Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

Chapter 728: Drinking Blood Men

A roof to shelter from wind and rain, a pair of tattered clothes to keep out the cold and heat, a bowl of leftovers to get through the long day, and a pair of fists and feet to move forward!

This is the life of the fragmented people of Youzhou!

How could Murong Yanbo not be cruel? But his heart also hurts!

The world only knows the viciousness in Murong Rongbo's eyes and the scheming in his heart, but the world does not know the pain and love in his heart. He wants to unify Youzhou and give all the people a place to live and work in peace, but all this is not up to him at all!

A thousand years ago, the battle between good and evil ended, but the conflict in Youzhou began from then on, and it has never stopped for a thousand years.

There are rulers of Youzhou from generation to generation, but they exist in name only! There is only one kind of people who suffer: the common people.

The reason why Murong Ruoxi has Youzhou in her heart is because she has made up her mind since she was a child to unify Youzhou like her father Murong Rongbo, and give people a place to live and work in peace and contentment.

Alas, it seems that it is really just a dream, an unattainable dream, but this dream has never disappeared from the hearts of this father and daughter!

Shen Yichen would never have thought that the charming young lady who had everything she wanted would have such a dream in her heart, right? That was another side of Murong Ruoxi, and that side would only be in Youzhou!

Murong Ruoxi wants to be a wine fairy, but in fact she has two different thoughts!

One is that she wants to let go of everything in her heart and become a carefree wine fairy;

Secondly, she wanted her people in Youzhou to become immortals in wine, free from the suffering of war and the difficulties of separation from life and death!

Why did both Hua Shengsheng and Jiu Xiaoyao think Murong Ruoxi was special and were willing to accept her as their apprentice? In addition to Murong Ruoxi's own qualifications, there was also her heart!

The Painting Saint and Jiu Xiaoyao had been to Youzhou and knew the situation in Youzhou. They both thought that Murong Ruoxi could not be the eldest daughter of Youzhou. Such a free and easy-going and uninhibited eldest daughter could not be raised in such a climate and environment. But Murong Ruoxi happened to be the eldest daughter of Youzhou.

Murong Ruoxi is a seed hidden in the darkness, a seed that can grow into a towering tree. The Painting Saint and Jiu Xiaoyao saw this germinating seed at a glance.

The vision of a saint may be biased, but if two saints are optimistic about it, then it should not be wrong. Murong Ruoxi herself may not even realize this!

What the saints see is hope, especially these two saints, both of whom are dying. One has reached the end of his life, and the other is determined to die. He wants to remove the invisible shackles on his body.

Murong Ruoxi is the ray of hope that shines in for both of them at the end of their lives. Isn’t she also the light of hope for Youzhou?

The moon is waning, but my heart is still filled with worries!

After Murong Yanbo left the twilight pavilion, he actually went to the intersection where he was trapped. He stood alone at the crossroads. In the dark night, he was laughing, a bitter laugh!

In Youzhou, benevolence leads to struggle and failure, and his tyranny leads to struggle and failure. Murong Rongbo is very confused!

For decades, Murong Rongbo has been carrying the reputation of being a murderer and ruthless. He himself doesn't know where he went wrong. The Ji family, Yingzhou, Yanquan, and the Extraterritorial Demon Sect all have bases in Youzhou. He really can't defeat them alone!

"Hey!"

With a sigh, Murong Lunbo looked at the four roads of southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest. They were exactly the same as the chessboard in the twilight pavilion. There was murderous intent on every road. This murderous intent was not in the chess pieces, not between heaven and earth, but only in his own heart!

"What should I do? Who can tell me?"

Murong Rongbo had asked this question countless times in his life, but no one could tell him that he had walked through all the roads step by step, endured them step by step, and walked through them step by step! This fate has now been passed on to her daughter Murong Ruoxi!

Murong Rongbo didn't want to help Murong Ruoxi, nor did he want to interfere with Murong Ruoxi's choice, because the path he was taking was already a path to failure. As long as Murong Ruoxi's heart did not change, then he would let her go ahead and walk freely, because the answer in Murong Ruoxi's heart could only be found by herself!

