Unwilling to Accept for Nothing
This familiar figure was deeply imprinted into Shui Qianyue's eyes, causing her face to be filled with astonishment.
Before she could say anything, the figure moved once again.
Whoosh!
The shadow of the sword blossomed in the air and transformed into an endless storm, piercing through the bodies of the charging soldiers. The sword's edge was domineering, and the dozen or so soldiers at the front died instantly, their bodies torn apart.
Even the two earth spirit realm soldiers were unable to withstand this terrifying storm of sword aura. They died instantly upon contact, not even having the chance to cry out before all signs of life were extinguished.
"White Tiger!"
The figure suddenly called out at this moment.
A silver white figure flashed through the air and charged into the midst of the soldiers. Strange, muffled sounds continuously rang out as the killing aura of geng metal tore through the air, killing everything in its path and easily taking away the lives of these soldiers.
In just a few breaths, there was not a single soldier left on the high slope where Shui Qianyue had been. Cold corpses lay at the feet of the figure as the thick stench of blood wafted through the air, setting off a somber scene.
"Well done, White Tiger." The figure suddenly spoke and broke the silence. He stretched out a hand and gently stroked the White Tiger's head as a warm smile floated onto his face.
This figure was naturally Chu Xingyun.
He'd ridden the White Tiger and rushed over from the Ironpeak Kingdom. He'd suddenly heard a familiar voice just as he was about to enter the imperial city. Only then had he descended from the sky and saved Shui Qianyue in time.
"Millions of soldiers surrounding the city, those who obey will live and those who defy will die. Such a tragic scene was rarely seen even in the ancient times." Mowang Gong descended from midair and spoke with a few traces of emotion in his voice.
Before Chu Xingyun had made his move, he'd secretly used a secret method to completely seal off the entire high slope. No one outside would be able to hear anything that happened inside.
"Yang Qi, this person is a sky spirit expert!" Shui Chongxian's voice sounded at this moment.
He was dazed when he felt the aura on Mowang Gong's body. His expression constantly changed, and he finally walked quickly in front of Chu Xingyun, saying in a trembling voice, "Thank, thank you Chairman Chu Xingyun for saving my life."
Shui Chongxian didn't dare look directly at Chu Xingyun as he spoke, and even his words became hesitant.
Chu Xingyun glanced at Shui Chongxian and said faintly, "Liuxiang's grace is repaid today."
Hearing this, Shui Chongxian's body trembled and he abruptly lifted his head.
"A year ago, in the Shui Family of West Wind City, you announced in front of everyone that Liuxiang had nothing to do with your Shui Family. However, Liuxiang is your flesh and blood after all. Today, I've saved your life to repay your grace for giving birth to Liuxiang."
Chu Xingyun flipped his palm and a storage ring appeared in front of Shui Chongxian. "There are some pills and Spiritual Stones in the storage ring. It's enough for you to live comfortably. Leave the imperial city and find an ordinary place to continue the legacy of the Shui Family."
After speaking, Chu Xingyun didn't look at Shui Chongxian anymore and stepped onto the back of the white tiger.
Behind him, Shui Chongxian held onto the storage ring and his body trembled uncontrollably. His face was filled with regret.
Chu Xingyun's words were very simple.
After today, he and the Shui Family, and Shui Liu Xiang and the Shui Family, would no longer have anything to do with each other. There would be no enmity and no gratitude. Even if they met again, they would just be strangers and would never cross paths again.
"Stop right there!"
Just as Shui Chongxian was feeling regretful, Shui Qianyue suddenly stood up and asked in a low voice, "You're protecting the legacy of the Shui Family to repay Shui Liu Xiang for giving birth to me. Then, why did you save me? Did you want to see me make a fool of myself and show off your strength?"
Shui Qianyue's eyes were still filled with a trace of unwillingness and stubbornness as she stared at Chu Xingyun.
"The person who saved you wasn't me, but Chu Xingyun from sixteen years ago."
Chu Xingyun's expression was very calm as he replied, "The Chu Xingyun from sixteen years ago had always loved you. He even secretly swore in his heart that he would become an expert of his generation, marry you, and protect you forever. Although that Chu Xingyun disappeared a year ago, his obsession made me save you and fulfill his wish."
"Now, this wish has been fulfilled. That trace of obsession will also completely disappear."
There was a trace of reminiscence in his voice, which made a certain knot in Chu Xingyun's heart disappear into nothingness. And the gaze he looked at Shui Qianyue no longer contained the slightest emotion, neither joy nor sorrow.
When Chu Xingyun first awakened to love, the woman he admired was not Shui Liu Xiang, but Shui Qianyue in front of him.
Although Chu Xingyun no longer had any feelings for Shui Qianyue after being reborn, but this ignorant feeling would not vanish. He would not avoid this feeling, nor would he bother to avoid it.
Moreover, Chu Xingyun knew that Shui Qianyue was not an evil person.
This woman's character was very competitive.
Back then, she looked down on Chu Xingyun because she did not want to marry the wrong person. She did not want to marry a trash young master, and she did not want to stay in West Wind City and live an ordinary life.
Therefore, she trained hard, entered the Yunmeng Martial House, and became a genius. She wanted to control her own fate.
Even now, when Shui Qianyue faced Chu Hangyun, her heart was filled with unwillingness. She didn't want to accept his help for no reason, and even more so, didn't want to display her weakness. Her personality was extremely stubborn.
"It's about time. If we stay any longer, I'm afraid we'll be discovered." Mowang Gong looked ahead and suddenly said.
At this time, the battle ahead was becoming more and more chaotic. A bloody battle had already broken out between the martial practitioners and the millions of lions. Moreover, it had already begun to spread to this place.
"Okay." Chu Xingyun nodded in response. With a slight thought, the white tiger immediately leaped a thousand meters into the void. Its huge figure suddenly leaped forward, turning into a silver-white flowing light. In the blink of an eye, it entered the Imperial City.
Looking at Chu Xingyun's back, Shui Chongxian sighed. "Every time I see Chu Xingyun, he can always create miracles. This time, he clearly could have escaped this disaster, but he chose to face it head-on. Could it be that he has a way to deal with Wu Jing Xue?"
When this thought appeared, even Shui Chongxian was shocked.
However, he did not know why, but in his heart, he faintly believed this. Looking at the Imperial City from afar, he sighed for a long time.
Beside him, Shui Qianyue did not say a word. She stood there quietly. However, in her eyes, there was not the slightest bit of emotion. Instead, there was a strange light in her eyes that was filled with a strong sense of strangeness.
Chu Xingyun's words and his fierce attitude constantly appeared in Shui Qianyue's mind. Her heart trembled, and the stubbornness on her face suddenly softened.
"Chu Xingyun, I, Shui Qianyue, am unwilling to accept the kindness you have shown me today. In the future, when I have absolute strength, I will definitely repay it double. And you, you must live until that day!"
Shui Qianyue bit her red lips, turned around, and walked away with her back facing the Chaotic Imperial City.
