Chapter 489: Chapter 483 Gu Qiushui (2 more)

"Brother Su has always been very brave!!!" Lan Su didn’t catch any insult in the words, her innocence and naivety shone through as an adorable trait. Her beautiful eyes sparkled as she nodded vigorously, "Liang Tong, let me tell you, my Brother Su is so brave..."

She was telling the truth.

At the Holy Spirit Martial Arts Field, Su Chen dared to fight alone against Xing Nie, Lan Wutong, Xing Gaolong, and others—who else would dare?

Moreover, when Su Chen faced the Ancient Arm Ape in the Dragon Blood Mountain Range, in a situation that spelled certain death, he still dared to fight!

When it came to bravery, Brother Su was indeed the bravest person she had ever seen!!!

"Ahem." Su Chen coughed awkwardly, a full head of black lines appearing on his forehead. Was Lan Su slow to catch on? Didn’t she realize the mockery in their words?

"Heh heh..." Liang Tong also laughed, staring at Su Chen, "Then, I presume Brother Su will achieve good results!"

After speaking, he turned to leave.

But after just one step, suddenly, he stopped, turned his head to look at Su Chen again and patted the back of his hair, "Brother Su, look, I forgot to mention I know the head of Lih River Martial Arts Academy. If Brother Su doesn’t pass the Ancestral Stone assessment, you can come to me, and I’ll have a word with the head of Lih River Martial Arts Academy. I should be able to help Brother Su get into Lih River Martial Arts Academy!"

His smile grew richer as he spoke.

This time, Lan Su understood and immediately became unhappy, her face filled with anger. Just as she was about to say something, Su Chen stopped her, "Alright, girl, no need to get angry!"

Lan Su puffed up with anger, "Brother Su, I’m sorry, I didn’t know Liang Tong was so shallow, looking down on people with his dog eyes!!"

"It’s nothing!" Su Chen was genuinely indifferent, just a stranger after all. If he cared about what every stranger thought, wouldn’t life be exhaustingly difficult?

"How can it be nothing? Hmph, Brother Su, you have to try your best, make him furious! What’s so great about him? Just the Fifth Level Realm of Divine Power, Brother Su, you could beat him with one hand! What gives him the right to look down on Brother Su? And Lih River Academy? Brother Su, you might not know, but Lih River Academy is the worst among the martial arts academies in Holy Spirit City!" Lan Su was still unhappy, muttering discontentedly.

Su Chen shook his head; Lan Su was like a child who never grew up.

Essentially, Lan Su was somewhat like Xu Yaoyao, pure as a blank sheet, one of those who had been overly protected by their elders.

However, even though they were both naive, Lan Su was the kind and adorable type, whereas Xu Yaoyao was spoiled, willful, and bullied others...

Just then.

"Lan Su, come over here, I have something to tell you!" Another voice came, this one belonging to a woman.

This woman appeared to be around twenty, a couple of years older than Lan Su, very beautiful. In terms of pure looks, she was only a slight bit inferior to Lan Su.

Her appearance made many surrounding students sneak peeks.

Clearly, at the Qian Long Institute of Holy Spirit Academy, this woman must have been a highly popular goddess.

She wore a long dress of red gauze, tall and slender, with fair skin, and her eyes glanced at Su Chen, then moved to Lan Su.

"Brother Su, she’s also a student of Intermediate Class 2, my good sister, and we share a dorm!" Lan Su whispered, "Her name is Gu Qiushui, she takes good care of me, she’s really nice. Oh, and she’s the top student in our class, the only one at the Sixth Level of Divine Realm!"

Speaking of Gu Qiushui seemed to delight Lan Su.

"Go ahead then," Su Chen nodded, also glancing at Gu Qiushui, feeling somewhat helpless internally. Gu Qiushui had looked at him earlier with a touch of disdain.

The First Transformation of the Hollow Void Realm was really... not winning any favors.

Sigh.

Everywhere he went, he experienced ridicule, condescension, and disdain.

