Chapter 435 She's out
Chapter 435 She's out
The man chuckled softly and sighed.
What are we chasing after?
That girl is using the fastest movement technique of the Tianqian Sect—Sankun. She's no longer in the black market, so how could she possibly catch up?
He had only ever seen such a difficult movement technique performed by one other person.
"No need, all of you may leave."
Another person came out, slapped him on the shoulder, and teased, "Really not going to chase him? Even if you're a disciple of the Tianqian Sect, there's absolutely no reason for you to break the rules."
"She saved my life, and now I'm returning the favor by being a disciple of her sect. That way, I won't owe her anything."
The cause and effect have been resolved, and the past ties have all dissipated.
From that moment on, the legend of the sword immortal on this azure sea should have ended in his heart.
The man withdrew his hand and said leisurely, "Suit yourself. Anyway, it's not like the old man is punishing me."

Qin Beiyao and Shui Lian'er were picking out interesting trinkets at a stall when suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd. A moment later, Su Yanqing rushed back with a serious expression on his face.
“Jiang Liqian and Xu Youan have disappeared without a trace. I don’t know what happened over there. A lot of people have come out. Let’s go out first and wait for them at the entrance. With things so chaotic right now, we definitely won’t be able to find them.”
Shui Lian'er refused to leave first; she felt uneasy, inexplicably sensing that the commotion was caused by Jiang Liqian and the others. If that were true, then they must be in danger.
Su Yanqing stopped her: "If you go over there, Jiang Liqian will have to worry about your safety. In the black market, we are just fish meat that can be manipulated at will. Only by getting out first can we help them."
Qin Beiyao quickly weighed the pros and cons and agreed to Su Yanqing's proposal.
The black market is full of people who work for others. If Jiang Liqian and Xu Youan really did something, they will only be used as tools to be captured and threatened.
He was confident that with their combined abilities, they would definitely be able to get out.
The premise is that there are no worries about the future.
The minority had to submit to the majority. Shui Lian'er didn't know whether to insist on going to find Jiang Liqian and the others or to go out and wait for them outside. She half-dragged and half-persuaded them, and was taken to the outside of the black market by the two of them.
As soon as they came out, they saw Shi Tou sitting next to the old man, leisurely drinking tea. They quickly went over and told him about the commotion that had suddenly occurred inside, and asked for his thoughts.
"I also think we should just wait outside and remain unchanged in the face of any changes."
Since all three of them had said so, Shui Lian'er could only pace anxiously back and forth by the Xuan Stone, watching the time tick by while imagining all sorts of terrifying scenarios in her mind.
The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to cry.
She should have refused to come out and went to find Li Qian instead. That way, at least they could face life and death together, which would be better than this agonizing wait.
No one knew how much time had passed when the mysterious stone in front of Shui Lian'er trembled, and the next moment, a blood-soaked figure was poured out of it.
Shui Lian'er was so frightened that she backed away. After seeing who it was, she called out Qin Beiyao and the others' names and ran over in shock to help the "bloody man" up from the ground.
"Junior Brother Xu, Junior Brother Xu, what's wrong with you?"
Xu Youan felt that everything was pitch black and he couldn't see anything clearly. He could only vaguely hear someone saying something in his ear. He reached up and grabbed the person's arm tightly.
"Teacher...senior sister..."
"Quickly give him the Spirit Gathering Pill, he's lost too much blood!" Qin Beiyao, who rushed over in a panic, took out a pill and handed it to Shui Lian'er, asking her to feed it to him.
Shui Lian'er almost dropped the pill Qin Beiyao handed her.
She had never seen her junior brother Xu so badly injured. How could one person bleed so much?
Xu Youan forced himself to swallow the pill, and then Shi Tou came over and used the secret techniques of the Tianji Pavilion to quickly heal him.
Su Yanqing was responsible for guarding against unknown dangers, and he stood guard around them with a vigilant expression.
After a while, Xu Youan finally recovered. His vision stopped blurring and his pain lessened considerably.
He was helped up and knelt on the ground, his eyes fixed on the entrance to the mysterious stone, his knuckles almost bursting from the force.
Suddenly, a tremendous earthquake shook the earth from an unknown source. The entrance to the mysterious stone opened, and another blood-red figure flew out, but she was carrying another person on her back.
This time, Shui Lian'er recognized Jiang Liqian immediately. She was overjoyed and wanted to run over, but a figure was faster than her.
The man stumbled and fell to the ground several times, but he got up without hesitation and rushed to her.
"Senior sister!" His voice was hoarse and bitter, filled with deep fear.
He was so afraid, so afraid that she had lied to him again!
Thank goodness, thank goodness, my senior sister is out, she's out...
Jiang Liqian's spiritual energy was already depleted. After she managed to put the woman on her back down, she immediately took out a few pills and swallowed them. She then quickly circulated the Qiankun Heart Technique to repair her nearly depleted spiritual meridians.
Seeing that Xu Youan was unharmed, she only slightly moved her eyes before they turned icy cold.
Her gaze was so cold, like a sharp sword piercing straight into Xu Youan's heart.
He staggered back, bewildered and heartbroken, a sudden, inexplicable panic of being abandoned creeping into his heart. He swallowed hard, trying to force a smile, but nothing came out. In the end, he could only murmur, like a joke, "Senior Sister..."
“Xu Youan,” Jiang Liqian said sharply, glaring at him, “if you think you can treat a life-or-death duel like that just now, then you can go back to your sect. I don’t need you by my side.”
"Senior Sister!" Xu Youan opened his eyes wide in disbelief, his eyes filled with deep hurt. He wanted to take her hand, but she didn't even look at him. She walked past him and settled the woman she had rescued under a shady boulder.
As her fingertips gently traced the Xuanling Iron Ring around her neck, Jiang Liqian calmly sensed the fluctuations of spiritual energy within it. She quickly found a breakthrough point, and with the release of the Spirit Suppressing Pearl, the iron ring fell off.
The woman groaned in discomfort, and bursts of blue light emanated from her body. Then, her legs slowly transformed into a light blue, shimmering tail.
"Are you still feeling unwell?" Jiang Liqian asked softly after feeding her a pill.
The woman blinked her captivating eyes, timidly clutching the hem of her blood-stained dress. Surrounded by Qin Beiyao and the others, she fearfully burrowed into Jiang Liqian's arms.
Jiang Li sighed, gently stroking her soft, long hair, and then turned to tell Qin Beiyao and the others what had happened in the black market.
She ignored Xu Youan, leaving him standing alone beside her, looking sad and helpless, as if he were about to break.
