The heroine Jiangshan

Chapter 209 Use my blood to reveal my true heart
On the day Zhao Xuan came, it was raining heavily, the wind was blowing and the grass was blowing, and the world seemed to be in chaos.

He came riding the wind, his horse's hooves clattered, and the black cloak rolled up a puff of water, splitting the rain curtain and falling in front of Yun Ruochen.

It only took 20 days from when Nie Shen left the formation core to deliver the letter to when he arrived.

It was almost the shortest time. With Zhao Xuan's physical strength, even if Nie Shen accompanied him after leaving the customs, it was already the limit.

Basically, he rushed over as soon as he received her letter.

"...Brother Xuan."

Yun Ruochen held an umbrella, raised his arms to support his head, and was busy taking out a towel to wipe off the rain on his face.

Zhao Xuan was completely drenched, Gu Che and Ye Shenyan hurriedly dragged him into the small cave that was used as a temporary camp to change his clothes and dry his hair.

This time Zhao Xuan didn't bring any servants with him, and went out of Beijing overnight alone.He said that the people in the capital did not know about his departure.

I didn't tell Chu Qingbo the reason for leaving Beijing, he said flatly.Then, he asked Yun Ruochen: "When are you going to clear the formation?"

Yun Ruochen naturally expected that Zhao Xuan would come, but he never thought that he would come so quickly, simply and directly.

It's been a long time since she had such a straightforward conversation with him, probably... more than a year?
In the name of allies, they worked hard for the families behind them. They talked like playing chess, and they fought every step of the way, each leaving a way out.

Facing Zhao Xuan's calm face, Yun Ruochen suddenly remembered the Spring Hunting Rebellion several years ago.That day, she fled with Yun Yao in the chaotic forest and met Gu Che and Zhao Xuan unexpectedly.

Zhao Xuan was seriously injured, but because Xiao Jin signaled to Gu Che that Yun Ruochen was nearby, he ignored his own injury and worked hard together with Gu Che to find her in the forest.

At that time, he also looked at her calmly and called her softly: "Sister Chen'er."

"You're surprised? Chen'er."

Zhao Xuan's voice brought her back to reality from her memory.She opened her lips, but she was speechless for a moment, with so many thoughts, she didn't know where to start.

"... After receiving your letter, I made arrangements for everything that night and left the city by myself."

"I know you won't make up stories to lie to me... Although I am shocked, it turns out that the ancestors of our Zhao family actually played such a miraculous move..."

Zhao Xuan paused, did not explain anything, and only said: "...In short, I decided to help you dismantle the formation. About the Zhao family...you won't tell anyone else."

His tone seemed to be making some kind of deal, with a businesslike look, but Yun Ruochen's emotions surged up and down, and his eyes gradually turned red.

Suddenly, she leaned forward and gently hugged Zhao Xuan.

Not only did Zhao Xuan not expect it, even Nie Shen and the others beside him were extremely surprised. Ruochen is...

"Brother Xuan..."

"Thank you."

"Really, thank you, thank you, you don't have to deliberately... say those words..."

"Chen'er understands."

Zhao Xuan was still so introverted, unwilling to reveal his true self, preferring to make Yun Ruochen feel that this was an exchange of benefits.However, Yun Ruochen already understood everything from his eyes.

Zhao Xuan's shock, his pain, how many inner struggles he experienced in a very short time, and what kind of determination was needed to make a quick decision.

Between hate and love, he chose the latter.

It's love.

He loves her deeply, in his own way.In fact, everyone around her, why not?

Nie Shen's love is protection, Ye Shenyan's love is companionship, Gu Che's love is growth, Zhao Xuan's love...is betraying the family for her.

The layout of the Zhao family for 300 years was abandoned by him personally.

"I……"

Zhao Xuan raised his hand, wanting to hug her back, but he hesitated to put it down.He looked at the few people around him and found that they had no hatred or jealousy towards him. Although their expressions were different, they all showed...gentleness.

Naturally, this gentleness is not for him, but for Yun Ruochen.

"I voluntarily, don't think too much about it."

He cleared his throat twice, with unseen embarrassment on his fair face, but he still didn't say anything nasty and sensational.

At the moment when Yun Ruochen hugged him, he was finally relieved.

The previous entanglement, discomfort, and hard work on the road are not important anymore.

He had lost her once—although there was no "loss" in any form, but they knew each other well.Since then, he has never felt happier.

Carrying the heavy responsibility of the family to move forward, he thought that he would sacrifice willingly and give without complaint or regret.But in the end, he realized that it wasn't like that.

He would rather see her sincere smile.Just like on that mid-autumn night many years ago, when he handed her a juicy bright red pomegranate, her beautiful little face had a brighter smile than the bright full moon.

Once again standing at the fork between the family and her, his final choice--followed his own heart.

No matter what their relationship will become in the future, at least now, when she needs him the most, he doesn't want to be absent anymore!

After resting overnight, they entered the formation core in the rain the next morning.

"It's spectacular."

Zhao Xuan was amazed at the magic circle set up by his ancestors.Such a powerful arrangement, why has he never heard of it from his elders?I feel that my father probably didn't know the existence of this magic circle either.

