Chapter 875: A Favor Returned?
"What’s going on!"
The strong man in a sturdy robe’s face turned serious, and he asked the disciple.
"Deputy leader, that woman… that woman."
The disciple panicked, his face filled with shock, and he gasped for breath as he said, "The one who escaped is the Miss of the Mysterious Sword Gate. The one left behind is her maid. They changed clothes last night when it was dark and we didn’t pay close attention."
Hearing this, the strong man’s face changed drastically, and he swiftly entered the ship’s cabin.
"What… idiot, a bunch of useless people, quickly go and find them, quickly!"
After a moment, such a loud shout came from the huge ship, filled with anger.
"Swoosh, swoosh…"
Inside the huge ship, many small boats flew out, heading towards a certain direction. There were many figures flickering on the ship, their aura fierce and resentment permeating the air.
Time passed slowly, and the sky gradually turned dark.
The setting sun cast a layer of orange-red halo over the solitary island, and in the distant vast expanse of sea, a faint layer of mist started to appear.
On the horizon, a red sun hung low in the sky, shining its lingering light. It made the layers of clouds shimmer with a golden glow, like a flickering flame at the edge where the sea and sky meet.
On the sea, colorful rays spilled, with sparkling waves gradually giving way to a quiet and deep twilight.
"Hmm…"
Inside the crevices of the rocks, the unconscious girl let out a soft "hmm," as if a faint breath was subtly disturbed by the spreading power of the medicine in her body.
"Hoo…"
Su Yi stopped practicing, his handprints retracted. The scarlet aura around his body subsided, and his life force seeped back into his pores. His slightly closed eyes quietly opened, a ray of light flickering and disappearing.
The girl’s eyelashes trembled, and she gradually opened her eyes, her gaze momentarily blank.
"Um…"
Suddenly, the girl tried to struggle to sit up. It seemed like she was injured, her body feeling weak and frail. She couldn’t stand up completely, only managing to sit halfway.
"You’ll be fine, just rest and heal for a while," Su Yi said, speaking to the now awake girl.
As she looked at the face in front of her, the girl’s expression immediately changed. Without hesitation, she swiftly raised her hand and slapped Su Yi.
Just waking up, her energy not fully gathered, the girl’s weak slap didn’t make much of an impact. Instead, it almost made her fall down.
"Are you returning kindness with enmity?"
Su Yi sidestepped, furrowing his eyebrows slightly. He had kindly saved this woman, yet she repaid him with hostility. It seemed like all women were like this, he silently whispered to himself, deciding to not help any women in similar situations in the future.
The girl, now alert, realized that the voice earlier didn’t belong to anyone from the Sea Dragon Gang. The person in front of her seemed quite young and not a disciple of the Sea Dragon Gang.
Memories of the scene before she lost consciousness flooded her mind, and the girl checked her body for any injuries.
The girl suddenly looked worried when she realized her graceful appearance was barely visible in the narrow gap between the rocks. She checked herself carefully, afraid that she had lost something, and asked, "How did I end up here? Where is this place?"
"We’re still on the island. Those people are already dead. I was afraid someone might come looking, so I brought you here," explained Su Yi.
Su Yi replied irritably, feeling unhappy because he had saved this woman with good intentions but didn’t receive any gratitude.
"How did you bring me here?"
The girl examined herself and didn’t seem to find anything missing. There were no signs of being touched, but she noticed her body seemed faintly visible. She stared at Su Yi and asked, "What happened to bring me here?"
"You were unconscious, so of course I carried you in. I couldn’t just kick you in with my foot!" Su Yi replied casually.
Su Yi raised an eyebrow and said calmly.
"You…"
The girl glared at Su Yi, seeming furious and frustrated. The thought of being carried by a man while she was unconscious made her wonder if he had done something to her.
The more she thought about it, the angrier the girl became, but she couldn’t show her anger and could only feel very frustrated.
"Don’t worry, you’re safe and sound. I’m not interested in you, I’m not like those people from Sea Dragon Gang," Su Yi said calmly, noticing the girl’s reaction.
"I…you…"
It seemed like what she was thinking was revealed by a single remark, and the girl’s pale face suddenly became a bit hot and red around her ears.
The girl recalled the scene before she fainted, but she didn’t want to think about it now. It seemed like she didn’t lack anything, so she asked Su Yi, "Did you save me? And did you kill the disciples from Sea Dragon Gang?"
"Hmm," nodded Su Yi.
The girl’s eyes moved, feeling the healing medicine spreading through her body. It was obvious that the person in front of her had given her the healing medicine. Her guard in her heart relaxed a little.
"You’ve already woken up, so I’ll take my leave. Take care of yourself."
The woman had already woken up, and Su Yi didn’t want to cause any more trouble. He had to take care of himself as well, so it was better to leave this place.