Rather than saying that Ji Xuanyan's request was the Ji family's punishment for Murong Rongbo's auction of the Qiankun Jade Pendant, it would be more accurate to say that it was a punishment for him for interfering with Murong Ruoxi's feelings.

What Ji Xuanyan in black said to Ouyang Zhiqing was right. Murong Rongbo had been thinking about how to sever the love between Shen Yichen and Murong Ruoxi. He even thought about killing Shen Yichen, but he was worried that Murong Ruoxi would never recover!

Now that Ji Xuanyan has helped him make the choice, he hesitated instead, because that is his biological daughter!

In the twilight pavilion, Murong Yanbo really wanted to ask what Ji Xuanyan was thinking when she went up to the tower to perform dance, but he really didn't dare!

Now Murong Yanbo wanted to ask himself, what on earth was he thinking? Why did he agree to this and let his own daughter dance naked for the world!

"Hahahaha… What was I thinking? What was I thinking…"

Murong Yanbo knelt at the intersection of the long street, looked up at the sky, asked the heavens, and shouted:

"Why, why is it like this? In the first half of my life, I hurt the woman I love so much! In the second half of my life, will I hurt my daughter so much again?"

Heaven doesn’t answer, and earth doesn’t answer!

All the answers of Murong Yanbo still have to be asked from the heart trapped in murderous intent!

Murong Lunbo slumped at the intersection and started drinking. He loved drinking when he was young, but since he took on the position of head of the family, he has never been drunk again. He dared not get drunk!

"What are you doing? I've been looking for you for a long time!"

Xue Ji came and landed beside Murong Lunbo. Actually, he was not familiar with Murong Lunbo, but things in the world are so wonderful. The hearts of the two of them in Jianying City seem to be close!

Even Xue Ji himself found it incredible!

"Come on, drink!"

Murong Yanbo handed Xue Ji a pot of wine, but Xue Ji did not take it.

"Wine, wine, I didn't know what it tasted like twenty years ago!"

Xue Ji drank a mouthful of blood. Blood was now his favorite, but also the most painful!

"Can I ask why you learned the bloodthirsty magic skills back then?"

Xue Ji also sat on the ground, clinked his blood pot with Murong Yanbo's wine pot, drank a big mouthful of blood, and responded softly:

"You in the twilight pavilion are me back then!"

Murong Yanbo took a sip of wine and said softly:

"Do you know why I saved you back then?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Ji was slightly stunned and turned to look at Murong Rongbo.

"You in Manghuang back then were me in the past!"

Murong Yanbo drank his wine, which was full of bitterness, and continued:

"I had a son, he should be a son, but he never saw the waning moon and the morning glow. I survived by drinking my own blood, but my son..."

Murong Yanbo looked at the blood stains on the side of the wine pot in the bloodthorn and said lightly:

"I know the taste of blood. It's salty, then astringent. Then astringent makes me thirsty. When I'm thirsty, I have to keep drinking!"

"Thank you for saving me!"

Xue Ji was really grateful to Murong Rongbo for giving him the opportunity to see his son!

"Some things cannot be said. Maybe one day you will hate me. I will let you see the more painful side of life. Nightmare Blood is Gongsun Hongyan!"

Xue Ji stopped drinking the blood that was about to reach his mouth and let it flow down. After a long time, he took a sip and said softly:

"I feel sorry for her. Actually, I had my own selfish motives back then. I didn't love her!"

"People like us don't deserve love in our hearts. Love is hurt and painful. It will never be sweet or honey, because there is blood in our love!"

Murong Lunbo burst into tears. He felt really sorry for the woman in Ziyun Divine Pavilion because he was going to hurt her child again.

Murong Yanbo didn't know whether Murong Ruoxi could survive or whether she had the courage to survive. Could Murong Ruoxi bear such humiliation?

