Chapter 1245: Chapter 1243 This Bastard (1 more update)

“Senior, do you want to take him as a disciple?” Lan Dingtian couldn’t help but ask.

“Take him as a disciple? I’m not qualified. It’s good to form a friendly bond though.” The elder with completely white eyes stroked his own beard.

The four of Lan Dingtian were rendered speechless. They were fortunate enough to have witnessed how terrifying the elder with completely white eyes could be.

The only time the elder with completely white eyes acted was when Yanxu Palace faced a life-and-death crisis. At that time, an ultra-powerful figure from Great Luo Heaven descended upon Yanxu Palace and almost destroyed it with a wave of his hand. Lan Dingtian, combined with the full strength of the six elders at the time, couldn’t withstand three moves from him. One can imagine how terrifying that powerful figure from Great Luo Heaven was.

Yet, despite this, the elder with completely white eyes defeated him with just one slap, like a dream more surreal than a dream.

To this day, Lan Dingtian still doesn’t know how powerful the elder with completely white eyes truly is, only that he is extremely powerful.

Even so, the elder with completely white eyes still says he’s not qualified to be that boy’s master? Lan Dingtian’s breath became heated as he thought to himself that when Su Chen joins Yanxu Palace, he must take Su Chen as his disciple.

At the same time.

Assessment Island.

Inside the cave.

Su Chen held Lin Yanran in his arms, feeding her blood. Blood dripped from his finger onto her red lips, sliding into her mouth.

Then, Lin Yanran’s breathing stabilized a lot. Originally her breath was like a candle in the wind, about to extinguish at any moment. Now, it was like a resilient spark, quickly spreading.

Moreover, those blood- and flesh-covered, broken and shattered bones on Lin Yanran’s shoulder also slowly began to heal and recover.

After a long time.

Lin Yanran slightly opened her eyes, her absolutely beautiful and cold face carrying a hint of weakness, giving a sense of delicacy. Her beautiful eyes first showed confusion, then surprise, and memories surged back like a tide.

She remembered that in the final moment against the Earth Dragon Crocodile, when facing life and death, she was embraced by a warm hug. It was Su Chen; Su Chen saved her.

At this moment, when she opened her eyes, the first person she saw was Su Chen. Shy, aggrieved, moved, fortunate—all kinds of complex emotions flooded her heart.

She then felt that she seemed… seemed to still be held in Su Chen’s arms, at which her pale face showed a hint of blush.

“I told you to hide in the cave, but you didn’t want to, insisted on going out to hunt demon beasts.” Su Chen spoke.

“I…” Lin Yanran’s tears overflowed as she bit her lip, staring at Su Chen, “Could it be that I should just stay in the cave hiding? Then be eliminated?”

“Who said you’d be eliminated?”

“Not hunting demon beasts means zero points, of course I’d be eliminated!”

“You can rob others’.” Su Chen said indifferently, “The rules allow stealing others’ points…”

“How could it be our turn to rob others? They’re already not robbing us, and that’s considered good.” Lin Yanran’s voice rose by three points.

She knew very well that top-tier talents like Bei Buxiu, Guo Dingyang, and Woe Lingyun would all be robbing others’ points, so there’s no way for Su Chen and her to rob them!

Unless Su Chen and she went to rob Bei Buxiu, Guo Dingyang, or Woe Lingyun, but isn’t that asking for death?

“Your injuries are almost healed, tend to yourself a bit more, I need to cultivate.” Su Chen said no more, “Get up!”

Lin Yanran hesitated for a moment but still asked, “Have you been following me to protect me?”

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that Su Chen appeared at her critical moment? If Su Chen had been a moment later, she would have already died.

Lin Yanran couldn’t believe it was such a coincidence.

“No, you’re overthinking it.” Su Chen denied, how could he be available to follow behind Lin Yanran to protect her? It was only when the Old Dragon had nothing to do that it slightly watched over her. For the Old Dragon, it couldn’t be easier, and it reminded Su Chen when Lin Yanran was in danger.

Upon hearing Su Chen’s denial, Lin Yanran just gave him a deep look. She felt Su Chen was deliberately not admitting it, and her heart sped up slightly. Was he really so concerned about her? Silently protecting her?

Could he have fallen for her? What if he confessed to her? Lin Yanran got flustered.

Su Chen had already saved her twice.

“Hurry up and get up,” Su Chen said helplessly. This woman, does she feel comfortable sleeping in his arms? She actually doesn’t want to get up?

“Ah?” Only then did Lin Yanran realize she was still lying in Su Chen’s arms and suddenly blushed as she hurriedly stood up.

“From now on, just stay put and heal. Don’t go hunting demon beasts anymore.” Su Chen glanced at Lin Yanran, who had stood up, his voice carrying a hint of sternness and authority.

Lin Yanran wanted to retort but ultimately nodded. Even though she couldn’t explain why she didn’t dare refute, the fact was that she was somehow a little afraid of Su Chen, afraid that he might get angry.

Lin Yanran thought that this assessment, it seems, she definitely can’t place in the ranking; she couldn’t even make the top thousand, let alone the top hundred, and couldn’t get into Yanxu Palace.

Although it was somewhat regrettable and disappointing, she accepted it. At least she was still alive. She could take the assessment again next time Yanxu Palace holds admissions. After all, she’s still young, and well, he’s also young.

Having figured it out, Lin Yanran no longer fretted, sitting cross-legged on the ground to heal. Meanwhile, she sneaked a glance at Su Chen, who was already immersed in cultivation. Lin Yanran couldn’t help but feel some emotional turmoil.

This bastard, he acts quite convincingly, clearly he cares about her, otherwise why would he follow and protect her? Yet now, he’s acting coldly, really knows how to put on an act.

She laughed again, showing a trace of pride and an almost imperceptible smile that was seemingly sweet, murmuring, “This bastard is quite manly.”

Daring to stand up to save someone in front of the Earth Dragon Crocodile, daring to defend her against Bei Buxiu, no one else would have done it, especially not Huang Chen. Haha, even if you gave Huang Chen ten times the courage, he wouldn’t do it.

Then, Lin Yanran suddenly noticed that her shoulder was almost fully healed, and the previously shattered, bloody mess appeared to show no trace of injury, as if it had been an illusion.

“How is that possible?” Lin Yanran was stunned, both delighted and incredulous, wanting to ask Su Chen how he did it, but since Su Chen was already cultivating, she didn’t dare disturb him.

“He must have used the most top-level elixir, right?”

Lin Yanran wasn’t an ignorant fool. As the eldest daughter of the Lin Family, she was quite knowledgeable.

This kind of elixir that could regrow flesh and bones in a short time must be super high level, at least Mortal Shedding Level, a rare treasure indeed.
