Chapter 578: Shang Hongxue: Your sister-in-law is really strong

Being looked down on, that won't do.

Shang Hongxue wants to prove her strength, let her sister-in-law see how strong she is; she is no longer the Shang Hongxue who couldn't cultivate, nor the weakling who always needed protection.

Nowadays, she is extraordinary.

Clenching her fist, she released true qi, revealing the true qi she had just advanced to the first level of True Gang.

Chen Churan saw this, her pupils trembled slightly, she looked at Shang Hongxue in disbelief and stammered, "When did you advance to True Gang?"

Shang Hongxue saw this, very satisfied with Chen Churan's attitude; that's right, besides Chuyang brother, she is the second person who knows her cultivation—how could she not be shocked? After training so hard, isn't it for this moment?

Clenching her fist, she waved true qi, the True Gang realm, incredibly real.

Shang Hongxue enjoyed Chen Churan's admiring gaze; as a sister-in-law, she must have the dignity of a sister-in-law.

Strength is the extension of dignity; with strength, dignity naturally follows.

"Do you still think I can't help you, Sister Churan?"

"Your sister-in-law I am invincible under heaven; with me here, no one can bully you."

Chen Churan quickly recovered from shock, bitterly shaking her head: "Sister-in-law, although the True Gang realm is strong, your cultivation has risen quickly; frankly, I was frightened by your cultivation, but it's useless."

"The True Gang realm is nowhere near enough; for this matter, besides my second brother, no one can help me."

"When will my second brother leave seclusion?"

"She didn't say what it was, she just kept asking Chen Chuyang when he would leave seclusion."

Shang Hongxue frowned: "True Gang isn't enough? Then what about him?"

She pointed a finger, pointing at Ghost King Zhuge Gui; Zhuge Gui saw this, stood up, clenched his fist, grinning with bared teeth.

Now is the time for him to perform; he must perform well—maybe Chen Chuyang will give him more good stuff, wouldn't that be a huge gain?

"Ghost King?"

"Can he obey you?"

Shang Hongxue proudly said: "Naturally he obeys; he is very obedient, I tell him to do something and he does it, Sister Churan, what have you encountered? Tell your sister-in-law, I'll help you resolve it."

"She can't, but she has helpers."

"On Longshe Shan there isn't much else, just a lot of thugs."

"If really necessary, let Heishanyang act; it will surely think of a solution."

"Chuyang brother said before, when encountering something you don't understand or can't deal with, you can ask Heishanyang."

Chen Churan showed a smile, but she still shook her head.

"Sister-in-law, Ghost King Zhuge Gui is very strong; I also know you want to help me, but this time is different."

"This time is dangerous; they can't handle it."

Shang Hongxue's brows locked tight; even Ghost King Zhuge Gui can't help—looks like it's truly a tough problem.

"Sister Churan, could it be that you've betrayed the Spirit Sword Sect and are being hunted by them?"

Chen Churan raised her head, shook it, then nodded.

"Sister-in-law, no, I haven't betrayed; my master encountered trouble and needs my second brother to save his life."

"Your master?"

Shang Hongxue frowned: "Elder Xinran is so strong; few could threaten her; Chuyang brother said before, as long as she isn't courting death, she basically won't be in danger."

"Besides, your master isn't in the Spirit Sword Sect? How could there be danger inside the Spirit Sword Sect?"

"Sister Churan, could it be that you've over-cultivated and are having hallucinations?"

"Although the Spirit Sword Sect is not as good as the Heavenly Heart Sect, its overall strength is not bad either."

"This is the world's second-largest sect; its strength surpasses that of the Yin Gui Sect."

"Besides the Heavenly Heart Sect, no other force can threaten them."

"Unless."

"Sister-in-law, I have no problems; my cultivation is fine, there's not a single issue."

"Mainly, this matter is difficult; I really have no way, so I came down the mountain to find my second brother."

Shang Hongxue anxiously asked: "Just tell me what the matter is; if you don't say, how can I help you?"

Chen Churan never said anything, speaking in riddles the whole time.

Shang Hongxue wanted to help but couldn't.

Chen Churan fell silent.

After a quarter of an hour.

Chen Churan gritted her teeth, leaned close to Shang Hongxue's ear, and whispered softly.

"The matter is like this, sister-in-law; do you understand my predicament now?"

Chen Churan gave a bitter smile; it's not that she won't speak, but that she can't.

"The fewer people who know about this matter, the better."

"Especially the sister-in-law; she knows the second brother cares deeply for this sister-in-law, but can't bear to see her in danger."

"She also wouldn't act on her own, taking the sister-in-law away from Longshe Shan—too dangerous."

"If the sister-in-law comes to harm, the second brother will surely beat her."

Shang Hongxue rubbed her temples; her head ached.

"Your matter indeed only your second brother can help you; others can't."

"It's just that you came at a bad time; your second brother is in seclusion and won't come out quickly."

"Or else, wait a bit; anyway, so many days have passed, your master probably won't encounter trouble."

Chen Churan urged: "Sister-in-law, can you?"

Shang Hongxue shook her head: "No, I can't enter the place where your second brother is in seclusion."

Cultivation can be big or small; you should still wait a moment.

Chen Churan lowered her head, her eyes filled with tears.

Her master treated her very well; now that her master has run into trouble, she surely wants to save her master.

She doesn't know her master's condition; she wants to rescue her master as soon as possible, so that her master will suffer a bit less.

If the rescue fails and her master is killed, wouldn't that be...?

"My master, her?"

"Don't worry, Lingjian Zhenren doesn't dare to deal a killing blow to your master; since he didn't kill her at the outset, it shows he has some misgivings."

"As for you, you don't need to worry too much; calmly wait for your second brother to come out of seclusion."

"I..."

Chen Churan lowered her head; she could only do this, there was no other way.

Shang Hongxue waved her hand, letting Ghost King Zhuge Gui continue to watch.

By the way, have him watch the outside; as soon as any situation arises, notify her immediately.

Ghost King Zhuge Gui nodded, carrying out the task earnestly.

Heishanyang shifted its body, glanced at Chen Churan, and paid no heed to their conversation at all.

"The Spirit Sword Sect is also in chaos; this is just what Chen Chuyang's kid predicted has indeed happened."

"The Heavenly Heart Sect, the Spirit Sword Sect, and the Yin Gui Sect—let this world fall into chaos."

"However, I didn't expect that woman to be so formidable, actually going to look for trouble."

Regarding some matters of Xinran Zhanglao, Heishanyang knows a bit; that woman's physical problem is not due to cultivation issues, but someone wants her to have problems, preventing her from cultivating normally.

Xinran Zhanglao has a violent temper; as a sword cultivator, she cannot tolerate the slightest grievance and does not know how to lie low.

In this regard, she needs to learn well from that brat Chen Chuyang.

Once her body recovers, she can cultivate in peace; when her strength is sufficient, she can then go look for trouble—wouldn't that be better?

"Chen Chuyang's kid is in seclusion; he won't come out quickly, and even if he does, he won't rush to the Spirit Sword Sect."

"Within the Spirit Sword Sect, there is a situation; people from Tianwai likely have taken control of the Spirit Sword Sect."

"Lingjian Zhenren, however, is an old undying contemporary of the Heavenly Heart Sect's old ghost."
