Yun Han remained calm. In fact, he knew well that as long as he stood there, Feng Xingzhi wouldn't really kill Ji Yunxi.
Right now, Feng Xingzhi was just getting impatient seeing Jiang Yaoji injured, and Ji Yunxi was holding on stubbornly.
Ji Yunxi was gradually losing the upper hand. She knew that Feng Xingzhi was much more powerful than her. If they continued fighting, the outcome wouldn't be good. So she decided not to entangle with him any longer, or she was bound to lose.
She didn't want to admit defeat in front of Jiang Yaoji.
So Ji Yunxi took the initiative to attack. She twirled Nian Yun in her hand and stabbed at Feng Xingzhi. As long as she could break his current sword - technique and quickly retreat, there was still a way to resolve this matter.
Feng Xingzhi naturally understood what Ji Yunxi was up to. Deep down, he was even willing to cooperate, so he stepped back. But Nian Feng didn't retreat. It seized Ji Yunxi's vulnerable point and pointed straight at her. It lifted upwards towards her neck. Ji Yunxi defended and knocked Nian Feng away, and then landed on the ground.
Unfortunately, Nian Feng was an inanimate object without sense. When it lifted the sword, it also knocked off the jade hairpin on Ji Yunxi's head.
The jade hairpin, a fragile thing, directly smashed to the ground and broke into two pieces, as if it was foreshadowing their current irreconcilable relationship.
A wisp of Ji Yunxi's hair fluttered down and fell to the ground.
A sudden tremor went through her heart. Broken hair. If getting married meant tying hair together, then what did broken hair signify?
After the jade hairpin broke, not only did the two of them calm down, but everyone present also regained their senses.
Yun Luotian had never heard Ji Yunxi talk about the origin of this jade hairpin. She just watched as Ji Yunxi's eyes gradually withdrew all the love, and then she felt something was wrong.
Feng Xingzhi looked at the broken thing on the ground, lost in thought. Although he couldn't remember many things, he still remembered this jade hairpin that had always been with him and that he liked to wear the most.
It had been on his own head, so it was impossible for someone else to steal it. But why was it in Ji Yunxi's possession?
He couldn't remember.
A strange feeling suddenly welled up in his heart, as if he had done something wrong and was at a loss.
Ji Yunxi picked up the broken jade hairpin on the ground, her eyes filled with grief.
Feng Xingzhi took a deep breath. He was puzzled, so he just asked directly, "Why is this jade hairpin in your possession?"
Ji Yunxi didn't look up. Tears welled up in her eyes. "You gave it to me."
Feng Xingzhi frowned instantly. How could he have given such an intimate thing away?
He murmured, "Impossible. Absolutely impossible!"
Maybe out of anger or unwillingness to admit that he had really fallen in love with Ji Yunxi, Feng Xingzhi's nose turned slightly red as he lifted Nian Feng and wanted to attack Ji Yunxi again.
Seeing this, Yun Han couldn't sit still anymore. He couldn't just watch Feng Xingzhi really hurt Ji Yunxi.
So he took a quick step and stood in front of Ji Yunxi. He spun his hand in front of him and suddenly struck at Feng Xingzhi.
Feng Xingzhi didn't dare to do anything to Yun Han. He had to withdraw his hand. Reluctantly, he hit himself hard and was also struck by Yun Han's palm. He took several steps back.
Jiang Yaoji's heart tightened. She didn't expect that Feng Xingzhi respected Yun Han to such an extent that he was even willing to hurt himself.
Yun Han looked at him with a cold face, his eyes filled with anger. "That's enough!"
Yun Luotian quickly walked up to Ji Yunxi and held her shoulders with both hands. "Senior sister... It's okay now. You..."
Yun Han had been observing because of the past relationship between Ji Yunxi and Feng Xingzhi and hadn't intervened. But now that Feng Xingzhi actually had the intention to kill, that definitely wouldn't do.
He wished he could step forward and slap Feng Xingzhi to wake him up. With anger, he said, "You're attacking Yunxi for such a woman. You'll hate yourself when you regain your memory!"
Hating that iron couldn't be turned into steel, he pointed at Jiang Yaoji lying on the ground. His tone was full of disgust and disdain. Feng Xingzhi looked back at Jiang Yaoji lying on the ground along his finger and sighed.
It was impossible to take Jiang Yin back today. Feng Xingzhi thought there would be other opportunities in the future. He stepped forward to help Jiang Yaoji up and prepared to leave with her.
"Xingzhi, what are you doing?" Jiang Yaoji whispered and questioned.
"We can't succeed today. Let's go first."
How could she agree? She had finally found an opportunity to kill Ji Yunxi. How could she give up so easily?!
"Why don't you kill Ji Yunxi?" Jiang Yaoji's eyes were red, and there was a hint of paranoia in them. Rarely, she didn't follow Feng Xingzhi. She tightly grabbed his sleeve.
Feng Xingzhi felt uncomfortable. The jade hairpin and Ji Yunxi's look just now had a great impact on him. He couldn't forget how sad Ji Yunxi had been when she saw the broken jade hairpin.
Deep down, he didn't want to tell the truth, so he just made an excuse. "As long as Yun Han is here, I can't kill her. Moreover, your injury is important. Let's treat your injury first."
Jiang Yaoji really liked him. Although Feng Xingzhi pretended to look at Yun Han, Jiang Yaoji could still guess what was on his mind.
What she was afraid of was that Feng Xingzhi's impression of Ji Yunxi would change again. She still didn't want to give up this opportunity. She reached out and tugged at Feng Xingzhi's clothes again.
"Xingzhi, we can't wait any longer. Ji Yunxi has already found several people. If we continue like this, her power will only grow stronger. Won't it be too late for us to act then?!"
Feng Xingzhi frowned. "Don't worry. Let's focus on your injury first."
Jiang Yaoji sighed in her heart. There was really nothing she could do. She sighed and reluctantly followed Feng Xingzhi.
Before leaving, she turned her head and looked at Ji Yunxi. She saw that Ji Yunxi was still standing there. Yun Luotian was half - hugging her and seemed to be saying something. Ji Yunxi's eyes were dull, and she was just looking at the broken jade hairpin in her hand.
Jiang Yaoji took back her gaze and glanced at Feng Xingzhi. Even if he might have remembered something and was reluctant to attack Ji Yunxi, using Yun Han as an excuse, Jiang Yaoji didn't care for the moment.
After the two walked away, Ji Yunxi took a deep breath. "Let's go. Let's go back."
Yun Luotian's eyes were full of worry. She could tell how sad Ji Yunxi was. "Senior sister, he doesn't remember..."
"It doesn't matter. A broken mirror can hardly be mended. I didn't understand before, but I should understand now. Jiang Yaoji is whole - heartedly for Feng Xingzhi, but I can't be."
Hearing what she said, Yun Han nodded in satisfaction. He had intervened late today because he wanted to see Ji Yunxi's choice, whether it was for love or for justice.
If Feng Xingzhi was on their side, it would be okay. But now that he had lost his memory and had become their opponent, it didn't matter. As long as Ji Yunxi was sober - minded.
Everyone watched as Ji Yunxi put the broken thing back into her bosom and then turned around and left.
