Chapter 836

There was not the slightest ripple in his voice.

As if this matter were nothing more than a routine mission to him.

In an instant, the crowd was seized by a wave of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Damn it.

The face of an absolute beauty.

Just like that, it was kissed by that thief Xu?

Damn it, right now they wished they could tear Xu Chen's mouth to shreds.

Then give him a vicious beating.

Let him know why the flowers are so red.

But after thinking it over, he quickly calmed down.

Forget it, he couldn't win.

Every single woman around that thief Xu was a violent sort.

At this moment, Zhao Qinglian said shyly, "I love you, Xu-lang."

Xu Chen was speechless. Love what the hell.

It was true that Zhao Qinglian was good-looking.

But he really couldn't be bothered with her, nor did he want to be.

If it weren't for following the plot, he wouldn't even bother giving her the time of day.

Really, he wouldn't spare Zhao Qinglian a single extra glance.

If he so much as looked, he wouldn't be Xu Chen.

With that thought, he said, "Let's begin the next trial's assessment, stop dawdling."

The moment he finished speaking, however.

He felt Zhao Qinglian leaning toward him as well.

Then, she gave him a light kiss.

Xu Chen: "......."

Zhao Qinglian giggled, "Courtesy demands reciprocity."

Xu Chen was completely numb.

Reciprocity, my ass.

It was all your doing.

He rolled his eyes and said, "That's quite enough."

He could already faintly sense Yun Qianyue's anger meter climbing.

As for the others, he naturally couldn't be bothered.

990 But Yun Qianyue's feelings, he would still pay attention to.

Zhao Qinglian said cheerfully, "Alrighty then, let's start the next trial."

As she spoke, she was radiant with smug, eager delight.

As if being able to steal a kiss from Xu Chen made her immensely happy.

She even shot the other women a provocative glance.

As if to say, heh, you lot can't do it.

Seeing this, the women all snorted coldly.

Hmph, little tramp, you're still nothing more than a follower.

Do you really think you're the Dao Companion Xu Chen has acknowledged?

You're nothing at all, and yet you're acting smug—truly laughable.

Of course, they didn't say this out loud.

After all, Xu Chen was about to clear the first trial.

They wouldn't deliberately obstruct him either.

They had their limits when it came to such matters.

"Hum—!"

While they were mulling it over.

Zhao Qinglian quickly activated her Secret Technique.

In an instant, accompanied by the surge of Spiritual Qi.

A Space Vortex appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Enter this Space Vortex, and you'll reach the next assessment point."

Hearing this, Xu Chen stepped in without a word of hesitation.

Because he was very familiar with this scene.

He vaguely remembered that the next scene had three people.

Among them was the female lead.

Her identity and strength were both far from simple.

The instant he stepped into the Space Vortex of the second trial.

Xu Chen's mind began recalling the information about Zhao Fengwu.

This Zhao Fengwu's identity was indeed far from simple.

She was the Saintess of the Demon Clan.

However, because of infighting within the Demon Clan, she suffered the consequences.

She was directly hunted by an Elder of a certain faction within the Demon Clan.

It didn't take long before she was gravely wounded, and then she was rescued by the Zhao Family Heavenly Secret Pavilion.

One can only say she was lucky.

Because the one who saved her happened to be a female Elder of the Zhao Family.

Later she lost her memory, unable to remember anything.

But her martial arts and cultivation were all still intact.

So essentially, she is not really a member of the Zhao Family.

But rather a member of the Demon Clan.

It's just that, up to the current point in the plot,

she has never awakened her memories.

Anyway, if we follow the normal pace of the original work,

she has not awakened her memories right now.

Later, with Ye Xuan's help,

no, to be precise, with Ling Zunzhe's help,

she recovered her memories.

She possessed a Demon Clan Divine Ability, with an extremely powerful physical body.

That's right, the Demon Clan's method of attack is called Divine Ability.

It is equivalent to humanity's martial arts.

The reason it's called Divine Ability is because it is innate.

It's not that the Demon Clan cannot learn martial arts — they can.

It's just that the Demon Clan disdains to.

They believe their own physical bodies are formidable, and they have innate Divine Abilities.

They themselves are the highest class, the beings that dominate all things.

Why should they learn from humanity?

If they truly learned it, wouldn't that be lowering themselves and trying to curry favor with humanity?

Simply ridiculous.
