“Young Master.” The elder lifted the black-robed man’s cloak and was instantly disgusted. “Everyone, walk further away. This person can’t be touched.”
With that, he looked at Chu Yi. “Master, did your skills improve?”
“It’s not me.” Upon hearing this, Chu Yi shook his head slowly and took a deep breath. “It should be someone else.”
“Not you?” The elders looked at each other. “If not you, who else?”
No one present surpassed the fifth level.
Everyone in the Chu Family narrowed their eyes. They glanced at Su Yun, the elders, the guards, and the rest. In the end, their gazes landed on Su Huiqing.
Su Huiqing was looking at that black-robed man with a pale face. She looked frightened and didn’t seem to be lying.
Seeing her like this, they narrowed their eyes in suspicion.
Su Huiqing lowered her head and thought to herself. Do you guys know how to act?
The elder saw Su Huiqing’s gaze and immediately shook his head. He said in a low voice, “It’s not her. Just now, I protected her and Miss Su and left. She was in a state of shock.”
Upon hearing the elder’s words, they all felt even more doubtful. Who else could it be?
“There should be other experts here.” The Chu Family elder looked around and cupped his hands. “Thank you for your help. If there’s anything in the future, please go to the Chu Family. Our Chu Family will definitely do our best to help.”
With that, Elder Chu suddenly looked at Su Yun. “Miss Su, did your uncle send guards to protect you secretly?”
They all knew that Su Yun had an extremely powerful backing. If there was really an expert secretly following her, it was very likely that whoever did so was one of them.
Upon hearing this, Su Yun also snapped out of her trance and shook her head. “No. Uncle only gave me a level six weapon.”
There was no need for Su Yun to lie. These people from the Chu Family only thought that they were lucky to meet an extremely powerful expert who liked to interfere.
The group didn’t stay long and walked out.
When they were about to reach the next mountain range, Su Huiqing suddenly sat on the ground. “I’m tired. I can’t walk.”
The people behind her immediately stopped.
The elder glanced at Su Huiqing. He was even more dissatisfied with her now, but he still spoke patiently, “Miss Su, it’s dangerous out here right now. We don’t know when those black-robed people will come again. It’s best to go down first.”
That was right.
However, Su Huiqing only glanced at him and pouted. She sat on the ground and took out the beef jerky from her bag. Her movements were very lazy. “I’m hungry. I’ll leave after eating. You guys leave first.”
“You!” The Chu Family elder felt that he was about to be angered to death by this lady in front of him.
He also stopped looking at her. She was sitting cross-legged on a rock with beef jerky on her lap. Although he didn’t want to say it, it looked very tempting.
“Let’s rest for ten minutes.” He glanced at Su Huiqing.
Su Yun was actually very tired. She was nervous and tired. She had long lost her strength.
“Want some?” Su Huiqing pinched a piece of beef jerky and looked at Su Yun.
Su Yun reached out her hand as if she was possessed. When she saw that she had eaten the remaining beef jerky in the bag, Su Yun could not help but start to reflect. What exactly caused this?
Su Huiqing looked at the empty bag and chuckled. She patted her pants and stood up. “Let’s go.”
Ten minutes had passed, and the group walked towards the mountain range.
When Chu Yi took a step, the entire mountain range collapsed and dust flew.
