Strongest Replication

Regarding Aunt Rong's invitation, Chu Zhongtian only nodded his head and did not say anything else. Because he knew that it would be very difficult for him to come here again in a short period of time after he finished attending the Ranking Competition.    

"Mr Chu, congratulations. You have also broken through to the Stage!" After consolidating the Stage, Lan Ling'er opened her eyes. When she saw Chu Zhongtian who had broken through to the Third Layer of the Body Refining Period, she couldn't help but congratulate him.    

"Congratulations!"    

"Ling, you only managed to break through to the Fourth Layer of the Body Refining Period with my help. Your foundation is very unstable right now, so I hope you can go home and cultivate peacefully for a period of time." After Lan Ling'er and Chu Zhongtian congratulated each other, Aunt Rong, who had already observed Lan Ling'er's breakthrough, specially reminded her.    

"Aunt Rong, it was not easy for me to escape from home. If I go back now... With my father's character, it will be difficult for me to come out in the future." Hearing that Aunt Rong actually wanted her to return to the family to cultivate, Lan Ling'er was instantly unhappy.    

During the few days that she sneaked out of the house, she had seen many things that she could not see at home. She had also made many friends, so she was really unwilling to go back.    

"No, if you want to strengthen your foundation and not affect your future breakthroughs, you must return to the family now and use the family's secret realm to consolidate your foundation."    

"Of course, if you don't want to go back, then I can only send you back myself." Aunt Rong's unquestionable attitude made Lan Ling'er immediately pull down her face.    

Because she was too familiar with Aunt Rong's character and knew that she was a person who kept her word. As long as it was something that she decided on, no one could change her mind. Even her overbearing father could not change Aunt Rong's thoughts.    

The depressed Lan Ling'er turned her head and saw Chu Zhongtian sitting at the side. She immediately thought of something and begged in a weak tone, "Aunt Rong, can I invite Chu Zhongtian to our house to have a guest?"    

Inviting a friend to our house to be a guest was originally something worth celebrating. Especially this friend was very outstanding. He might very well be a peerless expert that could affect the global situation in the future.    

However, Lan Ling'er was a girl and she had not married yet. She suddenly invited a young man of similar age to her house as a guest, giving people a strange feeling.    

"Miss Lan, I'm afraid I can only disappoint your good intentions because I will still participate in the Ranking Competition tomorrow. I can't follow you to your home as a guest." In terms of cultivation, he might not be as good as Aunt Rong and Lan Ling'er. But in terms of dealing with the ways of the world, he was better at it.    

Not to mention that he still had to participate in the ranking competition tomorrow. Even if he had nothing to do tomorrow, he still couldn't accept Lan Ling Er's invitation. Because this matter was very complicated, Chu Zhongtian immediately found a reason to refuse.    

"You are one of the arena defenders in 33 arenas of the Body Refinement Stage!" Lan Ling'er was shocked when she heard Chu Zhongtian say that he would participate in the Ranking Competition tomorrow.    

One should know that her biggest wish for sneaking out of the family this time was to participate in the Body Refining Stage arena competition and become an Arena Lord with an Arena.    

Unfortunately, when she had just paid the spirit stones and was about to receive the participant pass, she was recognized by the staff there, causing her to not be able to participate in the challenge.    

"I am the Arena Lord of the Ninth Primary Rank of the Body Refining Period Arena." He nodded, confirming her thoughts.    

"Ai, what a pity!" Lan Ling'er expressed her regret after getting confirmation from Chu Zhongtian.    

He also did not know if it was because she was unable to become an Arena's Arena Lord, or if it was because he could not go home with her.    

"Young man, next I have to bring Lan Ling'er back. If you have nothing else to do, you can stay here and help me look after the shop." Seeing Lan Ling'er's low will, Aunt Rong knew that this would be detrimental to her consolidation of her foundation. She was even more anxious to send her home.    

"Okay!" He was just worrying about not having a place to go. Being able to stay here for a night was exactly what Chu Zhongtian wanted. Of course, he would be happy to do so.    

"Sure! If there are customers in the shop, you don't have to care about anything and don't ask any more questions." Aunt Rong stretched out her hand to grab Lan Ling'er and reminded her before she left.    

He nodded and Chu Zhongtian watched Aunt Rong disappear into the pub with Lan Ling'er, who was unwilling to leave.    

Ever since he was able to absorb Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth to cultivate, his sleep was basically replaced by cultivation. Unless his physical strength and brain power were exhausted too much, he would only sleep.    

He had just broken through to the Third Layer of the Body Refining Period, and his condition was at its best. Chu Zhongtian chose a chair in the corner of the tavern and leaned there to comprehend the power after the breakthrough.    

As for the strange person in the tavern, he had not said anything since he followed Lan Ling'er into the tavern. Aunt Rong also did not pay attention to him. Perhaps there was some special story behind it.    

As long as he did not interfere with him, Chu Zhongtian would not bother to pay attention to him.    

"As long as you are with Lan Ling'er, you can run amok in Southern Domain and do not need to be afraid of anyone." Just as Chu Zhongtian was feeling the changes in his power after his breakthrough, the strange man who had been silent all this time suddenly spoke.    

Chu Zhongtian looked up at the strange man. He did not say anything. He lowered his head and continued to feel the power after his breakthrough.    

"Is it because you don't know Lan Ling'er's background that you are indifferent? If you know her true origin, you will regret not accepting her invitation today." Seeing Chu Zhongtian ignore him, the strange man continued to speak in a strange tone.    

"Senior, as the saying goes, relying on the heavens and the earth is not as good as relying on yourself. I, Chu Zhongtian, have experienced a lot in my life. The reason I can stand up again is because of myself, so you don't need to tempt me."    

"Hehe! You have a backbone!" Hearing Chu Zhongtian's bold words, the strange man laughed coldly. His tone was full of sarcasm.    

The reason Chu Zhongtian agreed to let Aunt Rong stay in the tavern was because the night in Purgatory City was more dangerous. He was penniless at the moment. If he was alone outside, he could be in danger at any time.    

Secondly, the environment in the tavern was quiet, and it was very suitable for him to use the environment here to feel the power after his breakthrough.    

However, this peace was broken by the strange person in the tavern. Chu Zhongtian frowned and looked at the strange person. He stood up and planned to enter the tavern to temporarily avoid the strange person's harassment.    

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Aunt Rong looks forthright and generous, but she is actually a petty person. If you dare to break into her backyard, you will have to bear the consequences!" Seeing that Chu Zhongtian was going to the backyard, the strange person quickly reminded him.    

The strange man's reminder made Chu Zhongtian stop in his tracks. He thought of the small piece of stewed meat that she had just cooked that could help him break through to the Minor Stage. He couldn't help but think of Aunt Rong's terrifying strength. He could only helplessly return to the table in the corner.    

"Did the elders in your family teach you to respect the elders outside?" Seeing that Chu Zhongtian still didn't intend to pay attention to him after returning to the corner, the strange person couldn't help but criticize him.    

"Senior, of course I want to respect you, but the prerequisite is that you deserve my respect!" Seeing the strange man rambling on and on, Chu Zhongtian couldn't help but mock him.    

"Hehe, of course I deserve your respect." The strange man chuckled when he heard Chu Zhongtian's sarcasm, then disappeared into the tavern.
