Chu Jingtian took a few steps back, distancing himself from the Wind Blade. With a flip of his palm, the Azure Sea Sword returned to his hand: "I can lose to you … but I definitely cannot die in your hands … You are not Cold Cliffs, you are not … If he wakes up and finds out that he killed me with his own hands, he will definitely die … Yes, Cold Cliffs, you have lost your father, lost your mother, and I, have also lost my parents. I have always known your feelings and emotions. Do you believe that I am the person who understands you the most in this world? Because I understand you, I will only be friends with you. Although you are used to being alone and cold, I know that you have always treated me as your friend very seriously. Other than me, you have many other friends. You are not just a single person. How could you be willing to lose your true nature like this … The current you, is not you at all … If you can hear me, then defeat the demon in your heart, and quickly wake up … "
"Ugh …"
"Ugh!!"
The blood-colored light in his eyes was like a blood-colored star, flickering between intense and dim at times. The Wind Blade in his hand fell to the ground, and his entire person suddenly knelt on the ground. He covered his head with his hands and howled like a wild beast … Indeed, that was not the voice of Cold Cliffs, nor should it be the voice of a human. This kind of voice could only make them think of a wild beast.
He was struggling, and it was unknown what he was struggling with.
Chu Jingtian clenched his hands tightly, walked forward a few steps, and pressed one hand on his shoulder. Suddenly, a red light shot out from Cold Cliffs's eyes. He suddenly let out a long howl that sounded like a devil's roar, causing Chu Jingtian to take a few steps back in shock. Then, he grabbed the Wind Blade on the ground, and with a terrifying aura, the blade cut through the air, pierced through space, and stabbed towards Chu Jingtian. The moment this blade appeared, even Yan Duancang, who was dozens of meters away, felt a suffocating pressure.
Clang!!
The green light flashed like lightning, and the Azure Sea Sword that Chu Jingtian hurriedly blocked was pierced through with a clang. Half of the sword flew out of his hand, while the other half flew in another direction. He flew very, very far away … just like Chu Jingtian's heart, which had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
The Wind-breaking Blade still didn't pierce into Chu Jingtian's body. It stopped the moment it touched his skin.
Divine Sword Vast Sea, broken!
"Cangming … Cangming …"
Chu Jingtian didn't seem to feel anything when the Breaking Wind Blade was pressed against his chest. It was as if he had suddenly lost his mind. His eyes lost focus and his gaze became unfocused. He didn't feel any pain in his right palm, which was bleeding from the impact … The Cangming Sea Sword was something he viewed as his life, something that was even more important than his life … No, to him, it couldn't be considered an item. It was his life companion, but it had been cut in half by his best friend.
Cold Cliffs, like him, was also dumbfounded. The red light in his eyes instantly dimmed, and the blue light that had disappeared, made him seem to have understood what he had just done. His body silently knelt down, but suddenly, he suddenly flew into the air and left into the distance. His speed was fast to an unimaginable degree … In an instant, he disappeared from everyone's line of sight, without a trace.
"Cangming … Cold Cliffs …" Chu Jingtian murmured softly. He blankly stared in the direction that Cold Cliffs had disappeared in, as if his soul had left his body.
Cold Cliffs, the Azure Sea Sword … His most important companion, his best friend, had left him on the same day. The world, seemed to have become empty at this moment. It was so empty that there was no longer any color.
Ye Wuchen also descended from the sky at this moment. Just as he was about to chase after the Cold Cliffs who had suddenly left, he suddenly saw the black bear lying on the ground. His pupils suddenly contracted, and he suddenly descended, squatting beside the black bear.
"Master!" When they saw Ye Wuchen appear, Third Donkey and the others immediately gathered beside him. However, their hearts were so heavy that they couldn't relax no matter how hard they tried. They looked at the black bear on the ground, and they could no longer suppress their tears. Each of them bit their lips and raised their heads, not letting anyone see their tears. They also desperately suppressed their sobs. Men did not easily shed tears … Ever since they had become men, this was the first time they had shed tears, and it was because they had reached the most heartbreaking point.
