Even though she could not remember some things, Su Huiqing could still understand a few of them from the old man’s words. However, she did not want to say more at this moment. “What do you want to do? Let’s start now.”
The old man brought Su Huiqing into the array and took the lamp from her hands.
Su Huiqing stood beside the blue flame. This flame was very similar to the color of Yu Shijin’s lighter—she thought lightly.
At the same time, those people from the International Association finally flew to the entrance of the cave.
“Elder, Elder, there are still living people here!” The Dugu Family’s guards shouted in surprise when they saw the figures of the group of people covered in dust.
Elder Dugu immediately came forward. He recognized one of them and smiled in surprise. “Mr. Chi Yue, Mr. Chi Yue, wake up!”
Chi Yue finally woke up from his groggy state. When he opened his eyes, he was a little dazed. It took him a while to recover. “Elder Dugu, I… I’m still alive?”
“Yes, Mr. Chi Yue, you are still alive!” Elder Dugu was also very excited.
Initially, when he received the news from overseas, he felt heavy. However, seeing that Chi Yue was still fine, he heaved a long sigh of relief.
Chi Yue finally came to his senses. He looked at Apollo, Gu Li, and the rest who were waking up one after another. Only then did he confirm that he wasn’t dead.
At this moment, Apollo also started to think about it. He patted his head and suddenly laughed. “She must be out of her mind. That’s Su S. Back then, when she entered the international battlefield alone, not only did she save a hundred people, but she also saved the entire body of a soldier king! This explosive genius. If she wants to control an explosion, she’s even more accurate than a computer. So what if it’s a level ten weapon? It was built from her hands and designed by her. How can we die?!”
Chi Yue had also thought of this.
That’s right, that was Su Huiqing. The previous King of Mercenaries was a genius who could only give up his position. A King of Mercenaries who treated her teammates as her life. Su S, who had made the three giants of the International Association tremble the moment she appeared in the International Association. Miss Su, who had created the fifth most powerful force outside the four great overseas factions in a year. How could she let them die in her field of expertise?!
Chi Yue chuckled.
I should have known better than to underestimate her anywhere.
Gu Li and the rest also reacted. Previously, they didn’t know why Chi Yue and the other gaming gods obeyed Su Huiqing. Now, they finally understood this point.
Su Huiqing was the person they believed in the most.
After laughing, Chi Yue hurriedly picked up the communicator in his hand and tried to call Su Huiqing’s communicator. The call was immediately connected. His eyes lit up. “King, we are not dead. Where are you now? I will bring people over!”
Underground, Su Huiqing placed the receiver to her ear and listened to Chi Yue’s excited words. She smiled and said, “You guys did well. I can rest assured in the future. My coordinates…”
She took a look at Yu Shijin’s position and told him the coordinates.
Chi Yue replied happily. At this moment, he still didn’t understand what the words ‘I can rest assured in the future’ meant.
After hanging up, Su Huiqing walked into the fire. “Are you sure he will be fine?”
“That’s right.” The old man nodded.
Su Huiqing was relieved, but the next second, she frowned. This flame was different from ordinary flames. It didn’t burn people to ashes but seeped into their skin bit by bit. The cold flame directly seeped into their bones.
Only then did Su Huiqing realize that the pain she suffered in the laboratory back then was far less than one-tenth of what she felt now.
She was a person who could endure pain. However, her fingers were already trembling, and her consciousness was almost blurred.
“This is the Big Dipper’s punishment.” The old man couldn’t bear to see her like this. “Is there anything you want me to tell Yu Shijin?”
“What do you have to say…?” Under the engulfment of the blue fire, some sealed memories in Su Huiqing’s mind suddenly popped up. Her head hurt, but it couldn’t be compared to the pain in her body. The deepest memories sealed in her soul also appeared. When she closed her eyes, it was that red figure. The scenes were like silent movies. She finally knew when Yu Shijin had known her.
She also finally realized that Yu Shijin must have used all his self-control when he first saw her in Green City.
After a while, she said softly, “Then, please tell him that if possible, it would be better for the 16-year-old daughter of the Su Family not to meet the 18-year-old Yu Shijin.”
If that was the case, he would have known the old man long ago and wouldn’t have to endure the torture with her.
The old man pursed his lips. “Are… are you sure? Back then, you used your entire Su City in exchange for this person…”
“You can tell… I just can’t take it lying down. It took me so many years.” Su Huiqing sighed softly and retracted her gaze from Yu Shijin’s face. She tilted her head and thought for a while before finally saying, “Then… then tell him that I was fortunate enough to meet him in my lifetime. Thanks to him, I like… so many… years.”
She struggled to finish her sentence. Her consciousness was so blurry that she could no longer see clearly. She could only look in Yu Shijin’s direction instinctively.
Su Huiqing didn’t know how many times she had died.
However, this time, it was her greatest regret. She finally understood that she was not so willing to die. There were too many things that she missed.
