Chapter 236 - 236 229 It Seems Like There's a Sound

236: Chapter 229: It Seems Like There’s a Sound 236: Chapter 229: It Seems Like There’s a Sound The next moment.

Su Chen fiercely circulated his Mysterious Qi, holding Gu Yuan in one arm and using the force of the Du Xuan Wind to rapidly approach the cliff face while airborne.

It seemed, not too difficult.

However, in reality, if it were someone else, even those like Bu Shoufan, at the Peak of the Mysterious Qi Grandmaster Realm, could not achieve this.

Because, their Mysterious Qi quality wasn’t nearly as high as Su Chen’s.

Though he managed to do it, as Su Chen held Gu Yuan and moved closer to the cliff, both were still in free fall, dropping wildly with increasing speed.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”

The wind beside her ears had long become so piercingly loud it was indescribable; Gu Yuan felt as though her eardrums would burst, her delicate body trembling even more violently.

Subconsciously, she leaned closer into Su Chen’s arms, seemingly feeling safer this way.

After a few breaths.

“Bang!!!”

Amidst the resounding noise, Su Chen, holding Gu Yuan, finally made contact with the cliff face.

In a flash, one hand still holding Gu Yuan, he fiercely smashed the other into the cliff.

Clearly visible, the cliff was smashed into, creating a hole.

Upon making the hole, Su Chen grabbed its edge with his hand.

That moment.

The two abruptly stopped their downward fall.

From afar, it looked as if they were directly hanging on the cliff face.

Due to the huge inertia, Su Chen’s arm was covered in fresh blood, dripping vividly.

But, his face was expressionless, looking as if he felt no pain.

In his arms, Gu Yuan was already dumbfounded!!!

How is this possible?

How is this possible?

How is this possible?

What kind of terrifying strength is needed to create a hole in the cliff while holding another person, in free fall from nearly a thousand meters, and at such an extreme falling speed, to then grasp onto that hole?

Gu Yuan wasn’t foolish; she casually estimated that Su Chen must have needed at least a hundred thousand catties of pure strength to accomplish this feat.

Moreover, even with over a hundred thousand catties of pure strength, if another Martial Cultivator were in that instant, the terrifying force would directly rip their arm and limb completely apart.

It was like someone jumping off from the eighth or tenth floor, if someone were bold enough to catch the jumper with their hands, their arms would almost certainly break.

If that is the case from just an eighth or tenth-floor height, what about Su Chen?

He was holding her while falling a thousand meters, equivalent to at least three hundred floors!

As Gu Yuan’s mind trembled with fear, Su Chen did not ponder overmuch; he slightly let out a breath.

As long as their descending motion was halted, everything else could be dealt with.

“Hold onto me, I need both hands!” Suddenly, Su Chen spoke, at this moment, he was holding Gu Yuan with one arm and only had one hand free, making it extremely difficult.

“Okay…” Gu Yuan was momentarily stunned, then quickly wrapped her fair arms around Su Chen’s neck, however, beneath her veil, her pretty face plainly blushed three shades deeper.

Very bashful.

This was the first time she had been so close to a man of the opposite sex.

Her heart was racing very fast, Su Chen might think it was because she was scared of falling off the cliff, but in reality, a large part was due to her current close contact with Su Chen.

With both hands free now, Su Chen smiled, “All set!”

Speaking of which.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

His two hands, as if turned into mechanical claws, smashed into the cliff face half a meter at a time; with each blow, he created a pit on the smooth cliff face, enough for grasping and holding.

Su Chen was very fast!

He was merely smashing into the cliff face, and it was just a small pit, which was too easy for him.

Clearly visible, he was almost smashing three or four times per breath, carrying Gu Yuan as he moved upward one or two meters.

The key was that Su Chen didn’t seem to know fatigue at all, continuing for over a hundred breaths without a single rest.

Gu Yuan clung tightly to Su Chen’s neck, lying behind Su Chen, her delicate body pressed against him; she was shy, but more than that, she was shocked.

