The fake daughter robbed me of my luck, and I killed my whole family with my backhand.

"Aren't they just hostages? If you have them, we will have them too."

"Master, who saved your life and raised you since childhood, are you satisfied with this gift?"

Elder Snake said with a smile on his face, and at the same time waved his hand, signaling his men to bring Xuan Muyu forward.

Xuanmuyu must have been given medicine and was in a coma at the moment.

He didn't know whether he had been locked up for too long or he had taken too much medicine. Now his whole face was green and white. If he could not faintly see his chest rising and falling, Shi Qing would almost think that his master Already returned to the west.

Shi Qing's face was cold.

I don't know when the fighting stopped. During the confrontation between the two sides, the scene was completely silent.

I don't know how long it took, but Shi Qing finally took a deep breath to calm down, and said in a cold voice: "What do you want?"

"Of course it's a hostage-for-hostage exchange. You're exchanging the master you love and care about most for our leader. Isn't this a bad deal?"

"how?"

"Change."

One word, concise and concise, while looking sideways at Xie Jiuci.

Xie Jiuci was not surprised by her decision. He immediately pressed the dagger in his hand, raised his chin slightly and said, "You can change, but before exchanging hostages, you must wake them up first."

Elder Snake was quite happy and immediately signaled his men to give Xuanmuyu medicine to detoxify. After a while, Xuanmuyu woke up.

"I……"

Xuan Muyu subconsciously wanted to say something, but as soon as he said the words, someone pushed him hard on his back, and he immediately staggered forward.

Xie Jiuci also held Wen Qingxuan hostage and came forward.

The moment the two sides passed each other, Wen Qingxuan paused, tilted his head slightly and greeted Xuan Muyu with a smile: "Master Xuan."

Xuan Muyu's forehead was filled with questions: "Doctor Wen? You...you...how..."

Xuan Muyu pointed at Xie Jiuci, then at Wen Qingxuan, and finally at the dagger in Xie Jiuci's hand. His head, which was already in chaos, became even more confused.

"He is Di Xuan."

Xie Jiuci said, but these four simple words made Xuan Mu's body tremble, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Xie Jiuci escorted Wen Qingxuan forward again, and Elder Long, who was responsible for escorting Xuanmuyu, also took steps again. Xuanmuyu stared blankly and approached Shi Qing step by step.

"Master? Master?"

A familiar call came into his ears, and Xuan Muyu said "Ah" before slowly coming back to his senses. However, his raised eyes seemed to be flashing with a complex color that Shi Qing had never seen before and could not understand. .

"Master?"

Shi Qing called out again, and received a soft response from Xuan Muyu, and a murmur so low that Shi Qing could only see her lips moving but not hear the sound.

It seems to be saying: "Xiao Qing, Master is sorry for you..."

sorry?

Why are you sorry?

She was the one who should say sorry.

It was she who dragged down the master and made him lose the ability to protect himself.

It was her failure to protect her master that gave the people of the Imperial Alliance an opportunity.

is her……

A sharp pain came from his chest, interrupting Shi Qing's somewhat wandering thoughts.

She lowered her head, and a gleaming dagger and a large area of ​​bright red came into view. Following the dagger, she saw a face that was all too familiar, but at this moment, it looked a bit unreal.

"Master..."

The blood was draining and the strength was fading, but Shi Qing just looked at the eyes filled with countless emotions in front of him, and shouted again, softly and lowly.

Xuan Muyu was also looking at her. As his lips moved, he seemed to say something, but Shi Qing could no longer hear clearly. She slowly closed her eyes.

"Congratulations on the return of the old alliance leader!"

Shanhu's tsunami-like shouts rang out, covering up Xuan Muyu's whispers and Xie Jiuci's almost broken "Qingqing!"

Looking at the slender figure slowly sliding down, Xie Jiuci's eyes were filled with rich blood.

"Qingqing!"

He shouted again, and at the same time he flew out like a bolt of lightning, and held Shi Qing tightly in his arms before he landed.

"attack!"

Elder Snake's order was issued, and a group of people from the Imperial Alliance who were already excited immediately rushed forward like wild dogs that had escaped the reins, struggling to kill the intruders.

In contrast, everyone in Yun Yi's team and Shi Qing's subordinates who followed Xie Jiuci lost the opportunity because they panicked, and Fang fell into a passive defensive state as soon as they fought.

Especially the five lonely, empty and cold people who were Shi Qing's confidants. They looked at Shi Qing who seemed to be lifeless in Xie Jiuci's arms, and their faces turned pale.

The situation is extremely serious.

But at this moment, Xie Jiuci could no longer care about this. All he could see was Shi Qing.

An unprecedented panic swept through his heart, taking away his usual calmness, along with all his sanity.

The red eyes lost focus little by little, until at a certain moment, they turned into darkness.

He hugged Shi Qing and slowly stood up.

A gust of wind rose out of the sky, throwing all the fighting parties into the air, and disappeared without a trace the next moment. Everyone immediately fell like dumplings out of the pot, and hit the ground hard.

The black evil aura and the Hongmeng purple aura that were as strong as the substance rose into the sky, completely enveloping Xie Jiuci and Shi Qing in them. At the same time, it also built an invisible bridge between Xie Jiuci and Tiandao.

The next moment, there was lightning and thunder, and the mountains collapsed and the earth cracked!
