The Legend Of Sword God

Su Mei

Jian Chen shook his head and got up to look at the bread and meat that Su Mei had brought, and suddenly started saying, "Some bread and meat, isn't that worth five spiritual stones. Did you buy it?"

Su Mei nodded as she passed the bread to Jian Chen and lowered her head. "Su Mei did buy it."

"Why did you buy it? Didn't I give you our last five spiritual stones so you could break through to the third stage of Qi training?" There was anger when Jian Chen asked this.

"Well... That's true. But... Because...."

"But what?!" Jian Chen began to feel his blood start to rise at Su Mei's stuttering reply.

“That... That's because...” Su Mei's voice suddenly became very low and faint sobs began to emerge from her mouth.

Knowing that this woman would cry, Jian Chen felt unable to bear it and sighed helplessly.

Not because of anything, spiritual stones were the main and most important material for cultivating the body. Su Mei, even though she had a poor physical condition, she had the advantage of cultivating much better than him. At the second Qi Training stage her was at now, her only needed one more breakthrough to be able to take part in the outer disciple selection a month later.

Giving her the last five spiritual stones, Jian Chen hoped that Su Mei would use them to train and eventually break through to the third Qi training. When that happened, her ultimately had the potential to become an outer disciple with much better resources than a trial disciple.

But what happened, this girl apparently bought herself spiritual stones for food.

Jian Chen really didn't know whether to feel happy or sad at his thoughts."I told you many times, if you use it as an aid to break through to the third stage of qi training, you will have a chance of becoming an outer disciple of Yanjiang Sect and have much better resources than nowAt that time, you can often contact me outside and---"

"No!" Before Jian Chen finished his words, Su Mei immediately stopped him and raised her head.

Staring at Jian Chen's face with her clear, flawless eyes, Su Mei firmly said, "If only Su Mei had managed to break through and become an outer disciple alone without Big Brother Chen, then Su Mei would have preferred to never break through at all!"

"Well..."

Jian Chen immediately fell silent and seriously began to look into Su Mei's eyes to see her deeper, but he only saw determination and pure sincerity between her eyes.

"Are you sure?"

"Su Mei is very sure!"

"If I couldn't become an outer disciple and was expelled by the Yanjin Sect, then becoming a vagabond with no power or wealth would be the same as committing suicide, are you sure you would still continue---"

"Don't say anything else. Brother Chen is my only friend and family. If you really have to leave the sect and die in the outside world, as long as you are with Brother Chen, Su Mei will always follow him!"

Hearing those words, Jian Chen suddenly smiled and felt deeply touched by her determination. Subconsciously he also immediately nodded in agreement, but he wouldn't let bad things happen.

Never!

As a man, Jian Chen promised in his heart that he would never do that. Even though his body was extremely weak and there were mysterious things preventing him from continuing to improve, he believed in himself that one day, the stupid and weak Jian Chen would change.

No!

With Su Mei's sincerity, Jian Chen began to think that his goal now was not just to show himself to others! But he must protect and make happy something more precious than someone's confession, that is his family and only friend, Su Mei!

Jian Chen finally smiled and took the bread from Su Mei's hand and said, "In that case, when I break through the third Qi Training tomorrow, you should be at the same level, okay?"

Su Mei finally smiled and nodded heavily, promising.

When he saw Su Mei's smile, Jian Chen began to think that Su Mei's beauty and grace were only hidden by the ugliness of her face. If the disgusting black spots on her face disappeared, Jian Chen was sure that Su Mei would become a peerless beauty.

Maybe, if he becomes so strong that he can do anything, he can change she appearance, right?

Jian Chen smiled again, and stretched out his hand to stroke Su Mei's hair.

“Hehehe…” Su Mei laughed softly at Jian Chen's concern, and then seemed to remember something. "That's right! Brother Chen, since it's the start of the month, the Sect has given us a monthly allotment of spiritual stones."

Su Mei took out forty blue spiritual stones from a small pocket on her clothes, and gave half of it to Jian Chen, “Each person is twenty spiritual stones a month, so this is big brother Chen’s.”

Jian Chen shook his head and said, "Now that I think about it, take it all for yourself. Use it as---"

"Very good! Really good!" A cold voice suddenly sounded from a distance, and immediately stopped Jian Chen's words.

Just when he saw a young man in his twenties, looking big, strong, and tall with muscles walking towards him, Jian Chen immediately stood up while frowning.

"Shao Da, what are you doing here?"

"What am I doing here?" The young man who was called Shao Da smiled funny, and stopped three meters away from him.

Looking between Jian Chen and Su Mei with a look of disdain, his gaze finally fell on the spiritual stone in Su Mei's hand and snorted. "It seems I've been lied to if you only have twenty spiritual stones each month. This is clearly an offense that can never be justified."

"What do you mean?!" Jian Chen was already alert and felt that something bad would happen here.

"Hehehe..." Shao Da suddenly grinned and coldly replied, "You should know what will happen if you don't provide the monthly ration according to the agreement, and you should also remember that if there is a violation, the monthly ration will be increased many times over.

"So, because you have lied for so many years, the monthly allowance you have to pay from now on is one hundred stones per person."

"Damn it! Do you want to rob!?" Jian Chen suddenly felt extremely angry and shouted.

"If I want to rob, so what? Do you want to fight with the first level qi training cultivation that you have? Ants like you, do you have the right to fight me?!” Shao Da grinned and laughed when he saw Jian Chen’s face start to turn red.

"Remember, in this world, the strong is the law, and now I am the law of your life and death!"
