Chapter 128 Tangled
Just as the blood-robed man was about to attack the two, a man in a green robe tore through the void and arrived. Without a word, the green-robed man thrust out his sword, its sharpness and dazzling light instantly forcing the blood-robed man back. The green-robed man coldly looked at the blood-robed man and said, "You're truly persistent, catching up so quickly. The Chosen One will let you go for now, but we'll meet again." His expression was stern, and his eyes revealed a powerful majesty.
The man in the blood-red robe snorted coldly. Although he was unwilling, he knew that it was not the right time to continue fighting. He turned around and disappeared in a beam of light.
Han Yi and Su Yao stared in the direction he had disappeared, their hearts filled with worry. They knew the man in the blood-red robe wouldn't let it go, and the future would surely be fraught with danger. Han Yi slowly stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and sighed, "This trouble is really getting worse." His eyes revealed a hint of helplessness and worry.
Su Yao also sheathed her immortal sword, looked at Han Yi and said, "Han Yi, this matter started because of you, you must give me an explanation." Her expression was serious and her tone was firm.
"Sigh! I'm too early. I should have come later and let him kill you, you piece of trash, before showing up." Qingfeng suddenly appeared, leaving behind this sarcastic remark before continuing his pursuit of the blood-robed man. A mocking smile played on his lips as he vanished into the horizon in a flash.
As soon as the two left, Su Yao snorted coldly, waved her jade hand, and immediately cast a spell to bind Han Yi and take him back to the sect. True fire appeared on Han Yi's body, easily dispelling Su Yao's spell. Han Yi looked at Su Yao helplessly and said, "Fairy Su, why are you doing this? You are no match for me at all, why be so persistent?" He spread his hands, his face full of bitter smiles.
Su Yao remained unmoved, raising her Ice Soul Sword once more and saying, "Han Yi, don't think I'll give up so easily." Her eyes were resolute, her sword pointed at Han Yi, showing no sign of stopping until she achieved her goal.
Han Yi shook his head helplessly, preparing to deal with Su Yao's attack again, secretly groaning in his heart.
Su Yao's face turned cold, and she raised her Ice Soul Sword again, saying in a cold voice, "Han Yi, don't be arrogant. Although I can't capture you right now, I won't let you get away easily." With that, she raised her sword again, and several cold lights shot towards Han Yi like lightning.
Han Yi shook his head slightly, dodged the sword attack with a flash, and said helplessly, "Fairy Su, why are you doing this? There is no deep hatred between us, and we just fought against the blood-robed man together, so we can be considered to have fought side by side."
Su Yao remained unmoved, her lotus-like steps shifting lightly, her swordsmanship becoming even more ferocious, and she shouted, "Stop talking! You have committed a grave error. As a member of the Hua Kingdom Cultivation Alliance, I will definitely take you back for punishment."
Seeing that persuasion was useless, Han Yi ignited true fire around himself, like a fiery armor. He stared at Su Yao and said, "Since that's the case, then I have no choice but to offend you." After speaking, he moved like a ghost and rushed forward, his sword clashing with Su Yao's Ice Soul Sword several times in an instant.
This time, although Han Yi did not kill her, his attack was fierce, and Su Yao gradually found it difficult to resist. Sweat beaded on her forehead, and her breathing became rapid.
"Fairy Su, you are no match for me. Stop now, or you will only get hurt more." Han Yi said while attacking.
Su Yao bit her lower lip and stubbornly said, "Absolutely not!" Suddenly, the sword in her hand shone brightly as she unleashed a desperate sword technique, with sword shadows filling the sky and enveloping both herself and Han Yi.
Seeing this, Han Yi frowned slightly, lightly touched the ground with his feet, and leaped back several feet. He sighed and said, "Fairy Su, it is not a wise move for you to disregard your own safety like this."
After catching her breath, Su Yao took advantage of Han Yi's retreat, made hand seals, and chanted incantations. An icy blue barrier rose around them, trapping Han Yi within it. "Let's see how you escape now," Su Yao said with a smug look on her face.
Han Yi was trapped inside the barrier, but he remained calm and composed. He condensed true fire in his hand, transforming it into a fiery bird. The bird rushed towards the barrier and collided with the icy blue light, resulting in a stalemate for a moment.
"Su Yao, your barrier won't hold me for long," Han Yi said.
Su Yao's heart tightened, and she intensified her spiritual energy output, attempting to reinforce the barrier. Just then, a strange spiritual energy fluctuation suddenly surged from Han Yi's body, causing cracks to appear in the barrier.
