Li Qiankun's heart skipped a beat, cold sweat appearing on his forehead again. "Of course there is a gift, of course …"
Baihua Lan provoked, "Then take it out. Dilly-Dallying is annoying!"
Li Qiankun laughed bitterly. How could he find a gift in such a hurry?
Clenching his teeth, Li Qiankun took out the crudely wrapped gift box and said sheepishly, "This is the gift that I have prepared."
Everyone looked at each other in dismay when they saw the simple gift box that seemed to have been used.
"Hey, what kind of gift is this? Why is the gift box so unusual? "
"Everyone, do not look down on it. The Li family is a powerful force, and their resources are much stronger than ours! Now that Xue Yu has made a name for himself, there is no reason for the Li family to prepare such a meager gift. I am guessing that it must be something extremely valuable. "
"Yes, that's right! I had the same guess. The gift box is simple, but the contents are of the highest quality. The contrast shows how valuable the contents are. Hehe, I have to say that Master Li is a shrewd person. "
After listening to such a logical analysis, everyone was quite convinced.
Only Li Qiankun was breaking out in cold sweat.
At that moment, he wished he could dig a hole in the ground and strangle the analysts. Would they die if they did not speak?
What made his whole body stiffen was that Su Yu looked interested. Su Yu laughed and said, "Haha, after hearing what you said, I am a little interested now."
One of the elders of the Xue family walked forward, smiling as he took the gift box from Li Qiankun and placed it in Su Yu's palm.
"Master Xue, why don't you take a look in front of everyone? We also want to know what special gift Master Li has prepared." Baihua Lan looked dissatisfied.
Su Yu chuckled and said, "Fine, then let everyone have a look."
Buzz —
Su Yu tore off the ribbon and opened the gift box.
Li Qiankun blacked out, his ears ringing. He was on the verge of fainting.
It was over!
The expected fluke did not appear. A deathly silence filled the hall.
The crowd stared at the half of the Starlight Grass, unable to believe their eyes.
In particular, the few elders who had analyzed the matter with reason and evidence were even more stunned on the spot.
Baihua Lan could not help but laugh. "Half of the Starlight Grass? Master Li, am I seeing things? This is your congratulatory gift? Are you here to humiliate Master Xue? "
Everyone in the Xue family frowned. Xue Yuntian also understood. No wonder Li Qiankun was so arrogant when he came, as if he had a great backer.
When he thought of this gift, he became even more suspicious of Li Qiankun's true intentions for coming today.
Li Jun's legs went soft, and he almost fell to the ground.
Li Qiankun's face was even paler.
It was really over. Everything was going to be exposed.
At that moment, Su Yu laughed softly. "The gift from the Li Family's Master is quite interesting. Half of the Starlight Herb … I believe that the other half is with you, right?"
Li Qiankun's face was ashen as he took out the other half of the sword from his sleeve.
Su Yu lamented, "I appreciate Master Li's kind intentions, but Miss Li and I are more suited to be friends. I understand the meaning behind this half of the Starlight Herb, please take it back."
He flicked his finger and the gift box flew back.
Li Qiankun caught it in a daze. A moment later, he came to a realization.
He hurriedly said, "Yes, I was rude! Originally, I was going to give you and Yue-er half of the Starlight Herb, meaning that your future life will be as splendid and beautiful as the Starlight Herb. Alas … "
After listening to his words, everyone felt strange, but they couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.
But if Xue Yu didn't mind, why should they, the outsiders, say anything?
Even Bai Hua Fairy didn't say anything.
After going through another hurdle, Li Qiankun's whole body went soft. He held onto the chair and sat down.
Su Yu smiled lightly and changed the topic. "We are all from the island influences of the Jianxuan Ocean. We are of the same branch and should take care of each other. If the Xue family is in trouble in the future, we will still need to rely on you."
Hearing that, many of the Island Masters were overjoyed.
With that, their trip here was not in vain.
"Yes, we are all struggling influences. It is only right for us to help each other. If the Xue family is in trouble in the future, the Jianxuan Island will be the first to come!"
"The Fairy Bone Island will not fall behind."
…
With the support of many islands, Su Yu's last wish was fulfilled.
As long as he was alive, the Xue family's days in the Jianxuan Ocean would be more comfortable than any other influences.
He had a clear conscience about the Xue family, and he had fulfilled his promise to this body.
He had also obtained most of the Dragon Marrow that he needed to become a deity. It was time to bid farewell to the Jianxuan Ocean.
The guests dispersed and left the Twin Star Island.
Li Yue stayed behind and bowed to Su Yu. "Thank you for letting the Xue family go."
Su Yu asked, "Do I have anything to hold against the Xue family?"
Li Yue was as calm as ever, like a god above the common people. She softly said, "When you were playing chess with Dragon Soul, your chess skill was calculated step by step. You are destined to be a person with monstrous intelligence. With your intelligence, it is impossible for you to not see the peculiarity between my stupid younger brother and father."
"But you chose to ignore it, and in the end, you even helped my father get out of the embarrassing situation. I think you already know that it was the Li family who ambushed the Xue family's beast carriage in the Cave of Ten Thousand Dragons."
