Fei Yanyan, Can You Be a Little More Refined?

As soon as Su Chen said this, the few people on the scene looked over, their eyes filled with confusion.

Su Chen also felt that his words sounded a bit off, so he rephrased, "What I meant was, the carriages back in our village never ran this fast."

Yue Guan covered his mouth and chuckled, "That is only natural. These are spirit beast steeds tamed by our Martial Soul Hall, and the carriage itself was crafted by a master. It travels a thousand li a day."

Su Chen nodded slightly, though he couldn't help but roll his eyes internally—was this really something to be proud of?

In any other fantasy world, people used flying beasts to pull their carriages, and top-tier experts traveled via void teleportation!

Take Chrysanthemum Guan for example; he had always been able to suppress Dugu Bo, yet just because Tang San gifted Dugu Bo a pair of Mother-Child Soul-Chasing Orbs, he ended up being suppressed by Dugu Bo instead.

If it were a Soul Tool, that would be one thing, but where did a hidden weapon get the power for such an explosive burst? Still, there was no helping it; since even Qian Renxue didn't say anything, what was the point of becoming a god anyway!

On the carriage, Su Chen chatted idly with them while feeling an increasing urge to test where his own limits lay.

Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track was already profound and mysterious, so what level was his century-old cultivation of Wind God Leg?

At night, the group rested around a campfire.

Hu Liena handed the roasted spirit beast meat in her hand to Su Chen. "Here, you eat this."

Su Chen thanked her politely, feeling that things were becoming increasingly wrong.

He could interpret Hu Liena's enthusiasm as a crush, but aside from Fei Yanyan, even Yue Guan and the others showed no signs of disgust toward him.

This was a major issue!

He was currently only a level fifteen spirit master. Even if Hu Liena had a crush on him, the others should have tried to stop her and felt a sense of repulsion toward him.

Yet, none of that happened.

Nearby, Fei Yanyan was so angry that he tore into his roasted meat with large bites, as if he were taking his hatred out on the food, viciously biting down piece by piece as if he were tearing Su Chen apart.

Before long, he was full and let out a burp.

Hu Liena frowned as she looked at Fei Yanyan and said, "Fei Yanyan, can't you be a bit more refined when you eat? How uncouth!"

Fei Yanyan's expression turned awkward instantly, and he hurriedly tried to appease her, "That... sorry about that, I won't do it next time."

As he spoke, Fei Yanyan suddenly noticed Su Chen, who was also devouring his roasted meat in large bites, and he hurriedly retorted, "Hey! Su Chen, can't you be more refined when you eat? You're so uncouth!"

Su Chen: ???

Su Chen paused and said, "This... Hu Liena's cooking is very good, I'll be more careful next time."

Hu Liena's face broke into a smile as she looked at Su Chen and said gently, "It's alright, for a boy, that's called being bold and unconstrained."

"Pfft—!"

Su Chen instantly spat out his food, staring at Hu Liena in a daze... Big sister! Are you from the grasslands or something?

Gui Mei and Xie Yue both looked at Hu Liena simultaneously, feeling even more pity for Fei Yanyan in their hearts.

Sure enough!

When you're in love, everything you do is right.

When you're not in love, everything you do is wrong.

How had they never noticed that you, Hu Liena, were such a hypocrite before?

Even the two carriage drivers were stunned; these city folk really knew how to play.

At this moment, the emotions Fei Yanyan had been suppressing all afternoon finally erupted.

Damn it!

Where exactly am I inferior to him?

I hate this!

Fei Yanyan stood up abruptly, pointed a finger at Su Chen, and said with a trembling voice, "Su Chen! I want to duel you!"

"I don't care what method you used to trick Nana, if you're a man, then fight me."

"If you win, I will never interfere with your business with Nana again. If you lose, you are forbidden from ever approaching Nana again!"

Hu Liena also became instantly incensed; she rose to her feet, blocked Su Chen with her body, and said with a dark expression:

"Yan, that's enough."

"Do you remember what the teacher instructed before we left? If you keep acting out, you are going back to Martial Soul City this instant."

Hu Liena was truly furious.

If she had known, she shouldn't have brought Yan along. This trip wasn't even for hunting spirit rings; it was meant to be a chance to stay by Su Chen's side and grow closer to him.

This bastard kept looking for trouble with Su Chen!

Yan gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I go back, I must duel him today. A weakling is not worthy of your favor!"

Su Chen stood up, his eyes filled with pity as he looked at Yan: You were born a simp; even without my arrival, you would still be a simp!

"A duel is fine, but I have a truth to tell you: the outcome between us won't change Hu Liena's attitude toward either of us."

"Furthermore! If you lose, Hu Liena will look down on you and admire me even more. If I lose and get hurt by you, Hu Liena will feel sorry for me and despise you even more."

"You might earn a small profit from this match, but I will never lose. Are you sure you still want to continue?"

"Cough, cough!"

Gui Mei and Xie Yue were both choked by his words. Su Chen's logic was simply too clear—it would play out exactly like that one hundred percent of the time!

That was truly heart-wrenching.

Hu Liena, meanwhile, glanced at Su Chen with a shy expression, wondering what kind of strange things were going through her mind...

Yan stood there foolishly, staring at Su Chen, not knowing what he should do anymore.

That's right!

Su Chen was absolutely correct. It was impossible for him to lose, but if he beat Su Chen up, wouldn't that just bring the two of them even closer together?

I hate this!

Yan turned and bolted into the woods, and immediately after... a series of "thump, thump, thump" sounds of someone punching trees echoed out.

"No!"

"No!!"

"No!!!"

Following Yan's roar, Yue Guan, who had just stepped into the woods to relieve himself, walked back and asked with a confused expression:

"Kid Yan, what's wrong with you?"

Yan was in agony, kneeling on the ground and roaring at the sky: "I don't know how to solve this problem, I don't know how to solve it, it's too hard!!!"

Su Chen shook his head slightly and hummed softly:

"True love is as vast as the grasslands~"

"Layer upon layer of wind and rain cannot block it~"

"There will always be a time when the clouds clear and the sun rises~"

"Ten thousand feet of sunlight, shining upon you and me~"

Hu Liena looked at Su Chen with stars in her eyes, clenching her hands as she asked:

"Su Chen, what were you singing just now? Why does it sound so good?"

Su Chen smiled faintly:

"Just a bit of vocal accompaniment, nothing worth mentioning. Of course, I only sing this song when it's needed; the activation conditions are quite difficult."

After saying this, Su Chen didn't forget to glance back at Yan in the distance.

The night had already deepened.

For Fei Yanyan, tonight was destined to be a sleepless one!

Of course.

Hu Liena hadn't slept yet either. She was waiting for the Diary to distribute rewards. Although she wasn't sure if today's good fortune would include her, she had to check regardless!

At the same time.

Women all over the world who possessed a Diary Copy were also awake, all waiting to see if the Diary would distribute rewards today.

If it did, who would it be?

Bibi Dong.

Liu Erlong.

Because today's content was about Yu Xiaogang, these two had been mentioned the most, so it should be them, right?