After all, wasn’t the Divine Martial Continent a Plane World where power was supreme, and influence ran deep in everyone’s bones?

Lan Su didn’t know that Su Chen was thinking all this as she quickly moved towards Gu Qiushui.

"Sister Qiushui, you came too!" Lan Su’s face was alight with a thrilled smile, "Sister Qiushui, that’s great, come and cheer for Brother Su with me!"

"Su’er, don’t be fooled by others," Gu Qiushui lowered her voice, "Tell me, how did you meet him? You’re so naive, he might have approached you on purpose."

"Sister Qiushui, you can’t talk about Brother Su like that, Brother Su isn’t what you think. He’s really powerful, much more so than me, and even more than Sister Qiushui! How could he possibly have approached me with ulterior motives?" Lan Su’s smile disappeared in an instant, she said anxiously, with a touch of anger and the feeling of being misunderstood.

It was Gu Qiushui after all. If it had been Liang Tong or those others she knew but wasn’t very close with, she might have even broken off the relationship outright.

But because Gu Qiushui was her roommate who took really good care of her, Lan Su tried to contain her anger and explained.

"More powerful than you? Even more than me?" Gu Qiushui was taken aback, then laughed, shook her head, and her beautiful eyes lifted to look at Su Chen, her gaze sharp. Then, she walked towards Su Chen.

"Sister Qiushui, what are you doing?" Lan Su exclaimed in alarm.

"Su’er, I can’t watch you be deceived by someone," Gu Qiushui said sternly.

"Sister Qiushui, if you keep this up, I’m going to get mad!!! Brother Su really hasn’t lied to me, he’s truly amazing!" Lan Su was almost in tears, clearly speaking the truth, why wouldn’t anyone believe her?

Even Sister Qiushui didn’t want to believe her.

She felt utterly wronged.

And she felt wronged for Brother Su as well.

But Gu Qiushui didn’t pay attention to Lan Su. She had already made up her mind that Lan Su was deeply influenced and that she must help her.

Lan Su considered her a sister, and she sincerely regarded Lan Su as her little sister as well.

Soon enough.

Gu Qiushui approached Su Chen.

"No matter what your motives are, stay away from Lan Su!" Gu Qiushui demanded outright, a warning tone in her voice as her dazzling eyes fixated on Su Chen, tinged with a hint of coldness.

Su Chen simply smiled, without saying anything. He had overheard the conversation between Gu Qiushui and Lan Su earlier.

He realized that Gu Qiushui didn’t have any ill intentions and was, in fact, looking out for Lan Su’s best interests.

Moreover, since she was a woman, and a rather good-looking one at that, he restrained himself for the moment. After all, the assessment was coming up soon. The truth would speak for itself then!

"Did you hear what I said?!" Seeing that Su Chen remained silent, Gu Qiushui became even more convinced that Su Chen was a charlatan, a fraud deliberately approaching Lan Su.

As her roommate, she knew all too well how naive and kind Lan Su could be.

And Lan Su had a good background; too many people wanted to deceive her.

Not to mention anything else, just deceiving Lan Su meant one wouldn’t lack Mysterious Stones or other Martial Cultivation Resources in the future. It was too tempting for many to refuse.

"I heard you!" Su Chen nodded; he wasn’t deaf. When someone spoke, of course he heard them.

"Since you’ve heard me, then remember this!!! Lan Su is out of your league!" Gu Qiushui made her words even harsher and more cutting.

She wanted to make a definitive statement.

To prevent future problems.

Out of my league?! The smile gradually faded from Su Chen’s face...

"Sister Qiushui, if you keep this up, I’m really going to be angry!" At that same second, Lan Su’s face also grew cold, and she looked up seriously at Gu Qiushui, "Sister Qiushui, although I know you mean well for me, I’m not as foolish as you think I am, and Brother Su isn’t as bad as you say. Brother Su is outstanding, more so than anyone I’ve ever met. I won’t allow you to insult Brother Su like this!"

Lan Su spoke, and as if to express her discontent and show her alliance, she once again hooked her arm through Su Chen’s.
