"In the past, my royal family fought to the death to resist the demon army of the sea of ​​demons with their own strength."

Liu Wu's voice was hoarse and cold, and every word seemed to have endless hatred. "The King of Yu, King Qin, was betrayed and watched with the Holy Hall, sitting on the wall to watch my royal family's blood stained the battlefield. What's more, they stabbed hard in the back, causing my royal family's vitality to be severely damaged and fell into a place of doom."

His clenched fists trembled slightly, and his joints turned white. "Now, the opportunity for revenge has finally come." His eyes glanced around the battlefield, and his brows frowned slightly. "The only regret is, why did that sword disappear out of thin air?"

The imperial teacher Yang Boqing, who was standing beside him, was wearing a moon-white robe and fluttering clothes. A faint smile appeared on his face, just like the bright moon in the night sky.

"Your Majesty, perhaps the departure of the sword is a good thing for us." Yang Boqing's voice was gentle and steady, like a gurgling stream.

"That treasure is extremely powerful, but with our current strength, we cannot control it at all. If it is left in our hands, once it is noticed by other forces, it will inevitably lead to endless disasters. Now that it has disappeared, we are much safer."

Liu Wu nodded slightly, and a light of thought flashed in his eyes.

Seeing this, Yang Boqing continued, "Your Majesty, why not stay in this imperial city for the time being, sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, and watch these former betrayers kill each other. When both of them are both defeated, we will come forward to clean up the mess. Wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?" His smile became deeper, as if everything was under his control.

"Yeah!" Liu Wu nodded heavily, with a firm determination revealing his eyes. The two of them flashed and slowly disappeared into the darkness like ghosts, as if they had never appeared here.

After returning to the palace, Liu Wu and Yang Boqing began careful deployment in a secret room.

They would closely monitor the situation on the battlefield through the intelligence sent by spies every day. As time went by, the battle on the battlefield became more and more intense, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. Liu Wu and Yang Boqing knew that the time they were waiting for was coming.

In their opinion, if the forces that had betrayed them did not decline to a certain extent, taking rashly would undoubtedly seek death. Only when these forces were seriously injured and unable to resist could they achieve the goal of revenge at the lowest cost and regain the dignity and power that belonged to the royal family.

...

Deep in Wangzhou, in a hidden mountain range with few people, the surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, only the mountain wind was passing through the forest, making rustling sounds. Ling Xiao and Qin Xianglan sat on both sides of a rock as huge as a lying cow.

Ling Xiao's black robe fluttered in the wind, the corners of his clothes were roaring, and his cold face appeared faintly under the mottled tree shadows; Qin Xianglan was wearing a moon-white long skirt, her hair was like a waterfall, and there was a sense of agility and curiosity between her eyebrows and eyes.

Just as the two were talking, suddenly, a cold light broke through the sky and rushed from the distant sky like lightning. The cold light was extremely fast, bringing a sharp sound of breaking through the air, like a sharp sword energy that instantly penetrated into Ling Xiao's body.

Qin Xianglan's eyes widened in an instant, her pupils contracted sharply, and her originally lively eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.

Her lips opened slightly, trying to say something, but she was so shocked that she couldn't speak. Although she had heard Ling Xiao mention that the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword would return sooner or later, hearing and seeing with her own eyes are completely different.

Before this, she had a little doubt in her heart, just thinking that Ling Xiao was making a fool of herself. However, at this moment, the facts were in front of her, and she couldn't help but believe it. She sat there in her place, as if she was being stabbed by a mantra, and her mind was blank, and only the scene of the cold light sinking into Ling Xiao's body was constantly playing.

"I saw it, I said it a long time ago that I can't get rid of this thing." Ling Xiao sighed helplessly, his voice full of fatigue and annoyance. "I would rather it be far away from me so that I would not be involved in these troubles."

As he said that, he slowly closed his eyes and frowned tightly, as if recalling the crises brought about by this sword.

Although the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword is powerful and can turn the tide at critical moments, its consumption is also amazing.

Every time he activates this sword, Ling Xiao seemed to burn his vitality together. After a battle, it often takes less than one or two to use it, and he will exhaust all his internal strength, making him as weak as a candle in the wind.

In Ling Xiao's opinion, this sword is like a chicken rib, tasteless and a pity to abandon. On weekdays, it is useless, but once it encounters a life-and-death crisis, when it is really needed to play its role, it is very likely to put itself in a dangerous situation that is endless.

In the final analysis, it is because your realm is too low to fully control the power of this sword. If your realm is high enough to completely tame the sword and let it be used by you, then you may become a truly invincible existence and be able to thrive in this changing world.

Just as Ling Xiao was thinking, Qin Xianglan finally came to her senses.

She couldn't help but curiosity in her heart and asked, "Brother Ling, why did this sword choose you? Is it just because you are a demon cultivator? But this doesn't make sense. There are so many demon cultivators in this world. Although you are extremely outstanding, there are many demon cultivators who are more outstanding than you, and I really can't figure it out."

After hearing this, Ling Xiao raised his lips slightly and showed a confident smile: "I don't dare to agree with you. There are people in this world who are better than me? Why haven't I met them?" His laughter echoed in the valley, with a little arrogance and a little unruly.

Qin Xianglan stood quietly beside Ling Xiao, her hair beside her ears was teased by the mountain wind. She subconsciously raised her hand and gently stroked a strand of black hair that had slid to her cheeks behind her ears.

Just now, Ling Xiao's confident and almost conceited words echoed in the air. She was slightly stunned at first, and a light of thought flashed in her pair of eyes that were as lively as stars. The light flew in a flash, but it was like a meteor that cut through the night sky, lit up some doubts deep in her heart.

After a moment of silence, a perfect smile appeared on the corner of Qin Xianglan's mouth. The smile was like a blooming flower in spring, with a hint of gentleness and a bit playful.

She slowly opened her lips, her voice spreading softly but clearly in the valley:

"Maybe it was because I just didn't express it accurately. Brother Ling, you have always been very smart. The difficult problems in the past seem to be easily resolved in your eyes, and you can always come up with amazing solutions.
