The inside of the Sword City was decorated with lanterns. Flaming lanterns hung high up in the mansion.

There were still a few days left before the Day of the Sword. The Sword City was already bustling with an extraordinary scene.

Many heroes had already arrived at the Sword City, including many famous figures from the martial arts world. They had also come to take a look at the birth of the divine tool. If possible, there were many other divine swords that wanted to seize them.

In the Sword City, Jian Liang was sitting alone in his bedroom. There was an eight-immortal table, a pot of wine, and a sword.

Jian Liang was drinking. He hadn't had a drink in a long time, but he suddenly felt like drinking. Walking out of the room, the lively atmosphere outside was completely different from his state of mind.

Jian Liang didn't want to go out and sit like this all the time. He drank a cup of wine and felt a burning sensation in his stomach.

"Brother, come out quickly. It's so lively outside." A crisp voice sounded in the room.

Jian Liang did not reply. He stared at his own sword, the gorgeous sword with six diamonds on it.

The door was pushed open and the sun shone into the bedroom. The diamond's reflection was like a needle pricking into Jian Liang's eyes. Jian Liang did not raise his head. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and raised another cup of wine to drink once more. However, his eyes were bloodshot.

"Bro, what's wrong? It's so fun outside. Come out with me." Luan'er said, her lips curling into a mischievous smile.

"Big brother, why aren't you saying anything? Why are you so pale? Nothing happened to you, right?" Luan'er looked at Jian Liang's pale face and asked worriedly.

"Big bro is fine, don't worry, come." Jian Liang raised his head and looked at his sister in a daze. He seemed to be slightly reluctant to leave her. "Luan Er, you've grown up. In the future, you must learn to take care of yourself and promise your brother, okay?"

Luan'er saw her brother's solemn expression and asked: "Big brother, why did you suddenly bring this up? With you here, I'm not afraid of anything. You'll take care of me, won't you? "You love me the most."

Jian Liang's lips were already dry and covered with a layer of dried skin. At the corner of his mouth, a hint of scarlet could be seen.

"But …" The corners of Jian Liang's lips were twitching. "But it's impossible for big brother to take care of you for the rest of your life."

"Big brother," Luan'er's voice became a little louder. "Did something happen to you?"

"Big brother …" No... "Of course." Jian Liang fell to the ground before he could finish his sentence. Blood was spurting out from the ground like a blossoming flower.

Luan'er saw that the situation wasn't right and immediately hugged her brother. She hurriedly turned him over. There was a three inch long knife scar on his back that went down to the bone.

Luan'er quickly tore open the corner of her clothes and wrapped a cloth around her wound.

"Big brother, what's wrong …" Luan'er immediately became flustered when she saw this. "Someone, something has happened." Luan'er hurriedly ran out of the bedroom.

Two hours later, the Sword City Elders gathered at the Sword Reverence Hall.

"Luan'er, what exactly is going on? Tell us in detail." A person asked Luan'er.

"I don't know either." Luan'er's eyes were red and her voice was still trembling a little as if she had not recovered. "I wanted to ask big brother to accompany me out to play, but as soon as I entered the door, big brother felt a bit strange. "Wuwu …" Luan'er seemed to be unable to continue.

"Judging from the wound, he was killed by a single blow. The blade is smooth and clean, definitely made by a top-notch expert. " An old man standing to the left of Jian Liang's corpse said.

"Liang'er usually treats people kindly, and she rarely goes out of the Sword City. How could she have met such an enemy?" Tears welled up in Jian Zhuo's eyes. "If I find out who did this, I will definitely tear him to shreds."

"My condolences, young city lord. Normally, he was kind and kind, but he ended up like this." A lean middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

"Young City Lord's martial arts shouldn't be weak, who can kill him in one move?" A white-haired old man analyzed, "The wound is on his back, there must be a sneak attack."

"Who can get close to the young city lord? I'm not going to let the city lord know."

"It must be someone close to the Young City Lord." The skinny middle-aged man said.

"Jian Fei, who do you think it is?" The old man asked.

"I don't know, this is just our guess, we can't be sure." The middle-aged man called Jian Fei turned around and said to Jian Zhuo, "City Lord. Now that the Sword City is about to open and countless martial artists have come, there must be someone behind this. If it was someone else, it would be hard to find the culprit, and if it was someone else, then it would be even more inappropriate. Otherwise, it would be a joke for the people of the martial arts world. "

Jian Zhuo said, "Jian Fei, what do you mean?"

Jian Fei said: "The matter of opening the sword cannot be wrong. The death of the Young Master must be investigated, but we must wait until after the Divine Sword opens the seal."

"I also know the importance of opening my sword," Jianzhuo said in grief. "This is the only thing I can do about it. However, after this matter is over, I will definitely avenge you. "

With that, he waved his hand, "Come, put Jian Liang's body in the back room."

The people who came with Jian Fei to the Sword Sacrifice Hall all left one by one, leaving only Jian Zhuo in the hall.

He was standing alone in the hall. There was also a sword and a sword that was wrapped in layers and layers of cloth. The sword was completely covered up by a thick layer of cloth from beginning to end.

Replacing it was a domineering aura, a domineering aura that looked down upon the world. The sword Zhuo said to the sword: "Good son, once this godly sword is in your hands, I believe that you will display the greatest of your power. It was born for you. However, it's a pity that you and I will never be father and son again. From the moment you fell, you and I had become mortal enemies. However, for the sake of the Sword City and for the sake of domination, I had no other choice.

Jian Zhuo silently looked at this sword, a devil sword that was about to appear.

As the opening day of the Sword City was imminent, such a thing actually happened in the Sword City. The crowd of heroes all sighed and in just a short while, there were some exciting news that came.

Sword Zhuo announced to the world: "The opening of the sword will be held as usual. On the day of the opening of the sword, the sword will be chosen as its master. This is the rule of the Sword City for the past hundred years.

As soon as the group of tyrants heard the news, they held the opening of the sword as scheduled and would not change because of the young city lord's matter. The group of tyrants came naturally to seize the sword, and since the opening of the sword did not change, there were no disadvantages for them, thus their moods returned to normal after a while. Occasionally, they would hear that the young city lord was kind and forgiving, and they could not help but feel a little sad, but it did not concern them, so they naturally did not take it to heart.

After the City Lord made an announcement to the world, the matter of the young city lord was gradually forgotten by everyone. People would always forget sad things that had nothing to do with them, but happy things that had nothing to do with them were still remembered clearly.

Jian Liang died? Everyone believed it to be so. However, some people knew that he was still alive. Furthermore, when he was alive, it was no longer a good sword. Instead, it was a Sword Demon.
