Chapter 101: You're taking advantage of me
She had never encountered such a despicable man. He clearly possessed immense strength but chose to hide it, refusing to make a move and not even providing her the chance to duel.
And he wants to send me away? That's just bullying! I, the Ancient Divine Body, am as beautiful as a flower, with a perfect figure and looks, like a fairy descended from the Nine Heavens!
In Nan Zhanbu Province, which young man didn't like her? If she were to visit a young man, he would be desperate to hold grand celebrations to welcome her arrival.
And you! You just look the other way! Heh!
Chen Shixian stepped into Qingfeng.
This news quickly spread throughout the Wuji Sect. The young disciples were shocked and disbelieving—it was a Divine Body!
Is Chen that amazing? Wasn't it said that Chen Pingping is just a mortal? Herding cattle and raising dogs? Oh, right, and he brought back two Earth Chickens. The Divine Body from the Stone Country Imperial City, why is she looking for him?
A few older disciples revealed the truth, "Chen from our Qingfeng might not cultivate, but he's handsome—yes, very handsome. Perhaps something unmentionable happened between him and the Divine Body during his six or seven years of trials in the Wasteland. Now the Divine Body, in a fury, has come to settle the score; she must already be..."
"Already what?"
"Pregnant."
"Pregnant?"
"Unbelievable, the Divine Body is actually pregnant!"
A group of young people gathered outside Qingfeng, holding their breath, staring intently at the two figures on the grass.
HUM!
The Divine Body Chen Shixian drew her sword, her face cold and indifferent.
From their perspective, they could only see the back of a figure wreathed in immortal energy.
Someone speculated, "The Divine Body is pregnant, and Chen doesn't want to take responsibility, so he ran off. Now the Divine Body has come to demand an explanation."
"Yes, that's it!"
"Chen is so cool, he even bedded a Divine Body! He truly is a role model for our generation!" Many young people showed envious expressions.
「On the grass.」
Chen Shixian said coldly, "Make your move!"
Chen Pingping sighed. "What exactly do you want to do?"
"I wish to sever a great calamity," she said.
"You believe in that kind of thing?" Chen Pingping was speechless. "Even the Heavenly Fortune Tao can make mistakes, let alone a mere piece of paper."
"That's a Heavenly Book."
"Isn't a Heavenly Book made of paper?"
Chen Shixian was dumbfounded.
His perspective isn't wrong—essentially, a Heavenly Book is paper. But it's not just any ordinary paper. The Heavenly Book possessed the ability to grant insight, allowing one to see many future scenes. It also had the effect of True Words, making it somewhat stronger than general insight.
Chen Shixian said nothing and simply slashed forward, but her footing slipped. Before her sword could even strike, her body wobbled and lunged forward.
WHOOPS!
She fell into Chen Pingping's arms.
The group of onlooking Wuji Sect disciples behind her were dumbfounded.
Naturally, as a powerful Divine Body, it was impossible for her to slip without reason. There was a cause: a mysterious Power Path had just obstructed her.
But she didn't realize it immediately; her mind went blank. At that moment, she found herself entirely in Chen Pingping's embrace.
The sensation was inexplicably strange.
Her cheeks flushed scarlet, her body burning hot. Moreover, her little heart was beating several times faster than usual, like a frantic deer.
She was bewildered. In her twenty-plus years of life, she had never encountered such a situation.
However, she had to admit that she actually... enjoyed the feeling. His scent was pleasing, offering her a sense of security. She didn't want to get up, as if she had fallen into a soft, cushy world.
But... eventually, she had to come to her senses. She remembered who she was and why she had come.
Slaying the major catastrophe. Damn it! Chen Shixian, what on earth am I thinking?
Her eyes widened as she quickly rose, her expression turning angry. "Chen Pingping, did you do that on purpose?"
"Huh?" Chen Pingping had a bewildered expression. "I didn't do anything at all!"
"How dare you say that?" Chen Shixian was fuming. As an Ancient Divine Body, a powerhouse of the Supreme Mystery Realm, how could I possibly slip and fall? It must have been Chen Pingping's doing!
As soon as she finished speaking, she lifted her sword and slashed.
Chen Pingping hadn't reacted yet. Because the distance was too short, by the time he realized what was happening, the sword had already pierced his chest.
SCHLICK! A streak of scarlet blood spilled out.
"From love to hate!" the crowd behind judged once more.
"Hold on, don't talk! Don't interrupt our viewing of the drama..."
The scene suddenly quieted down.
Chen Shixian looked at the sword in her hand, then at the wound on his chest. Her arm trembled, and the sword... slipped from her grasp. She panicked.
For some reason, she felt an inexplicable rush of panic. Her chest heaved, her breathing rapid, as if everything before her eyes had turned pitch black.
He didn't resist. He didn't dodge. Why didn't he resist? That blockhead, that fool... It's over, it's over, I've gravely hurt him.
Chen Shixian's face was pale. An inexplicable feeling of grievance suddenly surged up, and she squatted on the grass and started crying.
The crowd was utterly bewildered.
This tale of love and hate, the more they watched, the more perplexing and unpredictable the plot became.
"I get it now! The Divine Body is carrying Chen's child, so she came to demand an explanation. But Chen is clueless, not realizing the Divine Body is pregnant. So... after the Divine Body tried probing several times, he still didn't get it. That's why the Divine Body ended up crying out of grievance," someone surmised.
With this explanation, the onlookers suddenly had an epiphany, all thinking the same four words: "So that's how it is."
"Then... why doesn't the Divine Body just tell Chen directly?" a young man asked, puzzled.
The crowd looked at him and rolled their eyes. "That's how women are; you have to figure it out yourself. If she has to tell you, it's not sincere anymore."
"Women are so complicated," the young man said, bewildered.
SOB SOB!
The renowned Divine Body, just like that, squatted on the ground crying. She looked so utterly aggrieved!
Chen Pingping, caught off guard, had no idea what was happening. You came at me full of murderous intent, intending to draw your sword, and then you accidentally fell. After that, you stabbed me, and now... you're crying? I haven't even complained about being wronged, so what are you crying for? This woman... she must be out of her mind!
He was speechless and finally couldn't take it anymore, shouting, "Alright, alright, what are you crying about? People who don't know better might think I've bullied you!"
"SOB SOB! You *are* bullying me," Chen Shixian choked out, her eyes brimming with tears.
"You can spew all sorts of rubbish, but you can't just make wild accusations," Chen Pingping said, looking at her.
"Do you dare to say you didn't?" she demanded, her eyes wide.
"Of course I didn't."
"Just now, you intentionally tripped me and then took advantage of me."
Chen Pingping stared. That's it? His temper flared. "Don't think just because you're a bit pretty, every man in the world has to try and take advantage of you! Let me tell you, I'm not interested!"
WAAAH...
After those words were spoken, Chen Shixian cried even louder, feeling even more aggrieved.
He actually dared to argue back! He took advantage of me and refuses to admit it! Despicable man! Indeed, there isn't a single good man in this world.
"Go to hell! I never want to see you again!" Chen Shixian, aggrieved and with no outlet for her feelings, left these harsh words behind and strode away.
Outside Qingfeng, the spectating disciples all looked towards the one who had analyzed the situation earlier. He pondered for a long while and then said, "Playing hard to get. Women are all like that."
