Chapter 169: Angering Chu Xiu

Especially the formidable strength Su Chen had just displayed made her even more convinced of this point.

This young man in black was not very old, looking to be only about twenty, yet his potential was so immense that his future prospects were bound to be limitless.

Once such a monstrous talent grew up, he would surely become a formidable rival to the Saint Son!

"Could this young man in black be the destiny fated for me? If he truly is the man of my destiny, I am willing to pay any price, even my life."

Bai Zhi murmured to herself in her heart, her eyes shimmering with brilliant light.

On the other side, Su Chen paid no heed to the gazes of the crowd around him.

He had only used seventy percent of his strength in his attack just now; otherwise, how could Sun Kai have left alive?

He had come today to participate in the Heavenly Dao Sect's recruitment assembly, not to fight or kill, so he did not want to cause any deaths and delay the important matter of him and his companions infiltrating the Heavenly Dao Sect.

Su Chen led the three women and walked toward the interior of the Heavenly Dao Sect, intending to go straight to participate in the Heavenly Dao Sect's recruitment examination.

"Hey, wait a moment."

Just then, he suddenly felt a faint call coming from behind him.

He looked back and saw a woman dressed in a long white dress.

The woman's features were incomparably exquisite, her skin as white as jade, her eyebrows like paintings, and her eyes like water, as if a fairy from the Nine Heavens had descended into the mortal world.

She stood there like a blooming lotus, emitting a faint fragrance and delicate scent that was refreshing and delightful.

Her temperament was noble and elegant, just like a white lotus, untainted by a speck of dust.

It was none other than the Heavenly Dao Sect Saintess, Bai Zhi.

Seeing this, Su Chen raised an eyebrow and asked suspiciously, "Miss, is something the matter?"

Bai Zhi looked at Su Chen, her pretty face flushing red, and gathering her courage, she said, "What is your name? May we get to know each other?"

"Not interested."

Hearing this, Su Chen curled his lips and continued walking forward; he did not want to invite any unnecessary trouble.

Although the woman in the white dress before him was very beautiful, any woman he had by his side would not be inferior compared to Bai Zhi.

"Wait."

However, the next second, Bai Zhi called out to him again.

"Just tell me, won't you!"

Saying this, Bai Zhi's eyes shimmered with crystalline tears, looking as if she were about to cry.

She had gathered all her courage to ask Su Chen this.

In order not to marry that hypocrite Chu Xiu, she was willing to go all out.

"Fine."

Su Chen could not bear it, so he could only reply, "I am Wangshu."

He was clearly the type to be swayed by soft tactics but not by force.

However, he used a fake name.

"Thank you, Wangshu, my name is Bai Zhi, it is a pleasure to meet you!"

Bai Zhi's pretty face lit up with joy, and she then politely extended her right hand.

"It is a pleasure to meet you too, Bai Zhi!"

Su Chen smiled and took her clean, slender jade hand.

Bai Zhi?!

Su Chen felt a bit surprised in his heart.

Isn't this that Heavenly Dao Sect Saintess Bai Zhi from the original story?

He frowned slightly and calculated the time in his heart; in ten more days, this Heavenly Dao Sect Saintess would be married to the Saint Son Chu Xiu.

But the Saint Son Chu Xiu was a two-faced person with an extreme tendency toward domestic violence.

When engaging in marital relations, he also liked to play with some strange and bizarre methods—candle wax, SM, dog-slave, Chu Yang knew them all.

But Bai Zhi had a cold and aloof personality and could not accept these novel methods at all; after refusing, she would be subjected to domestic violence by Chu Xiu every time.

In the end, Bai Zhi was cruelly abused to death by Chu Xiu, but when faced with the questioning of the Heavenly Dao Sect Sect Master Ji Yueyao, Chu Xiu bit back, claiming that Bai Zhi had violent tendencies and he had no choice but to resist, accidentally causing Bai Zhi to lose her life.

When he read this part of the plot in the original story, Su Chen had cursed that scoundrel Chu Xiu ten thousand times.

"Wangshu... what are you thinking about?"

Just then, Bai Zhi's shy voice rang in his ears, interrupting his train of thought.

Su Chen came back to his senses and looked down.

He saw that Bai Zhi's pretty face was flushed red and she seemed somewhat flustered; her palm was still held tightly in his hand, not yet withdrawn.

"Haha, sorry, I was distracted just now."

Su Chen gave an awkward smile and hurriedly let go of Bai Zhi's jade hand.

Bai Zhi's jade hand was soft and smooth, and touching it made Su Chen feel a bit restless, but he quickly suppressed this impulse.

He could not afford the slightest carelessness in his mission this time.

Bai Zhi did not mind, gently biting her red lips, and said, "Wangshu, are you here to participate in my Heavenly Dao Sect's recruitment assembly?"

"Yes!"

Su Chen nodded and responded, "We are here to participate in the Heavenly Dao Sect's recruitment assembly, hoping to become disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect."

He did not hide it, as there was no need; moreover, with his current cultivation and aptitude, passing the Heavenly Dao Sect's recruitment examination and joining the Heavenly Dao Sect was as easy as turning over one's hand.

"That's great, this way we can become senior sister and junior brother."

After hearing Su Chen's words, Bai Zhi became excited, her face beaming with a radiant smile.

Afterward, Bai Zhi looked at Su Chen and said with a smile, "Wangshu, and these junior sisters, follow me; I will take you to the examination grounds for the sect's recruitment assembly."

Upon learning that Su Chen and his group were going to participate in the Heavenly Dao Sect's recruitment assembly, she decided to personally lead them inside to avoid any trouble, as Su Chen and his group were here for the examination for the first time.

"Mm, many thanks, Senior Sister Bai Zhi."

Su Chen nodded in thanks, then followed Bai Zhi toward the examination grounds.

However, at this moment, a cold glint shot toward Su Chen's back.

"Saint Son, that brat in black actually dares to dally with the Saintess; he is simply courting death!"

Huang Yang, standing beside Chu Xiu, had an extremely cold and sinister gaze as he incited Chu Xiu.

In the Heavenly Dao Sect, who didn't know that the Saintess Bai Zhi was Chu Xiu's fiancée, and in ten days, the two were to hold their wedding ceremony.

Su Chen doing this had already touched Chu Xiu's reverse scale.

He would surely die without a doubt!

"Hmph! That bunch of bumpkins, they must be some country hicks from who knows where, actually delusional enough to try and join my Heavenly Dao Sect; it is simply a pipe dream!"

Chu Xiu also gave a ferocious laugh, his eyes filled with malice.

"Saint Son, leave this matter to me; I guarantee I will make that little beast fail the recruitment examination and make him roll back to wherever he came from!"

Huang Yang licked his withered corners of his mouth, his gaze sinister as he spoke.

"Good, then I will wait for your news." Chu Xiu smiled with satisfaction, patted his shoulder, and turned to leave this place.

He had long since regarded Bai Zhi as his own possession.

But he knew Bai Zhi disliked him, and it would not be good for him to personally teach Su Chen a lesson in front of her; it was perfect that Huang Yang and the others could step forward to deal with this detestable fellow, Su Chen.

The people around them saw this scene and one by one shook their heads and sighed, looking at Su Chen as if they were looking at a dead man.

"Sigh, that young man in black is finished; he actually dared to provoke the Saint Son's woman."

"What a pity, he looks so handsome, yet he is actually a fool."

"Indeed, to actually dare to openly dally with the Saintess, does he not know the consequences of doing so?"
