Chapter 370 The previous bet
All the way to the front line of defense of Yunyang speed of moving late at night is definitely much slower than that during the day.
Su Chen's night vision ability is extremely strong, but Liu Xingwan's is much worse.
She can see the road clearly, but she has to look very hard.
But it was difficult for her to be serious. Her eyes kept darting towards Su Chen from time to time. She had no time to pay attention to the road.
"Hey, you should just follow my footsteps."
Once again, Liu Xingwan missed a step and almost fell off the cliff.
It was Su Chen who pulled her together so that she could stabilize herself.
Liu Xingwan also nodded obediently.
She followed Su Chen's pace, and if Su Chen slowed down a little, she would deliberately bump into him.
I don't know why she does these little actions.
After walking for a while, she couldn't help but ask again.
From food, clothing, housing and transportation, all the way to the direction of goals.
For Su Chen, his small goal is to let his family live a good life, without having to encounter disasters from monsters, and live a rich life.
A slightly more ambitious goal is to eliminate all monsters.
I and my family have been protected before.
Now that I have some abilities, I also want to contribute to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
However, it seems that the path of cultivation cannot be stopped just because one wants to.
The situation pushes you to keep moving forward.
Liu Xingwan seemed to understand what Su Chen meant.
Just like she is now, if she wants to stop and live an ordinary life.
Then all the elders, hall masters, and even disciples of the Yunyang Sect will be disappointed.
I have gained so much attention and resources from the sect, how can I stop at will?
"Your mother probably hopes that you can stop and live a normal life."
When Su Chen heard Liu Xingwan mention his mother, a smile appeared on his face.
"My mother must be hoping that I can get married, have children and live an ordinary life.
Her requirements for those things were not high to begin with.”
"So what kind of daughter-in-law do you want, mother?"
Su Chen smiled and said, "Aniang and the others, of course, hope that I can find a down-to-earth partner to live with.
As for the rest, there shouldn’t be any requirements.”
Practical, living life
Liu Xingwan's expression was slightly stunned, as these two statements seemed to have nothing to do with her.
I don't know if being down-to-earth in cultivation can be considered down-to-earth.
"Are you also looking for a woman like this?"
When Su Chen heard this question, the image of Qiu Ruoshuang appeared in his mind unconsciously.
There was no answer to Liu Xingwan's question.
"With your current status and position in Tiangang City, there are probably countless women around you who are interested in you."
“It’s not that exaggerated.
As one of the top disciples of the Great Zhou, will many men show interest in you?
We are not fools. We know we are not worthy of each other, but we will not go for it. "
What Su Chen said was true. A woman like Liu Xingwan was indeed beautiful and desirable.
But most people are not worthy of her attention, and it would be embarrassing to flaunt them in front of her.
"So what do you think I should wear?"
Hearing this, Su Chen didn't know how to respond.
It feels like the more we talk, the further we drift from each other.
Su Chen did not answer, and Liu Xingwan did not ask any further questions.
The sky was already bright, and the two of them walked much faster.
In fact, Liu Xingwan still has a lot of things she wants to ask Su Chen and wants to talk to Su Chen.
But Liu Xingwan had also heard from Su Chen about the situations in the wilderness.
Three celestial demons gathered, and many small and big demons went to die one after another.
The earth demons were also constantly patrolling the surroundings.
In order not to disturb the sky demon, the earth demon even knew to be careful and not make any noise.
With all these strange situations happening together, Liu Xingwan knew that there must be big trouble in the wilderness.
This is why the two of them had to travel overnight.
The news must be delivered to the top leaders of the major sects as quickly as possible.
It was almost noon, and the two of them could already see the Yunyang Sect's front line of defense from afar.
I don’t know if the others have returned first.
They were about to arrive, but Liu Xingwan unconsciously pulled Su Chen's sleeve.
“I lost the bet before.
If you have any requests, just raise them, as long as they do not harm the interests of the Yunyang Sect.
I will keep my promise.”
After hearing this, Su Chen couldn't think of anything for a moment.
"Let's keep it. I don't have any idea now."
This answer made Liu Xingwan a little disappointed.
In other words, Su Chen didn't take this bet seriously at all.
After losing the bet, I thought about it for a long time.
I was nervous, not knowing what excessive demands Su Chen would make.
But now it seems that Su Chen seemed to have forgotten everything.
It's not like her at all, thinking about this matter for a long time.
"what ever."
After hearing Su Chen's answer, Liu Xingwan's tone seemed to be filled with resentment again.
This made Su Chen a little confused.
I guess I didn't say anything wrong.
On the front line of defense, there are Zhenren Taiwu, Zhenren Shangxuan, and elders or hall masters from other sects.
They are still waiting here at this moment.
After all, those who entered the wilderness were all outstanding disciples from their respective sects.
