Chapter 731: Chapter 725: I Don’t Believe It (6 Updates)
Because, fundamentally, he never took Su Chen seriously.
Don’t regard the super terrifying strength Su Chen displayed while executing Qin Feiwu and others as anything significant; in Xia Lu’s view, it was all inconsequential.
How could the terror of a Soul Cultivator be understood by Su Chen?
"What deal?" Su Chen’s expression had already soured.
"The Heavenly Soul Pavilion saved your child and your woman, and then, she offered up her own Divine Soul!!!" Xia Lu said emphatically, and the reason the Pavilion Master desired Xia Xi’s Divine Soul was because, the previous Pavilion Master, who was also Xia Xi’s father, had planted a ’Soul Seed’ within Xia Xi’s Divine Soul. Once that ’Soul Seed’ matured, it would become a Soul Tree, and a Soul Tree could make a Soul Cultivator near Undying and Indestructible, potentially boosting their strength by tenfold or even a hundredfold.
Back then, Xia Xi’s father and mother were hunted down precisely because of that ’Soul Seed’.
Su Chen fell silent, but a relentless killing intent had already filled his heart.
This Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Soul Pavilion, deserves to die!!!
"Alright, having said so much, it’s time you handed over Xia Xi, right?" Xia Lu said with a smile, his hideous face coupled with that grin was truly terrifying.
"Although I reached an agreement with him, you have not kept your promise, and now you still want to take me away?" At the same moment, at the entrance of the great hall, Xia Xi appeared; she was still as cold as ever, still with that plain face.
She had always worn a mask.
Always!
Including her visit to the Heavenly Soul Pavilion, even the Pavilion Master could not tell she was wearing a mask.
"In fact, the Pavilion Master has already sent us, his three disciples, here. We were concealed in the air, witnessing everything. Originally, if Young Master Su had not shown up at the last moment, we would have intervened and ensured Miss Gu Yuan and her child’s safety. However, Young Master Su did show up at the last moment, so we did not make a move!" Xia Lu said calmly, "So, it’s not that we haven’t kept our promise; it’s that the appearance of Young Master Su was unexpected, and this accident should be borne by you, Xia Xi, right?"
"Bullshit!" Lan Su, who had come with Xia Xi, exploded with anger. She had seen shameless people before, but none as shameless as this; this was even worse than extortion.
"Little girl, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t just say anything you want. It could get people killed," Xia Lu said, looking towards Lan Su, his ugly smile deepening by a degree.
Meanwhile, Xue Ao and Chen Fu, who were standing beside Xia Lu, suddenly looked up at Lan Su with sinister and flickering eyes.
Lan Su trembled, feeling inexplicably cold.
"Someone is going to die?" It was at that second that Su Chen walked over to Xia Xi and Lan Su, shielding Lan Su behind him. Su Chen lifted his head and looked at Xia Lu, "I don’t think anyone is going to die, heh heh..."
"Su Chen! It seems you want to take on the Heavenly Soul Pavilion," Xia Lu said, not surprised but shaking his head, "You are not bad, a talent. But sadly, your understanding is too shallow. Do you even know what a Soul Cultivator is?"
Su Chen utterly ignored Xia Lu, turning instead to look at Xia Xi: "You foolish girl, making a deal with the devil will only cost you dearly."
Su Chen looked at Xia Xi with a mix of reproach and sighs in his gaze. Xia Xi was truly good, very kind and loyal, even more so than he, Su Chen.
He truly considered Xia Xi his very best friend, but he noticed that Xia Xi seemed to harbor feelings for him, because of the way she looked at him...
Yet Su Chen had to admit that he himself was... common!! Although he wasn’t entirely focused on appearance, he really wasn’t interested in Xia Xi, not at all, at least not for now. Perhaps, indeed, it was because of her looks!
He had always avoided it.
On that day, he went to the Xia Family and rescued Xia Xi just when she was most desperate. She began to harbor feelings for him. Su Chen noticed but did not point it out.
Men like beautiful women, it’s not shameful, it’s human nature. Yet, at this moment, Su Chen felt somewhat ashamed and embarrassed.
Xia Xi was truly a good girl, but he was truly petty. He even wanted to slap himself twice.
"Jiuyou, do you think I’m a real bastard?" Su Chen communicated with Jiuyou, feeling a bit lost.
"You are a bastard, but at least you haven’t lied to her. If you confess to her now, saying you love her, then you are pitying her, deceiving her, which is not what she wants. If one day, you truly start to like her, and can even accept her not-so-beautiful appearance, that will be what she wants, not the current touch, because being touched is different from liking someone!" Jiuyou spoke with gravity.
Jiuyou also sighed, ah! Xia Xi was perfect in every way except for her face, alas, leaving something to be desired! Although Jiuyou knew about Xia Xi wearing a mask, she couldn’t say it because Xia Xi clearly didn’t want Su Chen to know. If she said it, maybe the outcome wouldn’t be good. It’s better to let things take their natural course.
As for Xia Xi wearing a mask, Su Chen had yet to be moved by her unattractive face. Was Su Chen at fault? In Jiuyou’s view, not really. The love of beauty is common to all.
"Jiuyou, you’re right. Maybe, one day I will truly fall in love with this stubborn, proud, and enduring girl!" Su Chen thought to himself.
Xia Xi’s beautiful eyes were fixed on Su Chen, but after a few breaths, she shifted her gaze away.
She possessed an exceedingly beautiful face and even considered her own to be no less than that of Seventh Princess Chu Xuan.
However, she would not remove her mask. What she wanted was for one day, Su Chen to like her, and love her, regardless of her appearance.
Although challenging, she still persisted. This was what she truly desired in her heart.
Even if it was hard, she had no regrets.
"Su Chen!!! Are you provoking me? Are you challenging the Heavenly Soul Pavilion?" Xia Lu’s voice turned chilly, speaking as if Su Chen was completely ignoring him? Good, very good!
"You can indeed think that way, I am challenging you, and again, challenging the Heavenly Soul Pavilion, what can you do about it?" Su Chen turned his head, looking at Xia Lu, expressionless.
"Courting death!" Chen Fu roared furiously, nearly using his Soul Technique to kill Su Chen on the spot, but was stopped by Xia Lu.
"Su Chen, previously, when you were executing your enemies, you also used Soul Techniques." Xia Lu said solemnly.
"Yes!" Su Chen nodded. At that time, he used a wide-range Soul Sword.
"But do you know? In my eyes, the so-called Soul Techniques you used then were like a baby learning to walk, quite laughable. You have no idea how powerful true Soul Techniques are!" Xia Lu’s voice grew colder, "If I wanted to, in just an instant, I could annihilate your Divine Soul, shatter your Spirit Space, send you down to the Yellow Springs, do you believe that?"
Without giving Su Chen a chance to reply, Xia Lu continued, "The reason I’m telling you all this is because I think you’re a genius, with good talent and dense Soul Power. If you join the Heavenly Soul Pavilion, I could take you as my disciple!"
"I don’t believe!" Su Chen shook his head.
"You don’t believe what?" Xia Lu’s voice became even chillier.
"I don’t believe you can annihilate my Divine Soul and shatter my Spirit Space in an instant." Su Chen said earnestly.