Too terrifying!!!

The strength Su Chen displayed had arguably surpassed the category of a Mysterious Qi Grandmaster.

Other than that, she knew that Second Protector Sun Yingyu could never achieve this.

——————

At that moment.

In front of the Scarlet Origin Cave and the Spiritual Source Cave.

Finally.

Sun Yingyu, Bu Shoufan, Qiao Yuan, Bu Teng, and Qiao Hun finally reacted.

“Damn it!” Sun Yingyu’s face was pale, devoid of any color.

Gu Yuan was the young miss of the Gu Family, a status too terrifying, and it was certain that Gu Yuan could not afford to have any accident, or Sun Yingyu herself might not end up well.

Gu Yuan, unlike Bu Shoufan and Qiao Hun, although their statuses were also significant, they were merely outstanding members of the young generation from the direct lineage of the Bu and Qiao Families.

What is a direct lineage?

The main branch of a family counts as the direct lineage, for example, the children of the family head’s brother, sister, etc., could also be called the direct lineage.

In the Bu and Qiao Families, within the younger generation, there were at least three to five others with similar status and position to Bu Teng and Qiao Hun.

But what about Gu Yuan?

She was the daughter of the head of the Gu Family!!!

Although Gu Yuan had an older biological brother, she wasn’t an only daughter.

But, she was still the daughter of the family head.

What’s more, Sun Yingyu was very aware of how much the Gu Family head cherished and loved his little daughter?

She couldn’t imagine, once the family head learned that Gu Yuan had died on Du Xuan Peak, and they might not even find her body, how angry and pained he would be?

Would he lose his mind altogether?

“It must have been the Du Xuan Wind, this wind…” Qiao Yuan’s face also looked terrible, although it was Gu Yuan who died, surely the Gu Family would also take their anger out on him, Bu Shoufan, and others, after all, out of the six who came, only one had died, and it was precisely Gu Yuan.

“……” As for Bu Shoufan, he didn’t speak, but also looked upset.

“How could this happen?” On one side, Bu Teng murmured to himself, it all happened so suddenly that he could barely accept it.

“That Su Chen, the moment Gu Yuan screamed, he jumped off the cliff, he must have been trying to save Gu Yuan!” Qiao Hun said, he was relatively calm.

Once Qiao Hun said this, Sun Yingyu, Bu Shoufan, and Qiao Yuan all looked enlightened for a moment, then shook their heads.

Bu Teng spoke up loudly, “Save her?

How could he save her?

Unless that kid is a god!!!

That kid was just seeking his own death!

It’s the first time I’ve heard of saving someone by jumping off a cliff!”

“Yeah!

How could he save?

If it were possible, I would have jumped down myself…” Sun Yingyu bitterly smiled and shook her head, let alone a kid in the Early Mysterious Qi Inner Strength Realm, even a Mysterious Qi Grandmaster at the Peak Phase or even someone stronger than himself wouldn’t stand a chance.

“But, if Su Chen didn’t have confidence, why would he jump down without hesitating?” Qiao Hun frowned slightly.

“His brain must be acting up!” Bu Teng snorted.

“Or say, this kid knew quite well that I wouldn’t let him go, he got scared, so he jumped to commit suicide.”

“Young master, say less!” Bu Shoufan warned, after all, Su Chen had jumped down to save Gu Yuan, even though it was ridiculous and completely suicidal, mocking him like this in front of Sun Yingyu was inappropriate.

“Now, what do we do?

Shall we continue exploring the Scarlet Origin Cave?” Qiao Hun sighed.

The rest were silent.

They were silent for who knows how long.

Suddenly.

“Did you hear that?

It sounds like there’s noise!” Bu Shoufan spoke abruptly, furrowing his brows slightly, becoming wary; in a place nearly five thousand meters near Du Xuan Peak, hearing strange noises made him extra cautious.
