
Liu Yiren, Yuan Jianxin, Zhao Chengxiang, Han San, Chang Shan, Ling Xiaoxiao ......
They all died.
Also.
Dad, grandma.
Yan Shouyi suddenly couldn't control himself, covered his face and cried.
The tears couldn’t stop at all and kept falling.
Defeated Jiang Wuya, but lost everything. Is this considered a victory?
The unprecedented loneliness almost overwhelmed Yan Shouyi.
……
Seven days later.
Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong returned from Xichuan and came to the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain.
They brought back the heart of Heavenly Master Yu Luming.
Yu Luming, who was originally as weak as a disabled person, finally had a trace of blood on his face after regaining his heart.
However, Yu Luming still couldn't get over the hurdle of not being able to participate in the decisive battle and the sacrifices of his fellow Taoists.
Yan Shouyi and Yu Luming sat opposite each other for a long time, neither of them making a sound, as if they were commemorating those who sacrificed together.
“Lao Yu.”
Finally, Yan Shouyi spoke.
"What's wrong?" Yu Luming asked.
“What we said before is still true, right? You will accept my son as your disciple.”
“That is natural, do you want to go back on your word?”
/>
“No, the agreement remains as usual, but the child is still young, at least until he is three years old.It would be better for the two siblings to live with their mother before they are three years old. After the child turns three, Zitong will send Niantong up the mountain. "
Yu Luming was stunned for a moment and discovered the weirdness in Yan Shou's words: "Listen to what you mean, don't you plan to raise the child? Where are you going? "
"I'm going to hell. "Yan Shouyi said in a deep voice.
"What? ! "Yu Luming couldn't control his emotions.
Yan Shouyi lowered his head.
"Xiaolong and the others are all dead, and I can't let go, so I plan to pass Shentao Shu, go to the underworld for a tour. Even if you can't bring them all back, at least... at least, say goodbye to them face to face. ”
Everyone’s death was like a thorn in Yan Shouyi’s heart. Although Lin Zitong comforted him so much, Yan Shouyi could not overcome the hurdle.
He finally Decided to go to the underworld as a living person.
Just to say goodbye properly.
Yu Luming gritted his teeth and said: "How many days do you wait for me? After recovery, I will stay with you! "
"Come on, the world needs you," Yan Shou said with a smile, "We can't just ignore it after we conquered the country, right? You are the leader of the orthodoxy. ”
Now that the Taoist world is no longer hidden from ordinary people, it means that Yu Luming can no longer be a carefree and misty Taoist priest in the mountains.
He has more burdens on his body. The mission.
Yu Luming was very discouraged: “This Heavenly Master is not a good one. ”
“If it’s not appropriate, I’ll pass it on to my son. "
"...So that's what you made. "
"I'm joking," Yan Shouyi said with a smile, "Children have their own destiny. Where Niantong and Siyi will go in the future depends on their own destiny. "
"As a master, I will definitely do my best to cultivate Niantong. You can rest assured of this. ”
The battle at Rongcheng West Lake severely damaged the vitality of the entire Xuanmen, and almost no strong person survived.
This was another disaster for Xuanmen, Many unique skills may be lost in this generation.
But equally, this means that a new era is about to begin.
This era does not belong to Yan Shouyi, It does not belong to Yu Luming, but to the next generation.
The old and the new change, and the cycle goes back and forth, just like the death of the old Tianshi and others, and the fame of Yan Shouyi and others.
In the end, everyone will leave a trace in this world. This traceTraces are called legends.
…
The withered peach tree has a hollow trunk. Viewed from above, it seems to be a bottomless pit at the bottom.
This cave leads to the underworld.
Yan Shou looked at the sacred peach tree for a long time. When he turned around, Lin Zitong was holding the children and guarding behind him.
Yan Niantong and Lin Siyi opened their watery eyes and looked at the peach tree curiously.
As soon as Yan Shou walked forward, the two children recognized their father and stretched out their hands for a hug.
He opened his arms and pushed Lin Zitong into his arms.
"The children miss you very much. Don't let their childhood be without your shadow. Go and come back soon, okay?" Lin Zitong snuggled into Yan Shouyi's arms and said softly.
Yan Shou nodded and hugged Lin Zitong a little harder: "I won't be gone for too long, I promise you."
Lin Zitong knew Yan Shouyi couldn't let go. Why was she like this?
But now the children still need her company, otherwise Lin Zitong will definitely go to the underworld with Yan Shouyi.
Yan Shouyi greedily smelled the fragrance of Lin Zitong's hair, but in the end he let go.
"I'm leaving." He turned around hard.
"Peace." She forced herself to give up.
He finally jumped into the bottomless pit of the sacred peach tree.
The legend has no end.
It’s just starting over in another place.
