She gently came to Su Yun’s side and asked curiously, “Su Yun, what are you doing?”
Upon hearing that, Su Yun explained unhurriedly, “Miss Chen, I thought about it before I slept last night. If we want to leave this place, this should be the only way.”
Su Yun waved the wooden saber in his hand. “Therefore, I need to do some training to increase my control over the wooden saber in my hand. This will allow the wooden saber in my hand to have greater power.” With that said, he stared at the distant cliff and pondered. “Perhaps with this, we have a chance of escaping.”
However, Su Yun’s words made Chen Jie even more confused. She followed Su Yun’s gaze in a daze and turned to look at the cliff. She really could not imagine it. The saber in Su Yun’s hand was ultimately made of wood. So what if it was powerful? What effect could it have on escaping?
Chen Jie clearly did not quite understand this. Therefore, she looked at Su Yun in confusion and kept replaying what Su Yun had just said.
Soon, Su Yun also noticed this scene. Then, he smiled and looked at Chen Jie. “Miss Chen, do you believe me?”
Chen Jie was momentarily unable to react to such a straightforward question from Su Yun. However, a few seconds later, she pursed her lips and nodded gently. “I believe you.”
Upon hearing Chen Jie’s answer, Su Yun quickly said, “In that case, Miss Chen, promise me not to dwell on this problem. Time is tight. We have to hurry. I don’t know if we can succeed. If there’s a chance to escape, you will understand.”
Looking at Su Yun’s determined gaze, Chen Jie nodded gently. However, she seemed to have thought of something and looked at Su Yun. “In that case, promise me something.” As she spoke, Chen Jie laughed. “Stop calling me Miss Chen. It sounds like I’m many years older than you. Just call me Chen Jie. I’ll only agree to you if you promise me.”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Su Yun immediately nodded. Although Chen Jie still did not understand what Su Yun was doing, she kept her promise to Su Yun and did not ask further.
Su Yun once again focused his attention on a target not far away. At this moment, he used his heart to sense every swing of the saber and the resistance brought about by the sound of the saber cutting through the air.
This power acted on Su Yun’s hand and was quickly converted into his own strength. At a certain moment, the two different forces seemed to have reached a special balance.
Su Yun kept repeating this very boring action, but in fact, the feeling every strike brought was a subtle change. Those who could not experience this feeling might never understand why Su Yun was so determined. He kept repeating seemingly meaningless actions, but he could actually last for so long. This was because others could not understand the fun and profundity.
“If you want the saber to retain its might, you need to nurture the saber’s qi.”
When Su Yun slashed down, he would frown and think about something. His muttering made it difficult for Chen Jie to hear the meaning. She watched Su Yun for a long time from afar, but she really could not figure out what Su Yun was doing.
Was the saber technique related to escaping? In fact, Chen Jie was not surprised. Perhaps only by doing something that others did not understand was the Su Yun in her impression. Only someone like him could complete a series of magnificent feats.
Due to her trust in Su Yun, Chen Jie did not dwell on this matter. Although she did not know what time it was, Chen Jie knew that Su Yun had not eaten since he woke up. She stood quietly at the side and took out the remaining packs of compressed biscuits from her bag.
According to the situation a few days ago, these compressed biscuits could only last for another three days at most. This made Chen Jie a little anxious. She also began to think about how to solve this problem in front of her. When her peripheral vision accidentally landed on the forest not far away, it quickly attracted Chen Jie’s attention.
As Su Yun had been immersed in training, he did not notice that Chen Jie had already walked towards the forest deep in the canyon. After some time, Su Yun finally ended his training while sweating profusely. Only then did he notice that Chen Jie had disappeared. “Miss…”
It turned out that Su Yun still wanted to habitually call him Miss Chen, but when he thought of what Chen Jie had said to him previously, he quickly changed his words. “Chen Jie, Chen Jie?”
Just as Su Yun was feeling a little worried, Chen Jie’s voice quickly came from the forest. “I’m here!”
Su Yun immediately looked in the direction of the voice and saw Chen Jie walking out of the forest deep in the canyon with many fruits that Su Yun had never seen before. Su Yun’s face was filled with anxiety. Chen Jie could not help but burst out laughing. She pushed her eyes up in a dignified manner and said, “Why are you in such a hurry? Would I get lost?”
Chen Jie was clearly not as arrogant as she was a few days ago. After all, the two of them had been together for so many days. Moreover, under such circumstances, they quickly closed the distance between them..
