Chapter 26: Long Yan’s Choice
Upon witnessing this scene, Nuo Qing was instantly consumed by terror.
He desperately wanted to escape, but with his limbs paralyzed, he could only crawl with great difficulty across the cold floor, leaving behind long smears of blood.
As he struggled, he pleaded for mercy, tears streaming down his face:
"Long Yan, I was wrong! If you want Nalan Yuer, I'll give her to you!"
"Please don't kill me! Once I return to the sect, I'll beg my father not to pursue today's events. I'll even ask him to accept you as a true disciple and teach you the Cloud Sect's secret techniques..."
Despite Nuo Qing's desperate promises, Long Yan remained unmoved. With nothing but disdain in his eyes, he stepped toward him without hesitation.
Then, under Nuo Qing's horrified gaze—
Swish—
The sword was raised—and then brought down.
In an instant, the sharp blade sliced through skin and flesh, piercing straight into Nuo Qing's heart.
Nuo Qing's face contorted in pain, his body convulsed, and his voice fell silent forever.