Sure enough, Su Yu's lips curled into a faint smile and he nodded.
Li Yue sighed and said, "Why did you let us go so easily? We almost killed you. All you need to do now is to give the order, and the Li family will be destroyed. "
Su Yu turned around and looked at her. He said softly, "Because of you."
"Me?" Li Yue touched her chest. For some reason, she, who was usually calm, was flustered and could not help but press her hand against her chest.
Su Yu continued, "The Xue family is too weak, and we need allies, not enemies. I might be able to uproot the Li family and monopolize the Twin Star Island, but so what? The Xue family is weak and cannot control the resources of the entire Twin Star Island. "
"So, I hope that one day, when you become the Master of the Li family, you can help me take care of the Xue family."
Su Yu felt much more relaxed after revealing his true feelings.
He had been in the Jianxuan Ocean for many days, and the only person he could call a friend was probably Li Yue.
"I see," Li Yue said, but she shook her head. "But I don't think I can be the Master of the Li family."
Su Yu was surprised. "Why? In terms of potential and strength, no one in the younger generation of the Li family can surpass you, and your father values you far more than your brother. Does the Li family have other forces that can influence the future successor of the Li family? "
Li Yue shook her head. "No, the one who decided that I can't be the Master of the Li family is me."
"You?" Su Yu did not understand.
Li Yue took out the small emerald sword and drew a circle around her, trapping her.
"Drawing a circle restricts not only one's vision, but also one's ambitions." Li Yue looked at the horizon and said, "The Twin Star Island is but a drop in the ocean. My ambition is to look down on the world and roam the Nine Heavens. Even if my soul dies in a foreign land, I will have no regrets or resentment."
No regrets, resentment …
Su Yu's heart trembled, and he stared at Li Yue in shock. It was as if he was looking at a young eagle struggling to fly into the sky.
He also saw himself, weak as a speck of dust, struggling step by step on the Shenyue Island above the ocean, until today.
"My potential may be mediocre, but the path is under my feet. If I keep walking, I will see prosperity that I have never seen before." Li Yue's eyes were burning with passion.
She turned her head to look at Su Yu and said, "Can you understand me?"
Looking at the girl who looked weak on the outside but was strong on the inside, Su Yu said, "I understand."
Li Yue smiled indifferently. She stepped on the moonlight, like a beauty under the moonlight, and gradually walked away.
Su Yu watched her leave, his heart suddenly feeling empty.
After this farewell, they might never cross paths again in this life.
"Goodbye, Li Yue." Su Yu waved at her blurry back, then slowly rose into the sky.
The Twin Star Island under his feet gradually shrunk, and the Xue manor became more and more indistinct, until it was like a speck of dust.
"Goodbye, Xue family, goodbye, Twin Star Island!" A soft sigh was left in the sky, and then Su Yu disappeared.
In the Xue family.
In the study, Elder Qingyun said, "Master, we have searched everywhere, but Xue Yu has disappeared! Could he have been kidnapped by one of the island masters who left? "
Xue Yuntian held a scroll in his hand. Under the dim light, his face was indescribably complicated.
There was emptiness, apology, and a tinge of sadness. He was like an old man who had lost his child, full of vicissitudes and sorrow.
"Master, please give the order. I will immediately lead my people to search for him!"
Xue Yuntian put down the scroll and said, "There is no need to look for him. No island master has the ability to kidnap him. He left on his own."
"Ah? Why did Xue Yu leave? This is his home! "
Xue Yuntian looked out into the sky, where the lonely stars quietly recounted the loneliness of the night sky.
"His home is at the edge of the sky."
…
Stepping on the mist in the night sky, Su Yu headed east.
He wanted to find a safe and secluded island to train in isolation for ten years, break through the deity level, and return to his former peak.
All of a sudden, the faint smell of blood wafted into his nostrils from the mist.
Several severely injured giant birds brushed past Su Yu.
"The mount of the Island Master of the Eagle Island?" Su Yu frowned.
His intuition told him that something had happened!
Sure enough, several breaths were approaching rapidly from afar, chasing after the mount.
Su Yu knew the people approaching!
Among them was the Master of the Divine Feather Clan, Tuoba Ying!
He and three other members of the Jian Xuan formed a small team, and their hands were all stained with blood.
Tuoba Ying was the first to spot Su Yu, and his face was filled with ecstasy. "Xue Yu! It's Xue Yu! We found Xue Yu here! "
He sent out a message immediately, and a powerful wave of information spread in all directions.
Su Yu frowned slightly and flew towards the south.
Swoosh!
Tuoba Ying stopped him in a flash, smiling excitedly. "Hahaha, Xue Yu, don't you know yet? You have been listed as a special-class wanted criminal by the Jian Xuan. No one has ever enjoyed such treatment! As long as you are caught, the Jian Xuan will be rewarded with the honor of a permanent guest! "
The Jian Xuan had never regarded the island forces as people. Being a guest was the greatest reward that the Jian Xuan could bestow.
Not only did it mean that he would no longer have to pay for the Starlight Grass, but it also meant that he would gain the Jian Xuan's trust and become a member of the Jian Xuan.
