Su Xia's Decision
After the middle-aged man in gray left, Su Chen and the rest were still standing in the same place. Their faces were filled with pain, especially Su Chen. His whole body was trembling because of the pain.
Liu An was a notorious playboy. He specially sent people to capture Su Xia to establish his authority so that others would not dare to secretly curse him.
Under such circumstances, Su Xia would definitely end up in a miserable state.
Thinking of this, everyone sighed. In the world of martial arts, strength was everything. Su Xia could only blame himself for being too weak.
The sound of the crowd sighing filled the air with sadness. They didn't notice that Chu Xing Yun had already left the medicinal garden. He had disappeared without a trace.
However, even if they knew that Chu Xingyun had left, they would not take it to heart. To the Su Family, Chu Xingyun was just a passerby. When he left and where he went had nothing to do with them.
At the same time, Chu Xingyun had been following the middle-aged man in gray in the sky above Feiyang City. He was not in a hurry to save Su Xia. Instead, he followed the middle-aged man in gray at a leisurely pace.
At noon, a huge city appeared in Chu Xingyun's vision. The city occupied a large area, far larger than Feiyang City. Looking from afar, it was like a peerless ferocious beast crawling on the plains. It was magnificent and vast.
This city was none other than Skystar City.
The middle-aged man in gray saw Skystar City as well. He sped up and suddenly heard a sneer, "I didn't expect there to be such a beauty here!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man in gray immediately stopped and turned around. He felt a wisp of aura blooming behind him, which was rushing toward him at an extremely fast speed.
"You're courting death!"
The middle-aged man in gray snorted and raised his spear. A sharp spear radiance spread out from his body, outlining layers of starlight shadows.
Boom!
However, at this moment, the middle-aged man in gray's body trembled. In his eyes, an extreme sword radiance descended. With an unparalleled momentum, it annihilated the starlight shadows and cut off the spiritual power around him.
"What a terrifying sword light!" The middle-aged man in grey was shocked. He had never seen such an extreme sword light.
Immediately, he swung his hand and tightly grasped the spear in his hand. He was about to attack when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. This figure stood in the air and was wrapped in a black robe. His entire body emitted a mysterious aura.
"I am an elder of the Liu Family. May I know who you are?" The gray-robed middle-aged man's voice was trembling, but his expression was still arrogant. The Starry Sky City was just a short distance away. Why would he be afraid of the man in front of him?
"Leave him behind and scram!" Said the black-robed figure coldly. He took a heavy step downwards and a monstrous sword pressure descended upon the grey-robed middle-aged man. That sharp sword pressure seemed to want to pierce through the grey-robed middle-aged man's body. His entire face became incomparably pale.
In the end, the gray-robed middle-aged man gritted his teeth and let go of Su Xia.
But just as he turned around, he slapped out with his palm, and a fierce spear light gushed out and shot towards Su Xia's heart.
"You think you can hurt someone in front of me?" The black-robed figure's voice was filled with disdain. He stretched out his hand and pointed a finger in the air. A murderous sword light swept out and whistled through the air. While it annihilated the spear light, it also easily pierced through the grey-robed middle-aged man's arm.
Puff!
The grey-robed middle-aged man groaned and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, he finally knew the difference in strength between him and the black-robed figure. He didn't dare to attack again. He turned around and quickly fled towards the Starry Sky City.
Seeing the grey-robed middle-aged man flee in a sorry state, Su Xia revealed a horrified expression.
As an elder of the Liu Family, the grey-robed middle-aged man's strength was tyrannical. His cultivation had already reached the third level of the Heavenly Spirit Realm, but he couldn't fight back against the black-robed figure.
If the black-robed figure had the intention to kill, perhaps the grey-robed middle-aged man would already be dead.
"This person knew that the grey-robed middle-aged man was from the Liu Family, but he still dared to attack. He must be an important figure." Su Xia thought to herself. At the same time, she was a little worried. Judging from the voice just now, this black-robed figure wasn't a kind person.
