"Who are you? What do you want with Xing Chen?" Meng Xiner asked, her heart filled with confusion.
"Let's wait until he wakes up," Xu Yuxi replied, pursing her lips.
Her words made Meng Xiner's gaze toward her more vigilant, and even Xueqing's look at her slightly changed.
"You should go eliminate those Demon Sect members to relieve some pressure off Xing Chen," Xueqing said, glancing at Zhenque.
"Understood!" Zhenque nodded. He dared not be careless around these two mistresses; after all, they were Xing Chen's women. If they pointed him to do something while near Xing Chen, it would be disastrous.
"Yuxi, long time no see!" After Zhenque left, Xing Chen slowly opened his eyes and looked at Xu Yuxi.
"Yes, it's been a long time..." Xu Yuxi nodded.
After this exchange, the two fell into silence, unsure of what to say. For Xing Chen, Xu Yuxi was the first girl to enter his heart, but at that time, his soul was completely closed off, so he did not express anything.
Although Xing Chen had once used forbidden techniques, Seven Kill Blood Seal! Seven Kill Transformation!, afterward his heart was once again sealed by the Fate Jade Pendant during the healing process, leaving no emotional traces behind.
So if there was anyone Xing Chen had deeper feelings for, it would still be Meng Xiner. After all, they had shared hardships together and could even be said to have faced life and death. Moreover, Xing Chen had indeed done many things for Meng Xiner in the ocean; if there were no feelings left, even a fool wouldn't believe it.
Xu Yuxi had feelings for Xing Chen as well, but at this moment, seeing Xing Chen and the two women beside him, she truly didn't know what to say.
"Have you also betrayed the Eastern Region?" After a long silence, it was Xing Chen who broke the quietness with a question.
"Yes, we betrayed the Eastern Region. Are you going to kill me?" Xu Yuxi's eyes misted over with tears that quickly blurred her vision.
"You shouldn't have betrayed the Eastern Region..." Xing Chen said after a moment of silence.
"But we did betray the Eastern Region." Xu Yuxi revealed a hint of self-deprecating smile on her delicate face, which had already looked haggard and became even more so.
"Sigh, I don't want to talk about it anymore. Yuxi, you all should leave! Otherwise, when Master and the others arrive, I won't know how to explain," Xing Chen sighed softly.
"Do you still remember that you owe me three conditions?" Tears streamed down Xu Yuxi's eyes as she looked at Xing Chen.
"I remember. The first condition was for me to withdraw from the Azure Cloud Gang, but I didn't do it. You can bring up those three conditions again; I'll do my best to fulfill them," Xing Chen nodded, clearly recalling the matter.
Meng Xiner had tried several times to interject during the conversation between Xing Chen and Xu Yuxi, but she was stopped by Xueqing each time.
"For the first condition, could you not treat me this way? Yes, I did align myself with the Demon Sect, but it wasn't voluntary. Does that mean we can't go back to how we were before?" Xu Yuxi cried.
Although they had never explicitly expressed love for each other before, they could both feel each other's feelings, especially after Xing Chen used the Seven Kill Blood Seal! Seven Kill Transformation! for her. Xu Yuxi was even more certain that Xing Chen liked her, but before she could express anything, Xing Chen left the Sun Kingdom, and they hadn't seen each other since.
"I..." Xing Chen opened his mouth but couldn't find the words. Xu Yuxi was right; he was indeed somewhat resistant towards her now. Originally feeling guilty towards Meng Xiner because of Xueqing, he naturally didn't want to have any further relations with another woman.
"It seems it's not possible?" Xu Yuxi glanced at Meng Xiner and Xueqing, her face once again showing a self-deprecating smile.
Xing Chen fell silent; he didn't know how to respond to Xu Yuxi's words.
"Xing Chen, do you know how much Xiyer has sacrificed in this past year? Is this how you treat her now?" At this moment, Xu Dongyang could no longer stand by. Although he was somewhat timid and profit-driven, seeing his daughter in such a state made it impossible for him to remain indifferent.
"No need; he has already given me an answer. Father, let's go!" Xu Yuxi said as she held Xu Dongyang's hand.
"No! I must speak! Xiyer, over this past year, I have indeed wronged you by trying to arrange you with that beast Luo Tong. But now think about it: is your persistence worth it? He treats you like this; he's not even as good as Luo Tong! At least Luo Tong truly liked you," Xu Dongyang said angrily.
"Luo Tong?" Xing Chen's gaze flickered slightly. He was very familiar with that name; however, after Luo Tong disappeared back then, he had not appeared again. Now hearing Luo Tong's name suddenly brought back memories of that person for Xing Chen.
