Chapter 22 - Zhou Xiaohong

Seeing the woman greet him, Su Wuchen replied with a calm expression, "Who are you?"

The woman smiled faintly. "Hello. Let me introduce myself. I'm Zhou Xiaohong, ranked fifth on the Outer Sect's combat strength list. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Su Wuchen was taken aback.

He hadn't expected the woman before him to be ranked fifth on the Outer Sect's combat strength list.

Moreover, he couldn't discern her cultivation level.

However, he could sense that her cultivation was at least at the fifth level of the Mortal Martial Realm.

"You don't need to be so guarded. Rest assured, I have no ill intentions towards you."

Seeing that Su Wuchen hadn't spoken, Zhou Xiaohong didn't get angry, but instead, a warm smile remained on her face.

Seeing this, Su Wuchen confirmed that the other party indeed had no ill intentions.

He said, "I wonder, what brings Senior Sister Xiaohong to seek me out?"

"Senior Sister Xiaohong?"

Zhou Xiaohong immediately became displeased.

She put her hands on her hips, looking at Su Wuchen with displeasure. "This young lady is only fifteen years old, probably younger than you. Are you sure you want to call me Senior Sister?"

Su Wuchen said, "Strength is what matters. Your cultivation and strength should be above mine, so what's wrong with me calling you Senior Sister?"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaohong fell into thought, then said, "Well, you're not wrong, but I should be younger than you. I don't want to hear you call me Senior Sister, just call me Xiaohong."

"Alright, Senior Sister Xiaohong!" Su Wuchen said.

"You..."

Zhou Xiaohong's veins were popping with anger.

Right now, she wanted to hit someone.

But thinking about the important matter she had to handle, she could only swallow her anger and said, "Don't think just because you're handsome, I won't dare to hit you, hmph, but this lady is in a good mood today, I don't want to bother with you, so, I won't blame you for your offense!"

Su Wuchen, "..."

Zhou Xiaohong asked, "Your name is Su Wuchen, right?"

"Senior Sister Xiaohong knows me?"

"You little brat, you called me Senior Sister again! Hmph, whatever, I won't bother arguing with you. Besides, of course I know who you are! You've only been in the Outer Sect for less than a day, and you've already defeated Lu Tianlang and Lu Feng, the brothers who are in the top ten of the Outer Sect's combat rankings. Who in the Outer Sect doesn't know your name now?"

"..." Su Wuchen was stunned.

But it made sense.

Just now, seeing the Outer Sect disciples' looks of admiration towards him, he could probably imagine how sensational his reputation was in the Outer Sect now.

He looked at Zhou Xiaohong and continued, "Then… Senior Sister Xiaohong, what do you need?"

He didn't believe Zhou Xiaohong stopped him just to chat.

Zhou Xiaohong said, "Su Wuchen, my sister wants to see you."

"Your sister?"

Su Wuchen was dumbfounded.

Zhou Xiaohong said, "That's right, so come with me!"

"No."

Su Wuchen refused directly.

"What did you say?"

Zhou Xiaohong was startled, then angrily said, "No? You... you dare to refuse me?"

Su Wuchen said impatiently, "You tell me to go, and I go? Sorry, I don't know you well."

After saying that, he started walking, directly bypassing Zhou Xiaohong and continuing towards his residence.

"You…"

Zhou Xiaohong was completely stunned, rooted to the spot.

She had actually been rejected!

This was the first time she'd ever been turned down by a man.

You had to understand.

In the entire Outer Sect, there were so many men who wanted to talk to her, but she couldn't be bothered to even acknowledge them.

So, she was always the one doing the rejecting. Never had a man dared to reject her before.

But right now…

She was actually rejected!

This couldn't help but make her doubt her own charm.

Has my appeal diminished? Or does this kid not like women?

When she snapped back to reality, Su Wuchen's figure was already moving further away.

"Hey, you! Why are you running? I haven't finished talking to you, stop right there!"

Soon.

She charged in front of Su Wuchen again, arms outstretched, blocking his path, "Don't go!"

Su Wuchen said, "What do you want?"

"You little brat, you really don't want to meet my sister?"

"Nope."

"My sister is a real beauty, ten times prettier than me. Are you sure you don't want to see her?"

"Not interested!"

"You… Hmph, do you know how hard it is for men in the Inner Sect to even catch a glimpse of my sister?"

Su Wuchen was taken aback. "Your sister is an Inner Sect disciple?"

"That's right."

Seeing Su Wuchen's surprise, Zhou Xiaohong looked smug. "My sister is the number one beauty in the Inner Sect. You'll regret not seeing her, you know."

Su Wuchen said, "What does your sister's beauty have to do with me? I'm not seeing her!"

After saying that, he walked past Zhou Xiaohong again and moved on.

"You..."

