Zhang Xuelian rubbed her eyebrows, listening to Yang Chen’s words, but there was no anger in her expression. Instead, she opened her eyes wide in amazement, revealing a caDtivatinz smile.
She laughed, her smile blooming like a flower, stunningly beautiful: “Yang
Chen, if you speak like this, it only means that you don’t like me yet.”
“Indeed, I have no reason to like you.” Yang Chen shrugged. “If you think your beauty, talent, and martial arts cultivation can make me adore you and pursue you, then it’s just impossible. Adoration and liking are two different concepts. And more to the point, I don’t adore you at all.”
If it were his previous life, where he hadn’t experienced much, it would be normal to be smitten with a beautiful woman. But ever since he was betrayed by Hua Wanru, he had become indifferent to many things.
Zhang Xuelian’s red lips parted slightly as she said, “You’re right. You don’t like me. But when it comes to matters of destiny, you can’t stop it if it comes.” “Why can’t it be stopped?” Yang Chen stared intently at Zhang Xuelian. “Tell me!”
Zhang Xuelian’s mouth curled up, “I’ve heard from Zi Lan that there are other women by your side, such as your maid Gu Mingyue and your non-blood-related older sister Yang Caidie. Or even the ladies from our Yanhua Pool. I don’t want to know about how many women you have. It’s very normal for men like you.”
“But there’s one thing I want you to know. I can wait for you for hundreds or even thousands of years. Time is not a problem for me, but it’s difficult for your other women and family members. To put it simply, how long can they live with the passage of time? A thousand years, a few thousand years?” Upon hearing this, Yang Chen froze for a moment and fell silent.
A few thousand years is an incredibly long number.
How many people could live that long?
Very few.
If their martial arts cultivation does not reach that level, it’s impossible.
Even if they do reach it, with so many natural and man-made disasters, do you think you’ll be able to live peacefully for thousands of years?
Even if his alchemy skills were exquisite enough to help prolong someone’s life for a hundred years, what about a thousand?
Unless he could help them transform their bodies completely, but even so, it would at most only prolong their lifespan by a thousand years, any longer would be nearly impossible.
He could not refute Zhang Xuelian’s words at all.
She blatantly told him that while she might not be the most powerful in other aspects, she had a strong cultivation base, and that was enough.
“So… I can wait for you a year, or even thousands of years or longer. Others won’t live that long! Whether you like me or not, when you think back to my words, you’ll know that this is our fate, and it’s destined to be this way. You can’t stop it. Haha, after a thousand years, you’ll be mine.” Zhang Xuelian’s smile vanished, and she rested her head on her hand, speaking in a cold tone.
Yang Chen wanted to refute Zhang Xuelian’s serious nonsense, but when he tried, he didn’t know what to say.
It seemed that Zhang Xuelian’s words were flawless.
That’s just how it was.
This…
Yang Chen asked doubtfully, “Are you sure the fate has ordained me as your partner now?”
“I’m about ninety percent sure.” Zhang Xuelian said.
“Ninety percent… So, can I take advantage of you right now?” Yang Chen asked with a cough.
Zhang Xuelian looked at Yang Chen coldly, “We are both souls now, everything is an illusion. Even if I were to let you take advantage, you wouldn’t be able to.”
“If you take off some of your clothes, I should still be able to see.” Yang Chen said with a grin.
“I am a soul now. If I take off my clothes, it’s fake too, purely your imagination.” Zhang Xuelian said bluntly. “If you really want to take advantage, tn find ”
Yang Chen sighed.
He wanted to make Zhang Xuelian a little more interesting and not so cold all the time, which was really boring.
But who knew Zhang Xuelian would be so serious? She always stuck to her principles, making everything so dull. Yang Chen was unwilling to accept that his future wife would be such a dispassionate woman. He had thought he was serious enough, but this woman turned out to be even more serious than him.
Thinking about this, he could only sigh, “Where are you now?”
“I’m at Changxing Mountain…”
As Zhang Xuelian finished speaking, she gave Yang Chen a brief glance and her soul dispersed, leaving the Dharma Secret Map.
Seeing Zhang Xuelian’s soul disperse, Yang Chen did not linger and let his soul disperse too, returning to his consciousness and leaving the Dharma Secret Map.
Upon leaving the Dharma Secret Map, Yang Chen went outside and saw Cao Zilan waiting for him.
However, Cao Zilan didn’t seem the least bit curious about what Yang Chen and
Zhang Xuelian had talked about and simply smiled and waved his hand, “Yang
Chen, my friend, please have a seat.”
“You’re being too polite, Senior Cao.” Yang Chen responded courteously.
“Soon, the next round of the knockout competition will start. In Sun Star City, there are countless geniuses, and it seems that the top geniuses of North Mountain County have already faltered. For the next round, the strongest one left will be you, Yang Chen.”
Cao Zilan chuckled, “I wonder, do you have any confidence against those people?”
Yang Chen could tell that Cao Zilan was wise.
At least he didn’t probe into the conversation between him and Zhang Xuelian, indicating that Cao Zilan knew how to handle things well.
Hearing Cao Zilan’s somewhat probing question, Yang Chen responded with a question of his own, “What do you think, Senior Cao?”
Upon hearing this, Cao Zilan couldn’t help but smile, “Initially, I thought that the most formidable genius of North Mountain County was actually Lu Yihan, but now I don’t think so.”
Yang Chen remained silent.
In fact, Lu Yihan was indeed an extraordinary genius, but Yang Chen didn’t feel threatened by him. He hadn’t yet emerged to the point where he posed a challenge to Yang Chen.
However, the geniuses from Sun Star Region were different.
Each of those geniuses from Sun Star Region practiced unique cultivation methods. They hadn’t even shown their full strength, defeating North
Mountain County’s geniuses with just 30-50% of their power. This left Yang Chen without any clues to use, and his next round against these geniuses would be completely unknown to him.
This also made Yang Chen secretly Rally his fighting spirit. After chatting with Cao Zilan for a while, he got up and left.
On his way back to Beishan Main City, Yang Chen began to close himself off for rapid cultivation.
With his current stable realm, it would not be easy to advance another level in such a short time.
So without a word, Yang Chen focused his thoughts on the ‘Lightning
Movement Technique’..
