Chapter 119 True Yuan Manifestation

"I know," Xia Qiuru replied indifferently.

Of course, she was well aware of it. How could someone who could willinglly make the arrogant and wild heir of the Yun Family submit be simple?

But what about it?

To Xia Qiuru, whether he was simple or not wasn't important.

What mattered was the person himself, his heart.

After finishing speaking, Xia Qiuru returned to the house, followed by Xu Xinran.

....

Su Chen was driving along the streets of Jianghai. Since it was already late in the evening and it was raining heavily, there were almost no pedestrians on the roads.

Most of the shops had closed, too; only the dim street lights were still on, illuminating the swaying rain strands with unusual clarity.

Su Chen controlled the steering wheel with one hand and smoked with the other, his mind somewhat complicated.

He was somewhat unsure about how to handle his relationship with Xia Qiuru. He couldn't pretend that he didn't feel Xia Qiuru's affection for him.

If it had been the Su Chen of before, he wouldn't be so conflicted. Everyone is a man or a woman after all. Whether it's sleeping together or breaking up, just let nature take its course.

But the Su Chen of now could no longer be so carefree!

Before, he could effortlessly juggle multiple women at the same time, but now, just two women already gave him a headache.

Maybe I really am getting old, he thought to himself.

Just as Su Chen was feeling irritable, he suddenly saw a figure appearing before his car.

The person wore a black Taoist robe, with a face full of deep lines as though carved by time itself.

He appeared silently, as if descending from the sky!

Su Chen stopped the car and got out, his expression somewhat impatient.

He could tell that this old man was no ordinary person. By his estimate, this old man was at least at the Qi Refinement Realm Triple Layer.

"You don't seem surprised to see me," said the old man, his voice somewhat hoarse.

"Are you here to kill me?" Su Chen asked, tilting his head and not paying too much attention to the other.

Now he was at the Qi Refinement Realm Fifth Layer, and the True Yuan of the Nine Yang Divine Technique he cultivated was enormously dense. His Fifth Layer Realm was already equivalent to the Seventh or Eighth Layer Realm of an average cultivator.

"I underestimated your excellency, but if you think you've won, you're sadly mistaken!"

Scholars carry scales in their hearts, warriors carry blades—this is what's known as spirit!

Su Chen's strength hadn't made the elder back down; instead, it ignited his fighting will!

Trembling, he fished out a red pill from his pocket and swallowed it.

As soon as he consumed the pill, his face turned beet red, his body immediately radiating an even more imposing aura, halting even the winds and storms!

Su Chen watched coldly, making no move to intervene.

He had guessed that the elder had taken some sort of pill that temporarily boosted potential, pills that, despite their apparent effects, damaged the bodily functions of a martial artist.

And sure enough, as he had expected, after swallowing the pill, the elder's cultivation rapidly broke through the Fourth Layer Realm, reaching the pinnacle of the Fourth Layer, and even the threshold of the Fifth Layer Realm was faintly visible!

Feeling his cultivation soar, the elder's confidence surged!

He believed that the young man before him, no matter how rebellious, couldn't possibly have reached the Fifth Layer Realm at such a young age.

Because between the Fourth and Fifth Layer Realms there lies a threshold; once reaching the Fifth Layer Realm, one can emit True Yuan externally, which is a feat incomparable to the previous four realms!

"Are you ready to die?"

The elder's hoarse voice rang out again, his deeply lined face contorting ferociously.

"We'll see if you have the ability to make that happen."

Su Chen replied indifferently.

All of a sudden, with a loud shout, the elder moved, a blur darting towards Su Chen.

Su Chen, without moving, simply chopped with his hand as if it were a blade, slashing at the approaching blur.

A crescent-shaped milky white energy wave shot rapidly toward the blur.

"Ah~~"

A scream suddenly pierced the air, and the blur froze before crashing heavily to the ground.

The elder looked down at his abdomen, only to see a deep cut to the bone, a gruesome sight!

"True Yuan released externally?!"

The elder looked up at the young man before him, eyes filled with shock!
