"Release him!" she exclaimed, rushing forward.

Astral sneered, acknowledging her presence. A thin, protective spatial barrier materialized before his eyes, shielding him from Xiu Ying\'s alluring charm, which posed the greatest threat.

The barrier not only provided protection but also heightened his vision.

With this skill, Astral could utilize space to enhance his sight. Time seemed to slow down as he observed every minute detail unfolding before him.

It was one of the invaluable abilities that the real Astral had taught him, enabling him to survive countless brutal battles in the past.

Astral finally released his grip on Eren\'s wrist, clenching his fist tightly. He meticulously studied every movement Xiu Ying made, as if time had come to a crawl for him.

While most people would have been caught off guard by Xiu Ying\'s attack, Astral proved to be different. He gracefully evaded her strikes, leaving no room for even the slightest of her movements to escape his watchful gaze.

"It would have been more difficult if you had launched a long-range attack, given your abilities," Astral stated, appearing behind Xiu Ying.

"But it seems you didn\'t want to harm him. Nonetheless, it was a foolish decision to get close to me!"

Drawing upon his abilities, Astral manipulated space to his advantage. Another layer of spatial energy enveloped his fist, transforming it into an unstoppable force akin to a mountain.

With a powerful strike, Astral\'s fist collided with Xiu Ying\'s back, sealing her fate.

The impact of Astral\'s strike was felt through Xiu Ying\'s body.

Her body crashed against the window, shattering it into a million shards. She was sent flying out the window, coughing blood.

"Well, that woke me up."

Astral stood tall, a twisted smile playing on his lips.The spatial energy surrounding his fist dissipated, leaving behind a lingering aura of dominance.

For quite some time, Eren was in a daze as he saw Xiu Ying attacked. He rushed towards the window to check on her, only to be grabbed by his neck by Astral.

"I did not expect that someone would be courageous enough to betray Mist. But what shocked me more was that he made that succubus care about him?" Astral\'s Spirit said, only to be heard by the fake Astral.

"Should we test how far she can go to protect him then?" The fake Astral asked.

He was already informed that Xiu Ying was dangerous. If possible, he did not want to take any excess risk. If using Eren helped him kill Xiu Ying faster, it only meant he could return faster and take a nap.

....

"This is..." The Heroes from the Academy were waiting outside when they saw a woman fall out from the room Astral had entered.

The moment they saw the woman, all of them were shocked. They recognised this woman. They even looked scared of her.

"Stop looking around. Close your eyes and don\'t open it until you wear the contacts. Those who don\'t have contacts, keep your eyes closed. Because I will kill you without hesitation if you fall for her charm!"

Astral jumped outside. He landed right in front of Xiu Ying, who wiped the blood from the corner of her lips.

\'Why?! Why is this happening?!\'

Eren could not believe his eyes. How did he end up in this situation? Was this his fault that he came across that woman last night? Because of him, Xiu Ying was in danger?

"Don\'t worry about me! Kill him!" He yelled at Xiu Ying.

He understood that it was because of concern for him, she wasn\'t attacking Astral with a strong attack. She was worried that a stronger attack could kill him as well.

Eren did not care about being attacked. As long as they could hurt Astral, or even kill him, they had a chance to leave this place.

As for him, he still had two uses of the Pendant of Protection left! He could survive two life threatening attacks! She didn\'t have to worry about him.

"Do it!" Eren roared. "I promise you!" I will be fine!"

"Oh, are you so keen to die?" Astral tightened his grip around Eren\'s neck, hurting him.

He did not apply enough force to kill him, which also stopped the Pendant of Protection from activating.

"As for you..." Astral looked back at Xiu Ying, who was standing in silence, a trail of blood still visible around her lips.

"I don\'t understand why you care for him. But I am curious to see. Will you sacrifice your life to save him? Or will you risk his life to survive?"

He had a feeling that Xiu Ying was going to choose herself. There was no way she was going to give her life for another man.

Xiu Ying looked at Eren, and only smiled. Her voice appeared in Eren\'s head.

"This vacation was the best time of my life, as I got to spend it with you. But it seems this is as far as my happiness lasts."

Eren could only hear her mental transmission, but he could not use cultivation. He could not return a message that only she could hear.

"Stop this nonsense! Just trust me on this! I will be fine!" Eren was growing impatient, worried about Xiu Ying\'s safety.

Xiu Ying did not believe Eren on this. She thought he was just saying that to make her attack, because he wanted her to survive, even at the cost of his own life.

"Hmm? What am I seeing? The man wants to die for the woman, and the woman for the man? Is this what they call love?" Astral couldn\'t help but laugh, although beneath his laughter, there was anger.

He had experienced firsthand the futility of love when he was betrayed by the person he loved the most.

"You will soon realize how useless love is," he told Eren, already anticipating Xiu Ying\'s response.

He believed she would attack them after putting on a facade. Before ending her life, he wanted Eren to witness this scene, to understand what he had gone through.

Astral even wondered if he could manipulate Eren into killing her instead.

"I am your enemy. I killed your people. Let him go. He has nothing to do with this," Xiu Ying pleaded, falling to her knees, shocking Astral yet again.

Frustration tugged at Astral\'s lips. Was she still pretending? Did she truly believe he wouldn\'t kill her?

Eren, too, was taken aback. He had hoped she would retaliate, but instead, she was willing to sacrifice herself for his safety. He knew he couldn\'t let that happen. If things continued like this, she would die.

He had one chance to save her, one use of the Pendant of Strength remaining. And now, with Astral right beside him, it was the perfect opportunity.

He activated the Pendant of Strength!
