Su Chen smiled calmly, "I suppose so."
He looked at Ye Lingxi and then asked, "Where are you planning to go?"
Ye Lingxi glanced at the surrounding area and said, "Let's do it here."
Yan Qingwu frowned, her tone slightly heavy, and said, "Are you sure? The Demon Domain is very dangerous. You've seen it yourself along the way; one wrong step and you could perish."
Ye Lingxi smiled and looked at Yan Qingwu, "It's precisely because this place is dangerous that I chose to train here."
Yan Qingwu pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, although it's a bit dangerous here, it can improve your combat experience and even temper your will."
Ye Lingxi nodded. "Yes, I believe that if I train here, my strength will improve dramatically in a short period of time."
Su Chen suddenly said, "Your talent for cultivation is not bad, and it's not difficult for you to advance your realm. But remember, don't try to break through just for the sake of breaking through. Only when your foundation is completely solid should you choose to break through. Otherwise, if you break through too quickly, it will easily affect your foundation."
Ye Lingxi nodded, her expression serious, and said, "I understand."
Su Chen continued, "Also, while training here is good, you must protect yourself. Only take action if you encounter something or someone you can handle. If you encounter something or someone you cannot handle, retreat when necessary and don't force yourself."
Ye Lingxi smiled slightly, a warm current flowing through her heart. She knew that Su Chen said so much because he was worried about her, and there were very few people who could make Su Chen worry!
Therefore, Ye Lingxi was very happy at this moment, which further strengthened her determination to cultivate diligently. Only by cultivating diligently could she stand in front of Su Chen to protect him. Even if she could not surpass Su Chen Su Chen the future and could only stand behind him, at least she would be closer to Su Chen Su Chen and would not have to rely on him to protect her as he does now.
Actually, it wouldn't be bad if she could always stand behind Su Chen. But her goal is to protect Su Chen Su Chen, so how could she keep hiding behind him?
But protecting Su Chen is no easy task.
She would need to put in several times the effort of an ordinary person, endure unimaginable hardships and costs, and spend a long time before there is even a sliver of a chance to accomplish this.
Her journey will be very difficult...
She had no idea how difficult her future path would be; perhaps only Su Chen knew. That's why Su Chen always told Ye Lingxi to give up on this goal and choose another, because she knew how difficult this goal was, almost impossible to achieve.
But when he saw Ye Lingxi devoting herself to this goal and cultivating relentlessly, he suddenly realized that Ye Lingxi's persistence was not merely out of impulse or unrealistic fantasy, but rather a unique way for her to express her love for him.
This love has nothing to do with whether Su Chen is invincible or whether the dangers of the outside world can really get close to him. It is a pure emotion driven from the depths of her soul, a desire for her to walk side by side with him and face all the unknowns of the future together.
Ye Lingxi's persistence and determination made Su Chen realize that she was an independent individual with strong Divine Power. He should respect her choices, encourage her, and help her when she encountered insurmountable obstacles, rather than trying to dissuade her from giving up.
Therefore, Su Chen did not dissuade Ye Lingxi from giving up this time, but instead reminded her to protect herself and pay attention to safety.
Su Chen stood rooted to the spot, his gaze fixed on Ye Lingxi's receding figure. Her back looked so slender, yet it exuded a stubborn strength.
Her clothes swayed gently in the breeze, like a lonely cloud drifting in the wind. Every step she took was resolute, as if a road unfolded before her, the end of which only she could see.
Who knows when we'll meet again after this parting?
A complex mix of emotions flickered in Su Chen's eyes. He stood like a statue, his gaze fixed on the direction where Ye Lingxi had disappeared, unable to look away for a long time.
Yan Qingwu, standing to the side, said softly, "She is a special girl."
Su Chen stared ahead, offering no response.
Yan Qingwu didn't mind, and continued, "In this world, many people choose to give up or back down when faced with someone too powerful to be overcome, but Lingxi is different. She knows you are already invincible, yet she still cultivates desperately so that she can stand by your side. This kind of courage and deep affection is not something everyone can possess."
At this point, Yan Qingwu paused slightly, as if pondering something. "She's like a tenacious fairy herb; no matter how harsh the surrounding environment, no matter how treacherous the mountains she faces, she strives to reach her goal. Her perseverance transcends simple liking; it's more like a steadfast pursuit of her beliefs."
She turned to look at Su Chen, "You mustn't let her deep affection go to waste."
Su Chen smiled calmly and said, "She's my sister, how could I let her down?"
His smile was like a gentle spring breeze, seemingly soft yet carrying a deep-seated certainty. His gaze remained fixed on the direction where Ye Lingxi had disappeared, his eyes now filled with affection and warmth.
Yan Qingwu raised an eyebrow slightly, a half-smile on her face, and said, "You really think of her as just a younger sister? The way that girl looks at you doesn't seem like the affection a younger sister has for her older brother."
Su Chen gently shook his head, a subtle, complex emotion flashing in his eyes. "I know what she's thinking."
Yan Qingwu said, "Then you..."
Su Chen said, "I will use my methods to make sure she doesn't have to work so hard and doesn't have to bear the pressure that she doesn't need to."
His voice was deep and steady, each word sounding like a weighty promise.
Seeing that Su Chen deliberately avoided mentioning his feelings for Ye Lingxi, Yan Qingwu said no more, but simply gave Su Chen a deep look.
Hu Xiaotian, nestled in Ye Lingxi's arms, looked up at Ye Lingxi, whose eyes were filled with tears, and said with heartache, "Actually, you really don't need to be like this. Master is so strong, she doesn't need you to protect her at all."
Ye Lingxi wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Then I don't want to be a burden forever."
Looking at Ye Lingxi's determined expression, Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but sigh inwardly, finally grinning, "Then I'll work hard with you!"
Ye Lingxi looked down at Hu Xiaotian, a smile appearing on her face, "Mmm! Thank you!"
Hu Xiaotian, "It's too formal of you to say such things to me."
Ye Lingxi chuckled, "Okay, I won't say it again next time."
Hu Xiaotian smiled. "That's more like it."
