Chapter 273 True Character

Chu Yao asked, “Didn’t you want to know why I call Wan-er big sister, and she also calls me big sister?”

“Yes . ”

“Hehe, in truth, we really are tied together by destiny . That’s because we were both born on the same year, same month, and same day . And most inconceivable of all, we were both born three quarter-hours after midnight .

“So neither one of us really knows which one of us is older, and we just decided to both call each other big sister . How about that? I bet you never imagined that!” Chu Yao held Tang Wan-er’s hand, winking at Long Chen .

Long Chen’s jaw dropped . Were there really such coincidental things in this world? If it was just the same year and day, that was one thing . But the exact same hour and quarter-hour? That really was ridiculous .

Chu Yao and Tang Wan-er laughed at Long Chen’s shocked expression . They had both known Long Chen for a long time, but he rarely had such a truly shocked expression . And so they were both immensely proud of being able to shock him so greatly .

“Fine, I admit I really am frightened . ” Long Chen shook his head and sighed . This world really was crazy .

“Hehe, so when I’m not present, big sister Wan-er will look after you for me . You can’t bully big sister Wan-er!” said Chu Yao profoundly .

“She’s going to look after me? Then wouldn’t I not have a life to even enter the Jiuli secret realm?” Long Chen looked at Tang Wan-er worriedly .

“Long Chen, you’re so untrustworthy… You know, I also have a sensitive side…” Tang Wan-er looked like she might cry .

“Long Chen, you can’t bully big sister Wan-er! Quickly apologize!” rebuked Chu Yao .

“Fine, fine, I was wrong . Lady Wan-er is virtuous, warm, gentle, and kindhearted . I should not have doubted sister Wan-er’s character!” Long Chen’s face really was incredibly thick .

Only after he said that did Tang Wan-er’s ‘tears’ turn into a smile . Looking at those two amazingly beautiful figures, Long Chen’s heart pounded .

One warm and gentle person, and one person acting warm and gentle . And yet both were absolutely intoxicating . If he could marry both these two beauties at the same time, then this life would really have been worth it .

However, Chu Yao’s words about Tang Wan-er looking after him hadn’t been too clear . He didn’t know just what kind of developments had occured between the two of them . In the end, trying to understand a woman’s heart was harder than becoming a god .

And so Long Chen still acted as if he didn’t completely understand what their feelings were for each other . Otherwise, if he were to have misjudged them, that would be extremely awkward .

If it was just awkward, that would be whatever . But if he made a mistake and rushed things, that might hurt their feelings, and then he would really be screwed . So good things had to be worked for slowly .

The two of them were even more beautiful than flowers . Looking at Chu Yao and Tang Wan-er, Long Chen unconsciously thought of another face . Her long hair danced, her skin was white as snow, and she looked just like a fairy who had descended upon a world of mere mortals . He wondered just how she was .

“Long Chen, are you thinking of big sister Meng Qi?” asked Chu Yao gently .

Long Chen stiffened . After a moment’s hesitation, he nodded . He wasn’t good at lying like that, even if he was a bit shameless . He had no choice but to admit that for some unknown reason, Meng Qi had somehow occupied the most important part of his heart .

According to common sense, he had known Meng Qi for the shortest period of time, and so that didn’t make sense . But despite that short period they had interacted, she had given him the deepest impression . Previously, he had thought that the reason she had had such a deep impact on him was because of her beauty, that it had been a kind of worship for a beauty of the opposite sex .

But as time passed, he realized it wasn’t so simple . He felt as if he had known Meng Qi several lives ago…

That kind of thinking was somewhat absurd, but Long Chen still felt it . He felt a kind of familiarness from deep within his soul .

“Who is Meng Qi?” asked Tang Wan-er curiously .

Chu Yao smiled slightly . “Everyone’s already finished eating, so let’s get going . We’ll talk while we walk . ”

Chu Yao pulled Tang Wan-er to the side as they walked alone . Wilde had also finished eating now . Although a first rank Magical Beast couldn’t completely fill his stomach, it would at least give him enough energy to walk without constantly eating .

The next day, they arrived at the end of Skywood Mountain . Skywood Mountain looked like it had been formed by a huge blade cutting apart the earth . The Xuantian Monastery and the Skywood Palace were on opposite sides .

In terms of direct distance, the two of them were less than two thousand miles from each other . But Skywood Mountain soared high into the clouds, and it was impossible to cross .

And so in truth, the difference between their two sects was more like tens of thousands of miles . That was something that made the two of them feel extremely helpless .

Chu Yao reached out and tidied up Long Chen’s clothes . Her eyes were a bit red . Although she knew this would just be a temporary parting, she still wasn’t able to stop tears from flowing from her eyes .

Long Chen gently wrapped his arms around her soft body and pulled her into his embrace, letting her sob into his chest . That was the only thing he could do .

After a long while, Chu Yao finally let go of Long Chen . She also gave a hug to Tang Wan-er . Even Tang Wan-er was crying when she tightly hugged Chu Yao .

Chu Yao was Tang Wan-er’s first close friend . The two of them had only known each other for a short time, but they had already reached the point that they didn’t keep anything from each other, and had long since become sisters .

“Take care!” Chu Yao finally parted with them . Long Chen’s heart felt as if it was being stabbed by needles .

Looking at her fading figure, Long Chen vowed to himself that he would definitely get stronger . He refused to suffer this kind of helpless pain of farewell again .

“Big sister Chu Yao has left, but don’t worry, I’m here to take care of you,” comforted Tang Wan-er .

