Chapter 179 Looking forward to losing
Mei Jianxue nodded to the referee and signaled that he would also participate in the competition.
The audience finally breathed a sigh of relief. If even this game was ruined, it could only be said that the strange characteristics of this year's whole-city competition were extremely strange.
Thinking of the last competition to watch, and it was a battle between the golden boy and the jade girl, the audience slightly relieved their previous depression and anger.
Perhaps, in the eyes of outsiders and even those of Qingwu Sect, the reason why Mei Jianxue chose to fight with the injured Lin Yan without regard for the rumors of victory was because she was a choice from the sect's standpoint and made for the interests of the sect.
However, Lin Yan didn't think so.
Lin Yan knew that Mei Jianxue wanted to fight with him, but in fact, it was to teach him a lesson, to vent his anger, to vent his anger, and to vent the anger of everyone in Qingwu Sect.
To put it bluntly, Mei Jianxue was under too much psychological pressure. Only by beating him, the culprit, in front of tens of thousands of viewers, can she relieve her inner guilt and find a reason for herself to convince herself to be a member of the Qingwu Sect in the cheers of everyone, especially the Qingwu Sect.
Yes, Mei Jianxue feels really tired.
Every day, she almost always meets Qingfeng and Tianxuan. When she sees them, she will involuntarily remember the truth about the death of the leader Qingjue, and even treats herself as an accomplice to kill Qingjue.
Moreover, the people from Qingwu Sect are busy working together to find the real murderer who killed the leader Qingjue, so every time she walks out of the courtyard where she lives alone, she can almost hear everyone's comments on this, which makes her burden even more psychological pressure.
She was incredibly painful.
On the one hand, she could not tell the truth about Lin Yan killing Qing Jue on her back. Because from Lin Yan's standpoint, the leader of Qing Jue really had to die, and there was a reasonable reason for death.
On the other hand, she felt very reluctant to see the people in the door working hard to find the murderer, especially when she saw Qingfeng enter the room where Qingjue Spiritual Pose, she felt even more like a sinner.
It's been so many days since she lived in such a torture.
She could not tell anyone about this unspeakable pain, neither Wu Ma nor Lin Yan.
These days, she has never gone to the suburbs to see Lin Yan.
She imagined that she could overcome this dilemma, but she was disappointed because she couldn't do it.
However, she still stubbornly believed that at least, the truth should not be told, otherwise, Lin Yan would be killed.
What she chose was to endure the pain alone.
Therefore, she needed such an opportunity to defeat Lin Yan on the ring, bring joy to the Qingwu Sect, and also wash away the invisible guilt for herself.
Now, she looked at Lin Yan quietly in a white dress, facing the morning breeze, under the early spring sunshine.
Lin Yan could feel the pain in Mei Jianxue's heart. He smiled at Mei Jianxue. His meaning was very clear and he understood very well. Just take action. Don't think about it. The more I lose, the more good I am to you and me.
Of course, others did not understand the meaning of this smile, but Mei Xue understood, so Mei Xue nodded slightly.
This is probably a result that no one expected, and even Lin Yan himself did not expect. After killing Qing Jue to participate in the city-wide competition, he made up his mind to announce his strong return in front of all the residents of Xiaoshui City in the city-wide competition. However, he did not expect that in the last competition, he did not want to win, but would rather wish that he would lose.
Moreover, I hope that the more you lose, the better. In this way, his guilt towards the snowfall of plum can be reduced.
Sometimes life is like this. Lin Yan just sighed that Dugu Sword Demon lives only for himself, but now, he has to use his own negative example to highlight the uniqueness of Dugu Sword Demon's unique qualities.
"Miss Jiangxue, I'm really sorry to have you fallen into a state of great difficulty." Lin Yan murmured in his heart as he looked at the plum snowy snowy fluff.
"Clang!"
The golden gong was beaten heavily, and the battle officially began.
"Uncle Master."
No one noticed that a black figure suddenly appeared on the rostrum, talking to Tianxuan.
"Qingfeng, you're still here." Tian Xuan said with a smile and pointed to the ring.
The person who came was Qingfeng.
Qingfeng thought about it all over the Qingwu Gate and felt that he should come to the competition site. Although today is not the day when Lin Yan and Mei Xuexi compete, it is the day when Lin Yan challenged Dugu Sword Demon, so he really wanted to see Lin Yan's defeated look.
However, when he came to the rostrum and looked at the ring in the direction of the finger of the uncle of Tianxuan Master Tian’s master, he was puzzled.
"Uncle Master, what's going on?" Qingfeng asked as Junior Sister Jiang Xue, dressed in white on the stage, had already fought with the hateful Lin Yan.
Tianxuan told the whole story.
Only then did Qingfeng understand why this battle that should have been staged only after the genius was born, and why it happened at this moment.