They discussed it last night, but they didn't come to a unified conclusion as to why the Zhao family didn't pass on the secret.Is it because they are afraid that future generations will have a psychological burden?Or are you afraid of revealing the secret?Or, the premise of the existence of this magic circle is that it cannot be known by others?

Too much time has passed.However, this is not important, what is important is how to untie this array.

"These days, we've pretty much finished the arrangements." Yun Ruochen explained to everyone the result of her and Ye Shenyan's half a month's work.

They calculated the movement trajectory of the mana needed to solve the formation, and placed magic weapons where necessary.As long as the most central crystal pillar is infused with mana, it will spread along these trajectories towards the other seven crystal pillars, and then invisibly radiate to the entire magic circle.

"Finally, break down."

Yun Ruochen stuck out his tongue, and vividly conveyed the result to everyone in four words.

The tasks of Nie Shen, Gu Che, and Ye Shenyan are also very important. They must ensure that Yun Ruochen and Zhao Xuan can withdraw smoothly after the formation is dissolved and before the formation collapses.

When they came in, although they didn't encounter any mechanism, they also passed through three irregular big stone gates.The three gates are all supported by the back dragon stone. Once there is any abnormal movement in the cave, it is necessary to pass through these three gates in a very short time to return to the ground.

The three of them just happened to be guarding a door, Ye Shenyan, Gu Che, and Nie Shen from outside to inside. After all, the strongest Nie Shen should be kept closest to Yun Ruochen so that he could rescue him at any time.

Yun Ruochen and Zhao Xuan stood side by side in front of the most central crystal pillar.The two who had never changed their faces in the face of thousands of troops were a little nervous at the moment.

The method of solving the array is simple and simple, but complicated and complicated.Why Yun Ruochen said it was Zhao Xuan, it was because he was the only remaining descendant of the Zhao family.

To unravel this magic circle, a powerful warlock must inject the blood of Zhao's descendants and the warlock's own blood into the center of the crystal pillar, and make contact with the resentful spirit of Zhao's century-old buried below.Then, the resentment of the crystal pillar can be resolved, and the core will also fail.

Moreover, it cannot be blood with resentment or death, but must be vibrant and alive.It also means that coercing or killing Zhao's descendants can only increase the resentment of the magic circle, and it is absolutely impossible to disintegrate.

"Maybe the ancestors designed it this way..."

Zhao Xuan smiled and said, "Let the descendants of the Zhao family choose for themselves."

Choose to continue to hate the Yun family who has taken away the world from you, or give up the hatred.

For Zhao Xuan, it is the choice of family or sweetheart.

"With my blood, I can tell my true heart." At this moment, Zhao Xuan felt a little bit of happiness in his heart.He finally had a chance to prove to his beloved girl...

His sincerity.

The slender right index finger was pricked by him, blood dripping out drop by drop.At the same time, Yun Ruochen also cut his finger.

The blood of the two was taken over by her with a jade ring.This jade ring is one of the magic weapons she has kept for many years.

Zhao Xuan saw that Yun Ruochen raised his hand high, embedded the jade ring somewhere in the crystal pillar, squeezed his hands into a strange hand formula and pressed it on the crystal pillar.

At first, he didn't feel anything, but slowly, under the illumination of the night pearl, Zhao Xuan noticed that the crystal pillar was gradually changing!

The originally transparent and colorless crystal column began to turn red from a certain point in the center, and it became more and more red!
The blood red color is like ink dripping into a pen wash, and it spreads towards the crystal column, dyeing the entire crystal into blood crystals!
Streams of sweat dripped from the corners of Yun Ruochen's forehead, and he said the Fa Jue faster and faster, so fast that Zhao Xuan couldn't even hear what she was saying.

"Crack, click..."

The crystal pillar is broken!

"Get out of the way!"

Yun Ruochen pulled Zhao Xuan's sleeve quickly, and the two quickly backed away, their backs touching another pile of crystals.

"Ah, this one is also cracked..."

"Let's go, the mana is starting to work!"

Yun Ruochen probably expected this kind of situation, so he was not too nervous, and told Zhao Xuan to retreat quickly.Although it seems that the dismantling of the formation was successful, but now is not the time to be happy!

"Ruochen!"

Nie Shen was in a hurry, so he flew from outside the formation, pulling Yun Ruochen and Zhao Xuan with each hand, which meant that they were on top of a certain crystal pile, and then retreated.

His qinggong is obviously much better than these two, and it is faster to run with the two of them than the two of them retreat by themselves.Once the three of them reached the pit, they ran away without saying anything!

"Quick, quick, the door here is shaking!"

Gu Che yelled, he was already relying on his own brute force to push back against the Dragon Stone, and Shimen was about to fall to his bed.

At this time, the entire cave began to shake, like an earthquake, and the situation was extremely dangerous.

Fortunately, they all had good skills, they exited the second stone gate in the blink of an eye, and quickly came to the third stone gate to join Ye Shenyan.

They almost fled all the way, and the cave collapsed all the way behind.Dust is everywhere, gravel is flying around, and danger is everywhere!
"The entrance to the cave is just ahead!"

Gu Che shouted happily.

Nie Shen was afraid that Yun Ruochen would not run fast, so he was already running with her in his arms.He and Yun Ruochen rushed out of the cave first, before they had time to mention it and jumped into the distance, suddenly...

A sharp arrow broke through the heavy rain and shot towards Yun Ruochen's face!
