1101 Provoking a Core Disciple
"Xiao Yang? So you're Disciple Xiao." Yun Xiao Hong frowned deeply after seeing Su Yang's ordinary face.
He spat on the ground and sneered in disgust, "I was told you were ugly, but I could've never imagined it would be to this extent. How did you even get into the sect with that face?"
After seeing Su Yang's ordinary face with his own eyes, Yun Xiao Hong became even more enraged that Lin Xinyi had chosen Su Yang over him.
"This is unacceptable, Disciple Lin! I cannot accept this! Are you telling me that he's better than me in your eyes?!" Yun Xiao Hong turned to her and roared.
"Hey, why are you barking outside my partner's residence? Even a dog has more manners than you," Su Yang suddenly mocked.
The disciples there looked at Su Yang with terrified expressions on their faces.
'Did he just mock a Core Disciple, calling him worse than a dog?! He's fucking dead!'
'Hahaha! It looks like Fairy Lin will become single again in no time!'
Lin Xinyi covered her mouth from shock, her eyes filled with worry.
Yun Xiao Hong's face turned red after realizing he'd just been mocked.
However, before he could speak, Su Yang continued, "Anyway, let me answer your question. She chose me because I am superior. It's as simple as that."
"WATCH YOUR MOUTH!"
Yun Xiao Hong suddenly used a movement technique and lunged his fist at Su Yang's face. However, he had no intention of trying to kill Su Yang. He only wanted to rough up Su Yang's face until it was unrecognizable.
Unauthorized fighting amongst disciples was prohibited, but as a Core Disciple, Yun Xiao Hong had some leeway.
Right before the fist landed on his face, Su Yang caught it, even doing so with seemingly no effort.
'What?! He caught my fist?!' Yun Xiao Hong exclaimed inwardly.
Yun Xiao Hong was at the ninth level of the Divine Origin Realm, and Su Yang appeared to be at the first level of the Divine Spirit Realm because he suppressed his cultivation. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"..."
Despite his outrageous claims, Lin Xinyi found herself feeling an inexplicable sense of trust toward him.
'How come I don't feel doubtful even in the slightest? Is it because of his smile?' she wondered inwardly.
"You said it yourself, Disciple Xiao. If you cannot become a Core Disciple within three months, you'll leave this sect! And once you're no longer a disciple, I'll fucking torture you myself!" Yun Xiao Hong said.
Su Yang nodded, "But if I manage to become a Core Disciple... the first thing I'll do is have a deathmatch with you."
"Haha! Of course! I won't refuse! I swear on it!" Yun Xiao Hong declared.
Yun Xiao Hong turned around and walked away shortly after.
Su Yang glared at the Outer Court disciples afterward and said, "What are you lot still doing here? Are you looking to enter the arena with me?"
They instantly recalled Su Yang's life-or-death match with Shao Jianjun and trembled in fear.
Without uttering a word, they quickly scrambled away.
Lin Xinyi rushed over to Su Yang once they were alone, tears flowing down her face.
"The other didn't matter, but you shouldn't have provoked that Core Disciple, Xiao Yang!"
Su Yang rubbed her back and said, "Calm down. Even if he's a Core Disciple, he's only a disciple at the end of the day. The God of Pleasure would offend even the Heavenly Emperor for his wives."
"But you're not the God of Pleasure! I appreciate what you're trying to do, but I don't want you getting hurt for it! And you just did the worst thing a disciple can do in the sect—offend a Core Disciple!"
Su Yang laughed, "So what? I'll also become a Core Disciple in three months, anyway."
"That's..." Lin Xinyi fell silent.
"Once I win the Yang Qi King, I'll immediately become an Inner Court disciple. Then, I'll become a Core Disciple within two months." Su Yang revealed his plans to her, leaving her speechless.
"You're participating in the Yang Qi King...?" she muttered in a daze.
