Chapter 277

The two gritted their teeth and slowly retreated.

After finishing this, Ling Qingyan looked at Xu Chen: "Did I do well?" Her tone carried a hint of seeking praise.

As if saying, Compliment me, compliment me.

Xu Chen looked utterly baffled: Sister, do we even know each other?

He blinked in shock, then muttered: "Uh, pretty good." Upon hearing this, Ling Qingyan smiled, breathtakingly beautiful: "Good." Everyone stared, dumbfounded: What the hell!

So you saved the Dark Dragon Palace just to win Xu Chen's favor?

Fuck, this is insane!

PS: 1st chapter!!

Everyone was stunned! (2nd chapter!!! Please)

Everyone was confused, and Xu Chen was confused too.

In short, both sides felt utterly bewildered, because this wasn't like Ling Qingyan.

In Xu Chen's memory, this woman was also highly skilled at scheming—even more so than Luo Qianshang.

Every single thing she did had a purpose.

Sometimes, when she appeared to save someone, her real intent was to kill.

So now Xu Chen winced in pain—what the hell is this girl up to?

Similarly, after their initial shock, those from the Dark Dragon Abyss quickly recovered.

They wore strange expressions—was Ling Qingyan planning to kill Xu Chen?

Gongsun Piaomiao couldn't help but say: "Master, Xu Chen hasn't wronged you, has he?" Everyone winced—even Gongsun Piaomiao believed Ling Qingyan intended to kill Xu Chen.

They figured Ling Qingyan was now truly about to act.

Instantly, a hint of mockery and sarcasm curled on everyone's lips.

Then they grinned, watching Xu Chen: When Ling Qingyan strikes, let's see how you dodge.

Xu Chen thought back: In his past life, during this major plot point, Ling Qingyan had protected Ye Xuan.

Then she waged war against the Four Great Sects of the Immortal Pavilion, killing all their Sect Masters and patriarchs.

At that moment, Luo Qianshang and others turned pale—but dared not utter a word.

Because Ling Qingyan's strength was simply too overwhelming.

As for Xu Chen himself, he had been secretly observing, hoping to gain some advantage.

As a result, his already-broken leg was shattered again—this time, his left arm.

At that time, he had only his right hand left.

This was the fate of a villain.

Hearing Gongsun Piaomiao's words, Ling Qingyan blinked in surprise: "No." Gongsun Piaomiao immediately asked: "Then why are you trying to kill Xu Chen?" Ling Qingyan narrowed her eyes: "Who said I'm going to kill him?" Gongsun Piaomiao grew even more panicked: "Then are you going to toy with him?" He thought, given his master's nature, she could absolutely do such a thing. Ling Qingyan: "..."

Ling Qingyan then chuckled: "I'd love to toy with him, but Xu Chen probably wouldn't agree." Gongsun Piaomiao: "..." Xu Chen: "..."

Damn, this is terrifying—stay far away from women like this!

These wolfish words are unbearable.

Everyone was numb—this Immortal of Wu Chen really dares to say such things!

But the Immortal of Wu Chen always had this intimidating personality; no one dared speak up.

Luo Qianshang merely clicked his tongue: Judging by the Immortal of Wu Chen's tone, Xu Chen is definitely in trouble.

They said so all along—how could this woman help Xu Chen for no reason? It's absurd.

Xu Chen sighed: "Immortal of Wu Chen, I advise you not to harbor any improper thoughts toward me—you couldn't pull it off anyway."

"Look at these nine girls beside me—each one is a Saint-level cultivator, including your disciple." "What the hell! All of them are Saints?"

Xu Chen's words, left unsaid, were fine—but once spoken, everyone froze in shock.

Jing Lian and Gongsun Piaomiao aside—they already knew.

But the seven you originally had beside you—are also Saints?

Holy shit, this is insane!

Upon hearing this, Bu Fengshuang said not a word—she simply flicked her finger, releasing a Saint-grade Array Pattern.

Yi Bingrou trembled slightly; countless frostflakes descended from the sky, causing everyone to shiver involuntarily.

Ling Huang, An Ling, and Qing Ling were wreathed in deathly aura, like malevolent spirits of heaven and earth, their presence terrifying beyond measure.

Shangguan Luoyun and Li Ruoling's surroundings hummed with swords—Sword Qi surged, Sword Intent thick and heavy.

Each Sword Qi radiated Saint-grade authority; space cracked and shattered—immensely powerful.

The seven women radiated such overwhelming power solely to tell Ling Qingyan one thing: With us here, don't even think about touching Xu Chen. "Holy shit, seven Saint-level beings."

"And on top of that, each one is stunningly beautiful, breathtakingly gorgeous—this is just insane."

"Yeah, for women this beautiful, you'd struggle to find five in the entire Dark Dragon Abyss."

"How many good deeds did Xu Chen do in his past life? How many incense sticks did he burn to have so many gorgeous beauties at once!"

Instantly, many in the Dark Dragon Abyss who didn't know Xu Chen felt envy, jealousy, and rage. They could understand him being lucky enough to find beautiful women—but for them to be this powerful and this beautiful? Fuck, they simply couldn't comprehend it.

Could Xu Chen possibly be the legendary Son of Luck, naturally drawing women to him?

Xu Chen rubbed his temples: "Stop saying nonsense—none of them are mine." He coughed and refused: "Enough. Immortal, I said today I'll protect the Dark Dragon Palace."

"If you're pretending to help while secretly planning to kill me and seize the resources, don't bother—you can just leave." His tone was blunt and unyielding.

He was glad Ling Qingyan hadn't gone mad—but he wouldn't back down either.

He said he'd protect the Dark Dragon Palace—he would protect it.

Seeing this, Ling Qingyan stomped her jade foot, gritting her teeth: "I helped you, and you still talk like this?"

Xu Chen was utterly confused—he hadn't said anything.

Your image in the original text is that of an old fox, and you even broke my damn hand.

His current reaction is perfectly normal, alright.

If one were to blindly believe you, Ling Qingyan, that would be what's abnormal.

Xu Chen was stunned, looked toward Gongsun Piaomiao and said, "Was what I said wrong?" Gongsun Piaomiao replied, "Seems like there's no problem."

She also understood Ling Qingyan quite well, so if her master wanted to kill Xu Chen, she would definitely stand on Xu Chen's side. Hearing this, Xu Chen shrugged his shoulders, looked at Ling Qingyan and said, "Fairy, you heard it too, I have no grudge or grievance with you.

If the Dark Dragon Hall has any past enmity with you, I think we can bury the hatchet. There's no need to escalate it to a life-and-death level, what do you think?" At this moment he really didn't want to fight this woman, because this woman was not only a Three Turns Martial Saint, which was very troublesome. But before he could think further, after Ling Qingyan finished listening, a layer of mist suddenly appeared in her eyes: "You... do you really hate me that much?"

Xu Chen: "..."

Damn, what's this situation.

We were talking and suddenly she started crying—is it a scheme, or does she really want to cry?

For a moment, Xu Chen was a bit dumbfounded.

The surrounding crowd was also dumbstruck.

The dignified Sect Master of the Piaomiao Sacred Sect is actually crying because of some words from Xu Chen?

Damn, is this reasonable?

Outrageous, they still felt it was utterly absurd!

Everything today is damn outrageous!!!
