"What a great opportunity." Knowing that Tao Jingyi had drawn Duan Feibai this time, Xia Mingyuan looked excited, "At that time, you will stand in front of him, lift your veil and mask on the spot, I can guarantee that he will I fell off the stage in shock. What a chance to win without a fight."
Tao Jingyi shook his head: "To be honest, I don't have the courage to stand in front of him yet."
"Did you really not reveal it last time?" With Duan Feibai's temperament, Xia Mingyuan could hardly believe that he was just fooled.
Tao Jingyi still shook his head: "I don't know, he didn't come to see me anyway."
Xia Mingyuan couldn't persuade her, so he didn't try to persuade her any more. He just sat in the corner and cursed Duan Feibai once. It turned out that when Duan Feibai was fighting against Shen Rou today, he was sitting in the audience and started a gamble. He originally planned to make a fortune and bet half of his net worth on Shen Rou. The result can be imagined.
Xia Mingyuan, who almost lost his underwear, gritted his teeth and hated Duan Feibai.
"You said, Shen Rou is so beautiful and gentle, and I wrote it specially for him, but he doesn't show any pity at all." Xia Mingyuan was indignant.
Tao Jingyi felt a little sympathetic to him, but mostly wanted to laugh. Who could have imagined that the plot would collapse like this.
"You must win tomorrow, and the remaining half of my wealth is betting on you." Xia Mingyuan said earnestly.
Tao Jingyi was silent, and suggested: "Why don't you bet on Duan Feibai..."
"I won't!" Xia Mingyuan fought Duan Feibai.
After Xia Mingyuan left, Tao Jingyi stood under the moon for a while. The moonlight is bright and clear, and frost is sprinkled all over the ground. No matter how time and space flow, this round of bright moon is eternally bright. I don't know who is looking at the moon with her at this time.
Tao Jingyi withdrew his gaze and left under the moonlight.
Not far behind her, a figure flashed through the window.
***
The autumn wind was rustling, rolling the withered grass all over the sky. On the high stage of the martial arts competition, Tao Jingyi held a long sword in his hand, his body tensed slightly, and stood in front of Duan Feibai.
Duan Feibai was looking at her.
Look at her intently.
Tao Jingyi looked calm on the surface, but his heart was already extremely panicked. She confirmed over and over again that her ugly mask was stuck to her face, and the veil was also on her face.
Even so, she was still flustered, this was an instinctive reaction to Duan Feibai, her body was trembling uncontrollably.
Duan Feibai stood with his back to the sunlight, a golden halo covered his body, from Tao Jingyi's angle, he couldn't see his expression clearly, but his eyes were like sharp arrows.
The autumn wind brushed his pure white clothes, making a rustling sound. Tao Jingyi's eyes gradually moved down and landed on his clothes, not daring to meet his gaze.
Even if a beauty like Shen Rou stood in front of Duan Feibai, Duan Feibai would not be moved. After three tricks, he let the girl out.
In terms of appearance and martial arts, in the eyes of everyone in the audience, Tao Jingyi was not the slightest bit comparable to Shen Rou. Many people yawned, guessing that Tao Jingyi would be eliminated within a few strokes.
One move, no more...
If she can survive one move, they will lose.
Tao Jingyi was also estimating how many ways he would get out of the game. After all, he came to power on behalf of Xijiange. Xijiange had not dealt well with the Tianshan faction these years. If he lost too badly, he would lose Xijiange's face.
Be decent, remember to be decent. Tao Jingyi muttered to himself, took a deep breath, pulled out the blade, and threw the scabbard aside.
Duan Feibai also drew out the long sword in his hand, Tao Jingyi noticed that he was carrying his Love Severing Sword today.
After Duan Feibai drew his sword, everyone in the audience was suspicious. Because with Tao Jingyi's skill, he didn't need to draw a sword to defeat her.
Could it be because of the grievances between Tianshan faction and Xijiange over the years, Duan Feibai planned to use the martial arts competition to avenge his personal revenge? Many people were taken aback by this idea.
