Chapter 1144 Lonely Ending
"Liu Xunyi, you are cruel enough to abandon your own sister, but the Holy Lord cannot bear to abandon Valley Master Xiao."

Until this moment, Si Wudao still did not forget to sow discord between Liu Xunyi and Yun Jianping, and at the same time helped Yun Zhuiyue establish an image of being loyal in love, so that even though Xiao Zhirou was dissatisfied with Yun Zhuiyue, it was not easy for her to lose her temper in public at this time.

After all, Long Xiangshan's repeated tolerance and accommodation towards Liu Xunyi was ultimately due to Yun Zhuiyue's deep affection and fear for Xiao Zhirou.

While talking, Tang Xuan had already arrived in front of the endangered Li Haitang. Facing the disciple he had raised since childhood, looking at that familiar face, thinking of the naughty appearance of Li Haitang smiling and joking in front of him, even though Tang Xuan was notorious, he couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

"Liu Xunyi, your heart... is more ruthless than that of the Holy Lord of Longxiang Mountain! More cruel! More ruthless!"

Tang Xuan complained to Liu Xunyi in a voice that was almost like a roar, and at the same time, he slowly moved his trembling fingers closer to the center of Li Haitang's eyebrows. Now, as long as he exerted a little force, Li Haitang's brain would burst and he would die.

"No need to do that!" Perhaps infected by Tang Xuan's tragic spirit, the smile on Si Wudao's face became a little stiff, but his words were still sharp, "Liu Xunyi's heart is as hard as iron, Li Haitang just went ahead, and it will be our turn next. You and your disciple will be reunited on the road to the underworld soon."

"elder brother!"

Yun Jianping and Li Haitang have known each other for many years. They are close playmates who are like childhood sweethearts. Seeing that his life is hanging by a thread and hearing Si Wudao's depressing remarks, she was already flustered and no longer cared about her depressed mood and proud reserve. She grabbed Liu Xunyi's arm with both hands and begged bitterly with tears in her eyes: "I beg you, don't let more people die because of this... If the three of them die here, you and Dad... and Longxiang Mountain will really have a blood feud that will never be resolved in this life. If it really comes to that... Where do you teach me to go? How can I deal with it?"

Yun Jianping's questioning was like a steel needle that pierced deeply into the softest part of Liu Xunyi's heart, leaving him with mixed feelings.

If Yun Jianping repeats Luo Ningyu's mistakes and becomes depressed from then on, Liu Xunyi will probably be trapped in the abyss of self-blame and guilt for the rest of his life, and will never be able to escape.

"Yu'er..."

"Haitang, your master will send you off..."

"wait wait wait!"

Just when Tang Xuan made up his mind to kill Li Haitang, Pan Yuyin's unexpected scream immediately quieted the noisy scene.

Pan Yuyin shouted with her eyes closed, using almost all her strength. Therefore, when she realized that everything around her had become completely silent and she opened her eyes tremblingly, she was shocked to see a series of strange eyes staring at her, which made her sweat all over, her throat tightened, and her lips and teeth trembled slightly.

This little-known weak woman actually "came out on top" in front of all the big shots and became the center of this storm. How could the usually weak Pan Yuyin have ever encountered such a highly anticipated and thrilling scene?

But she tried to calm her pounding heart while secretly driving away the tension that lingered in her body. After a long silence, she mustered up her courage and walked towards Liu Xunyi with trembling steps.

Under Liu Xunyi's astonished and confused gaze, Pan Yuyin first looked at him timidly, and then fell to her knees with a "thump". Liu Xunyi was caught off guard and his face changed. He hurriedly took a half step back, and at the same time, the people around him uttered a faint exclamation.

"Miss Pan, what are you doing..."

"Brother Liu, I saw everything that happened today. Miss Yun and I... don't want anyone else to lose their life because of this. If Grandpa were still alive... I believe he wouldn't want Brother Liu to have a rift with his own sister because of the Pan family's affairs."

"Miss Pan, you worry too much! This is a matter between me and Longxiang Mountain. It has nothing to do with you..."

