Chapter 701: Chapter 555: The End
The Divine Wind Mark on Su Yuanâs forehead dissipated, the golden energy in his eyes disappeared, and the layer of golden flowing wind on his body also vanished.
The Oath of Returning Ruins was undone. Just as Su Yuan was about to sigh in relief, a sudden and intense pain erupted from his chest and meridians, as if his body was being torn apart.
âUgh!âŠâ
Su Yuan let out a muffled groan, his face suddenly turning pale.
âPooji (Master)!â
A black light appeared in front of Su Yuan, revealing Ruan Ruan who had transferred over.
Ruan Ruan was the only one able to transfer between the various spaces in the Qingming Realm and control the Phoenix Vein to manipulate Star Power.
The rest only had the freedom to enter and exit the Qingming Realm Main Space.
Ruan Ruanâs eyes were full of concern. She jumped up and transformed her hands to embrace Su Yuan, activating the Sea Soul Protection.
Su Yuan immediately felt much cooler, and the needle-like pain significantly lessened under the soothing influence of the Water Element.
Su Yuanâs tightly knitted brows gradually relaxed.
âPooji, pooji pooji (Master, is it better)!â
Su Yuan rubbed Ruan Ruanâs head, forcing a smile: âIâm fine, itâs just the first time using this skill, my body isnât quite adapted⊠already feeling much better.â
During the fight earlier, he hadnât used much Radiant Moon Level Star Power. Now, with the Oath of Returning Ruins undone, Su Yuan still had enough Star Power.
However, enduring the enormous strength of the Radiant Moon Level was indeed taxing on the bodyâŠ
Additionally, the Divine Wind Mark of the Returning Ruins Divine Wind had also fallen dormant. It could not be called upon until it restored 10 units of Ruins Time.
Hearing Su Yuan was okay, Ruan Ruan breathed a sigh of relief, golden tears of fear still glistening in her eyes.
Su Yuan pinched Ruan Ruan and smiled: âMade of water, huh? Always crying.â
âPooji ji!âŠâ
Ruan Ruan buried her head in Su Yuanâs chest, rubbing tearfully.
Su Yuan chuckled and embraced Ruan Ruan. Then, with a thought, the Heavenly Lock ensnaring Jiang Hengâs Moon Disk flew back.
Upon examining the Moon Disk, even Su Yuan couldnât help but feel a surge of excitement.
It had a total of 28 drops of Moon Milk, double what Tong Ming had earlier!
Inside were also the Moon Milks Jiang Heng and others had collected, along with Jiang Ming and Ji Changyeâs spoils.
But now, it all fell into Su Yuanâs hands.
âJust like Ashley said, quite a lot indeed!â
Su Yuanâs heart raced. Counting these 28 drops, he now had exactly 50 drops of Moon Milk!
This exceeded by a dozen or two what even the top sects in sword fights could collect!
Satisfied, Su Yuan put away the Moon Disk but remembered something.
âRight, thereâs still Mu KexianâŠâ
Su Yuan thought for a moment, then put down Ruan Ruan and vanished from the Qingming Realm.
âAlmost thereâŠâ
Outside, Mu Kexian had been using her remaining Star Power to break free from the Qiankun Single Lock.
But suddenly, the Qiankun Single Lock weakened inexplicably.
Mu Kexian redoubled her efforts, soon able to move freely again.
Just then, a black light began shimmering in the void ahead.
Mu Kexianâs heart tightened, hastily raising her gaze.
Itâs bad, Jiang Heng was coming out!
However, as the black light dissipated, it was Su Yuan in a black robe embroidered with gold who appeared.
Why him!
Mu Kexian was taken aback, but waited, seeing no sign of Jiang Heng.
Studying âQin Lianyun,â Mu Kexian noted his pale face and weakened aura, clearly in poor condition.
Regardless, he shouldnât have been able to come out!
Quickly shaking off her surprise, Mu Kexian composed herself.
The backlash from the Love Sword seemed to be unsettling her emotionsâŠ
Meanwhile, Su Yuan had moved next to Mu Kexian.
âWhereâs Jiang Heng?â Mu Kexian asked.
Su Yuan casually replied: âKilled him.â
âWhat?â
Mu Kexianâs pupils contracted, the suppressed emotions surged.
Jiang Heng, truly killed?
A Shining Star, defeating a Taishang Sect Radiant Moon core disciple?
Though unlikely, Jiang Heng not appearing meant no other explanation.
How did he do it!
Mu Kexian was shocked.
Ignoring Mu Kexian, Su Yuan extended his hand into her bosom.
