Chapter 2155 - 2252: Of Course I’m Still Here (Third Update)
Chapter 2155 - 2252: Of Course I’m Still Here (Third Update)
Sheng Wankong’s words had just been spoken.
The atmosphere inside the main hall was so strange that it was almost shattered.
Everyone fell into a death-like silence.
Especially Waan Qi, paradise one second, hell the next.
She almost fainted.
How... How is that possible?
Su Chen also knows Sword Rhyme, and it’s even at a higher rank than my Master’s, at Seventh Stage Middle?!
This...
Waan Qi almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Too terrifying.
Too shocking.
Too unbelievable.
Too humiliating.
Sikong Zhan, Hong Yicang, Wang Duan, and others were all trembling!
They had somewhat lost their composure.
Their faces twitched with disbelief.
They felt like going crazy!
A young man less than five hundred years old has mastered Seventh Stage Middle Sword Rhyme; who would believe it?!!!
Who would dare?
This is simply the most horrifying thing they have ever seen.
These old monsters, who have lived for tens of millions of years, have they spent their lives on dogs?!
"I, am not as good as you, not even close. It’s rightful that you look down on my Sword Rhyme." The next moment, Sheng Wankong spoke; though he was proud, he was also quite straightforward. Besides, he had deep respect for strong individuals.
His most prideful trait had been defeated by Su Chen.
He genuinely surrendered from the heart.
Moreover, thinking about it, Su Chen is less than five hundred years old.
Less than five hundred years!
What does that concept mean?
Sheng Wankong’s age is tens of thousands of times Su Chen’s age!
And he still boasts? In the presence of Su Chen, he’s not even worthy of being called an ant, right?
Su Chen only gave a slight nod, acknowledging Sheng Wankong; the man had decent character and was at least gracious in defeat.
"How could this be???" Waan Qi’s lips were bleeding; her own bite had drawn blood.
Such a blow!
Under Su Chen’s hand, defeated for the fourth time?
Humiliated for the fourth time.
Even when her master Sheng Wankong stepped in, it was still a miserable defeat to Su Chen.
Her own master, the one she was so proud of, wasn’t even as good as Sikong Yu’s Fighter. The critical point is that her master’s specialty lost to Su Chen too.
Waan Qi was going crazy with jealousy.
Why? Why? Why is it Sikong Yu who got Su Chen?
At this moment, Sikong Yu was in a trance.
It was like she was floating in an endless dream, unable to extricate herself.
She subconsciously pinched her arm.
The pain told her it was true; everything was true.
"Drink... drink..." After dozens of breaths, Wang Duan was the first to react, calling for drinks.
But the atmosphere became even more peculiar.
Who was still in the mood to drink?
The engagement banquet had been disrupted.
The apprenticeship banquet had also been disrupted.
Speaking of it, the Waan Family and Waan Qi were really tragic.
But who among the people present was focusing on that? All their attention was on Su Chen.
A young man less than five hundred years old, not even in the Divine Lord Realm.
Instantly defeating Hong Chou and Xing Wusheng, besting Sheng Wankong, mastering Seventh Stage Middle Sword Rhyme...
Which point isn’t a mind-blowing thought?!
Su Chen’s appearance directly defined what is called a genius?
An unparalleled genius.
Afterwards, many people approached to offer Su Chen a drink.
Including some leaders from the First-Class Forces in Jiuyou Domain.
Even Wang Duan and Hong Yicang came over to make peace with Su Chen.
Soon.
The banquet ended.
"Young Master Su, when you have time, come and visit the Waan Family often, Qi’er is also young, and young people should interact more." Wang Duan escorted Sikong Zhan, Su Chen, and Sikong Yu to the gate, speaking as they were about to leave.
Wang Duan genuinely hoped to see Su Chen and Waan Qi come together.
He even thought that if Waan Qi were with Su Chen, it would be a reach.
It would be the Waan Family reaching up to Su Chen.
Su Chen nodded slightly.
While Sikong Yu clung tightly to Su Chen’s arm, as if afraid that Su Chen would be snatched away.
"Sikong Yu, I didn’t lose to you, I lost to..." Waan Qi grudgingly bit her lip; she lost to Su Chen!!!
She has been rivaling Sikong Yu for so many years, and the four times she lost most miserably were all at Su Chen’s hands.
Sikong Yu merely chuckled pridefully without retorting.
Does losing to Su Chen make any difference from losing to oneself?
Waan Qi just self-comforts.
Seeing that Sikong Yu didn’t even bother acknowledging her, Waan Qi fiercely bit her lip again, casting an aggrieved glance at Su Chen.
An hour later.
Su Chen, Sikong Yu, and Sikong Zhan returned to Sikong House.
Su Chen’s reception improved once again.
"Tonight’s banquet was quite simple. I didn’t even use the Heavenly Treasure, Ancient City, Illusion Crystal, Zhan Cang Sword Array, and managed it." Su Chen muttered upon returning to his room.
Tonight, it was easily settled, using only a tenth, or even less of Su Chen’s strength.
Really dull.
He still had many, many hidden cards to play.
"After tonight, my standing in Sikong Yu’s heart should be exceedingly high, right? Tomorrow, asking her to take me to the Holy Mountain should be no problem?" Su Chen thought, still having some certainty.
The next day.
Early morning, Sikong Yu actively sought him.
In fact, last night, all night, Sikong Yu didn’t cultivate, nor did she sleep.
Always excited.
Yet, after the excitement, there’s apprehension.
Someone as unparalleled and monstrous as Su Chen, can she ever truly grasp him?
She knew, Su Chen’s so-called Fighter status had no binding force.
She even felt inferior.
Compared to Su Chen, she was far from him, a gap of tens of thousands of miles.
Even considering she was the eldest daughter of the Sikong House, it was still a vast distance.
She couldn’t help but look for Su Chen early in the morning, with an inexplicable longing, as if seeing Su Chen provided security, and she feared that Su Chen might suddenly disappear.
"Su Chen, you’re still here!" Seeing Su Chen, Sikong Yu was glad and breathed a sigh of relief. In her subconscious, it seemed Su Chen, such a peerless monster, should be like a Divine Dragon, seen only in flashes.
"Of course, I’m still here." Su Chen smiled, Sikong Yu, this lass now facing him seemed, less cold, less domineering, less assertive, but instead carried a hint of shyness and tenderness.
Has her personality changed?
"Su Chen, should we go out shopping today?" Sikong Yu looked into Su Chen’s eyes expectantly.
Shopping was just an excuse; she simply wanted to go out with Su Chen.
Let every Martial Cultivator in the Jiuyou Domain see, Su Chen is hers!!!
He belongs to Sikong Yu!
Su Chen naturally knew what Sikong Yu was thinking; a young girl’s temperament.
It was normal.
He thought it over and agreed.
Going to the Holy Mountain was not urgent.
He had to first cajole this young lady.
The whole morning.
Su Chen accompanied Sikong Yu along the three main streets of Jiuyou City.
All along, Sikong Yu clung tightly to Su Chen’s arm.
They appeared just like a couple.
Sikong Yu flaunted proudly, not at all discreet, seemingly wanting others to see her and Su Chen together.
Whenever someone saw her and recognized her, she’d raise her head, standing tall and proud.
At noon, the two ate a sumptuous meal at the Holy Fragrance Pavilion.
