"Oh, that's because my cultivation method is a little special, so it's a little different from ordinary cultivators." Xiao Chen raised his brows and said unhurriedly, "That's why not only did I level up as fast as a rocket, my strength was also several times stronger than ordinary cultivators!"
Xiao Chen recalled those difficult days. Although he had to worry about the money for medicine every day and had to think of ways to make money from his business, he was actually quite happy.
"Tch, you're getting more and more excited as you speak!" Hong Zhu couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw Xiao Chen's smug expression.
"I'm not bragging." Xiao Chen spread his hands innocently and said, "Just look at how the Qin family is treating me now, and you'll know that I'm telling the truth!"
Hong Zhu was infuriated by Xiao Chen's boastful behavior. He jumped off his chair and ran to him to interrogate, "Tell me the truth! At that time, I even specially secretly investigated the people of your Xiao Clan. You yourself are trash that can't cultivate, and your family members are all ordinary Martial Cultivators. Even if you go back eight generations of your ancestors, there hasn't been a single Immortal Cultivator. Where did you get the Immortal Cultivation Method? That unique cultivation method that's like a rocket, where did you steal it from? "
"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean I stole it? Do you even know how to talk? " Xiao Chen glared at Hong Zhu with a very discontented expression, and said in a high-spirited manner, "This Young Master's cultivation technique … it really fell from the sky, okay? It just so happened to fall on this young master's head and was picked up by a good-for-nothing like me. My luck is just that good, it's so good that it's bursting. What can I do? "
In order to match his words, Xiao Chen even flipped his hair and made an expression that said, "I'm just that confident."
Seeing Xiao Chen's arrogance, Hong Zhu couldn't help but gnash his teeth in anger. He bent down and reached out to grab the tender flesh on Xiao Chen's waist, then fiercely twisted it 360 degrees.
"Don't keep us guessing. Who would believe your nonsense? Do you really think that I'm a naive little girl who's so easily fooled? " As Hong Zhu pinched him, he snapped, "Stop making up stories. Hurry up and tell me the truth!"
"Hiss — — Ouch, ouch, ouch …" Xiao Chen sucked in a breath of cold air as he was pinched by Hong Zhu, a look of pain immediately appearing on his face. After all, without the support of Yuan Qi, his body was not much different from an ordinary person, except for being a little stronger.
Although Xiao Chen was already a master of the Profound Ascending Stage, he still trusted Hong Zhu very much, so he did not take any precautions. Hong Zhu's sudden attack directly succeeded.
"What do you think? Do you know how powerful I am now? " When Hong Zhu saw the expression on Xiao Chen's face, his mood became much better. He smiled and said, "Why don't you hurry up and say it? Otherwise, next time I won't pinch this place, but … heh heh heh! "
Hong Zhu glanced at a certain sensitive part of Xiao Chen's body, and a strange evil smile suddenly flitted across his lips. She released the flesh on Xiao Chen's waist, then slowly stretched out her slender jade hand.
"Cough cough, that's enough, that's enough. As the saying goes, men and women should not touch each other. Don't push your luck!" Xiao Chen jumped in fright and hurriedly grabbed Hong Zhu's hand to stop her from advancing.
Xiao Chen thought that this little witch was usually very tough, and would certainly do what she said. He had never been able to gain any advantage from her hands!
"If you don't want me to go too far, then you'd better tell me the truth, otherwise … heh heh, you know!" Hong Zhu saw Xiao Chen's panic and could not help but burst into laughter. She turned around and sat back in her chair, holding her chin and looking at him expectantly.
"Alright, I really don't know what to do with you." Xiao Chen shook his head helplessly, sat up a little straighter, and explained in simple terms, "It's like this, I was still in high school in Songning City at the time. One day, I was in a bad mood because of some family matters, so I went to a mountain in the suburbs to relax. As a result, I accidentally walked to the edge of a cliff …"
Following that, Xiao Chen recounted how he had been plotted against, kicked down the cliff, and then coincidentally had a fortuitous encounter.
However, Xiao Chen still deliberately concealed the matter of the Elder Heaven Ancestor, and instead made up a story, saying that he had coincidentally fallen into a cave halfway up the mountain. Not only was he not injured, but he had also found a cultivation method inside the cave, as well as a pill that could increase one's power. After taking them, he had broken through the barrier that prevented him from cultivating, and successfully advanced to become an immortal cultivator.
Later on, he had used the power he had just obtained to smoothly climb out of the cave. After that, he had cultivated according to the cultivation method, as well as purchased the medicinal ingredients to refine the subsequent pills. Only then had he achieved what he had today.
"Are you serious? Why do I feel that this story of yours sounds a little familiar? " Hong Zhu looked at Xiao Chen suspiciously, curled his lips, and said unhappily, "Don't tell me you're using the plot of a web novel to fool this big sister? Why are you so dishonest, child? "
"In any case, I've already told you the truth, it's up to you whether you believe me or not." Xiao Chen shrugged, and no longer explained, stood up, and stretched his body.
Hong Zhu still did not believe him, and continued to ask, "Besides, you were just an ordinary person at the time. Even if there was a cave at the bottom of the cliff, you would have been crippled even if you didn't die from falling from such a high place. How could you be so lucky as to fall into the cave without the slightest injury?"
Xiao Chen smiled but did not answer. He looked around the room, and then walked over to the sofa by the window.
As there was only a large bed in the room, although Xiao Chen and Hong Zhu were husband and wife on the surface, he did not want to put on an act for the time being, so he decided to simply make do with the sofa for a few days.
"Then, what is your current level of strength? Is it higher than the Gold Core Stage … "Seeing that Xiao Chen did not answer, Hong Zhu changed the topic and asked. Halfway through his question, he saw Xiao Chen walk over to the sofa, and was immediately stunned," Little Brother Xiao Chen, what are you doing? Are you going to sleep on the sofa? Don't we sleep in the same bed at night? "
Hong Zhu was very puzzled by Xiao Chen's behavior. Originally, she thought that she and Xiao Chen would have a further development tonight, but she did not expect that this guy would actually keep a respectful distance from her. Was she really so scary?
"What's so great about the Gold Core Stage? In short, my cultivation is very high, so you won't understand even if I tell you, and it might even scare you, so don't ask. "Xiao Chen chuckled, sat down cross-legged on the sofa, and closed his eyes, preparing to begin cultivating.
"Hey, wait a moment, you still haven't answered my last question!" Seeing that Xiao Chen was really going to sleep on the sofa, Hong Zhu immediately became anxious, jumped down from the chair, and ran in front of Xiao Chen.
