Chapter 34: Princess' Heartbeat
Chapter 34: Princess' Heartbeat
Yan Ran knew very well that Yan Wuji was so powerful that it made people feel desperate. If she had not carried a "sea of blood" hatred on her back, she would definitely not be against someone like Yan Wuji.
Originally, she thought that since she fled to Sun Martial City, with Lin Jiannan's protection, Yan Wuji should have ignored her for the time being, but Lin Jiannan was defeated, Lin Jie was arrested, and she herself was in crisis. The ensuing blow almost made her almost desperate.
And just when she was in such a distress situation, Mo Xiu showed up. He came to save her especially, and said in front of everyone that Yan Wuji was not worthy of being his enemy.
As a result, Mo Xiu's image suddenly rose up in her eyes, and ripples appeared in her calm heart. She was panicked just now, but at this moment, she had calmed down somehow as if the upcoming storm was not worthy of her attention at all.
Mo Xiu naturally felt Yan Ran's eyes and understood Yan Ran's eyes, but he didn't take it seriously, but said to Yan Ran, "Let's go, I'll take you away."
"Take me away?"
Yan Ran was stunned, and wanted to ask: "Surrounded by so many people, how can we leave?"
After reaching Mo Xiu's gaze, she did not ask any questions in the end but chose to believe in Mo Xiu.
Opposite, Wang Mingkui sneered, "You still want to leave? Who do you think you are?"
He was indeed bluffed by Mo Xiu just now, but after thinking about it, he felt something was wrong. How could someone be so arrogant? He was afraid that this was a bluff instead!
Moreover, Mo Xiu and Yan Ran were only two people in total, but there were thousands of city guards on their side, and Wang Mingkui himself was a Core Formation cultivator.
The power gap between the two sides was so great, did he still need to be afraid of Mo Xiu?
Moreover, Yan Ran was of great significance to him, but Mo Xiu wanted to take Yan Ran away. How could he allow this?
It was not impossible for him to let Mo Xiu go, but he absolutely could not let Yan Ran escape no matter what, otherwise, it would be more than just a waste of work.
Since Mo Xiu was so arrogant, he simply stopped being polite, and his tone became extremely cold, "I don't know who you are, but since you are here to save Yan Ran, let's stay together with her today."
As soon as he dropped this, Wang Mingkui gave an order to let the city guards rush up and arrest Mo Xiu and Yan Ran.
However, the next moment, a terrifying pressure came without vision.
All the city guards, including the city lord Wang Mingkui, were still unable to take steps under this horrible pressure, and even trembled faintly, making it difficult for them to even breathe.
"How... how can this be?"
Wang Mingkui was sweating violently and looked at Mo Xiu again, with a hint of nervousness and terror in his eyes.
Of course, he knew that the pressure came from Mo Xiu, but he had never felt such tyrannical pressure.
How terrifying was this seemingly young person? He was afraid that even Wan Yixuan, one of the four masters of the Yan Kingdom, was far behind this person, right?
Only then did he remember what Mo Xiu had just said, saying that Yan Wuji was not worthy of being his enemy...
Could it be that he was not bluffing, but really regarded Yan Wuji at nothing in his eyes?
In this situation, Yan Ran was the closest person to Mo Xiu, but he didn't feel the pressure. She was just wondering why the city guards suddenly trembled like this.
She was puzzled, and suddenly heard Mo Xiu say, "If I want to go, who dares to stop me?"
Immediately after that, Mo Xiu stepped forward. Wherever he passed, the city guards were as if pushed by an invisible force, so that the blink of an eye, a passage was made.
Including Wang Mingkui, no one dared to stop, and no one had the ability to stop.
Yan Ran was stunned, feeling a little weird, but didn't say anything, and quickly followed Mo Xiu.
"Wait! You can't take her away!"
Seeing that the two were leaving, Wang Mingkui hurriedly shouted, "Wan Yixuan, one of the four masters of the Yan Kingdom, is leading the five great families to encircle and suppress the Mo's house, and Yan Ran is the one he wants to arrest. After he destroys the Mo Family, he will come back to look for Yan Ran. If you take Yan Ran away, it's no different from sticking troubles with you!"
"Wan Yixuan is dead." Mo Xiu said without looking back.
"What?" Everyone was shocked.
Wang Mingkui was even more surprised and almost speechless.
As a Core Formation cultivator and someone who had been in contact with Wan Yixuan, he was very clear about Wan Yixuan's power.
That was an existence beyond the Core Formation Realm. There should be no one in Sun Martial City who could be Wan Yixuan's opponent. But why did he suddenly die?
After all, how did Mo Xiu know the news of Wan Yixuan's death? Was it possible that Wan Yixuan died in Mo Xiu's hands?
"You... what is Your Excellency's identity?" Wang Mingkui couldn't help asking.
Mo Xiu didn't answer, but he took Yan Ran away and disappeared from the sight of everyone.
After a while, having been far away from Wang Mingkui and others, Mo Xiu just said, "Okay, you can go, no one should dare to move you in a short time."
"I"
Yan Ran did not leave immediately.
