Back then, when Song Ci bade his farewell, he once said, “This is a road of no return.”

He knew that better than anyone else. That was why he took ‘Song’ as his surname, ‘Ci’ as his name, and started his journey on this path. Although he had looked back many times along the way, afraid and confused, he had never taken a step back.

Even if all the bones in his body were broken, he had to stand upright.

Tu Shan Yue said in disdain, “I have no interest in knowing the name of a man who’s about to die.”

“But I have to tell you.” Song Ci conversed with him calmly. “I am Song Ci, not Tu Shan Rong Bai.”  

“So?” Tu Shan Yue could not figure out his intention.

“I just want you to know that if Tu Shan Rong Bai were the one standing before you, you wouldn’t even have the chance to touch him…” Song Ci seemed to have some kind of obsession with it.

Even under such circumstances, he still could not tolerate anyone misunderstanding or despising Rong Bai. He even went to the extent of using himself as an example for comparison.

Whether or not this dialogue and the result of this battle would be able to make its way out of this place had never crossed his mind.

But what Song Ci said was indeed true. If Rong Bai were the one coming up against Tu Shan Yue, the victor would have already been decided a long ago.

This infuriated Tu Shan Yue. He said hatefully, “Are you blowing your own trumpet?”

Song Ci snorted and laughed, then shook his head and sighed under his breath. “I knew you wouldn’t believe it.”

“You’d better cherish these last moments you get to speak.” Tu Shan Yue was naturally enraged after getting confused by Song Ci and being trodden upon.

If it weren’t for fear of Song Ci’s unexplainable power earlier, he would have already charged at him.

Song Ci went along with his words and said, “You’re right. Why don’t we stop for a moment to chat?”

Tu Shan Yue was not in the mood to wrangle with him. He even felt that this man – who could still stand up and joke with him despite having been half beaten to death earlier – was out of his mind.

Let’s get this over with. Tu Shan Yue thought.

He gripped his long-hilt broadsword in his hand and, without warning, launched an attack at Song Ci. The broadsword swung around powerfully in a large arc.

Song Ci swallowed a mouthful of blood. His gaze suddenly sharpened as he shed away his outer skin layer of weakness to unveil an edge so sharp it shocked Tu Shan Yue.

He could sense the difference in the man before him. The feeling had been intensifying since the latter’s laugh earlier. But with the blade already in place, he could not afford to be distracted. He watched as his blade was about to hack Song Ci.

The strength of this blow was enough to cut Song Ci’s fragile and scarred body into two.

What shocked him was the sudden flash of Song Ci’s figure at the very instant the blade came into contact with the latter’s hair. He was so fast Tu Shan Yue could not even get a clear look before he vanished from his spot.

This speed stunned him completely!

He could not imagine or understand how Song Ci, a grievously injured man, could possibly manage to escape right under his blade. To his knowledge, this was impossible.
