Under the warm afternoon sun, Yan Chutian was quietly sitting cross-legged by the stone table outside the cave. However, he wasn't cultivating right now. Instead, it was more like he was taking a nap, enjoying the warm sunlight.
After sitting quietly for a long time, a familiar aura suddenly approached from afar. Yan Chutian opened his slightly closed eyes and caught a glimpse of the approaching figure. It was Dong Puti, whom he had cooperated with that day and made an agreement with.
The girl's slightly tanned skin was suffused with a sparkling luster under the sunlight. An ordinary female cultivator would definitely find it extremely difficult to pull off such a complexion. If there was even the slightest flaw, she would be labeled as ugly. However, Dong Puti did not have such a feeling. Her tanned skin instead gave her a peculiar beauty, just like a little wild cat that made one want to tame her.
"You seem to be in the mood. There are only three days left until the Chosen Disciple Selection, and you're actually still lazing around in the sun here?"
Dong Puti landed on one side of the stone table, her jade-like hands on her waist as she looked down at Yan Chutian from above.
"Don't tell me you already know something, and are planning to give up?"
Yan Chutian glanced at the girl again, thinking that she was really quite wild. Even her casual words carried a hint of provocation.
However, Yan Chutian was not going to argue over such words. He directly smiled and said, "Senior sister Dong must be joking. However, one must know how to strike a balance between work and rest. After training bitterly for some time, one naturally needs to relax to a certain extent."
"Oh, so you're saying that you're well prepared?"
Dong Puti gave a strange smile as she gently sat down on the stone bench. Her hands supported her cheeks as her beautiful eyes stared at Yan Chutian like crescent moons. She giggled and said, "Then you better be prepared. The situation I'm about to talk about is not small. I don't know if your preparations will be able to handle it."
"Lu Yang already knows that it was me, Dong Puti, and you, Yan Chu, who took away the thousand year essence flame that he had been painstakingly searching for. Although he can't do anything on the surface, he has already secretly said that if either of us dares to participate in the Chosen Disciple Selection, he will definitely make us suffer a miserable defeat. "
"As for Lu Yang's ruthless words, Qin Yi also responded as expected."
Yan Chutian did not reply, and continued to quietly look at Dong Puti's beautiful face. Dong Puti had already mentioned this before, so it was already expected. However, if it was just this, she would not have come all the way here.
Not letting Yan Chutian wait for too long, Dong Puti paused for a moment before continuing, "The actions of these two people are within expectations, but in addition to these two people, there is another Chosen who seems to have secretly spoken against you."
....
....
.... who?...
.....
"What?!"
Even Yan Chutian could not help but be shocked for a moment. Xu Jian was a top figure amongst the Chosen, and even ordinary Chosen felt inferior to him. However, he had never met such a guy before, so why would he suddenly say something against him?
He was clearly using the thousand-year essence flame as an excuse to speak up for some other reason. But what could that be?
Yan Chutian was puzzled. At this moment, Dong Puti seemed to know something and hesitated.
Yan Chutian could not help but look over and ask in surprise, "What do you know?"
Dong Puti no longer hesitated at Yan Chutian's question and directly said, "Then you have to tell me first. Were you and your senior sister brought back to the Sect by Elder Han Chen, who has been missing for a hundred years?"
"Yes."
Yan Chutian answered without hesitation. There was nothing to hide. Even if it was a secret that only a few people knew, he was already prepared to let everyone know.
When Yan Chutian confirmed, Dong Puti revealed a look of understanding and said, "That explains it."
"Before Elder Han disappeared, the disciples under him were the greatest hope of the Southern Region. Even Luo Qingyi's faction was defeated by him."
"You know what happened after that. Elder Han suddenly disappeared, and his disciples gradually withered until they were completely cut off. Today, Elder Luo's disciple, Luo Xue, is the number one disciple of the Southern Region. Not only is Luo Xue's cultivation incomparably powerful, she also possesses a beautiful appearance and figure that countless women are envious of. Some people like Xu Jian naturally want to curry favor with her, dreaming of using this opportunity to get close to her. "
"I see."
At this moment, Yan Chutian finally understood. After all this time, Xu Jian was trying to win Luo Xue's favour. Since Han Chen only had him and Muwan under him, and because of the Thousand Year Essence Flame, he would naturally make things difficult for him.
However, because of this, Yan Chutian could not help but look down on Xu Jian. Using others to please a girl was really shameless. It was fine if Luo Xue ignored him, but if she did, she would be just as bad as Xu Jian.
"How is it? Three Saints have spoken so harshly to you. Don't you feel honored?"
Dong Puti said again. Although she sounded like she was teasing him, there was a strong sense of oppression. With so many obstacles, she thought that she would not be able to participate in the Saint selection this time.
However, Yan Chutian did not answer her question. Instead, he asked, "Senior Sister Dong, do you regret helping me get the Thousand Year Essence Flame?"
"Hmph! Don't look down on me, Dong Puti. I'm not the kind of person who regrets something! "
Dong Puti immediately snorted, as if Yan Chutian was slandering her.
Yan Chutian could not help but smile. He lifted his eyes and looked in a certain direction. It was the place where the Saint selection would be held three days later.
"Senior Sister Dong, since you don't regret it, I, Yan Chu, will also guarantee that those guys won't be able to take advantage of us this time!"
Sensing the determination in Yan Chutian's words, Dong Puti did not know why, but she actually felt a sense of trust in him. It was as if with this guy, the huge resistance from the three Saints was nothing.
But of course, Dong Puti would not voice out this inexplicable feeling. Instead, she stuck out her tongue and snorted, "Pei, nonsense. With so many prospective Chosen Saints blocking the way, apart from a Yuan Dan Stage Chosen, who would be able to escape?!"
"Haha …"
Yan Chutian did not say much. If it was ten days ago, he might really feel a lot of pressure. However, it was already ten days later, so the situation was different.
At the same time, a clear voice suddenly sounded from a certain direction, causing the two of them to look over at the same time.
"Just as this guy said, those guys won't be able to take advantage of us!"
"You are …?"
Dong Puti was shocked. Why did such a beautiful woman suddenly appear here? Even she felt a little ashamed. She felt that only Luo Xue could compare to her.
Mu Wan was very calm in the face of Dong Puti's question. She looked at Yan Chutian and slowly said, "Let him tell you."
