âBrother Su Yu!â When Su Yu was wondering whether this cottage had been abandoned, ringing laughter came in from behind him. Then, his waist was hugged by a pair of slim arms from behind.
Su Yu was surprised by what he heard. This voice should absolutely come from Xianâer!
Then, he turned around and found Qin Xianâer, who was wearing colorful clothes, was looking up at Su Yu carefully. Her beautiful eyes were full of tears of excitement and joy.
âXianâer...â Su Yu choked with sobs and was not able to utter more words.
He turned around and embraced the dainty girl in front of him into his arms deeply.
After several years, she was a little bit taller than before. Now, her head could touch Su Yuâs chin.
Her cute and pretty little face became more exquisite, like a beautiful sculpture. At first sight, she looked like an innocent little fairy fox.
However, a doubt appeared in Su Yuâs heart.
Since when she is so powerful that she could hug me from behind without being detected by me?
Now, Su Yuâs sense of perception was extraordinary, which could detect anything within ten meters from him. Only Mortal Fairies could reach a position that was ten meters away from Su Yu without being detected by him.
However, this idea went in a flash. Xianâer had the dead phoenix body. Even Yun Yazi wanted to take her as his disciple. So, it was quite reasonable for her to realize such significant progress. Su Yu was quite happy to see that.
After turning away his doubts, Su Yu started to enjoy the long-lost good feeling of hugging Xianâer in his arms.
âBrother Su Yu, I miss you so much!â Xianâer also hugged Su Yuâs body tightly as if she was about to merge into his body. She worried Su Yu might run away again the next moment.
Su Yu didnât know what to say, and his heart was full of guilty when the words of the Duke of Xianyu and the Alluring Cabinet Mistress came into his mind.
He knew he had to make decisions for some issues.
âXianâer, about Jingyu, I...â Su Yu said by gathering his courage as he looked at Qin Xianâer earnestly.
Xianâer placed her finger on Su Yuâs lips and said gently, âThis moment belongs to you and me. I donât want anything else to ruin this moment!â
Su Yu sighed and swallowed the words he wanted to utter. Then, he hugged the slim body of Xianâer in his arms tightly.
Under the setting sun, they clung to each other on the mountaintop quietly, allowed the breeze and clouds to drift away from their side.
It seemed they decided to keep this stance till the end of time!
Su Yu didnât know when Xianâer closed her eyes in his arms. After a short while, she started to snore like a little kitty.
It seemed she hadnât enjoyed such a peaceful sleep for a long time.
Without waking her up, Su Yu took her into the cottage. Then, he stood in the cottage with Xianâer in his arms for the whole night till the first light of the early morning sun landed on his body.
Su Yu put Xianâer, who was still sleeping deeply in his arms on her bed gently. Then, he looked up at the sky.
It was the 8th day of the Human Tribulation of The Tribulation of Three Nines. Central Prefectureâs King would be here soon.
After putting Xianâer down on her bed gently, Su Yu kissed her forehead and said in an affectionate and apologetic way, âSorry, Xianâer, Iâm afraid I canât stay with you in future. So, I want to finish the words I didnât finish yesterday when you are sleeping!â
âXianâer, I love you just like the way I love Jingyu!â Su Yu confided his idea by gathering his courage.
Could one love two persons at the same time? Yes! But is it fair for those two persons? No!
When Su Yu tried to persuade himself that he only loved Xia Jingyu, he realized it was impossible for him to forget this delicate and cute little girl who always needed his protection.
He knew he would never forget her for the rest of his life.
He knew he loved Xia Jingyu. However, this little girl, who had been accepted as his responsibility, had also occupied his heart and love.
However, in order to safeguard the so-called fairness, he didnât want to accept this idea.
Now, the Tribulation of humans was just around the corner. It seemed he was quite doomed this time.
Before his death, he managed to straighten out his thinking after hearing the Duke of Xianyuâs advice.
Life is short! Donât leave regrets to yourself and others!
So, Su Yu decided to tell Xianâer that he had already divided his love into two halves selfishly.
But...he didnât have the courage to say it.
Just let Xianâer sleep! Let yesterdayâs reunion become her dream! Let his death happen in her dream!
After confiding his idea, Su Yu walked to the door of the cottage. Then, he turned around and looked at Xianâer for the last time. Now, the regret in his heart had been resolved. He walked out of the cottage and looked at the sky.
The aura of the Central Prefectureâs King was so close.
It is time to leave here now.
Su Yu took a step forward without turning around again. Then, he rushed out and tried to stay away from Xianâer.
Two hours later...
Su Yu appeared in a barren wasteland.
Standing in front of a long river, Su Yu was prepared to meet the challenge by wrapping the Celestial Destroying Arrow with the Vital Energy in his right hand.
It seemed he was about to wage a life-and-death fight with the Central Prefectureâs King, although his winning percentage was very low.
Scratch!
A deafening sound of void laceration came into Su Yuâs ears at this moment. It was so loud as if the entire heaven and earth had been torn open.
From the gap in the void, the aura of a king gushed out like surging waves.
âLetâs end this boring chasing here!â The Central Prefectureâs King stepped out of the void gap and stared at Su Yu from above coldly.
