"He … lost just like that?"
Ouyang Jue felt as if he was struck by lightning.
Of course, what surprised him even more was the City Lord's attitude.
The high and mighty Moonless Raiment had always been cold and silent. When did she have such a childish attitude?
"Forget it."
Haruzen sighed in the Boundless Void.
"Third Young Master Shen, see you in Xuantian City."
He didn't say anything else and disappeared into the void.
The Black Iron City guard didn't dare to say anything and silently turned to leave.
Left … left?
The surrounding crowd was stunned. This domineering Xuantian City guard actually left just like that?
How did it end so anticlimactic?
They originally thought that it would be a huge calamity, but after Shen Zhenyi killed a Level Six True God Realm Decanus with his flying sword, the situation took a turn for the worse. It was too much for the eyes to take in.
And Moonless Raiment's admission of defeat made them feel that an era had come to an end.
The legend of the City Lord being invincible had been established in King City for thousands of years.
They never thought that it would end in such a way!
The Third Young Master Shen … Who exactly was he?
This was the question in the hearts of the King City's experts.
"City Lord …"
Ouyang Jue hurriedly went to Moonless Raiment and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
The Sword of Tears could be said to be Moonless Raiment's life. Sometimes, Ouyang Jue even felt that this might be the City Lord's original body.
Now that the sword was broken, he had an ominous premonition in his heart.
"I'm fine."
Moonless Raiment replied indifferently and waved her hand at Ouyang Jue.
"I have something to talk to the Third Young Master Shen alone. You don't have to be here."
"Talk alone?"
Ouyang Jue glanced at Shen Zhenyi. Shen Zhenyi's expression was calm as if he didn't feel proud of defeating Moonless Raiment at all.
… In fact, he even felt a little sad?
Ouyang Jue wasn't sure about his feelings.
At this moment, Moonless Raiment had already walked in front of Shen Zhenyi and looked at him quietly.
Shen Zhenyi looked at her and sighed softly. "Let's go."
He took a step forward. Moonless Raiment didn't say anything and turned to follow him.
"Master, be careful!"
Cynanchum Chinense felt that the atmosphere was a bit off, so she reminded him. This Moonless Raiment had attacked him with a single sword strike. After it was broken by Shen Zhenyi's sword, it was now trying to get close to him? Who knew if there was any conspiracy?
"Don't worry."
Shen Zhenyi waved his hand at her and left with Moonless Nichang side by side.
"Master is really …"
Cynanchum Chinense stomped her foot and turned to look at Princess Long and Zi Ningjun. Princess Long frowned slightly while Zi Ningjun's expression was normal.
"Who do you think the City Lord is? How did you get to know Master? "
She couldn't help but gossip with Princess Long.
Princess Long was also clueless, but she felt that no matter what Shen Zhenyi did, it was understandable.
Lord Zi Ningjun sighed softly. "No matter how we met, it's meaningless now."
"Huh?"
Cynanchum Chinense and Princess Long looked at each other, confused.
Shen Zhenyi and Moonless Nichang walked along the city wall.
On one side was the majestic iron city, and on the other side was the boundless desert. The moon shone coldly and the north wind blew.
"It's been a thousand years. How are you?"
Moonless Nichang was the first to speak.
Shen Zhenyi had always been a very quiet person and rarely took the initiative to express anything.
"Say that I'm well …"
He smiled, shook his head slightly, and nodded. "You can say that."
To him, it had been more than a thousand years. He had drifted through the ages and gone to the ends of the earth. He had experienced too much. But at least he was still standing here. That meant that he was well.
"That's good."
Moonless Nichang took a deep breath.
"When you left without saying goodbye, we were all very worried about you."
There was a hint of fear in her tone.
In fact, everyone knew that Shen Zhenyi was extraordinary. No matter where he went, he would have a foothold. But even so, their hearts were uneasy.
"I'm sorry."
Shen Zhenyi was silent for a long time. In the end, he only said two words.
"Why did you come back?"
Moonless Nichang didn't pursue the matter. She just smiled bitterly. "I've returned to this decaying world that will eventually perish."
The Seven Wounds World had reached its last light.
Humans huddled behind the city walls, and ferocious beasts wreaked havoc on the plains.
The space for survival was getting smaller and smaller. The destruction of this world was just around the corner.
— Anyone with a discerning eye could see this.
She thought that Shen Zhenyi had already left this world and gone on a more distant journey. But why … did he come back again?
"It's a coincidence."
Shen Zhenyi thought for a while and told her frankly.
It was a coincidence that he came here.
Like duckweed, he couldn't be sure where he would land. The only thing he could be sure of was his final destination.
"So that's how it is."
Moonless Nichang seemed a little disappointed, but she also felt relieved.
"Then when are you leaving?"
Like the wind, he came when he was supposed to and left when he was supposed to.
He had never stopped.
"I'm not leaving."
Shen Zhenyi looked at the endless horizon with a solemn expression.
"You're not leaving?"
Moonless Nichang trembled. "But … this world …"
The setting sun was infinitely beautiful, but it was close to dusk.
Her sword was like that.
This world was like that too.
"Since I'm here, I will naturally save the world."
Shen Zhenyi spoke indifferently as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
Moonless Nichang's eyes shone with divine light.
"If it's you … you can definitely do it."
A thousand years ago, they were ambitious and wanted to save this world. Unfortunately, ferocious beasts wreaked havoc, and they were depressed.
— If Shen Zhenyi was here, everything might be different.
"Yes."
Shen Zhenyi wasn't modest.
He seemed to have never felt that there was anything he couldn't do.
"Unfortunately …"
Moonless Nichang sighed softly. "How good would it have been if it was a thousand years earlier?"
If a friend from a thousand years ago heard this news, he wouldn't know how happy he would be.
Shen Zhenyi nodded silently.
"In this world, only time can't be reversed.
"Unless …"
He looked at the cold stars in the sky and heaved a long sigh of relief.
The greatest helplessness in the world was time. No matter who it was, they couldn't reverse the river of time and change what was destined to happen.
This helplessness made one's heart turn cold.
"Only time can't be reversed …"
Moonless Nichang followed his gaze and looked at the boundless night sky.
Her sigh was distant. "If only … there was a little more time …"
The moonlight sprinkled down, and her fair face began to gradually become transparent. She waved her wrist, and her palm turned into quicksand. Like fireflies, it slowly scattered in the darkness.
"To be able to … see you again.
To be able to … attack you.
"My Xin New Dollar … is enough."
Her body gradually faded as if she was going to melt into the night.
Shen Zhenyi looked at her, motionless like a rock.
