   🔥🌸🦋Chapter 1 Murder and Seize a Child In the short courtyard of Jiangninghou Mansion in the Zhou Dynasty. A woman wearing green clothes was dragged on the snow. In the white snow, the blood behind her was as bright as a red ribbon. The woman was thrown next to a fire set up in the snow. She was already dying. Blood was oozing from her knees and forehead. An iron nail as long as a finger was driven into her eye. The eyeball exploded and blood oozed out. It was indescribably terrifying. Her whole body was covered with whip marks, her clothes were torn and her flesh was exposed, and her skin was ripped open by blood marks. What's even more shocking is that her belly is bulging, showing that she is seven or eight months pregnant.

   "Qingxuan's Floating Dream" (you can read the full text on Tomato) Chapter 40 A heavy rain wasted the vitality of all things. Chen Qi held a sword in one hand and stood in the rain, waiting for the approaching figure. The blurry outline gradually became clear in front of Chen Qi's eyes. The girl who once smiled like a flower, the tenderness she once wanted to protect, Chen Qi knew she would lose soon. "Xiao Qi, you are lazy again!" "Of course I believe Xiao Qi!" "We are family!" ... Everything in the past was like a sharp sword, piercing Chen Qi's body. The bloody pain almost made Chen Qi's face distorted. Under the cold rain, Chen Qi felt that his body had lost its temperature. "Senior sister!" Chen Qi's voice was a little hoarse. She knew that this might be the last time she called her. "Xiao Qi, I had another dream last night. I lost to you again in Meng Qingtang's sword test." Meng Qingxuan had a warm smile on his lips, and his expression was calm and gentle, just like when they first met. Chen Qi's missing heart ached, and Meng Qingxuan like this made her feel so distressed: "Those are all dreams I constructed for you, so why linger on unrealistic things." Meng Qingxuan shook his head as if he hadn't heard anything, and still said with a faint smile: "Go back to Meng Qingtang for me when you have time, I left you a gift." The indifference on Meng Qingxuan's face made Chen Qi extremely angry. Even at this time, she still didn't know how to worry about herself. "I don't have time. How on earth can you understand your situation!" Chen Qi didn't want to talk to Meng Qingxuan anymore. The sword in his hand formed a powerful air blade. In the past years of entering Chenyan Pavilion, Chen Qi had never shown his true strength in front of others. The air around him suddenly turned cold, and the end of the sword glowed. The whole forest was darkened by the pressure of his mind. The raindrops stopped suddenly in the air and condensed instantly. Chen Qi quickly dodged and flew towards the person opposite. After a few rounds, Chen Qi clearly felt that the person on the opposite side was exhausted, and the master's every move was fatal. Meng Qingxuan had extraordinary abilities, but compared to Chen Qi, she was still too weak after all. The sword energy condensed in Chen Qi's hand, and she knew that everything would be over in the next second. Looking at the stunning face in front of her, the sword in her hand paused for a few moments, and she couldn't help but recall the conversation she had with Meng Qingxuan in the cell two days ago. Memories---- "They gave me two choices, you and Chenyan Pavilion. Guess who I chose?" "Do you think you still have a choice?" Meng Qingxuan moved his messy hair, his gentle eyes remained the same. Looking at Meng Qingxuan, Chen Qi sighed helplessly: "You should hate me." "Hate?" Meng Qingxuan chuckled, "I want to hate you too, so that I can at least feel better, but what else can I do? I still have nothing. In troubled times, how many people can completely protect themselves? You are just trying to survive." "You are always so kind, but the world is unpredictable. After so much, why have you not grown up?" Chen Qi said slightly angrily. "Growth? Do I still have a chance?" Meng Qingxuan smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "The world is unkind and treats all things as stupid dogs. I have no way out!" "What if!" Chen Qi's tone softened, "Do I still have a chance?" Meng Qingxuan's eyes suddenly became clear, and he shook his head and said: "No, you are so smart, you will not see through such a situation, let alone do such stupid things." Chen Qi raised his eyebrows in a funny way. If he was really smart, he wouldn't save her in such a unnecessary way. "Qingxuan is not a killing sword. He has been looking for a real owner for hundreds of years. Everyone in the world thinks that I, the inheritor of the Meng Qingtang family's bloodline, is its owner. But in fact, we are just its guardians. Although we can use it, it still has a long history. It has been waiting for someone who can exert its true power, and what it is waiting for is you. Xiaoqi, this world needs stability. It is enough for you and me to repeat our lives. Since heaven and earth have given you such ability, you should do something for this world. " "Hahaha!" Chen Qi laughed. "You can't even save your own life, and you still worry about the world. You have forgotten that I am not you. My hands are covered with blood. The greatest pleasure is to watch others suffer, but you are here to persuade me to be kind. How ridiculous, how ridiculous!" "Is it ridiculous? Do you remember that morning? I sat all night just waiting for the first ray of light. Think about how beautiful that first ray of light is! There is no light in hell, go and see the world! I believe that the Xiao Qi I know is kind-hearted, but her life is a bit miserable, and she is always trying to find a way to survive. I believe that she will save the people of this world, and I believe that she will give this world a peaceful life." Meng Qingxuan's tone was firm, and Chen Qi was a little overwhelmed by that sense of firmness, so he had to turn around gently to face Meng Qingxuan. "That's not the path I want to take!" "That's my path!" Meng Qingxuan took Chen Qi's words and paused. "I can only go to the beginning of this path. I hope you can help me finish it. Living is good, but living like this is not suitable for you!" "Since it is the path you want to take, then you can walk on your own, why bother to impose it on others. Maybe I will help you, you don't know!" Chen Qi said lightly. "No!" Meng Qingxuan was a little excited. "If I had a chance, how could I put it on you? Xiaoqi, you are so smart, don't you understand what you mean to Chenyan Pavilion? Don't make unnecessary sacrifices. From the moment I entered Chenyan Pavilion, I was destined to die. They kept me until today only because of you. There should be a battle between you and me." "You!" Chen Qi turned to look at Meng Qingxuan, his eyes met hers, and he swallowed back the words he blurted out. After a long silence, he said, "I will give you a fair death!" "Okay!" Meng Qingxuan responded with a smile. Chen Qi asked the master of Chenyan Pavilion for a fight. She knew she had no choice but to comply. End of memory---- "What are you waiting for? You shouldn't hesitate." Meng Qingxuan's soft voice brought Chen Qi back to reality. After all, Chen Qi still couldn't do it. The murderous aura aroused by the powerful thought power disappeared with the wind like her falling heart. "Xiao Qi, we are living in this troubled world so much that we cannot help ourselves. We have no way to abandon the pain of displacement and the broken dreams. Kill me and use my life to give yourself a chance to choose." "Why me?" "Because you took away my Qingxuan. Just let me be selfish for once!" "I will not avenge you!" "It doesn't matter. Hatred has no meaning to a dying person!" Chen Qi raised his face to look at the sky, and a drop of rain fell into his eyes, feeling a little bitter, a little cold, and a little helpless. "You once asked me what the meaning of "leaving green" is? You should be optimistic today, I will only use this move this time." Chen Qi raised the sword in his hand, and for a moment, the sky and the earth surged. The changing wind and clouds stirred up thunder and a loud noise. The sky and the earth returned to color, and the raindrops fell again. Everything was calm. The sword shed drops of blood under the erosion of the rain. Chen Qi turned his back to Meng Qingxuan and firmly grasped the sword in his hand. He seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be saying to her: "My real name is 'Yao Zhi'."
