#173 - Win once each
Chapter 173: One Win Each
The Milky Way descends, flowing from the azure sky, carrying ninety thousand miles of dust.
One step, two steps, three steps...
While coughing blood, Wei Changtian slowly walked through the settling dust towards Xiao Feng.
In reality, it was a draw just now.
"Pa!"
Wei Changtian didn't speak, but casually summoned another long saber, then gently waved it to cut open Xiao Feng's already tattered outer robe.
"Glug glug glug..."
A small compass rolled out, and besides that, there were only a few bottles of pills left.
Is this the Demon Mirror Compass?
Bending down to pick up the small compass, he kicked the bottles of pills far away.
After this search, Wei Changtian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It's gone, this time there really shouldn't be any life-saving items left.
A hero at the end of his road...
The phrase popped into Wei Changtian's mind.
But...
"That question just now... cough..."
Suddenly, a weak but calm voice entered his ears.
"Cough... can you tell me the answer?"
"..."
Answer? Why you became the Child of Destiny?
Where would such an answer come from.
He couldn't exactly tell Xiao Feng that you're actually a character in a novel from another world, right?
Wei Changtian shook his head, originally not wanting to say any more nonsense.
However, when he looked at Xiao Feng's tightly clenched fist, he hesitated for a moment.
"Xiao Feng, you didn't actually do anything wrong."
Wei Changtian's voice was calm, and although his tone wasn't exactly sincere, there wasn't a trace of mockery.
Because that's truly what he thought.
The earliest feud between Xiao Feng and the Wei family was because Wei Xianzheng ordered the killing of his entire family.
Xiao Feng came to the Wei residence to snatch the bride because "I" coerced Lu Jingyao into marrying "me."
There was also the deceased little girl, Ying'er, as well as the Myriad Blade Attraction and Starry Sky Saber Sheath that should have belonged to Xiao Feng...
If standing from Xiao Feng's perspective, of course he wasn't wrong.
Furthermore, besides those things, Xiao Feng's usual actions, words, and deeds were also impeccable.
Eliminating evil and protecting the good, acting chivalrously, and keeping his word...
Even in the situation of occupying absolute advantage just now, he still kept his promise and didn't kill Yang Liushi.
Recalling his "reneging on his word" at the Wei residence, Wei Changtian shook his head with some bitterness.
Looking at it this way, I'm really only fit to be a villain...
The dust settled, and the devastated summit of Smoke Cloud Mountain returned to calm.
"Wei... Wei Changtian..."
Xiao Feng opened his mouth, and with each word, a stream of blood gushed from the corner of his mouth.
"What... what exactly do you want to tell me..."
"I already said, I just want to tell you that you didn't do anything wrong."
Wei Changtian bent down and sat next to Xiao Feng, this time his tone was very serious.
"This world originally doesn't have that much right and wrong."
"You wanting to kill me is perfectly justifiable."
"Me wanting to kill you is also equally natural and righteous."
"It's just that this time I won, it's that simple."
"Is that so..."
Xiao Feng's expression was somewhat lonely, and the hatred in his heart at this moment turned into a kind of inexplicable relief.
If he could attribute everything to a simple win or loss, accepting it would seem not so difficult after all.
Only...
"Wei Changtian, you still haven't told me why you know everything about me."
"This matter..."
Wei Changtian hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "I think it's better for you not to know."
The bright red blood gushed out more and more, and Xiao Feng's consciousness had already begun to blur.
Looking at Wei Changtian, who was sitting next to him with disheveled hair and a dirty face, he struggled to spit out a mouthful of dirty blood, trying to make his voice clearer.
"I want to know."
"..."
Wei Changtian sighed softly, no longer refusing.
He leaned over and whispered a few words in Xiao Feng's ear, and a huge wave slowly rose in the latter's eyes.
"You... what you said is true?"
"Of course it's true, I have no need to deceive a dying man."
Wei Changtian sat up straight again, suddenly smiling as if chatting with an old friend: "How is it? Do you regret it after hearing it?"
"Regret..."
Xiao Feng shook his head with a wry smile: "Not at all, just a little surprised."
"I was also very surprised at the beginning."
Wei Changtian looked up at the night sky: "But what can I do?"
"Yes, what can I do..."
Xiao Feng also gazed at the bright moon, muttering to himself as he asked:
"To think that I could step into First Grade... Wei Changtian, what exactly is First Grade like?"
"Half-immortal."
Wei Changtian didn't hide anything, answering truthfully: "Ascend to the peak of a nation, ride the righteousness of heaven and earth, control the changes of the six energies, and change one's own fate, that is a half-immortal."
"Ascend to the peak of a nation, able to change one's own fate..."
There was some longing in Xiao Feng's eyes, but suddenly he seemed to have remembered something, turning his head to ask again:
"By the way, since I have stepped into First Grade, then what about you?"
"Me?"
Wei Changtian said with a smile: "You're already First Grade, how could I possibly be your opponent?"
"Of course, I'll be killed by you with a casual move."
"..."
"Hahahaha!"
The laughter of the two echoed in the night sky.
Especially Xiao Feng, laughing particularly happily.
That laughter rushed away, instantly drilling into the clouds, completely flying away from this world, never to be heard again.
"Wei Changtian, since I have already won against you once..."
The laughter gradually stopped, Xiao Feng took a deep breath: "Then do it, kill me, and we can each be considered to have won once."
"..."
Wei Changtian didn't look at Xiao Feng, but slowly stood up from the ground, looking up at Qin Zhengqiu and the others who were still in mid-air.
The battle had long stopped, and the expressions of the group of people were extremely surprised.
They probably couldn't understand how the mortal enemies who were still fighting to the death just now suddenly sat down and started chatting.
Those who didn't know would think they were close friends!
"Ding!"
Another long saber scattered on the ground slowly floated up, slowly stopping directly above Xiao Feng.
Everyone held their breath at this moment, only the expressions of two people were very calm.
Without turning his head, Wei Changtian asked Xiao Feng with his back to him:
"Do you have anything else you want to say?"
"No."
"Good."
"Shua!"
A cold light flashed, and the long saber fell rapidly.
"[Ding!]"
"[Detected that the plot has changed]"
"[Reward system points: 3000]"
"[Detected that the system prerequisite is missing, the current system cannot run]"
"[System is automatically updating, current progress 0.1%]"
"[...]"
A series of prompts sounded in his mind, but they were all ignored by Wei Changtian.
There was no excitement as expected, no relief.
At this moment, he just inexplicably thought of a poem by Chen Yinque in his previous life.
The distant sound of bells comes from afar, the shadows of trees conceal ten thousand crows.
A lifetime of defiance has led to today, no one faces the setting sun in the four seas.
Broken mountains and rivers welcome victory, the remaining years bring desolation.
When will the dream of pine gates and chrysanthemums return, let us recognize a foreign land as our hometown.
"..."
Coldly raising his head, staring at Wu Tianqing and the others whose faces were extremely ugly.
"Grandpa, kill them all."
There's still one chapter today, also a heads up, the second volume will end within two days.
