CHAPTER 667: CHAPTER 666 MEETING (5/5)

Chapter 666

"Ye Xin!"

Hearing someone call her name, Ye Xin instinctively stopped her body from leaping forward, turned around, and looked in the direction of the voice.

However, upon seeing the person, a trace of disappointment flickered in Ye Xin’s eyes.

It wasn’t Yang Chen.

She had seen this person several times, always lying on the edge of the nearby cliff, being the earliest to arrive. Moreover, this person’s gaze was very annoying.

But right now, Ye Xin felt that there was a familiar feeling about this person.

However, Ye Xin shook her head and mocked herself, "Perhaps I miss him too much, thinking everyone resembles him!"

...

The moment Ye Xin turned around, Yang Chen felt his heartbeat instantly stop.

No words like a smile that could charm a city could describe Ye Xin’s beauty at this moment.

Dressed in ancient gauze, Ye Xin was nothing short of a fairy at this moment.

Like the legendary Chang’e, the fairy of a hundred flowers....

But in Yang Chen’s eyes, even these fairies couldn’t compare to Ye Xin.

She was breathtakingly beautiful.

Even though they had been together for so long, seeing Ye Xin at this moment, Yang Chen unexpectedly felt the feeling of love at first sight, akin to a first love.

Yang Chen looked deeply and affectionately at Ye Xin. At this moment, it was as if nothing in the outside world mattered, as if nothing outside existed; in his eyes, there was only Ye Xin!

However, Ye Xin still left.

After taking a deep look at Yang Chen, she leapt forward, the colored ribbons fluttering, and completely vanished from sight.

Yang Chen wanted to chase after her but stopped in his tracks, touched his cheek, knowing that Ye Xin wouldn’t recognize him in his current guise. In everyone’s eyes, he was Xuanliang right now.

However, Yang Chen wasn’t in a rush at this moment. After all, this was the Shangqing Sect, and it was better not to expose his identity.

After entering the Shangqing Sect, Yang Chen knew that the foundation of the Shangqing Sect was far from simple. Even though his cultivation was enough to defeat Kun Bai now, he had also heard from Xuanliang about Ye Xin defeating Kun Bai, defeating the ten elite figures of the sect to avenge him. Additionally, there was the matter of Ye Xin confronting the Sect Master.

Therefore, Yang Chen knew very well that even if he could defeat Kun Bai now and could defeat the ten elite figures of Shangyao and others from the sect, it would be about on par with Ye Xin’s current cultivation. Yet, it would still be daunting to oppose someone like the Shangqing Sect Master.

In any battle, it’s not just about brute strength, unless one is overwhelmingly powerful, like an elephant crushing an ant. That’s why strategy is essential.

When it comes to strategy, Yang Chen has always been at an international pinnacle.

While he might not compare to the likes of Zhuge Liang or Guo Jia, he’s more than sufficient to outsmart those in the Shangqing Sect who haven’t experienced warfare. Even if these people are geniuses, they are not Yang Chen’s opponents.

Immediately, Yang Chen turned around, prepared to do what Xuanliang should do, disguising his identity.

As soon as Yang Chen returned, a group of people surrounded him.

"Senior Brother Xuanliang! You’re amazing!"

"Xuanliang, are you crazy?"

"You really dare to pursue the goddess!"

"I admire your courage!"

"What a pity, did the goddess say anything to you just now?"

Everyone was extremely excited, feeling that Yang Chen’s actions were what they wished to do, even though the result wasn’t great.

Yang Chen smiled bitterly, shaking his head and said, "Nothing, I still have work to do."

With that, Yang Chen pushed through the crowd, intending to leave.

At this time, a young man blocked Yang Chen, staring at him and said, "Xuanliang, you have a lot of nerve!"

Yang Chen glanced at the man, frowned slightly, and not wanting to pay attention, intended to walk away.

However, the man stretched his arms to block Yang Chen’s path and said coldly, "Xuanliang, let me tell you, you’re just a wood-chopping, water-carrying servant, a mere toad! And Ye Xin is a goddess who stands aloof, not someone a toad like you can fantasize about. All you can do is lie at the edge of the cliff and steal a glance from afar, then go home and fantasize. If you dare to behave like this again, don’t blame me for not letting you off!"

Yang Chen looked coldly at the man and said coldly, "Who are you?"

"Who am I?" the man widened his eyes as if he had heard a funny joke, pushing Yang Chen and said, "You ask who I am? I am your Shishu, Shangwei! When I speak to you, you should kneel and listen. Let me tell you, a goddess like Ye Xin should belong to us, not someone like you who chops wood. If you really can’t hold back, the cattle and sheep raised by our sect are for you to play with as you like! Haha!"

Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.

After all, they needed to curry favor with Shangwei, so naturally, they had to act very cooperative.

Cold light flickered in Yang Chen’s eyes as he stared at Shangwei, saying, "Shangwei, you think just because my seniority is lower than yours that I’m really inferior to you? It’s not certain who the goddess belongs to, it’s not something you can own just by a dog barking twice. I advise you to get lost immediately, or I’ll make you regret it!"

"What did you say!" Hearing Yang Chen call him a dog, Shangwei immediately widened his eyes, prepared to make a move.

Cold light flickered in Yang Chen’s eyes as he coldly shouted, "Get lost!"

"You’re courting death!" Shangwei roared, throwing a punch at Yang Chen’s nose.

"Overestimating yourself!" Yang Chen snorted coldly, grabbing Shangwei’s punching wrist.

Slap!

Yang Chen held on tightly to Shangwei’s wrist, making it impossible for Shangwei’s fist to advance any further.

"Oh my god!"

"How is this possible!"

"Xuanliang is actually this powerful!"

"Looks like he has truly broken through his cultivation!"

"So impressive!"

"Now, Xuanliang will likely become an Inner Sect Disciple!"

Everyone was full of amazement.

When Yang Chen had shown such speed earlier, it had already surprised them greatly, and they suspected that Xuanliang had broken through his cultivation. They didn’t expect that now he could catch Shangwei’s fist and make it impossible for Shangwei to break free. It seems Xuanliang’s cultivation is higher than they imagined!

"You!" Shangwei’s eyes widened in fear, discovering that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t retract his fist. Moreover, his wrist felt as if it were caught by a pincer, and under Yang Chen’s increasing grip, he felt his wrist was about to be crushed by Yang Chen.

Yang Chen’s falcon-like eyes stared coldly at Shangwei, and he said coldly, "If I see you peeping at the goddess here again, I’ll cripple you completely! Consider this your lesson for today!"

Saying that, Yang Chen forcefully twisted his arm.

Crack!

Shangwei’s arm was immediately twisted into a bizarre angle, broken!

"Ah!" Shangwei screamed in agony.

Yang Chen lifted a foot and kicked Shangwei away, sending him crashing to the ground a meter away, unconscious.

Yang Chen coldly glanced at the unconscious Shangwei, snorted, and walked away with broad steps.

Everyone was dumbfounded, unable to believe what they had witnessed.

They never thought that Xuanliang would dare to strike Shangwei.

After all, Shangwei was the grandson of the Third Elder!