Su Yao was shocked, never expecting Han Yi to have such methods. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Han Yi broke through the barrier and instantly appeared in front of Su Yao, his sword pressed against her throat, but he did not pierce it. He simply said in a deep voice, "Fairy Su, do not force me any further."
A hint of despair and resentment flashed in Su Yao's eyes, but she knew she was powerless to resist, so she could only say hatefully, "Han Yi, you escaped today, but you will surely be punished in the future."
Han Yi slowly sheathed his sword and said, "Fairy Su, you should go back now. I have my own way of handling this matter, so you don't need to worry about it." With that, Han Yi flew away.
"Go ahead and run! I'll chase you wherever you go! You can't get rid of me!" Su Yao stomped her feet in anger and leaped after him.
As Han Yi made his way to Fengqiao Town, he used the Zhuyou technique. His spiritual energy flowed slowly through his body, and his damaged meridians were directly healed under the repair of the mysterious power. His originally seriously injured body was restored.
Su Yao followed closely behind, but was seriously injured. Coupled with the exhaustion from her journey, her spiritual energy was completely depleted. Suddenly, her figure swayed and she fell directly from the air.
Seeing this, Han Yi's heart softened. Although he had been entangled with her all along, he couldn't bear to see her like this. So he stopped and used his incantation technique to inject a gentle stream of spiritual energy into Su Yao's body, helping her stabilize her injuries and recover her energy.
Su Yao, having recovered from her injuries, continued her pursuit, and the two continued towards Fengqiao Town. They entered the town one after the other and headed straight for the inn. Inside the inn, Wang Weiwei and the others were eagerly awaiting their arrival. Lu Xuefeng was conversing with disciples of the Tianyan Sect; the atmosphere seemed relaxed.
When Han Yi appeared at the entrance of the inn, Wang Weiwei was pleasantly surprised and was about to get up to greet him when she caught sight of Su Yao following closely behind.
When Lu Xuefeng and the disciples of Tianyan Sect saw Su Yao, they were all so shocked that their eyes widened and their faces were full of disbelief.
Su Yao, as the number one prodigy of the Tianyan Sect, was renowned throughout the cultivation world. She wore a simple white dress, and although slightly disheveled, her aloof and stunning beauty remained undeniable. The Ice Soul Sword lay at her side, radiating a chilling aura. No one could have imagined that she would appear here, especially with Han Yi.
The atmosphere inside the inn suddenly became subtle and tense. Wang Weiwei was filled with doubt. She looked at Han Yi, then at Su Yao, wondering what had happened between the two. Lu Xuefeng was the first to recover and hurriedly stepped forward, respectfully bowing to Su Yao: "Senior Sister Su, what brings you here?"
Su Yao glanced at him briefly, but ignored him, her gaze fixed on Han Yi as if no one else existed.
Han Yi sighed helplessly and said to Wang Weiwei and the others, "This is a long story, I'm tired and going to rest." After saying that, he was about to walk into the post station.
Su Yao moved gracefully to block his path: "Han Yi, don't think you can escape like this."
Han Yi frowned: "I'm not running away. Follow me if you want! Lu Xuefeng, get a room for your senior sister!"
"No need, I'll share a room with him!" Su Yao waved her hand, telling Lu Xuefeng not to bother, she would share a room with Han Yi, and she would keep an eye on Han Yi at all times.
Lu Xuefeng and the disciples of Tianyan Sect were completely bewildered, but dared not say anything, only nervously watching the confrontation between the two. Wang Weiwei was anxious; she didn't know what had happened between Han Yi and this woman, and why they were sleeping in the same room.
"Senior Sister Su, how about I get you another room? After all, men and women shouldn't be so close, and it would damage your reputation if word got out," Lu Xuefeng said, mustering his courage.
Su Yao glanced at him, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes: "This is none of your business, don't meddle."
Han Yi gently pushed Su Yao away: "Are you sick? I won't give you any explanation. Come along if you want." After saying that, he ignored Su Yao and walked towards a guest room in the inn.
Su Yao bit her lower lip, watching Han Yi's retreating figure, her heart filled with conflict. She wanted to capture Han Yi and bring him back to the sect immediately, but she couldn't defeat him, so she could only follow him.
Seeing this, Lu Xuefeng cautiously said to Su Yao, "Senior Sister Su, you must be tired from your journey. Why don't you rest for a while?"
Su Yao gave him a cold look, but did not refuse. She slowly walked to a seat and sat down, her gaze never leaving the direction of Han Yi's room. The atmosphere in the inn remained heavy and uneasy, with everyone speculating about the relationship between Han Yi and Su Yao.