Watching Su Wuchen leave again, Zhou Xiaohong was completely infuriated.

At that moment, she really wanted to punch Su Wuchen, that stinky brat, and flatten him.

But when she came, the woman in white had warned her not to use force with Su Wuchen, because it would only backfire.

So, she could only endure and endure with Su Wuchen.

But she didn't expect that Su Wuchen wouldn't even bother to pay attention to her.

This made her feel very frustrated.

It was the first time she'd ever felt this way in her life.

And she was defeated by a stinky brat!

"You think you can get away with anything just because you're handsome?"

After shaking off Zhou Xiaohong, Su Wuchen finally reached his residence.

Entering the small courtyard and returning to the second floor of the small building, it was already night.

He took out all the Spirit Stones he'd gotten from Lu Tianlang and Lu Feng.

Lu Feng's spatial ring contained one low-grade Spirit Stone and 6,515 mid-grade Spirit Stones.

Lu Tianlang's spatial ring held even more Spirit Stones, with one low-grade Spirit Stone and 6,005 mid-grade Spirit Stones.

Therefore, he began to absorb all of the Spirit Stones, preparing to break through to the third level of the Mortal Martial Realm.

As time passed.

Two hours later.

Su Wuchen finally opened his eyes, a trace of disappointment appearing on his face. "I didn't expect that after absorbing so many Spirit Stones, although the energy within me has increased a lot, my cultivation still hasn't managed to break through to the third level of the Mortal Martial Realm. It seems that starting tomorrow, I'll have to find more cultivation resources again!"

He didn't dwell on it.

He'd been busy all day.

It was late at night again.

He was also a little tired.

So, he decided to get some sleep first.

He would deal with anything else tomorrow.

The next morning.

A sliver of dawn appeared on the horizon.

Su Wuchen opened his sleepy eyes and finally woke up.

He yawned and stretched.

After washing up, he took out the Great Heaven Battle Seal from his spatial ring, intending to take a look at it.

"Su Wuchen, come out here!"

Just then, he was interrupted again, and he was a little annoyed.

Why was he always interrupted whenever he tried to open the Great Heaven Battle Seal?

Damn it!

Which bastard dared to disturb his peace?

He put away the Great Heaven Battle Seal again, went down the small building, and opened the door. He saw two young men standing in front of him, both appearing to be eighteen or nineteen years old.

Standing before him was a tall, thin young man with an unremarkable face, but he possessed the cultivation of the Mortal Martial Realm, fourth level.

The young man behind him was slender, with handsome features. He was quite good-looking, but the arrogance between his brows made him unpleasant to look at.

Most importantly, Su Wuchen felt the same way about this person as he did about Zhou Xiaohong: he couldn't see this person's cultivation.

Whenever he encountered this situation, he could immediately determine that this person's strength was very strong.

Su Wuchen looked at the young men and asked, "Who are you? What do you want?"

The handsome man examined Su Wuchen carefully before speaking, "Su Wuchen, right? You just entered our Wind and Thunder Sword Sect and have already defeated the sixth and tenth ranked experts on the Outer Sect's combat strength list. Your talent is not bad. Your reputation has already spread throughout the Outer Sect. You are considered the most outstanding rising star disciple in the Outer Sect's history!"

Su Wuchen didn't feel the slightest bit pleased with this person's praise. Instead, he was somewhat repulsed. "I'll ask again, who are you?"

The tall, thin man said, "Kid, I am Chen Fan, eighth on the Outer Sect's combat strength list. This person beside me is Li Feilong, fourth on the Outer Sect's combat strength list. We're here to find you because we want to tell you something."

"What is it?" Su Wuchen asked.

Chen Fan said, "We've been ordered to take you to see someone."

Su Wuchen was stunned.

Ever since he'd beaten Lu Tianlang and Lu Feng yesterday, why were all the geniuses in the Outer Sect's top ten on the battle strength ranking coming to take him to see someone?

He asked again, "Who?"

"You'll know when you get there."

Chen Fan's tone was indifferent.

Su Wuchen was a little impatient. "The problem is, why should I go with you to see this person?"

Although both of them were strong, Su Wuchen was very unhappy with their attitude.

Besides, he didn't need to go with them to see anyone.

"You dare to refuse us?"

Chen Fan looked at Su Wuchen, his expression displeased.

Su Wuchen narrowed his eyes. "What, I can't refuse you?"

Chen Fan's tone turned cold. "You're going today, whether you like it or not!"

Su Wuchen snorted coldly, "What if I say no?"

"If you dare to say no, I'll beat you!"

"Oh? You want to try?"

"Little brat, you're asking for death!"

Chen Fan finished speaking and threw a punch at Su Wuchen.

Su Wuchen showed no weakness and threw a punch as well.

The two fists collided!

Boom!

A figure flew out.

It was Chen Fan!