"I'm Su Xia. Thank you senior for saving my life." Su Xia took a deep breath and walked towards the black-robed figure.
However, by the time she opened her mouth to speak, the other party had already taken off his black robe, revealing a devilishly handsome face. On his shoulder, there was a fluffy little kitten.
"How could it be you!?" Su Xia had only seen Chu Xingyun once, but the latter's temperament was too outstanding. With just a glance, she deeply remembered Chu Xingyun.
But she never imagined that the person who saved her would actually be a youth who wasn't even twenty years old. The youth's talent was too terrifying. Although he was a sword cultivator, he could easily defeat the grey-robed middle-aged man without even drawing his sword.
"Did you receive my father's request to come and save me?" Su Xia spoke again, her eyes flickering with a bright light.
"You've misunderstood." Chu Xingyun shook his head and changed the topic. He said to Su Xia, "You still have the Crystal Jade Fruit on you, right?"
"Ah?"
Su Xia was stunned. Although she didn't know what Chu Xingyun meant, she still nodded. With a flip of her hand, she took out several Crystal Jade Fruits from her Storage Ring.
Whoosh!
Lil 'Hun's figure became ethereal. Like a stream of light, it flashed past and snatched the Crystal Jade Fruits from Su Xia's hand. It didn't hold back and directly took big mouthfuls of the Crystal Jade Fruits.
"I see." Su Xia was also a smart person. She quickly determined that Chu Xingyun saved her not because of Su Chen's request, but because he wanted to get the Crystal Jade Fruits for Lil 'Hun.
When she thought of this, Su Xia's expression became a little gloomy. Then, she took out all the Crystal Jade Fruits and bowed to Chu Xingyun. "Thank you for your help this time. If you don't mind, these Crystal Jade Fruits will be your reward."
After handing the Crystal Jade Fruit to Chu Xingyun, Su Xia turned around and looked back. A hint of struggle appeared in her eyes. However, she didn't turn around and return to Flying Sun City. Instead, she ran towards Sky Star City.
"What is the meaning of this?" Chu Xingyun stopped Su Xia and frowned. "After the Liu Family left, you have regained your freedom. Why don't you return to Feiyang City?"
Along the way, Chu Xingyun had countless chances, but he chose to help in the end. The reason was that he was worried that the Liu Family would blame Su Chen, which would implicate the entire Su Family.
Now, they finally saved Su Chen, but Su Xia wanted to go to Skystar City of her own accord. This was really strange.
Su Xia sighed and said helplessly, "Liu An is a domineering person. He won't give up until he gets what he wants. If I return to Feiyang City now, he will still give the order to capture me. At that time, the situation will still be the same. Nothing will change."
"So you want to go to your death?" Chu Xingyun frowned even more.
"Tonight, Skystar City will hold a gathering of heroes. At that time, all the influential people will be there. Liu An will be no exception. If I apologize to him in front of everyone, he probably won't do anything to me because of his identity. Even if he investigates, he won't blame the Su Family. As long as my father and my family are safe, even if I die, I will accept my fate."
Su Xia's voice was very calm. It was so calm that there was not a trace of emotion in it.
She retracted her sad gaze and bowed deeply to Chu Xingyun again. Then, spiritual energy radiated from her body and she flashed toward Skystar City without looking back.
In the sky, Chu Xingyun watched Su Xia leave. The words from before still echoed clearly in his mind, as well as that resolute gaze. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl into a faint smile.
"I originally wanted to save Su Xia in exchange for the Crystal Jade Fruit. Now that I have the Crystal Jade Fruit, Su Xia still went to Skystar City. If I just let this go, it won't be my style."
"Moreover, my purpose in coming to Skystar City this time is to find my mother. The gathering of heroes is about to begin. I can take the opportunity to observe the Liu Family. If there is a chance, I can make a move secretly."
