Chapter 3 One-year appointment

Elder Xingyun knew that it was impossible to banish Su Chen from his dantian and drive him out of the mountain gate as planned.

However, he still had a way to create some obstacles on Su Chen's path of cultivation so that Su Chen could not surpass his beloved disciple Lu Yuan.

"Although Su Chen escaped the fate of losing his Dantian, the punishment of being a handyman is not light. He has to work as a handyman for a year and is still unable to practice."

"The genius of the past has become a handyman. This gap is not something ordinary people can bear."

"That's right! Who allowed him to hide his secrets? His cultivation has improved so quickly, he can also make elixirs, and he doesn't support us fellow disciples. Bah."

Many disciples have always been jealous of Su Chen, who was extremely talented. Now that they have the opportunity to add insult to injury, they naturally don't mind pushing Su Chen from behind.

Su Chen sneered. He had expected that Elder Xingyun would not be defeated so easily by a young disciple with no background.

If a powerful elder who controls everything can be brought down so easily, then Zhengyi Sect will not be the largest sect within a radius of three thousand miles.

"Okay, Su Chen, pack your things and go down the mountain to the courtyard!"

Elder Xingyun said with a sneer. As the powerful elder of the Zhengyi Sect, it would not be difficult for him to suppress a young disciple like Su Chen as long as he had a suitable excuse.

Su Chen wanted to fight him, but he was still too young after all!

However, just when Elder Xingyun was feeling proud in his heart.

But they heard Su Chen's calm voice again, and what he said once again surprised everyone.

"From today on, I quit the Zhengyi Sect."

What!

Everyone couldn't believe their ears.

Su Chen wants to quit Zhengyi Sect?

There were so many people within a thousand miles of the sect who would only dream of squeezing in, and yet he just left in an understatement?

Elder Xingyun was also stunned and said angrily: "Su Chen, what did you say?"

"You have tried so hard to frame me, isn't it just to get me to leave the Zhengyi Sect? It just so happens that I don't pay attention to the Zhengyi Sect."

"It's just a sect, I quit."

Su Chen gave the people in the hall a final cold look, put away the Qi Gathering Pill he had refined, and then turned around and left.

Until Su Chen completely walked out of the hall, everyone present was still immersed in strong shock.

Today they not only witnessed Su Chen's hidden alchemy skills, but they also witnessed Su Chen's withdrawal from Zhengyi Sect!

In the eyes of others, his status as a disciple of the Zhengyi Sect was enviable, but to Su Chen, it seemed like a pile of garbage that could be discarded at any time.

Just like what he said, he didn't take it seriously!

However, before everyone could fully recover, a disciple guarding the mountain hurriedly ran up from the bottom of the mountain, holding a scroll in his hand: "Tell the elders, this is the last thing Su Chen left before leaving the mountain gate. He asked his disciples to bring something to you!"

Elder Xingyun was furious. Hearing this, he took the scroll and unfolded it to take a look.

As a result, the words on the scroll made Elder Xingyun almost faint!

On the scroll, nineteen shocking large characters were written in ink:

"One year later, I will definitely return, defeat the Zhengyi Sect, and kill Elder Xingyun and Lu Yuan!"

Nineteen big characters made everyone at the scene horrified and inexplicable again!

I have to say that Su Chen's courage is really too great.

"That's unreasonable!"

Elder Xingyun slapped the table in front of him hard, causing sawdust to fly, and he wanted to call someone to catch Su Chen, this little evil beast.

However, at this time, Su Chen had already left the mountain gate and was missing.

"Master, this is just the pathetic cry of a loser, why should you care?"

Lu Yuan persuaded with a gentle smile and contempt in his eyes.

Elder Xingyun quickly calmed down and knew that the contents in Su Chen's scroll were impossible to realize.

A fifteen-year-old disciple, without the support of Zhengyi Sect's secret books and resources, would never be able to grow up to compete with Zhengyi Sect in ten years, let alone one year.

His clamor can only be crazy talk that is destined to be impossible to achieve.

Elder Xingyun calmed down, thought for a moment, and sneered: "Okay, then I will wait and see how far he can be in a year's time!"

Anyway, although there were some discrepancies between the facts and the plan, they still achieved part of their goal - to get Su Chen to leave Zhengyi Sect!

