“Can I help you?” Yuan asked the group of beauties standing before him.
Yuan raised his eyebrows.
This caught the girl who just spoke off guard.
“I am Tang Meili, one of Four Dragons and Phoenixes, also known as Poison Phoenix. You’ve heard of us, right?”
“Yes, I have heard about you guys before. So, how can I help you, Poison Phoenix?”
And she continued, “Anyways, my Tang Family happens to be hiring more servants. Although you don’t really qualify at this moment, I’m willing to make an exception. Become my servant.”
After snapping out of it, he chuckled, “Are you always like this?”
Yuan showed a daring smile, “There you go again. How can you say such words with such a calm face? There should be a limit to one’s arrogance. Even if you came from the upper heavens, you don’t own everyone here, so don’t act and speak like you do.”
“How dare you!”
“You think you’re untouchable just because you are a little talented?! I’ll show you!”
The girls with Tang Meili exploded with anger before she could even respond.
? It was Long Chen.
“Calm down?! I will calm down after I cut off his tongue!” One of the girls said as she leaped forward and swung her weapon at Yuan’s face.
Long Chen quickly reacted by deflecting the attack.
“Ah!” The girl who clashed with him was sent flying backwards.
“Let’s attack him together! Even he cannot defeat all of us while his cultivation is restricted to Spirit King!” Someone suggested.
The place became silent again.
“Hmph.” Tang Meili sneered at his words, and she said, “I don’t have any business with you today, Silver Dragon.”
Long Chen didn’t try to stop her since he didn’t feel any killing intent from her, but he still kept an eye on her just in case.
“I will only ask you this one time. Are you sure you don’t want to serve me? My Tang Family is one of the top 10 families in the Supreme Heaven. Although you will only be a servant, nobody would dare to mess with you. If you put in enough work, you might even be allowed to learn our family techniques.”
“Thank you for the offer, but I will have to refuse.” Yuan responded without needing to think about it.
When she opened them, they were resolute and emitted a ruthless aura.
Tang Meili’s words implied that she was going to destroy him, but she didn’t do that and simply turned around and began walking away.
“I’m not the type that enjoys stepping on ants, but I will kill him if he ever dares to step foot in the Supreme Heaven.” Tang Meili said in a cold voice.
Yuan looked at her with slightly widened eyes and said, “You’re going to let them attack me? What kind of guide are you?”
Yuan turned to look at Long Chen, who was silently smiling at him.
Long Chen shrugged, “I can’t speak for everyone, but that’s how many people in the Supreme Heaven view those from a lower realm. After all, even beggars up there have a higher cultivation than everyone down here. Though, the Poison Phoenix showed a lot of restraint back there. Normally, she’d kill anyone that dares to talk back to her.”
A cold smile appeared on Long Chen’s face as he replied, “Of course, you’re all nothing but ants in my eyes.”
“In your current state? Yes, you are. I don’t mean to sound conceited, but even with my cultivation restricted, I can easily crush you with a single finger. You may have potential, but that’s all you are right now— potential.”
Long Chen continued, “You are probably thinking that you have a few cards up your sleeve since I haven’t seen you fight at 100 percent, but the same goes for you.”
Long Chen was slightly shaken when he noticed Yuan’s unwavering eyes.
However, before he could even say anything, Yuan had already left his side and entered the Sword Temple.
Since he has yet to pass the Sword Trial, Long Chen could only watch as Yuan’s back disappeared into the building.
