Chapter 13 can be called the number one person in the world.
Luo Xingyi's face was full of apology and disappointment, and he did not resist.
Although with her cultivation level, she only needed to exert a little force to send Peng Xuan flying.
But logically and emotionally, she couldn't possibly retaliate.
only……
Peng Xuan's attitude made Luo Xingyi realize a fact.
Those junior brothers and sisters who left have no reason to return to the Xuanjian Sect.
"I'm sorry... Master, Mistress, I'm afraid... I won't be able to protect the Xuanjian Sect."
Filled with shame and confusion, Luo Xingyi even began to wish that Peng Xuan would push her off the seventeenth floor.
Let's just smash that incompetent and despicable woman on the ground and end it all...
With these thoughts in mind, Luo Xingyi slowly closed his eyes.
The abandonment of the Xuanjian Sect was inevitable, so she had no face to continue living.
"Master, Mistress, your disciple is coming to join you..."
"Chu, Senior Brother Chu?"
Peng Xuan's voice interrupted Luo Xingyi's thoughts, and even the hand that was gripping his collar instantly loosened.
"it's me."
A familiar voice rang in his ears, and Luo Xingyi knew who had come.
But she didn't open her eyes, because she was too ashamed to face Chu Xiao.
As the senior disciple, she couldn't even protect the sect or Chu Xiao's home. How could she possibly open her eyes to look at him?
"You...why are you here too?" Peng Xuan asked. "...Are you here to persuade me to return to the Xuanjian Sect as well?"
"No, I'm just here to take a senior sister who's prone to overthinking home," Chu Xiao replied.
He glanced at their expressions and, combined with their personalities, instantly understood the situation.
"Senior Sister Luo must have caused you a lot of trouble. As her junior brother, I should apologize to you." Chu Xiao sincerely apologized to Peng Xuan.
"It's really nothing..." Peng Xuan turned her head away. "No matter what, she was my senior sister. I could never really blame her."
After apologizing, Chu Xiao used one hand to straighten Luo Xingyi's disheveled collar and the other hand to hand the fruit he had bought to Peng Xuan.
"This is an apology. Please give my regards to your parents as well, since I used to be your senior."
"No need for apologies," Peng Xuan waved her hands repeatedly in refusal. "Besides... Senior Brother Chu has always been my senior brother..."
"Can a piece of trash without spiritual roots really be your senior brother?" Chu Xiao made his own hellish joke.
Upon hearing this, Peng Xuan immediately wanted to shake her head in denial.
But for some reason, she hesitated for a moment before shaking her head.
"Sorry to bother you, we'll leave now." Seeing that Peng Xuan refused to accept the fruit, Chu Xiao hung the bag containing the fruit on the doorknob.
After doing all this, Chu Xiao took Luo Xingyi's hand, whose eyes were closed and whose body was trembling, and walked outside.
After walking a few steps, Peng Xuan's voice came from behind.
"Senior Brother Chu..." Peng Xuan's right hand clenched slightly in front of her chest, "If... I mean if."
"If the Xuanjian Sect is re-established legitimately in the future, can I become your junior sister again?"
Chu Xiao stopped walking, but instead of turning around, he smiled and said, "I think it's better not to. I'm afraid Senior Sister's collar will get messed up again."
After saying that, he left without lingering and departed with Luo Xingyi.
Peng Xuan's face turned slightly pale. She opened her mouth as if to say something more, but ultimately held back.
After all, there is a difference between immortals and mortals.
In her view, now that Chu Xiao had become a mortal, there was no longer any possibility between them...
……
"Senior Sister Luo, we're almost at the sect, aren't you going to open your eyes yet?"
Chu Xiao, who was almost at the sect, spoke up.
Luo Xingyi did not respond.
"If Senior Sister doesn't open her eyes soon, Junior Brother is going to take the opportunity to do some hehehehe things."
Luo Xingyi's body stiffened, but he still showed no intention of opening his eyes.
Even saying such things was useless. Chu Xiao was somewhat speechless. He guessed that Luo Xingyi's Dao heart was about to shatter.
To prevent this stubborn senior sister from developing YuYu syndrome due to escapism, Chu Xiao laid his cards on the table.
He took a deep breath and circulated his spiritual energy.
Recalling the second-tier fist spirit skill [Eight Extremes Collapse] that he had learned before, Chu Xiao released Luo Xingyi's hand, took a step back, and assumed a fighting stance.
"Senior Sister, I seem to have encountered a problem while cultivating the Eight Extremes Collapse technique. Could you please give me some pointers?"
After saying that, he took a step forward and unleashed his full power, blasting towards Luo Xingyi, whose eyes were tightly closed.
Feeling the force of the punch coming towards him, Luo Xingyi suddenly opened his eyes, which had been closed for a long time.
The approaching fist was reflected in those iris-colored eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Luo Xingyi moved his right hand.
She calmly raised her hand and assumed a fighting stance.
If anyone else were to see this, they would surely notice that the technique Luo Xingyi used was also the [Eight Extremes Collapse].
She didn't make any further moves, but the next second, Chu Xiao, who threw the first punch, was knocked back.
He took several steps backward before regaining his balance.
"Your Baji Beng technique isn't proficient enough; it only has the form, not the essence. Have you been wasting your time practicing it all these years?"
"Moreover, offensive techniques should aim to attack the enemy with seven parts of their power and retain three parts for oneself."
"But you unleashed your full power without holding back before you were certain your opponent couldn't retaliate..."
"If it's a life-or-death battle, even if we're at the same level, if your attack fails, you'll be severely injured."
Luo Xingyi instantly switched into the role of the senior sister, her extremely imposing eyes fixed on Chu Xiao.
Her face was frosty as she spoke without any mercy: "I've said these things countless times during our training. If your ears are no longer useful, you can donate them to someone in need."
"It is a misfortune for the sect to have a disciple like you."
The sharp criticisms continued, escalating from initial criticism to personal attacks.
Coupled with Luo Xingyi's cold voice and face, most people who are scolded will subconsciously feel fear.
Cold, sarcastic, stressed, and aloof.
—That's right, this is Luo Xingyi's appearance when she played the role of the senior sister.
However, Chu Xiao was used to Luo Xingyi's behavior, so he still smiled.
After Luo Xingyi finished cursing, he returned to his normal appearance.
At the same time, she also realized the significance of Chu Xiao's actions.
"You... your cultivation has returned?" Luo Xingyi asked.
She sensed the spiritual energy fluctuations of the seventh level of Qi Refining emanating from Chu Xiao.
"No," Chu Xiao explained, "I'm just starting over."
"Seven days, from zero to the seventh level of Qi Refining..." Luo Xingyi was somewhat incredulous.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xiao was about to reply when he suddenly sensed something.
"Seventh level of Qi Refining?" Chu Xiao smiled slightly as he sensed the souls within the Myriad Soul Banner.
It was indeed true that he had reached the seventh level of Qi Refining before, but the players of "Alice in Wonderland" were providing Chu Xiao with souls every moment.
Several hours have passed since Chu Xiao descended the mountain to search for Luo Xingyi.
and so……
"It's not seven days, nor is it seven floors."
After transforming his soul into cultivation, the aura of the eighth level of Qi Refining was revealed.
Chu Xiao smiled and revealed the truth: "It's one day, on the eighth floor."
Luo Xingyi's eyes widened slightly in shock.
In just one day, he rose from a mortal to the eighth level of Qi Refining.
Such talent...
—He can be called the number one person in the world!
