Aunt Feng sighed inwardly, said nothing, and turned back into the house.
Zhou Qian'er looked up at the sky, a hint of sadness flickering deep in her eyes.
Sword Sect.
Star Spirit Peak.
Xue Ying glanced at Jianxin, who was wielding his sword, then looked at Su Chen and asked, "Are you going to the Five Sects Grand Competition?"
Su Chen glanced at her. "What am I supposed to do there?"
Xue Ying asked, "Isn't it boring to stay here all the time?"
Su Chen thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "It is indeed a bit boring."
Xue Ying smiled and said, "Then why don't you go and take a look?"
Su Chen pondered for a moment, then said, "Hmm, that works too."
Xue Ying smiled but said nothing, instead looking at Jianxin in the distance, "His progress is so fast, it's unbelievable."
Su Chen laughed and said, "That's right, don't you even know whose disciple you are?"
Xue Ying's eye twitched. She had seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless.
Su Chen's face darkened. "What's with that expression?"
Xue Ying shrugged. "No."
Su Chen was speechless, then tapped Xue Ying on the head with a finger.
"Ouch, that hurts!"
Xue Ying clutched her head, wincing in pain, then looked at Su Chen with a resentful gaze, "You..."
Su Chen said, "What do you mean 'what do you mean'? Go cook!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Ying felt wronged, but she dared not say anything and could only silently walk towards the kitchen.
Watching Xue Ying's retreating figure, Su Chen shook his head and smiled, "That silly girl, let's see if she dares to disrespect me again."
[They're thousands of years older than you.]
The system's voice sounded.
Su Chen said speechlessly, "What's it to you?"
The system remains silent.
He discovered that Su Chen was truly unreasonable.
Time flies, there are still five days until the Five Sects Grand Competition.
On this day, Chen Wuhen arrived at Star Spirit Peak and found Su Chen.
Chen Wuhen bowed to Su Chen Su Chen, his eyes filled with respect as he looked at him, "Ancestor!"
Su Chen, lying on the wicker chair, opened his eyes and glanced at Chen Wuhen. "What is it?"
Chen Wuhen said, " The Five Sects Grand Competition is about to begin."
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "I heard from Xue Ying that you're going to go and see her?"
Su Chen nodded, then stood up and stretched. "Mm."
Chen Wuhen's face lit up with joy. "With the Ancestor leading them, I can rest assured."
Su Chen glanced at Chen Wuhen, "How many people from the Sword Sect are participating in the Five Sects Grand Competition?"
Chen Wuhen said, "There are five people in total: Sun Qian, Xu Hanhan, Liu Mengting, Ma Ran, and Jianxin. These five are already the strongest among the Sword Sect disciples."
Su Chen nodded. "I understand. Tell them to prepare; we'll depart tomorrow."
Chen Wuhen nodded. "Okay."
After saying that, he left Star Spirit Peak.
Su Chen then looked at Jianxin his sword.
As if sensing something, Jianxin stopped swinging his sword and looked at Su Chen, "Master."
Su Chen nodded. "You heard our conversation just now, right?"
Jianxin nodded and said, "I heard you."
He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Master, is there really anyone of my generation who can fight me?"
Su Chen gave Jianxin a deep look. "You've gotten arrogant."
Jianxin shook his head and said, "No, I just feel that with my current strength, there shouldn't be any opponent of my generation who can defeat me."
Su Chen said, "You've gotten too cocky."
Jianxin remained silent and did not speak.
Su Chen sat back down in the wicker chair before saying, "What makes you think there isn't a more monstrous talent among the younger generation in the entire Immortal Realm than you?"
Jianxin frowned, remaining silent.
Su Chen said, "There are more monsters in this world than you can imagine. Don't get arrogant. No matter what happens in the future, even if you have no rivals in the entire Immortal Realm, you must keep a low profile. Otherwise, if someone beats you up like a grandson one day, don't come looking for me."
Jianxin remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "I understand."
Su Chen shook his head and said, "You've become arrogant. How can you say you know something and then just say so? Deep down, you still believe you're invincible among your generation."
He paused for a moment, then said, "Only when you meet someone as extraordinary as yourself will you understand."
Jian Chen remained silent.
Su Chen shook his head. "Go pack your things; we're leaving tomorrow."
Jianxin didn't speak, he just nodded, then turned and went back to his attic.
The next day.
Chen Wuhen arrived at Star Spirit Peak early in the morning with four disciples of the Sword Sect.
Su Chen, Jianxin, and Xue Ying were already waiting by the lake.
Looking at Su Chen, the four Sword Sect disciples' eyes were filled with curiosity, respect, admiration, and infatuation.
Chen Wuhen said, "Why haven't you paid your respects to the Ancestor yet?"
Upon hearing this, the four Sword Sect disciples dared not hesitate and immediately bowed, "Greetings, Ancestor!"
Su Chen smiled. "No need for formalities."
Seeing Su Chen's smile, the two female disciples were completely captivated, their eyes filled with infatuation.
Looking at the current state of the two female disciples, Xue Ying couldn't help but shake her head and smile.
Su Chen then opened his right hand, and with a thought, a sword appeared in his palm the next moment.
Looking at the sword, Jianxin was taken aback. " The Light Scar Sword?"
As he spoke, he quickly checked his spatial ring and, sure enough, found that the Light Scar Sword was missing.
Jianxin scratched his head, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "When did Master take away the Light Scar Sword?"
Su Chen looked at the Light Scar Sword, then threw it into the void. The next moment, the Light Scar Sword began to grow rapidly, reaching a size of a thousand feet in the blink of an eye.
Su Chen took a step forward, appearing on the sword, then looked down at the crowd below, "Come up."
Jianxin nodded, then leaped onto the sword.
The four Sword Sect disciples exchanged glances, each seeing excitement and anticipation in the other's eyes. Without hesitation, they flew towards the sword.
Su Chen then looked down at Xue Ying, "You really not coming along?"
Xue Ying shook her head and said, "No."
Su Chen nodded and said nothing more.
The next moment.
The Light Scar Sword then carried Su Chen and the others towards the Setting Sun Sect.
Looking at the group that had already disappeared, Chen Wuhen smiled.
Xue Ying then said, "I have to go."
Upon hearing this, Chen Wuhen's smile froze instantly, and he looked at Xue Ying, "You're leaving?"
Xue Ying nodded, then looked in the direction Su Chen and the others had left. "I have to go, because I have a feeling they're coming."
Chen Wuhen frowned, his expression serious, and asked, "What exactly happened to you?!"
Xue Ying shook her head. "You don't need to know."
"You!"
Chen Wuhen was a little angry.
Xue Ying said earnestly, "I'm not telling you for your own good."
Chen Wuhen remained silent for a moment, then asked, "Where are you planning to go?"
Xue Ying shook her head and said, "I don't know."
boom!
As the words fell, the space between heaven and earth suddenly cracked and shattered. Then, a mysterious light appeared from the void rift, and an old man dressed in magnificent robes slowly descended...
