Chapter 415: Chapter 409 Waiting (6 more)

In the Divine Martial Continent, most women either wore their hair in a high bun or let it down, often adorned with hairpins and the like.

However, Xu Yaoyao seemed like a beauty who had just washed her hair at home and tied it up casually to dry.

It was peculiar to the extreme.

Indeed, a rarity.

"Yaoyao!" The next second, Ling Long spoke, calling out to her.

Xu Yaoyao turned around subconsciously, her dark, piercing beautiful eyes brightened upon seeing Ling Long: "Sister Ling Long, you’re back?"

She was somewhat excited: "Come in, join me for a drink, wait, you don’t drink!"

"Come in with me!" Ling Long said to Su Chen.

Su Chen followed Ling Long inside.

"Sister Ling Long, who is he?" Seeing that Ling Long had not come in alone but had brought a strange man with her, Xu Yaoyao frowned, seemingly a bit displeased.

"His name is Su Chen, he’s my senior brother in the Burning Heaven Sect!" Ling Long introduced.

"Oh!" Xu Yaoyao uttered indifferently, without even glancing at Su Chen. It was clear that she had no interest in finding out who Su Chen was or anything about him.

Su Chen felt a bit awkward, but he had mentally prepared himself for this.

"Yaoyao, my senior brother needs a Fire Seed, a Fire Spirit or something similar. Has the Xu Family auction had any news about Fire Seeds or Fire Spirits recently?" Ling Long asked.

"Of course, there’s always an abundance of Fire Seeds and Fire Spirits!" Xu Yaoyao said nonchalantly.

Su Chen’s eyes gleamed.

"Could you lend my senior brother a hand?" Ling Long asked again.

"No!" Xu Yaoyao shook her head immediately, finally giving Su Chen a look: "I don’t know him, why should I help him?"

"He’s my friend!" Ling Long insisted earnestly: "Yaoyao, please, help him out!"

"Still no, Sister Ling Long, you are my friend, and I would definitely help you if you needed something, but he is not my friend, I won’t help!" Xu Yaoyao shook her head.

Su Chen was already annoyed, annoyed from the bottom of his heart.

Indeed, he needed a Fire Spirit, a Fire Seed.

But it’s not like he couldn’t live without them... It made it seem like he was begging, which was unnecessary. However, he had promised Ling Long not to speak out of turn.

So, he kept quiet and simply said, "Ling Long, let’s go! I’ll think of some other way!"

There was no emotion in Su Chen’s voice, just a flat tone.

He had given up just like that.

Xu Yaoyao was indeed difficult to deal with, and the longer he stayed, the more trouble he foresaw.

But.

As soon as he spoke these words.

Suddenly, Xu Yaoyao lifted her head and snapped, "Who do you think you are? Why should Sister Ling Long leave because of you? If you want to go, leave by yourself! I simply do not wish to help you!!! And now you’re upset about it? Not pleased?"

"Yaoyao, that’s not what Su Chen meant!" Ling Long quickly interjected, somewhat helpless.

In fact, Yaoyao wasn’t a bad person, she was purely simple at heart, but truly, communication with her was challenging.

And Su Chen was an extremely proud man.

When the two met...

Ling Long was a bit exasperated.

"Then what does he mean? He heard that I didn’t want to help him, and he’s asking both you and me to leave! Why should we? I don’t owe him anything!" Xu Yaoyao gave Su Chen a cold glance: "What a piece of crap!"

Su Chen took a deep breath, although he had come prepared, still, he was now angered.

But, being rational, he took another deep breath, forcefully suppressing his rage. After all, Ling Long had brought him here, and he didn’t want to make a scene.

It would be best to walk away.

"Ling Long, I’ll head back to the Ling Family first!" The next second, Su Chen said in a deep voice, effectively conceding.

After speaking.

He turned and walked away.

However.

Just as I reached the door.

"Stop right there!!!" Xu Yaoyao suddenly shouted, "You’re leaving just like that? Hmph, you’ve ruined my mood for drinking. It doesn’t seem right for you to just walk away like that, does it?"

Su Chen stopped.

Turned around.

He and Xu Yaoyao locked eyes.

"Yaoyao, you..." Ling Long panicked, stepping in front of Xu Yaoyao at once.

"Sister Ling Long, we’re close sisters, you wouldn’t let him destroy our friendship, would you?" Xu Yaoyao lifted her head, speaking earnestly.

She didn’t have many friends.

Or rather, just one or two.

Ling Long was among them.

In that same second, Su Chen glanced deeply at Xu Yaoyao, then at Ling Long, and turned to leave again.

To tell the truth.

He was very annoyed.

Not just with Xu Yaoyao but also starting to feel uncomfortable with Ling Long.

Does Ling Long not have a brain? Knowing her friend was such a nasty piece of work, she shouldn’t have brought him along.

Although, earlier, Ling Long had warned him, saying Xu Yaoyao was quirky, but is the Xu Yaoyao in front of him quirky? Not at all! She’s the one with a problem in her head!

"You dare to leave? If you’ve got the guts, walk out and let me see! I, Xu Yaoyao, am putting it out there—if you don’t apologize today, and keep apologizing until I am satisfied, I’ll have you dead!!!"

Seeing Su Chen actually taking steps to leave, Xu Yaoyao’s face suddenly turned cold. She shouted, and the jar of wine she was holding was slammed to the ground.

"Crash..."

The scent of the wine spread through the air.

It was in that instant that Ling Long’s face turned solemn, her brows furrowed as she looked at Xu Yaoyao, "He is my senior brother, just give me this much face! If you do something to him, sister will be angry!"

Ling Long was actually angry as well.

She considered Xu Yaoyao a friend, thought she understood Xu Yaoyao, and believed Xu Yaoyao would look out for Su Chen for her sake.

But she had guessed wrong.

At that moment, she was full of apologies, apologies towards Su Chen.

She was feeling terribly guilty.

At the Ling Family, she had already subjected Su Chen to humiliation, and there was even a close call, but fortunately, Su Chen’s strengths were sufficient.

She wanted to make it up to Su Chen; that’s why she thought of asking Xu Yaoyao to help him obtain the Fire Spirit and Fire Seed. But instead, things turned...

She was biting her lip hard!!! A guilty feeling beyond words!

But, she must stay rational.

What she needed to do now was to prevent the fight from breaking out; otherwise, the consequences would be too severe.

As for whether she stayed friends with Xu Yaoyao or not, it didn’t matter. They could just fall out and never deal with each other again.

But what about Su Chen if the conflict today occurred?

Ling Long was very clear that Su Chen had already offended the Lin Family, and they wanted him dead. If he offended Xu Yaoyao as well, Su Chen would be in great danger.

"Apologize, and I’ll consider giving Sister Ling Long face and let you off!" Xu Yaoyao thought for a bit, stayed silent for a short while, and finally looked at Su Chen and said.

However, Su Chen laughed.

This laugh of his, within an instant, gave Ling Long an inexplicable sense of dread.

As expected.

The very next moment.

Su Chen locked eyes with Xu Yaoyao, his lips curling into a mocking and disdainful smile, and he spoke deliberately, "Waiting for you or the Xu Family to kill me? And you want me to apologize? Heh... apologize to your~~ mom!!! An idiot whose brain is filled with water, if your brain hasn’t developed properly, don’t you~~ freaking wander around causing trouble!"

As his words fell.

Su Chen stepped straight out of the tavern’s main entrance.
