Chapter 276 To save or not to save?
Outside Yipinxuan.

Xu Hong activated the Immortality Map and looked around. He didn't find Duan Lingcang and Gu Yue hiding anymore, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Xu Ying looked over and said, "Brother Hong, what's wrong?"

Having grown up together and experienced so many crises together, he knows this cousin best. If he leaves with such an attitude, he must have discovered something.

After getting on the carriage, Xu Hong lowered his voice and said, "There was a master hiding in the room just now. I don't know if he is a friend or an enemy. Let's leave first!"

"Master? Hidden?"

Xu Ying was startled.

"No wonder you were in such a hurry to leave. You even refused to let me eat the fish meat..."

Chen Qingyuan sighed, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened, her face full of anxiety: "Sister Jiuer is still in there, she won't be in danger!"

After pondering for a while, Xu Hong said, "She is Ye Zhou's granddaughter, and she has the Cangchen Empire as her backer, so she shouldn't be in danger. On the contrary, we are not strong enough, and we don't have any background, so we'd better be careful... Let's go back to Chixiao Mountain as soon as possible. With Master here, even if the other party is strong, they shouldn't dare to mess around."

Chen Qingyuan frowned: "But... Sister Jiuer is very kind to me. I feel really bad for not saving her when I knew she was in danger..."

Xu Hong: "Ye Fengjiu's cultivation has reached the sixth level of longevity, and you are only at the third level. If she is no match for you, you will just be a useless person!"

Chen Qingyuan: "That's true... But I still can't do anything while watching this..."

Xu Hong: "First of all, I told her to leave and tried to persuade her several times, but she didn't listen! This was her own choice, and adults should be responsible for their own choices; secondly, I only made the elixir to save her life, and we just met yesterday, so we don't have a deep friendship. There's no need to put yourself in danger because of a stranger."

Chen Qingyuan nodded.

The other party said it well.

Encountering danger and saving people alone... Anyone who wants to be such a hero can be one, but we won’t be one!

Xu Hong continued, "Finally, if you can't bear to watch, then... close your eyes and think about it. Once you die, you won't be able to eat delicious food anymore..."

Chen Qingyuan slowly closed his eyes, and nodded seriously after a moment: "It's indeed much better, let's not save him, let's go back to Chixiao Mountain!"

"Ok!"

Xu Hong nodded in satisfaction, and then said: "Actually, it's not that we don't care at all... Stop the car!"

The carriage slowly stopped. Xu Hong took out a piece of paper and wrote something on it. He then took out a silver note and opened the curtain. He looked at the patrolling guards not far away and said, "My fellow men, please deliver this letter to Brother Ye Fengjiu of Luofeng Mountain. Whoever can deliver it will get the 1,000 taels of silver!"

"One thousand taels?"

The eyes of several guards lit up at the same time.

Even in the Central Royal City, one thousand taels of silver could buy a lot of things, which was difficult for some people to earn even after working for their entire lives.

"I will...make sure to complete the mission!"

A guard took the banknotes and papers and left in a hurry.

"All right!"

Xu Hong breathed a sigh of relief: "If there is real danger, it is more reliable to ask his brother and Ye Zhou, the Supreme Elder, to save them than for us to do it!"

Seeing him do this, Chen Qingyuan couldn't help but nod repeatedly. This was indeed the best way.

If they can't even save Ye Fenglou and Ye Zhou, then their presence will just be adding to the dish.

This guy is really smart. Chen Qingyuan sighed in her heart, and then looked over curiously: "If... I encounter the same situation as Sister Jiuer, will you come to save me?"

Hearing this, Xu Ying's eyes lit up and he looked at his cousin with ill intent.

This is obviously a fatal question...

She is your fiancée. If you don't save her, she will definitely be angry. But if you save her, she might die. It is indeed a headache to make the decision.

When my cousin was thinking about how to answer to satisfy the girl, he heard the boy not far away looking over with curiosity: "If... you knew that I would die if I came to save you, would you still let me save you?"

"This……"

Xu Ying was stunned.

High!

By taking the initiative, he not only resolved the crisis, but also made the other party fall into self-doubt.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Chen Qingyuan scratched his head and said, "I definitely won't let you come to rescue me! If we really encounter danger, it will be fine if one of us dies. It's not worth it if both of us die."

"right!"

Xu Hong smiled and nodded: "I think so too. If I encounter such a dangerous situation, I hope you will not act rashly. Run as far as you can. When you have cultivated yourself well, come back for revenge."

"Yeah!" Chen Qingyuan nodded.

