Chapter 1070: Chapter 1068: Therefore, Willing (2nd update)

"Want to win me over? Even in such a situation, you want to win me over?" Su Chen murmured to himself.

"Young boy Su, don’t refuse their attempts and goodwill." Jiuyou reminded.

"Why?"

"The Ningtian Continent is far more powerful than the Divine Martial Continent. The Divine Martial Continent is about to face the threat of annihilation. But, what if the Ningtian Continent helps the Divine Martial Continent?" Jiuyou asked.

Su Chen’s eyes lit up.

Indeed!

The Ningtian Continent is very strong, truly strong. As a Middle Martial Plane, it is much more powerful than the Divine Martial Continent.

If the Ningtian Continent aids the Divine Martial Continent, the likelihood of overcoming the Extraterrestrial Celestial Race’s invasion would greatly increase.

"Understood." Su Chen took a deep breath, having made up his mind. He wasn’t someone who couldn’t adapt.

"Young Master Su, if you don’t mind, you can stay at the Cloud Sword Sect for a while. I notice you also cultivate swords, and the Cloud Sword Sect is fundamentally based on the sword. In the sect’s forbidden area, there is a Sword Spirit!" He Shoudao continued.

Another attempt to win him over!

Even at the cost of offering a huge temptation~~~.

"In that case, thank you, Senior He, for your hospitality." Su Chen said with a smile. The change in address from Sect Master He to Senior He was enough to indicate that Su Chen accepted He Shoudao’s goodwill.

"Hahaha..." He Shoudao laughed heartily, then turned to Ji Yu: "Little Yu, you’re familiar with Young Master Su, so take him to Tianyun Pavilion to rest! Young Master Su is also tired today, let him rest for a while. Tomorrow, I’ll have a detailed chat with him."

"Ah? Me? Okay." Ji Yu was still a bit dazed, but instinctively walked towards Su Chen.

"Senior He, I wonder how many days I can stay at the Cloud Sword Sect? I feel a good connection with Young Master Su upon first meeting." At this moment, Du Chi spoke. The situation changed too fast, he had to adapt.

Du Chi was afraid too!

Watching Su Chen and He Shoudao exchange pleasantries. If not careful, Su Chen might be tied to the Cloud Sword Sect by He Shoudao, which is something neither Du Chi nor the Thousand Demon Sect wanted to see.

Su Chen didn’t just represent one person, but invincibility!!!

At twenty-four, Su Chen could almost be invincible in the Cloud Sword Sect, right? Give him another year or even a few months, who can say he won’t be invincible across the entire Ningtian Continent?

Currently, although the Ten Great Powers of the Ningtian Continent have friction and vary in strength, any of the top sects would score between 90 to 100, with little difference.

And Su Chen is capable of breaking this balance.

An enmity between Su Chen and Cloud Sword Sect would be best.

But now, it seems they want to ally.

Du Chi felt he had to do something.

Directly sow discord between Su Chen and Cloud Sword Sect? Leaving aside the fact that the sect might kill him, even Su Chen would resent him. It’s better to stay a few days, get along with Su Chen, and at the very least, prevent Su Chen from opposing the Thousand Demon Sect, right?

Moreover, He Shoudao and Cloud Sword Sect couldn’t refuse. Surely, they couldn’t say no to letting the Young Sect Master of the Thousand Demon Sect stay for a few days? How would that look on Cloud Sword Sect and He Shoudao if word got out?

He Shoudao deeply stared at Du Chi, well aware of what Su Chen was trying to achieve.

Therefore, he was quite displeased.

Really itching to slap Du Chi to death.

But he couldn’t.

So, after a moment of silence, He Shoudao nodded: "Of course, you can."

In his heart, He Shoudao thought: Du Chi, no matter how well you get along with Su Chen, as long as Little Yu remains Su Chen’s benefactor, the Cloud Sword Sect will be ahead of your Thousand Demon Sect. Moreover, who says Little Yu and Su Chen can’t end up together? If they do, even if Su Chen doesn’t join Cloud Sword Sect, he’d still be considered one of their own, wouldn’t he?

However, despite his confidence, He Shoudao dared not relax. He had already decided in his heart to take Su Chen to the forbidden area of the back mountain at dawn the next day, offer him some benefits, and quickly deepen Su Chen’s ties with the Cloud Sword Sect.

