Chu Ye: Did You Brush Your Teeth Today? Why Does Your Mouth Stink So Bad?

Chu Ye: Did You Brush Your Teeth Today? Why Does Your Mouth Stink So Bad?

"W-what did you call me?" Qian Renxue's heartstrings were stirred once again.

"Xue'er!"

"Hmph~! You're three years younger than me, and you're actually calling me Xue'er." Qian Renxue's little face flushed, a little bashful, but for some reason, she felt very happy inside. A bright, sweet smile appeared on her face. "But, well, I like it when you call me Xue'er."

Looking at the innocent, adorable, kind, cheerful, and sunny Qian Renxue before him, Chu Ye was momentarily entranced by her bright, sweet smile.

This month spent together seemed to make Chu Ye forget the appearance and personality Qian Renxue had in his memories.

In his memories, the grown-up Qian Renxue almost never smiled. She also no longer had this cheerful, sunny personality, but had become someone deeply calculating, someone who put interests above all else, forbearing and decisive.

Although her identity and background looked extremely glamorous, when Chu Ye had read the story of Douluo Continent before, he had never felt that Qian Renxue was a happy person.

Her life, one could say, had entered a lifetime of sorrow when she went undercover in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace at nine years old.

From then on, she had begun carrying enormous pressure, responsibility, and goals, giving up her childhood and the life she wanted. And the greatest reason for the change in Qian Renxue's personality was those twenty years spent undercover in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

He wanted less and less for Qian Renxue to go through those things, and wanted more and more for her to stay by his side.

"If you like it, then from now on, I'll always call you Xue'er," Chu Ye said gently.

"Okay!" Qian Renxue smiled sweetly.

Chu Ye looked at Qian Renxue, very serious. "Xue'er, you look really beautiful when you smile. I hope that smile of yours will never disappear."

Chu Ye's words made Qian Renxue's heart pound like a little deer running wild. Shy, she stammered, "I-I'm going back first. Do your best tomorrow."

With that, she ran off bashfully.

Chu Ye also withdrew his gaze and turned to go home.

The next morning.

A large group of Spirit Hall disciples had gathered early on the Cultivation Ground, waiting to watch the show.

It was said to be a sparring match, but in truth, everyone could see that Yu Hu deliberately wanted to teach Chu Ye a lesson. This battle had already spread throughout the Pope's Palace.

This month, Chu Ye had stuck together with Qian Renxue every day while cultivating. Yu Hu had long since been so angry his teeth itched. Anyone could see that he was itching to immediately teach Chu Ye a lesson.

And Chu Ye's relationship with Qian Renxue had also made countless male disciples envious and jealous. They were also dying to see Chu Ye get pinned to the ground and beaten by Yu Hu.

Now Yu Hu had already arrived and was warming up here. All that was missing was Chu Ye.

"Hey, hey, hey, why hasn't this Chu Ye come yet! He couldn't be scared, could he?"

"Chu Ye has a God-tier Martial Soul and Innate Soul Power. Geniuses like him all have pride, right? He shouldn't be so cowardly that he doesn't dare come."

"Heh, that's not necessarily true. So what if he has a God-tier Martial Soul and Innate Full Soul Power? After all, he's only cultivated for one month. How could he possibly be a match for Yu Hu, who's already cultivated for three years and reached level 18? This kid must be afraid of getting beaten up and doesn't dare come, haha."

"Hahahaha! Probably."

Quite a few disciples were chatting and mocking him.

Just then, Chu Ye finally appeared, with Qian Renxue beside him. The two slowly walked over.

"Hey! Look! He's here! He's here! Chu Ye really came!"

The scene stirred into a small uproar.

"I didn't expect this kid to actually dare come!"

"He's done for! He's done for! She Hu is Snake Spear Elder's grandson. Even if Chu Ye is Her Holiness the Pope's disciple, Yu Hu still dares to go heavy in this kind of setting!"

"Hahaha! Good thing he came. Now we've got a show to watch. This Chu Ye is going to suffer today, hehe!"

Clearly, no one had any confidence in Chu Ye at all. No one thought Chu Ye would be Yu Hu's match.

Hu Liena, Yan, and Xie Yue were also at the scene. Seeing this, Yan snorted coldly. "Hmph, I don't know what this kid is trying to prove. Does he really think he can beat Yu Hu? He could've just hidden away, but he insisted on coming here to embarrass himself."

Although Yan's relationship with Chu Ye was not very good, they were all orphans who had been taken in by the Pope's Palace since childhood and had grown up together.

Among Spirit Hall disciples, there were three groups.

The first, which made up the majority, were descendants of Spirit Masters within Spirit Hall's forces, people with connections, backgrounds, and backers.

The second were talented youths awakened at the Martial Soul Branch Halls established within the Two Great Empires, who were then brought into the Pope's Palace to become disciples.

The third were orphans like Xie Yue, Yan, Hu Liena, and Chu Ye, who had been raised by the Pope's Palace since childhood.

The orphan group was very united and looked after one another, like a collective. So in Yan's view, if Chu Ye was beaten badly today, it would be an embarrassment to them.

Xie Yue also sighed, not optimistic. "Chu Ye's talent is naturally powerful. Given time, there's a great chance he'll surpass Yu Hu. But today, he shouldn't have come."

Hu Liena, however, covered her mouth and secretly laughed, because she knew Chu Ye's current strength. But she had not told Yan and Xie Yue the truth.

"Heh, I didn't expect you to actually dare come, kid. You've got guts." Yu Hu walked up to Chu Ye with an excited, arrogant look and said.

Chu Ye shrugged. "Let's not waste time on this nonsense. Hurry up and fight. I still have to cultivate later."

"Hahahahaha! Hey, hey, hey, did I hear that wrong?" Hearing this, Yu Hu burst into laughter. His mouth slowly moved close to Chu Ye's ear, and he said in a low voice, "Kid, do you think that after fighting me today, you'll still be able to stand up and cultivate?"

Chu Ye frowned, not because of Yu Hu's words, but because he smelled a stench. Somewhat disgusted, he said, "Did you brush your teeth today? Why does your mouth stink so bad?"

"You!" Yu Hu instantly flew into a rage. He forcibly suppressed his anger, gritted his teeth, and finally revealed a bit of viciousness on his face. "Very good, Chu Ye. Don't think that just because you're Her Holiness the Pope's disciple, I won't dare hit you hard. Today, just watch me beat you until your teeth are all over the ground."

"After this, you'd better stay far away from Qian Renxue. Otherwise, I'll come looking for you again."

With that, Yu Hu walked first to the center of the fighting ground.

Looking at Yu Hu's back, Chu Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, and a trace of ruthlessness also flowed through his expression. "Heh." He gave a cold snort and also walked to the center of the ground, opposite Yu Hu.

"Come on! Chu Ye, today we'll have a nice, enjoyable fight!" Yu Hu said pretentiously, his expression incomparably confident, while in his heart he could hardly wait to pin Chu Ye to the ground and beat him savagely.

Looking at the confident Yu Hu, as well as the gazes of the many people around waiting to see him make a fool of himself, Chu Ye shook his head and could not help finding it funny.

Over this month, he had never used his Martial Soul to fight in front of outsiders, nor had he ever revealed his current Soul Power Level or Soul Ring age.

Aside from Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong, and Hu Liena, no one knew how strong he was now!

Today, he was destined to disappoint this crowd of people who wanted to see him embarrass himself.
