After being picked up by Daxian

The luthier heard Xue Jiang's words, but there was no movement on his face, only a slight movement of his fingertips, the red light in the emperor's eyes became more intense, and he swooped towards the two of them.

He only felt the familiar strong devilish energy attacking, Hengqing and Xue Jiang retreated to the two sides flexibly, and after a closer look, they found that the emperor exuded a strong purple-black devilish energy, which seemed to be demonized.

"Don't worry, he was just manipulated by the puppet's demon energy, and he was not really demonized."

The emperor, who had just attacked the two of them just now, was now like a vigilant hound, waiting in front of the luthier, waiting for an opportunity, as if he wanted to protect the people behind him.

"I see...you know we can't hurt Xue Yijin, so are you going to use him as a shield?" Xue Jiang narrowed his eyes slightly, with a half-smile on his face.

When Xue Yijin heard her real name, the red light in her eyes flickered slightly hesitantly.

However, Si Ling frowned and flipped her fingers. Xue Yijin's gaze returned to emptiness again, and she just stayed by Si Ling's side, watching their actions.

Under the stalemate, an ice-blue beam of light melted from Xue Jiang's hand, and hit Si Ling first.

Si Ling only turned her body slightly to avoid the celestial light.Then the beam of ice edges like a sharp blade flew towards Si Ling like a rain of swords, but Xue Yijin blocked them one by one.

Seeing Heng holding up the flute, the corners of Si Ling's mouth curled up slightly, and her pale snow-like fingertips pressed the strings of the ice silkworm, only to hear a clang, and the illusory sound made both of them dizzy at the same time. For a moment, the steady body breath also became slightly messy.

After waking up, Hengqing hurriedly played the flute, which was offset by the clear and graceful flute sound of Biyou.All of a sudden, a situation where the emerald green aura and the red and black demonic aura were facing each other formed.

Xuejiang wanted to break through Xue Yijin's defense several times, using all the tricks he could get rid of Xue Yijin.However, he was like a dog's skin plaster, he couldn't get rid of it no matter what, but he just stood firm in front of Si Ling.

"Damn..."

Xue Jiang, who was restrained everywhere, couldn't help giving Si Ling a hard look.This stinky luthier definitely did it on purpose. In this narrow palace, it is impossible for him to use his fists, let alone hurt Xue Yijin who has been eroded by the devilish energy...

As if sensing Xue Jiang's gaze, a scornful smile appeared in Si Ling's eyes, and the piano sound under his fingertips became even more urgent.

And Xue Yijin seemed to be affected, and the red magic light in his eyes became more and more intense.

"Oops, under the influence of that puppet, Xue Yijin has a tendency to become demonized..."

Hengqing hurriedly mobilized her spiritual power, flipped the jade flute in her hand, and bursts of dim light rippled towards Xue Yijin, who was already a little abnormal, trying to clear his mind.

However, Si Ling's piano sound was so strong that it forced Hengqing's Lingbo back.

"No way... Your Majesty, I can only offend you!"

There was only a flash of cold blade light, but after two or three strides, Xue Jiang forced towards Xue Yijin.Countless ice particles flew from the snow-falling blade wind, and Xue Yijin was forced to retreat a few steps, as if entering an ice cave, her limbs were frozen and stiff.

Xue Yijin's speed slowed down a bit, and Hengqing flew out a chain of ice soul fairy, which locked Xue Yijin's whole body firmly.Xue Yijin roared wildly like a beast trapped in a cage, trying to get rid of the shackles on his body.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Si Ling frowned, put away the Yaoqin, and was about to break through the window and escape.

Xue Jiang didn't allow him to have this chance, he just flicked his fingertips lightly, and before Si Ling had time to defend, a ray of immortal light suddenly hit the Tongmu Yaoqin.

Under the impact, the paulownia qin vibrated violently, and broke apart suddenly, and the red and black devilish energy that had been covering it all dissipated.

Like a deflated sack, the light in Si Ling's eyes flickered for a moment, and then, like an extinguished candle, it turned into hollow blackness, collapsed on the ground, and did not move again.

And at the loose neckline, there is clearly a strange red and black mark on the neck.

Before she had time to think about it, Hengqing couldn't help loosening the restraint on Xue Yijin.

As soon as the restraint was loosened, Xue Yijin's mind immediately recovered, and the red light in his eyes completely disappeared.After only being absent-minded for a moment, he came back to his senses when he saw Heng Qing and Xue Jiang.

Recalling what happened just now, Xue Yijin's gaze suddenly turned to where Si Ling was.

When he shivered and crawled towards the empty shell that had lost its soul, he slowly embraced the body as if treating a very precious object.

I saw his expression mourning and his body twitching endlessly.The king of a country suddenly burst into tears like a child.

"...Si Ling!"

I vaguely remember that when he was not in power, he was just an idler son who only knew how to travel around and make his father shake his head and sigh.

At that time, he naively made a wish, that is, to travel all over the world's mountains and rivers, roam freely in this life, and walk happily and unrestrainedly.