……

In the private room of Yipinxuan, seeing this sudden appearance of the master who was about to attack her, Ye Fengjiu was immediately frightened and turned pale. She exerted all her strength to the extreme and rushed straight out.

She couldn't detect anything the other party could hide, and his cultivation was so high that it was unimaginable. It went without saying that she was no match for him. The only way for her to survive now was to escape.

Her movements were fast, but the opponent's strength was even faster, instantly covering her completely. The fierce mental power immediately penetrated into her mind. Before Ye Fengjiu could react, her delicate body fell straight to the ground and her breathing stopped.

"All right!"

The middle-aged man smiled with satisfaction.

The girl who was eating the dragon fish meat looked over in confusion: "Master, why kill her? It won't affect us at all."

The middle-aged man said, "I just sealed her power and spirit temporarily. She looks dead from the outside! The purpose is very simple. Since Xu Hong noticed that we were hiding nearby, he knew that leaving the girl alone would be dangerous. We just need to wait here and see if they will come back to rescue her."

The girl suddenly realized: "If you come back to save me, it means you are loyal and righteous, and you are worth cultivating. If you don't come back, I will have to think about it..."

The middle-aged man nodded: "That's right! Watching someone die without helping them, especially their companion, is the easiest way to test their character! If they come back, they will pass the test, and we can take Xu Ying and Chen Qingyuan away at the same time..."

"Ok!"

The girl put down her chopsticks and walked to the window in two steps: "Let me see if they will come back..."

The streets were crowded with people, and there was no sign of Xu Hong and the others. Of course, this did not pose a problem for the other party. His powerful spiritual sense spread out instantly, and in a moment he discovered the three people sitting in the carriage.

"How is it? Have they come back?"

The middle-aged man asked with a smile.

The girl smiled awkwardly: "It seems that they ran away in a carriage..."

“???” The middle-aged man was stunned and hurriedly released his spiritual sense. He only took a look and also stood there in a daze.

This is your companion, and I killed him just like that. Don’t you have any intention of saving him?

Is there any humanity left?
"He watched someone die without helping, he watched someone die without helping... Even if Xu Hong is a bad person, could it be that the other two are the same?" The middle-aged man could no longer hold back and looked angry.

"This one……"

After he finished scolding, the little girl couldn't help but look over and said, "Master, is it possible that... they don't know that Miss Ye Fengjiu was killed by you?"

"Uh……"

The middle-aged man's mouth twitched.

He took action after everyone had left. The other party didn't know that he had killed his companion, so naturally they wouldn't come to rescue him.

The middle-aged man grabbed the waiter who was serving the food in mid-air and brought him in front of him.

The waiter trembled all over: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, sir, it's none of my business, I didn't see anything..."

"Shut up!"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly and said, “Catch up with Xu Hong’s carriage now and tell them that Ye Fengjiu was killed by me and ask them to come and rescue her!”
"I?"

The waiter wanted to cry: "My cultivation is too low, how can I possibly catch up with the carriage..."

"Don't worry about that, I'll take you there!"

The middle-aged man made a swipe with one hand, and a crack immediately appeared in front of him. He threw the waiter in. The next moment, the waiter appeared in front of Xu Hong's carriage and fell to the ground.

The horse was suddenly frightened by the person who appeared and jumped up suddenly, stopping involuntarily.

"Oops!"

Xu Hong's face changed, and he looked outside in a hurry. Seeing that it was not the enemy but the waiter from before, he breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help asking, "How did you get here, and why so quickly?"

The waiter trembled and said, "Sir, the lady you were having dinner with just now has just been killed. Go and save her!"

"Killed?"

Xu Hong's pupils shrank.

I thought that Ye Fengjiu could escape danger as long as she revealed her identity, but I didn't expect that she would lose her life in just a few minutes.

"I see……"

Xu Hong waved his hand and closed the curtains.

"Yes!" Knowing that his calling function had ended, the waiter quickly made way and hurried back.

At this time, in the private room, after “hearing” the waiter’s explanation, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief: “Now that they know I’ve taken action, these guys should come back to rescue their companions!”

Before he finished speaking, the girl looked at him with a strange expression: "It doesn't seem so... They seem to be running faster..."

"???"

The middle-aged man was stunned again, and his consciousness spread out, looking at the carriage again. He saw that the carriage was indeed running faster than before, and the horse's butt was even smoking from being whipped...

"This……"

The middle-aged man was completely stunned.

His companion was killed, but instead of coming to rescue him, he ran away quickly... Is his character so bad?

Tide Pavilion would never accept such a person even if they killed him!
