Fu Xuan murmured something softly, then felt his body suddenly lighten as he was lifted up.

Her eyes trembled slightly as she stared blankly at the swordsman who had picked her up.

Could it be that they're trying to lower my guard first, and then forcibly send me back?

"With your delicate little feet, by the time you get there, it'll be too late!"

Yu Chen glanced at her and teased her before moving.

"This seat..."

Just as Fu Xuan was about to speak, a strong gust of wind rushed towards her, making her hair dance wildly and her eyes almost unable to open.

But in the next instant, the wind inexplicably stopped, and the scenery before my eyes flashed by as quickly as a fast-forwarded PowerPoint presentation.

The wind had disappeared, and a warm current enveloped her.

Fu Xuan looked up at the face with a faint smile, and the words he had just spoken echoed in his mind.

So, what exactly was he trying to say?

The Sword Saint's speed was truly breathtaking, but Xiao Fuxuan, enveloped by his power, felt as if he were riding a star raft, arriving at another place in the blink of an eye.

The experience of sitting up was even better than that of the Star Chariot; the warm embrace and the dizzying atmosphere made her feel dazed.

"arrive."

Fu Xuan blinked as Yu Chen put her down. She turned to look at the horrific scene before her, which sent a chill down her spine.

Twisted, abundant evil creatures, soldiers fallen into demonic bodies, the secret teachings of the Medicine King, and the Cloud Cavalry clashed in a chaotic battle.

The deformed flesh and plant branches twisted together, growing outwards from the inhuman-like creature.

Limbs and blood were scattered everywhere, and blood stained the seemingly peaceful but actually turbulent land of Luofu.

Screams and howls mingled together, creating a bloody battlefield.

A hideous, twisted, and disgusting creature suddenly sprang out, letting out a chilling roar at the two of them. Fu Xuan frowned slightly, and Yu Chen stepped forward, blocking her path and stopping the eerie roar that sent shivers down their spines.

He gazed calmly at the hideous monster before him, a tranquility that was hard to fathom.

He had seen countless scenes far more horrific than this...

He stared at the soldiers who had fallen into demonic possession, and a ripple suddenly appeared in the depths of his dark pupils.

Is it ugly? Is it disgusting? Is it embarrassing?

This is simply the inevitable fate of the vast majority of immortal beings on the Immortal Ship.

It is also...their...and their own destiny, isn't it?

It was as if he was asking himself a question...

A long sword appeared in his hand at some point. Its blade was as white as snow, yet it seemed to be stained with endless blood, emanating a strong sense of bloodlust and killing intent.

That's the bloodlust and killing intent that can only be cultivated through the slaughter of countless lives.

It was a familiar touch; he hadn't picked up this sword in over a hundred years.

The last time I picked it up…

Dark, blood-soaked images filled with shouts of killing and the smell of blood flashed through his mind.

Yu Chen's brows were furrowed, and his face showed an indescribable complex expression.

His body seemed to suddenly shrink, and a powerful sense of oppression descended upon him.

The intense weariness that had been hidden and suppressed in my heart, along with the almost numb sorrow and dark emotions, surged out again like a tide.

"Ugh…"

A suffocating, oppressive sigh suddenly rang out.

Chapter 41 The Power of the Sword Saint

Fu Xuan raised his head, gazing at the back of that figure, which was as solid and reassuring as a mountain.

Just that sigh...

It was that same suppressed, pent-up emotion that drove her crazy, and her heart couldn't help but feel inexplicably anxious and uncomfortable.

The sudden appearance of the two naturally attracted more than just one abundant monster. The Cloud Cavalry, already struggling to cope, saw several monsters rushing towards them and were powerless to stop them.

How could a mere longsword possibly stop these guys?

As a group of roaring, terrifying monsters charged towards him, Fu Xuan's heart involuntarily tightened.

But she gritted her teeth and walked forward. As a diviner, although she was a civil official, she was not without fighting power.

