Su Chen sent her to primary school because he knew she could recognize Chinese characters and understood basic math.
According to her, all these were taught by an uncle, whom Su Chen had never met nor knew anything about.
Since Lin Ruoxue would not return until after eight o'clock, Su Chen and the others had dinner first.
After dinner, Xiao Xun was still engrossed in watching cartoons. Not long after, Lin Ruoxue came back and, as usual, went upstairs to continue working after dinner.
Su Chen then took Xiao Xun back to her room to rest. Around eleven o'clock, he quietly went out of the villa and drove to the manor.
He had neglected his cultivation for various reasons recently, so he had to take this time to diligently practice and strive to break through to the Eighth Layer Realm of Qi Refinement!
He was also troubled about how he would continue his cultivation if he went to Yandu in the future.
Having gotten used to cultivating at the manor, he was no longer satisfied with the significantly slower pace of cultivation in other places.
However, he would think of a solution when the time came; now, while still in Jianghai, he should focus on his cultivation.
When Su Chen arrived at the manor, the house was pitch-dark, presumably because Xu Xinran, the little girl, had already gone to bed.
He did not turn on the lights; for him, even without lights, he could approximately make out where obstacles were in the dark house, especially since he was extremely familiar with everything here.
Upon entering the house, Su Chen went straight to the room where he usually cultivated. However, as he pushed open the door, a faint, pleasant fragrance wafted to his nose.
It seemed there was someone lying on the bed inside. Su Chen could not see the figure clearly but could faintly make out a silhouette.
Just then, the bedside lamp suddenly turned on, and Su Chen could clearly see the figure on the bed.
It was indeed a person, and a stunningly beautiful woman at that!
She was lying on her side on the bed, her delicate arm supporting her head, a charming smile on her face as she looked at Su Chen.
The woman stretched out a snow-white arm, as lovely as a lotus root, and hooked her finger at Su Chen!
Su Chen suddenly felt a bit dizzy and unconsciously walked towards the bed...
When he reached the bedside, the woman abruptly grabbed his arm and pulled forcefully, causing Su Chen to immediately fall onto the bed!
At that moment, a cold and murderous look flashed through the seductive gaze of the woman!
From her long fingernails, she suddenly flicked out a very thin silver needle, aiming it straight at Su Chen's neck.
However, just at that moment, a hand seemingly emerged out of nowhere, grabbed her wrist.
The woman was startled and immediately looked at Su Chen, who was now smiling benignly at her, clear-eyed, not showing any sign of the confusion he had just moments before.
"How could this be? How is this possible..."
The astonishment and disbelief were evident in the woman's beautiful eyes.
"Refined ylang ylang scent. If I hadn't recognized it, you might have actually succeeded."
While holding the woman's wrist, Su Chen laughed, saying,
"You can only blame your impatience, which made your actions a little too deliberate."
"Do you think you've controlled me now?"
The woman laughed seductively, and with a slight shake of her wrist, she slipped it out of Su Chen's grasp like an eel.
At the same time, she aimed a palm at Su Chen's forehead, her powerful True Yuan swirling in the center of her palm...
Su Chen was surprised that she could free herself from his grip, and even more so that this woman possessed such profound True Yuan.
He dared not take her lightly, quickly tilting his head to the side while his hand, swift as a specter, struck out against the woman, devoid of any sentiments of cherishing fragility or beauty!
The woman felt a massive force upon impact. She had not anticipated Su Chen's swiftness, his preceding action having caught her mid-flight, throwing her out!
