Ark, they don't revolve around you

Yes, she hasn’t won back Zhuang Ning yet, so she has to give it a try.

The filming will be wrapped tomorrow, which represents several months of hard work for Nian. Although she cannot be careless yet, she can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Nian's films are always terrible, but bad films also have experience value. Roses need manure to set them off, and manure nourishes roses. This is almost the case with Nian.

She wanted to give the sword to Zhuang Ning after the last scene was over. Although the sword looked a bit too ostentatious, it was still her hard work and he would definitely accept it with pleasure.

Nian's mind was full of thoughts, but he stopped and thought that there was still green in this barren land. It was the poplar trees. This place was dangerous and natural disasters were unpredictable, but these strong plants still survived.

This time, she was actually in a better mood.

"Not so sad?"

"I'm still sad, but there's no point in being sad..." Nian showed a faint smile, "When it's over, I'll go find Xi and Sister Ling."

"Is Xi still mad at him?"

"I guess so." Nian sighed, "Xi has a bad temper and rarely values ​​some people. But if she values ​​someone very much, she will give the painting to the other person. As a result, the doctor burned her painting. How can Xi not be angry?"

“Why did he burn the paintings?”

"I don't know. When I went to find Xi, she was very unhappy. She complained to me that if the doctor could apologize to her, she would have a one in ten thousand chance of forgiving the doctor." Nian scratched his head. "She is still so dishonest. Are all painters like this?"

Zhongyue smiled and said, "You are prejudiced."

His expression turned serious again: "What's going on with Ling? With her personality, she can be very upset and become drunk for a long time. Even I can't intervene with her."

"Maybe it has something to do with the Doctor?"

"It's not a possibility, it's a certainty..." Zhongyue was helpless. He was an open-minded person who never worried about himself, but his sister was too worrying recently. In order to lighten the mood, he made a joke: "It can't be that Ling killed him, right?"

"This doesn't sound like a joke at all." Nian took a deep breath and gripped the sword. Her heart still ached, but the girl always maintained her stubbornness.

Sudden.

Zhongyue frowned, as if he sensed something, and looked into the distance. The mottled walls of Yumen were covered with thick smoke and dust.

It's a beacon.

The beacon fire was actually lit!

The Zhongyue terminal also rang, and Pingshou Hou's heavy whisper came out from it: "Master, Yumen was attacked."

"...Is it the so-called 'Yi'?" Zhongyue was not surprised. They had expected this attack.

"I can't think of anyone else except your second brother." Pingsonghou's tone was actually a little relieved, "He's finally here."

"I will rush back immediately." Zhongyue looked at Nian, "Yumen was attacked by the Shanhai people. I will go first. You should be careful."

He was still confident about his sister's safety. No one had been able to kill Sui Pian in a thousand years.

Although Nian was uneasy, he still waved his hand: "Okay."

Zhongyue took a step forward, then suddenly remembered something. He turned his neck and said softly, "I will protect the doctor. No one can hurt him."

Nian smiled and said, "As expected of you, you are my big brother. I always rely on you."

As soon as she finished speaking, she could no longer see Chongyue. This man always said that his martial arts were unremarkable, but looking at his attainments in "qinggong", it was something that no one could catch up with in his lifetime.

But I’m not the kind of person who fights with fists… She thought, and the sword in her arms trembled, as if it sensed the cold hostility.

The night is dark and the wind is blowing wildly.

A black shadow came walking on the sand, with black clothes scattered all over, but the face of the person could not be seen clearly.

Nian raised his eyebrows and called the newcomer coldly: "Second Brother."

"It's so strange, Nian." The shadow-like person raised his cheek with a faint smile on it, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, haven't we?"

"After Jie got into trouble, you were suppressed, so how could I see you?"

"This is what it means to treat us differently. Look at the tone you used to talk to Big Brother just now. Am I not also your brother?" He smiled, but Nian stepped back unconsciously and mocked coldly: "Can you be considered a brother? You have always disliked us, right?"

The man readily admitted: "I don't like you, just like you don't like me."

"In that case, why are you still talking? It was you who was behind the attack on Yumen by the Shanhai people this time." With a wave of her hand, there was a commotion in Yumen's sword-making workshop, and shield weapons fell from the sky and floated in front of her.

