"You dare to lecture me."
Situ Yu glared at him and was about to attack when Su Xue stopped him and said: "He's right, how can you use my sister's safety as a bet? But Situ Yu, you should go back and study more. We can't put our hopes on this strange person. Yan 'er's fate depends on you."
Situ Yu swallowed his anger and looked at Long Chen with hatred and then said: "Well, leave the matter of the dan to me. I can refine the dan in ten days. Long Chen, let's see whose dan can help Princess Yan 'er recover. Goodbye."
After saying that, he didn't say goodbye to Su Xue and the others and directly left. This showed that Situ Yu's status in the devil race wasn't low. Among the younger generation, besides Su Xue and Soyeon, his status was the highest. After he left, Su Xue looked at Long Chen with hesitation in her eyes and said: "Long Chen, my sister's safety … no matter what, I'll leave it to you. If something happens to my sister, I won't spare you."
"Sister, you can rest assured. After ten days, you will see that big brother is a very good person." Soyeon said full of trust.
Long Chen just scolded Situ Yu because of the bet, but this made Su Xue have a good impression of him. She looked at Long Chen again and felt that this guy wasn't so annoying, so she left with relief.
"Big breasts but no brain, you can't become a big deal." Not long after she left, Long Chen slandered her.
Su Xue was so angry that she wanted to turn around and beat him, but she restrained herself.
"Wait until my sister recovers, see if I don't beat you. In the devil race, no one dares to provoke me, Su Xue, humph."
Seeing that Long Chen had angered her sister to the point that smoke was coming out of her head, Su Yan giggled.
"Big brother, you're really amazing. Is there anyone else who can play with my big sister like this? She's very powerful. Other men are very afraid of her. That Situ Yu gege doesn't dare to speak nonsense in front of her."
Long Chen smiled helplessly. After coming here, he didn't want to provoke enemies, but that Situ Yu came to provoke him. This was not up to him. Situ Yu was very aggressive and Long Chen couldn't let others bully him. He just said a few words and that Situ Yu was proud and arrogant, so he took the blame.
Of course, Long Chen only wanted to cultivate and then help Soyeon at a critical moment. He didn't want to go out and fight with Situ Yu. They didn't have a life and death feud, so if there was any misunderstanding, it would be resolved with time. Long Chen didn't want to kill people, and currently he couldn't beat an expert in the 8th layer of the Earth Martial Realm, so he didn't feel any pressure in his heart.
"Yan 'er, you go and play, I will come out in ten days."
After they left, Long Chen also wanted to continue cultivating. Just a moment ago, he was comprehending the 6th layer of the Earth Martial Realm's fist skill. He didn't expect that they would interrupt him. Long Chen was in a good mood, so he was anxious to go back and cultivate.
"Okay …" Soyeon unwillingly pouted.
"Silly girl, if big brother doesn't cultivate, then anyone can bully me." Long Chen said with a smile.
"Then I can protect you, whoever dares to touch you, I will beat them up." Soyeon waved her small fists and said with threatening gestures.
Such a cute girl should live in the world like an angel.
Long Chen smiled. After sending Soyeon back, he immersed himself in the 6th layer of the Earth Martial Realm. Under the guidance of the Martial God's Tablet, Long Chen's strength advanced by leaps and bounds. He felt that he was already quite close to the 6th layer of the Earth Martial Realm.
While Long Chen was cultivating diligently, Soyeon's matter spread through the mouths of some people in the Azure Wood Heavenly City. Now, everyone knew that Soyeon was affected by some unknown person's secret technique. Her body would become old after ten days. Of course, it wasn't that she didn't have any hope of surviving. In the Azure Wood Heavenly City, there were two people working hard for Soyeon's matter. One of them was the well-known alchemist Situ Yu. Situ Yu was the disciple of the younger generation, second only to Soyeon. Moreover, he had the identity of an alchemist, so he was very valued by the Demon Clan. He was also one of the people the younger generation imitated and learned from. His reputation in the Azure Wood Heavenly City was very big.
With him taking action, everyone felt a little more confident. After all, Situ Yu had also done some miraculous things. His alchemy technique was superb and he was quite famous. In the Azure Wood Heavenly City, there was basically no one who didn't like the little princess Soyeon. In these ten days, those uncles who heard about Soyeon's matter came to visit her one after another, making her flustered. However, because of Soyeon's request, no one went near Long Chen's place.
In the end, under Bai Lan's request, no one came to find Soyeon. After all, he didn't want his daughter to be disturbed. During this period, Bai Lan came once. After hearing that Long Chen was cultivating, he had an expression of being expected. After comforting his daughter, he quickly left.
