Chapter 1159 All hope is lost
“Change? Ha! You will definitely die tonight, there is only a fixed number, no variable.” Long Yu sneered nonchalantly, “Qin Wei, are you so naive that you still place your hopes on the Song Dynasty court? As you know, since you lost power in Luoyang City, your fate has been no different from that of Liu Xunyi. The world of martial arts cannot tolerate you, and the court has even abandoned you. Don’t say that those cowards in Lin’an don’t know that you are in trouble tonight. Even if they knew, they would not help you.”

“Long Yu! Stop spreading rumors here to confuse the people…”

“Whether it is a lie or not, you know it clearly!” Long Yu stared at the upset Qin Wei with a provocative look, and said, “Don’t think that you have become an important figure after a few good days in the Song court. I bet that your court now wants you to disappear forever, so that we Mongols will not put the account of Luoyang City on their heads, and the Central Plains martial arts world will not be disturbed again because of your relationship with Qingfeng. When the bird is dead, the bow is put away, and when the rabbit is dead, the dog is cooked, let alone a dog that can’t catch the rabbit at all? You are also an official, how do you deal with those subordinates who are not doing their job well and are in trouble?”

“you……”

“You are no longer a meritorious official of the Song court, but a burden they hope to get rid of.”

“shut up!”

Long Yu cruelly revealed the ugliness of the world’s fickleness, causing Qin Wei, who had been unwilling to ponder these issues, to have a surge of thoughts and mixed emotions.

In fact, Qin Wei had been secretly wondering in his heart all the way, not sure about the court’s position and attitude towards his failure. If the court still valued him, why did they ignore him when he was imprisoned? If the news was blocked, why did they still not ask about his life or whereabouts for more than half a month after the incident?

How could he not have imagined such indifference and disregard?

However, there are some things that Qin Wei knows in his heart, but he just doesn’t want to admit it.

Now that Long Yu had pointed out his embarrassing situation directly, no matter how hypocritical Qin Wei was, he couldn’t help but feel extremely heavy, depressed and repressed at this moment.

“Is it because you knew for sure that I was a discarded child of the imperial court that you dared to play tricks on me without any fear?”

“You really don’t know what’s good for you. I’m not kidding you, I respect you. Maybe I’m the only person in the world who respects you.” Long Yu sneered at Qin Wei’s resentment and said with a smile, “Now I’m obviously the knife and you’re the meat, but I’m willing to give you a fair chance to fight. Just for this, you should be grateful.”

Facing Long Yu’s self-praise, Qin Wei shook his head with disdain and sneered: “You are confident that your martial arts are far better than mine. Even if I am well fed and well-drinking, I am afraid I am still not your opponent. As for your so-called fairness… it is nothing more than a greater humiliation to me.”

“You want to bargain?” Long Yu saw through Qin Wei’s mind and knew that he was not ungrateful, but just wanted to take the opportunity to seek a greater chance of survival for himself, so he smiled slyly and agreed generously, “I understand what you mean, and I can also give you what you think is fair.”

“You mean…”

“How does your martial arts compare to Liu Xunyi’s?”

“This……”

Long Yu’s question for no reason made Qin Wei, who was secretly happy, startled. After a slight hesitation, he reluctantly replied, “I… am slightly inferior to him.”

“Inferior? How much is one? As far as I know, you and him have known each other since childhood and have studied martial arts together in Tianji Pavilion. You two are of similar age and have learned similar things…” Long Yu looked suspicious and asked curiously, “If the two of you fight, how many rounds can you survive in his hands?”

“Long Yu, what exactly do you want to ask?”

Because Qin Wei and Liu Xunyi had similar experiences, they were often compared. But the result of each comparison was always praise for Liu Xunyi and encouragement for Qin Wei, so Qin Wei was extremely sensitive to this and hated it.

Seeing that Long Yu was asking questions without knowing the time, Qin Wei’s tone became a little impatient: “If you want to use Liu Xunyi to humiliate me, I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible!”

“This is your only chance to be fair.” Long Yu said indifferently, “Either answer my questions truthfully, or accept death.”

“you……”

“Although I’m not worried about the possibility of change, I don’t like men being shy.” As he spoke, the smile on Long Yu’s face gradually disappeared. “Master Qin, you’d better not challenge my patience.”

Qin Wei’s heart tightened at Long Yu’s threat. He wanted to refute him to maintain his dignity, but then he thought that he had to bow his head under someone else’s eaves, so he could only suppress his unhappiness and replied coldly: “Liu Xunyi… is gifted and has a very high aptitude. Although he and I have practiced martial arts together since childhood, his martial arts… has always been better than mine. Moreover, he has made many friends in the martial arts world and has connections with various sects. He can be said to… have gathered the strengths of hundreds of schools…”

“so what?”

