Chapter 706 I Can Help You
Talking to a little sister about this kind of topic feels oddly interesting.
"Alas..." Netherworld Empress sighed heavily.
After a while, she spoke, "The older my body gets, the higher my Combat Power, but paradoxically, my intelligence decreases. When my Combat Power reaches its Peak, my intelligence will be about that of a three-year-old child..."
Holy moly!
Su Chen became even more interested in the little sister who was over a hundred years old.
The older you are, the higher the Combat Power.
The higher the Combat Power, the lower the IQ.
"Didn't you notice last night? I barely spoke," said Netherworld Empress. "That's because I didn't know how to organize my words."
Su Chen recalled last night's scene.
Indeed, Netherworld Empress didn't talk much.
She only exchanged a few words with him.
"Being able to string together that much speech was already my limit; do you think I have the ability to do anything else?" Netherworld Empress said with a face full of sighs.
Having lived for over a hundred years and yet never had a boyfriend.
Truly a tragic drama.
Seeing this, Su Chen coughed slightly and said, "Ahem, well, if you don't mind, I can help you."
"How can you help me?" Netherworld Empress looked at Su Chen with a puzzled gaze.
"You know, the next time you transform into a real woman, I might be so kind as to be your boyfriend," Su Chen said with an evil grin.
Netherworld Empress giggled and said, "Sure, as long as you can still talk to me then."
Mockery and sarcasm filled Netherworld Empress's expression.
This hurt Su Chen a little.
Indeed, during Netherworld Empress's peak Combat Power, she was much stronger than his sister-in-law.
Subduing Netherworld Empress seemed nearly impossible.
But just because Su Chen wasn't strong enough now didn't mean he couldn't be in the future!
One day, he'd subdue this ancient monster.
"However, you are the most talented young person I've seen. Only twenty years old and already reached the Saint Realm," said Netherworld Empress suddenly.
Su Chen was astonished.
He didn't expect Netherworld Empress to see through his strength at a glance.
"Please, I've lived for over a hundred years. Moreover, when I become a child, my intelligence and insight reach their peak," said Netherworld Empress with a curl of her lip, seeing Su Chen's flabbergasted look.
"Hmm, if you keep up this pace and train for another twenty or thirty years, maybe you will indeed surpass me one day," said Netherworld Empress as if it was a serious matter.
Twenty or thirty years...
Su Chen's face twitched.
Grinding hard for twenty or thirty years just to be Netherworld Empress's boyfriend? He wasn't that desperate.
But he believed that with his talent, he wouldn't need twenty or thirty years to reach Netherworld Empress's level.
"Hehe, don't doubt it. Saying twenty or thirty years is actually putting it lightly. Every time I undergo Nirvana, my strength dramatically increases," said the young girl proudly, as if she saw through Su Chen's thoughts.
"Alright, you make sense, Granny!" Su Chen was completely speechless.
Then he said, "So now, can you leave my room?"
"Why should I go?" Netherworld Empress said with a puzzled look on her face.
"Please, this is my room. You don't plan to live in my room forever, do you?" Su Chen looked at Netherworld Empress as if he were looking at a monster.
"Why not? Every time after Nirvana, my Combat Power drops to one ten-thousandth of its original level, and it takes at least a month to recover to one percent of its former strength, so you'll have to protect me for at least a month," said the young girl with an indisputable tone.
"Um, what makes you think I should protect you?" Su Chen frowned.
"Because you're a man, aren't men supposed to protect women?" the young girl said matter-of-factly.
Su Chen glanced at her.
He said, "Are you a woman right now?"
"How am I not a woman?" The young girl immediately retorted.
Su Chen opened the window, pointed at Liu Jie standing in the distance, and said, "Look clearly, that's what you call a woman!"
Looking unconvinced, the young girl said, "I look much better than her when in my human form!"
"That's only if you transform into your human form, plus it's only for a few days; I'm not interested," Su Chen shrugged indifferently.
"Su Chen, I dare you to say that again!" The young girl was somewhat angry.
"Little Bean!"
"Su Chen, I'll bite you to death!" The young girl lunged at Su Chen with a fierce look.
"Damn, you really bite!"
The two of them frolicked together.
Eventually, both of them got tired and calmed down.
"So, Granny, are you really sure you want to live in my room?" Su Chen asked.
"I'm certain, very certain!"
"Then you're not afraid... hehe!" Su Chen's face revealed a knowingly sly expression.
"Forget it!" But ultimately, Su Chen turned away, feigning disdain.
Seeing this, a satisfied look appeared on the young girl's face.
Then she said, "Your decency has saved your life."
"What do you mean?" Su Chen asked.
"Actually, within one day of my Nirvana, I can use an attack ten times stronger than the Saint Realm. If you had dared to be disrespectful just now, I would have killed you," said the young girl.
"Holy crap, you're not kidding, right?" Su Chen's eyes widened.
Suddenly, an incredibly powerful force erupted from the young girl's body.
That power.
Even Su Chen felt a shiver.
But it was only for an instant.
Then it disappeared.
It seemed that the young girl was not joking.
A bead of cold sweat slid down from Su Chen's forehead.
Damn it.
This seemingly harmless young girl had such deep schemes.
But it wasn't a big deal.
A power ten times that of the Saint Realm certainly could kill Su Chen.
However, he's not like an ordinary Saint Realm now.
After merging with Black Stone, he gained a self-healing ability and survival skills far beyond Ordinary People.
Even if half of his body was blown away, it could regrow.
Maybe Netherworld Empress couldn't really kill him after all.