She stared at Mo Xiu's back, hesitating for a while before coming to Mo Xiu. Then She lowered her head and asked, "May I know what your name is? Also, if I want to see you in the future, how should I find you?"
"Don't come to me deliberately, I will come to you when I need you." Mo Xiu replied.
"..."
Yan Ran couldn't help but feel a little lost when she didn't get the answer she wanted.
However, she was not a hypocritical person. She quickly picked up her mood, looked up at Mo Xiu, and said very sincerely, "Thank you, you saved me again, although I may not have much to help you, but when you really need me, you must come to me."
"En." Mo Xiu nodded lightly, looked away from Yan Ran, staggered, and left.
After walking a few steps, Yan Ran's voice rang again, "That..."
"What?" Mo Xiu stopped and turned to look at Yan Ran.
Yan Ran hesitated for a while, and finally said, "Do you remember the Lin Jie from before? And another friend of mine. They also fell into Wang Mingkui's hands and were seriously injured. Can you help me save them too?"
Mo Xiu frowned, and did not immediately agree, but said, "I saved you because you are worthy of my rescue. As for the two people you mentioned the last time I saved Lin Jie's life was my favor to her. Why should I save her the second time?"
"I..." Yan Ran was a little embarrassed suddenly.
She thought that Mo Xiu was a good guy, and as long as she asked Mo Xiu to help her, Mo Xiu would definitely do it, but now, she realized that it didn't seem to be.
Mo Xiu was not the kind of person who would save anyone who was in trouble, but he had saved her twice.
He saved her because she deserved Mo Xiu's rescue?
In that case, was she a special existence to Mo Xiu?
As soon as she thought of this, her mind suddenly became subtler.
At this time, Mo Xiu said, "It's not impossible to ask me to save them. The premise is to see what you can give me."
"..."
Yan Ran fell into silence immediately.
She hadn't repaid Mo Xiu's two life-saving graces yet. What else could she give to Mo Xiu?
If there really was something that she could give Mo Xiu, she would've already repaid Mo Xiu's kindness a long time ago, and she would not wait until now.
After thinking hard, she could only say, "I can't give you anything now, but in the future... I will definitely be able to repay you, together with your two life-saving graces."
Mo Xiu stared at Yan Ran for a while, nodding lightly, "Okay."
"You... did you just agree?" Yan Ran was a little surprised, even though this was the answer she was looking forward to very much.
"Yes, I agreed." Mo Xiu nodded, "Let's go, I will take you to save people."
Generally, people who wanted to save Lin Jie and Lin Jiannan had to find a way to find out the whereabouts of the two. However, Mo Xiu knew everything about Sun Martial City, and he didn't need to make special investigations to know that they were now locked up in the city lord's mansion.
After a while, the two came outside the city lord's mansion.
Just when Yan Ran thought it would be troublesome, she saw Mo Xiu muttering an unknown formula as an invisible barrier formed by the power of True Energy enveloped the two.
After that, Mo Xiu took Yan Ran into the city lord's mansion. As if entering the land of no one, none of the guards in the mansion or even the Core Formation masters who were sitting in the city lord's mansion noticed their arrival.
"This... what is this method?" Yan Ran was surprised.
Mo Xiu did not answer.
There was nothing to answer. It was just a small invisibility secret technique, which might be a bit unfamiliar to the people of Profound Sky Continent, but for him, the former Everlasting Demon King, it was really not worth mentioning.
The two went straight to the place where Lin Jie and Lin Jiannan were detained, quietly resolved the guards, found Lin Jie and Lin Jiannan who were seriously injured and unconscious, and directly brought these two people out of the city lord's mansion.
During the whole process, the people in the city lord's mansion did not notice any change at all, and they did not find that Lin Jie and Lin Jiannan, who were arrested by them, were rescued.
Not long after, the two brought Lin Jie and Lin Jiannan to a deserted place.
Yan Ran took out two pills and mobilized her True Energy to help them take them. A moment later, the two woke up as expected.
"Miss." Lin Jie called out softly.
Lin Jiannan looked around, and soon, his eyes quickly fell on Mo Xiu.
"It's already okay." Yan Ran said to the two of them.
Seeing that the two woke up, Mo Xiu said goodbye to Yan Ran and turned away.
Yan Ran looked at him with a little melancholy.
Lin Jiannan noticed Yan Ran's gaze and couldn't help asking, "Princess, did he save us?"
"Yeah." Yan Ran nodded lightly.
"Where is Wan Yixuan?" Lin Jiannan asked again.
"He took people from the five great families to attack the Mo Family, but it is said that he is dead." Yan Ran replied.
"Dead?" Lin Jiannan was very surprised, "Is there anyone in the Mo Family who can deal with Wan Yixuan?"
"The news should be true, but I don't know what's really going on." Yan Ran shook her head slightly.
Lin Jiannan was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Your Highness, the Mo Family may be your strong support, but if you want to get their help, the easiest way is to marry them."
"Marriage?" Yan Ran was stunned, "With whom? Mo Xiu?"
Lin Jiannan nodded and sighed again, "Your Highness, you are the one who wants to avenge Yan Wuji, so... forget the person just now."