Ye Wuchen's hand left the black bear's body, and he clenched it tightly as he trembled. Finally, he let out a long sigh and closed his eyes. If he had only been seriously injured, he could have immediately saved him. However, the black bear had already lost all signs of life … His heart was not the only thing that had been injured. A dark power had entered his body through his wounds, spreading throughout his body and devouring his life force.
"Husband." Long Huang 'er threw herself into his embrace, and finally started sobbing. In front of him, she would never be the empress. Instead, she would be the young girl who had pestered him for a hug and wanted him to bring her out to play three years ago.
The corners of Yan Duancang's eyes were wet, but he immediately steamed them away with the Flame Soul Technique. He sighed and said, "Master, the black bear, he …"
"There's no need to say anymore." Ye Wuchen waved his hand, hugged the frightened Long Huang 'er tightly, and stroked her back lightly. "Tell the black bear's parents, Uncle Seventeenth and Aunt Seventeenth … Then, you guys can take care of everything."
Ye Wuchen's voice was filled with a deep helplessness. He let out a long sigh, and let go of Long Huang 'er. Carrying Little Mo beside him, he flew towards the direction that Cold Cliffs had just left in.
Ye Wuchen had discovered Cold Cliffs's abnormality very early on, and had often guessed something from Little Mo's words. However, evidently, the thing that Cold Cliffs was hiding was far more serious than he had imagined. It didn't seem to be just that his emotions had been cut off. It was more like … he was hiding a ticking time bomb that could make people stronger and go crazy at the same time.
"Little Mo, what did you sense again?" Ye Wuchen faced the cold wind, and asked calmly.
"I …" Little Mo hesitated, but didn't say it out loud.
"I always knew that there was something that you didn't tell me. Now, tell me. I can't keep making mistakes, "Ye Wuchen said faintly as he looked ahead. From Little Mo's flickering gaze, he knew that she was hiding something from him. With Little Mo's attachment to him, there must be a reason that she was hiding something that she couldn't say. He had never forced her to say it.
Little Mo finally didn't hide it anymore. She lowered her head and said, "The demonic aura on his body … is very familiar … At the very beginning, it was very unfamiliar, but it became more and more familiar, just like … just like …"
"Just like what?" Ye Wuchen frowned suddenly.
"Just like … just like my brother who was killed by Blood Night, one of the three Sacred Generals of Heaven."
Ye Wuchen, "!!"
He stopped in the air and looked ahead in a daze. This was because the demonic aura that was guiding Cold Cliffs had disappeared without a trace. He looked around with rapt attention. Every living being and every blade of grass couldn't escape his spiritual sense, but he couldn't find where Cold Cliffs was at all.
Little Mo didn't say anything else. She nervously curled up in Ye Wuchen's arms, and secretly looked at his expression from time to time. Ye Wuchen was quiet in the wind for a long time, and finally turned back.
The original peace was disturbed once again.
And would this be the beginning of another big mess?

Black Bear was buried under Death Abyss, the place where he was born. On that day, there was no evil sect in the Tianchen Continent. Because on that day, all the leaders of the evil sect, all the people who used to live under Death Abyss with Black Bear, no matter if they were men or women, old or young, no matter how important the mission was, they all returned to Death Abyss that day. There was no exception.
Black Bear was the first person to die after they came out of Death Abyss.
Hundreds of people gathered in front of Black Bear's grave, all of them with tears in their eyes. Some were already sobbing. People from the outside would never understand the kinship between the people of the world they lived in. Black Bear's parents stood in front of the grave, looking at his tombstone without any focus. His father didn't say a word for the whole day, and his mother had already cried her eyes dry. They only had this one son in their lives.
People offered incense one by one. On this day, Long Huang 'er was also brought by Ye Wuchen, and they bid farewell to Black Bear together. Black Bear's greatest interest when he was alive was to eat. They brought him everything he liked to eat when he was alive, and they piled up a huge pile. He died for Long Huang 'er, and whether it was Ye Wuchen or Long Huang' er, they would be grateful to him for the rest of their lives.
In just a few days, Chu Jingtian seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. He was once high-spirited, high-spirited, and did not know the taste of sorrow, but now he looked like an old man who had gone through too much. His hair was messy, and his face was covered in stubble. He stood quietly behind the crowd, and when everyone finished bidding farewell to Black Bear, he walked forward with heavy steps … and knelt down in front of Black Bear's grave.
