Chapter 1117: Chapter 1117: To Save or Not to Save, You Decide
"Shut up!"
"What’s so good about him? You’ve already been with me, yet you’re still thinking about that useless loser."
"When we first entered the city, I clearly saw you flirting with him. Are you trying to rekindle old feelings?"
"Now that loser has regained his strength and teamed up with Lin Chen, are you thinking of throwing yourself at him? You cheap woman!"
As soon as Su Dongyu heard Su Qi repeatedly calling him "Su Yun Young Master," he was furious beyond belief.
The harm Lin Chen and Su Yun caused him not only made his cultivation plummet but also disgraced him in the Su Family.
Therefore, he harbored deep hatred towards Lin Chen and Su Yun.
At this moment, Su Qi mentioning Su Yun in front of him felt like a massive insult.
Su Dongyu glared viciously at Su Qi, spewing curses, then grabbed her hair and furiously shouted.
The hatred and anger he held for Lin Chen and Su Yun erupted in this moment, and he unleashed all his fury on Su Qi.
"Smack—"
Su Dongyu slapped Su Qi hard across the face; she spun several times before being flung to the ground, her cheek bright red and swollen beyond recognition.
Su Qi clutched her cheek, her tears rolling down uncontrollably. She looked at Su Dongyu, filled with fear and hatred.
She also felt regret; why had she abandoned Su Yun five years ago to throw herself at this bastard in front of her?
"Who else wants to go follow Su Yun?"
As he spoke, Su Dongyu kicked Su Qi a few more times. Although she protected her head with her hands, the strong force still caused her body to echo with the sound of bones breaking.
Soon after, Su Dongyu kicked her into unconsciousness.
As Su Dongyu continued to kick, his gaze swept over the other four Su Family disciples. The crowd felt a chill, stepped back two paces, and lowered their heads.
Though they said nothing, looking at the unconscious Su Qi, they secretly wondered if following Su Dongyu was really the right choice.
Today it was Su Qi’s misfortune; tomorrow it might be theirs. Clearly, they hadn’t done anything wrong; Su Qi’s words earlier were just trying to protect everyone, to avoid being put in danger again.
After all, they had already witnessed the strength of the Water Bandits—something they could not handle. What’s needed now by the Su Family is to put aside past grievances and unite as one.
At this moment, Su He and Su Niu also had solemn expressions, realizing they might have truly been wrong, that they should have given up on faction battles sooner, like Su Xiao, and stood by Su Yun. But for now, they dared not show it.
Afterwards, Su He, Su Niu, and the other two Su Family disciples took a deep look at the unconscious, half-dead Su Qi and then followed Su Dongyu and left.
As Su Family disciples, they dared not question Su Qi’s life or death.
Shortly thereafter, Lin Chen and Su Yun’s group arrived in the area where they had previously been.
At this moment, this body of water had begun to show islands, and buildings could be faintly seen in the distance, indicating that they were approaching the central area of Xindi Water City.
The group did not fly but walked on the water’s surface, relying on their spiritual power.
Suddenly, Lin Chen stopped, glancing toward one direction.
Though the central part of Xindi Water City had already revealed land and houses, the white mist in the space had not completely dissipated, still blocking the detection by divine sense.
However, Lin Chen’s divine soul was stronger and sharper than most, and he immediately sensed the scent of blood and an unusual force in the air.
"Boss, why did you stop? Did you notice something?" Su Yun asked Lin Chen.
"There seems to be some commotion over there—someone’s injured. Let’s go take a look," Lin Chen said.
Then the group walked towards Su Qi’s direction.
At this time, Su Qi was still curled up; her original small boat had been smashed, and she was submerged at the lake bed, emanating a faint spiritual light.
Luckily, she still had spiritual power, which prevented her from drowning.
Moreover, the water was not deep, allowing Su Yun and the others to quickly discover the traces of fighting upon arriving in the area and promptly find Su Qi.
Su Lie volunteered, wrapped himself in spiritual power, and dove to the bottom to rescue Su Qi.
After bringing her up, everyone recognized her as Su Qi.
By now, Su Qi was drenched, her fiery figure vividly revealed, but her cheeks were exceptionally swollen, with her body covered in marks from beatings, looking very pitiful.
If she weren’t in the Nirvana Realm, such severe injuries would have likely killed her. Even so, she was hanging by a thread.
"Sister Su Qi."
Su Xiao looked at Su Qi, feeling touched, despite their strained relationship due to both having competed for Su Yun’s attention five years ago to gain resources for their respective branches.
Later, Su Yun became despondent, and Su Dongyu’s status in the clan rose, and they both began trying to curry favor with Su Dongyu.
However, they did not hold deep grudges against each other; after all, they were both part of the Su Family.
Su Yun glanced at Su Qi, feeling no resentment towards her. Although she sometimes made things difficult for him, it was never excessive.
Besides, their branch naturally sided with Su Dongyu; given the circumstances, Su Yun wouldn’t blame her.
"The attack was really cruel; half of her bones were broken. To treat our Su Family disciples with such malice."
Su Lie looked at Su Qi, feeling some anger too. Although Su Qi was not from their branch, she was still a part of the Su Family—they couldn’t tolerate their members being treated like this.
"Should we save her?"
Lin Chen looked at Su Yun and asked indifferently.
The life and death of Su Family members didn’t matter much to Lin Chen. But considering Su Yun is still the Su Family’s Young Master, caring about clan members is his duty.
Since Su Yun had now become Lin Chen’s follower, Lin Chen would naturally consider his situation. For him, saving Su Qi wasn’t particularly difficult.
"If Boss can help, please save her. Although she’s not from my branch, she’s still a Su Family member, and I hold no real grudge against her."
Su Yun looked at Lin Chen, earnestly requesting.
