A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

Lu Luo was terrified, worried that Ye Chen would really take his cave dwelling. He hurriedly took out his tools and wood and skillfully began to build doors and windows...

The clanging sounds filled the courtyard, and it soon began to take shape.

Seeing this, Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction, muttering to himself, "This kid really is cut out to be a carpenter. Cultivation has really been a waste of his talent..."

"Knock knock knock!"

A knocking sound came from outside the cave...

"Is Senior Brother Xu there?"

Hearing the noise, Ye Chen turned to look at the door, a hint of doubt flashing across his face...

"Who is the one?"

Judging from the voice, it was clear that this was a disciple I didn't recognize. What did he want from me?

Aside from Lin Ningxue, he had no other friends in the outer sect of the Qingyun Sect...

In addition, the prestige he had built up in the outer sect over the past few days meant that almost no one dared to cause him trouble.

For a moment, he felt a little uneasy...

Could it be that they're looking for the real "Xu Xiao"?

If his identity is exposed, he'll be in big trouble...

"They're here!"

Ye Chen took a deep breath, feigning composure as he walked over. He secretly planned that if the person was indeed "Xu Xiao's" friend, he would have to strike first and find some excuse to shut the other person up...

Hearing the commotion, Lu Luo, who was working nearby, couldn't help but look up at the gate, a hint of surprise flashing through his mind...

"Anyone else who's not afraid of death dares to challenge Senior Brother Xu?"

"Are you out of your mind?"

He avoids them like the plague, yet people still come to him willingly?

"Boom!"

The stone door slowly opened...

Ye Chen stepped out of the cave and looked up at the disciples standing outside the door, but he didn't recognize them at all...

This disciple was young, dressed in a magnificent gold-embroidered robe, and his aura was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining...

Just as Ye Chen was pondering how to make the first move, the other party suddenly clasped his hands in a respectful salute.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Xu!"

Ye Chen was taken aback, realizing that the other person didn't know Xu Xiao. His anxiety immediately subsided, and he looked at him with a puzzled expression...

"You wanted to see me...is there something you need?"

"You're not here to challenge me, are you?"

Since it was a disciple he didn't know who had come to his door, he couldn't think of any other purpose besides challenging them...

It's just a disciple at the seventh level of Qi Refining challenging me, isn't that courting death?

Even if he concealed his cultivation level, it was still at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Moreover, he had just taught a lesson to several Foundation Establishment disciples from the Enforcement Hall yesterday, and the news had spread throughout the outer sect. Most disciples had already heard about it, and unless they were fools, they would never challenge him...

Is this guy crazy? Who gave him the courage?

Could it be that they, like me, have hidden their cultivation level?

As soon as he finished speaking, the disciple in front of him quickly waved his hand and explained.

"Senior Brother Xu, you've misunderstood. I'm not here to challenge you; I'm here to ask for your help..."

As they spoke, the disciple swiftly pulled a storage bag from his robes and eagerly handed it to Ye Chen...

"My name is Wang Fugui..."

"These are one hundred Grade Two Spirit Replenishing Pills. Please accept this small token of my appreciation, Senior Brother!"

Ye Chen's eyes lit up. He reached out and took the storage bag, glancing at it. A hint of surprise flashed across his face...

This kid is pretty sensible...

He was in dire need of spirit-replenishing pills when they were delivered right to his door.

"Junior Brother Wang, you've given me these pills...what do you want me to do for you?"

Ye Chen weighed the storage bag in his hand, already tempted. He wouldn't refuse anything unless it was too difficult.

Wang Fugui was overjoyed to see Ye Chen accept the pills and quickly said respectfully.

"I've heard that Senior Brother is incredibly strong, able to easily deal with even Foundation Establishment stage inner disciples..."

"I would like to ask my senior brother to help me challenge the disciple residing in Cave Number Ten on Tianling Peak..."

"Um?"

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, looked at Wang Fugui in front of him, and asked with a curious expression.

"Do you have a grudge against him?"

"Or have you taken a fancy to Cave Number Ten?"

He secretly wondered if this kid was using him as a thug?

For just disciplining a disciple, a reward of one hundred second-grade spirit-replenishing pills seems quite good...

After all, very few outer disciples could produce so many second-grade pills.

Wang Fugui, standing before me, clearly comes from a wealthy family, which explains his abundance of cultivation resources...

This deal is a guaranteed money-maker!

Meeting Ye Chen's gaze, Wang Fugui shook his head and said frankly.

"To be honest, Senior Brother, I don't know him, and I'm not after the number ten cave dwelling..."

"In another month, it will be the selection of inner disciples for the Qingyun Sect. According to the regulations, the sect will select disciples from the top 100 cave dwellings of the eighteen outer peaks..."

"Disciples residing in the thirty caves at the foot of each mountain peak are almost all able to successfully enter the inner sect and become inner sect disciples..."

Upon hearing Wang Fugui's explanation, Ye Chen suddenly understood...

"So that's how it is..."

"You want to seize Cave Number Ten ahead of time and use this opportunity to smoothly enter the inner sect?"

Lin Ningxue had mentioned this to him before, but Ye Chen hadn't taken it to heart. After all, he was confident in his strength to enter the inner sect and wasn't worried at all...

"Yes..." Wang Fugui nodded sincerely, "If I can successfully enter the inner sect in a month, I will definitely not forget my senior brother's kindness, and I will repay him handsomely..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately patted his chest and agreed.

"Alright, I see you're a straightforward person, I'll help you with this!"

"I'll take you to challenge the disciple in Cave Number Ten right now..."

Ye Chen said earnestly, casually stuffing the storage bag into his pocket...

Wang Fugui was overjoyed and immediately said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Senior Brother!"

He had heard about Ye Chen's help in seizing Cave Number Twenty-One, and the idea of ​​asking him for help had taken root in his mind...

Later, in the martial arts arena, he witnessed Ye Chen defeat the highly skilled Cheng Tieniu and Lu Yuanfeng. After hearing that Ye Chen had defeated an inner disciple with Foundation Establishment cultivation, he became even more certain of his idea...

If we can get Ye Chen to help, the number ten cave dwelling on Tianling Peak will be easily within our grasp...

"Wait a moment... I'll be right back."

Ye Chen turned and walked into the cave, just in time to meet Lü Luo's gaze...

He was peeking out, trying to see what was going on, when Ye Chen caught him red-handed...

"Senior brother... I'm working, it'll be done soon..."

Lu Luo was startled and quickly and efficiently began making the door panel...

Ye Chen didn't pay any attention, glanced at Lü Luo, and gave instructions.

"You stay here and focus on repairs. I'm going to raid a cave dwelling; I'll be right back..."

After saying that, he turned and left...

Lu Luo stood there, stunned, staring blankly at Ye Chen's departing figure...

"How about we seize a cave dwelling?"

"Which unlucky guy has offended our senior brother this time?"
