High Martial Arts: Gains one point of health per second, sweeping across the heavens.

Chapter 771 Why did you start something with me and then abandon me?

Jiang Yue'er didn't speak, but she secretly clenched the boundary-breaking talisman behind her back.

Her senses were more acute than Xuan's; she felt an unprecedented sense of oppression emanating from this person.

That feeling only came when she was facing her master, the Heavenly Maiden Palace Master.

When Su Jie first appeared, his face was shrouded in a faint, chaotic mist, revealing only his deep eyes.

That was the natural overflow of the power of the Void Body of Destiny, which even the primordial spirit of a ninth-order supreme being could not penetrate.

Jiang Yue'er could only sense his aura and those eyes, but she could never see his face clearly.

Su Jie did not answer Xuan's question. His gaze swept over Jiang Yue'er as if she were an unsightly pebble on the roadside. He frowned slightly and then looked away.

That one glance seemed to deliberately express his dislike and dissatisfaction with her.

Jiang Yue'er's pupils contracted slightly; in her entire life, she had never been looked at with such eyes.

She was already wondering to herself, "Is this guy blind? Why is he giving me that look?" But it also seemed like he was faking it. What's going on?

If it weren't for the fact that this person gave her an extremely dangerous feeling, she would definitely have killed him to vent her anger.

Su Jie turned around, his back to her, facing Xuan, his tone as indifferent as if he were instructing a servant:

"Hey, I just killed a Five-Wheel Eternal who was trying to ambush you. I saved your lives, shouldn't you show some appreciation?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue'er's pupils suddenly contracted, and she subconsciously looked in the direction where Liu Xinyue was hiding.

There was no one there, and her heart sank.

"Who exactly are you?" Her voice was cold, but Su Jie could hear a hint of panic hidden beneath that coldness.

But she quickly regained her composure; she was already prepared to escape during the battle with Xuan.

Su Jie seemed to know her thoughts, and the pressure of a tenth-level primordial spirit descended silently, like an invisible mountain, tightly imprisoning Jiang Yue'er and Xuan's primordial spirits.

Both of their bodies froze simultaneously, unable to move even a finger.

Xuan's sword stopped in mid-air, and Jiang Yue'er's hands, which were behind her back, also froze in place.

Su Jie raised his hand and the boundary-breaking talisman flew out from Jiang Yue'er's palm and landed steadily in his hand.

He didn't even look at it before casually putting it into the system space.

Xuan's face was ashen, and he gritted his teeth, uttering each word slowly and deliberately: "What do you want?"

"Be loyal to me," Su Jie said.

Xuan was silent for a moment, then sneered, "Do you know who I am? The Dao Child of the Myriad Laws Holy Temple, a Ninth-Order Supreme Being. You want me to pledge allegiance to you? Are you worthy?"

Su Jie was not angry. He took out a yellowed talisman from the system space and gently rubbed it between his fingertips.

The talisman exuded an ancient and boundless aura, a kind of oppressive power that made the souls of all living beings present tremble.

Xuan's pupils suddenly contracted.

Su Jie stopped wasting words and directly aimed the talisman at Xuan, then gently pushed it.

The talisman transformed into a dark golden light and entered Xuan's brow.

Xuan's body trembled violently, his eyes rolled back, and he let out an uncontrollable roar.

His primordial spirit resisted, but under Su Jie's suppression of his primordial spirit, his struggles were like an ant trying to shake a tree.

Three breaths later, Xuan opened his eyes, and those eyes that had once burned with fighting spirit became empty and docile.

He knelt on one knee before Su Jie, lowered his head, and said in a hoarse but incredibly clear voice, "Master."

Su Jie nodded in satisfaction, ignored Xuan, turned around, and looked at Jiang Yue'er.

Her face was deathly pale, and she bit her lip tightly. The boundary-breaking talisman was gone, her escape route was gone, and her helpers were gone too.

For the first time, she experienced what despair truly meant.

But she was, after all, a Dao Child of the Heavenly Maiden Temple. Countless years of cultivation and countless trials between life and death had made her will far more resilient than she appeared.

She took a deep breath, suppressing the fear that surged from the depths of her soul, raised her head, looked directly at Su Jie, and her voice returned to its cold tone.

Have we met before?

Su Jie raised an eyebrow but remained silent.

Jiang Yue'er stared into his eyes and said, word by word:

"I don't remember us ever crossing paths. So why did you give me that look when we first met?"

Disgust? Disdain? I, Jiang Yue'er, have never met you before, so why are you looking at me like that?

Su Jie did not answer. He walked towards her, his steps slow, each step treading on her heartbeat.

Jiang Yue'er instinctively wanted to back away, but the pressure of a tenth-level primordial spirit still weighed on her, and she couldn't even move a finger.

Su Jie stopped in front of her, reached out, pinched her chin, and forced her to raise her head.

His fingers were cool, and his grip wasn't strong, yet it carried an undeniable force.

Jiang Yue'er's chin was taut, her eyes filled with humiliation and anger, but she did not look away.

Su Jie raised his other hand and gently removed her veil.

The veil slipped silently, revealing a face so exquisite it was almost unreal.

Her skin was like jade, and her features were like a painting, but at this moment, her clear, cold eyes were filled with anger and fear.

Su Jie stared at her face for a long time.

His gaze swept from her eyebrows and eyes to the bridge of her nose, from the bridge of her nose to her lips, and then back from her lips to her eyebrows and eyes.

His expression changed repeatedly, first with shock, as if he had seen something unbelievable;

Then came the deep affection, the tender gaze as if looking at a lover lost and found again;

Then came the pain; his brows furrowed, as if he were enduring some unspeakable torment.

Finally, there was disgust; his lips twitched slightly, and an undisguised look of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Yue'er was stunned by his sudden change of expression, and the fear in her heart was somewhat relieved. What's wrong with this person? Is he putting on a face-changing act for me?

Su Jie spoke, his voice hoarse, as if he had finally found an outlet after suppressing his emotions for a long time: "Jiang Rou'er, I've finally found you. My name is Su Baba. Have you forgotten me?"

The hazy mist on his face slowly dissipated, revealing a face that was unbelievably young.

He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, with distinct features, and a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth, carrying a hint of wickedness.

Jiang Yue'er's pupils suddenly contracted. She didn't recognize this face, and the name Su Baba sounded strange, but the name Jiang Rou'er awakened a memory in her mind.

Her heart tightened, and she opened her mouth as if to say, "I am not Jiang Rou'er," but she wasn't stupid enough to say it, so she swallowed it back down.

This man has mistaken her for someone else; he thinks she is Jiang Rou'er.

Because she and Jiang Rou'er are twin sisters, it is indeed difficult to tell them apart, and perhaps this is her only chance to survive.

"Why?" Su Jie's voice suddenly rose, filled with suppressed anger and grievance. "Why did you take advantage of me and then abandon me?"

Jiang Yue'er's mind went blank.

Su Jie's hand slid from her chin to her shoulder, clenching tightly as if grasping at a lifeline:

"What did you tell me back then? You said you wanted to go back to your sect and become powerful enough to decide your own future."

I told you I would face this with you, but you wouldn't tell me anything. All I know is your name.

You said you'd come back to find me and adventure with me in the Chaos Sea. I believed you, and I've been waiting for you in the Chaos Sea for so long!
