Chapter 19 Responsibilities

Duan Songyang didn't speak, he looked at Ye Huai with a gentle and sad expression.

Ye Huai's hand holding Cangyang was steady, but his breath was very short.

"That..." Fang Yi, who has always been persuasive and not persuasive, hastily came up to smooth things over. He pressed Ye Huai's hand, turned his back to Duan Songyang and winked at Ye Huai, "Oh, what are you doing... Ye Huai, you used it just now." A lot of spiritual power, come here and let me see for you."

Ye Huai's wrist was held by Fang Yi, he looked over Fang Yi's shoulder to Duan Songyang, the Mahayana Sword Master was standing there, and his eyes were also looking at him.

Cangyang disappeared in his hand, Ye Huai was pulled away by Fang Yi, he turned his head around the corner, and saw Master Gu patted Duan Songyang on the shoulder, leading him to another direction, while the seniors and sisters of the genius doctor Gu organized other disciples Pick up the pieces.

It is not the first time that Ye Huai and Duan Songyang have asked for separation and termination of the contract in front of other people.

Not long after they got married, Ye Huai began to look for every opportunity to break up the marriage contract with Duan Songyang. No one from the elders said anything about the marriage contract, as if they were supposed to be Taoist couples, everything seemed to be Ye Huai lost his temper unilaterally.Later, Ye Huai became the head of the Guiyuan Sword Sect, and had disputes with Duan Songyang on sect affairs, so splitting the membership and resolving the contract became his catchphrase.So everyone knew that the head of the Guiyuan Sword Sect had a bad relationship with the Sword Master but became a Taoist couple. Many people guessed the reason, and most people finally accepted the reason that it was probably because they were arranged marriages since they were young. Only then did they become the well-known resentful couple in the cultivation world.

But Fang Yi had played with them since childhood, so he naturally knew that this was not the case.

Fang Yi took Ye Huai to a bamboo forest with strong wood attribute spiritual power, sat him down in a gazebo, and poured spiritual tea for him.

Ye Huai stared at the tea in a daze, Fang Yi sighed, and said: "You know what, just now Duan Songyang rushed out as soon as he opened his eyes, didn't even ask the exit, directly broke the Taoyuan realm, grandpa didn't react. "

Ye Huai didn't speak.

"Because you formed a bond too suddenly back then," Fang Yi continued, "plus what happened over the years, to be honest, I thought it was because the Duan family was greedy for your talent and wanted to keep you in the Guiyuan Sword Sect. That's why I came up with this trick. But Sect Leader Duan is not such a person, so I wondered if Duan Songyang used some means to force you to form a contract with him, but it doesn't seem to be the case now."

Ye Huai lowered his eyes.

Fang Yi leaned forward, stretched out his hands to hold Ye Huai's shoulders, turned him to himself, and said seriously: "Ye Huai, you like Duan Songyang, and he also cares about you. Why do you have to divide the nationality and terminate the contract? What happened 40 years ago? what?"

40 years... Ye Huai is a little dazed, he has been in bond with Duan Songyang for 40 years.

From, to now, 40 years later, according to the age of ordinary people, they have entered their twilight years, but because they are cultivators, their youth has been infinitely extended, but no matter how young they are, they can't hide the 40 years of vicissitudes they have experienced.

Ye Huai's eyelids trembled slightly, he pulled the corner of his mouth, and Fang Yi showed an ugly smile.

"It's because I like it that I have to divide the membership and terminate the contract..."

Fang Yi didn't understand, Ye Huai looked at him, and said softly: "Do you still remember that Guzhu Fang was urgently invited to Guiyuan Sword Sect back then?"

Fang Yi thought about it for a while, and he had an impression of this incident.

Because Fang Yi and Ye Huai have a good relationship, Fang Ren would take him with him every time he went to Guiyuan Sword Sect, but only that one time.

That night, Fang Ren received an urgent red letter from the representative of the Guiyuan Sword Sect. After Fang Ren read the contents of the letter, he hurriedly left the Valley of Miraculous Doctors. Fang Yi wanted to go there together, but He was ordered by Fang Ren to stay behind in the Valley of Miraculous Doctors with a rare and serious order.

