C162 Conspiracy
"I was impulsive? If not for him, why would the ten Pure Yin girls Chi Xiao contributed to me disappear? If not, I would have long broken through to the second layer of Pure Yin Arts, and also trained in the Heavenly Yin Annihilation Palm to the Large Success stage. "
"Although this is nothing, with my ability, sooner or later, I will still be able to find ten Pure Yin girls, but that day when Chu Chen killed Yuchuan, it caused me to lose face, and more so when she injured me on Qingcheng Island. This debt, no matter what, must be settled, and it is a ruthless one at that."
"Young master …" The middle aged man still wanted to persuade him, but he was glared at by Zhou Yang, "Do you need to bother with what I do, just cooperate with me."
Being swept across, the middle aged man's heart was startled, he knew Zhou Yang's personality very well, and had just felt the dense killing intent, if he had obstructed her, the one to die might have been him, but he could only sigh inside, and since that was the case, he could only listen to what Zhou Yang had to say, since he was also a servant of Zhou Yang.
"Chu Chen, I can't beat you, but in terms of brain, you can't." Zhou Yang had already thought of a plan a long time ago, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Ever since Chu Chen refined his pill, the news spread like wildfire, causing the outer courtyard to boil once again. As long as it was something related to Chu Chen, it would always be very lively, and everyone would still gasp in surprise when they heard it.
"This freak's cultivation is already strong, but he's actually refining pills to such an extent. How can he still be alive?"
This Chu Chen, after two years, would definitely be able to enter the inner court, and perhaps not even two years. If he were to perform outstandingly in the Outer Academy Martial Arts Competition one year later, he might be able to earn ahead of time and become an existence that was only second to Bai Yuhan. At that time, he wouldn't have to worry about not having any cultivation resources.
Thinking of this, many disciples could only look on with envy, which instead stimulated them to train harder.
That day, Elder Ke suddenly came looking for him with a brilliant smile on his face. In such a short period of time, Chu Chen had refined an Essence Pill, and it was as if he had picked up a treasure.
"Is there something that the elder is looking for me for?" Chu Chen asked with a trace of suspicion on his face.
"I'm here to send you the pill." Elder Ke said as he delivered a transparent green bottle, "Grade four Spirit Pill, Profound Aperture Pill is your reward."
"Fourth-rank Spirit Pill?" Chu Chen's eyes suddenly lit up.
However, he did not accept it. Instead, he curiously asked, "I did not do anything. Why did you give me a reward?" He guessed that perhaps it was because he had refined an Essence Pill that his mood was elated, and he specifically wanted to obtain a pill as reward.
"Have you forgotten that as long as the outer court's Mountain and River List enters the top 30, they can obtain a fourth grade Spirit Pill's reward. This Profound Aperture Pill is your reward." Elder Ke explained.
"So that's how it is. I almost forgot." Chu Chen suddenly realized that when he entered the Academy, he had heard of this rule before.
If one broke into the top thirty, they would be rewarded with a fourth stage Spirit Pill and if one entered the top ten, the rewards would be even more generous, allowing him or her to obtain a fifth stage Spirit Pill. Training Tower s were not restricted to use.
No wonder there were so many disciples who, in order to enter the Mountain and River List s ranking, charged into the Blood Purgatory or challenged the disciples listed. Forget about entering the top ten, as long as they entered the top thirty, the rewards for this fourth stage Spirit Pill were already incomparably generous.
As they were close to each other, even though there was a bottle in between, Chu Chen could smell the scent of medicine, and a hint of energy fluctuations. This Profound Aperture Pill was definitely refined by the Elders of the academy, and its quality was top-notch.
"I'll have to trouble Elder Ke to personally deliver it. Thank you first." Chu Chen didn't waste any words. Since it was what he deserved, there was no need to be polite. He received the pill and stored it inside.
"No need to thank me. With the talent that you have displayed, in the future, work hard and after you enter the inner court, you will definitely soar into the skies. In the future, your status will definitely be even higher than mine. Elder Ke laughed heartily as he spoke. He was in a good mood, but of course, these words were a bit shameful as well, and he also showed a little favor towards his disciple.
After chatting for awhile, Elder Ke said his goodbyes. Just as Chu Chen was about to study Jordan, a disciple suddenly came from the distance with an unnatural expression.
"Chu Chen, this is your letter!" The disciple said calmly as he approached, but Chu Chen had still caught the look of panic in his eyes.
"My letter?" Chu Chen repeated himself, he still wanted to ask who gave it to him, but after the disciple sent it over, he immediately left, as though he knew Chu Chen would ask him that, and was prepared.
In that instant, a sense of conspiracy blossomed in his heart.
The corner of Chu Chen's mouth curled up into a sneer, and immediately after, he opened the envelope. After a short glance, the sneer became denser.
This letter was an invitation letter, and its master, was none other than Zhou Yang.
Perhaps it meant that Zhang Xuan realized that he had made a mistake and wanted to invite him to the teahouse as an apology. There would be a long period of time in the future, and he was willing to be a close friend.
"Apologize? A close friend of the teahouse?"
How could he not know what kind of character Zhou Yang had? Even though he hadn't known him for a long time, he was a ruthless, domineering and arrogant man. And unlike the ordinary second generation, he was an extremely shrewd person who had schemed against everything.
For example, defeating Yue Chuan on the Martial Arts Battlestage was equivalent to slapping Zhou Yang in public. For this grudge, how could ordinary people not take it to heart, let alone Zhou Yang.1
Furthermore, to be able to injure her on Qingcheng Island was a huge loss of face for her. Based on his deductions, not only would Zhou Yang not let her go, he might even take his revenge.
And now, a letter was inviting him to have a chat at the teahouse. There was definitely a trick involved in this.
"But if he doesn't go, then wouldn't he be afraid of him? That's not right …" Suddenly, a cold light flashed through Chu Chen's mind. He was related to Myriad Treasures Pavilion, Zhou Yang definitely knew that it was impossible for him to brazenly fall into the teahouse trap and kill me. Then, why did he invite me there?
Zhou Yang was probably not that stupid.
"Could it be that the reason he wanted me to leave was to lure me away from the mountain?" Thinking about that, a cold light shot out of his eyes. If that was true, then he could not go to this teahouse. Once he went, he would fall into it, but if he did not, he would not know what tricks Zhou Yang was playing.
Chu Chen rubbed his nose, and thought without saying a word. After a long while, his eyes became serious, "Oh yes, I forgot about this, if I use this move, it should be able to bring out the best of both worlds."
At this moment, was comfortably sitting on a chair at the Free City, and casually sipping tea at the Feng Xuan Tea House.
The decorations here were extremely luxurious, the carpets were all made from sewn with the best Devil Beast's fur, and upon stepping on, they were extremely soft. As for the tea leaves used to make tea, they were even more high-end, brought over from far away South Spirit Domain, to the point where they would need a few thousand Low Grade Primeval Stone s each. It was so expensive that it would be shocking, that is to say, a small amount of tea leaves is enough for an ordinary person's need for around ten years.
"Old Quan, how's the matter going?" Zhou Yang asked with a smile on his face after drinking a mouthful of tea. In front of him was the middle-aged man in charge of the life wager arena, who was called Old Quan.
Hearing that, Old Quan immediately answered respectfully: "Reporting to young master, everything has been arranged properly. The invitation letter has already been sent to Chu Chen, even if he doesn't come now, I will spread the news to the meteorites again, and countless disciples will know about it. At that time, even if Chu Chen doesn't come, he will have come as well."