"Although I am not smart, I am not a fool. Brother Liu, you have done your best for me, grandfather, and the Pan family. Instead, we owe you a lot. I know in my heart that without you, the Pan family would not have the slightest chance of revenge even if they sacrificed everyone's life, and I would not have seen the day when Xu Ren got what he deserved. Brother Liu, you have done the impossible for the Pan family and avenged the impossible. At this point, Yuyin and the Pan family are very satisfied. Grandpa taught me since I was a child that 'life and death are not a big deal, morality is the most important thing.' "As his granddaughter, I must never repay kindness with grievances." Pan Yuyin did not give Liu Xunyi a chance to help her up. Although her voice was as thin as a mosquito's silk, her tone was as firm as a rock. "Brother Li is innocent, and he has done me a favor, and I don't want him to get into trouble. If you have other little-known grievances with Longxiang Mountain, Yuyin is really not qualified to interfere. But if your grudge against Longxiang Mountain is because of me... our Pan family, then I beg you to let Brother Li go, let Longxiang Mountain go, and let yourself go."

"This……"

Pan Yuyin's deep understanding of justice moved Liu Xunyi greatly, and also made Teng Sanshi, Xie Xuan and others, who were like ants on the hot pot, secretly happy. Si Wudao and Tang Xuan, who had been worried all the time, breathed a sigh of relief at this time as if they had survived a disaster.

"Since the murderer who murdered Grandpa is dead, I... will dare to make a decision for Grandpa and the Pan family."

Amid the tense and expectant gazes of the crowd, Pan Yuyin stared at Xu Ren's head without blinking, biting her lower lip with her pearly teeth. After a moment's hesitation, she made up her mind and stated in public, "From now on, the Pan family and Longxiang Mountain...are done with each other, and neither owes the other anything."

"call!"

Hearing Pan Yuyin's promise in person, the anxious Tang Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly moved away the two fingers that were lightly tapping on Li Haitang's eyebrows.

"Miss Pan is indeed the descendant of Mr. Pan Ba, and she is really kind-hearted." Xie Xuan praised sincerely, "Girl, do you know that because of your words, you saved more than just Li Haitang's life, and also saved the Central Plains martial arts world from a bloody catastrophe. You can be said to have benefited the martial arts world and your merits are immeasurable."

"As the saying goes, 'It is better to resolve a feud than to create one.' Miss Pan can understand the difficulties of the Holy Lord and Longxiang Mountain, I am very grateful." Although Si Wudao's heart has been half relieved, he is still worried before Liu Xunyi personally agrees to change his mind, so he strikes while the iron is hot to avoid more trouble. "According to Young Master Liu, Li Haitang's head...should I take it or not?"

"Si Wudao, no matter how bad Li Haitang is, he is still a member of Longxiang Mountain. How can you not care about his life or death?" Si Wudao kept asking Liu Xunyi questions. On the surface, he was pretending to be humble, but in the eyes of a discerning person, this move was somewhat like "getting an advantage and still acting cute", which immediately aroused Teng Sanshi's vigilance and dissatisfaction. He was worried that Si Wudao's ignorance of the current situation would once again arouse Liu Xunyi's murderous intentions, so he scolded him mercilessly, "The Pan family has already made a concession, and you should also know your limits! If you dare to push your limits again, I will take your head now, and I believe Yun Zhuiyue will not dare to say a word against it!"

"Too much talk will lead to mistakes!" Xie Xuan's eyes turned cold and he echoed in a deep voice, "Protector Si, you'd better be careful not to end up with a dog instead of a tiger!" Under the intimidation of Teng Sanshi and Xie Xuan, Si Wudao, who knew he was in the wrong, couldn't help but blush. However, due to the current situation and the identities of Teng and Xie, he didn't dare to say a word even if he was resentful.

Liu Xunyi ignored Si Wudao's grandstanding and his eyes remained on Pan Yuyin from beginning to end.

"Come on! Get up!"

Liu Xunyi supported Pan Yuyin who was kneeling in front of him, and apologized with guilt: "Miss Pan, I am sorry that I have put you in trouble because of my mistake."

"Brother Liu, the one who is really in trouble is you, not me."

"Anyway, thanks to you, Xunyi and Jianping didn't have to make a scene this time..." Xiao Zhirou gently stroked Pan Yuyin's back and thanked her sincerely, "You have helped Xunyi many times before, and now the three of us, mother and son, owe you another favor."

