Jianyu Forest was shrouded in eternal mist, where giant trees towered like swords that pierced the sky. Behind the howling wind, there was a rhythmic clanking of metal—the sound of a young man practicing his moves with a worn wooden sword

the birth of the sword god

Xue's body shook violently, Xiao Lin's golden light and Xue's darkness fighting for control. Her face alternated between Xue's cruel smile and Xiao Lin's gentle gaze.

"Get out of my body!" Xue roared, clawing at her own face.

"This body is not yours," Xiao Lin's voice replied, controlling his right hand to pull the Jiuyinlong fragment from the ground.

The Last Dragon watched with sharp eyes. "Two souls in one body... this is a violation of the laws of nature. Both must be destroyed."

Its metallic claws raised, ready to crush the struggling body.

**Luo Yan and Li Feng: A Fight Against Time**

Luo Yan dashed forward, the crystal pendant in her hand flashing brightly. "Don't! Xiao Lin is still inside!"

Li Feng pulled her back. "This is too dangerous! The Last Dragon cannot be stopped!"

But Luo Yan didn't care. She threw the pendant towards Xue's body. Xiao Lin's purple blood spread out, forming an energy shield that blocked the Final Dragon's attack.

"Xiao Lin! I'm here!" Luo Yan shouted.

Inside Xue's body, Xiao Lin heard her voice. "Luo Yan... I need your help."

Inside Xue's mind, Xiao Lin stood in the middle of a dark space filled with his own reflection. Xue appeared in front of him, a black sword in hand.

"You think you can defeat me here?" Xue taunted. "This is *my* world!"

Xiao Lin looked at her calmly. "I don't need to defeat you. I just need to... remind you who we really are."

With a swift movement, he stabbed his hand into Xue's chest. The purple and black blood mingled, bringing flashes of memories:

- **Xue's** childhood of misery, exiled because of the Forbidden blood.

- **Xiao Lin and Luo Yan's first meeting**, where they promised to change their destiny.

- **Su Liang's** death, which cursed his descendants with darkness.

Xue screamed, trying to break free. "No! I don't want to remember that!"

**Xiao Lin's Resurrection**

In the real world, Xue's body stopped moving. Golden light and darkness merged, forming a purple aura that radiated in all directions.

The Last Dragon growled. "What happened?"

The body opened its eyes. The color of its eyes changed: one red, one blue.

"Xiao Lin...?" Luo Yan whispered.

"Not just Xiao Lin," the echoing voice replied. "We... are **Xue Lin**."

The Last Dragon raised its claw, ready to crush Xue Lin. But suddenly, the **Qingyang Sect** emerged from the mist, carrying an ancient artifact that could control dragons.

"We have come to take the Forbidden Blood!" their leader shouted.

Xue Lin smiled, the purple energy in her hand forming a new sword. "Let's finish this... once and for all."