âWhat?!â
Feeling a faint warmth from her abdomen, Mu Kexian shuddered, snapped back to reality.
âWhat are you doing!â Mu Kexian glared at Su Yuan, coldly rebuking him.
Mu Kexianâs tattered Golden Lotus white robe allowed Su Yuanâs hand to touch her silky skin briefly beneath the black robe.
Su Yuan remained impassive, swiftly extracting a Moon Disk.
âEight drops, quite a haulâŠâ Su Yuan chuckled, transferring the Moon Milk to an empty disk, âSaved you, so I deserve some reward. Iâll take these~â
Su Yuan smiled, placing the Moon Disk back into Mu Kexianâs chest.
Feeling the lingering warmth again, Mu Kexianâs expression grew colder: âYouâŠâ
Su Yuan interrupted: âWith over two days left, you may still find more Moon Milk.â
Just three drops more could let a Shining Star surpass Radiant Moon.
At this time, many Moon Milks matured in the Secret Realm. Mu Kexian could still find some.
âI wonât stay here any longer, until we meet again.â
Seeing the Qiankun Single Lock on Mu Kexian weaken, Su Yuan vanished.
âQin Lianyun!â Mu Kexian shouted.
But Su Yuan did not turn back, quickly disappearing through the Space Gate with Ruan Ruan.
Not long after, Mu Kexian broke free from the Qiankun Single Lock, chasing Su Yuan but losing his trail.
Mu Kexian frowned, looking around and finding no clues.
Soon, she calmed down.
Catching him, what then?
Mu Kexian pondered why she pursuedâŠ
Though he took her Heavenly Mountain Moon Milk, he did save her.
YetâŠ
Lowering her hand to her abdomen, Mu Kexian recalled the odd sensation.
Realizing she was still in his black robe, her expression chilled. She switched to her Golden Lotus white robe and tossed away the black robe before flying offâŠ
With Su Yuan and Mu Kexian gone, silence fellâŠ
After a while, a flash of white light heralded Mu Kexianâs return.
Looking at the black robe, hesitation flickered in her eyes.
Nibbling her lip, Mu Kexian picked up the black robe.
âWhat am I doingâŠâ
Holding the robe, Mu Kexian felt confused, unsure why sheâd returned, picking up the robe.
Remembering the moment he draped it over her, an unaccustomed feeling rose withinâŠ
Momentarily dazed, Mu Kexian shook her head firmly, folding the robe into her Space Ring, and leftâŠ
Time passed; two days flew by.
Guided by Ashley, Su Yuan collected 4 more Moon Milks. Counting the previous 50 drops and Mu Kexianâs 8 drops, he had 62 drops!
In Qingming Realm, the sacred glow faded as Ashley opened her eyes, the Destiny Star Track in her eyes slowing.
âHow is it?â Su Yuan asked.
Ashley replied: â16 drops.â
â16 drops, most collectedâŠâ Su Yuan nodded, taking out two Moon Disks.
One brimming with Heavenly Mountain Moon Milk, the other empty.
To be sure, Su Yuan placed 20 drops in the empty disk.
Any loss during battle could be his word, nothing to worry about.
Ultimately, winning first in the sword fight meant everything, irrespective of the sectâs concerns.
Ashley observed his distribution, suddenly asking: âDo you not trust me?â
âNoâŠâ Su Yuan coughed, quickly considering, âMatching his closely is risky.â
Ashleyâs red eyes scrutinized him, before nodding: âAgreed.â
Su Yuan exhaled in relief.
With 20 drops aside, he had 42 left, enough for his people, even surplus.
Handing the 42-drop Moon Disk to Ruan Ruan: âRuan Ruan, keep this safe.â
Ruan Ruan transformed, carefully taking the Moon Disk.
âRest assured, Master!â
Though the Moon Milks could be used in refining attempts, Su Yuan decided against preemptive use by Mo Fei, Ashley, or Antonios before his breakthrough.
Being cautious prolongs safety, despite contractual binds; among his followers, only Ruan Ruan had absolute trust.
Grasping the 20-drop Moon Disk, Su Yuan exited the Qingming Realm.
Returning to the Secret Realm, Su Yuan rested instead of seeking more Moon Milk.
With so much already, a few drops more wouldnât matter.
Time passed, approximately two hours later, the whole Secret Realmâs energy fluctuated unstably.
âItâs time.â
Su Yuan opened his eyes, the Moon Disk before him glowing, enveloping him in white light.
Moments later, the light dissipated; Su Yuan had vanishedâŠ