Impossible, Duan Feibai is a well-known modest gentleman, he would not do such despicable things.
Then, why did he draw his sword at this girl? Could there be some deep hatred between them?
A little girl, what kind of hatred could Qin Jianshuang have against her?
A gust of autumn wind blows towards Tao Jingyi's veil, and as a corner of the veil is lifted, the scar on Tao Jingyi's right face is faintly visible.
Tao Jingyi hurriedly raised his hand to press the veil.
Many people saw the scar on her cheek, and they were all stunned.
There are also many women who cover their faces with veils when walking in the rivers and lakes, so as not to cause unnecessary troubles, such as love debts. So when everyone saw Tao Jingyi wearing a veil, they didn't take it seriously. They never thought that the face under this veil was so terrifying.
This is not simply ugly to describe.
Everyone's eyes wandered between Tao Jingyi and Duan Feibai.
There seemed to be something wrong, with good eyesight, one could even detect that Duan Feibai, who had always been calm and composed, lost his composure when looking at this girl.
After Tao Jingyi finished pressing the veil, he stretched out his hand to Duan Feibai and made a "please" gesture, which meant, let's start the war.
Duan Feibai didn't move at all, just looked at her deeply, with a strange light flowing in his eyes: "Dare to ask girl, have we met before?"
Tao Jingyi was taken aback, wondering why Duan Feibai asked this question, did he already recognize her?
A chill passed through her heart, she was startled and frightened, but she pretended to be calm, coughed lightly, suppressed her voice, and said hoarsely: "Mr. Duan, why did you say that?"
"To be honest, I fell in love with the girl at first sight. If I have never seen her before, where does this feeling of deja vu come from?"
"Master, you are joking. There are countless similar people in this world. You may have misunderstood someone."
"Really?" Although Duan Feibai was smiling, there was a bit of bleakness in the smile, "I probably misidentified the person. If the girl meets a person who looks like you one day, please replace me Send a word."
Tao Jingyi was silent, and said, "Say it."
"Is the last sentence you said to me true?" Duan Feibai's voice was very low, and it was easily blown away by the wind.
But Tao Jingyi could still hear it clearly, she was stunned. What is the last sentence?
Tao Jingyi looked dazed, recalling the last sentence he said to Duan Feibai in his mind, the last sentence should have been said before the cliff.
At that time, she thought it was her farewell to him, so she said—
"Actually, I liked you a lot before I met you."
The sunlight tilted an inch, and the golden light was dazzling, pulling Tao Jingyi's thoughts back from the cliff. She stared blankly at Duan Feibai in front of her, and wanted to tell him that it was true.
As a reader, she really liked the role of Duan Feibai, whether he dominates the world or retires, she hopes that he can live happily until old age.
She opened her mouth and almost said the answer. The autumn wind brushed her cheeks, bringing a burst of coolness, which brought her back to her senses, she swallowed the original words back into her throat, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, if you meet the person you mentioned, I will definitely ask you about it." One word."
The light in Duan Feibai's eyes gradually went out, even if he stood in the sunlight, he couldn't resist the coolness in his heart.
He already knew her answer.
His dark eyes were full of disappointment, and he raised the sword in his hand towards Tao Jingyi.
Tao Jingyi didn't realize it until the sword light hit his cheek, and quickly raised his sword to block.
This is public revenge! Properly avenge private revenge!
Tao Jingyi waved the blade in his hand, blocking Duan Feibai's stabbing sword. The speed of Duan Feibai's sword is not fast, she can clearly see every move of his, from the thrust to the fall, what move is used, where is the purpose, can be seen clearly with the naked eye.
So she took every sword.
Tao Jingyi was out of breath, and looked at him with a little shame.
Duan Feibai was teasing her.
He could have kicked her off the stage with one move, but he didn't do that. He was like a cat catching a mouse. He clearly had the chance to win, but he purposely gave her a chance to breathe, hanging her up and down like this.
Not long after, a layer of hot sweat broke out on Tao Jingyi's forehead. She was panting heavily, and her cheeks were flushed under the veil.
