The Empress's Gigolo

Chapter 902: How Did You Become Like This?

Compared to Dayao, the society that Ren Baqian imagined actually existed in Great Xia.

There were grievances where there were people, and there were killings where there were grievances.

One couldn’t always do as they liked in society.

When stuck in a difficult situation, there was no harm going out there to find greener pastures.

The various descriptions of this society made every Chinese youth imagine life in such a society.

This was especially true in Great Xia. It was shown in the official records that there were still a total of 666 sects that currently existed.

There were various new factions that weren’t recorded. There were existing ones that died out and new ones that emerged every day. Apart from their own members and families, even their rivals couldn’t remember all of them.

It could be said that every sect that survived until today had gone through many storms.

Luohua Sect was one of them.

In fact, this sect had gained fame thousands of years ago. After the high and middle tier members perished in a battle, the [Luohua Technique] lost its most important part.

Since then, the originally top-grade sect gradually degraded to a third-grade sect.

The appearance of Su Xianxian completed the [Luohua Technique]. He was also ranked among the world’s top experts with his amazing talent.

Talking about the ability to confront enemies, he probably wouldn’t be ranked in the top 50. However, his physical ability could be ranked in the top three.

He could be considered one of the toughest to kill in the world.

Such experiences and achievements, coupled with his original mentality, gave Su Xianxian strong self-esteem and arrogance.

This was the case in Dayao back then.

Ren Baqian naturally didn’t offend him in any way.

Su Xianxian simply despised and disliked him.

As Qi Zixiao’s gigolo, what made him worthy of sitting together with experts? What made him worthy of thinking of himself as an expert?

This was without mentioning that he had tricked dozens of top experts into traveling to that remote place with those letters.

There might have been others who felt the same way Su Xianxian did, but no one expressed it the way he did. He was too impatient.

300 kilometers in two hours.

After he left, he traveled 300 kilometers in two hours before stopping to rest.

Su Xianxian merely sneered at the fact that he had offended Qi Zixiao.

Although Qi Zixiao killed Hua Sanliu in Great Xia, Su Xianxian wasn’t Hua Sanliu. If he wanted to escape, no one could stop him.

On the contrary, making her lose face in front of everyone and letting Ren Baqian know who he was made Su Xianxian extremely happy. It had given him some slack in his cultivation, which had stagnated for a long time, and made him feel more at ease.

This euphoria lasted until the next morning when a mushroom cloud rose over the place where he had departed from.

“Could that be the secret residence of a God?” Su Xianxian let out a faint smile. “I should probably go check it out.”

Although he had offended Qi Zixiao just the day before, he merely had to be more careful. As for the other masters of Dayao, they couldn’t even touch the edge of his clothes, so he didn’t even feel pressured by them at all.

This time, he slowed down on the return trip and saved some energy. It took him a while to return to the area he was at the day before.

What Su Xianxian saw was very different from what he imagined.

Secret residence? There was only a huge pit in this location. It was as if the stars in the sky had fallen and smashed into the ground.

The edge of the large pit was full of red and black liquid.

Five kilometers away from that large pit and spreading all the way to Su Xianxian, the area was completely scorched with the flames still burning in some places.

The scorching smell and a burning sensation filled the air. He felt that he would be ignited if he got closer to the pit.

“Is this the secret residence of a God?” He frowned. “Is this what happened when the secret residence was revealed?”

“Have those people gone in?”

Su Xianxian first traced the tracks of the aboriginals, but found no signs of movement. Besides, he could still see the other experts in the distance.

“They haven’t gone in? Are they waiting?”

He hid and waited a full day near the big pit. Not only did he see the experts who wanted to enter the secret residence, but they even left with the aboriginals…

This made Su Xianxian feel strange.

“What exactly happened? What happened?”

He gritted his teeth and pondered for a long time. After the aboriginals left, he went deep into the pit and found no signs of the secret residence. All he saw were bright gems on the edge of the pit.

Su Xianxian suspected that these gemstones were related to the secret residence of a God. He found himself a large bag and hid in the surroundings for five days. Those experts didn’t return, but he would occasionally see some aboriginal winged cavalry warriors carefully patrolling the periphery of the pit.

Seeing how careful they were, he suspected even more that there was a secret within.

He still didn’t find any news after staying for a few more days and had no choice but to leave.

The reason Su Xianxian left was that something terrifying was happening to him.

Hair loss!

His hair kept falling over the past few days. In just a few days, the hair loss on his head was tragic!

Under such circumstances, even though Su Xianxian didn’t want to give up, he had to leave temporarily to find a solution.

He suspected that he had been poisoned, but no signs of poisoning were found when he visited famous doctors back in Great Xia. Instead, the hair on his head continued to fall off, leaving only a few thin strands of hair in the end.

He, who had always been arrogant and thought highly of himself, almost went crazy, but still couldn’t find a solution. Even famous doctors couldn’t find the cause of his situation.

One day, Su Xianxian suddenly lost a tooth.

A Spirit Wheel expert wouldn’t even lose a tooth on his deathbed. How could this happen?

He knew that he was in deep trouble.

Su Xianxian had been plotted against!

Poison Warrior!

Ren Baqian!

How did he know that Su Xianxian would go back? How did he poison him?

How poisonous! How vicious!

He had underestimated Ren Baqian!

With some confusion, Su Xianxian returned to Luohua Sect to look through the notes of his ancestors in search of a solution. If it was still fruitless, he would have no choice but to barge into Dayao’s palace.

His first reaction was to check the records in his sect instead of looking for Ren Baqian. Even he himself felt that something was wrong. According to his previous temperament, this was absolutely impossible.

This time, he didn’t know when he had been so intensely poisoned by Ren Baqian. It made him feel deeply fearful, even more than Qi Zixiao did.

Three days after he returned to his sect, the faint voice of a spiritual woman rang out on the mountain where Luohua Sect was located.

“Su Xianxian, please come out and see me!”

“This is…?” He first got angry as his focus on the sect’s records was interrupted, but he quickly realized that the visitor sounded like Li Yuanzhu.

Wasn’t she in cahoots with those barbarians? Why did she come here?

Su Xianxian ought to meet this person.

As soon as he thought about it, he appeared outside in a flash and looked toward where the voice came from. Standing in front of him, he saw a spiritual woman wearing a robe who appeared surprised as she looked at him.

“How did you become like this?” Li Yuanzhu was astonished when she saw the person in front of her. If they hadn’t met in the past, she wouldn’t believe that this person was Su Xianxian, the chief of Luohua Sect and twenty-third most powerful expert in the world.
