367: Cultivate temperament

One week, gone in a flash.

During this time, Chen Xuan stayed between his small courtyard and the Small World, never stepping out.

Tang Yueshang was also the same; ever since she escaped from Chen Xuan's small courtyard last time, she had not appeared again, unsure if she was intentionally avoiding Chen Xuan or for other reasons.

On this day, Tang Sirui and Tang Haotian came to visit together.

"Tang Brother, my father has decided to take me to the legendary Slaughter City for experience. Are you willing to come along?"

"Slaughter City? That name sounds truly horrifying. Will it be very dangerous there? If it's too dangerous, I'd rather stay in Tang Hammer Sect."

Tang Sirui's eyes flashed with a hint of disdain upon hearing this.

He's indeed a good-for-nothing; just because he suffered some setbacks, he now doesn't even dare to accept an opportunity to improve himself.

"Tang Brother, with your mindset, it's impossible to achieve anything in the Cultivation World."

"That's right, Young Chen, you should know that in this world, without experiencing setbacks and hardships, you cannot become a true strong person," Tang Haotian also said, his disappointment evident regarding Chen Xuan's choice.

"Tang Brother, although Slaughter City is dangerous, it is an excellent place for experience. As long as you can survive there, you will definitely gain something," Tang Sirui continued to persuade.

"My mind is made up, Tang Brother. You haven't experienced the humiliation I suffered in the Joyous Union Sect, so you wouldn't understand. I appreciate your good intentions, but I will not consider putting myself in such a dangerous situation."

"Tang Brother, I understand your concerns. Are you afraid that Slaughter City is too dangerous and you won't be able to survive there?"

"Actually, you don't need to worry about that at all. As long as you have enough strength, you will definitely be able to survive in Slaughter City."

"..."

Listen to yourself, are you speaking like a human, huh? Or are you saying you don't understand human speech?

"No, thank you. My mind is made up."

"Since that's the case, Young Chen, you can continue to stay in my Sect. My Tang Sirui and I will go ahead."

"Alright, here is today's Peach Blossom. When you are out, be sure to pay attention to safety!"

"..."

After receiving the Peach Blossom, Tang Sirui and Tang Haotian left without looking back.

If they stayed any longer, they were afraid they wouldn't be able to resist acting against Chen Xuan!

And Chen Xuan, after seeing them off, prepared his appearance and then walked towards the palace where Tang Yueshang resided.

Tang Sirui came back from drinking blood over there and was going to ask this person for advice on temperament issues, so he could use this as an excuse...

"I am Sister Yuechang's younger brother, please go and report to the palace!" Arriving at the entrance, Chen Xuan politely said to the maid.

Tang Yueshang herself had no cultivation, so in the Sect, she was still in a protected state.

"Young Miss doesn't have any younger brothers, please don't speak nonsense!" The maid said with a cold expression.

"Ahem, then tell Sister Yuechang that Chen Xuan has come to visit!"

The maid looked at Chen Xuan and finally went to report. But soon, she came out again.

"The Young Miss said she won't see you, Young Master please go back," the maid at the door said coldly.

"Uh, I didn't explain clearly just now. Go tell Sister Yuechang that I specifically came to give her a Life Peach Blossom, so I must see her and hand it to her personally," Chen Xuan said with a serious expression.

"How can you be so..." The maid wanted to refuse impatiently, but she swallowed her words.

"Forget it! Let him in!" Just then, Tang Yueshang's voice came from inside the palace.

Chen Xuan's lips curved slightly upwards, and he raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

Heh heh, this is what you call not seeing me, not seeing me, yet you came out yourself, wanting to see my attitude?

The maid, helpless, had no choice but to open the door and let Chen Xuan in.

As soon as he entered the palace, Chen Xuan immediately smelled a faint fragrance, which was Tang Yueshang's unique scent. He couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Why are you here?" Tang Yueshang glanced at him, then turned her head, pretending not to care.

Chen Xuan looked back and saw Tang Yueshang at this moment wearing an elegant long dress, with delicate features and a noble temperament.

"I came to give elder sister a Life Peach Blossom, and by the way..."

"By the way, what?"

"By the way, to talk to you."

"I have nothing to talk about with you. Also, I've already told you, don't call me elder sister, I'm not familiar with you!" Tang Yueshang said expressionlessly, her eyes cold, seemingly full of hostility towards Chen Xuan.

However, Chen Xuan was not angry or deterred by this. Instead, he smiled and walked closer to Tang Yueshang, holding a vibrant Life Peach Blossom in his hand, and handed it to her: "Life Peach Blossom, for you."

As a Mortal, even though Tang Yueshang's expression remained unchanged, the slightly accelerated heartbeat in her body could not escape Chen Xuan's ears.

Tang Yueshang was slightly startled, looking at Chen Xuan with some surprise. She had given him the cold shoulder twice already; as a promising young Cultivator, even if he didn't get angry, he should at least be upset. How is it that now he...

But she still tried her best to remain calm and accepted the Peach Blossom.

Looking at the vibrant petals, a hint of warmth flashed in her heart. Although she appeared indifferent on the surface, deep down, she was not as heartless as she seemed.

In fact, Tang Yueshang didn't genuinely dislike Chen Xuan; she just didn't know how to get along with him, which is why she chose to maintain a certain distance.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Tang Yueshang broke the silence, her tone still cold.

Chen Xuan gazed into Tang Yueshang's eyes and said sincerely:

"Sister Yuechang, your temperament is the most outstanding and elegant among all the people I have met. Therefore, I deeply desire to possess a temperament like yours!"

"...So?"

"So, I want to ask Sister Yuechang for advice on how to improve my temperament," Chen Xuan said with a smile.

"Improve temperament? Ask me for advice?" Tang Yueshang looked at Chen Xuan with some confusion.

"Yes, Sister Yuechang, you don't know, from the first moment I saw you, I was deeply captivated by your temperament, so... please teach me!"

Tang Yueshang was silent for a moment, sighing in relief while also feeling a tiny bit of disappointment.

She looked into Chen Xuan's eyes, seemingly pondering something. Finally, she spoke: "Alright, seeing how sincere you are, I'll tell you some methods."

"Really? Thank you, Sister Yuechang!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan was overjoyed. He came to Tang Yueshang's side and directly picked up the graceful beauty, starting to spin her around.

"Thump-thump-thump!"

Tang Yueshang's heart pounded rapidly. This was the first time in her life she had such contact with a person of the opposite sex.
