Chapter 1127: The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road
If Lu Benwei hadn't persuaded Guo Ran to betray him and reveal Ji Yunting's collusion with Cheng Kun, it would have been a different story.
It seems Yan Zheng won't give Su Chen a month; he'll likely take action on the spot.
"Boss Su, what about the match with Yan Zheng..."
Zhan Wei hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
As a member of Suzaku, he was well aware of Yan Zheng's strength.
Even the strongest fighter among the Vermilion Birds is far inferior to Yan Zheng!
Defeating Yen Cheng is easier said than done.
"When two brave men meet on a narrow road, the bravest will prevail!"
Su Chen looked into the distance, his eyes showing no fear, but rather filled with fighting spirit!
"Very good, Xiao Su, I look forward to your victory!"
Lu Benwei's eyes were full of admiration.
He patted Su Chen on the shoulder, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
Zhanwei, Crow, and the others followed closely behind.
Zhong Yage looked at Su Chen, hesitated for a moment, and ultimately felt too embarrassed to be too intimate with Su Chen in front of everyone.
"Boss Su, you...you have to keep it up!"
After saying that, Zhong Yage quickly turned around and followed Lu Benwei and the others.
Upon seeing this, Guo Ran's face turned deathly pale.
But he also knew in his heart that it was already a very good outcome that he was able to save his life.
It's impossible for me to win Zhong Ya-yun's heart in this lifetime!
"Tsk tsk, Su-ge's charm is truly powerful!"
Wang Yan said with a grin.
"Alright, enough nonsense, everyone go back!"
Su Chen waved his hand.
……
As soon as the group returned to the base, Cui Yuan found Su Chen.
"Boss Su, this is the information that Minister Lu just sent over."
Su Chen was taken aback, then took the documents and began to read them.
After just a few glances, his expression turned somewhat serious.
Soon, Zhao Man, Sun Yuan, He Wang, and others were gathered in the conference room.
"These are the documents sent by Minister Lu. Everyone should pass them around and read them."
Su Chen distributed the information.
After everyone read it, they all became tense, just like Su Chen.
The information in the document was very simple, only introducing Yan Zheng's situation.
Strict governance.
The eldest disciple of Bai Henian, the leader of the Dao Yi Sect, is very likely to succeed as the next leader.
He is cautious and calm, and possesses leadership qualities.
Its strength is at least A-level, and A+ is not out of the question.
He possesses a flying sword, several magical artifacts, and is proficient in many Taoist arts.
Although the information was limited, it was shocking to read!
"Boss Su, judging from this, it seems quite difficult for you to defeat Yan Zheng..."
Luo Xiaotian sighed, looking worried.
"As the saying goes, when two armies meet on a narrow path, the brave one will prevail."
"If I back down before the fight even starts, then I will definitely lose this battle."
"There is still a month until the scheduled fight. If I intensify my training, I might be able to make a breakthrough."
Su Chen smiled confidently.
Seeing his confidence, everyone felt relieved.
After all, in everyone's mind, Su Chen has always been able to turn the impossible into the possible!
……
In the following period, Su Chen handed over all affairs of the Watchers Alliance to others.
He himself devoted himself entirely to cultivation!
However, after cultivating for a few days, Su Chen realized that something was wrong.
Although they broke through the bottleneck and evolved to A- combat power.
But no matter how much energy he absorbs, his energy progress bar remains stuck at 1%!
Su Chen even suspected that there might be a bug in his system.
It wasn't until more than ten days of practice that the progress bar jumped from 1% to 2%!
Su Chen then realized that it wasn't a bug in his system, but rather that the energy required was... far too enormous!
At this rate, if I train like crazy for a year, I can accumulate about 30% of my energy.
It takes three years to strengthen the body once, and nine years to evolve from A- to A-.
Even without any bottlenecks, it would take 27 years to evolve to S level.
Su Chen couldn't help but look confused.
He originally thought he was just an isolated case, so he stopped cultivating and went to find Zhao Man.
But after talking with Zhao Man, Luo Xiaotian and others, he realized...
Not only himself, but other extraordinary individuals also face the problem of slow cultivation after entering the A-rank.
But upon closer reflection, this makes perfect sense.
If S-rank cultivation were truly that easy, then Yan Zheng, who came from the Daoist sect, would probably have been an S-rank transcendent long ago!
At this moment, Su Chen finally understood why Chi Tian, despite his intelligence and dragon body, had failed to cultivate to the S rank!
Even with the system's assistance and frantic cultivation, it would still take more than twenty years if nothing went wrong!
Su Chen's original plan was to quickly cultivate to A-level combat power.
In this way, regardless of whether Yan Zheng is A-level or A+-level, he will have the ability to fight.
Little did he know that his thoughts were far too naive.
There are less than twenty days left until the day of the duel.
No matter how many extraordinary encounters Su Chen has, it's impossible for him to evolve to Rank A.
If we want to defeat Yen Cheng, we need to find another way.
After thinking for a moment, Su Chen finally decided to upgrade his RV and see if there was any way to do so.
Compared to strengthening the physical body, upgrading the RV doesn't require many energy points.
"RV system upgrade successful, current level: 16."
"RV system upgrade successful, current level: 17."
"..."
"RV system upgrade successful, current level: 19."
Su Chen upgraded the RV to level 19 in one go.
Just as he was about to continue upgrading, the system coldly gave him a warning.
"Missing key items, unable to continue upgrading!"
"???"
When did upgrading a motorhome require additional key items?
Su Chen frowned and tentatively asked,
What is the key prop?
The system remained silent, seemingly not intending to reply!
Got it!
Su Chen sighed helplessly and began to check the differences after the RV system upgrade.
However, the result disappointed him.
Aside from the expanded area and the addition of more redeemable items, there are basically no major updates!
This means that Su Chen's idea of using an upgraded RV to deal with Yan Zheng has failed.
Su Chen leaned back on the sofa, feeling a sense of powerlessness.
"Boss, what's wrong?"
Just then, a fragrant breeze wafted over.
Mengqi appeared from above the sofa, and her towering breasts pressed down on Su Chen's face, giving him a face wash!
Su Chen almost couldn't catch his breath and quickly straightened up.
"Mengqi, haven't I told you many times to pay attention!"
"All the other older sisters have done it, why can't I?"
Mengqi pouted her red lips, moved closer to Su Chen, and snuggled into his arms.
Do you still think of yourself as the little orange cat you used to be?
Su Chen was both amused and exasperated.
But he couldn't refuse Mengqi, so he had no choice but to hold her in his arms.
But then again, I've never tried Catwoman before, so why not give it a try?
I don't think Mengqi would resist me.
Su Chen shook his head, temporarily putting the thought out of his mind.
The most important thing for me right now is to figure out a way to deal with Yan Zheng.
