"Senior Sister Chen right? Can we talk alone?"
Ye Xiu looked at the other Nebula Sect disciples around him, then made a suggestion to Chen Lan.
"Alone?"
With regards to Ye Xiu's suggestion, Chen Lan naturally hesitated.
Ye Xiu saw Chen Lan's hesitation, so he smiled lightly at this moment: "Senior Sister Chen, this is the Nine Profound Sect. Furthermore, we are not bringing you to a place without people, so you do not need to worry about any accidents."
"This Junior has misunderstood, that is not what I meant. Alright, please lead the way." Chen Lan nodded as he replied.
"Please!"
When Ye Xiu saw that Chen Lan agreed to talk to them alone, he made a gesture of invitation towards the woman.
Just like that, Chen Lan left, and when the Nebula Sect Sect Master and the other disciples watched Chen Lan leave, their eyes all revealed expressions of curiosity.
Obviously, they were very curious as to why these two people were looking for Chen Lan.
Of course, since Ye Xiu said that he wanted to talk to Chen Lan alone, they wouldn't disturb him. Even if they wanted to know the reason, it wouldn't be too late to ask about it after they had finished talking.
Escorted by a few disciples from the Nebula Sect, Ye Xiu and the other two left the crowd, but they did not go far.
"I wonder what business do you two have with me?"
After leaving the group and walking a little further away, Chen Lan asked again.
"Yan Xiang, I have given you a chance. The rest is up to you." After hearing Chen Lan's question, Ye Xiu did not reply. Instead, he turned his head to look at Yan Xiang, who had a face at a loss as well.
"Elder Ye, I ?"
Hearing Ye Xiu's words, Yan Xiang was somewhat at a loss of what to do, because he simply did not know what to say.
Seeing Yan Xiang like this, he understood in his heart that this should be the first time liked a girl.
When a person was facing a person they liked, their reaction would be awkward, just like the current Yan Xiang, when he suddenly realised that he did not even know how to stand.
"Elder Ye?"
However, when Yan Xiang called out to Ye Xiu, Chen Lan, who was standing in front of the two of them, was slightly shocked. She absolutely did not expect that the youth, who was only at the peak of the Profound Pill Realm, was actually an elder.
What was even more shocking was that a profound strength practitioner calling someone with a cultivation level much lower than theirs an elder was definitely an unprecedented existence.
"Senior Sister Chen, I am an elder of the Five Elements' Sect. Of course, I only took up the position of an elder because of the kindness of the sect master. The reason we came to find you this time is very simple, we want to get to know you." Ye Xiu said.
Since Yan Xiang could not say a word, then Ye Xiu could only do it on his behalf, otherwise, it would be weird for the three of them to stand there foolishly.
"You know me?"
Towards the answer that Ye Xiu gave, it was naturally arranged in a way that made Chen Lan surprised.
Wasn't it curious that the two of them wanted to get to know each other for no reason?
Don't misunderstand Senior Sister Chen, we have no ill intentions towards you, we just want to get to know you, and want to be your friend. How about it, are you willing to be our friend? Ye Xiu asked.
In order to like a person, one had to first become friends with them. Only by developing their feelings would they be able to eventually get together.
Otherwise, if the other party didn't even know who you are, how could they like you?
"Friends?"
Chen Lan muttered, and she didn't know how to reply to that at the moment.
With regards to Chen Lan's reaction, Ye Xiu naturally understood. If it was him, suddenly two strangers asking him for a friend, then his reaction would definitely not be any better than hers.
After all, this was all too sudden and they were caught off guard at all.
Seeing that Chen Lan did not speak, Yan Xiang's eyes dimmed a little, because not answering meant that the other party did not want to be his friend.
If he couldn't even be friends, then it would be even more unrealistic to be together. Yan Xiang clearly understood this point.
"Alright, since you don't want to be our friend, then I'll be troubling you!"
Seeing that Chen Lan was still silent, Ye Xiu nodded his head to express his understanding.
Since the other party didn't want to be friends with them, Ye Xiu naturally wouldn't force them. As long as he worked hard, even if he failed in the end, he wouldn't have any regrets.
After Ye Xiu finished speaking, he turned around and left with the still in a daze, leaving Chen Lan alone on the ground.
"Elder Ye, I'm sorry!"
When Ye Xiu brought Yan Xiang back to his own seat, only then did the latter react and apologize to Ye Xiu.
"What are you apologizing for?"
With regards to Yan Xiang's apology, Ye Xiu immediately revealed a look of suspicion.
"Elder Ye, it's all because of my relationship that you're in such a difficult situation. I'm truly sorry." Yan Xiang explained.