"Master Xiao, you are too kind! Compared with the help that Brother Liu has given me and the Pan family, what does the little thing I have done count for?"

"Ahem! Xunyi, this farce... it's time to end it." Teng Sanshi came close to Liu Xunyi and whispered a meaningful reminder, "If the stalemate continues, I don't know how many rumors will arise in the martial arts world."

Liu Xunyi looked around, facing the eagerness of Teng Sanshi and Xie Xuan, the urgency of Si Wudao and Tang Xuan, the nervousness of Xiao Zhirou, Yun Jianping and Pan Yuyin, as well as the expectations of Qin Ku, Tang Afu, Feng Wuxin and other onlookers. But he slowly raised his head, as if looking up at the sky, and stared for a long time before closing his eyes unwillingly, and let out a meaningful sigh.

"Ugh!"

A sigh, like grief, like anger, like unwillingness, like compromise... like there is a blockage in the chest and it is difficult to relieve it, and also like a fire burning in the heart but there is nothing that can be done.

"Looking for clothes..."

Before Xiao Zhirou could speak, Liu Xunyi waved his hand to interrupt her concern. He smiled at Yun Jianping, who was silently crying because of her excitement, and then reached out to touch her jade-like cheek. This small and intimate gesture immediately dispelled the suspicion and estrangement between the two siblings.

"elder brother……"

Liu Xunyi shook his head vaguely, as if telling Yun Jianping that everything was self-evident.

Then, he cast a complicated look at Pan Yuyin, a look that was worth a thousand words, but it seemed to have no other meaning. After several pauses, Liu Xunyi finally abandoned those pale and powerless words and said lightly: "Go and rest!"

Having said this, Liu Xunyi no longer paid attention to anyone. He suddenly turned around and walked towards the inner court with firm steps.

"Looking for clothes..."

"Don't follow me!"

An unquestionable voice, filled with unconcealable determination and anger, completely cut off the secretive thoughts and fantasies of everyone present, and at the same time rejected the concerns of close relatives such as Xiao Zhirou, Teng Sanshi, and Xie Xuan without distinction.

"I... am a little tired. I want to recuperate quietly for a few days. I hope you won't disturb me."

As if realizing that his tone just now was a bit stiff, Liu Xunyi added another sentence in a hurry.

Everyone could clearly feel that Liu Xunyi was burning with anger, and he was trying his best to control his emotions.

In a moment, Liu Xunyi's figure completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

Seeing that Xiao Zhirou was worried, Tang Afu quickly gave her a comforting look, and then without hesitation, he turned and walked into the inner courtyard, and then slammed the two heavy doors shut with a "bang".

"It seems that Yun Zhuiyue's cold water has dealt a heavy blow to Xunyi." Looking at the tightly closed door, Xie Xuan shook his head helplessly, "Originally he was full of energy and wanted to do something big, but he didn't expect that the first time after his rebirth... he slapped himself in the face. And it only took two days for him to go from active to passive. If it happened to anyone, I'm afraid they wouldn't feel good about it."

"It's okay!" Unlike Xie Xuan, Teng Sanshi was quite optimistic. "My grandson is still young, and it will be beneficial for him to go through this early. Using Longxiangshan to dampen his arrogance can also prevent him from showing off too much and causing jealousy and hatred."

"We can't help him. We can only wait for him to figure it out." While Xie Xuan was speaking, he looked at Si Wudao and Tang Xuan who were secretly rejoicing. His peaceful expression gradually turned gloomy. "Please go back and tell Saint Master Yun that this time we are speaking for Longxiang Mountain out of consideration for the overall situation, and not to oppose Xunyi. Now that we are in the same boat, we must understand the rules of this boat. Liu Xunyi will always be the most important person on this boat! Neither Xie nor Alliance Leader Teng want to see such despicable tactics of coaxing, intimidating and tempting him again. Otherwise..."

"If not, I will make Yun Zhuiyue and Long Xiangshan pay a price ten or a hundred times greater!" Before Xie Xuan finished speaking, Xiao Zhirou, whose sadness had turned into anger, could no longer suppress her hatred and issued an ultimatum to Long Xiangshan, "Also! Tell Yun Zhuiyue not to use my daughter as a shield anymore, or I will kill him myself!"