That should be enough to barely manage...

She couldn't put her mind at ease about Yu Chen's health, especially after that sigh just now and the unsettling, oppressive aura emanating from him.

It's obvious that it hasn't recovered yet!

Yu Chen stared at the girl walking forward, his expression slightly stunned, then grabbed her hand and pulled her back forcefully.

"What are you doing! Didn't I tell you to stay by my side and behave yourself?!"

Fu Xuan was pulled into his arms by that tremendous force and fell onto him. She looked up and was about to say something when Yu Chen swung his arm, and an extremely powerful aura suddenly rose up. Close to her face, a sword light carrying a monstrous blood aura slashed towards the abundant creatures.

In an instant, the roaring monster was severed in two, and green and red blood splattered into the sky...

"Who gave you permission to wander around like that!"

A cold, angry voice rang out, and Fu Xuan trembled. She slowly raised her eyes to look at Yu Chen.

He was panting heavily, his face showing a displeasure never seen before. His two sword-like eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and a surge of anger climbed onto his face.

"I just…"

"What happened to what you promised me?!"

He abruptly interrupted Fu Xuan, his breathing becoming increasingly rapid, and his body even began to tremble uncontrollably.

Fu Xuan trembled again at the thunderous rebuke. She silently lowered her head and whispered, "I'm sorry..."

Yu Chen took a deep breath, trying to suppress the dizziness, but his chest was still heaving and his breathing was still rapid.

He placed his hand on Fu Xuan's shoulder, and unconsciously applied a little more pressure.

A pain shot through her shoulder, causing Fu Xuan, who was already downcast, to furrow her brow. She then quietly looked up at the spot.

Seeing Yu Chen's obviously strange expression, her heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but panic.

"Yu Chen? What's wrong?"

"fine…"

Yu Chen closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Suddenly, he noticed that the force in his hand was a little strange, so he quickly let go of her.

"Did I hurt you?"

His eyes trembled, his expression softened slightly, and he looked at her with some concern, asking.

His mind was already somewhat unsettled, and the sudden movement of the young girl startled him, causing him to panic and feel a surge of intense, inexplicable anxiety.

That feeling of something about to slip away before your eyes, and you being powerless to stop it.

It made him lose all control of his emotions.

This was followed by a violent physical reaction; the feeling of palpitations made him feel suffocated.

"what happened to you?"

Fu Xuan looked at him, her eyes filled with panic. This sudden, unsteady appearance must mean she had some old ailment she hadn't mentioned!

"I'm fine..." Yu Chen forced a slightly strained smile, glancing at her fair shoulder where a faint red mark remained, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

I really put my strength into it just now...

Fu Xuan, however, paid no attention to any of this and just looked at him anxiously, "Let's leave first and go to the Pill Refining Division. You look terrible!"

"No, we're already here, let's help them out of this predicament first... Besides, didn't you see? I'm very capable!"

Yu Chen straightened his back, swallowed hard, calmed himself down, and then gently put his arm around Fu Xuan's shoulder and pulled her into his arms.

"You're not allowed to run around like that again..."

Before Fu Xuan could respond, the longsword danced, and an astonishing sword light surged up again, instantly splattering blood across the sky from the Yunqi Army, which had been suppressing them so miserably.

With a large number of bountiful creatures falling, the Cloud Cavalry finally rose to prominence.

The remaining few could no longer suppress them and were eliminated one by one under their encirclement.

Yu Chen's sword vanished in his hand as particles of light.

It was only because he continued to exert his power under such unstable conditions that the things that had been accumulating for a long time were finally unleashed.

After swinging that sword, his arm fell limply to his side, and his upright body quietly went limp, collapsing towards Fu Xuan.

"Yu Chen?!"

"I... I'm a little exhausted. Could Fu Xuan help me up a bit?"

Yu Chen struggled to straighten himself, his eyelids feeling as heavy as if a thousand pounds of force were pressing down on them.