"It's okay, everyone has their first time. I think this is the first time you like a girl. It's okay, it's very normal. You get used to it after liking her a few times." Ye Xiu said with a light smile.
Although he had failed this time, it was still considered a form of training for Yan Xiang. This was because if it wasn't for the first time, he would never be able to face the girl he liked.
If it really was like this, then Yan Xiang would probably be destined to be alone for his entire life in the future.
So, being rejected is not scary. What's scary is that I don't even dare to take the first step out. If that happens, there really will be no hope for me.
"Yan Xiang, tell me the truth, do you really like this Chen Lan?" Ye Xiu asked again.
Although he was rejected for the first time, he could still fight for it if he truly liked it.
After all, he had only failed his first time, and he was also a stranger at that. So it wasn't Chen Lan's fault, because no one would casually agree to something like that when they met with it.
"Elder Ye, I don't know what 'like' is, but when I saw her, I felt a warm feeling in my heart, making me feel very comfortable. Is this' like '?" Yan Xiang said.
Because in the past, Yan Xiang had only cultivated, he had never had any feelings for anyone else, and this could be considered a coincidence as well. He saw a figure within the vast crowd that caused one's heart to palpitate.
"Yan Xiang, although she failed for the first time, it was not a complete failure. At least, we now know that she is a disciple of Nebula Sect, and also has her name. With these two points, will we still have a chance to meet again in the future?" Ye Xiu gently smiled.
Actually, Ye Xiu had also expected this result, so he had never intended to be able to become friends with the other party the first time.
On the other hand, if it was so easy to be friends with this Chen Lan who was a stranger, then this kind of woman could not be friends.
And it was also because of this that this first meeting with Ye Xiu was considered a test, but now, Chen Lan's reaction clearly indicated that he had passed.
Furthermore, this is Ye Xiu's test, and it is also a test for Yan Xiang.
If Yan Xiang gave up after just one failure, then he did not really like her, but rather, was attracted by her beauty.
If a person only liked the other person's appearance, there was no way for the two of them to truly be together.
Only through understanding each other, that was the true love.
Regarding this logic, Ye Xiu did not reveal it, because if he did, then Yan Xiang's test would not be real.
Although Ye Xiu did not know Chen Lan, he did not want his relationship with her to affect a girl's life.
Just like this, after conversing with Yan Xiang for a while, the competition on the stage was nearing its end. Naturally, Ye Xiu changed the topic and started to explain to Yan Xiang.
Now that Yan Xiang and Chen Lan had met, if he wanted to perform, the only way was for him to compete in the stage.
Only if Yan Xiang succeeded in entering the third round and allowed the other party to see his strength would he be noticed.
If a man caught the attention of another woman, he was only half a step away from success.
"Alright, there's no suspense in this match. Next up, I'm going up on stage."
After Ye Xiu explained it to Yan Xiang, he stood up from his seat and stretched his waist.
Not long after Ye Xiu finished speaking, the competition officially ended and one of them admitted defeat helplessly.
This was because he no longer had the energy to continue fighting. If he were to force his way through, his injuries would only worsen.
It was just a competition. If he lost, then he would lose. After all, there was still a long road ahead of him. If he worked hard enough to get serious injuries because of an impossible outcome, it would not be worth it.
Just like that, after the competition ended, without waiting for Xu An to say anything, he walked towards the stage.
After all, the competition was conducted using the number plate chosen, so even without Xu An's reminder, Ye Xiu would not be on the wrong stage.
"Hmm?"
However, just as Ye Xiu stepped onto the stage, the other man who was about to step onto the stage was startled.
He had never thought that his luck would be so bad. There were so many people in the second round, how could he just pick the person he didn't want to pick the most?
"Sigh!"
Because of fate, the man could only helplessly sigh and walk up to the arena, one step at a time.
"Why is it you!"
When the man walked onto the stage with a helpless look on his face, Ye Xiu was also surprised.
"Isn't it me? "How could my luck be so bad? If I did not meet you, I would definitely have advanced to the third round. This is my last Sky Sect competition." The more the man spoke, the more helpless he became.
But no matter what he said, he did not ask Ye Xiu to give this opportunity to him, because he knew that he was not qualified.
"Sect Master Xu, I admit defeat in this match, that's all!"
The man took a deep breath, then spoke softly to Xu An.
With that, the man walked off the stage under the astonished gazes of the crowd.
"Senior Zuo, we haven't even competed yet, how can you admit defeat so easily? You're making me feel bad even for winning like this." Seeing Zuo Lixiong walking down the stage, Ye Xiu quickly said.
