Outside the Heavenly Azure Imperial Capital.
Huangyue Ridge.
Luo Xiu stepped through the night, holding Lin Xiyue, and gradually descended to the ground.
The Thousand Refinent Divine Needle flying their way was casually caught and crushed by him.
After a short while.
Luo Xiu landed smoothly with Lin Xiyue.
Lin Xiyue suddenly regained her senses, lightly twisted her delicate body, withdrew from Luo Xiu's embrace, and maintained a distance from him.
Luo Xiu looked at Lin Xiyue, whose face was pale and expression haggard, feeling a pang of pain in his heart, accompanied by endless rage.
Having suffered two consecutive blows from Liu Shang, Lin Xiyue was severely injured.
Luo Xiu took out an elixir from his Human Sanctuary and handed it to her, saying, "You heal first, leave the rest to ."
After brief hesitance, considering the current circumstances, Lin Xiyue extended her hand and accepted it.
She then realized, to her shock, that it was an Earthly Grade "Spirit Enrichnt Golden Pill," valued at ten million Spirit Jade in the cultivation world.
"Thank you. I'll give you money later."
Luo Xiu nodded slightly, knowing Lin Xiyue didn't want to owe anyone, so he went along with her.
He turned to face Liu Shang on the other side, showing extre killing intent in his eyes.
anwhile, Liu Shang was also scrutinizing Luo Xiu.
As their eyes t, Liu Shang suddenly grinned.
He recognized the man before him as Bai Haoran, the champion of the Sword Conference.
"What, does our Tianyuan Son-in-law wish to ddle in Heavenly Qing Empire's affairs? You must know that Miss Lin is a serious offender of Heavenly Qing, not to be tolerated by strict law!"
"Bai Haoran, considering your status, this official won't make things difficult for you. Just turn around and leave now, and I'll pretend I didn't see you tonight."
Luo Xiu expressionlessly took a step towards him, slowly saying, "Your smile is as repulsive as dog shit."
Upon hearing this, Liu Shang's gaze turned cold, "Bai Haoran, do you really think this official doesn't dare to touch you?"
"Boom!"
Unexpectedly, as his voice fell, a deafening blast resounded.
Luo Xiu appeared in front of him in an instant, grabbed his hair, and fiercely pressed his head down, slamming his knee hard into Liu Shang's nose.
The simple and brutal scene made Lin Xiyue, who was behind, widen her eyes.
Bai Haoran's style was strikingly similar to that man's!
Moreover, she could see, Bai Haoran was venting his anger on Liu Shang.
"Boom!"
Luo Xiu disregarded Liu Shang's explosive aura and slamd him to the ground, climbed on top, and unleashed a barrage of punches.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
As Luo Xiu punched one after another, within monts, the ground within a radius of several thousand ters had been struck into a massive pit, tens of ters deep!
Lin Xiyue, who had flown into the air, was stunned by the sight.
Feeling a sense of relief, yet questioning… just how furious must Bai Haoran be to vent in such a manner.
After a short while.
Luo Xiu slowly stood up, looking at Liu Shang beneath his feet, head spattered with blood, barely clinging to life, slowly raising his right hand, where a sphere of tri-colored lightning blood in his palm.
"Scum, you deserve to be crushed to dust!"
Yet, just as the Glazed Thunder struck down, a set of battle armor materialized around Liu Shang, enveloping his body, allowing him to steadily withstand a bolt of Glazed Thunder!
Seeing this, Luo Xiu's gaze darkened slightly.
"Is this… Heavenly Armor?"
Liu Shang let out a delighted chuckle, suddenly erupting with a terrifying aura, sprung to his feet, and boldly punched toward Luo Xiu!
Luo Xiu remained expressionless, unfazed, casually raising a hand to firmly catch his fist, just as he had effortlessly caught Lin Xiyue's sword with two fingers earlier.
The all-out strike, long prepared in secret, was blocked just like that, leaving Liu Shang bewildered, thinking to himself, he is a White Emperor!
He gritted his teeth fiercely and struggled desperately.
Yet Luo Xiu's hand was akin to an iron clamp possessing boundless power, making it impossible to retrieve his fist.
He suddenly realized that his strength was far inferior to this Tianyuan Son-in-law, at this rate, he would inevitably perish!
