Free Web NovelChapter 2089: Chapter 2089: Admitting Defeat!
"It doesn’t matter to you whether he’s a swindler!"
The girl named Wei’er said.
She thought in her heart, this guy is the woman Sister Pei wholeheartedly likes. Even though his cultivation is a bit lacking, how could he be a swindler?!
After all, Sister Pei is so smart, what kind of person could possibly fool her?!
Seeing that the girl completely ignored his words, the man turned to look at Su Chen:
"Kid, I’m warning you, Wei’er’s status is something you can’t aspire to. You better have some self-awareness."
He had always liked Qi Wei, although there was a slight disparity in status between them, his cultivation, ability, and looks were not lacking. He felt he should still be worthy of her.
But what frustrated him was that Qi Wei seemed to have no interest in him at all. Despite his diligent attentions, he never got a response.
His lack of reaction to Qi Wei’s rebuke was not due to magnanimity but because he was already used to it.
Even though Qi Wei was cold to him, he was not planning to give up, so he was particularly vigilant about any man appearing around her!
Luckily, Qi Wei had always been indifferent to other men, which gave him some comfort.
However, earlier, he saw Qi Wei chatting warmly with a man, which made him nervous and he immediately followed.
But when he saw this man’s cultivation, he felt much relaxed.
Because this person was actually just a Creation Realm, Second Turn kid, his strength too weak. Qi Wei couldn’t possibly be interested in a guy with such low capabilities.
However, considering Qi Wei’s different attitude earlier, he still felt it necessary to warn this person.
In response, Su Chen merely laughed casually, not bothering to engage, although he did take a brief look at the little girl:
"Seems like this little girl’s status is quite something!"
However, Qi Wei’s lively eyes suddenly turned, and she abruptly hooked her arm around Su Chen’s arm, humming:
"Whether I can aspire to him is none of your business, I choose to!"
She said this while snuggling closer to Su Chen, appearing extremely affectionate!
Su Chen was taken aback, then revealed a wry smile.
This girl, isn’t she deliberately causing trouble for me?!
Sure enough, the man’s face darkened instantly, coldly staring at Su Chen.
Originally, he intended to warn the other and let them get the hint.
But unexpectedly, Qi Wei said she was willing!
This was an indirect admission that she liked this kid!
For what reason?!
What could this kid offer in status, ability, that could compare to him?!
If it were someone else, he might think it was a joke, but with Qi Wei, he believed he understood her too well for her to joke about this!
This meant that the matter could be true!
"Kid, let’s have a contest. If you can pass this challenge from me, I’ll acknowledge that you have the qualification to be with Wei’er."
Qiu Xuan shouted, feeling unwilling and unconvinced!
"Humph, do you think I’m scared of you!"
Su Chen hadn’t spoken yet when Qi Wei had already announced.
It sounded as if she was defending Su Chen, but it seemed more like adding fuel to the fire!
A trace of cunning crossed her eyes, she did this for a reason.
Firstly, to use Su Chen to shake off Qiu Xuan’s trouble, and secondly, more importantly, she wanted to probe Su Chen’s depth.
She didn’t believe Sister Pei Man’s long-desired guy would have such poor ability!
Moreover, Sister Pei didn’t just say he did bad things; sometimes, she praised how outstanding he was!
This made her more curious about this man.
Of course, even if his ability was really lacking, she would ensure his life was safe, since he was Sister Pei’s beloved man after all.
But what she didn’t expect was that Su Chen suddenly smiled and said:
"I think you’ve misunderstood. We don’t have anything going on; we just met recently."
With those words, Qi Wei was directly stunned!
What’s going on?!
She merely wanted him to duel with Qiu Xuan to gauge his strength!
But unexpectedly...
He outright admitted defeat!
Yes, although he was explaining their relationship, in Qi Wei’s eyes, it was like he was surrendering and pretending to be lesser!
She was directly furious!
She initially believed that someone so enamored by Sister Pei Man, even if his background was lacking and his ability was lacking, he should at least act like a man and face challenges bravely!
At that moment, she felt deeply that Sister Pei Man wasn’t making a wise choice!
Sister Pei’s eyes weren’t just blind, her heart was too, to like someone like this!
Qiu Xuan and others were also stunned, then soon laughed!
Laughing with joy, laughing with sudden realization!
He did believe the other’s words because if they had long been connected, he wouldn’t have been completely unaware!
Although he still didn’t understand why Qi Wei said what she did earlier, this kid knew his place.
This also counted as perceptive!
"Wei’er, what else do you have to say now?"
Qiu Xuan’s smile was simply uncontainable.
"Su Chen, I didn’t expect you to be like this, truly disgusting!"
Qi Wei no longer retained her earlier playful cuteness, her voice now icy.
Su Chen shrugged with a slight smile, indifferent.
Though misunderstood by this little girl, he didn’t plan to explain, lest more trouble emerged.
...
Meanwhile, on the other side of the canyon, a person from the Moon Worship Sect walked toward the man in the crimson robe with a ghastly expression.
"Why did it take so long to contact them, where have they gone?"
The man in the crimson robe frowned and huffed.
"They...they..."
The approaching person mumbled, unable to speak a complete sentence.
"Speak!"
The man in the crimson robe demanded.
He could already see from the other’s face that something had altered.
"They...they...all lost contact, no response..."
The man finally mustered the courage to reveal the situation.
As soon as these words came out, the other members of the Moon Worship Sect’s faces changed drastically!
Because those words represented such significant meaning!
"All lost contact?"
The man in the crimson robe’s eyes suddenly widened, full of disbelief.
"Yes, I contacted twenty or thirty people, and none of them responded."
The man glanced at the person in the crimson robe and said.
Once the words fell, the Moon Worship Sect’s people were once again shocked!
Twenty to thirty people, none responding?!
How could this be possible?!
If it were one or two people not responding, it would be understandable, but twenty to thirty, not one responding!
This is too abnormal!
Could it be they met a monster?!
Otherwise, how could this be explained?!
Could it be that there’s a super genius among those sect disciples that wiped them out completely?!
Theoretically, this seems the most likely possibility!
But, what kind of super genius could achieve this?!
Besides, they had already gathered data on the super geniuses of various sects in the Cangxuan Territory. Apart from a few who didn’t come, the rest seemed to have gathered here.
Could it be that those sects in the Cangxuan Territory have newer monsters emerging?!
For a time, immense shock and doubt permeated every heart among the Moon Worship Sect...