There are many sharp blades inlaid on this shield, each of which is an extraordinary item, and the color of lava is surging on Nian's body. She is in a state of combat readiness, like a Tyrannosaurus Rex that is ready to kill everyone at any time.

She sneered, "Yumen was already prepared for your attack, second brother, you call yourself a master of calculation, but you didn't expect it."

"I'm not a fortune teller, and I don't believe there is anyone in the world who deserves this title." The man couldn't hide his disappointment: "Nian, my sister, a thousand years have passed, and you are still so stupid."

He sneered: "You can guess why I'm here, right?"

"Are you trying to kill me? Brother, when did you become so crazy as to want to kill your own kind?"

The man's expression disappeared. "You know I'm here to kill you, but my sister, why can't you be more serious? Your murderous aura is like a breeze. Even death can't arouse your fighting spirit."

"I have never been interested in fighting. If you want to fight, you can go to my brother. I really want to see him teach you a lesson." Nian grinned.

The man was stunned for a few seconds, then chuckled: "Forget it, it seems I need to give you a little reminder."

"With our preparation, we certainly cannot capture Yumen, but perhaps our goal is just to kill one person, a person who is bound to be a threat to us—"

Before he could finish his words, a silver light broke through the night sky, and its cold aura went straight to his throat, like a falling star!

Red lotus exploded, the world turned into a furnace, and Nian finally showed murderous intent, and said coldly: "You want to attack the doctor? How dare you?!"

Chapter 8: Wrapping Lies in Truth (k)

The rising fire dispelled the night's chill that almost dropped below zero degrees. When the man mentioned that name, Nian's fighting spirit immediately boiled over, and murderous intent was as sharp as a needle.

However, her enemy, the man she called her second brother, laughed and laughed exaggeratedly: "Nian, can you see what you are like now? I said I wanted to kill you, and you didn't feel indignant, but once you threatened him, you wanted to kill me."

"I can't kill you, and I won't kill you, but I will never let you succeed." Nian sneered and took a fighting stance.

Although he acted casually, he was not without fear. Even among the twelve fragments of the Sui beast, the second brother was the most mysterious. I'm afraid that except Jie who gave them real names, no one knew this person's background.

However, the man did not move, and his smile gradually faded.

"Nian." He called out, his voice so kind, as if he was really calling his little sister, "That man must die, even though I know you like him very much."

"nonsense."

"This is not nonsense... I want you to believe me, but you won't." The man paused, and the frivolity disappeared, leaving only extreme coldness and helplessness. "Although I don't like you, you are my sister after all. I want to save you, and I have the obligation to save you."

"Is there something wrong with your brain? You just said you wanted to kill me, second brother." Nian sneered. She realized that her second brother might really have something wrong with his brain.

"My desire to kill you is not inconsistent with my desire to save you. Without destruction, there is no construction. In a few years, the Year Beast will awaken. This cannot be shaken. There are only two choices before you and me."

The man was not a talkative person and would not explain his plan to anyone, but considering that they were blood relatives and blood was thicker than water, he said coldly: "Either we do nothing and wait for Him to wake up, and we will be absorbed and completely disappear between heaven and earth, just like Jie."

"Jie did a great job, and I feel sorry for him, but what does that have to do with you?"

"Yes, Jie told me the way to break the impasse before he died." The man closed his eyes, "Wake up Sui in advance, erase His consciousness, and completely kill our real 'master'. Then I will lead the ceremony and revive you from His body."

Nian admitted that he was stunned when he heard this.

"Are you crazy? Kill Him, but how can the body resist the master? He is immortal, and our birth is just an accident!"

“And then? You’re just going to sit back and watch your own destruction?” The man gritted his teeth, his voice filled with anger. He was almost roaring, “That’s why I despise you, Nian. We’ve reached the most dangerous situation, but what are you doing? You’re still immersed in a movie!”

"What qualifications do you have to blame me, second brother? If you want to die, that's fine, but don't involve us. Although you may disappear soon, I still want to enjoy this world." Nian was unmoved, her nerves were highly tense. As long as the man made any move, her blade would pierce him.

She was far from being as open-minded as these words showed, but she just didn't trust her brother.

The man also noticed it, and the anger in his eyes gradually disappeared: "Yes, you are all like this, Shuo, Ling, Xi, why do you all make light of the disappearance of your self?"

