203: Just reach out

Slap—

Purple Kite abruptly slapped his hand away.

The next moment, she angrily planted her hands on her hips and roared at Chen Qingxuan, "Are you insane? Did I not shock you hard enough yesterday?"

"Just joking around!"

Chen Qingxuan was unperturbed.

"What's wrong?"

The three women cast puzzled glances their way.

"..."

Purple Kite shot Chen Qingxuan a glare but said nothing more.

Or perhaps, at this moment, she was in no mood to dwell on Chen Qingxuan's act of insubordination, once again stunned by the methods of this Rebellious Disciple.

Not only could he create a space allowing free entry and exit, but the scenery within could also change at will... Why couldn't her own Spatial power achieve such a level;

Yet Chen Qingxuan could?

"How did you comprehend Spatial power?" Purple Kite stared fixedly at Chen Qingxuan, her expression carrying a hint of seeking guidance.

"Want to learn?" The corner of Chen Qingxuan's mouth curled into a slight arc as he smiled, "That can't be taught. It's purely a matter of personal effort."

"..."

Purple Kite gritted her silver teeth;

For some reason, perhaps because she was too petty... she always felt Chen Qingxuan was incredibly punchable.

Indescribably punchable!

After a long while.

Purple Kite took a deep breath and said, "It's best that you have such a trump card. Then the next phase of the plan can proceed smoothly, and I won't have to worry too much."

"What plan?"

Chen Qingxuan raised an eyebrow.

At the same time, The three women also looked over with curiosity.

Having reached this point, Purple Kite stopped keeping them in suspense, "Have you heard of the Hundred States Tournament?"

"No!"

The four of them looked at each other and all shook their heads.

"The so-called Hundred States Tournament can be simply understood as a martial arts competition, but only the young talents from the top one hundred provinces can participate, with an age limit of under one hundred and eighty..."

Before Purple Kite could finish, Chen Qingxuan interrupted, "Wait, young talents... one hundred and eighty years old? Did I hear that right?"

"Don't interrupt me!"

Purple Kite snapped irritably;

Immediately after, she continued, "The Hundred States Tournament is held once every hundred years. It can be said that, aside from the Immortal Assessment, it is the most solemn and serious grand ceremony in the Three Thousand Divine Provinces. Lower planes don't even have the qualification to watch, let alone participate. At that time, all the young talents capable of joining the Hundred States Tournament will flock to it, as it's also a great opportunity to make a name for oneself."

"If you can deliver a brilliant performance at the Hundred States Tournament, then those so-called forces under the Immortal groups will inevitably extend olive branches to you. You can naturally blend in among them. After all, that's also your forte. Initially, I was worried you might be in danger, but now that I've seen your Spatial power, I needn't worry anymore."

Purple Kite said this last part while looking directly at Chen Qingxuan.

Chen Qingxuan pointed at himself, "You mean... have me participate in the Hundred States Tournament... to get close to the forces under the Immortal groups for you... and then investigate the culprit who harmed you back then?"

"You could say that!" Purple Kite did not deny it.

"Heh~"

Chen Qingxuan laughed.

The next moment, he spread his hands and looked at The three women, "What do you think, is this method good?"

"..."

The three women exchanged glances, their expressions varied.

"Are you kidding me?" The next moment, Chen Qingxuan looked at Purple Kite and said, "You're using me to execute a plan without discussing it with me first, and you just decided on your own?"

Purple Kite lifted her small face, "Didn't you say our master and disciple pair share a deep bond? What's wrong with asking you to help me?"

"I'll draft your..."

Chen Qingxuan's mouth twitched violently;

Meeting Purple Kite's scrutinizing gaze, he retorted, "Why didn't you mention our deep bond when you were shocking me? Good grief, now you bring up our deep bond."

"You..."

Purple Kite stopped herself;

The next moment, she first said, "Send the three of them out first. I have something to say to you alone."

Chen Qingxuan did not refuse.

After sending The three women back to the cloud boat, he went straight to the point, "Well? Do you want to beg me in private?"

"Beg you my head!" Purple Kite crossed her arms, lifting her non-existent tender chest, "You've stuck me in this form... Was it wrong for me to shock you? If you could undo the effects of the xiang ji sui fruit... I'd let you shock me back."

"This... what does it have to do with the xiang ji sui fruit." Chen Qingxuan said guiltily, "Besides, that matter about the xiang ji sui fruit was settled with the shock. On the way back... why did you shock me twice more?"

"See for yourself!"

Purple Kite irritably pulled out the black silk stockings and love powder, tossing them in front of Chen Qingxuan, "These were given to Qian You by Susu and Qingxue. Shouldn't you be shocked?"

"Huh?"

Chen Qingxuan's expression shifted;

Although he didn't know exactly what had happened, he could guess some of it, "black silk stockings don't suit Qian You... she'd suit ultra-thin glossy stockings."

"?"

Purple Kite didn't understand;

If she had understood, she likely would have already discharged electricity.

"But you still shouldn't shock me!" Chen Qingxuan raised an eyebrow, "They're not mine, go shock those two!"

"You..."

Purple Kite was both angry and amused.

The next moment, she said directly, "To be honest, the rewards for the Hundred States Tournament will be extremely generous, and with your strength... I don't think it's a problem. The most crucial part is how you'll handle the tests and your situation after being recruited. That shouldn't be difficult for you either... Even if there is real danger, you can hide in here... and I can protect you."

Chen Qingxuan said calmly, "Do I look like someone who cares about rewards?"

"You may not care about rewards, but you must want the lotus of life, right?" Purple Kite gritted her teeth, "Although I'm not sure if the lotus of life will be among the rewards this time, this is an opportunity to obtain it."

"Huh?"

Chen Qingxuan's expression changed slightly;

The importance of the lotus of life to him was, of course, self-evident.

And such an important grand ceremony as the Hundred States Tournament was indeed an opportunity to acquire the lotus of life.

Seeing Chen Qingxuan's interest piqued, Purple Kite pressed her advantage, "Rest assured, although you're a scoundrel, a Rebellious Disciple, with no semblance of a Revered Master or a Disciple... I wouldn't push you into a pit of fire."

"..."

Chen Qingxuan stroked his chin in thought.

It wasn't that he feared the dangers of participating in the Hundred States Tournament. After all, as Purple Kite said, now that he held the Void Between Nothingness, who could kill him?

Although he was always getting shocked by Purple Kite... she was the New God King.

An existence even more terrifying than Immortal-level experts.

Naturally, she couldn't be compared to the participants of the Hundred States Tournament.

What gave him pause was that he currently still wanted to low-key gather incense value, expand the scale of his statues further across the Three Thousand Divine Provinces, and earn more incense value to enhance his strength.

Participating in the Hundred States Tournament went against his initial plan... he didn't know if it was good or bad.

"What more do you have to hesitate about?"

At this moment, Purple Kite spoke again, gritting her silver teeth, "You just reached your hand into my mouth... and I haven't even settled that with you, you Rebellious Disciple... don't let me down."

Chen Qingxuan snapped back to reality, "I was just reaching out."

"What else did you want to reach?"