An intense survival instinct prompted him to let out a roar, his body twisted dramatically, producing eerie sounds of bones forcibly being torn.
In mid-air, Lin Xiyue witnessing this was unable to suppress a chilling sensation across her scalp.
Utilizing the imnse force from Luo Xiu's grip, Liu Shang forcibly twisted off his own right arm, resembling a gecko sacrificing its tail to escape!
After severing his arm, he turned and flew into the night sky, maximizing his speed.
On the spot.
Luo Xiu looked at the arm still encased in battle armor, seemingly lost in thought, not moving to pursue.
By this point, he was completely certain this was the sa Heavenly Armor as his own set, just a different design.
"Could he be part of Heaven's Aegis Army?"
From what Luo Xiu knew, only mbers of Heaven's Aegis Army could wear the Heavenly Armor.
"Forget it, I'll ask him next ti we et."
Luo Xiu retrieved the strange tal wrapping the severed arm, then casually tossed aside Liu Shang's severed limb, turning to fly towards Lin Xiyue in mid-air.
As Luo Xiu approached, Lin Xiyue raised her sword horizontally across her chest, filled with vigilance.
Not certain whether Luo Xiu was the sa as Liu Shang.
That he would save her, just because of her beauty.
Luo Xiu waved his hand at her, smiling, "Miss Lin, I an no harm."
Lin Xiyue remained expressionless, "Thank you, Brother Bai, for your help. Today's favor, I will repay."
Luo Xiu chuckled, thinking even the gratitude was expressed so coldly, truly fitting of Lin Xiyue.
He waved it off, indicating no thanks was necessary, then asked, "Miss Lin, where do you plan to go next?"
"Heavenly Azure Prison."
Luo Xiu frowned, "Even without injuries, with your Profound Emperor's strength, going there would be suicide."
"I know. But my husband is still there, and I will not act recklessly, I have my own rescue thods."
Hearing her words, Luo Xiu couldn't help but feel a pang of pain within.
For her husband, she'd walk into hell despite knowing it's suicide!
What could better define "love" than this?
After a short while.
Luo Xiu retracted his thoughts, saying, "Miss Lin, let go instead. I will help rescue your husband."
He knew if he didn't intervene, Lin Xiyue would surely walk to her death.
And conveniently, he was also heading to Heavenly Azure Prison to rescue those two Sanxing tribespeople.
Lin Xiyue looked at him, full of confusion, "Why?"
Luo Xiu gazed tenderly into her eyes, pondered for a mont, and said, "If I said... I adore you, willing to do anything for you, would you believe ?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiyue's beautiful eyes trembled slightly, turning her head to look elsewhere, "I already have a husband, my heart cannot hold anyone else."
Hearing this, Luo Xiu felt a sting again, sighing silently.
Yet he didn't know, the "husband" Lin Xiyue referred to was not the one in Heavenly Azure Prison but the one before her.
Lin Xiyue continued, "Besides, haven't you already married the Plateau Saintess?"
"In every aspect, the Plateau Saintess is far superior to , so why bother..."
Luo Xiu suddenly interrupted her, playfully teasing, "Alright, alright, I was joking with you. Who would adore you? Actually, I'm also headed to Heavenly Azure Prison to rescue people, helping you save your husband is just in passing."
Lin Xiyue clearly didn't believe his words, saying, "With your current status, acting this way would only affect relations between Tianyuan and Heavenly Qing."
Luo Xiu focused on Lin Xiyue, saying, "You just made a mistake in what you said."
"What?"
Luo Xiu replied, "The Plateau Saintess isn't as wealthy as you are."
Lin Xiyue: "..."
Luo Xiu chuckled, "Let's strike a deal."
"What deal?"
Luo Xiu suggested, "I'll rescue your husband, and you give five billion Spirit Jade, how about it?"
Lin Xiyue watched him intently, "Are you serious?"
"Then it's settled!"
Luo Xiu turned with flair, flying toward Heavenly Azure Prison, saying, "Your injuries are severe but manageable, find sowhere to assimilate the elixir and heal. I'll find you after rescuing the people."
Lin Xiyue quickly called, "Bai Haoran, wait!"
"Anything else?"
"If I add another five billion, can you rescue one more person?"
"Who?"
"Li Xiaoer."
"Deal!"
"..."
