Confessing to someone who thinks I'm a fat otaku, and then crying when monsters descend?

"Have you heard? Someone's climbing the Heavenly Ladder, going straight up to the fiftieth floor without stopping, and they're still going higher!"

"I know. It's said that he doesn't want to join the Tai Xuan Holy Land yet, and he came to find Mu Shenzi."

"Let's go, let's go see what's going on!"

Upon hearing the news, the disciples rushed to see what was happening, and soon several hundred people had gathered.

Even many elders in flowing white robes came to see who this person was, wanting to know why he was unwilling to join the Tai Xuan Holy Land.

Mu Qingxuan also arrived.

Looking into the distance, she saw her brother's straight figure on the ladder to heaven.

He had been practicing this move for the past few days, all for this moment...

I have never seen him put so much effort into anyone, even though he doesn't want to go down the mountain with his sister.

Mu Yun was waiting.

Suddenly, a voice came from above.

"Senior Mu!"

"What...?"

Mu Yun's body suddenly stiffened.

He had assumed that Chen Nian had come up from below and was waiting here.

Unexpectedly, Chen Nian had already crossed the fiftieth floor and was waving to him from above.

I never expected that after preparing for so long, I would still be fooled by him.

Mu Yun dared not turn around.

If he were to turn around now, he would be looking up at Chen Nian from below, and he, a dignified divine son, would be relegated to a lower position.

"Chen Nian, you've finally arrived," Mu Yun said with his back turned.

"Senior Mu, your sect is truly magnificent! The Heavenly Ladder is quite interesting too. This trip was definitely worthwhile." Chen Nian walked down with a smile.

"Which floor did you just go up to?"

"It must have been the sixty-something floor. I saw a figure flying down. It looked familiar. It really was you, senior."

Mu Yun smiled slightly: "The Tai Xuan Holy Land welcomes you. You are a guest, so let's walk and talk."

"Which way?"

Mu Yun looked upwards: "This is the Heavenly Ladder, so we should go up from the bottom. Please."

"Since Senior Mu has invited me, let's go."

So Chen Nian and Mu Yun walked side by side, starting from the fiftieth floor and chatting as they went.

"Speaking of which, I heard that the Sword Tournament of the Four Great Holy Lands is about to begin. Will Senior Mu be participating?"

"Indeed, that is a grand event held once every ten years, which will determine who will be the leader of the four holy lands for the next ten years."

"Haha, I definitely have to go to this event to see it. I also have some friends who want to join in the fun."

"No problem, I'll arrange seats for you then."

........

"Am I blind, or are they insane...?"

"Holy crap..."

The inner disciples were all stunned.

Stroll leisurely and chat atop the towering ladder, which carries immense pressure.

Both of them ate and drank as naturally as if they were eating or drinking, without pausing at all.

"They've already reached the sixtieth floor, and they still haven't stopped. Are these two even human?"

"I thought Senior Brother Mu was already a monster enough, but I never expected there was another monster just as monstrous!"

"How many floors do they want to climb before they're satisfied?"

Mu Qingxuan gazed at the figure in the distance, murmuring, "Why does that person's back look so familiar...?"

"etc!"

It was like a thunderclap striking my mind.

She remembered.

"It's him... that scoundrel... that lecher... that writer who stopped updating his novels..."

Mu Qingxuan's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, filled with astonishment.

She never imagined that such a coincidence could happen!

My brother's friend is the same scoundrel who spied on me before, God!

Thinking about this, Mu Qingxuan's emotions remained unsettled for a long time. She couldn't even imagine how she would react when her brother introduced him later.

Is he really that capable, worthy of his elder brother's high regard?

The people below were even more terrified, staring up at the sky with their mouths agape, their hearts filled with a terrifying shock.

"So Junior Brother Chen really is Mu Shenzi's friend! Master, look!" Yue Xiaomeng jumped up with joy.

Several senior students also expressed their feelings.

"At first I thought Junior Brother Chen was just bragging, but who would have thought it was actually true..."

"Haha, our Qingxuan Sect is incredibly lucky to have encountered such a remarkable person as Junior Brother Chen in that remote little place!"

"If you ask me, it's truly a blessing for Miss Ji Ya to invite Junior Brother Chen for tea; it's only right!"

Yue Xiaomeng tilted her head: "Who is Miss Ji Ya?"

"Uh, did I say anything? Junior sister, you must have misheard me."

The two disciples guarding below were so ashamed they wanted to die; they wished they could disappear into a hole in the ground.

"Reporting to the Holy Lord!"

"Mu Shenzi and an unknown youth are strolling leisurely up the Heavenly Ladder, already approaching the seventieth floor!"

"Oh?"

The Holy Lord of Tai Xuan Holy Land raised an eyebrow slightly.

"The friends that kid makes are indeed extraordinary. I'm curious, how many levels will they eventually reach?"

.......

Heavenly Ladder.

Seventy-one floors.

Chen Nian and Mu Yun stood side by side.

At this point, the pressure on the Heavenly Ladder has reached an extremely terrifying level!

It can be said that only those with truly exceptional talent and exceptional abilities could reach the seventieth floor.

now,

Chen Nian was surrounded by golden light, while Mu Yun was surrounded by azure mysterious energy.

Both of them have shown their true abilities to withstand the pressure of the Heavenly Ladder.

No matter how much physical pressure they were under, both of them wore calm smiles and moved with relaxed and gentle manners, showing no sign of hardship whatsoever.

"Senior Brother Mu, shall we continue up?" Chen Nian asked with a smile.

"Above that, you can overlook the majestic mountains and beautiful waters of the Tai Xuan Holy Land. If you can't hold on any longer, you can speak up."

"It's alright, let's continue."

Chen Nian continued upwards, and Mu Yun did not fall behind.

.......

"I've seen a ghost... They're still going up!"

What exactly are these two up to?

People no longer know how to describe these two people...

I just felt it was utterly outrageous.

The pressure of the ladder seemed to be like air to them, having no effect whatsoever.

Mu Qingxuan, however, knew.

My brother is challenging that person.

That guy's strength... is actually that strong. The day I attacked him, he barely fought back.

He still has some gentlemanly manners.

Pshaw, pshaw, pshaw! What kind of manners are there to peep at someone taking a bath? Maybe it's just guilt.

She stared intently upwards, her heart pounding in her throat.

Because the two of them were almost at the 80th floor.

That was once the highest point Mu Yun had reached!

Although Mu Yun's strength has increased significantly, his age has also grown considerably. The pressure he faces is naturally greater than before, and he may not even be able to break through the eightyth level.

.......

The Heavenly Ladder has eighty-one floors.

By the time they got here, both of them were drenched in sweat.

Chen Nian's accumulated power was almost exhausted, and Mu Yun was also nearing his limit.

His back was already soaked with sweat.

The immense pressure almost bent their backs, making them look like hunched old men talking with their backs bent.

but.....

The two of them remained calm and composed, their expressions as refreshing as a gentle spring breeze.

"I heard that Senior Mu's highest floor before was eighty floors, so we've broken the record today," Chen Nian said, bending over.

"Isn't the scenery here quite nice?" Mu Yun asked, also bending over.

"Gentle breezes and drifting clouds, shrouded in mist, it is truly a fairyland on earth."

"Now that we've seen the scenery here, let's head back."

"Aren't you going to continue?"

"My younger sister is still waiting for me downstairs."

"We need to get down there quickly."