"Hmph, if I knew Lin Yan would fight with Dugu Sword Demon last night, I would definitely ambush beside me and wait to take Lin Yan's life." Qing Feng said viciously in his heart, but he did not show any ruthlessness in his mouth, but just said: "Junior Sister Jiangxue seems to be really using her full strength. Do you really want to defeat Lin Yan?"
Although Qingfeng just pretended to say something casually, his eyes didn't leave the arena, and he obviously valued it very much.
As an old fox with extremely rich experience, Tianxuan could not see the truth. He didn't point it out at the moment and said with a smile: "Qingfeng, you misjudged your junior sister this time. When it comes to the interests of the sect, Jiangxue will never be confused. Look, let alone Lin Yan was injured last night. Even if Lin Yan was not injured, Jiangxue will attack, defeat Lin Yan, win the first place in this city competition, and win honor for our Qingwu Sect."
Seeing that Junior Sister Jiang Xue was really attentive on the stage, Qingfeng felt a little better. He seemed to feel that the more Mei Jianxue was trying to be with Lin Yan, the more chance he would have to win back her junior sister's heart.
"Uncle Master, then I'll go to the side to watch the battle."
Qingfeng politely greeted Tianxuan, found a position in the contestant area, and watched quietly.
On the field.
The audience did not see the "love" moves of Mei Jianxue and Lin Yan, the golden boy and jade girl, and the back and forth, but what they saw was actually a final fight.
Not only was Lin Yan injured and was fighting desperately, but Mei Jianxue seemed to have become unaware of Lin Yan. He tried every move, as if he had made up his mind to defeat Lin Yan.
For a moment, sword shadows were everywhere on the ring and murderous intent rose.
Mei Jianxue and Lin Yan each used a long sword, and had fought at close range for nearly five minutes, and had fought fiercely for more than two hundred moves.
Anyone who knows a little about martial arts can see that Mei Jianxue deliberately wanted to consume Lin Yan's already insufficient physical strength, and then launch a more fierce attack to defeat Lin Yan.
The plum blossoms dance gracefully as snow fall, like fairies among flowers. Although the sword energy is sharp, its posture is particularly graceful.
"Swish."
Mei Jiangxue stabbed forward with a sword, forcing Lin Yan to use a battle sword to block in front of him. Mei Jiangxue suddenly changed her moves, and her sword body rotated and slid down suddenly, slashing towards Lin Yan's waist with a sword.
Lin Yan had to use the battle sword to resist again, but he couldn't resist the strong slash of Mei Jianxue, and the battle sword almost lost his hand.
But Lin Yan did not look angry at all on his face, but instead he was calm. He tightened his right hand and then held the sword tightly, continuing to resolve the attack of Mei Xue's slightly passively.
There are many situations like this. The plum snowfall clearly means that it will exhaust Lin Yan's physical strength and constantly force Lin Yan to return to defense and be exhausted from dealing with his own attacks.
"Hehe, I'll just say that in the face of the interests of the sect, even if Mei Jianxue likes Lin Yan, she will not be able to let go. She must defeat Lin Yan. Now you all see it, Lin Yan will definitely be defeated." One person said proudly to the people around him.
"Well, yes, I thought Mei Xue would be shy, but I didn't know that it was an attack with all my might as well. It seemed that Lin Yan couldn't hold on for long."
Others also agreed.
Although the excitement of this competition was discounted by Lin Yan's injury, after experiencing Dugu Sword Demon withdrew from the competition twice in a row, the audience no longer had to worry about being so picky. As long as there was a competition, it would be great to watch Mei Jianxue so beautiful, and being able to witness her face and skills is already a very enjoyable thing.
While the audience was talking, Lin Yan was forced to retreat several meters again, and his sword speed became slower and he seemed to have decided.
"Swish."
Mei Jianxue stabbed him again without any fancy.
This time, Lin Yan, who had consumed much physical strength, could not avoid it anymore. The thin sword used by Mei Jingxue just stabbed his shoulder with a sword. Although it was protected by Netherworld soft armor, the shoulder was not covered by Netherworld soft armor. Therefore, when Mei Jingxue drew his sword back, a thin stream of blood had already burst out from Lin Yan's shoulders. Soon, the blood had dyed the entire shoulder red.
But what surprised everyone was that Mei Jianxue did not worry about Lin Yan's safety because of this, but continued to attack, and said coldly: "Lin Yan, you are not my opponent, so you should admit defeat as soon as possible."
Everyone in the Qingwu Sect, including Qingfeng, showed joy and nodded in praise of Mei Jianxue, because Mei Jianxue obviously put the interests of the sect first and had no other considerations with Lin Yan. In Mei Jianxue's eyes, Lin Yan was just her opponent today, that's all.
However, Lin Yan knew very well that it was not that Mei Jianxue was trying to attack her heart with words, but that Mei Jianxue was caring for herself and asking her to admit defeat. In this way, she could find a reason to stop attacking and she could suffer less injuries.