Du Chi’s initiative to stay added pressure on He Shoudao.

"Jiuyou, it seems I’m quite sought after." Su Chen touched his nose.

"What do you think? You have the potential to change the entire power structure of the Ningtian Continent."

"It seems forming an alliance with the Ningtian Continent isn’t that difficult after all." Su Chen nodded.

Soon.

Ji Yu approached Su Chen.

"Su Chen, you... you fooled me badly." Ji Yu looked at Su Chen with a mix of reverence, curiosity, reproach, playfulness, pride, and excitement, sticking out her little tongue.

"How did I fool you?" Su Chen asked with a smile, in a good mood.

Indeed! How did he fool her? From start to finish, Su Chen never claimed to be weak; it was all her imagination based on his Realm.

Ji Yu felt at a loss for words.

"Hmph, you fooled me anyway." After a few breaths, Ji Yu rolled her eyes at Su Chen, though she seemed less reverent and afraid: "Follow me, you’re in luck, Tianyun Pavilion, the most top-level room in the Cloud Sword Sect."

————

Several Shichen later.

Su Chen and Du Chi sat in the front hall of Tianyun Pavilion, drinking tea. From Du Chi, he learned quite a bit about the Ningtian Continent.

Suddenly.

Tap, tap, tap...

Ji Yu arrived, her expression somewhat abnormal.

"What’s wrong?" Su Chen looked at Ji Yu, who had left after bringing him to Tianyun Pavilion and now returned...

"Sister Xingwen was expelled from the sect." Ji Yu whispered.

Su Chen said nothing, as expected.

"I begged for Sister Xingwen, but it was no use." Ji Yu whispered: "Su Chen, do you still blame Sister Xingwen?"

Su Chen shook his head.

"Why?"

"From beginning to end, I’ve ignored it." Su Chen smiled.

"People, the most fearful thing is poor judgment." Du Chi took a sip of tea and lamented. He considered himself to have decent judgment, yet he shuddered thinking about it. If not for his good judgment, he might have died, far worse than Chen Xingwen’s outcome.

"You stayed at the Cloud Sword Sect with the intention of taking Su Chen to the Thousand Demon Sect, don’t think I don’t know that. The Cloud Sword Sect doesn’t welcome you, though Master didn’t have the heart to say it. But as for me, I will. Du Chi, you should leave the Cloud Sword Sect." Ji Yu seemed unafraid of Du Chi as she glared at him and scolded: "Su Chen will not follow you to the Thousand Demon Sect."

"Not leaving." Du Chi shook his head with a smile.

"You must leave." Ji Yu’s face suddenly blushed a bit.

"Hehe..." Du Chi chuckled with a sudden interest: "Let me guess why you want me gone? If I’m not mistaken, you wish to be alone with Su Chen. Hmm, your Master taught you that."

Du Chi hit the nail on the head.

Ji Yu’s face turned even redder.

Her coming back to Tianyun Pavilion to find Su Chen wasn’t solely because Chen Xingwen was expelled. Another reason was her Master, He Shoudao, had instructed her to spend more time with Su Chen.

Ji Yu faintly understood her Master’s intentions, seemingly wanting to facilitate something between her and Su Chen...

Driven by an unknown force, she came back to Tianyun Pavilion, feeling shy and apprehensive.

"Sect Master He is quite the sly old fox!" Du Chi exclaimed, standing up: "Brother Su, I’ll return to my room now. If I keep staying, I’ll interrupt your romantic moments."

With that, Du Chi vanished, having been assigned a room too, though not as exquisite as those in Tianyun Pavilion.

"Ahem..." Su Chen felt a bit awkward.

"Su Chen, I... I, could you teach me sword training?" Ji Yu said, her face even redder.

In truth, she wasn’t so driven by ulterior motives. If it were solely because her Master wanted to build a closer relationship between Su Chen and Cloud Sword Sect and asked her to approach Su Chen, effectively selling her charms, she certainly wouldn’t agree.

But she liked Su Chen genuinely, so she was willing.

Why did she like Su Chen? There wasn’t a specific reason. From Ji Yu’s perspective, meeting Su Chen in the vast Void and saving him by chance were signs of fate.

Simply put, Su Chen was the man sent by the heavens, destined for her! It was just that simple!

"Okay." Su Chen nodded, but then shook his head: "However, teaching just you isn’t enough."
