At the moment he heard these words, Chen Shuo felt as if the sky had almost darkened.
So what he thought was going to be a fun outing turned out to be coming to this place to be a training partner...
It wasn't that Chen Shuo was unwilling, but the skill gap between the two was too large.
If Chen Shuo were to take it seriously, Su Xiyan wouldn't stand a chance. But if Chen Shuo didn't take it seriously, it would be even more torturous for him.
If shopping with women is the greatest torture for men, then this was equivalent to shopping with women.
No, from Chen Shuo's perspective, he would rather go shopping with Su Xiyan than come to this godforsaken place.
"Don't just stand there, hurry up," Su Xiyan urged, seeing Chen Shuo standing stupidly in place.
Chen Shuo was suffering in silence, but what could he do? It was his girlfriend, of course he had to indulge her.
Since he couldn't avoid it, he could only accept it.
Dragging his heavy body into the sword dojo, Chen Shuo began another painful afternoon.
Countless blocks, countless weak attacks, countless dodges.
Although this kind of training was useless for Chen Shuo, it made a big difference for Su Xiyan.
After an afternoon of practice, coupled with Su Xiyan's inherently good aptitude,
By the end, Chen Shuo even had to use a bit of his real skill to win against Su Xiyan.
In terms of combat skills, Su Xiyan's improvement was rapid.
Even though she was only at the Gold 3 level now, apart from not being as powerful as a Platinum Demon Hunter in spells,
Her combat skills were certainly not inferior to any Platinum Demon Hunter.
In this regard, every time Su Xiyan called Chen Shuo to be her training partner, it wasn't a waste.
After a day of exhaustion, they went back, ate something simple, and retired early.
Su Xiyan had also planned a full schedule for the next day, arranging things for the Monster Hunters' Guild on one hand, and for Zhang Chuan and the others hiding in the Su Mansion on the other.
After using the medicine given by Chen Shuo, these people's auras were indeed completely concealed.
Even she, the top Demon Hunter in Su City, couldn't detect the vampire aura on them. If she couldn't detect it, those people certainly couldn't either.
At most, only Su Yuanying and Elder Xu could detect it, but as long as they explained clearly to them, there wouldn't be any misunderstandings.
The next day.
The grand event hosted by the Su Family officially opened, located in the commercial area in the city center.
This place was surrounded by skyscrapers on all sides.
It was the most prosperous and bustling area of Su City.
The place was decorated with lanterns and colored banners, creating a lively atmosphere. The host's passionate voice on stage added to the festive ambiance.
Many onlookers packed the area to the point where it was difficult to move.
Among those attending this time were also some celebrities, whose purpose in coming was naturally to establish good relations with the Su Family.
After all, such occasions were the most suitable for networking.
Everyone spoke freely and drank merrily, and the atmosphere was at its peak.
"Next, let's invite the chairman of our Su Corporation to say a few words, and of course, the chairman's long-time close friend will also join him on stage. Let's welcome the two bosses with our warmest applause!"
Amid the host's loud introduction, Su Yuanying and Elder Xu walked together to the center of the stage.
As the host of today's event, Su Yuanying naturally had to say a few words. After taking the microphone from the host, Su Yuanying's clear voice resounded throughout the venue: "Distinguished guests, hello everyone, thank you for gracing the event hosted by our Su Family..."
While Su Yuanying was giving his speech, Chen Shuo had already taken his position below the stage.
Now he was waiting, as per the original plan, to take action once Elder Xu started his speech.
After all, with so many people present, attention would naturally be on the crowd.
A sudden attack would surely be effective.
Of course, this was just a fake attack, intended as a performance for the Ghost King watching from the shadows.
If everything were too abrupt, the opponent might notice something amiss.
For the sake of authenticity and to avoid any flaws being detected, Chen Shuo came up with this method.
Now he only needed to wait; all the preparations around him were in place. It could be said that everything was ready, just waiting for the right moment.