And he met Si Ling during an accidental travel.The amazing song made Xue Yijin pluck up the courage to talk to Si Ling.

Just as natural as mountains and rivers, they share the same understanding of music, understanding of qin music, and then they know each other and cherish each other, and finally they become brothers and bosom friends.

However, what neither of them expected was that it was a chance meeting that not only changed the trajectory of their fate, but also became Si Ling's calamity in this life.

He doesn't want to inherit the throne, he just wants to be an idle prince.However, things backfired.The dispute between brothers has always involved him.

Conspiracy, assassination, deception... the only thing that can comfort him is the sound of Si Ling's piano.

Therefore, after ascending to the throne, he tried every means of coercion and lure, but he was afraid that Si Ling would not agree.

However, when Xue Yijin was about to use all his strength, unexpectedly, the man only smiled slightly and replied "Yes".

However, while he was happy, he didn't see the loss and pain hidden in the man's eyes.

He knew very well that Si Ling was trapped in this cold and complicated curtain of power and palace, and that he, who was naturally free, would only become more and more depressed, but he still stubbornly refused to let it go.

He thought he had done his best to give Si Ling the best life.

However, he forgot that material things were never what he really wanted for Si Ling.

So, until the end, he still couldn't see Si Ling's hearty smile at the beginning...

That young man named Si Ling once said with a conceited smile that he wanted to play unique piano music for all the mountains and rivers in this world.

The boy who was always dressed in white once said sincerely to him that he wanted to play a lifetime of music for his only bosom friend.

The once proud young man once said to him sadly that he missed the freedom he once had, and he missed the days when the two of them roamed the mountains and rivers.

Although he was highly respected in the palace, what he felt was endless loneliness and coldness.

There was a time when Bo Ya died because of the death of his bosom friend.

Now "Ziqi" is still alive, but "Bo Ya" has passed away...

With tears in his eyes, the figure in white appeared in front of his eyes.

Xue Yijin hurriedly stretched out his hand, trying to grab that illusory figure.The young man with a blurred face seemed to have a smile on his face.

"Yijin, I'm sorry, we have to go the rest of the way by ourselves. It's time for me too, it's time to find my own freedom..."

"Si Ling, I know, it's all my fault. So, I can do whatever you want, I just ask you to come back... Si Ling, come back!"

Seeing that the emperor stretched out his hand in the direction of no one, grasping something feebly, his face was full of tears and his mind was out of control, the two of them just silently exited the hall.

The moment the palace door was closed, Xue Yijin's hoarse echo seemed to be heard: "Si Ling..."

On the way back, Hengqing suddenly said: "Unexpectedly, the weak point of that puppet is actually that paulownia qin..."

"I was just trying. After all, I am a generation of talented luthiers. Such a person who loves the qin can play such exquisite qin music. I must have integrated my own obsession into the qin. And this is what made the puppet The key to the last sliver of sanity."

"I'm afraid the emperor can't withstand such a big blow. After all, we defeated the luthier in front of him. Although, the luthier has long been a puppet manipulated by others. The luthier who loves freedom so much has to be human in the end Manipulation, really..."

"Isn't it just like us?"

Xue Jiang stopped suddenly, turned his head and said to Heng Qing.

Seeing that the person in front of him stopped, Heng Qing couldn't help being stunned. "What?"

"Whether it's the emperor or the luthier, they can't get rid of the tricks of fate. And we, who are bound by the rules of the heaven, are not as good as them. We are also ants who cannot be free, and are controlled and bound by the heaven..."

Xue Jiang stared at Hengqing intently, that torch-like gaze actually made Hengqing start to feel flustered for no reason.

"While we lament the fate of mortals, we don't know ourselves, but we can't escape the fate of fate. We will be alone forever, and we will never be loved."

Like a boulder, Xue Jiang's words weighed on Hengqing's heart, making him almost out of breath. "Xuejiang, let's stop discussing this issue, I—"

The shoulder was held down by Xue Jiang, the man's face suddenly approached, and suddenly hit his eyes.

No longer the confident air of the past, Xue Jiang's expression was full of sadness and bitterness.And that always proud and cold gaze was actually humble at this time.

"Even if I have eternal life, I can't be with you. Then what's the use of me being this tasteless fairy!"

There was a loud thunder from outside the sky, and the clear night sky was actually flashed with dazzling lightning.

Hengqing hastily covered Xuejiang's lips that were still about to speak, and said in panic, "Xuejiang, are you crazy!"

"That's right, I'm crazy! I'm here, and I'm going to tell God—"

Before the words were finished, I felt a burst of tenderness pressing against my lips.The person who was so gentle in the past actually bit his lip, and the bloody smell of rust permeated between their lips and teeth.

Seeing that person coming to the door, Xue Jiang was not polite, his domineering lips swept into Heng Qing's mouth without showing any weakness.Like trapped animals wrestling in a cage, the two of them didn't seem to be kissing, but were chasing and fighting evenly.

Countless lightning flashed across the sky, as bright as day, and the terrible thunder continued.

There was a "bang" sound, and in an instant, heavy rain fell, and both of them were trapped in the heavy rain curtain.
