Chapter 1360
by post_apiChapter 1360: The One Who Can Solve the Problem Is the One Who Started It
"Susu, before you leave, what did Master instruct you?"
Shi Susu clenched her silver teeth and managed to force out a few words.
"I will always follow Wei Hong as my senior!"
"Then what are you doing now!" Wei Hong’s eyes were sharp as an eagle’s talons.
"But this little thief has been too much! Senior, you don’t understand!" Shi Susu felt all her pent-up frustrations were about to overflow, constantly thinking about how she wanted to brutally hurt Su Yi.
Su Yi immediately remembered his masterpiece – the picturesque scenery inside the cave and the artificial respiration he performed for Shi Susu.
Unexpectedly, Shi Susu still held a grudge. Su Yi proudly gazed at Shi Susu’s flawless face, with rosy lips and dark, delicate eyebrows. It was a small revenge.
With such a beautiful face, fair as jade, it should easily win people’s favor, unless they’re angry.
Su Yi couldn’t help but smile wryly, unsure how to resolve this grudge.
With Wei Hong by her side, Shi Susu couldn’t act out. Her eyes slowly filled with tears, which rolled down her fair face.
"Tick tock, tick tock!"
Shi Susu’s expression was blank, her chilling gaze fixed on Su Yi. Her breath was heavy, and tears kept streaming down endlessly.
The woman’s eyes sparkled, tears streaming down her face. Su Yi felt quite embarrassed. If this got out, it would seem like he had really bullied her. Su Yi even scratched his scalp in frustration.
Originally alone, being falsely accused as a righteous gentleman was already unfair. Now, as the main figure of the Overlord Sect, carrying its reputation, he couldn’t let this young girl ruin it.
This is not a good way to continue, making an alliance is important, and we can’t stay stuck like this with this little girl.
Su Yi let out a sigh, suddenly had a brilliant idea, and a smile formed at the corner of his mouth. He said softly, "Elder Wei, the one who tied the bell should untie it. Let me solve this myself."
Elder Wei was taken aback when he heard this, then his eyes flickered and he wondered what idea this young man had this time.
Shi Susu snorted coldly, her delicate nose twitched, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she said in a cold tone, "So, you finally stopped avoiding me?"
Hearing these words, Su Yi smiled warmly, his eyes sparkling and deep, and he looked at Shi Susu with a smile.
"Miss Shi, there seems to be a misunderstanding between us. Let’s straighten things out first, shall we?"
The atmosphere became chilly, bone-chilling coldness filled the room. Wei Hong looked at the two of them, remained silent, and felt doubtful. What kind of grudge did these two people have?
"Alright! I want to see what you have to say!"
Su Yi’s eyes twinkled as he carefully recalled the scene from before, and he calmly said.
"In the beginning, inside the mine, I tried to escape. Did you take advantage of the chaos to put me in danger?"
Shi Susu hesitated for a moment, feeling a bit anxious as she argued.
"At that time, I didn’t know you, and my master told me not to trust anyone in the Central Region!"
Su Yi raised an eyebrow, waved his hand, and gently tapped his chin.
"Alright! So, if I saved you, is that the truth?"
A serious expression flashed in Shi Susu’s eyes, and her eyebrows furrowed. She remained silent for a while.
Seeing that Shi Susu didn’t speak, Su Yi smiled faintly and continued.
"Miss Shi, if that’s the case, on that day, you were badly injured and unconscious. It’s true that I treated and saved you, right?"
Shi Susu furrowed her brow and took a while before managing to speak a few words.
"Really?"
"Then, you were drowning and unconscious, so I performed CPR on you. Was it wrong?"
Shi Susu’s clear and tranquil eyes flickered with a hint of nervousness as she tightly pursed her lips.
"No… no mistake!"
"So, if you disguise yourself as an old man, how can I treat you?"
"…"
Shi Susu remembered the day when she lay on the ground in the cave, her pure white body covered only by a piece of torn clothing, her hair messy, and a bloodstain on her leg. Recalling it now, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of panic, and her cheeks turned pink.
"Then why did you leave such a mark on me?" Shi Susu shouted loudly, her grievances pouring out with tears in her misty eyes.
"Whether it’s true or false, you can tell with just a little observation of your cultivation. You played a trick on me, so I scared you back. It’s just a fair exchange."
Su Yi shrugged his shoulders and casually said.
"You! Shameless! Fraud!" Shi Susu angrily scolded, her energy surging as a cool and powerful light rose from her palm, ready to shoot towards Su Yi.
Su Yi’s gaze darkened as he glanced at Elder Wei Hong. Wei Hong already had a deep understanding of the situation and had quietly stepped back behind the curtain, taking a deep breath and watching the two of them resolve it on their own. Su Yi continued to smile.
"Since things have come to this, there’s no right or wrong. But the heavy sword has already chosen its master. Even if you take it back, it won’t work. However, I have a suggestion. Will you listen?"
Shi Susu slightly pursed her lips, her snowy hands trembling, while her mind was deep in thought.
Originally, leaving the Chaos Realm without permission to practice in the Central Region was already a taboo in the sect. Now, the dispute between Shi Susu and Su Yi had different perspectives.
Currently, the Overlord Sect was the greatest support for Cangyun Temple to enter the Sealed Thunder Valley. Without Su Yi, it would be difficult for Shi Susu and Cangyun Temple to enter the heart of the valley. Shi Susu was very aware of this.
However, the grievances and frustrations in her heart made it difficult for her to make a decision. Shi Susu’s delicate and graceful face was filled with anger, and her eyes sparkled with a cold light as she softly spoke.
"What are you saying!"
"Since we’re going to form an alliance and enter Sealed Thunder Valley, if there’s any doubt in your heart, it’s definitely not a good thing. If you’re feeling frustrated, I’m not happy either. How about I stay here, just like today, but I can let you hit me three times. If I take a step forward, I’ll give back the Blood Demon Killing Excalibur in its original form, and I’ll also apologize to you. If I don’t move, we can forget about our grudges between us! What do you think?"
Today, Su Yi and Luan Shuo’s conflict was witnessed by Cangyun Temple and Shi Susu. Su Yi’s physical strength has reached an extraordinary level.
Shi Susu is still lacking in cultivation compared to Luan Shuo. If they were to clash head-on, there would definitely be some damage, which would be highly unfavorable for tomorrow’s Sealed Thunder Valley Ceremony.
Wei Hong’s eyes sparkled, and he quickly waved his hand and spoke.
Cangyun Temple is a top force in the Chaos Realm. If their exceptionally talented disciple couldn’t even make a single step back against a young man solely relying on his physical strength, it would be a huge loss of face for Cangyun Temple if this news spread.
"No, Sect Leader Su. Susu’s cultivation is still low, and she might get injured!"
"I only rely on my physical power! I won’t use any elemental energy," Su Yi’s gaze slightly darkened as he spoke to Wei Hong, ensuring him to rest assured.
Shi Susu also knew her situation, but besides this trade, she had no other choice.
It’s certain that the Blood Demon Killing Excalibur couldn’t be retrieved anymore. Even if she could vent her anger a bit using her own strength, even if she would get injured, it would be worth it.
"Okay! Come on!" Shi Susu’s face lit up and her body trembled slightly.
As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Susu’s body became filled with the power of wind, and intense energy waves began swirling madly around the room, transforming into countless sharp wind blades.