They must still be worried, hoping that the disciples of their respective sects will return safely.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Su Chen and Liu Xingwan returned to the front line. Everyone who was waiting here ran out to greet them.
The two of them only realized at this moment that the others had not returned yet.
However, Su Chen was not worried about their safety.
They are much far away from dangerous areas and should not be attacked by monsters.
More likely, they chose to stop and rest at night.
Su Chen and Liu Xingwan had been traveling all night and only arrived at the location at this time.
In front of everyone, Su Chen first explained why the two of them came back so quickly.
Otherwise, the elders around me would be very worried.
Upon learning that their own juniors were only a little late, the elders from other sects visibly brightened in expression.
Then Su Chen began to report the results of his investigation to everyone.
There is nothing to keep secret.
With so many people present, there can't be any undercover agents sent by the monster, right?
When everyone heard Su Chen's detailed explanation, they were all shocked.
“You mean to say that there are three celestial demons gathered in the wilderness.
And they are still upgrading, hoping to become the Demon King?"
Speaking of the word "Demon King", the deputy master of Shen Yin Mansion seemed to tremble his lips.
"I just guessed that these celestial demons were trying to advance. I don't know the specific situation."
Upon hearing this, Master Shangxuan waved his hand.
“No matter why, even if it’s to heal our wounds, we can’t just let these three celestial demons stay there.
Moreover, if they were really allowed to be promoted to Demon Kings, it would likely be a catastrophic disaster for the Great Zhou.
It is hard to say whether we can survive.”
Taoist Taiwu had been frowning, but when he heard Su Chen's words, he turned his target to Liu Xingwan.
Liu Xingwan also understood what Master Taiwu meant.
“Sect Master, everything Su Chen said is true.
And judging by the cautious looks of those monsters, Su Chen's guess should be more in line with reality."
Liu Xingwan was helping Su Chen in both sentences.
This tone made Master Taiwu feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
The middle and senior management of the major sects began to gather together to discuss the relevant situation.
How should we deal with and solve this situation?
If we need to go into the wilderness to fight monsters, who should go?
All these things need to be discussed clearly.
During the discussion, disciples from various major sects came back in groups of three or four.
Just as Su Chen expected, they mainly chose to stay and hide in certain places after nightfall.
In this way, the time of returning will be so long.
Upon learning that Su Chen and Liu Xingwan had left marks along the way, the elders couldn't help but admire them.
Many people praised Su Chen, saying that it was no wonder that the front line of defense in Tiangang City had become increasingly stable in the past two years.
With a disciple like this, it would be strange if he didn't feel at ease.
When Master Taiwu heard these words, he indeed snorted.
"If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the advice given by our Xingwan, right?"
Hearing this, Liu Xingwan waved his hands repeatedly.
“Sect Master, these are Su Chen’s thoughts.
And in the wilderness, thanks to him, I just accompanied him for a trip.
I didn’t do much and almost dragged him down.”
After hearing this explanation, Master Taiwu was stunned.
He even felt that he had heard it wrong. Why did Liu Xingwan say that?
Boosting others' morale and destroying your own prestige?
But the words had already been said, and Master Taiwu wanted to say something to make amends, but it seemed he didn't know how to say it.
His eyes turned to Liu Xingwan, but Liu Xingwan did not avoid.
“Sect Master, this time it’s really all thanks to Su Chen.
As for the rest, I will tell you after I return to the sect."
Liu Xingwan has always been very reliable in doing things.
Since she said so, Master Taiwu did not ask any more questions.
It was precisely because of her words that all the power present seemed to have fallen into the hands of Master Shangxuan.
Everyone around is now waiting for Master Shang Xuan to make a decision.
To deal with the three celestial demons, a conservative approach would require three powerful masters in the state of transformation.
But in order to avoid accidents, at least six powerful people in the state of transformation are needed.
Among them, it would be best if more than half of them are warriors who have reached the perfect state of transformation.
Such a strong lineup has not been formed for many years.
There is really no other way this time. There are three celestial demons in power. How can we dare to go without this lineup?
During the discussion, nine powerful masters of the Transformation Realm were ready to gather together.
Although there are many people, there are only two powerful ones who have reached the perfect state of transformation: Master Shangxuan and Master Taiwu.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were only a handful of warriors who could reach the state of transformation.
It is not easy to find the perfect state.
The warriors are not strong enough, so now they can only rely on numbers.
Since Su Chen has already left marks along the way, there is no time to waste.
Nine powerful men in the state of transformation gathered together and rushed into the wilderness.
Looking at the Great Zhou Dynasty, these nine powerful people in the state of transformation should be able to shake the entire dynasty.
For those who are still on the front line of defense, there is only one thing left to do now, which is to wait.
Liu Xingwan had been standing beside Su Chen. It was only when the people from Yunyang Sect called her that she came to her senses and walked to the side of Hall Master Zhao Li.
But his gaze was still on the other side.
