That was exactly what I intended to do with the money, but this time...
"Chu Yu, give me the Merciful Sword."
Hua took the Minxi Sword from Chu Yu and flew upwards. Holding the sword in her hand, she didn't rush to fly. Once she was up there, Hua said seriously to the sword, "Little Xi, remember to catch me when I land."
After Hua finished speaking, and waited for the Mercy Sword to respond with a slight sway, she withdrew all her magic power and plummeted straight down...
As she plummeted until she was almost at the ground, Hua finally felt a clear wind lifting her up. She tried to use her divine power to grasp that mysterious force, but as soon as she used magic, the force that had been supporting her vanished completely!
Chu Yu and the others didn't know what had happened to Hua. They only saw her falling straight down. Fearing something might happen to her, Gu Xi and Wan Ke were about to fly up to catch her when Chu Yu stopped them. When Chu Yu first saw Hua falling straight down, his heart jumped.
But just as he was about to step forward, he noticed the Merciful Sword that had been following Hua down straight beside her, and Chu Yu guessed that Hua must have done it on purpose.
In other words, even if the Sword of Compassion was injured, it wouldn't be harmed. And the Sword of Compassion, separated from his bones and blood, would never stand idly by while he was in danger; it could only wait and ask him what was going on...
Just as Hua was about to land, the Merciful Sword steadily caught her, and Hua landed on the Merciful Sword in front of Chu Yu and the others.
"Liao Liao, what happened to you just now? How did you fall?" Before Hua could even stand up straight, Wan Ke hurriedly grabbed Hua's sleeve, checking her over as she asked.
"Sister Wanke, I'm fine. I just wanted to test if my guess was right." Hua explained with a smile to Wanke and Chu Yu, who were worried about her.
"Liao Liao, if this happens again, you must tell me in advance," Chu Yu said seriously to Hua. Although he quickly realized that Hua had done it on purpose, he couldn't deny that he was initially quite startled. What if something had happened to Liao Liao...
Chu Yu didn't even dare to think about it!
Hua realized that her behavior was indeed inappropriate, so she looked at him obediently and promised, "Okay, next time I will definitely tell you in advance what I am going to do, and I will never let you worry."
Chu Yu wouldn't hold a grudge against Hua over this matter, as long as she could truly understand.
Gu Xi watched their interaction, her eyes unreadable. This feeling was truly unsettling. They seemed to have an unspoken understanding—no, Gu Xi gave a self-deprecating laugh—it was more like an intimacy that no one could intrude upon...
"Huahua, did you discover anything just now?" Gu Xi interrupted their conversation, unable to help but ask Huahua what she had discovered by doing what she did.
He looked at everyone seriously and said, "I mentioned earlier that I felt a wind lifting me up while I was falling, and what I did just now was to confirm that."
Upon hearing Hua's words, Tu Er hurriedly asked, "And what was the result?"
"As a result, just as I withdrew all my magic and began to fall, almost to the ground..." Hua paused, gesturing to the distance, "...when I was less than ten meters away, I clearly felt a wind lifting me upwards! But when I tried to use my magic to investigate, all the force vanished..."
After hearing what Hua said, everyone exchanged glances; it was truly strange...
After pondering for a moment, Chu Yu said, "We used magic when we were falling. I'll try it first, and then you can try it too. Let's see what mysteries are hidden in this!"
After Chu Yu finished speaking, he flew out. This time, following Hua's instructions, he withdrew all his magical power when he reached mid-air and plummeted straight down. This time, Chu Yu clearly felt the upward lifting force that Hua had mentioned.
However, unlike Hua, Chu Yu did not use any magic power as he was about to land; he simply let his body continue to fall straight down...
Hua had been calmly watching Chu Yu, but when she saw that Chu Yu showed no sign of stopping, she suddenly panicked and ran towards the direction where Chu Yu was falling, trying with all her might to catch him.
However, Chu Yu was too close to the ground and fell too fast. Even though the little goddess had used all her strength, she couldn't catch him. Tears welled up in her eyes, but the terrible scene she had imagined did not happen.
Chu Yu didn't fall and get seriously injured; instead, he simply vanished...
"......?" Hua stood there, completely bewildered. What had just happened? Where was Chu Yu? Tears still clung to Hua's face; she looked utterly lost and pitiful.
Gu Xi and the others were also shocked to see this and rushed forward.
"Chu Yu just vanished into thin air like that?" Tu Er scratched the back of his head, also finding it strange. They had all just watched Chu Yu fall down.
Could it have been planted in the ground? Thinking this to herself, Tu Er stomped her foot as if to confirm.
Tu Er's behavior was so stupid that everyone couldn't bear to watch, and the atmosphere immediately relaxed a bit. However, it was also a fact that Chu Yu disappeared into thin air right under their noses. So, where did Chu Yu go?
Just as Hua was getting extremely anxious, she suddenly felt the message in her pocket getting hot. She quickly took it out and, sure enough, it was a message from Chu Yu. It only had three words written on it: "Look above!"
Hua Guai looked up and saw that Chu Yu was actually on the mountaintop!
When Hua Hua looked up, Gu Xi and the others also looked up with her and were greatly shocked to see Chu Yu suddenly appear on the mountaintop.
Xu Feng and his group of Qi Demons, who were not very composed, immediately became excited.
"He...he..."
"He...he actually went up there!"
"......"
"......"
The surrounding area immediately erupted in chaos.
Hua received the message from Chu Yu and looked up to see a small black dot. He couldn't wait to go find Chu Yu.
"Chu Yu has already gone up. Let's go up as soon as possible. Everyone, remember, you absolutely cannot use any magic power during the descent!"
"Don't worry, Liao Liao, we know!"
"Don't worry, it's spent!"
"Okay, thanks for reminding me, I'll remember!" He only dared to call her Liao Liao when Chu Yu wasn't around. When Chu Yu was with her, his gaze was simply...
Hua didn't notice anything different about Gu Xi's way of addressing her; she was now eager to get to Chu Yu's side...