“You, take care of me? To tell the truth, I really am a bit scared,” sighed Long Chen .

“Bastard, you’re asking for it!”

Tang Wan-er’s hand had grabbed onto Long Chen’s collar before she even finished speaking . She was like a quick mother tiger that had charged at Long Chen .

“Long Chen, do you know how long I’ve been holding myself back? You little rascal, as soon as we leave the sect, you start acting even more annoying . Now your wings have gotten big enough that you don’t even place this faction leader in your eyes? If it weren’t for big sister Yao-er, I’d have long since beaten you up!”

To the side, Wilde and Little Snow were just watching curiously . The gentle and warm Tang Wan-er had suddenly become a fierce mother tiger . They were somewhat stunned, especially Wilde .

As expected, her gentleness was all just an act .

Long Chen had thought that maybe Chu Yao had rubbed off on Tang Wan-er, mellowing out her fierce temperament .

But now he remembered a certain phrase: you could change a world, but you couldn’t change a woman’s nature .

However, to tell the truth, Long Chen preferred this Tang Wan-er . This fiery Tang Wan-er was the real Tang Wan-er .

“What are you smiling about?!” raged Tang Wan-er .

But after she said that, she realized that the two of them were intimately close together now . In fact, she was practically pressing her body into him . She could feel Long Chen’s pulse, and she could smell that particular male scent from his body .

Tang Wan-er blushed, but she still tightly clenched his collar . “Speak . Do you admit your wrongs?”

“I was wrong . ”

“How were you wrong?”

“I was wrong in everything . ”

“Give me some specifics . ”

“I have made many mistakes . But I know my greatest mistake was that I misunderstood the beautiful sister Wan-er . Sister Wan-er is a kind, warm, gentle, virtuous, smart, refined and elegant woman . ” As he spoke, Long Chen also took out a short rod from his spatial ring and placed it on his head, pointing it straight up at the sky .

Tang Wan-er was almost laughing at what he was saying, but then seeing his odd movements, she curiously asked, “What are you doing?”

“I’m just being a lightning rod . ” Long Chen looked up at the sky gravely .

Tang Wan-er didn’t immediately understand what he meant, but then looking up at cloudless sky, she frowned .

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

“According to my elders, if I lie, I’ll be struck by lightning,” said Long Chen solemnly .

Tang Wan-er quickly understood what he was talking about, and she raged, “Bastard, you were playing me!”

Long Chen laughed, twisted out of her grasp, and quickly fled .

“Stop right there!”

Tang Wan-er shot off in hot pursuit . Wilde and Little Snow looked at each other expressionlessly, and simply silently followed behind them .

When Long Chen and Tang Wan-er returned to the monastery, a huge commotion erupted . Whether it was the new disciples or the old disciples, they all gathered to greet them .

In this battle between the Righteous and Corrupt paths, the Xuantian Monastery’s fame had soared . Long Chen had led the Righteous disciples to slaughter Corrupt disciples that had been several times their number, practically creating a legend .

By himself, he had managed to kill a Favored, an eight-tempered Bone Forging Elder, and cut off the leg of a once-in-a-thousand-year genius .

Long Chen had practically become a legendary person to them . And that legendary person had been amongst them, leading them to fight a real battle .

That battle had let all the disciples understand just what was true strength and just what was a true battle .

On the battlefield, Long Chen had led these disciples to be able to face death without fear and kill those Corrupt disciples . That scene of him leading them was forever imprinted in their hearts .

Ye Zhiqiu, Gu Yang, Song Mingyuan, and the other core disciples also came . Senior apprentice-brother Wan also brought the law enforcers to greet Long Chen .

Looking at senior apprentice-brother Wan, Long Chen couldn’t help exclaming, “Bone Forging realm!”

Senior apprentice-brother Wan’s aura was surging out with a powerful pressure . That kind of pressure was something only achievable after reaching the Bone Forging realm .

“Hahaha, it’s all just luck . ” Senior apprentice-brother Wan smiled .

He had originally been at the peak of Tendon Transformation . With his talent, he would have needed at least three to five years to break through to Bone Forging .

But in truth, it would have been normal for him to still be unable to break through even after ten years . That was because as your realm increased, the stronger the bottlenecks would become, making it increasingly difficult to break through .

However, after experiencing that huge battle, after forgetting about the fear of death to go all-out killing his enemies, by discarding all his fear and misgivings, his bottleneck had loosened a great deal .

Just the second day after he returned to the monastery, he had succeeded in advancing to the Bone Forging realm . Of the senior apprentice-brothers left behind in the monastery, he was the first to advance to Bone Forging .

“Hehe, congratulations senior apprentice-brother Wan . Wait, no, it should be congratulations Elder Wan!” Long Chen laughed .

According to the monastery’s rules, when a law enforcer advanced to Bone Forging, they would automatically be promoted to Elder and receive the corresponding benefits .

“Long Chen, don’t make fun of me . Aren’t you afraid of me making life hard for you?” joked senior apprentice-brother Wan .

As everyone greeted Long Chen excitedly, he saw that almost everyone’s auras had climbed a great deal now . Quite a few people had advanced .

And those who hadn’t advanced yet all had unstable auras . That was a sign they might advance at any moment .

“Long Chen, when are you going to bring us out like that again? Fuck, last time really was satisfying,” said Gu Yang excitedly .

Long Chen laughed . He was about to reply when an Elder suddenly walked over and told Long Chen:

“The sect leader is looking for you . ”
