But Su Yan's cultivation was still being suppressed.
It would take a month to release it.
Hua Qing showed no signs of impatience.
The two set out on the road on the third day she was able to walk.
Along the way out of the city, Hua Qing's gaze swept over Su Yan now and then.
After a long time, he smiled lightly and said,
"My benefactor follows me so obediently without even asking where we're headed. Are you not afraid I'll abduct you and sell you off?"
Su Yan blinked and looked at him with a retort,
"Would you?"
Hua Qing's smile deepened,
"My benefactor has saved me; how could I bear to lay a hand on you?"
His tender demeanor made it utterly unthinkable that the Hua Family massacre just days ago was by his hand.
A while later, Hua Qing began to explain proactively,
"We're going to Human-snake Village to find a Holy Artifact."
Su Yan nodded, not asking further.
She had heard most of this story from Xiao Hua.