"We don't deserve love, but we have it in our hearts. What can we do? I really can't forget the past. We have been together day and night for more than ten years. That love has already entered my internal organs. Unless I die!"

After Xue Ji finished speaking, he glanced at Murong Rongbo who was crying, and shook his head. No matter what the rumors were, Murong Rongbo was a poor good man!

"You are sober because of her! If it weren't for her, you would have become an irrational murderer!"

"Yes, maybe this is the power of love!"

Murong Yanbo smiled when he heard this! Because the reason why he was able to drink blood and crawl to survive was because of the love in his heart.

"It's been twenty years. I should have had a couple of drinks with you in Youzhou!"

"Hahaha...your daughter is great, she's really nice to me!"

Murong Yanbo was startled when he heard this, and took a few more sips of wine, then said softly:

"Xixi is very kind to everyone. She has such a good heart. This is also her calamity!"

"I've always wanted to ask you, why did you drag Xixi into the disputes in the martial arts world? Her heart shouldn't be in the martial arts world, it should be in the countryside, in the wilderness, among the mountains and rivers!"

Xue Ji actually knew the answer to this question, but he still wanted to ask. He just wanted to know whether Murong Rongbo was heartbroken!

He knew the answer, it was in that endless wine!

Murong Lunbo really didn't answer this question, he just drank like crazy for a long time!

"Do me a favor!"

Xue Ji was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He took two sips of blood and did not respond. He knew that this favor might be of great importance!

Murong Yanbo was drinking and waiting for Xue Ji's response. He thought about it for a long time before coming up with this method. In this way, Murong Ruoxi might accept it and live without psychological trauma.

"Is it related to Xixi?"

Xue Ji was helpless. He didn't want to hurt Xixi, he really didn't want to!

"I fed you the medicine back then, and I want you to feed it to her, in the name of revenge!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Ji's expression changed. He turned to look at Murong Yanbo and said in surprise:

"You, what on earth are you going to do? Are you crazy? That's your biological daughter!"

"What should I do? What should I do...I want to drink!"

Murong Yanbo took out ten pots of wine and drank five of them in one breath!

"Promise me, promise me, I'm helping Xixi, and it's also saving her, do you understand? Do you understand?"

Murong Yanbo grabbed Xue Ji's collar with both hands. He was forcing Xue Ji to agree, and also begging Xue Ji to agree!

"What on earth are the Ji family going to do?"

There were bloodshot in Xue Ji's eyes!

"Destroy Jianying City and conquer Yingzhou!"

"What I'm asking is what the Ji family is going to do to Xixi?"

Murong Yanbo loosened his collar and picked up the wine on the ground!

"Nude dance for the world, blood-stained sword for the city!"

Xue Ji hurriedly drank two mouthfuls of blood. He grabbed Murong Yanbo by the collar and said harshly:

"You agreed? You are the Lord of Youzhou, why don't you resist?"

"Hahahaha...hahahaha...why didn't you resist twenty years ago? Why? I just want Xixi to leave Jianying City alive. We are all pawns of the Ji family. We are all pawns of the Ji family!"

Xue Ji slowly loosened his hand, because he was also a chess piece, and chess pieces could not resist because the chess player could abandon them at any time!

Xue Ji and Murong Lunbo sat down at the same time, and the two of them exchanged wine jugs tacitly. Xue Ji took a sip of wine and Murong Lunbo took a sip of blood.

There was blood dripping from both of their lips!

"Will you regret it?"

Xueji changed the wine jug back, he couldn't live without blood.

"Thousands of years ago, the Youzhou Murong clan was united because of the Purple Cloud Goddess. Thousands of years later, Xixi is the Purple Cloud Goddess of Youzhou. I would rather let Xixi live in humiliation than let her die. She is not only my hope, but also the hope of Youzhou and the people of Youzhou!"

In the dim night, two men were drinking together. These two men had both drunk their own blood.

The blood in the Bloodthorn Wine Flask was his own, and no one knew this secret. But that night, Murong Rongbo learned this secret!
