Kong lowered his head and was silent for a while, then raised his head in the darkness and said: "The loser will have to commit seppuku under the cherry blossom tree, and for them...if the young master wins, then the young master Qianyu will hand over the chronic poison."

The antidote is to give up the position of heir forever, give up on you, and give up on life.”

If that's the case... I almost screamed out in surprise, didn't Qianyu risk everything on him?

The scene when I saw Qianyu for the last time came to mind. At that time, I was still nervous because of Teng Yi, and I felt guilty about him, so I never noticed that his eyes were unprecedentedly hurt and lonely, like a

The abandoned child had deep disappointment hidden in his cold and distant eyes.

It turns out that my words... not only failed to make him let go, but instead became the trigger for his duel with Sou??

If you think about it carefully, all this is unexpected but makes sense...

I don’t know how long I have been silent, but it has reached the darkest time before dawn. At this time, there is no moon in the sky, and there are no twinkling stars. There seems to be no difference whether I open or close my eyes. There are not many vehicles on the road, and the interior of the carriage is completely empty.

Silence.

Kong looked at the time in the car and couldn't help but frown, looking very distressed. After being deeply troubled, he finally let out a long sigh.

He shook his head and whispered to himself: "There is no time... They have already started."

"What?!" I couldn't help shouting, my heart sank suddenly, a bad premonition came to my mind, and my breathing became tense and rapid for a while.

Sora's gaze turned to the window, and his expression became serious, as if it was a matter of life and death: "Once this fierce battle begins... one of them will definitely disappear from this world forever."

My palms were covered with fine beads of sweat. I swallowed hard and asked cautiously: "Which one of them do you think has a better chance of winning?"

Sora lowered his head and said nothing. While waiting for his answer, I clenched my fists and my heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of my body.

No matter what name he says, my heart will definitely hurt, but now I still want to know what the outcome will be.

"In terms of swordsmanship, both of them are top masters, or the young master may be better, but now the toxins in his body have not been completely removed, and his body is not as good as before. In this way...the two are evenly matched.

No one can take advantage."

He looked up at me, as if waiting for me to say something.

Just like that morning when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, the evil-looking boy was bathed in the rain of crimson petals, asking me expectantly and sadly:

——If only one person can live between me and Sou, who do you want?

...

Who do I hope for?

A little sadness surged through my heart, and my whole body became numb.

All I can do now is silently pray that they will be unharmed before we arrive.

No matter which one I lose...it's not what I want to see.

...

When the gate of Yuan's house appeared in front of my eyes, the long-awaited feeling only increased the sadness in my heart at dawn.

Soon after, Sora took me quickly to the sword dojo.
