Luo Ke Di and Ji Mo had also made breakthroughs. Moreover, for the two of them, this was definitely a huge breakthrough!
They had broken through to King Level!
This achievement was enough to show disdain for the whole world. However, it had suddenly become 'only' King Level because of Dong Wu Shang and Gu Du Xing!
They would be considered rare geniuses in the Upper Three Heavens if they had such cultivation at their age! However, both of them were only depressed at this moment.
Rui Bu Tong drooped his head as if he had lost his parents. He had broken through the least among his brothers. He was now an eighth grade King Level Expert …
This had made Rui Bu Tong so depressed that he almost went crazy!
He had been a seventh grade King Level Expert a few days ago, and they had only been fifth grade King Level Experts. So, he had flaunted his prowess. However, he hadn't expected that such good days would last for less than a month. And, he had once again become the bottom.
How could Rui Bu Tong endure this?
Tan Tan staggered out, and sat cross-legged beside Chu Yang. He was unconsciously chewing a grass root in his mouth. His eyes were somewhat perplexed and scattered. It seemed as if he didn't care about the fierce battle in front of him.
"Are you okay? How was it? What happened that day? "Chu Yang asked.
Tan Tan looked at the void in a daze. It seemed as if he hadn't heard Chu Yang's words.
A long time passed …
"Senior Brother …" Tan Tan lowered his head, and said in a low and hoarse voice.
"What's wrong? Tan Tan? " Chu Yang was somewhat surprised. His heart tightened. He hadn't seen Tan Tan so listless even during the most difficult times.
Moreover, Tan Tan rarely called him 'Senior Brother'. He had always called him by his name. However, it proved that the matter was very serious if he had called him 'Senior Brother'. And, Tan Tan was very serious about it!
A loud 'clang' was heard in the field. The Black Saber and the Black Dragon Sword had fiercely clashed. The sword-light was like a long dragon as it soared high into the sky. The saber-light was like the Milky Way as it floated in the clear sky for thousands of miles!
The two men separated as soon as they came into contact. Then, the saber-light and sword-shadow gradually turned into a white light, and a black energy, and entangled together.
It was obvious that the Sword Emperor and the Saber Emperor had fought to their heart's content after their breakthroughs. Moreover, both of them had gradually grasped the mysteries of the Emperor Level Realm! Currently, it was being further verified and consolidated.
Tan Tan's complexion became increasingly gloomy under the illumination of the sword and saber's radiance.
"What's going on?" Chu Yang's face slowly became serious.
"Senior Martial Brother, have you ever felt that I … was somewhat abnormal since I was a child?" Tan Tan laughed in a self-deprecating manner. His voice was so low that it made Chu Yang feel somewhat distressed.
"Perhaps there are some things that are not very normal … But no matter what, you are my good junior brother, my good brother!" Chu Yang pondered for a moment. Then, he slowly said, "Besides, why should we care about other people's opinions when we're living in this world? Isn't living a carefree and happy life better than anything else? "
Tan Tan had become so serious. So, Chu Yang had also become serious. Tan Tan's behavior was strange, but he wasn't stupid. His behavior had always been somewhat abnormal. And, Tan Tan was also aware of this. So, it would've hurt Tan Tan if Chu Yang had insisted that his behavior was completely normal.
"In fact, I also know that I'm abnormal … But, I don't know what's going on."
Tan Tan sighed and said, "In fact … I've felt that I was somewhat abnormal since we were adopted by Master … That's because I was still an infant when Master adopted me. Master had carried me out of a cave. Later on, Master had said that I had been abandoned. But, I knew that Master wouldn't have found me in that kind of cave on the precipice of a mountain if he hadn't gone there to pick some herbs to rest. Ordinary people wouldn't have left their children in that cave if they wanted to abandon them. Or, they would've thrown them down the cliff. So, I wasn't abandoned … "
"Eh? How … how do you know all this? "Chu Yang suddenly became somewhat shocked. He had a creepy feeling. Tan Tan wouldn't have known about these things if Meng Chao Ran hadn't mentioned them. But, how did he know?
"Master did it for my own good. He wanted me to have a thought in my heart. He wanted me to imagine that I still have relatives in this world. Even if I hate them … it's also a kind of concern … Master had good intentions," Tan Tan said in a low and deep voice.
Chu Yang grieved in his heart. Tan Tan's speculation was Meng Chao Ran's true thoughts. Meng Chao Ran had always quietly arranged his disciples' affairs to the best of his ability. In fact, he had already made plans for the future of the two of them more than ten years ago … But, he had never said anything about it.
"I didn't know at first. But, I don't know what's going on these past few days. It seemed as if I had a dream. I dreamt that Master had carried me out of the cave when I was an infant. Then, we returned to the Purple Bamboo Forest. There was a child crawling on the ground there. He was two years older than me … and that was you! I dreamt that you went down the mountain. Master and I were in the mountain. Master and I were being chased by Diwu Qing Rou's men … "
Tan Tan's expression was very strange as he said, "This matter is very strange. Because, I knew that this dream was real in the end … Because, we had experienced everything after that. "
Chu Yang was shocked!
He was dumbstruck as he looked at his junior martial brother. He had never thought that such a bizarre thing could happen in this world!
