"I wonder how Li Mei is doing?" Wang Chen muttered happily as he made his way towards his cabin.
As soon as he opened the door, he felt someone jump towards him, and he smiled upon seeing that it was Li Mei.
Both Li Mei and Wang Chen fell to the ground, with Wang Chen landing on his butt and Li Mei sitting on his waist.
"Li Mei..." Wang Chen began to say, but before he could finish, Li Mei dashed into his chest and started sobbing.
"Did you miss me, Li Mei?" Wang Chen asked, placing a comforting hand on her back and rubbing it gently. After a while, Li Mei lifted her head and became embarrassed by the situation.
"I'm sorry, Master Wang Chen," she said, trying to apologize.
"It's okay, Li Mei," Wang Chen replied, still rubbing her back. "I'm just happy to see you."
When she moved a little bit, she felt something hard touching her thigh, and suddenly saw Wang Chen's face was also embarrassed. She quickly separated herself from him, feeling flustered and embarrassed herself.
"Damn, my big brother is so provocative," Wang Chen thought to himself.
Wang Chen and Li Mei found themselves sitting in an unfamiliar and uncomfortable environment. Wang Chen cleared his throat and asked, "What happened? Please tell me everything in detail."
Wang Chen was certain that something must have happened if Li Mei was crying so much just from missing him.
"Master, it's like..." Li Mei began. She proceeded to tell Wang Chen about how Yue Luang had attempted to kidnap her, and how she had fought back as fiercely as she could. She had been knocked out during the struggle, and when she came to, she found herself on the brink of death. Li Mei's eyes were full of fear and tears as she spoke, and her voice shook with emotion.
Wang Chen listened carefully, his face growing angrier with each passing moment. "Damn that bastard is so vicious," he thought to himself. "I didn't expect he would try to get Li Mei again."
He turned to Li Mei and placed a comforting hand on her head. "Don't worry," he said firmly. "I will take revenge soon."
Hearing these words, Li Mei nodded slowly. In her heart, she was grateful to have such a strong and protective master. She knew that with Wang Chen by her side, she would always be safe.
….
Three days had passed since the first test had taken place, and today was the day when the results would be announced. The anticipation and tension in the air were palpable, and all the sects were waiting eagerly to hear who had passed and who had failed.
The old man in charge of the tests had decided to announce the results personally, visiting each sect in turn to deliver the news. He arrived at the Red Lotus sect.
….
Somewhere within the Red Lotus sect, in a quiet and secluded cave abode, Yue Jang was recovering from a recent injury. After days of rest and recuperation, he finally felt well enough to get up and move around.
"Ho! Finally recovered," he exclaimed, stretching his limbs and feeling the blood flowing freely through his veins once more. He looked around his small abode, taking stock of his surroundings and feeling grateful for the peace and quiet.
As he prepared to take a bath, Yue Jang realized that the water had not been prepared. He frowned in irritation, muttering to himself, "Is that bastard slacking on his duty?" He knew that he had a servant who was supposed to attend to his needs, but lately, the young man had been neglecting his duties.
Yue Jang frowned in irritation as he thought about his lazy servant. "I remembered I gave him a mission to kidnap Wang Chen's maid," he muttered to himself, shaking his head in disappointment. "He couldn't even kidnap a mortal person. That's why maybe he is hiding."
Determined to find out what had happened to his servant, Yue Jang left his cave and began to search the Red Lotus sect. He asked some of his friends if they had seen Yue Luang, but they all shook their heads in confusion. "We haven't seen him around here," they said.
Frustrated, Yue Jang realized that there was only one place left to check. "If he is there, he is probably dead," he thought to himself. "But isn't this the best excuse to beat him? And I can take her easily, hehehe."
With a wicked smile on his face, Yue Jang made his way towards the last place.
….
Wang Chen and Li Mei were chatting happily when suddenly they heard a loud bang on their door. "Looks like he came at the right time," Wang Chen muttered with a sly grin.
"Get out here, Wang Chen! Why did you kill my Yue family servant? I want an explanation," Yue Jang roared.
Wang Chen emerged from the room slowly, and Li Mei followed him.
"Whose dog is barking?" Wang Chen said sarcastically.
Hearing this reply, veins bulged on Yue Jang's head.
"How dare you talk to me like that? Even Su Chen is not here to save your asses from getting beaten up," Yue Jang said, then he turned to Li Mei. "I gave you a chance, but you didn't accept it. I gave you a second chance, but you didn't even accept that. Now, I will beat you like a bitch every day," Yue Jang spoke as he licked his lips.
"What second chance? Forcefully kidnapping someone is not giving them a chance! Don't spout bullshit here, you don't have any authority," Wang Chen said with a smile on his face.
"Everything in the sect that is done by my grandfather has absolute authority here, and even if you show your evidence, no one is going to accept it or make it valid."
"Heh! Really? Seems like you didn't go out these days, but let me help you remember." Wang Chen said.
"Your grandfather has been expelled from the sect, along with you, for poisoning the sect master." Wang Chen informed Yue Jang.
"Wh-what ? How is this possible? The evidence was clearly hidden." Yue Jang mind no longer raced like a normal person and instead became crazy.
"Heh! So you admit as well that you are a killer." Wang Chen laughed.
Hearing this Yue Jang's mind panicked a bit and he is now exposed, taking this chance Wang Chen punched Yue Jang.
Yue Jang stumbled back a few steps, his nose bleeding from the impact of Wang Chen's punch. He held his hand to his face, trying to stop the bleeding as he glared at Wang Chen with a furious expression.
"You're going to regret that, Wang Chen. You're going to regret it a lot," he spat, his voice full of anger and malice.
Wang Chen simply smirked in response, his eyes glinting with amusement. "I'm not the one who should be regretting anything," he said, his voice cold and calculated. "You've made a lot of enemies, Yue Jang. And now, you're going to pay for it."
"Your Cultivation is lower than mine. How could you even touch me if it wasn't for the surprise I wouldn't have gotten injured in the first place."
"Okay then show me what you got, Yue Jang." Wang Chen said as he moved forward to attack Yue Jang.
Wang Chen used a normal sword instead of Thunderbolt blade and he was fighting Yue Jang with only 30 percent of his full strength. Yue Jang also took out his sword and there was the sound of metal clashing everywhere. They were both fighting fiercely, clashing their swords together and creating sparks.
"How is this possible? Just a few weeks ago, you were completely powerless and couldn't even withstand my aura. And now, you're fighting me toe to toe?" Yue Jang said in disbelief. " How did your Cultivation rise so much in such a small amount of time?"
Wang Chen was focused and determined as he fought against Yue Jang. His movements were precise and calculated, and he was able to dodge Yue Jang's attacks with ease. He could see the frustration growing on Yue Jang's face as their swords clashed and sparks flew.
"You should focus on your own fight," Wang Chen said tauntingly. "When you lose, you'll have all the time in hell to realize that."
Meanwhile, Li Mei was watching from inside the cabin, her heart racing with fear and disbelief. She had never seen Wang Chen fight like this before, and she couldn't believe how skilled he was with a sword. She had thought that when he had promised to get her revenge, he was just trying to comfort her, but now she realized that he was serious about it.
