"Stingy", a voice came from the air as Long Xinyu showed herself. She had an aggrieved look on her face as she looked towards Zhan Chen.
"Big baddie, you are so shameless. You could have at least put some clothes before calling me out", Long Xinyu spoke.
"Shameless! I am making love with my girls in my own abode. You are the one peeking at the intimate act between us. Now that, you are caught, you are telling me, I am shameless?", Zhan Chen started at Long Xinyu. He was still naked as he faced the little dragon girl.
Long Xinyu didn't know what to say after hearing the retort of Zhan Chen. A guilty expression appeared on her face as she lowered her head.
Li Shu and Kai Min had already escaped to a nearby room after Long Xinyu appeared. Zhan Chen had no shame but they couldn't act so shamelessly infront of a little girl like Long Xinyu.
"I am sorry", Long Xinyu looked at Zhan Chen with puppy eyes. Zhan Chen couldn't pretend to be angry after seeing the lovely expression of Long Xinyu.
"Fine, I forgive you this time. Let me put on my clothes first before I talk to you", Zhan Chen spoke.
"Now tell me, why are you peeking at us?", Zhan Chen looked at Long Xinyu after putting on his clothes.
"It is because....", Long Xinyu couldn't reply anything in defence as she stuttured. Her face reddened as she looked at Zhan Chen.
"What a surprise! Even a curious little dragon can feel shy some time", Zhan Chen muttered with an amused expression on his face. He didn't want to make Long Xinyu uncomfortable anymore. So, he changed the topic.
"Tell me, what kind of food you need? If you want cultivation resources, then it will be hard for me to provide with my current position in the sect", Zhan Chen looked towards Long Xinyu.
"Only food will do. I have no requirement for cultivation resources because the only thing I hate is cultivation", Long Xinyu replied.
"Can I have a cave for myself?", she looked towards Zhan Chen before Zhan Chen could ask another question.
"Of course, you can take which ever you want", Zhan Chen replied.
"Thank you", Long Xinyu spoke before vanishing into the air. Zhan Chen shook his head with a smile after Long Xinyu had left.
"If it is possible I do not want to involve her in these. But no one knows what future entails", he murmured to himself.
-------------------
Xu Zhen was a disciple from the Sword peak of the Xuantian sect. He was practicing his sword calmly when a young man appeared infront of him.
"Hello senior brother. I am Zhan Chen. I would like to know your name before asking you a favour", the young man spoke with a polite manner.
"Zhan Chen! Never heard of this name before. You better have a good reason for disturbing my cultivation", Xu Zhen spoke with a frown on his face.
"Senior brother, I am leaving my abode for a while. My companions are still there cultivating inside. I want you to watch over them untill I return. I don't want anyone to disturb them while I am absent", Zhan Chen spoke.
"Watching over your abode? Are you serious?", an angry expression appeared on Xu Zhen's face after he heard the absurd reason of Zhan Chen. His anger was completely justified because no one would talk to an inner court disciple like this.
"I know, you will not agree to my proposal straight away. But I have, no other option. I couldn't find any other Martial ascension realm disciple after leaving my abode", Zhan Chen spoke.
"You want a Martial ascension realm cultivator to guard your abode?", Xu Zhen looked towards Zhan Chen with an incredulous expression. There was visible anger on his face as he looked towards the unreasonable young man infront of him.
A glint appeared in Zhan Chen's eyes after he saw the angry disciple infront of him. He used the soul enslavement technique and the eyes of Xu Zhen became blank for a moment. The next moment, luster returned his eyes and there was an obedient expression on his face when he looked towards Zhan Chen.
"Master", he wanted to bow but Zhan Chen stopped him. "No need to do anything unnecessary. Watch after them for a while and I will repay you for this favour", Zhan Chen spoke to Xu Zhen.
He looked through the memory of Xu Zhen and found out about the location of the Xuantian sect's treasury. He sent Xu Zhen towards his abode and walked towards the central valley where the sect's treasury was located.
There were many mountains and valleys located in the vast Blue qilin mountain range. Zhan Chen had to walk quite a distance before he could reach the central valley where the treasury of the Xuantian sect was located.
Unlike other mountains, the central valley was bustling with cultivators. Cultivators were going in and out from the central valley while talking with eachother.
"Do you know? The sect has selected a new core disciple today", a cultivator spoke.
"Yes, I have heard about it. My seniors from the Earth fire peak are talking about it", another cultivator added.
There were many groups of cultivators going in and out. Most of the cultivators were talking about the new core disciple who had just been inducted into the Xuantian sect.
Zhan Chen heard many voices around him but the conversation of a particular group, caught his attention.
"You probably do not know but senior sister Jiu Yin will most likely target this newcomer", a chubby looking girl spoke to her companions.
"Senior sister Jiu Yin! What is the need for her to pick a fight with the core disciple?", few of her companions asked with confused expression on their faces.
"All of you know her. She is a battle maniac feared by all the inner court disciples and core disciples alike. The cultivators, she hates most were the ones who had a frivolous attitude and thinks women as mere play thing", the chubby looking girl replied.
"You mean to say that this new core disciple is such kind of person", her companions asked with surprised expression on their faces.
"Yes, I have heard about it. He has kidnapped an elder from the Serpent moon sect who is a married person herself", the chubby looking girl replied.
"And where did you hear about it?", a voice interrupted their conversation as they saw a tall handsome young man walking towards them.
