Shen Tianfeng's judgment was right. Just as his consciousness spread out, a figure soared into the sky from the depths of the academy and turned into a streak of light that flew straight east.
"Hmm?"
Ye Longyuan's eyes darkened as he reached out and clenched his fist.
"Ah!"
The figure that had already flown thousands of miles away was pulled back and landed heavily in front of everyone's feet.
Qin Hao looked down and discovered that it was an old man with messy hair and dirty clothes. He was about the same age as Shen Tianfeng.
Judging from the Yuan Qi that this person had used to escape, he was also a Yuan Venerate powerhouse.
Furthermore, his cultivation was actually above Tian Shulin's. He was an eighth-level Yuan Venerate.
All the disciples of Star-Moon Academy were shocked.
No one had expected that there would be such a terrifying character hidden within the academy whose strength was above the Chief Dean's.
Then, who exactly was he?
Many disciples were puzzled as they speculated.
Shen Tianfeng pointed at the old man and said through gritted teeth, "Xi Ren, it's really you.
I also didn't expect that you would not die and even attack Star-Moon Academy! "
The old man called Xi Ren lifted his head and revealed a terrifying face.
His face was covered with scars left behind by blades and swords, and his original appearance couldn't be seen clearly.
In fact, his appearance had already been disfigured when Shen Tianfeng had saved him.
Qin Hao stood to the side and watched silently, not interrupting.
Although he didn't know Xi Ren, he had a feeling that Xi Ren knew him.
While Xi Ren and Shen Tianfeng were talking, Xi Ren had been sizing up Qin Hao from the corner of his eye, not missing any detail.
The look in his eyes was very strange. It was mixed with surprise, and there was also a strong sense of fear.
"Does this person know my background?"
Qin Hao suddenly had a bad premonition and subconsciously grabbed Weiwei's hand.
"Why?"
At that moment, Shen Tianfeng grabbed Xi Ren by the neck and lifted him in front of everyone. Then, he whipped Xi Ren wildly in front of everyone and roared furiously, "Why did you secretly hurt me and cripple me before cruelly abandoning me in the Dark Night Forest and letting me suffer for decades? Do you still have a conscience?"
If not for Shen Tianfeng's help back then, Sunset Blade would have been killed.
He took Xi Ren in at Starry Moon Academy and healed him. As time passed, Shen Tianfeng discovered that Xi Ren's martial arts attainments were extraordinary. Shen Tianfeng regretted not having met him sooner and gradually became close friends with him.
Who would have thought that the other party would suddenly launch a sneak attack while he was comprehending the Sword Dao, causing Shen Tianfeng's meridians to be severed?
Hearing Shen Tianfeng's description, everyone was enlightened and understood the ins and outs of the matter.
"This question has been stuck in my heart for decades. I just want to ask why."
Shen Tianfeng roared.
"Why?
Haha, don't tell me you don't know?
Shen Tianfeng, you are too stupid! "
Sunset Blade let out a hoarse laugh and pointed at his back.
There was a strange tattoo on his back.
The subject of the tattoo was an incomparably huge sword. The sword was particularly dazzling. Even though it was just a picture, it made people feel a deep sense of fear.
As he spoke, Sunset Blade took the initiative to tear his clothes, revealing his back.
Suddenly, the huge sword that was filled with a domineering and cold aura was suddenly exposed. A monstrous murderous aura surged, shocking the surrounding disciples so much that they could not help but retreat. It was as if the sword would suddenly fly out from Sunset Blade's back and chop off everyone's heads.
As for this sword, it had an innate ability to intimidate people.
An irresistible deterrent power.
When Ye Longyuan saw this sword, he could not help but suddenly feel nervous.
"What?"
"It's actually …"
At this moment, Mu Yuwei and Xin Keyue exclaimed at the same time.
They recognized this tattoo.
In their impression, this tattoo was once a nightmarish existence.
Naturally, Qin Hao also recognized this tattoo.
He was more familiar with tattoos than anyone else in the world.
This was because he had personally tattooed the first huge sword on Zhan Wu's back. It represented Zhan Wu's bravery and invincibility.
Later, Zhan Wu formed a powerful force based on the tattoo. It was called the Battle Emperor's Imperial Guards, and now it was called the Battle God Imperial Guards.
Sunset Blade was a member of the Battle God Imperial Guards. To be precise, he was a descendant of the Battle God Imperial Guards.
"Back then, when you were bandaging my wounds, you had already seen it. It's impossible that you did not know my identity. With your curiosity and vision, did you not investigate it in private?
Actually, I am from the East Continent. "
Sunset Blade sneered.
It was precisely because he was not from Western Liang that he wanted to silence everyone. He had to eliminate anyone who had seen the Battle God Insignia.
It did not matter if they were friends or enemies.
Only a dead person could keep the secret of his Battle God Imperial Guards.
He had a huge mission to complete.
"Haha, what kind of nonsense is this? I really do not know." Shen Tianfeng shook his head, unusually serious.
In the days when he interacted with Sunset Blade, he guessed that he was not from Western Liang.
But so what?
He had always treated him as a friend.
He had never investigated what that tattoo represented.
As a friend, he chose to trust Sunset Blade.
But Shen Tianfeng's sincerity was fed to the dogs.
"What did you say?"
Sunset Blade was a little shocked and said absent-mindedly, "Did you really not investigate my tattoo?"
"Hahaha …"
Shen Tianfeng laughed. His laughter was heroic, but it made one feel uncomfortable. "What's the use of me investigating it?
You want to kill me just for this thing. Ridiculous, it's really too ridiculous! "
Creak!
Sunset Blade clenched his fists, his heart filled with mixed feelings. He suddenly realized that he had made a big mistake. He even did not dare to look at Shen Tianfeng's eyes.
"Actually, I sincerely treat you as a friend. I also want to drink wine and discuss the Dao with you, leisurely and ordinary in this lively academy.
Unfortunately, I have the Imperial Token and have no choice. Don't blame me! "
Sunset Blade's tone was extremely helpless.
But suddenly, he raised his eyes and looked at Qin Hao's position. His turbid eyes revealed an incomprehensible excitement and ecstasy.
In today's battle, he had seen Qin Hao and Mu Yuwei make a move.
Graceful Sword and Sunset Archery were the East Continent's Qin Emperor's signature moves.
As a small chess piece that Zhan Wu had placed in the continent, Sunset Blade was responsible for the mission of searching for Dendi's whereabouts.
He had waited for this day for nearly two hundred years.
Although he knew that he would definitely die in the next second, he had finally waited. In other words, he had completed his mission, even if he could not send the message to the East Continent.
"You don't have to speak. I know what you want to ask.
It's me. I've returned. I will take back everything that belongs to me.
At that time, your so-called glory will eventually turn into sorrow. "
Qin Hao said coldly. With Mu Yuwei's support, the two of them slowly left. Under the light of the setting sun, the two of them left very long shadows.
"Haha, is that so?
Then let's wait and see. May the Emperor's glory last forever! "