Others were burning with anxiety. Only he, the father who loved his daughter the most, didn't have the slightest bit of anxiousness. This made everyone feel a little strange. Could it be that Bai Lan's confidence in Situ Yu was so great?
While Long Chen was cultivating, Situ Yu was concocting alchemy in full swing. From time to time, there would be sounds of explosions coming from his residence. It could be seen how busy he was.
The news of Long Chen also quietly spread in the Azure Wood Heavenly City. Only then did everyone know that there was actually an outsider called Long Chen in the Azure Wood Heavenly City. He was also an alchemist. Moreover, he was also concocting alchemy for Soyeon. This person's strength was only at the fifth layer of the Earth Martial Realm. The only thing special about him was that Soyeon was brought back by him. Moreover, it seemed that Princess Yan 'er was very intimate with this person. This made many people who had fantasies about Princess Yan' er hate Long Chen to the bone.
Just like that, ten days quietly passed. During this period of time, Su Xue came to see Long Chen countless times. Every time, Long Chen was cultivating and Situ Yu was painstakingly concocting alchemy. The difference between the two could be seen at a glance.
In Su Xue's heart, Long Chen had become an out-and-out swindler. This time, she didn't bother to disturb Long Chen because she already didn't have any hope for Long Chen. During this period of time, she saw Bai Lan a few times. She was worried about Soyeon's matter to the point that she almost vomited blood. However, her father didn't seem to be worried at all. He still played chess and drank with the patriarch of the Lei Clan every day.
On the last night, Su Xue accompanied Soyeon.
"Yan 'er, could it be that you are not afraid of death?"
"I am afraid." Soyeon said.
"Then why are you not crying now? Tomorrow is the tenth day."
"Big brother will save me tomorrow." Soyeon said with her eyes wide open.
"..."
At dawn the next day, in Soyeon's elegant courtyard, there were many more people. All of them were high level members of the Demon Clan. And in the Lei Clan, only Lei Ji had accompanied Bai Lan. Among the high level members of the Demon Clan, there were at least eighth level of the Earth Martial Realm. There were dozens of people crowded in that small courtyard. Each one of them could easily kill Long Chen.
Behind Bai Lan, there were eight elders of the Demon Clan. Each one of them was at the peak of ninth level of the Earth Martial Realm. There were even some who had already stepped into the Tian Martial Realm. They were only one step away from the Tian Martial Realm. However, the Tian Martial Realm was a huge gap. Even if they were only one step away, it didn't mean that they would enter the Tian Martial Realm in the future. It was even possible that they would stay in that place for their entire life. When they truly reached the Tian Martial Realm, it meant that they had reached the heavens in one step.
Of course, many people didn't reach the Tian Martial Realm when they were young. After two hundred years, their muscles and bones would age and it would be very difficult to reach the Tian Martial Realm.
Those high level members of the Demon Clan were all gathered in that small courtyard. Each one of them was a famous existence. They gathered there because they were concerned about Princess Soyeon. Bai Lan was famous in the entire Myriad Kingdom Territory for loving his daughter. Now, today was the day when Soyeon's life and death would be decided. Naturally, they had to come and watch.
If something happened to Soyeon, Bai Lan would go crazy. Who knew how many people would suffer.
Everyone stood obediently in the courtyard. They all looked at Bai Lan who was at the very front. Originally, Bai Lan's face should be very gloomy at this time. They didn't expect that he was completely fine. He was actually talking and laughing with the Lei Clan's patriarch, Lei Ji, who was also in the Sky Martial Realm.
Bai Lan made everyone's jaw drop. Could it be that Bai Lan's personality had changed? Or could it be that nothing had happened to Soyeon? He was just fooling them.
Everyone was puzzled. However, since Bai Lan was here, they didn't dare to talk about it. One should know that Bai Lan was the one who had inherited the inheritance of the Demon God Imperial Emperor. His cultivation base had reached a terrifying level. Even Lei Ji, the patriarch of the Lei Clan, was no match for him.
In front of everyone's gazes, Soyeon and Su Xue were sitting together in a small courtyard. At that moment, Su Xue was tightly holding Soyeon's hand and letting her little head lean against her chest. The two beautiful sisters were leaning against each other. They were very harmonious. It was a beautiful scene in that courtyard.
"Xue 'er has really grown up. Look, she's hugging Yan' er like she's her mother." Lei Ji looked over and joked.
"Go away. My daughter is only in her twenties. In the cultivation world, she has reached the three great martial realms. With her age, she can only be considered very young." Bai Lan chuckled and said. There was no trace of worry in his eyes.
Although at that moment, Su Xue's eyes were about to burst into tears.
