  Chapter 725: The Deadline
  When the girl who lived alone in the tower had someone to accompany her, the long and lonely years finally came to a fulcrum.

  Whenever Xiying wanted to see each other, he would climb up the tower alone and say softly: "Let it rain."

  Then in the heavy rain that swept the entire Forgotten City, Xitian would climb up alone. Gaota chatted with her about the whole rain, shared the delicacies provided to her, and then left quietly when the rain was about to subside.

  They were originally twin brothers and sisters, and they should be together all the time, but the world separated them from each other, and then reunited in this way.

  The emotion between blood will only become deeper when it is cut off and then glued back together.

  Time passed like this, and Xiying's deadline was getting closer and closer. She had grown into perhaps the most beautiful girl in the world, with a stunning face every time she looked and smiled, while Xitian gradually became a young member of the Nihuang clan. The strongest man of the generation, the completely undisputed successor to the next patriarch.

  Seeing that the old patriarch is getting older and withered, this possibility is getting bigger and bigger.

  But Xitian doesn't feel happy at all, because as his strength grows, he has a deeper understanding of what happened to him and Xiying, and understands how naive the promise he made to the girl in front of him was. ridiculous.

  And now he actually no longer needs to take advantage of the heavy rain to find his sister who is imprisoned in the tower. Instead, he can openly spread his wings of flame and fly in to talk to her, even carrying a few of her favorite things in his hand. Favorite snacks.

  After all, Xitian now symbolizes the future of the Nihuang clan, and as the old patriarch ages and his end is approaching, basically all affairs are slowly being handed over to Xitian.

  And this young man has always done these things extremely well, with people's support and expectations on his shoulders, and his future is boundless.

  Xitian still remembers that day, when his father found him and told him that he would officially hand over the position of patriarch to him in advance. From then on, he would lead the Nihuang clan to new glory, and the old patriarch would find A secluded residence with no one around, where you can quietly welcome your own death.

  This clan leader dedicated his life to fighting for his clan, with some selfishness, some desires, some fears, and some greed. But in the end, under his leadership, the Nihuang clan spent thousands of years peacefully. They also passed through the most dangerous moments of successive great changes, and what was handed over to Xitian was a vibrant ethnic group with a bright future.

  At that moment, the old patriarch thought that he could leave safely, but he did not expect that the seed he had planted would finally bear its own bitter fruit.

  When Xitian went back, he wanted to tell Xiying the news, telling her that after he had completely mastered the power of the entire Nihuang clan, there was only the last step left to save her.

  But he only saw Xiying's figure lying on the tower.

  This girl who was born as a god, this princess on the tower, this obedient giant, this Xitian’s sister.

  She finally reached the end of her life when she was eighteen years old, just as everyone expected. She could not delay or end it.

  But she was still so well-behaved, putting all her illness and pain into her dying body, leaving her smile to others.

  Death is as quiet and beautiful as autumn leaves.

  Everyone knows that they will die when they are born, but few people can know their own death date as well as Xiying, and can treat it calmly.

  But if someone can do it, that means someone can't.

  Xitian was unwilling to accept it. He had obviously promised the other party that he would save her fate, but when he did nothing, the girl died quietly. She did not even blame him before she died and did not fulfill her promise.

  But Xiying didn't blame him, it didn't mean that Xitian wouldn't blame himself.

  He gently carried his sister on his back, and then went to find his father who had just decided to pass on the position of clan leader to him in the next few months.

  Tell him that he wants to get the phoenix remains stored in the Nihuang Underground Palace.

  Because under the whole world, the only treasure that Xitian can think of that can save Xiying is the phoenix slough buried deep in the deepest part of the Nihuang underground palace as the treasure of the clan. And if the phoenix true blood in the phoenix slough can be Injecting it into Xiying's body will undoubtedly extend her life for a few more months.

  Yes, a few months. This can be said to be the most rare treasure in the world for people in the world. Using it on Xiying can only make her live a few more months in vain.

  But Xitian can't control that much.

  At this moment, he just wanted Xiying to continue living.

  There is no doubt that the old patriarch rejected Xitian.

  Because obviously, this is an absolutely uneconomical, irrational and even extremely stupid idea.

  Since the old patriarch was able to decisively give up Xiying after weighing the pros and cons and imprisoning her in a high tower to become the clan's magic weapon for cultivation, of course he is not willing to waste what may be the most precious treasure in the clan for a daughter who is destined to die. treasure.

  But Xitian came to her father not to plead, but to tell him.

  After being rejected, he turned around and left his father's palace, then carried Xiying on his back and entered the Nihuang Underground Palace non-stop, walking resolutely down the road that he had actually traveled countless times.

  Originally, in Xitian's plan, the Phoenix Slaughter was a treasure used to save Xiying, but in his original idea, he should have a few more months, until he officially assumed the position of clan leader, and when his The father left the tribe and returned to his own elephant grave to die like an elephant.

  At that time, he had control over the entire ethnic group, so of course he could quietly hand over the phoenix remains to Xiying for use.

  But I didn't expect that Xi Ying died several months earlier than originally optimistic estimates.

  Only then did Xitian understand that the reason why she came out a few months earlier was because in the past ten years, Xiying had been using her speech spirit to create rainstorms to create opportunities to meet him.

  It’s just that there are many things that can never be repeated.

  Therefore, Xitian could only choose the most stupid and reckless way to unreasonably create a road ahead where there was no road ahead.

  He marched and fought all the way in the Nihuang Underground Palace. Even as a member of the same clan, and even many elders who had high hopes for him, they never thought that this boy, who was only eighteen years old, could grow to this level in such a short period of time. situation.

  He moved forward, fought, and won, until he finally reached the final door.

  There, he met his old and dying father, and this old man was his last enemy here.