He seemed to have given up on persuasion and since his sister refused to obey, he resorted to force.

"Before we fight, I have to ask you." This time it was Nian who whispered, "Why did you want to attack the doctor? If you really want to survive, shouldn't you seek cooperation with the doctor?"

"Cooperate?" The man said as if he had heard a joke. "Go find that evil spirit?"

"It's fine if you don't want to look for him, but the doctor is an outsider and you shouldn't touch him." Nian said coldly and would never allow this.

"He is not an outsider. On the contrary, you are the one who is kept in the dark. Nian, my sister, why do you think he wants you to be the director?"

"Why?" Nian's heart moved.

"Because he needs to send me a signal, Nian, you are the best target." The man sighed, "You are the beast of the year, but you are leading this video that discredits Shanhaizhong. Do you think he is using you to provoke me? Is he sending me some kind of signal?"

His words were close to certainty, but Nian just sneered: "I thought you had some brilliant ideas, but you are too dark in your heart. Don't think you are so important. Get down."

"We are all family. Isn't it too cruel to say this, Nian?" The man did not feel embarrassed. "In the final analysis, he wants to do something big, and I am afraid of him. This variable must die. The sooner, the sooner, and the more miserable the death, the better."

"Big Brother will protect him. He is not an ordinary person. Many people want to kill him, but none of them succeeded."

The night wind hits the stone wall as if sobbing.

A few seconds seemed to pass for decades, the man closed his eyelids, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

"That's because they are human, and we... are gods!"

The black robe with cloud patterns on the sleeves fluttered, and he finally put away the warmth of meeting his family, revealing his superiority as a giant beast, with rage flowing in his eyes, "Mortals are mortals after all, what they should do is kowtow, submit, and wait for the gift we give them!"

"Killing the doctor is as difficult as climbing to heaven for ordinary people, but I have asked the elite of Shanhai to be on standby. Tonight, he must die." He spoke in an extremely slow tone, and he seemed to pause after each word, as indifferent as if he was crushing an ant.

"I said that too." Nian's eyes were filled with coldness, and he no longer wanted to hold back his authority. As souls born from the Sui beast, they were all gods who were far superior to humans. "I want to protect him, and you are not worthy of killing him!"

In an instant, the sand and stones began to burn, and the temperature continued to rise, from zero degrees to ten degrees, hundred degrees... approaching a thousand degrees, and in the blink of an eye they were in the furnace!

In this extremely high temperature, even steel would melt, but the girl has not stopped heating up. She once joked that the temperature in her body is 1,400 degrees, but in fact, as long as she is willing, this is far from the limit.

No life can survive in the furnace. Nian completely liberated his authority. The red color in his pupils was completely ignited. The fragments of this giant beast revealed its majesty and nobility!

She is Nian, in charge of hardware and the power to decide the fate of the world. In ancient times, she would do evil things on a whim. People were afraid of her, so they used firecrackers to blow her up and used the bright red color to drive her away. But she is the fire of firecrackers and the most conspicuous red in the world. The reason she did it was just because she wanted someone to accompany her in making a big fuss.

But who has ever seen her angry spectacle? Aren’t those so-called Nian beast legends just mortals’ genuine fear of her?

Facing this fire, perhaps only her second brother could be excited and laugh heartily?

"This is you, my sister!" the man whispered, "But this is not enough. We are 30-year-old souls. We will never be burned by a mere flame!"

Nian was silent for a while, then nodded and admitted: "The battles between us are often close combat, using metal to break through authority."

A few kilometers away, the iron wall of Yumen was shaken, and the tracks and sand channels were trembling as if in fear. Most of the people in Yumen practiced martial arts and had weapons at home. Now they broke out of the windows, moved like snakes, and rose into the sky.

It was the controller of gold and iron who gave her an order. The arrogant, godlike woman ordered the return of swords, gold and iron!

Swords, spears, sabers, and halberds gathered behind her like a torrent, each pointing its sharp side at the man. Nian murmured:

"Although I think I should say swords are coming, but it's not just swords that are coming. Do you think they won't ask me for copyright fees?"

She smiled, her smile was bright: "We haven't fought yet, have we? I actually like fighting, but I'm afraid there are not many people who can satisfy me!"

"Do you think an ordinary man's sword can hurt me?" The second brother disagreed.
