"Ok, ok, I admit that you are an adult. Tell me now, why have you come to find me?", Zhan Chen looked towards Long Xinyu.
"First promise me that you will help me. Otherwise, I will not share my reason with you", Long Xinyu spoke.
Zhan Chen looked at the unreasonable girl for a moment. Seeing the crafty look on her face, he knew she was upto no good.
"Share your reason first. I can't promise you anything without knowing the details", he spoke to Long Xinyu.
"Stingy", Long Xinyu pouted her face immediately after hearing the reply of Zhan Chen. Both Zi Ningxi and Zhan Chen chuckled after seeing her like this.
"What is so funny you big pervert? I thought you are a good person but here you are so stupid that you can't even understand anything", Long Xinyu spoke with an angry look on her face. She was planning to chide Zhan Chen further but an untimely sound interrupted her from speaking.
"Gulu!", sound of stomach rumbling came out and both Zhan Chen and Zi Ningxi became stunned by the loud sound associated with it.
Both of the cheeks of Long Xinyu became red after she saw the astonished expression on the faces of both Zhan Chen and Zi Ningxi. She threw a resentful look at Zhan Chen before becoming invisible again.
"So, you want my help in finding food", Zhan Chen mumbled as a look of understanding appeared on his face. She recalled what he had learnered about dragons and realisation about Long Xinyu 's difficulty dawned upon him.
"Little girl, I promise I will help you. So, come out and tell me, what do you want?", Zhan Chen spoke.
His words were in vein as Long Xinyu didn't come out even after few moments of waiting. "She must have fled to Xiu Lan's room", Zhan Chen thought to himself and bade farewell to Zi Ningxi.
Zi Ningxi happily bade him farewell as she knew it was important to pacify the strange little girl. Zhan Chen went towards Sun Xiu lan's room after leaving the room of Zi Ningxi.
He didn't have to cover all the distance as she felt the presence of Long Xinyu in the air. He could sense that she was observing him while maintaining a certain distance.
"Little girl, sorry for my earlier rudeness. Now that I have known your problem, I promise I will help you as much as you want", Zhan Chen spoke.
"Are you telling the truth?", the voice of Long Xinyu came out from the air after Zhan Chen spoke.
Zhan Chen nodded his head and Long Xinyu finally shown herself once again infront of him.
------------------
A powerful soul consciousness approached the Rosewood inn in the morning next day. Zhan Chen who was cultivating peacefully opened his eyes and looked towards the sky. "It is time to leave", he murmured to himself and left his room.
Lin Xintong, Sun Xiu Lan, Kai Min, Li Shu, Li Yan, Zhan Qingyue, Zi Ningxi and Zi Nuan were already present in the main hall when Zhan Chen entered inside. All of them stopped their conversation and looked at him when he stepped inside the main hall of the Rosewood inn.
"Everyone, are you ready to leave the city?", Zhan Chen looked towards the girls present. All of them nodded their heads except Sun Xiu lan and Lin Xintong.
"You two, have you made your decision?", Zhan Chen looked towards Sun Xiu lan and Lin Xintong.

"Yes, young master", both of them replied simultaneously as a decisive look appeared on both of their faces.
"Young master, we appreciate your offer to join others in the journey to the Xuantian sect but we have decided otherwise.
Both of us want to continue to stay here and cultivate quitely", Sun Xiu lan spoke. Lin Xintong also nodded her head and looked towards Zhan Chen.
"As you wish", Zhan Chen spoke softly and told others to gather in the entrance. Two experts were already waiting for them when they gathered outside the Rosewood inn.
One of the expert was Lu Tai Cang who had accompanied Zhan Chen and his group since their arrival to the Longyang city. Other expert was the elder of the Xuantian sect, Ying Chao who had come to bring Zhan Chen to the Xuantian sect.
"Good morning seniors", Zhan Chen greeted both of the experts respectively. The girls present also followed suit as they bowed their heads towards Lu Tai Cang and Ying Chao.
"Little girls, it is a pleasure to meet you all. But now, I must say farewell. Elder Chao will take care of you all after I leave", Lu Tai Cang spoke.
"Senior, thank you for your time and care", Li Yan, Li Shu, Kai Min, Lin Xintong and Sun Xiu lan bowed towards Lu Tai Cang once again.
"Farewell", Lu Tai Cang smiled and spoke to Zhan Chen and other girls. He took a look at Ying Chao before flying towards the distance.
"Zhan Chen, cultivate properly. I hope you will give me a surprise when we meet once again", the voice of Lu Tai Cang came to Zhan Chen's mind.
Zhan Chen smiled as he saw Lu Tai Cang flying towards the distance.
"Zhan Chen, are you ready to leave?", Ying Chao asked after Lu Tai Cang left. There was a strange look on his face as he observed all the women gathered infront of the Rosewood inn.
"Yes senior, we can leave for the Xuantian sect right away", Zhan Chen replied.
"Are you bringing all of them along?", Ying Chao pointed towards all the girls present around Zhan Chen.
"Yes, all of them will come with me except two Xintong and Xiu lan", Zhan Chen replied.
"One, two three, four, five, six", Ying Chao counted the number of girls around Zhan Chen and his mouth twitched at the end. 'What a womanizer this brat is! I have to tell him the rules before taking all of them to the Xuantian sect", Ying Chao thought to himself.
"Zhan Chen, I want you to be mindful of few rules before entering the Xuantian sect", Ying Chao looked towards Zhan Chen.
"Senior, please speak. I will try to obey all the rules that Xuantian sect has put in place", Zhan Chen spoke.
"First of all, we have three type of disciples. Outer court disciples, Inner court disciples and core disciples.
The cultivators who are generally selected into our sect are the Outer court disciples. They are the largest group of cultivators inside our Xuantian sect.
Their high number means they are the less privileged group among the cultivators of the Xuantian sect. They have to earn sect points to be able to cultivate inside the sect.
Above them are inner court disciples who have far better privileges than the outer court disciples. They do not have the compulsion to earn sect points to be able to stay inside the Xuantian sect.
The most privileged group among the disciples are the core disciples. Their numbers are very few. So, they get to enjoy most of the privileges inside the Xuantian sect.
Your rank in the Grand sect competetion automatically make you eligible to be an inner court disciple. But you have to keep in mind that there are still core disciples above you.
An inner court disciple can bring ten person with them. But only two of their status will be equal to the Outer court disciples. Other eight will be treated as commoners and they don't have any privileges that outer court disciples enjoy", Ying Chao spoke.