She increased the speed of the sword, using the "Swallow Killing" method Dongfang Yue taught her, and the speed was twice as fast as usual.
She tried her best so that even if she was kicked off stage by Duan Feibai, she would still be a decent loser.
But things were still out of her control.
Just after she stabbed out the long sword, her blade seemed to be sucked by a strange force, and she could only follow Duan Feibai's sword move away. The moment the two swords collided, silver sparks came out, and Duan Feibai pressed against her body, breathing warmly against her ears.
When her body fell backwards uncontrollably, a force suddenly came from her waist, which gave her a timely support. Because of this force, her body leaned forward slightly, and the long sword in her hand stabbed out.
puff-
It was the sound of sharp blades tearing through flesh and blood.
Tao Jingyi's eyes widened in disbelief, looking along the blade of the sword.
The other end of the sword had already sunk into Duan Feibai's chest.
The moment the sharp knife pierced the flesh, bright red blood rushed out of the wound, and soon a huge blood flower bloomed on Duan Feibai's chest.
Blood trickled down the blade of the sword and fell at Duan Feibai's feet.
Duan Feibai raised his eyes to look at her, different from his pale face, his eyes were full of smiles.
When he pressed Tao Jingyi's ear just now, he said something to her.
He said: "I owe you a sword, I will pay you back."
Tao Jingyi didn't have time to think about the meaning of this sentence, the long sword in his hand was sent by the force from his waist, and it pierced Duan Feibai's chest impartially.
It wasn't until this moment that she realized what that sentence meant.
Duan Feibai's face was as pale as paper, and Tao Jingyi was not much better. Seeing the blood stained his white clothes little by little, the autumn wind sent a strong smell of blood to her nose. For a moment, she was in chaos, She just felt that the sword in her hand was so hot that she almost couldn't hold it.
The long arms hidden in the sleeves couldn't help trembling slightly.
At this moment, there was an uproar under the martial arts stage.
Just now the moves of the two on the stage were already extremely weird, but they didn't expect the result of this contest to be even more weird.
Since playing, Duan Feibai, who had never missed a single shot, was stabbed by an ugly little girl with mediocre martial arts.
There are tricks, there are definitely tricks!
"Master! Master, are you alright?" The disciples of the Tianshan Sect were stunned by this scene, and it took a while to realize that it was their master, Duan Feibai, who was injured.
They quickly rushed onto the Wutai stage.
Tao Jingyi's mind was in chaos, holding the long sword in his hand, he didn't pull it out, he didn't pull it out, he just stared at Duan Feibai in a daze, separated by a sword.
A trace of cold sweat broke out on Duan Feibai's forehead due to the pain, and his lips were pale due to blood loss, but his smile didn't decrease at all, on the contrary, it became stronger and stronger. Just looking at Tao Jingyi like that, it seemed that he couldn't get enough of it.
He stretched out his hand, grabbed the blade of the sword, and while Tao Jingyi was in a daze, pulled the sword out of his chest. The sharp blade cut his palm, and the bright red blood flowed down his palm, dyeing his sleeves deep red.
Duan Feibai's body swayed violently, the blazing sun above his head made him dizzy, and even his vision was blurred for a while. In the blurred vision, Tao Jingyi's pale little face and wide-open eyes were faintly reflected. eyes.
It turned out that she still cared about herself.
Obviously it should be painful, but it is like eating a mouthful of honey, it is extremely sweet.
A smile floated on Duan Feibai's face, but before the smile spread, his body seemed to be drained of strength in an instant, and he fell towards the ground.
Tao Jingyi subconsciously stretched out his hand, trying to grab him.
"Master! Master!" The disciples of the Tianshan School rushed over in a hurry and hugged Duan Feibai's body. Duan Feibai fell into their arms, his eyes were already plunged into darkness, so he didn't see Tao Jingyi's outstretched hand.
Tao Jingyi silently withdrew his hand, his eyes fell on the bright red of the blade. The blood was blown by the wind, and it had gradually solidified. It was so red that it hurt her eyes.