That time Fang Ren stayed at the Guiyuan Sword Sect for a month. After he returned to the Valley of Miraculous Doctors, he kept silent about what happened to the Guiyuan Sword Sect. There was news that Ye Huai and Duan Songyang had formed a bond.

The bond between the two of them was very hasty and low-key, what to do with the bond ceremony, Fang Yi always thought the news was a rumor, until he saw Ye Huai and felt the strong aura of spiritual power belonging to Duan Songyang around him, so he was cautious He asked, "Did you really make a contract with him?"

At that time, he got Ye Huai's answer: "Ghost knows how, this thing will not be able to be removed for a while, but sooner or later, it will have to be solved!"

Then this "sooner or later" dragged on to today, 40 years later.

"That time... that time was related to you?"

Fang Yi didn't expect that the red letter had something to do with Ye Huai, because at that time, what could they do to make Sect Leader Duan send the red letter urgently?

"Duan Songyang and I stumbled into the forbidden area of ​​the sect by mistake," Ye Huai said in a low voice, "there is the sword intent guarded by Guiyuan Sword Sect's previous immortals, and I was injured by the metallic sword intent."

Fang Yi gasped.

Ye Huai has a wood-type spiritual root, gold can overcome wood, and his spiritual root was injured by the aggressive metal sword intent, which will almost ruin his future practice.

"So..." Fang Yi's hands subconsciously pulled Ye Huai's hand to feel his pulse, "Is it because of this reason that your cultivation has stagnated?"

Ye Huai pulled his wrist out of his hand and shook his head.

"No," Ye Huai said, "I am indeed deliberately suppressing my cultivation."

Fang Yi was puzzled: "Why?"

"Because of Duan Songyang," Ye Huai said, taking a deep breath, "Duan Songyang, he used his spiritual power to assimilate and bind the metallic sword intent through the connection of the marriage contract, preventing my spiritual root from being destroyed. It destroys."

After thinking about it carefully, Fang Yi realized that Duan Songyang is a metallic spiritual root, which belongs to the same golden sword intent. Logically speaking, he can slowly absorb and dissolve the same sword intent through the connection of the marriage contract. Dao Jianyi continued to destroy Ye Huai's wood attribute spiritual roots.

"So it's like this..." Fang Yi was thoughtful, "But... after so many years, he has reached the stage of Mahayana, hasn't that sword intent been absorbed yet?"

"Yeah, after so many years, haven't you finished absorbing that sword intent?" Ye Huai smiled helplessly, "Because that is not a metallic sword intent at all!"

The sudden turning point made Fang Yi confused: "But...didn't you just say..."

"That was what everyone, including your grandfather, Guzhu Fang, told me just now," Ye Huai said slowly, "but when I formed an alchemy later, I had the opportunity to see the things on the spiritual root, and I understood What did Duan Songyang pay for?"

Ye Huai and Duan Songyang were two talents when they formed a contract. At that time, Ye Huai had just stepped into the foundation building period, while Duan Songyang had just entered Jindan.

Originally, Ye Huai believed that the metallic sword intent on his spiritual root had been restrained by Duan Songyang, so he could practice as before, and he also began to gradually adapt to the feeling of cultivating two people with a marriage contract to mobilize their spiritual power.

But later, he found something was wrong.

Once his cultivation has improved, Duan Songyang will inevitably feel unwell for a period of time.Although Duan Songyang denied it every time, Ye Huai still found some clues.

But Duan Songyang kept saying that he was thinking too much, and the two had quarreled a lot because of this, but Duan Songyang seemed to prove that Ye Huai was thinking too much. At the end of the base period, he had already surpassed the Nascent Soul, reached the stage of Huashen, and even entered the Mahayana period. It took less than ten years. Gu Heng, the young master of Yanzong, has only just reached the end of Yuanying stage.

At the end of Duan Songyang's transformation, Ye Huai was ready to form a pill.

Decades have passed, Ye Huai still remembers what happened when he formed the alchemy.

Ye Huai, who never paid much attention to his cultivation, announced for the first time that he was going to retreat. He registered the retreat time with the school in advance, and came to the retreat cave prepared for him by the school.

