Chapter Seventy-Nine: Huang Ying

  Chen Xuan was studying the exercise method in his own cave, when suddenly someone outside called him, and it was a woman, Chen Xuan was stunned at that moment.

  When did I get involved with the core disciples, and it's still a woman. I seem to be familiar with this voice, as if I've heard it somewhere before. He said his name was Huang Ying, isn't that the daughter of the lord of Huang City? What is he doing looking for me? Chen Xuan immediately remembered the auction scene, where he had heard Huang Ying's voice before, but at that time it was cold and icy, this time it sounded very gentle. Am I, Chen Xuan, having a romantic encounter?

  Chen Xuan opened the stone gate, and outside the gate stood a girl with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, smiling cleverly, wearing a yellow long skirt that trailed on the ground, slender figure, still with a hint of a smile on her face. This time Huang Ying didn't wear a veil, her facial expression was extraordinary, and she could be considered a stunning beauty.

  "Who are you? What brings you here?" Chen Xuan asked aloud.

  Excuse my sudden intrusion, let me introduce myself first. I am Huang Ying, the core disciple of Dan Xuan Men. This time I came to find you because there is something I want to tell you. Can you tell me where you were last night?

  Chen Xuan was shocked in his heart, but there was no unusual expression on his face. He had already secretly become vigilant.

  "I don't think I need to explain where I went yesterday, do I? You didn't come here to ask about my whereabouts, did you? Besides, as an inner disciple, I wouldn't dare trouble a core disciple with such trivial matters. If that's what you're concerned about, let me tell you, I spent the entire day in my own cave, cultivating, and never left." Chen Xuan said with a flick of his finger.

  Huang Ying kept looking at Chen Xuan's expression, not expecting this young man's heart to be so determined. He didn't change his face at all, and ordinary disciples would show a look of admiration on their faces when they saw the core disciple. This young man not only had no expression but also remained calm when asked where he went last night, as still as a mountain. It was only because Huang Ying witnessed it with her own eyes that she knew this was true. If she hadn't known, she would have thought what he said now was true. This young man is not simple, Huang Ying thought to herself.

  Huang Ying saw that he wasn't telling the truth, and this young man wouldn't admit what happened to him in the woods last night.

  "Huang Ying chuckled twice, Chen Shidi, no need to be so guarded, I came to you without malice, and this time I'm here to bring you news. You think what happened last night was done in secret, but actually there were three people watching your fight all along. Among them, I was one of them, and the other two were core disciples. I came today to tell you that those two core disciples might use this handle to threaten you. After all, killing Bi family's second young master is a big deal. If Bi family finds out, you know what the consequences will be. So I'm telling you in advance, be prepared."

  Chen Xuan heard the killing intent and immediately made preparations for battle. He thought that no one would know about what happened yesterday, but unexpectedly, someone had been lurking nearby.

  "Sister, what do you mean? You didn't come just to deliver a message, but to add another murder charge against me, did you? Killing Bi Shaoqian is a big deal, how could I, a small inner door disciple, possibly do it? Did you make a mistake?" Chen Xuan said coldly.

  "Chen Shidi, you misunderstood me. I didn't come here to threaten you. To be honest, by killing Bi Shaoyan this time, you've done me a great favor. I wouldn't have risked offending two of my senior brothers to come and tell you this in advance if I didn't think it was necessary. You might not know the relationship between Bi Shaoyan and me. What kind of person he is, you should be aware of by now. Actually, I'm engaged to him. My father wanted to marry me off to him to form an alliance between our two families, which would also increase the power of the Huang family. As a woman in the Tianling Continent, one has no autonomy unless they have extraordinary abilities to gain respect. I'm just that kind of woman without autonomy. Originally, I planned to leave Beidou to escape this marriage, but now you've killed Bi Shaoyan, and this alliance is gone too. You've removed the shackles from me, and my cultivation will likely see a rapid improvement in the future. Before, my heart was always weighed down by this matter, and I didn't put cultivation as my top priority. Shouldn't I thank you?" Huang Ying said quietly.

  Looking at him, he didn't seem to be lying. Then did he come over to tell himself that it was all just to thank himself for killing Bi Shaoqing? If this girl is such a person, then she's indeed clear about her debts of gratitude and revenge, Chen Xuan thought to himself;

  Chen Xuan paused for a moment, looked up at Huang Ying, and there was no hint of fear on his face.

  "I'm reiterating again, I didn't go anywhere last night, I was cultivating in my own cave, if Sister Huang came for this matter, she'll probably be disappointed. I'm not your benefactor either. If there's nothing else, I'll go back to cultivation." Chen Xuan said to Huang Ying in front of him.

  Even if Chen Xuan were beaten to death, he wouldn't admit it. Who knows whether this woman is really here to repay a debt of gratitude or not? If she's just trying to probe into his strengths and weaknesses, then he'd be completely exposed, and once she has the upper hand, she can play him however she wants.

  "Junior brother is really too cautious, but don't worry, my words have been passed on, you just be careful yourself, I estimate they will come to find you tonight, you can also choose to leave here and let them not find you, if there's really nowhere to go, you can temporarily hide in my mountain peak," Huang Ying said with a still flushed face.

  "Thanks for your kind intentions, Sister. I haven't done anything anyway, so even if they came, it wouldn't be of any use. Besides, this is Dan Xuan Gate, why should I hide?" Chen Xuan said.

  "Since you've already made up your mind, I won't force you either. You might think you can defeat Half-Step True Martial, but the True Martial Realm is on a completely different level, it's like heaven and earth, fundamentally impossible to connect with each other. Take care, junior brother," Huang Ying said without courtesy.

  Huang Ying was a bit angry, he had come with good intentions to tell him the news, but he actually suspected himself, and was indifferent to himself. In the Dan Xuan Gate, where many disciples surrounded him, today he was ignored by an inner door disciple.

  Since Shifu's words have been conveyed, there is no need to send Shifu off. Chen Xuan took a look and didn't see anything out of the ordinary, so he directly gave the order to disperse the guests.

  Huang Ying glanced at Chen Xuan, wanting to say something, but seeing Chen Xuan's indifferent eyes, she swallowed her words and said, "You're on your own," before flying away.

  Chen Xuan returned to the cave, but this time he didn't have the heart to study the refining technique manual. The fact that he had killed Bi Shaoqin in the forest had already been exposed. If the Bi family found out, he didn't know if they would retaliate against him. He wasn't afraid at all; at worst, he could just hide in the Dan Xuan Gate until his powers improved and then come out again. But once they knew it was him who killed their second young master, things would get complicated if they decided to target his family. His own family only had his grandfather, a mid-stage Lingwu cultivator, and facing such a large family, they could send just one true martial artist to wipe out his entire family. Chen Xuan racked his brains thinking of how to get through this difficult situation. If Huang Ying was telling the truth, those two core disciples would come looking for him because they were interested in his technique. Once he refused to share it with them, they would expose the whole thing and put his family in danger. But if they came, he alone couldn't face off against two true martial artists; even if he managed to hide today, it wasn't a long-term solution - those two would still come looking for him again someday. Everything depended on strength; if he was strong enough, none of this would have happened. As long as they came to fight, Chen Xuan thought viciously, he would just kill them all off.

  Here is a book recommendation for everyone. It's a new work, so it's not easy to get popular, let's all go support it, and if you think it's good, help collect it, fatten it up before killing it.
