A mere outsider, how can he be invited to Qingnan Hall?!\" He had not even gone to Qingnan Hall, let alone the Thirteen Swords, how could this person precede entry?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, upon voicing this, the coldness suppressed by Yue Nu within Sword Master Yu’s eyes instantly returned, forcing out chilling murderous intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that so?\" Sword Master Yu’s voice came coolly, his gaze slipping over Ying Xiu’s face: \"I seem to have forgotten, there is another so-called outsider here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the words dropped, Ying Xiu, shivering in chilling anticipation, barely had the chance for goosebumps to cover him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a bewildering flash, unable to discern Sword Master’s move, a fierce crimson light tore through the night, releasing a sharp dragon’s croon, slicing air, striking Ying Xiu’s chest precisely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At such heights upon the mountain, just moments prior filled with pride, the Crown Prince now resembled a hopeless stray, spewing bright-red blood, garments torn to reveal an embroidered protective soft armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite bearing protective armor, the forceful and fierce sword intent still seeped uncontrollably; blood eagerly percolated out, beads cascading in droplets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ying Xiu, amidst quivering gazes of participants, was flung backward disheveled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below the mountain, a shadow darted up towards the peak, caught unawares witnessing their Young Master in a pitiable, wretched downcast.\u003C\u002Fp>",976,"2026-06-06T15:16:56.891Z",1,"novelbin.me","b418039836c456b5e09ff8e5aceb74c125337a28167594e83f0bc03afa6a5ecb","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-1061","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-1059",1594,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fjourney-to-the-end-of-the-night-cover.jpg"]
