Chapter 1344: Chapter 1344 The Dispersed Dao Heart

"So I told you not to worry so much, Su Chengyu is not as impulsive as you think."

Mo Ningchen spoke softly to You Ming.

You Ming said coldly, "If we hadn’t taken care of the guards in the castle ahead of time, he would have had trouble avoiding conflict with the people inside."

Mo Ningchen shook his head: "Firstly, Su Chengyu noticed me, and he knew that I would secretly help him deal with those people inside the castle. Secondly, once the Duke of Night Raven made a move on Su Chengyu, it meant she was breaking the rules. After all, Su Chengyu was giving the price as she stated, and essentially there was no difference from releasing Fang Qing; his goal was also achieved."

"But..."

"There are no buts. The outcome is everything. How can you ensure that there were no other circumstances, that Su Chengyu had no other fallback plans?"

With that, Mo Ningchen completely silenced You Ming, who said nothing more and changed back into her original clothes, planning to return to the castle.

"Do you really plan to buy that member of the Nether Clan?"

Mo Ningchen looked at You Ming as she prepared to leave.

"Don’t worry, if it’s not necessary, I’ll take him to Xia Country. Right now, this guy is probably the only clue."

Mo Ningchen said nothing more and once again melted into the shadows.

He said he wanted to casually stroll through the underground black market, but in reality, he didn’t go anywhere else. After finding You Ming, he had been observing Su Chengyu’s actions.

This trip to the Bei Luo Empire, others might not know, but Mo Ningchen knew that for Su Chengyu, this trip was also a test.

Whether he could truly become the Demon Slayer Saint, still depended on the methods Su Chengyu used in his actions.

As for today’s events, Su Chengyu handled them quite well; even Mo Ningchen couldn’t confidently say he could have done better, but the problem was that from the beginning, Su Chengyu shouldn’t have acted this way.

Even if that woman was someone he absolutely had to save, Mo Ningchen would choose a more secure method, rather than such a reckless one.

From this perspective, Su Chengyu’s assessment as a Saint Envoy is clearly a failure.

Suddenly thinking of something, Mo Ningchen smiled: "Perhaps it is exactly this kind of person who could become the Path-Protector of the Cold Moon Envoy in the Nascent Soul Realm, right?"

On the other hand, Su Chengyu, who had taken Fang Qing and left the castle, was naturally aware of some tails behind him. He led these people into an alley and suddenly stopped then spoke coldly.

"If anyone wants to test my strength, act now. Regardless of winning or losing, I can spare your lives to report back."

Su Chengyu’s words went unanswered, which made him impatient, and he spoke again: "I don’t want to repeat myself. Anyone still following me after I exit this alley, I will not leave alive."

He continued walking, and just at the last moment as Su Chengyu was about to leave the alley, several dark figures burst from the shadows and charged directly at Su Chengyu.

The Dragon Slayer Sword descended from the sky, and Su Chengyu, without even turning around, directly blocked the two assailants behind him.

Gazing straight ahead, Su Chengyu narrowed his eyes and instantly raised his hand, parrying seven swiftly flying needles.

Seeing the familiar needles, Su Chengyu frowned.

The Illusory Poison, he hadn’t been in the Bei Luo Empire for long, and yet this was already the second time he had encountered this thing.

"Returning them to you!"

He spoke coldly and flung the seven poison needles right back. The opponents didn’t seem like cultivators, and the Illusory Poison probably wouldn’t affect them specially, but with Su Chengyu’s Mana-enhanced force, the sheer power was certainly not something ordinary people could withstand.

These mediocre scouts were not elite fighters, and naturally had no power to fight back against Su Chengyu’s retaliation.

"Scram."

With those cold words, Su Chengyu walked out of the alley with Fang Qing, but just as they stepped out, a sharp knife suddenly pierced towards them, targeting not Su Chengyu but Fang Qing in his arms.

Terrified, Fang Qing instantly lunged toward Su Chengyu. With a swift motion, he blocked the sharp knife with his palm.

A dull sound emanated from his palm, as if catching it on solid rock, entirely blocked by the center of his palm.

Su Chengyu’s eyes flashed with murderous intent as he coldly said, "I told you, your probes only exist in the alleys."

Bang!

Mana surged from the dagger directly into the body of the burly fighter, sending this platinum fighter, with strength comparable to Golden Core, crashing into a nearby wall.

His gaze swept around, sweeping over the few scouts still spying on him, and only after those locked auras on him completely dissipated did Su Chengyu return to the main path.

"Are you really... Su Chengyu?"

Fang Qing asked, still shaken.

The man in front of her looked so similar to the one in her memories, yet the change in demeanor made her unsure of her own answer, since this seemed too different from the Su Chengyu of the past.

Moreover, the Su Chengyu who once needed the protection of the Fang Family now seemed to disregard even the dukes of the Bei Luo Empire.

Fang Qing wasn’t aware of many things in this world, but the status of a duke was already high above common folk to begin with.

Not to mention someone daring to openly engage in human trafficking; that couldn’t possibly be an ordinary person.

And this man in front of her...

"I’m sorry, I’m late."

His words carried remorse, and the moment Su Chengyu spoke, he first expressed his apology.

That sentence completely assured Fang Qing of the man’s identity in front of her. Her tightly strained heartstrings completely relaxed as she buried her head in Su Chengyu’s chest, her fists pounding heavily against him.

"Bastard... you bastard..."

Deep down, Fang Qing knew her predicament had nothing to do with Su Chengyu, but in front of this man, she still couldn’t help but blame him like this.

It seemed like Su Chengyu coming to save her was something taken for granted, but he had taken far too long to do this right thing.

"I’m sorry, are you alright?"

Fang Qing shook her head without speaking.

Seeing this, Su Chengyu found himself at a loss for words.

He had already checked her over; although the Duke of Night Raven saw these slaves as merchandise, he indeed had his own code of conduct and hadn’t done anything to them.

But becoming slaves, being clearly priced and auctioned off as living goods, whether or not this affected Fang Qing psychologically was something Su Chengyu had no definite answer to.

Now, all Su Chengyu could sense was that Fang Qing’s Dao Heart was nearly shattered. Despite facing no external forces, her condition was much worse than Su Zi’s.

After taking Fang Qing to his room and laying her down, Su Chengyu intended to rest for a while before heading to Mo Ningchen’s house.

However, just as Su Chengyu turned around, Fang Qing immediately clung to him from behind.

"Don’t go! Don’t leave me alone!"

Her soft words made Su Chengyu almost unable to believe that this was something the once tough Fang Qing would say.

He bit his lower lip, holding Fang Qing’s hand and said, "Okay, I won’t leave. I’ll stay here with you."
