This situation was completely unexpected for Su Chen, he never imagined there would be no n in Lingyue Palace!
"Alright then, I won't make things difficult for you. I'll just make do on the car for one night."
Su Chen showed a sowhat sorrowful expression on his face, one that truly made others feel sorry for him.
The girl felt deeply embarrassed upon seeing Su Chen's expression.
After all, he had just saved her and made such a simple request, yet she had refused him. It seed a bit unreasonable.
"Alright, you can co back with to stay for the night."
The girl hesitated for a mont before finally nodding.
"Isn't that inappropriate? Didn't you say n aren't allowed to stay at your place?"
Su Chen asked hesitantly.
"It should be fine for just one night."
The girl replied.
"Well, maybe it's better not to."
Su Chen mumbled, still hesitant.
"Enough with the hesitation, you're a grown man, there's nothing to worry about."
The girl said, thinking that her lady was a very kind person and it should be fine after explaining to her.
"Alright then, sorry for the trouble."
Su Chen nodded slightly, though he was actually quite happy inside.
"It's no trouble at all."
"Let's hurry up, it's already getting dark."
Su Chen urged.
"Mm."
They walked side by side towards the road, but after taking a few steps, the girl suddenly said:
"Red bean bun!"
She then ran back a few steps and picked up a yellow oil-paper wrapped square thing from the grass.
"I almost forgot the red bean bun I bought for my lady."
The girl chuckled as she walked back to Su Chen's side.
"Did you co out of the mountains just to buy a red bean bun for your lady?"
"Yes, my lady loves the red bean buns from this place."
"You ntioned your lady, are you a maid?"
"I am my lady's personal maid."
"By the way, I don't know your na yet."
"My na is ng Jiao. And you?"
"Su Chen."
"I must say, your lady is a bit too much, making you travel so far just for a red bean bun!"
"Don't you dare speak ill of my lady, she is a good person!"
The girl, who was cheerful just monts ago, imdiately glared at Su Chen with puffed cheeks upon hearing this.
"Alright, alright, your lady is a good person, a very good person, okay!"
Su Chen quickly replied, surprised at how protective the girl was of her lady.
Hearing Su Chen say this, ng Jiao let it go and continued walking forward. Soon, they reached Su Chen's car.
"Get in the car."
Su Chen called out, and the girl nad ng Jiao got in. Su Chen then continued driving.
"Actually, I lied to you just now."
ng Jiao suddenly said.
"Lied to ? About what?"
Su Chen pretended to be confused.
"The place where I live is called Lingyue Palace, it's not my ho."
"What is Lingyue Palace?"
"It's a power in the Martial Arts World."
ng Jiao then began to introduce Lingyue Palace to Su Chen, thinking it was necessary since she was about to take him inside.
Through ng Jiao's introduction and his own careful questioning, Su Chen gained further understanding of Lingyue Palace.
Lingyue Palace had a Palace Master with an only daughter who was the lady ng Jiao spoke of.
Additionally, all disciples within the palace were female, not a single male.
"Are all the won in your palace there because they've been hurt by n and hate all n, so there are no n around?"
Su Chen couldn't help but ask, thinking of the Yihua Palace in the story "The Proud Twins," which was also entirely female, except for Hua Wuque.
"Of course not. We only have won in Lingyue Palace because the cultivation techniques we practice are only suited for won."
ng Jiao pouted slightly.
Upon hearing this, Su Chen felt much more at ease.
If Lingyue Palace was like the Yihua Palace on TV, full of won who hated n, he would be in trouble the mont he stepped in.
If that were the case, it would be quite unfortunate for him!
After another half-hour drive, Su Chen and ng Jiao got out of the car, with Su Chen carrying a package. Ahead was a single-plank bridge, beneath which lay a deep gorge of over ten ters.
The single-plank bridge was about a ter wide, making it impossible to drive across.
The two crossed the bridge and walked through a long, dense forest, which eventually opened up before them.
Standing before Su Chen was a grand structure encompassing several hundred acres!
Seeing such a magnificent building deep in the mountains, Su Chen couldn't help but marvel!
This Lingyue Palace was indeed a top power in the Huaxia Martial Arts World!
On either side of the main gate stood three guards, each with impressive cultivation.
Seeing ng Jiao escorting a man inside, they didn't say much.
Though there were no n in Lingyue Palace, it didn't an no n ever visited. If representatives from other forces ca, would they not be allowed in?
However, n were never allowed to stay overnight, which was true. This was mainly because it was an all-won environnt, and having n stay overnight was very inconvenient, leading to the establishnt of such a rule.
Su Chen followed ng Jiao inside, surveying the area. He wondered which of these many buildings housed the dicine Pavilion.
He had a few guesses in mind, though he wasn't entirely sure.
Soon, they reached an inner area.
"Wait here, I'll go inform my lady."
ng Jiao said before entering a side hall.
"The Fei Family is too audacious! They even dare to insult people from our Lingyue Palace. Do they really think we won't dare touch them just because Shengyi Gate is backing them?"
Soon, an angry and delicate voice emanated from within.
After a while, ng Jiao erged and said to Su Chen:
"Su Chen, my lady requests your presence."
Su Chen then followed ng Jiao inside, only to be stunned by what he saw!
A woman dressed in white sat before him, her long hair cascading down, her features seemingly sculpted to perfection.
Even while seated, one could sense her graceful yet proud figure!
She resembled a beautiful lady stepping out of an ancient painting!
Her deanor was sowhat similar to Pei Man, but with an added aura of cold pride!
Upon seeing Su Chen enter, she imdiately stood from her seat and said:
"Thank you, Mr. Su, for your righteous aid in rescuing ng Jiao today."
Seeing how young Su Chen was, she couldn't help but be a little surprised. She knew that the young master of the Fei Family had reached the half-step ridian Expansion Realm. The fact that Su Chen could defeat him with one move demonstrated the depth of his cultivation!
However, she was certain that Su Chen had not entered the ridian Expansion Realm; he must be at the brink of it!
Of course, such cultivation wasn't particularly astonishing to her, although it was quite rare in the secular world!