In this way, Lu Yuan's position as the chief disciple of the Zhengyi Sect could no longer be shaken.

…

Su Chen, who left Zhengyi Sect, was thinking about his future direction.

His short-term goal is simple: to defeat the Zhengyi Sect within a year and kill Elder Xingyun and Lu Yuan, his two former enemies.

If other people knew about it, they might think that they were just talking nonsense. But Su Chen knew that there would probably be more than a year.

In this life, I did not have my Dantian destroyed like in my previous life. This means that the vast number of exercises and martial arts I mastered in my previous life can be practiced in this life.

In this life, he is no longer a useless person in martial arts.

This life must be a hundred times more exciting than the previous life.

This is Su Chen's confidence!

Su Chen's top priority now is to find a place to stay.

My family in Duyang City cannot go back for the time being. If my parents who love me know that I suddenly left the Zhengyi Sect, they will definitely be worried.

"Just like in the last life, let's go to my aunt's house in Qinghe City."

Su Chen made a decision.

He used the little money he had left to hire a carriage, and within half a day, he arrived at Qinghe City, located on the outskirts of the Xuanqing Mountains, at noon.

Qinghe City is one of the thirty-six cities under the Yunyuan Empire. Su Chen's mother's sister, Xu Yin, lives there.

In his previous life, Su Chen also came to Qinghe City to seek refuge with his aunt after leaving Zhengyi Sect.

However, in his previous life, Su Chen did not leave Zhengyi Sect voluntarily, but was driven out by Dantian.

One can imagine how downcast he was in his previous life. He stayed at his aunt's house and often suffered looks and special treatment from some people.

But, everything will be different in this life.

"This will be the starting point of my life."

"The Ye family in Qinghe City, and the Wang family, our accounts will be settled slowly in this life!"

Su Chen muttered softly and walked into Qinghe City.

The Jiang family in Qinghe City is one of the three major families as famous as the Ye family and the Wang family.

With his past life experience, Su Chen was familiar with the road and arrived at the gate of the Jiang family's mansion in the afternoon.

Dong Dong——

Su Chen knocked the door knocker and said to the Jiang family guard who came upon hearing the sound: "I am Su Chen, looking for the second lady."

Second Madam, this is the name of Su Chen's aunt Xu Yin in the Jiang family.

Xu Yin married Jiang Hai, the second master of the Jiang family, sixteen years ago and gave birth to a daughter the following year.

Jiang Hai is the mainstay of the Jiang family. He is also very kind to mother and daughter, and they live a harmonious life.

However, something unexpected happened. Six years later, Jiang Hai accidentally disappeared during a family mission, and his life and death were uncertain.

After that, although Xu Yin still maintained her previous status in the Jiang family, some secret rumors made her very distressed.

Within a moment, the guards of the Jiang family brought Su Chen into the mansion and came to the familiar courtyard in his memory.

"Xiao Chen!"

A woman with familiar features had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time.

The Xu Yin in front of her was much younger than in Su Chen's memory.

"Auntie."

Even if Su Chen was in the state of mind of the ten thousand-year-old alchemy monster, he couldn't help but have a sore nose at this moment.

The aunt is not Su Chen's biological aunt, but the former maid of Su Chen's mother. Because of her outstanding talent in martial arts, she was adopted as the adopted daughter by Su Chen's grandfather, who was also the adopted sister of Su Chen's mother.

She and Su Chen's mother were like biological sisters, and they treated Su Chen as if they were her own. She was one of the few relatives who treated him sincerely, apart from Su Chen's parents.

In his previous life, Su Chen was deprived of his Dantian and expelled from the Zhengyi Sect. He came to the Jiang family in great despair. His aunt took him in without saying a word and took good care of him in every possible way.

However, in his previous life, he was confused and self-destructive because his Dantian was destroyed, and he disappointed his aunt many times.

In this life, nothing will happen again.

"Xiaochen, aren't you in the Zhengyi Sect? Why did you come suddenly?" Xu Yin's face was full of nervousness. She knew that the Zhengyi Sect had strict rules and would not let its disciples go down the mountain easily.

Could it be that Su Chen was kicked out by the Zhengyi Sect?
