"That's because you and I, my dear wife, are of one mind!"
Su Chen jumped down from the railing, a hint of a smile on his lips:
"Co here, wife, let introduce soone to you."
At that mont, the person who looked like a chivalrous warrior also climbed down from the railing, although now he looked more like an elder from the Beggar's Sect.
"This is my good brother, Sun Yang. You can just call him little Sun."
Su Chen wrapped an arm around the man and introduced him to Lin Ruoxue with a warm smile.
"Aren't you two supposed to be enemies?"
Lin Ruoxue asked sowhat hesitantly, sensing a completely different atmosphere from the hostile tension below just monts before.
In fact, Lin Ruoxue had also just arrived and hadn't witnessed the previous friendly chat between the two, or else she wouldn't have been so surprised.
"Husband, how did you get hurt?"
Lin Ruoxue had been too embarrassed to look at Su Chen closely because she was caught hiding.
But when she finally looked up, she noticed a deep wound below his chest and above his stomach, from which blood was still flowing, and she exclaid in shock.
Then, she noticed that on Su Chen's shoulder and thigh there were slashes as well, although they were not as severe as the one above his stomach.
"How did you end up like this?"
Lin Ruoxue was deeply pained to see Su Chen in such a state.
"It's nothing, wife. I was just sparring with little Sun just now,"
Su Chen said to Lin Ruoxue with a gentle smile.
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruoxue turned to angrily question Sun Yang, but after seeing that his wounds were even more nurous and severe than Su Chen's, she swallowed the words she was about to speak.
However, her gaze towards him was still quite unfriendly.
At this ti, Lin Ruoxue noticed that even the once smooth and level cent ground was now overturned, with sand and stones scattered everywhere!
She couldn't help but feel alard; what on earth had these two done to make such a ss? Was this really just sparring?
Su Chen, seeing Lin Ruoxue looking like she wanted to devour Sun Yang, felt quite helpless.
"I'm sorry!"
Sun Yang rarely seed a little embarrassed as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruoxue huffed before quickly saying:
"Husband, why are you still standing around? Let's hurry to the hospital and get that taken care of!"
"There's no need, wife. It's just a scratch,"
Su Chen chuckled:
"Have you forgotten, my wife, that your husband is a doctor?"
Lin Ruoxue rembered this fact upon hearing his words, but she still said with concern:
"But you're bleeding. It would be better to go to the hospital for disinfection and bandaging."
"Don't worry, it's nothing, just a scratch,"
Su Chen said casually:
"Oh right, I didn't finish introducing him. This is little Sun, little Sun, this is your sister-in-law Lin Ruoxue, you can just call her 'big sister-in-law'."
"Big..."
Sun Yang had just begun to speak when he looked at Su Chen with confusion:
"I seem to be three years older than you."
"So what? In our world of Martial Arts, we don't speak of seniority by age, but by realm. What, do you have an objection?"
Su Chen glanced at him sidelong.
"Well, big sister-in-law, hello!"
Hearing this, Sun Yang could only greet Lin Ruoxue.
As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face. Lin Ruoxue nodded slightly and said, "Hello."
Then she added, "You should go to the hospital too, to be on the safe side."
She could tell that her husband and this sowhat eccentric man seed to actually have a good relationship.
But she was still indignant that this fellow had caused her husband to get hurt so badly.
After all, a woman can sotis be a bit petty!
"Thank you, it's okay, I can handle it myself."
After hearing Lin Ruoxue's words, Sun Yang was still slightly stunned before he said:
"Alright, Su Chen, I'm leaving first."
"I'll see you out."
Then Su Chen's voice followed.
"Honey, why don't I see Mr. Sun out; you should head to the hospital first."
Lin Ruoxue quickly took the initiative to say, although she was still a little mad at Sun Yang.
But after all, Su Chen was injured, how could he drive?
"It's fine, don't worry, we just happen to have sothing to discuss."
Su Chen smiled and then walked downstairs with Sun Yang, leaving Lin Ruoxue standing alone on the rooftop.
Watching the two disappear, Lin Ruoxue felt even more confused; these two had managed to flip the concrete floor with just a sparring session.
Moreover, despite such serious injuries, both refused to go to the hospital and didn't treat the situation seriously at all.
Lin Ruoxue felt that the people her husband seed to know were hardly ever normal; they were all so strange!
......
A Buick zood through the roads of Yandu. It wasn't rush hour, so it wasn't too crowded.
"Where are you headed next?"
Su Chen drove while casually asking.
"Island Country."
"To see whom?"
"Watanabe Yu."
Su Chen, hearing this na, was slightly taken aback, then said:
"His ninjutsu has reached maturity. Be careful on your own, but with your current cultivation, it shouldn't be too much of a problem."
"Just beware if he has advanced to perfection in the past two years; in that case, don't be reckless."
Worried, Su Chen added another caution, even though he knew Sun Yang was unlikely to listen to him.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be nicknad 'Martial Fool', constantly seeking challenges everywhere.
"Don't worry, in the fight with you just now, I think I saw the threshold."
Sun Yang said faintly.
"Really? That's great! If that's the case, there should be no problem."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen imdiately showed a look of surprise. Sun Yang had been challenging others all these years primarily to break into the realm of half-step ridian Expansion through fighting experts!
Now that he saw the threshold, it ant there was hope, and Su Chen genuinely felt happy for him.
You mustn't underestimate this threshold; many at the Qi Refinent Peak spend their whole lives unable to see, much less reach it!
"I have to thank you for that!"
Sun Yang looked at Su Chen seriously and said.
He knew that when Su Chen sparred with him just now, he had intentionally suppressed his cultivation to stimulate Sun Yang's potential!
Otherwise, he felt that it would have been impossible for him to inflict any wounds on Su Chen.
"Do we still need to say that between us? That's too formal!"
Su Chen said with a smile.
Having wandered around for so many years, he had certainly made so like-minded friends, and Sun Yang was one of them.
"But the people from Island Country are always cunning. If they can't win fair and square, they might resort to underhanded tactics, so be extra careful."
Su Chen, still uneasy, cautioned him again:
"If you need help at any point, just call ."
After dropping him at the airport, Su Chen returned ho. They weren't the type for long goodbyes.
Standing at the airport entrance, Sun Yang watched the car fade into the distance, muttering:
"Lost again, the eighth ti, right? To think that even after his Dantian was shattered, and I challenged him again, he is still not soone I can beat!"
"This guy always leaves one speechless."
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Sun Yang walked into the airport…