Looking at the other person wanting to leave, it seems like they have no purpose for themselves. Feeling her own situation, the young girl frowned slightly, her face appearing even paler under the moonlight. She said to Su Yi, "Slow down."
"Is there something else?" Su Yi asked, turning back.
The young girl looked at Su Yi, under the moonlight, feeling that the man in front of her also seemed quite young. His gaze was somewhat dim, but there was a hint of handsomeness in the haze. She said, "I must leave this place as soon as possible. But now I am too injured and I’m afraid I won’t be able to leave on my own. If you take me with you, and considering that you saved me, I will definitely repay you generously. I won’t treat you badly!"
At this moment, the young girl knew very well that she had to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the people from the Sea Dragon Gang discovered that the package was switched, they would definitely come looking for her, and then she wouldn’t be able to escape.
"I saved you out of humanitarianism, not for a reward. I’m not interested in taking you with me. Take care of yourself," Su Yi said.
Su Yi shook his head, not interested. He couldn’t even afford to take care of himself, let alone any ordinary reward.
What’s more, Su Yi didn’t want to be with this woman anymore. The people from the Sea Dragon Gang were looking for her, and it was likely that Mysterious Sword Gate behind her was no good either. In his current situation in the Chaos Realm, it would be better not to get involved.
"By the way, I’ve left a boat over there for you. Goodbye!" With those words, Su Yi didn’t look back.
In the darkness of the night, Su Yi pushed a small boat onto the sea and jumped aboard.
The boat was shaking and almost tipping over. There were oars on the boat, but Su Yi wasn’t very good at using them.
The boat kept swaying back and forth, just spinning in place. After a lot of effort, Su Yi finally managed to grasp the direction, but then discovered a bigger problem.
Aside from when they would be able to reach the shore in this vast sea, looking up at the bright moon in the sky and being able to tell the directions, Su Yi had no idea which way to go, or which side would lead to the shore.
The girl seemed to have gained a bit of energy, and at some point stood on a reef. Energy surged through her, and her damp clothes were covered in a faint mist, like steam. Then, her clothes were no longer wet, and appeared normal.
The girl’s gaze was fixed on Su Yi from a distance, watching as he wobbled and spun on the surface of the sea. A faint smile appeared on her pale face, as she already knew what was happening.
Soon, a small boat appeared beside Su Yi. The girl stood upright on the boat, without ever using the oars, yet the boat moved quickly.
Su Yi, who had been absentmindedly swaying, was stunned when he saw this scene. He squinted, trying to understand how the girl was doing it, making the small boat glide on its own.
"Do you want to cooperate a bit? It seems like you’re not good at boating. I can teach you. You bring me a piece, how does that sound? Otherwise, I don’t think you’ll be able to leave this place."
The girl stopped the boat next to Su Yi, seemingly wanting to discuss cooperation, but her tone and expression showed that there was no room for discussion, and Su Yi had no other choice.
"Okay."
Su Yi had no choice and didn’t hesitate. Even though he knew which direction to go, if he used a paddle, he had no idea how long it would take. Nobody knew how big this sea area was.
"Alright, let’s settle it like this!"
The girl was sure that Su Yi would agree. With a burst of energy in her toes, she lightly tapped, and her graceful figure jumped out and landed softly on Su Yi’s boat.
"Click, click…"
At the same time, the small boat the girl had just been on cracked and shattered, swept away by the waves.
"Swoosh…"
As the girl landed, her feet filled with energy. The boat shook and then swiftly glided forward at a quite fast speed.
"Pay attention, control the energy under your feet, don’t be impatient. Use the energy to propel the boat. The important thing is to have control over the energy. Give it a try." The girl demonstrated while sitting and said to Su Yi.
"So that’s how it is!"
Su Yi finally understood. No wonder the boat under the girl’s feet was sliding, it seemed mystical but it was actually simple. She was using the swirling energy under her feet to create a vortex and propel the boat.
However, although it seems simple, it’s actually not. It requires precise control and mastery of the energy.
Su Yi tried it out, feeling a bit uncomfortable at first. The boat was shaky and spinning in place, with waves splashing all around.
But soon, Su Yi found the balance. The boat started gliding and he could even steer it in the right direction.
The girl’s expression remained calm, but inside, she was amazed.
It may seem easy, but she knew that it required absolute control of the energy. This control had nothing to do with her skill level, and it seemed like this man was not an ordinary person.
"Where are we going now?"
Su Yi asked the girl, realizing that this method was much easier than rowing with his hands. However, it was still quite draining on his energy.
"Just go straight to the east, try to go faster, as long as we reach the shore, we’ll be safe," the girl replied to Su Yi.
"It’s you who will be safe, I have always been safe."
"I understand now, that must be a corner of Chaos Realm", Su Yi said, knowing the direction. For him, any place in Chaos Realm would do.