"This dream … I dreamt that we entered the cave for three days. Then, it disappeared. But, I woke up and discovered that … this wasn't a dream. Because, I wasn't asleep. I was meditating! "Tan Tan's expression became even more strange. It seemed as if he had seen a ghost.
"I always knew that you were good to me. But, I found out from the dream that you had been coaxing me since I was two years old. You always let me do whatever I wanted … Chu Yang, Senior Martial Brother … "Tan Tan's eyes were somewhat red," I will remember your kindness to me for the rest of my life! "
Chu Yang opened his mouth. But, he didn't know what to say. He could only take a deep breath. Then, he exhaled deeply. He felt that his mood was violently churning …
[Yes, I care about Tan Tan very much. I care about Master very much.] [It's like this in my previous life!] [It's because of Tan Tan's accidental death and Meng Chao Ran's disappearance in my previous life that I had resolutely embarked on the Ruthless Sword's path of revenge …]
"I've looked like this since I was a child. I'm very different from you. I also know that I'm very ugly!" Tan Tan chuckled, "I know that I'm not good-looking. At least, I'm not good-looking in the eyes of normal people like you. But, you know … I've been thinking that I'm handsome for so many years. And, it's not because I'm fooling around!
"It's because I really think that I'm very handsome! In fact, this kind of handsomeness carries a strong self-confidence! Moreover … no one has ever been able to attack my self-confidence! " Tan Tan mischievously laughed in a strange manner, "I still think that I'm very handsome even if they curse me viciously!
"This isn't blindness. And, it's absolutely not an illness!" Tan Tan earnestly said, "It's because I truly believe that there's no second person in this world who's more handsome than me!"
Tan Tan's expression was very serious! His voice was very serious. He was absolutely not joking.
Chu Yang gradually became serious.
"Therefore, I feel that I'm different from the people of this world!" Tan Tan finally said with difficulty, "I've been having this feeling recently … that I don't belong to this world! This isn't my world!
"I'm a hundred times more confident that I'm handsome. But, that's because … I've never looked at myself with the eyes of this world!
"It seems that there's something restless and awakening inside my body of late …" Tan Tan sighed in melancholy, "I don't know what it is … but, I can feel that it's very dangerous …"
"If this world is not my world, then where is my world?" Tan Tan turned his head, and looked at Chu Yang with his clear black and white eyes. His voice contained a sense of loss, sadness, and fear. He was afraid of the unknown …
Chu Yang firmly looked at Tan Tan. And, his heart suddenly shook at this moment!
That was because he had clearly discovered that there seemed to be something else in Tan Tan's pupils. It seemed … as if it was another world. Moreover, a radiant sun, a crescent moon, and specks of starlight had suddenly appeared in this vast and desolate world …
"Bang!" Another earth-shaking sound was heard from afar!
The battle between the Saber Emperor and the Sword Emperor had reached its climax!
However, these two martial brothers were facing each other in silence on this side.
"Don't let your imagination run wild." Chu Yang patted Tan Tan's shoulder, and comforted him, "You're you. You're Tan Tan. You're my junior martial brother, my brother! You and I both have drifting lives. You've always regarded me as your elder brother, and I've always regarded you as my flesh and blood compatriot … Tan Tan, you must pull yourself together! "
"But … I can feel that it's real! It's real! "Tan Tan somewhat helplessly looked at Chu Yang," Can you feel it? I can eat the inner cores of spirit beasts without exploding! I have a high fever that can even melt stones. But, nothing has happened to me … I can't eat anything now. I can only eat the inner cores of spirit beasts … "
Tan Tan sorrowfully looked at Chu Yang, "Senior Martial Brother, Chu Yang … I, I … can I still be considered a human?" Tan Tan's eyes flickered with an extremely destructive radiance …
[Can I still be considered a human?]
Chu Yang was speechless for a moment. Indeed, Tan Tan couldn't be considered a human in any aspect apart from his human body …
But, what could Chu Yang say?
"Don't think too much." Chu Yang turned Tan Tan's face around, and made him look straight at him. Then, he earnestly said, "Tan Tan, think about me … think about your Master. What would happen to us if something were to happen to you? How sad would your master be? Go and do your thing. Practice your martial arts! Don't forget that your master and master's wife have been separated for many years. So, we must fulfill our master's wish! "
"I want to rush to the heavens! You're my brother. So, it's your responsibility to help me fulfill my wish! "Chu Yang eagerly said," Tan Tan, you must help us! You mustn't do anything stupid! "
Chu Yang's heart ached as he saw the despair in Tan Tan's eyes. So, he had no choice but to put the blame on him in order to appease him. He would slowly think of a way later.
Tan Tan looked at him in a daze for a long time. Then, he nodded and said, "Chu Yang, I feel that I'm in danger. I'm afraid that I'll hurt you at some point … I'll leave on my own if I'm still conscious at that time. So, don't look for me!"
He paused and said, "You … kill me if I'm no longer conscious!"
He looked into Chu Yang's eyes. Then, he suddenly knelt down, and kowtowed three times in a row. Then, he straightened up, "Senior Martial Brother, I beg you. Promise me! If that day really comes, then kill me! Kill me! "
Chu Yang's entire body shook. He was dumbstruck!