“Xing Chen, since you have done things so thoroughly, I will not hide anything anymore. At the beginning, when the Demon Sect invaded, Xiyer was unable to escape in time and was trapped in Azure Cloud City. Fortunately, Xiyer was quite alert and managed to avoid being captured by the Demon Sect members.” Xu Dongyang suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at Xing Chen, finally showing a bit of a father's demeanor, wanting to help his daughter fight for her last happiness.
“However, Azure Cloud City is just a small place. The strong from Gaze of Fate swept through with their Soul Power, making it nearly impossible for anyone hiding to escape detection. It was during this dangerous moment that Luo Tong stepped in to save Xiyer, the same Luo Tong who had always been suppressed by you.”
“Nevertheless, I must admit that Luo Tong is not a good person. When he saw the decline of the Eastern Region, he forcibly took Xiyer to join the Demon Sect and claimed he had captured her, demanding that we come to rescue her.”
“Although I, Xu Dongyang, am not a good person either, I could not just watch my daughter fall into the hands of evil. So, together with my father Xu Shuo, I brought people to rescue Xiyer. But once we arrived, we were left behind by Luo Tong, and in the eyes of others, we became traitors.”
“Of course, I also acknowledge that because of Luo Tong’s protection within the Demon Sect, our lives were not bad; there was a sense of comfort. We even considered marrying Xiyer to Luo Tong. However, it was because of you, Xiyer, that she always opposed this idea. She was even nearly driven to suicide over it. How could you treat her like this now?” Xu Dongyang shouted angrily.
Xing Chen looked at Xu Yuxi, seeing her haggard expression, feeling a sharp pain in his heart. Then he spat out a mouthful of blood; it was clear that this matter had affected his mental state.
“Xing Chen...” Seeing him spit blood, Meng Xiner rushed over to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.
“I’m fine.” Xing Chen shook his head. At the same time, a light flickered around him, and the Starlight Beam from the Eastern Region began to sway slightly as if they might collapse at any moment.
“You continue! Right now, Xing Chen is using all his strength for the sake of the Eastern Region, binding those members of the Demon Sect. If you have the ability, keep provoking him; just wait until he suffers backlash—who will be the one to suffer?” Meng Xiner shouted at Xu Dongyang.
“Yuxi, I’m sorry!” The light around Xing Chen continued to flicker; it was evident that he was greatly shaken.
“You have nothing to apologize for; I have just been overly sentimental,” Xu Yuxi shook her head and turned away, not even acknowledging Xu Dongyang.
“This is not the time for these issues. Once we eliminate all the members of the Demon Sect, I believe that Xing Chen will give you a satisfactory answer,” Xueqing quickly stopped Xu Yuxi, saying.
“He has already given me an answer; I do not need any other response,” Xu Yuxi replied shaking her head.
“Listen to me; these years have not been easy for Xing Chen. He has been alone in unfamiliar seas while bearing such a heavy burden. He has lived almost every day in battle. I hope you can understand him,” Xueqing said as she looked at Xu Yuxi.
"I know it's not easy for him, so I don't want to make it difficult for him." Xu Yuxi glanced at Xing Chen, a faint smile appearing on her pale and haggard face.
"Yuxi, once we eliminate all the Demon Sect members, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer," Xing Chen gritted his teeth. At this moment, his body was intertwined with the fate of the entire Eastern Region, so he couldn't move. If he moved now, it could very likely affect the power of the Starlight Beam and allow those Demon Sect members to regain their ability to act.
Buzz!
At that moment, all the Xing Chen beams from the Sword Kingdom disappeared, proving that all the Demon Sect members in the Sword Kingdom had been eliminated. Subsequently, the Xing Chen beams from other countries also gradually vanished, and the pressure on Xing Chen eased significantly in an instant.
"Yuxi, don't leave yet. Just wait for me a moment longer; that's all I need," Xing Chen said through gritted teeth. With the disappearance of the Starlight Beam, his energy consumption had slowed down considerably, and he could even stand up again.
"Yuxi, come back! I don't want you to go," Xing Chen struggled to stand up and said slowly while looking at Xu Yuxi.
"Weren't you just telling me to leave?" Xu Yuxi replied, her eyes still glistening with tears as she looked at Xing Chen.
"I regret it. You can't leave; no one can take you away from me," Xing Chen said with a serious expression.
He was sure that he liked Xu Yuxi; it was just that he didn't want to make Meng Xiner sad, so he tried to hide this feeling. Now that he saw Xu Yuxi truly wanting to leave him, Xing Chen felt restless.
