C246 Tian Gou Is Not Here

Hou Jian's laughter was miserable. In his dry laughter, there was grief, indignation, and frustration. Suddenly, he coughed out a mouthful of blood.

He struggled, wiping away the blood at the corner of his mouth, and said with a bitter smile, "It really is fate that makes fools of people. "

Duan Tianya found a relatively intact chair and sat down. At this moment, they didn't seem to be enemies, but more like friends that he hadn't seen for many years.

Duan Tianya sighed and said. "Why do you have to do this?"

"Why do you have to do this?" Hou Jian smiled bitterly again and said, "Right now, I can understand the feelings of the Nine-Life Cat Bai Sheng the most. "

"Him?" Duan Tianya was puzzled and asked, "How does he feel?"

Hou Jian coughed and said slowly, "I can feel his unwillingness. "

Duan Tianya said, "Actually, you do not have to do such a thing. "

Hou Jian laughed loudly. His laughter sounded more like crying. "I don't have Xuan Zhengchen's money, Xiao Chen's coldness, Yaen Shunba's mysteriousness, and Yang Yunjing's ambition. Even my talent was defeated by Bai Sheng. God is really unfair!"

"The heavens are fair!" Duan Tianya said seriously, "At least you are much luckier than Woo Sian. "

"But he is dead! He is a dead man!" Hou Jian was a little hysterical.

"But he is worthy of all of our respect!"

This sentence seemed to have poked Hou Jian's sore spot as he shouted. "Is it that only death can gain other people's respect?"

Everyone was silent. What was more important than what was in front of them and what was behind them? How many people could argue with each other? At least, they had to do a lot of useful things when they were alive. Only after they died could they gain respect from others.

The sky gradually darkened, and the final sun had been submerged. Three Paths Ridge seemed exceptionally quiet at this moment. They could not feel the brutal killings during the day, except for the corpses in front of them.

"You can leave now!" Duan Tianya blurted out these words.

Hou Jian was shocked and asked, "Why?"

Duan Tianya said, "You didn't get anything either. "

Hou Jian regained his calm. At this moment, he still seemed to be the silent Hou Jian. He said slowly, "I originally planned to use the power of Half-moon Manor to kill all of you so that my name could be known by the world. It seems like. . . It's my fault. It was because I thought too simply. "

Duan Tianya said, "There are a lot of things. It's not necessarily a bad thing to think too simply. Besides, your name has already been known by everyone in the world. "

Hou Jian said, "What I want is for everyone to know about it. No one will not know about it!"

Duan Tianya said, "You can start from scratch. "

"Starting from scratch?" Hou Jian shook his head helplessly and said, "There are many things that cannot be done from scratch, just like the current me. "

"You can leave! Just pretend that you have never been here today. " Duan Tianya insisted.

Hou Jian said, "I don't need anyone's sympathy and forgiveness. " He used the long hook in his hand to cut open his chest.

Everyone was startled. Duan Tianya leapt forward and arrived in front of Hou Jian. He said with regret: "Why do you have to do this?"

Hou Jian smiled bitterly. Tears flowed down from the corner of his eyes. He whispered to Duan Tianya, "When I revealed the Qingning Temple, my crime was unforgivable!"

Duan Tianya was stunned. He wanted to say something, but he heard Hou Jian muttering. "I was wrong. . . " Then he stopped breathing.

Duan Tianya finally understood why the Half-moon Manor was able to find the Qingning Temple. It must be because Hou Jian accidentally found out about it when he was in the Golden Snake Hall. Perhaps, when he found out that all the monks in the Qingning Temple were killed, he regretted it, but it was too late.

Duan Tianya didn't tell Fiend Monk the truth. Sometimes, it was better to know nothing.

Everything returned to peace. This was how the Jianghu was. It had been peaceful for more than ten years, and it had been restless for decades.

Wei Zan returned to the Northern Desert. He had come here. It was just to return the favor. Now that the two of them did not owe each other anything, it could be considered as his good name.

The Zhu brothers were now by Duan Tianya's side, which could be considered as fulfilling Liao Qingshu's last wish.

As for Fiend Monk, after this incident, he ate abstinence and prayed for Buddha, converted to Buddhism, and cultivated himself in Qingning Temple. He put aside the massacre and no longer cared about the matters of the Jianghu.

Looking at the closed doors of the Qingning Temple, Duan Tianya sighed with emotion in his heart. "This might be his best fate. "

As for Yang Yunjing and Lin Zhuo, it was widely known that they had escaped to the Southern Five Sects.

Duan Tianya asked everyone to return to the Yuen's Mansion, but he stayed behind because he wanted to find someone. That person was Dugu Qingping.

The road to Demon Soul Gang was long and familiar. Duan Tianya found an inn to stay in. As soon as he entered, he heard a table full of customers discussing. One of them said, "The battle in Three Paths Ridge was earth-shattering. Yang Yunjing and Lin Zhuo were forced into a corner and joined the Southern Five Sects. "

"Yo! Duan Tianya and the others are really powerful. "

"Exactly! It was said that even the unworldly experts of Miao Frontier were in awe of Duan Tianya. "

Duan Tianya couldn't help but find it funny. What they said was as if they had seen it with their own eyes. Even if he passed by them, he wouldn't be able to recognize them. People of the Jianghu were like this, they liked to play tricks on others.

However, what attracted Duan Tianya's attention wasn't the flattering words of these people, but the four people in the corner.

Among these four people, two were dressed in tight black clothes, while the other two were dressed in camouflage. Looking at the treasured swords in their hands, these four people must be peerless experts who used swords.

Duan Tianya looked at them, and they also saw Duan Tianya. Their eyes met, and their gazes were all fixed on each other's swords.

Without saying a word, Duan Tianya tried to guess who they were, but he had no idea at all. Looking around the martial world, he could not find any memories of these four people, even if Duan Tianya had photographic memory.

Outside the Demon Soul Gang, the autumn wind was blowing. Duan Tianya was standing outside the door. Before he could take a step, the door opened. Lee Jingyun looked at him with a smile and said, "The Sect Master said so. You are right. You will come and find him. "

"Oh? He knew I would come?"

Lee Jingyun said, "Of course! I have been waiting for you for a long time, but if you want to see my Sect Master, it depends on how many moves you can take. "

The saber was as fast as lightning, and it caught Duan Tianya by surprise. He hurriedly jumped up, but before he could land on the ground, he saw Lee Jingyun's saber approaching him again. Helpless, he could only draw his sword out of the sheath. He wanted to meet this young man with the fast blade.

Lee Jingyun's blade technique was really good. It was much better than Wei Zan's. However, the two of them had only exchanged thirty moves. Lee Jingyun stopped attacking and smiled. "As expected, Sect Leader was right. Your sword technique is indeed rarely matched. "

Duan Tianya said, "I came this time to thank your leader for saving me. I am not here to challenge you. "

Lee Jingyun was startled and said, "You know that the hundreds of cavalry were arranged by my Sect Master. "

Duan Tianya nodded and said, "Except for Dugu Qingping, there is no one else who wants me to die in other people's hands. "

"You are very smart, but this time, you will not be able to see my Sect Master. "

Duan Tianya asked, "Why?"
