In the Blade

Seeing the giant eagle without a head falling to the ground, Xiang Rong frowned in mid-air.

The situation was a bit abnormal, or it was beyond his cognition. At least from his brief understanding of the boy when he went up the mountain before, the other party was not a pedantic person like Ruan Shantao. His temperament was essentially similar to him - and this meant that the boy was also a flexible person like him.

But such a person, when facing a monster, took the initiative to give up the weapon in his hand, just to keep him?

Is this kid crazy?

"Well."

With just a flip, Xiang Rong, who fell from a high altitude, stood steadily on the ground.

"Since you want to fight two people alone, then I will fulfill your wish... huh?"

"Cerebral palsy."

Before Xiang Rong started to move, Du Chengfeng, who was riding on a horse, whistled past Xiang Rong like a gust of wind.

Then, thirty-eight dry arms with bamboo joints grabbed Xiang Rong all the way, surging like waves.

"You!"

Seeing those withered big hands covering the sky, Xiang Rong, who fell from the sky, came to his senses.

It was like two people met a bear in the forest, and the ferocious giant bear chased them closely. At this time, the person who fell behind really needed to consider whether he could beat the giant bear?

No, he just needed to run past the person in front.

Just like here now, Xiang Rong, who was pulled back to the ground, lost the mobility of the human-faced giant eagle and became the one who fell behind. And behind him, the monster named Ruan Shantao, which he had created by himself, had already caught up.

Between the forty-six dry arms, Xiang Rong could even faintly hear the hoarse voice of his old friend.

"Regret, I regret it so much..."

The monster named Ruan Shantao howled hoarsely, and tears flowed from the eyes on each palm.

"I have lived for more than eighty years in vain. I have done nothing, I have accomplished nothing... Nothing has changed, nothing has gotten better. I regret it so much, so much!"

Three hundred and sixty-four arms roared in unison, wailing to the sky.

Regret, regret, once upon a time, Ruan Shantao once thought that he had taken root in Yanzhou and taught people, which was like making some contribution to the world, but it was not until now that he realized that his benevolence and righteousness were so narrow and so insignificant.

He did make some changes in Yanzhou, but there was still no change in Jibei next door. People still drew their swords against each other when they disagreed, and still discarded the way of benevolence and righteousness - even in Yanzhou, there was no real peace. People still killed each other in places he could not see.

Jizhou was captured, and he could not do anything. The emperor wanted to reduce the military equipment of each state, but he still could not do anything. Even though he was the highest official at the highest level, looking back, he actually did nothing.

Then what is the meaning of his persistence.

What is the purpose of his benevolence?

"So, we must do something."

Thinking of this, the terrifying giant named Ruan Shantao pulled out the roots buried deep under the Ziyang Mountain.

For a moment, the ground shook.

"Brother Ruan! Are you crazy!"

There seemed to be a voice coming from under his feet, which sounded very familiar.

But Ruan Shantao did not agree with this point of view.

Crazy? How could it be possible? His current state is simply better than ever. Unparalleled power is flowing through his torso and 3,486 limbs, which gives him enough power to change everything.

Yes, power, he should have thought of it earlier.

With such power, who can stop his benevolence!

"Boom--"

Just when Ruan Shantao was about to step out his 632 legs to practice his benevolence, a cross of sword lights crisscrossed his body fiercely!

The dark green juice splashed all over the sky, which made Ruan Shantao lower his head.

He wanted to see who was blocking his benevolence and righteousness, which treacherous villain!

"......Huh?"

What appeared in the five thousand two hundred and forty-seven eyes was a familiar figure with disheveled hair.

"Xiang Rong? When did you come?"

The behemoth named Ruan Shantao was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

"Yes, you should come. It's been so long, it seems that you finally figured it out... What, are you finally willing to recognize my benevolence?"

As he said this, Ruan Shantao waved his long arms, and those twisted and tangled arms like the roots of an old tree grabbed Xiang Rong.

"Then let's come together! For our benevolence! For the people of Da Chen!"

"...... Even if you become a monster, do you still only have Da Chen in your eyes? Brother Ruan?"

With his fists clenched, Xiang Rong looked up at the behemoth in front of him.

"Even if I become a monster, is there still no place for me in your kindness, Brother Ruan?"

"Brother Xiang Rong! Do you feel my kindness?"

Grabbing Xiang Rong, the monster named Ruan Shantao couldn't help laughing.

"You are right! Kindness should be spread to the world, and the four seas should be conquered..."

Buzz——

The towering tree-like arms melted away.

In just a moment, the huge evil spirit torrent destroyed half of Ruan Shantao's body, and the broken branches and leaves dissipated between heaven and earth.

And Xiang Rong's hand, I don't know when, has a long halberd.

The long halberd is a halberd with a double blade, one straight and one horizontal, like two unparalleled sharp swords, but the pole of the long halberd is like a twisted and winding pale spine. The old red silk wrapped around this winding dragon-like spine makes the white bone pole more noble out of thin air, and after this nobleness is mixed with the fierce and murderous aura of the long halberd itself, it gives off a domineering aura out of thin air.

And on the edge of the red silk, you can faintly see some phoenix patterns.

"Brother Ruan, I'm really sorry for hiding it from you for so long... My name is not Xiang Rong."

Holding the halberd in one hand, the middle-aged man named "Xiang Rong" looked up at the huge monster in front of him.

"Let's get to know each other again. My name is Xiang Rong, the 35th generation grandson of the Great Chu royal family... Just like there will be no Chu people like me in your Renli, in my eyes, you Chen people are just a group of usurpers and rebels."

But I will always remember our youth when we drank and talked happily together.

"Buzz--"

The towering tree collapsed.

And on the fierce halberd in Xiang Rong's hand, there were several more cracks between the pale spines.

"Is it completely unable to hold on..."

Looking at the halberd in his hand, Xiang Rong's face was gloomy.

"But he can't do it. He and you don't have a good relationship... There's no reason. I said no, it's no."

Speaking of this, Xiang Rong raised his head and looked at the huge corpse beside him.

"Brother Ruan, since you are unwilling to use your benevolence to help me, then I can only listen to it."

Looking at the horrible wounds on the corpse, Xiang Rong couldn't help but tighten the halberd in his hand.

Just the weak remains can have such power. If this Overlord's Halberd is completely resurrected, the Great Chu will surely come back and wipe out the eight wildernesses and six directions.

Just like the Phoenix bird that the Chu people worship, reborn from the ashes.

"But you still need to bear with it for a while... It's not enough, this amount is not enough now."

Gritting his teeth, Xiang Rong reached out and cut open his back, and inserted the fierce long halberd like a spine back into the flesh and blood of his back.

After that, he straightened his clothes and headed north.

The first update is here, and the second update will be around two o'clock.
