Shen Yiyao finally tremblingly felt a little bit of her thoughts returning.

She suddenly hugged Su Chen, murmuring again and again, "Am I not dreaming? Am I not dreaming?"

She was truly frightened.

Su Chen's monstrous nature was dizzying and maddening.

She could not find the words to describe it.

Like a dream, like an illusion.

"Such a silly girl." Su Chen patted Shen Yiyao's beautiful back. This girl, though clumsy and a bit spoiled, was genuinely good to him. He was not cold-hearted and was naturally moved.

"You big villain, you are so amazing, sob sob sob, you still scared me, sob sob sob..." The next moment, Shen Yiyao remembered something and suddenly lifted her head. Her stunningly pure face showed shyness, surprise, and anger. She clenched her fair little fists and started pounding on Su Chen's body.

"I've always said I'm amazing, but you think I'm not." Su Chen smiled.

"Anyway, you tricked me, made me so worried. Do you know how scared I was when I woke up in front of Qi Sword Emperor's tomb, felt Yuaan Suifeng's terrifying aura, and heard he wanted to kill you? Those hundred breaths were the most worrying and suffocating moments I've ever experienced. I used all my speed just to find you a second sooner. Unexpectedly, you, the big fraud, the big villain still tried to scare me..." Shen Yiyao seemed to have endless words, expressing quickly with some grievance.

As she spoke, Su Chen held her tighter.

This little fool.

Nearby.

Finally.

The swordsmen began to regain their thoughts gradually.

Then, they started trembling. Each swordsman, as soon as their mindset returned, was drenched in cold sweat. They truly feared Su Chen and dared not look straight at him but bent slightly, gazing at Su Chen with infinite reverence.

The scene of Su Chen instantly killing Yuaan Suifeng was already etched deep in their minds, unforgettable for a lifetime.

Zhao Lingxi's face fluctuated between flushing and a hint of paleness.

She bit her red lips, feeling regret, shame, surprise, reproach, coquettishness, and admiration...

She stared at Su Chen.

Hesitated for a while.

She finally started to move towards Su Chen.

Su Chen released Shen Yiyao and stood shoulder to shoulder with her, raising his head, looking at Zhao Lingxi coming towards him.

An interesting little girl.

"I'm sorry." The next moment, Zhao Lingxi arrived before Su Chen and said softly.

"Why apologize?" Su Chen smiled.

"Earlier, I underestimated you, I thought..." Zhao Lingxi couldn't continue. She thought Su Chen was an arrogant, ignorant, clueless fool, not realizing...

"I forgive you." Su Chen was in a great mood. This little girl was quite interesting, especially when blushing.

"Hmph." Shen Yiyao snorted, secretly pinching Su Chen's waist. She was jealous. This jerk! Big jerk! Always attracting attention!

Zhao Lingxi sensed Shen Yiyao's displeasure, and her beautiful eyes slightly dimmed.

She admitted she admired Su Chen even more.

She, a fangirl, was more enchanted—Su Chen's previous performance was simply amazing, incredibly handsome. Her emotions felt like taking a roller coaster ride with Su Chen, from Hell to Paradise, from underground to the clouds... She wished she could just attach herself to Su Chen.

Unfortunately, Su Chen and Shen Yiyao... Shen Yiyao was not only astonishingly beautiful, but undeniably strong, also the Little Princess of the Eternal Wild Divine Pavilion.

Compared to her, although Zhao Lingxi was also top-level in terms of beauty, she had to admit she fell a bit short compared to Shen Yiyao.

Speaking of status, her own status was sufficiently intimidating, standing at the apex of the Great Luo Heaven's pyramid, but Shen Yiyao was not inferior in the slightest, only stronger.

As for her relationship with Su Chen, obviously, Shen Yiyao already knew Su Chen well and they were a perfect match.

From any aspect, she was at a disadvantage.

Zhao Lingxi had self-awareness; she thought it would be difficult to be with Su Chen...

Moreover, most crucially, if no accident happened, at most in three years, she would die, right? Even her aunt couldn't save her.

Thinking of her lifespan, Zhao Lingxi forcibly extinguished that bit of impulse within her heart.

Perhaps, being able to witness Su Chen's instant kill of Yuaan Suifeng today, was enough to remember for a lifetime, and it was enough.

Zhao Lingxi took a deep breath, raised her head, gazed deeply at Su Chen, then said, "If fate allows, we shall meet again."

Then, she turned her head.

Her beautiful eyes glistened with a hint of mist.

Clearly, she was romanticizing her feelings but felt like she had fallen in love, and then lost it.

She actually felt a bit of pain.

Zhao Lingxi held back her tears, not crying, she quickened her steps, eager to leave.

"Wait." However, Zhao Lingxi had walked only three or four steps when Su Chen spoke.

Zhao Lingxi's delicate body trembled, feeling surprised, expectant, a little disbelief, also somewhat at a loss.

"You big jerk, you..." Shen Yiyao's jealousy flared instantly; she glared at Su Chen.

"Behave." Su Chen hugged Shen Yiyao's slim waist tighter, feeling the tender softness, his mind swayed, he pampered, then Su Chen looked at Zhao Lingxi's fairly thin and fragile back, saying, "I can save you!"

"..." Zhao Lingxi was momentarily stunned, but quickly, she thought of something, she turned sharply, stared tightly at Su Chen, "What did you say?"

She thought she misheard.

"I said, I can save you." Su Chen said seriously, "Possibly, only I can save you."

"You... you know my situation?" Zhao Lingxi's voice trembled.

"I know. If I don't act, in less than three years, you'll surely die. Even whoever is extending your life now, however mighty, can't let you last till three years later." Su Chen affirmed.

Zhao Lingxi was excited!

Excited beyond control!

She couldn't even speak, "You... you... are you serious?" However, she suddenly bitterly mumbled, "Impossible. Aunt said nobody can cure me."

Thinking of aunt's status, her words could not be wrong.

Zhao Lingxi's briefly stirred excitement, thrill, expectation, desire for life, instantly extinguished again.

"My aunt said there's no one who can save me." Taking a deep breath, Zhao Lingxi calmed her emotion, looked at Su Chen, seriously said, "Still, thank you for caring about me."