But what no one knew was that before Ye Huai was about to form a pill, he left the level early.

It was a night, he endured the turbulent cultivation in his body, and the solidified spiritual roots in the foundation building period were constantly changing.

He came to Duan Songyang's residence, there was no one there, but he had bound the spiritual root with Duan Songyang, and he could feel that Duan Songyang was nearby.

Finally he saw the huddled figure beside the stream where they had first confessed their hearts.

That was Duan Songyang in the Transformation Stage, the young head of the Guiyuan Sword Sect, a new generation of genius sword cultivators, no one in his generation could match him.

Such a genius whose cultivation base can be called "powerful", those slender hands with thin calluses holding the sword are painfully inserted into the soil at this moment, such a determined person, whimpering unbearably, disappeared in the In the "squeak" sound of the breeze blowing the leaves.

Duan Songyang, who has always been vigilant, can't even notice that the Taoist companion is nearby.

Ye Huai stood behind the tree on the hillside, slowly supported the tree and knelt down, he covered his mouth, tears flowed continuously, the spiritual root in his body slowly took the shape of the golden core, at that moment, he felt the constant The golden spiritual power that was tightly protecting him loosened for a moment, revealing something with a curvature, it was by no means an invisible sword intent!

But Ye Huai didn't care to investigate carefully, because the loose golden spiritual power represented Duan Songyang's situation, and Duan Songyang was in extreme pain. He hurriedly disconnected his part of the spiritual power in the marriage contract, and the expected pain It didn't come, which didn't reduce Duan Songyang's pain in the slightest.

Duan Songyang's tense body went limp in an instant until the golden elixir was fully formed. Ye Huai hurriedly got up and ran down for two steps, but the golden spiritual power on the spiritual root was wrapped tightly again, and Ye Huai's footsteps stopped. Subconsciously lowered his body and hid behind the bushes.

Duan Songyang's limp body moved. He turned over and looked at the black sky divided by leaves. The moonlight was blocked by the dense leaves.

He gasped on the spot for a while, and looked in the direction of Ye Huai. The pain had passed, and both of them felt each other's presence.

But neither of them called each other's name, Duan Songyang gradually recovered his strength, he stood up, glanced in the direction where Ye Huai was, and then walked away slowly.

Ye Huai stayed where he was, looking at his spiritual root that had been re-wrapped by the golden spiritual power and had turned into a golden core. Now he knew that what was on his spiritual root was not just sword intent.

"Through the marriage contract, he transferred the pain that should have belonged to me because of that thing stuck on my spiritual root," Ye Huai said wearily, "but he didn't want me to know about it, and I didn't dare Let the cultivation base continue to rise, just forming the alchemy can make him in the transformation stage experience such pain, in the future..."

The growth of cultivation is inseparable from the changes of spiritual roots. The spiritual roots in the refining period are colored mist, the spiritual roots are solidified in the foundation building period, the spiritual roots are solidified in the Jindan period, the spiritual roots are transformed into babies in the Nascent Soul period, and the spiritual roots are transformed into spirits in the Deity period. The root is like a tree that expands and strengthens with the spiritual vein, and the spiritual root of the Mahayana period will combine the blood and the spiritual vein into one.The changes in Yuan Ying's spiritual root were limited to the spiritual root itself, and Duan Songyang could experience that kind of unbearable pain just like that, and Ye Huai didn't dare to think about it later.

And this kind of pain is irreversible, because Duan Songyang's cultivation base is higher than Ye Huai's, and in this contract, his will dominates.

After a while, Fang Yi said, "Although I really don't want to admit it, I must say that he really loves you..."

But Ye Huai smiled wryly and shook his head: "No, it's not love, it's just responsibility."

Ye Huai did not tell Fang Yi that the reason why he was injured was because of saving Duan Songyang from the golden light with golden sword intent.

He also didn't tell Fang Yi that the night he formed a bond with Duan Songyang, because the long-lasting pain in his spiritual root was relieved, and he also got a brief sobriety. empathy.

In such a short period of time, he heard Duan Songyang say——

"No liking, only responsibility for Ye Huai."

"From now on, he is my responsibility."
