She was touched by Su Yu's devotion, though she was still pained by his disregard for his own life for the sake of Xianer
The killing intent in the eyes of the Holy King deepened ”Back down, or you too will die!”
”Please, Holy King, fulfill his wish!+” Xia Jingyu begged and pleaded, her pretty eyes persistent
”Hued!
It was still tolerable with one person provoking his majesty, and now another person, where was hiswould be able to determine both their lives and deaths!
It was not entirely absurd for one person to go against the Holy King—but now there were two! The Holy King could order their deaths with a single ould happen now?!
Just as the deaths of the two rebels seeure appeared
”Master! Please give Su Yu a chance!” Qiu Changjian bowed as he appealed to the Holy King on his friend's behalf His heart tre Su Yu's past could one understand Su Yu's persistence Su Yu fought for kindness and loyalty, whatever the cost may be Would it not be a pity to destroy a person with such senti was astonished for the first time
His ten nominal disciples, ordinarily so subservient and obedient under his constant rule, had suddenly spoken out against hi! Please give Su Yu a chance!”
Swish, swish, swish—
Countless older prospective Holy Disciples groveled on the ground siether as they begged the highest of the nine heavens to reconsider—it was a pleading chorus! They were moved by Su Yu Unlike countless other , all for the sake of one person!
”You all” The Holy King was furious; all his disciples were defying him, thanks to this Su Yu!
Mind over h off a single rebel, and two he would quell quickly But three, he would at least hear their grievances But a hundred people now stood in opposition
The Holy King could not help but begin to doubt his decision His resolve was shaken as he observed all the pleading faces, and he considered things for a aze flipped back to Su Yu
”Alright! I'll give you a chance, I'll give all of you a chance! You can all stay in the Sanctuary again for a month Then, at the Storm Competition, if you can earn a spot in the top ten, I'll let you stay by ive them a chance, but the cost would be exceptionally brutal
The Holy King focused on Su Yu ”But, Su Yu, in a month, if you fail to reach the ability of a Holy Disciple, what should be your punish was such a legendaryso dis' reputation He had already displayed his generosity by not killing Su Yu where he stood If Su Yu failed to achieve what he was deter would do
”I know; death!” Su Yu nodded deeply
”That's right! Death!” the Holy King confirmed coldly ”But, not your death—hers!”
The Holy King's finger pointed outward, and a thread of strange holy power struck Xia Jingyu's body! Xia Jingyu lightly hummed as she felt a destructive power fill her body
”If I do not take the holy power back she will be overco's icy voice was veiled with anger
Su Yu's expression changed ”I' her?”
Swoosh—
The Holy King storh he was clearly in front of Su Yu one moment, the next moment he was deep inside the hall Just a blink and the Holy King was gone! Even if Su Yu were to fully use the space-time manipulation technique, he could never catch up to the Holy King!
Bang—
The inside of the hall was plunged into darkness as the huge stone door slowly closed
Before the door fully closed, the apathetic voice of the Holy King echoed outward, ”For a ards death, true pain is not their own de at Xia Jingyu, Su Yu was stunned He tried to express the remorse in his heart but was at a loss for words He had been the one to bargain with death, but soyu would pay the price
”Jingyu, I” Su Yu's guilt was indescribable
Xia Jingyu looked placid as ever, as she sh she tried to restrain herself, she was unable to hide the slight waver in her voice which revealed her inner instinctive fear of death Xia Jingyu coet Xianer back—even if it rets”
Su Yu's heart quivered as he felt pangs of pain He owed Xia Jingyu a lot and would never be able to repay her