No one spoke, and no one went to pull him up. All of them knew that he was atoning for Leng Ya's crimes and repenting for Leng Ya … Only in this way would he feel slightly better in his heart.
"Daniu." Black Bear's father, Uncle Seventeenth, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke at this moment. His voice was so hoarse that it made many people who knew him feel strange. "Get up, Cold Cliffs is Master's friend. Evil people can never be Master's friend. All of us know that he was just confused by something. We don't blame him … we really don't blame him … When he comes back, we will all forgive him. So, don't blame yourself, we really don't blame him. "
The hatred of her son's death was easily erased by the grieving father. Black Bear's mother sobbed uncontrollably and nodded heavily at Chu Jingtian. They grew up in a pure world, and they were always so kind and tolerant to their friends. Chu Jingtian turned around, and there were two lines of tears on his face. He suddenly knelt down in front of Uncle Seventeenth and his wife, and said softly, "Black Bear is gone … and I have no parents since I was young … From now on, you are my parents. I will take care of you for the rest of your lives, and take care of you when you are old …"
Whether it was those who had seen Chu Jingtian or those who had not, they were all touched by his pureness and kindness at this moment. This tall, stocky, and simple-looking genius swordsman had such a kind heart. For Black Bear, for his friends, for Black Bear's parents …
Therefore, Ye Wuchen was always willing to call him "Big Brother Chu".
Yan Seventeenth and his wife's heartstrings were fiercely tugged at. They hurriedly reached out to help Chu Jingtian up. Black Bear's mother nodded with tears in her eyes. "Good … good … we have a son again … we have a son again …"
After receiving their acknowledgment, Chu Jingtian kowtowed heavily on the ground three times. His lips moved, and he finally called out for the first time in his life, "Father … Mother …"
He had his own parents today, and Yan Seventeenth and his wife also had a son on the day they lost their beloved son. The scene of them crying in each other's arms made countless people cry quietly. The tear-jerking warmth also quietly diluted the deep sorrow.

Seven days after Black Bear passed away.
Chu Jingtian came to the Yeh family with a longsword on his back. From the scabbard and hilt, it was still the Blue Sea Sword — but it could only be the broken Blue Sea Sword. There was almost no possibility of the broken Blue Sea Sword recovering.
"Brother Ye, I have to go." Today, the first thing he did when he saw Ye Wuchen was not to smile. Although he tried very hard to smile like he used to, he could not smile no matter how hard he tried. His voice was no longer as lively as it used to be. Instead, it was filled with a deep sense of desolation.
"Where are you going?" Ye Wuchen asked.
"To find Cold Cliffs."
"…" He had already asked Nanhuangzong, the Northern Emperor Sect, and the people of the Evil Sect to pay attention to Cold Cliffs's whereabouts.
"I have to find him myself … I have to find him," Chu Jingtian said. From his low voice of loneliness, Ye Wuchen could hear an unchangeable determination.
"Go. Cold Cliffs might be waiting for you somewhere. But remember to come back often and let me know that you are safe," Ye Wuchen sighed in his heart and said softly. An unexpected change had turned Chu Jingtian into a different person overnight. It was really easy to change a person … It was easy to change mountains and rivers, but difficult to change a person's nature. That was because the thing that he cared about the most in his nature had not been touched.
"Mm … Brother Ye, take care. I will definitely bring Cold Cliffs back. Because he is like you, my best friend. "Chu Jingtian nodded and did not stay any longer. He turned around and prepared to leave.
"Big Brother Chu." Ye Wuchen stopped him and said, "Although the Azure Sea Sword has been destroyed, the way of the sword doesn't necessarily need a real sword. Fingers can be a sword, hair can be a sword, every part of the body, even the heart can be a sword …"
"Mm!" Chu Jingtian turned around and answered heavily. At this moment, a smile finally appeared on his face. But this was a smile that Ye Wuchen had never seen on his face before.
Chu Jingtian, a true genius of the way of the sword, an unsurpassable legend of the way of the sword that would be passed down for eternity in the future of Tian Chen. He was a god who was originally a human but was called the "Heavenly Sword God". From this moment on, after a transformation of his heart, he had truly stepped onto the path to the peak that belonged to him.
