Chapter 625: Chapter 645: Who Do You Think You Are? _1

"Lin Brother, have you decided to enter the Secret Realm?"

In the restaurant, Situ Xiu held a glass of wine and asked curiously, "Will you go alone, or team up with someone?"

Lin Chen looked up: "Who should I team up with?"

Situ Xiu said with a smile: "Entering the Secret Realm is quite dangerous, so many people choose to team up. Although the share of the adventure may be less, the safety is much higher. With your Golden Core strength, you’ll be very welcome to join a team."

Lin Chen shook his head: "Forget it, I’m not familiar with the area and cooperating with others can be quite troublesome."

Situ Xiu nodded: "In that case, be careful not to go too deep. The Demonic Beasts in the depths of the Secret Realm are incredibly powerful."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "How powerful?"

Situ Xiu chuckled: "It is said that the Cave Master once went to the deepest part of the Secret Realm and encountered a Golden Roc. He fought a fierce battle and, although he won, it is said he was not unscathed."

Lin Chen widened his eyes, shocked: "That powerful?"

Situ Xiu nodded: "Yes, every time the Spiritual Rhinoceros Storm occurs, countless beasts become Demonic Beasts, and the original Demonic Beasts become even more powerful. It’s only natural that the Demonic Beasts in the deepest part, which have experienced countless Spiritual Rhinoceros Storms, are extremely strong."

Lin Chen nodded and casually asked, "Are you going?"

Situ Xiu nodded: "I’m going to have a look, but I just plan to try my luck around the entrance and not hold you back."

"Alright, good luck!"

After finishing their meal, the two rode their Immortal Cranes to the Secret Realm Entrance.

The Immortal Crane flew over a hundred miles and then landed at the entrance of a valley.

There were already many people waiting here, young and old, men and women, at least hundreds of them.

Lin Chen sighed: "So many people, it’s pretty lively, huh?"

Situ Xiu said with a laugh: "Naturally, the first batch to enter has the highest probability of getting good things. These are the people who have confidence in their own strength. Those with weaker strength will enter one or two days later. Although the chance of getting good things is greatly reduced, the danger is also much lower."

Lin Chen laughed: "Pioneers and followers, risk and profit are directly proportional."

"Situ Xiu!"

A crisp feminine voice sounded, and Situ Xiu’s face suddenly changed, a bitter smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Lin Chen looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall, beautiful woman in her late twenties staring coldly at Situ Xiu, looking displeased.

"Liu Yuan!"

Situ Xiu whispered a word, and Lin Chen suddenly realized, wasn’t this the woman Situ Xiu had run away from marrying?

She’s quite beautiful!

Situ Xiu turned his head, showing a bright but helpless expression on his face: "Miss Liu, long time no see, how have you been?"

Liu Yuan came over with arms crossed, followed by three men. Their gazes were somewhat strange, with a hidden hostility towards Situ Xiu.

"Thanks to you, everyone now knows that I’ve been rejected by a man. How could I be doing well?"

Situ Xiu apologized with a bitter smile: "I’m sorry."

Liu Yuan sneered: "One apology is enough? Do you know how many people have laughed at me, and what they say about me?"

Situ Xiu explained gently: "Miss Liu, we didn’t have any relationship before. I felt ashamed of myself and thought I wasn’t good enough for Miss Liu, so I rejected the marriage proposal. Please don’t take it to heart."

"Hmph! You talk nicely, but don’t think I don’t know what you’re really thinking!"

Liu Yuan mocked Situ Xiu, then looked at Lin Chen: "I heard you made a friend, a newcomer from the outside?"

Situ Xiu tried to sell his misfortune again: "Lin Brother saw me eating noodles pitifully and invited me to dinner, where did the friendship come from?"

Lin Chen watched the scene and almost laughed out loud.

This Situ Xiu was just too pitiful.

He took the initiative to show weakness, took all the blame, and even tried to avoid implicating Lin Chen by not admitting that they were friends.

Of course, strictly speaking, the relationship between Lin Chen and Situ Xiu could not be considered friends, but rather strangers who got along well.

Liu Yuan sneered: "The eldest son of the Situ Family, can’t afford to eat meat and is really pitiful! How about today, in front of everyone, you kneel down and tell everyone that you’re not good enough for me? I’ll let bygones be bygones and won’t bother you anymore. You can go home and continue being the Situ Family’s son, how about that?"

Situ Xiu’s face turned cold, a hint of anger in his eyes, and his voice hardened: "Miss Liu, don’t be too greedy!"

Liu Yuan sneered: "What do you mean by greedy? Are you not the one who ruined my reputation?"

Situ Xiu gritted his teeth: "You proposed the engagement, which I never agreed to. Just because you are attracted to me, I have to marry you? Who do you think you are?"

Liu Yuan’s face turned red instantly.

Situ Xiu’s words were like a fierce slap on her face, leaving her humiliated and discredited in front of everyone. She felt completely disgraced.

"Situ Xiu, you’re seeking death!"
