C1056

Han Chen immediately turned around when he heard Xiao Yu'er's voice. He was surprised at first, but then he became angry and said coldly, Get out of here!

Without saying a word, Su Xiaoyu retreated, closing the door behind her, but she did not leave. Instead, she waited at the door.

Han Chen stood up on the shore, his stern face was full of seriousness, and his tall and refined body was drenched with water droplets. If one didn't speak of his age, it was likely that no one would be able to guess his age and would only take him to be a mature young man. He wrapped a long cloth around his head and quickly disappeared behind the screen. When he reappeared, he was already dressed and his expression was even more solemn than before.

He opened the door to find Su Xiaoyu standing outside with her back facing him.

In that instant, an unfathomable glint flashed past his eyes. However, it disappeared very quickly. He asked coldly, Why are you still here?

Su Xiao Yu turned around and kneeled down. Her attitude was sincere yet stubborn. She repeated her question from before. "Master, do you really not want me anymore?"

Han Chen didn't know what the old servant had said, but he could guess. He said coldly, Uncle Wen has made it clear to you. You can go.

A tinge of sadness appeared in Su Xiaoyu's eyes, but she quickly hid it away. She looked up at Han Chen and said seriously, "It was Master who wanted to take me in as a disciple. Now, Master doesn't want me anymore. You should have told me yourself!"

Han Chen said without hesitation, "You refused to listen to persuasion and insisted on practising a secret technique. You lost all of your true qi." You disappoint this sovereign. This sovereign has no patience to nurture a seventeen year old trash!

For this reason, Su Xiaoyu wholeheartedly accepted it.

She did not argue. Lowering her head, she asked, If I can't be your disciple, then can I be a servant? Even if I have to do all the work, I am willing to serve you.

Han Chen frowned. He wanted to reprimand Su Xiaoyu, but after looking at her for a long time, he only said in the end, "You don't have that duty."

Su Xiaoyu said earnestly, "All these years, thanks for your care, I have to repay you."

Han Chen's brows tightened again and again, as if he still had a lot of things to say. However, he still looked at her for a long time before he said, "No need, taking in a disciple is something my original body insisted on." You don't owe this sovereign anything, you can leave now.

Su Xiaoyu was still serious. If you treat me sincerely, then I will treat you well.

Han Chen was angry, and said in a stern voice, "Earlier you were this sovereign's disciple, this sovereign truly treated you with care!" Now that you are no longer this sovereign's disciple, to this sovereign, you are just a passerby. It no longer has anything to do with you.

Su Xiaoyu's delicate face turned even more serious. "But I didn't treat you sincerely earlier. I owe you." Also, in order to save me, you forced yourself out of seclusion and took my life. Those pills that Uncle Wen gave you just now couldn't be hidden from me. I owe you this too! I can be your disciple, but I have to repay you no matter what.

You! A hint of surprise appeared in Han Chen's anger. When the old servant, who had just arrived, heard this, he was greatly shocked. The old servant realized that he had misunderstood Su Xiao Yu. Su Xiao Yu seemed to have no thoughts that she shouldn't have used. She was just a weak person who would repay kindness with kindness.

The old servant originally couldn't figure out what Han Chen meant by disturbing him, but after hearing what Su Xiaoyu said, he became even more confused. Seeing that Han Chen was angry, he did not dare to make a sound and could only stand to the side.

Han Chen unconsciously took a deep breath, then said, "This sovereign will say it one last time, no need."

After he had finished speaking, he looked towards the old servant and ordered in a cold voice, "Send her out. In the future, don't allow her to enter the underground palace again!"

The old servant rushed forward, and Su Xiaoyu gestured for him to wait. She looked up at Han Chen and said seriously, "Okay, from now on, you and I are no longer master and disciple."

After she finished speaking, she kowtowed three times to Han Chen and left without looking back. Soon enough, she disappeared into the stone corridor. It was clear that Han Chen had driven her away. She had been driven away. However, her decisiveness did not make her look miserable or petty at all when she was driven away. Instead, it was as if she had dumped Han Chen.

Han Chen continued to look at her. His handsome face and ice-cold eyes did not reveal any reluctance or nostalgia. However, for a person like him, neither his face nor his eyes could reach his heart. He turned back into the house and, before closing the door, said coldly to the old servant: Go and make sure she leaves the palace. Ben didn't want to see her again.

With that, he closed the door.

This was extremely similar to his personality and his usual demeanor. The old servant was the most familiar with this place, but for some reason, he felt his heart clogged up. He couldn't tell what was going on. The old servant did not dare delay any longer and hurriedly went to chase after Su Xiao Yu.

When the old servant caught up to the entrance of the underground palace, he couldn't even see Su Xiaoyu anymore. However, the old servant was not at ease after learning the lesson from his mistake. He followed the path that led down the mountain. Finally, the old servant caught up to Su Xiaoyu on the mountainside. If not for Su Xiaoyu stopping to drink and rest, he might not have been able to catch up. The old servant truly did not expect Su Xiao Yu to leave so decisively and so quickly. He did not approach, but looked at her from a distance.

Soon enough, Su Xiaoyu spotted the old servant. She took a glance and pretended not to see him. She took a few sips of water, then got up and continued down the hill. The old servant followed. However, after a while …

Han Chen is still recovering, take good care of yourself when you get back, and don't follow me anymore!

The old servant smirked but did not say anything.

Su Xiaoyu laughed coldly, "Don't worry, I know his character. If he doesn't want to see me, I won't go and make him unhappy."

Only then did the old servant heave a sigh of relief and said, "Miss Yu, when you return to the imperial capital, send me a letter to report your safety." The old servant will pass on the message to the grand master.

Su Xiaoyu paused for a moment, then turned around and said in a serious tone, "Uncle Wen, I beg of you."

The old servant said, As long as this old servant can do it, this old servant will do his best. Just say it.

Su Xiaoyu said, "I still have something to take care of. I won't be returning to the capital for now." As for my master, you keep it a secret. When I get back, I'll explain.

Where are you going?

Su Xiaoyu said, "Private matter."

The old servant said earnestly, "Lady Yu, you left here with the grand master after all." Logically speaking, this old servant should be reporting to the empress now. This old servant can help you, but you have to tell this old servant where you are, otherwise, if something were to happen to you, this old servant will not be able to account for it.

Su Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, then approached him and whispered, I want to go to the Profound Sky Continent to get medicine. I know of a pill that can help him recover! Han Chen had reduced his rank because of me. I cannot accept this favor for nothing.

The old servant was anxious. Why are you so stubborn! The Sect Leader said that he forcefully accepted you as a disciple and that he saved you, so you two will pay for it! Moreover, that pill is not something that you can obtain!

Su Xiaoyu immediately shook her head. I'll definitely ask for it!

The old servant wanted to continue persuading him, but Su Xiaoyu replied, "This time he lost a full step. In a few years, he will definitely be in danger during the Mystic Skeleton Expert Ranking Competition!" You should know more than I do how many people want to kill him in the Profound Sky Continent!

The old servant was stunned. He really hadn't considered this. Su Xiaoyu no longer said anything as she turned around and left …
