Chapter 2352 Gone, Regret

The sudden turn of events left Xu Rongyue in a state of panic.

She kept a watchful eye on her surroundings, secretly activating her trump card for survival. She would activate it should her life be threatened.

The means to protect her life were left by her father. As long as she doesn't encounter a quasi-emperor or higher, escaping unscathed is not difficult.

Hey!

At this moment, Chen Qingyuan came from the depths of the starry sky and appeared in front of Xu Rongyue.

The moment Xu Rongyue saw Chen Qingyuan, she was visibly stunned, extremely doubting that she was hallucinating. After looking at him a few more times, she was certain that the person in front of her was not an illusion. Her expression quickly changed from blank to shocked, and then she revealed an undisguised joy.

Xu Rongyue's emotions were churning violently, and could not be described in a few words.

"Your...Your Excellency!"

A few breaths later, Xu Rongyue came to her senses and quickly stepped forward, bowing respectfully.

Chen Qingyuan helped Xu Rongyue up from a distance, telling her not to be so polite: "Little princess, it's been so many years, but you're still the same as before!"

The youngest daughter of the King of Tianyong, she is a genuine princess.

Even in today's era, King Tianyong still stands at a high position.

Unfortunately, many years ago, when King Tianyong was in seclusion to break through to the Divine Bridge, the Divine Bridge collapsed, causing chaos and resulting in his failure to advance, stopping at the peak of the eighth step of the Divine Bridge.

King Tianyong was truly unlucky. If he had broken through earlier, he would most likely already be a quasi-emperor. It's a pity that he broke through at the exact time of the collapse of the divine bridge, which is truly regrettable.

Getting back to the point, Xu Rongyue listened to the familiar voice, her tender body trembled slightly, and her eyes welled up with tears.

It's really him!

He was actually here, right next to me.

Xu Rongyue tried to calm herself down, but it was difficult. Her voice was clear and melodious, but trembled slightly: "Thank you for saving me, Your Excellency."

"Even if I don't intervene, you still have a way to escape."

Chen Qingyuan could tell that Xu Rongyue hadn't shown any panic when she was surrounded and attacked, indicating that she must have a backup plan.

After all, they are old acquaintances, and there is a certain relationship involved. In order to prevent any accidents from happening, we cannot stand idly by.

"Your Excellency, why are you here?"

Xu Rongyue did not deny it, but changed the subject.

Chen Qingyuan truthfully replied, "Just passing by."

Xu Rongyue seemed to want to say something, but when the words reached her lips, she didn't know how to express them, and finally only managed to utter a single word: "Oh."

What caused the conflict?

Chen Qingyuan was too lazy to use his soul-searching technique on the people around him, so he just asked a question casually.

"I obtained a top-grade spiritual vein and a lot of spiritual herbs here, which has attracted the covetousness of others."

Xu Rongyue answered without hesitation.

The current order in China is far less stable than it used to be.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth cannot be absorbed into the body; cultivators in the world can only cultivate by using spirit stones. Therefore, let alone a high-grade spiritual vein, even a low-grade spiritual vein will attract many people to fight for it.

"I see."

Chen Qingyuan did not doubt Xu Rongyue's words, and besides, it was easy to see whether Xu Rongyue was lying or not.

I offered my help and we chatted briefly.

That's all, I should go now.

Before leaving, Chen Qingyuan gave the order: "You are in charge of the lives and deaths of these people."

After saying that, he turned around and took a step.

Swish!

In the blink of an eye, Chen Qingyuan disappeared into the depths of the starry sky, coming and going in a hurry, as elusive as an immortal.

It wasn't until Chen Qingyuan left that Xu Rongyue belatedly realized what was happening. Her body subconsciously moved a step in the direction he had left, her eyes glistening with tears, her lips slightly parted, her face filled with reluctance.

he's gone.

Like waking from a dream, it is beyond reach.

Gazing into the distance, Xu Rongyue couldn't help but recall the scene of her first meeting with Chen Qingyuan. At that time, Chen Qingyuan had not yet awakened his innate wisdom and was still struggling in the mire, constantly climbing upwards, already showing extraordinary talent.

Upon their first meeting, Xu Rongyue developed a strong interest in Chen Qingyuan.

The more you understand, the deeper you get involved.

Then, Chen Qingyuan made a name for himself, shaking the myriad realms and becoming the most dazzling star in the vast sea of ​​stars.

After some time, it was rumored that Chen Qingyuan was the reincarnation of an ancient war god, who was conquering the Divine Bridge and suppressing the Emperor's Corpse.

Xu Rongyue had heard many legendary stories about Chen Qingyuan, filling her heart so much that there was no room for anyone else.

Long ago, King Tianyong told Xu Rongyue, "Girl, he and you are not destined for each other, give up!"

If Xu Rongyue were someone else, the King of Tianyong would have to find a way to bring them together, or even use forceful means to bring them back.

Knowing there was no future, Xu Rongyue gave her father an answer: "Dad, I knew the outcome from the beginning. I'm not that fragile, don't worry!"

Even so, Xu Rongyue couldn't help but tear up when she saw the person she had missed for many years suddenly appear and then leave in an instant.

However, she quickly adjusted her mindset, and on the surface, there was no sign of any problem.

When Xu Rongyue occasionally heard news about Chen Qingyuan and the Red-Clad Empress, she felt both envy and sincere blessings.

Through lifetimes, she remains unchanged.

That is why so many exceptionally beautiful women develop special feelings for Chen Qingyuan.

While admiration for strength is one aspect, a more important factor is fidelity in relationships.

In this cruel world, unwavering love until death is especially rare and precious.

If Chen Qingyuan were a fickle person, Xu Rongyue wouldn't be so deeply involved; in time, the feelings would dissipate.

"I saw him briefly today, and it was a good day."

Xu Rongyue comforted herself and smiled faintly.

She slowly sealed this feeling deep in her heart, raised her long sword, aimed it at the dozen or so cultivators who were frozen in place around her, and swung it from a distance.

Zheng!

The longsword hummed softly, flashed with cold light, and more than ten people lost their lives in an instant.

They died without knowing what had happened, and without experiencing any pain.

Since these people were going to surround and kill her, Xu Rongyue had no reason to show mercy.

To be merciful to the enemy is an extremely foolish act.

Having dealt with the enemy, Xu Rongyue embarked on a new journey.

She uncontrollably fantasized about where and where she would meet Chen Qingyuan again someday in the future.

What should we say when we say goodbye?

Your Excellency, it's been a long time.

Is there anything else to say?

As she pondered this question, her thoughts drifted further and further away, even conjuring up an image in her mind of herself growing old and losing her beauty, while Chen Qingyuan remained as charming as ever.

Life is full of regrets.

She pursed her lips, forcing a smile to conceal the loneliness and sorrow in her heart. Her gaze was firm as she strode forward.

There are many women like her.

For example: Song Ningyan of Dao Yi Academy, Ji Lingyan, the ninth princess of the Phoenix Clan, Mo Lianqing, who is naturally charming, and Miao Wei, the proprietress buried in a bamboo forest somewhere in the mortal world.

It wasn't that Chen Qingyuan was a womanizer, but rather that he possessed excessive charm.

Three thousand weak water, only take one scoop.

No matter how many setbacks or how many people one encounters on life's journey, in the end, there is only one true confidante who can stay by Chen Qingyuan's side.