To be on the safe side, Su Xiyan had started patrolling the surroundings since the opening, to ensure that her arrangements hadn't encountered any problems.
Time passed minute by minute, and soon Su Yuanying finished his speech on stage. Next, it was Elder Xu's turn.
Su Yuanying respectfully handed the microphone to Elder Xu, who, after taking it, didn't put on any airs and said directly, "Hello everyone, I'm Xu Changjun..."
But Elder Xu had barely spoken two sentences when a ghostlike figure appeared behind him.
It launched a fierce sneak attack on Elder Xu's back, sending him flying like a kite with a broken string, landing far away in the crowd.
Many bystanders couldn't avoid him in time and were knocked down.
Cries of pain and screams filled the air. Elder Xu was also quite disheveled; as he struggled to get up from the ground, blood was already trickling from the corner of his mouth.
Chen Shuo didn't stop there; seizing the advantage, he flew towards Elder Xu again.
It was at this moment that the crowd finally recovered from their initial shock, and countless people screamed and fled in panic.
The scene instantly turned into chaos, with unlimited fear occupying the venue.
Fortunately, Su Xiyan and the others had made arrangements in advance, setting up many escape routes at the scene, and most Demon Hunters were at the front guiding people.
It was their presence that brought some order to the chaotic scene. The rapid evacuation also reduced some unnecessary casualties.
On Chen Shuo's side, as he dove towards Elder Xu, the latter had also regained his composure. Chen Shuo's previous palm strike had only used the Ghost King's strength, which, although impressive,
Couldn't be fatal to Elder Xu, who was a legendary Demon Hunter.
As Elder Xu struggled to his feet, one hand forming a healing spell, the other hand formed a circle, and a golden ring enveloped in what looked like holy light appeared. With a wave of his hand, the golden ring flew straight towards Chen Shuo.
Seeing this, Su Xiyan, who was maintaining order at the scene, was dumbfounded.
Dual-casting?! This was a talent that many Demon Hunters could only dream of.
Being able to cast two secret techniques with two hands put Chen Shuo's safety in jeopardy. Although she knew they were acting, Su Xiyan still felt anxious, her palms sweating.
Just as Su Xiyan was worrying about him, the light ring approached Chen Shuo.
Chen Shuo had nowhere to dodge. After a piercing scream, Chen Shuo fell to one knee, his clothes in tatters. Numerous wounds appeared on his body...
iving with nine beautiful women. [Ding! Welcome back to the Joyous Sect, Host…] Lin Yu: ??? I’m clearly in a shared rental, but you’re saying I’m in the Joyous Sect? Watering plants is now [Tending to Spiritual Flora]? Cooking becomes [Researching Elixirs]? Making the bed turns into [Setting Up Formations]? A gentle and innocent auntie, twin classmates, a mysterious hacker girl on leave, a severely socially anxious artist, an elementary school Chinese teacher, a community hospital nurse, a pet shop owner, an antique clock restorer… This system… is kinda interesting.
saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
fe full of thrilling battles, ultimately sacrificing himself to protect his homeland and its people. Unexpectedly, he was reborn into his youth, where he encountered the campus ice queen, Ye Miyue, now working as a masseuse at his family's martial arts school. "How long have you been doing this?" "I-it's my first time..." the campus belle murmured, her head bowed. Wang Xian remembered clearly that back then, although Ye Miyue had not yet awakened her martial arts talent, her outstanding academic performance, breathtaking beauty, and icy demeanor had made her the moon goddess of every boy in school. He was no exception. In his previous life, they had no connection, never imagining they would meet under such circumstances. Sadly, today the city was attacked by an S-class beast, the 'Wind King Falcon,' destroying nearly half of the city streets. Ye Miyue had died on her way home during this disaster. Now, given a second chance, facing the campus goddess of his youth, Wang Xian resolutely decided to extend her session! And so. "My hands are tired..." the blushing campus belle whispered, relieved. Wang Xian pointed to her slender calves and said, "Who said only hands can massage? There are feet too!" "Extend the session, continue!"
