Chapter 6:
Chapter 6: Blushing…
“Senior Brother Su, I…” Before Ye Qingxue could finish her sentence, a sudden wave of dizziness overwhelmed her.
Her face turned pale, and her body lost all strength, causing her to collapse sideways uncontrollably.
“Careful!” Su Chen reacted swiftly, reaching out and catching Ye Qingxue in his arms.
A delicate fragrance filled his senses, refreshing and calming. The soft, warm body in his embrace made his heart waver slightly.
Ye Qingxue’s face turned as red as a ripe apple, so embarrassed that she didn’t dare to lift her head to meet his gaze.
Looking down, Su Chen noticed her face was deathly pale, her forehead covered in cold sweat—clear signs of excessive blood loss. His heart tensed immediately, and without hesitation, he scooped her up in his arms.
“Senior Brother Su…” Ye Qingxue gasped, instinctively trying to resist, but she quickly realized she had no strength left. She could only let Su Chen carry her.
What should she do?
She was actually being carried by Senior Brother Su!
Su Chen held her gently, feeling how soft and delicate she was. Her skin was as smooth as the finest jade, making it hard to let go.
Glancing down, he noticed her slightly disheveled robe, revealing a glimpse of her snow-white skin and delicate collarbone, adding an unexpected allure.
His heart skipped a beat, and he coughed lightly to regain his composure, but he didn’t look away.
“You’re injured,” Su Chen said.
“I’ll take you back.”
“That… there’s no need to trouble you, Senior Brother. I can…” Ye Qingxue tried to refuse, but before she could finish, Su Chen interrupted.
He flicked her forehead lightly.
“Don’t move. Be good.” His voice left no room for argument.
“Oh…” Ye Qingxue felt warmth spread through her heart. She lowered her head and obediently let Su Chen carry her.
In their past life, after Su Chen was betrayed and killed, Ye Qingxue had cried by his grave for three whole days and nights.
Later, she had gone alone to avenge him, only to meet her own tragic end.
Thinking about this, Su Chen felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.
Sigh, since someone else failed to cherish her, he would cherish her properly.
With that thought, he carried Ye Qingxue and turned into a streak of light, flying back to the Holy Land.
As Su Chen carried Ye Qingxue and swiftly returned to the outer disciple area, the entire place erupted in chaos.
“Ah!!!”
“Wow! Look, isn’t that Senior Brother Su?”
“What?! Senior Brother Su?”
“Are we seeing things? Senior Brother Su actually came here?”
“Huh!!!”
“He’s carrying a girl in his arms!”
“That looks like… Qingxue!”
“Wuwuwu… so jealous! She actually gets to be held by Senior Brother Su!”
The outer disciples were instantly thrown into a frenzy. Countless gazes locked onto Su Chen and Ye Qingxue, filled with envy, jealousy, and an insatiable thirst for gossip.
Could it be… Senior Brother Su Chen was no longer fawning over Liu Ruyan?
If that were the case… didn’t that mean they had a chance now?
“Senior Brother Su, please put me down,” Ye Qingxue’s face was burning with embarrassment. She buried her head in Su Chen’s chest, wishing she could disappear into the ground.
This was so humiliating!
So many people were watching!
And her face was burning up from sheer embarrassment.
Su Chen smiled faintly and gently set her down.
“Thank you, Senior Brother Su,” Ye Qingxue whispered, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s hum, her head still lowered.
“It was nothing,” Su Chen replied with a light smile.
“Senior Brother Su, I… I have something to do, so I’ll leave now!” Ye Qingxue didn’t dare to look at him any longer. She turned and fled, her heart racing.
Su Chen watched her retreating figure, his lips curving into an amused smile.
“Heh… this girl.”
“She’s much better than that Liu Ruyan.”
Meanwhile, in a secluded corner, Cai Kun’s gaze darkened as he watched Su Chen and Ye Qingxue. His chest tightened painfully, as if he had lost something important.
He had already set his sights on Ye Qingxue, planning to make his move soon.
But unexpectedly, Su Chen appeared out of nowhere and ruined everything.
Not only that, but their interaction had been so intimate.
“Hmph.”
“Su Chen…”
“One day, everything you have will be mine.”
Cai Kun clenched his fists, his heart filled with cold determination.