“Although I have turned against him, the fact is… we have never had a direct confrontation, let alone a true fight to the death.” Qin Wei’s expression dimmed a little when he mentioned Liu Xunyi, and his tone unconsciously revealed a bit of guilt, “Maybe… he has always cared about our childhood friendship and never killed me…”

At this point, Qin Wei suddenly realized the impatience in Long Yu’s eyes, so he calmed down and said seriously: “According to my previous experience of sparring with him, I have never been able to last longer than Lily in his hands. Of course, I only did it when I had reached the limit…”

It was more painful to let Qin Wei admit that he was inferior to others in skills than to kill him. Therefore, when Qin Wei said the last sentence, his voice was as thin as a mosquito’s silk.

“Can’t survive Lily? Or stop at the right time? I’m afraid… Liu Xunyi is concerned about your face and will show some mercy?” Long Yu mocked Qin Wei bluntly while slowly raising the dagger and gently swiped the cold and shining blade with two fingers of his left hand, making a very slight but extremely harsh “chi chi” sound. After thinking for a moment, he continued casually, “I have fought with him. Although I couldn’t kill him, I don’t think he is that powerful. Since you can’t survive Lily in his hands, then… I will set a limit of fifty rounds. Tonight, if you have the ability to survive fifty rounds in my hands, I will consider letting you go… and your group of useless people.” “What?”

Qin Wei never expected that Long Yu would be so arrogant. It was obvious that he was using himself as a yardstick to compete with Liu Xunyi.

“You and me, one on one, fifty rounds to decide life or death.” Long Yu raised a wicked smile, “How is it? Isn’t it fair?”

“Are you serious?” Qin Wei seemed to see hope of survival, and was very excited. But when he accidentally caught a glimpse of Ya Kun not far away, he became worried again and asked half-doubtfully, “Will your helper…”

“You have no choice but to trust me. If you want to survive, you have to use all your abilities.”

Long Yu’s words made Qin Wei’s face change suddenly, and he swallowed back all the words he wanted to say.

After thinking for a long time, Qin Wei looked at the broken leg on the ground again. With a fierce struggle in his heart, he knitted his brows and pursed his lips. He slowly stretched out his trembling hand, leaned over and slowly picked up the bloody broken leg.

Then, under Long Yu’s meaningful and increasingly eager gaze, and under the anxious and nervous anticipation of Tu Hu and others, the hungry Qin Wei no longer hesitated.

He endured the churning and severe discomfort in his stomach and intestines, and bit the food madly like a hungry wolf.

This scene made Tu Hu and others on the side stunned and smacked their lips.

“how is the taste?”

Faced with Long Yu’s provocative question, Qin Wei, who was filled with shame and anger, just swallowed big gulps and suppressed the urge to vomit that kept churning up from his stomach.

Even though his cheeks were bulging, he still kept stuffing the only “life-saving food” into his mouth. His pair of hateful and sinister eyes glared fiercely at the smug Long Yu, as if he was drinking his blood and eating his flesh.

As his stomach felt fuller, Qin Wei, who was originally weak and exhausted, gradually regained some strength.

“Long Yu, you turned me into a beast, a beast like you.”

After saying that, Qin Wei waved his hand and threw the leg bone that had been eaten up far away, his face full of disgust, as if he never wanted to taste this flavor again in his life.

“Beasts are not only ferocious and brutal, but also have the courage to fight to the death.” Long Yu raised the dagger lightly and smiled evilly, “Use your best skills to show me… whether you are qualified to be compared with beasts.”

Qin Wei took a deep breath, both to calm his inner excitement and to ease the discomfort in his stomach.

“Do we have to fight?” Qin Wei knew that Long Yu was determined to kill him, but he was still unwilling to give in. He tried to make a final struggle before the fight. “You and I have never met before. We have no grudges against each other. Why do we have to fight to the death? As long as you are willing to stop, we can discuss any conditions…”

“I let you eat and drink enough, not to listen to your nonsense!”

“you……”

“Long-winded!”

Before he finished speaking, Long Yu, who had been impatient, had already drawn his sword.

But there was a flash of cold light, and the sharp blade whizzed out like a gust of wind. The sharp sword energy blew Qin Wei’s hair into all directions. The sharp sword tip was like a swift meteor, shooting in front of him in the blink of an eye.

Long Yu acted boldly without any hesitation, which destroyed all Qin Wei’s hopes and made him feel hopeless.

Knowing that he had to fight and there was no way to retreat, Qin Wei had to abandon his illusions, and then turned his anxiety into grief and indignation, and his entanglement into anger. In an instant, he got rid of all his fears and fears, and was determined to fight and kill.

At this moment, all the muscles in his body were tense as iron, his hair stood on end, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was extremely angry and wanted to fight to the death with Long Yu.

“Barbarian alien, am I afraid of you?”
