Chapter 45: Unreasonable Lady
However, those people hesitating doesn\'t have a choice but to continue attacking the barrier even if they don\'t want to. That is because if they go ahead and voiced out their thoughts, chances are, they would be immediately killed by either of the two group\'s strongest warriors.
This resulted to the scene of a fairly organized masses attacking the barrier seemingly pointlessly, some of them complaining about why they should do this and why should they be the one doing this, but immediately shut their mouth when someone stronger than them were to go near them.
As he continues observing, someone eventually recognizes him, rushing towards him in a great speed, Wu Xiaotian couldn\'t help but frown as he feels an oppressive aura targeting him, coming from the figure approaching him from the distance.
With the figure arriving, he finally realized that it\'s the arrogant lady last night, Leng Yue. She refuses to speak though as she just stares at him, seemingly waiting for the other person that are going towards them to arrive here as well.
The figures were revealed as they stop in front of Wu Xiaotian one by one. The other figures being the young lady leading the all-women group, Bing Xue, and a young man that seems to be quite calculating following behind the red-haired young man that appears to be the leader of the other group, Huo Chen.
Seeing Wu Xiaotian, the two ladies were frowning a bit as they remember how the guy disrespected them when they\'re asking him to cook the last night, completely thinking that they\'re in the right acting like they did. Meanwhile, the eyes of both Huo Chen and his companion was wide open the moment they got a good look of his appearance, pleasantly surprised as if finding someone familiar.
The expression of the two doesn\'t escape Wu Xiaotian\'s sight, starting to wonder why they\'re looking at him like that. Before he managed to ask what\'s with their gazes, he was greeted by a rude remark from Leng Yue.
"So the little boy toy is awake, do you always sleep defenselessly like that to maintain your skin?" seemingly still displeased by how he acted towards him yesterday, she held nothing back while loudly mocking him, drawing the attention of the people nearby.
Seeing this, Bing Xue just shook her head as she watches her friend, curious on how the young man in front of them would deal with her.
Despite starting to get annoyed as he heard it though, Wu Xiaotian just ignores her once again as he fails to find the motivation to deal with such bothersome woman. Walking past her, he approaches Huo Chen as he\'s more interested in the reaction of the young man as if staring at someone familiar with him.
Seeing him doing it, Leng Yue is completely angered as she shouts, "How dare you ignore me!!!" before sending her palm covered with frosty qi towards Wu Xiaotian\'s back.
Seeing just how much of an unreasonable character this lady is, he was already starting to consider dealing with her here, but that line of thought was cut when the lady\'s hands were stopped by the cunning looking man beside Huo Chen.
"I suggest you stop now Leng Yue, this brother here is our Burning Soul Team\'s guest" he said before letting go of her hand, while politely asking Wu Xiaotian to go with them.
"Hah… So now that\'s why you\'re acting like that, you think hiding behind someone you know would protect you from me? Humph… You\'re thinking too much coward!!!" the lady, thinking that this is what he\'s relying on taunted him once again.
Thinking to himself just how could this lady stoop to such a low tactics, mocking in his mind how tasteless her words are, Wu Xiaotian just ignores her once again as he stood in front of Huo Chen, inspecting the young man with his senses while he smiles at him, his expression neither servile nor overbearing.
Leng Yue thinking how this is the first time a man treated her like such, was already fuming and prepares to risk herself being hurt just to land a hit on this young man\'s face, but was stopped by her best friend before doing so.
"Forget it Yue, let\'s just leave here, Huo Chen, are you really sure you want to invite this… person?" Bing Xue, asking with a hint of pressure in her voice looks towards Wu Xiaotian as she did so, her eyes filled with disappointment, both towards herself and Wu Xiaotian, thinking how she could make a mistake and feel a terrifying kind of pressure from this young man, who\'s clearly a greenhouse flower who couldn\'t do any fighting for himself.
"Don\'t you dare scare me Bing Xue, you might be stronger than me, but you won\'t come out unscathed if we fight" Huo Chen, feeling the pressure from the lady replied as he waves his hand, completely dispersing the pressure in the air.
"Fine! Do what you want!!" the lady stomped her foot in anger as she drags Leng Yue towards their camp, completely surprising Wu Xiaotian and the cunning looking young man by how he acts towards Huo Chen.
Seeing how the two of them looks towards him, the fierce looking young man shows an uncharacteristically embarrassed look as he clears his throat introducing himself to divert their attention from this troublesome topic.
"Ahem… nice to meet you, fellow cultivator, could you be Su Tian from the Thousand Roads City?" Huo Chen asked, now its Wu Xiaotian\'s turn to be surprised as he wonders how this young man knows his fake identity.
Seeing that he has no malicious intent, he decides to answer him honestly as he replies, "Yes, I am Su Tian, I wonder why fellow cultivator Huo is aware of my name?"
Hearing his confirmation, the cunning looking young man interrupted as he enters himself to the conversation by mocking Huo Chen, "Brother Huo, I\'ve already told you that he\'s the guy, right? Are your eyes for decoration? Look at this dude… you think a face like this is something you can see from everyone every da─"
Before the guy finished his sentence though, he was already sent down to the ground as if a hammered nail with only his upper head poking out of the ground, completely silencing him.
"Ah sorry about that brother, my hands slipped" Huo Chen said before returning his gaze to Wu Xiaotian, "Forget about this blabbermouth, Brother Su, you can also call me Brother Huo from now on, on behalf of the three of us all being Ling Feng\'s sworn brothers"
"Three?" Wu Xiaotian asks while his gaze eventually goes towards the cunning looking young man below them, before he once again stares towards Huo Chen, eliciting a nod from him. Seeing his surprised expression, Huo Chen starts explaining.
"Well, aside from Old Wang\'s face, he\'s overall a great and talented guy, and his temperament matches that of us, so Ling Feng unhesitatingly introduces the two of us to each other, and we pretty much hit it off"
"The fuck Ah Chen, you think you can just mock my face in front of me like that?! How dare you??" the cunning-looking young man, hearing Huo Chen\'s remarks, got out from the ground with practiced ease, simply shouting while refusing to act against Huo Chen as he knows the consequences.
"Anyway, well met Brother Su, the name is Wang Sheng, you can call me Super Handsome Brother Wang, or Handsome Wang for short" the cunning-looking young man shamelessly said as he enthusiastically shakes Wu Xiaotian\'s hand.
