That figure appeared in her mind and that voice reverberated in the depths of her memories, causing Su Xiaoning to feel a sense of warmth.
Immediately after, Su Xiaoning caught sight of someone.
A man in green robes was walking over slowly.
That figure did not look tall or burly.
However, it gradually overlapped with the figure in Su Xiaoning's memories and became indistinguishable.
When she saw that person, Su Xiaoning's mouth opened slightly and her petite body shuddered, her eyes filled with disbelief.
How could that be?
How could that be?
This must be a hallucination …
Su Xiaoning could not believe it.
She pulled up her sleeves and wiped away the tears in her eyes. Widening her eyes, she looked at the person who had arrived.
Even though they had not met for a few years, the green-robed man's gaze was still as warm as before.
Su Xiaoning covered her cherry lips with her petite hands and her body shuddered slightly as her eyes were covered with a layer of mist once more.
The green-robed man arrived before Su Xiaoning and smiled. Reaching out with his slender fingers, he wiped away the tears on Su Xiaoning's face gently and said gently, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
It was only at this moment that Su Xiaoning was truly certain that everything before her was not an illusion.
Su Zimo had truly appeared!
He did not descend from the skies, nor were there rainbow clouds, nor was there a massive commotion. There was only a single person and yet, Su Xiaoning felt a long-awaited warmth.
Su Xiaoning could no longer control herself and was speechless as tears gushed out.
At that moment, all the grievances in her heart seemed to have found a place to vent and she could vent them to her heart's content.
"Who are you? This has nothing to do with you. Don't look for trouble!"
He Xing frowned and hollered at Su Zimo with a cold gaze.
Su Zimo glanced sideways and glanced at He Xing indifferently.
Su Zimo's gaze was calm as water without any ripples. However, for some reason, He Xing's heart skipped a beat!
Su Zimo pointed to the Elixir Furnace in Xiaoning's hands and smiled. "Keep it. You didn't lose. Why should you give it to someone else?"
"Yes!"
Su Xiaoning nodded her head solemnly. With a flip of her palm, she kept the Elixir Furnace back into her storage bag.
She was unwilling to give in the end.
But from the beginning to the end, no one helped her, not even a word.
Even her fellow disciples from Azure Frost Elixir Workshop were forcing her to hand over her Elixir Furnace.
At that moment, Su Xiaoning felt cold all over. She was lonely and helpless. Darkness filled her eyes and she could only bow her head and submit.
But now, with Su Zimo standing beside her, she was filled with courage.
She was not in the wrong in the first place, so why should she compromise?
He Xing's face darkened as he said coldly, "Su Xiaoning, what do you mean by this? You want to go back on your word after losing? "
Su Xiaoning said, "He Xing, let me repeat myself. I did not lose! Just Now, everyone here clearly saw what happened. You know it yourself. I have a clear conscience! "
Su Xiaoning's words were resolute and decisive. Su Zimo nodded secretly as a look of appreciation flashed across his eyes.
Over the past few years of cultivation in Azure Frost Sect, Xiaoning's temperament had become much stronger.
"Does that mean that you're being shameless?" He Xing clenched his fists tightly with a ferocious glint in his eyes.
Su Zimo turned around and strode before He Xing, asking expressionlessly, "This is the Great Zhou Dynasty, right under the emperor's feet. What are you trying to do?"
"Hahahaha!"
He Xing burst into laughter with a mocking look in his eyes. Pointing at Su Zimo, he said, "You're still way too naive."
"Oh?" Su Zimo raised his brow slightly.
He Xing laughed sinisterly. "Indeed, I don't dare to kill anyone here. However, do you believe that the Scarlet Vulture guards won't care if I slap you a few times right now and embarrass you? "
When they heard that, everyone shook their heads and sighed internally.
This was completely taking advantage of their power to bully others.
He Xing slapped Su Zimo a few times. After all, no one died and the Scarlet Vulture guards would turn a blind eye.
However, if Su Zimo dared to resist, the Scarlet Vulture guards would definitely step in.
At that time, the one who would suffer would definitely be Su Zimo.
When he heard He Xing's words, Su Zimo's expression was calm as he replied calmly, "You don't dare to kill but I do. Do you believe that I'll kill you if you dare to lay a finger on me? "
The moment he said that, the crowd was in an uproar!
Tit for tat!
What did the green-robed man mean by that?
How dare he threaten to kill someone in the Great Zhou Dynasty right under the emperor's feet?
This person was either a lunatic or he was spouting nonsense.
"Fufu … are you trying to scare me?"
After a brief silence, He Xing suddenly laughed.
He Xing could tell that Su Zimo was only at late-stage Foundation Establishment, the same as him.
Notwithstanding the fact that Su Zimo did not dare to attack, even if this person did not care about his life and attacked him, He Xing would be able to retreat immediately!
At that time, the Scarlet Vulture guards would step in and suppress this person!
At that thought, He Xing reached out and sneered, slapping Su Zimo viciously on the face.
At the same time, Su Zimo attacked as well.
It was the exact same action and posture.
However, Su Zimo's speed was much faster than He Xing's!
He Xing merely used his palm whereas Su Zimo's arm seemed to be spinning a gigantic millstone, arriving instantly with a chilling killing intent!
An evil gust of wind blew!
He Xing could not dodge at all.
The aura of death engulfed him, almost suffocating him!
He Xing had miscalculated something.
At this distance, there was no way he could escape once Su Zimo attacked!
Bang!
Su Zimo's palm slapped He Xing's face heavily, letting out a dull thud.
Poof!
Right in front of countless gazes, He Xing's massive head was smashed apart by Su Zimo's palm!
Brains splattered and blood flowed.
He Xing's headless body was still standing on the spot, convulsing intentionally or unintentionally.
Instantly, the crowd went silent.
Everyone's eyes widened as they looked at this scene in disbelief.
Even though Su Zimo had already made his threat Just Now, no one expected him to really attack.
Furthermore, he was so decisive in killing without leaving any room for negotiation!
It felt as though the green-robed cultivator had found a random reason to kill He Xing!
As the Elixir Refinement Master with the most potential among the younger generation of True Fire Sect, Just Now, he was still in high spirits and looked down on everyone. But in the blink of an eye, he was killed by a green-robed cultivator of unknown origins and turned into a headless corpse.
Everything had happened too quickly!
Everyone looked at Su Zimo as though they were looking at a dead man.
If it was just a fight, the Scarlet Vulture guards would at most chase the wrong party out of the capital.
However, if someone died, the murderer would have to pay with his life!
That was also the reason why even with the Scarlet Vulture guards backing him, He Xing admitted that he did not dare to kill anyone in the capital.
"Murder!"
A scream sounded from the crowd.
Not far away, two Scarlet Vulture guards caught sight of what happened and their eyes flashed with disbelief. They were momentarily stunned before hollering and charging over on their spirit eagles with a murderous aura, wielding their halberds!
Everyone from True Fire Weapon Refinement Pavilion was filled with killing intent.
Pang Ming said coldly, "Lad, you're finished! No one can save you today! "
Beside him, the spirit lion lowered its body and roared at Su Zimo as well.
Su Zimo's gaze was cold as he said indifferently, "Think about yourself first."