After being stopped for five days, he spent three days to arrive at this place. Finally, he caught up with Su Yu after eight days!
âReally? If you want to kill me, you would have done it a long time ago. You are afraid of the Celestial Destroying Arrow in my hands, right?â Su Yu said as he created a longbow with the Vital Energy in his left hand. Then, he fitted the Celestial Destroying Arrow to the string with his right hand and aimed it at the Central Prefectureâs King.
The expressionless face of Central Prefectureâs King changed a bit. His lips were twitching slightly. Even his eye pupils also constricted a bit.
Apparently, even Su Yu was not able to attack with the full strength of the Celestial Destroying Arrow, his attack would still be quite destructive.
âI will kill you even I could be wounded by your attack! The Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron is the key factor for me to become a deity. It has been obtained by you for too long a time!â The Central Prefectureâs King was determined to obtain the cauldron even he could be wounded by the Celestial Destroying Arrow.
Now, Su Yu was in a confrontation with the Central Prefectureâs King, and the situation was quite unfavorable for him.
However, Central Prefectureâs King didnât attack immediately because of the deterrence of the Celestial Destroying Arrow.
Suddenly, Su Yu frowned, and his face turned gray. Blue veins could be seen on his skin as his face was filled with a painful expression.
His hand, which was holding the Celestial Destroying Arrow, started to tremble slightly.
Then, he looked down and found a lump of gray air on his chest, which started to diffuse towards his limbs slowly.
âAm I poisoned?â Su Yu asked in pain. However, no surprise could be seen in his eyes. A relieving smile even appeared on his lips.
He knew he had been poisoned but pretended he didnât know that. There was only one reason that he didnât use the Milky Way Star Sand to detoxify the toxin. He didnât want to do that!
Because he was willing to be killed by the one who poisoned him.
A strand of approbation appeared in the cold face of the Central Prefectureâs King. Then, he said to someone beside him, âNicely done!â
Scratch!
A gap appeared in the void. Then, a delicate figure who was wearing colorful clothes stepped out. What a pretty and cute little fox fairy!
Isnât she Qin Xianâer?
However, compared to her sweetness yesterday, Xianâer was expressionless at this moment. Her eyes were dim and hollow.
Qin Xianâer walked out of the void gap and stood behind the Central Prefectureâs King reverently. Then, she said calmly, âMaster, thanks to your wonderful foresight, we got him!â
A strand of a faint smile appeared on the lips of the Central Prefectureâs King. Then, he said, âIn this world, there is a kind of person who is willing to be killed by the beloved one. You are one of them! Being sentimental is merit and also a fatal flaw for a person! I took her as my disciple, just in case you attack me with the Celestial Destroying Arrow!â
Su Yu was losing control of the Celestial Destroying Arrow gradually. Seeing that, Central Prefectureâs King started to smile arrogantly.
He didnât wipe out the Zhenlong City because he knew Su Yu would come to this place sooner or later.
The Central Prefectureâs King took Qin Xianâer as a disciple because he knew Su Yu was a man who owed a lot to Qin Xianâer and was willing to be killed by Qin Xianâer even when he knew it was her plan.
When the Central Prefectureâs King found Qin Xianâer, he found deep hatred in her eyes, which reassured him that this girl would become a sharp knife to kill Su Yu.
Now, she did what she wanted to do as expected.
At this moment, Su Yuâs energy was about to be exhausted by the toxin. Seeing this, Qin Xianâer, whose eyes were still full of deep hatred, asked coldly, âDo you regret? Do you regret making the decision to choose Xia Jingyu by abandoning me?â
A strand of blood appeared on Su Yuâs lips, which meant the toxin had taken effect.
He knew clearly that Qin Xianâer poisoned him when he hugged her in his arms yesterday.
Since he was about to die soon, he would rather die in her hands. Maybe her hatred could be diluted a bit in this way.
âI regret...â Su Yuâs voice became shaky because of the toxin. However, he still said firmly, âI regret that I fell in love with two girls at the right time. But I donât have the courage to undertake your love at the same time. I am more regretful that I hurt both you and Jingyu!â
Qin Xianâer was not swayed by his words. She stepped out and shouted coldly, âThen, do you know you deserve to die?â
Su Yu didnât reply because the toxin in his body was the best answer. So, he would rather die in the hands of Qin Xianâer.
âOK! Xianâer, take his Celestial Destroying Arrow away and let me clean up the mess...â the Central Prefectureâs King said calmly as if he was in front of a corpse.
He didnât dare to touch the Celestial Destroying Arrow before he was sure that Su Yu had been killed.
However, before he could finish his words, he turned around and shouted abruptly, âWhat are you doing?â
He saw a pitch-dark dagger that had been stabbed into his waist.
The one who stabbed him was his disciple Qin Xianâer!
Qin Xianâer replied calmly, âKill you and solve the Tribulation of Human for my brother Su Yu!â
âYou! Traitor...â the Central Prefectureâs King was totally annoyed because he didnât expect Qin Xianâer could betray him at this moment.
Hearing this, Qin Xianâer retorted calmly, âLike Master, like disciple! I acquired this skill from you, Master!â
The Central Prefectureâs King betrayed his Master Shen Yichen. Now, he was betrayed by his disciple Qin Xianâer!
