"Little Chen, why have you come here?

", an anxious cry fell on the ears of Zhan Chen. He looked towards the owner of the voice and the beautiful figure of Zhan Qingyue appeared Infront of his eyes.

n

"Big sis, hold on for a second. I will come to help you after finishing up this guy

", Zhan Chen replied. His sword flashed and he sent a upward sword strike which pierced at the throat of his opponent. His opponent was not weak as he was a sixth stage Meridian opening realm warrior but the attack of Zhan Chen cut him off guard. He managed to protect himself from the upward thrust of Zhan Chen but his body staggered backward as he stopped himself from falling to the ground.

nZhan Chen didn't miss this chance to strike. He thrusted his sword towards the chest of the Gu family warrior. The Gu family warrior tried to block the attack of Zhan Chen but he was one step late. A instance of carelessness brought his downfall.

nZhan Chen didn't stop as his figure flashed towards the location of Zhan Qingyue. She was fighting with a person who had already reached the peak stage of the Meridian opening realm.

nNo one dared to stop Zhan Chen from moving towards Zhan Qingyue as the Gu family warriors tried to stay away from this devil incarnate. Even some Zhan family warriors had a hint of fear in their eyes as they stared at the figure of Zhan Chen. There was respect in most of their eyes as they looked at the flashing figure of Zhan Chen.

n

"Big sis, move away. Let me handle this guy

", Zhan Chen spoke.

n

"Little Chen, why have you come? It is dangerous here

", Zhan Qingyue replied in a concerned voice.

n

"Ok then, we will attack together

", Zhan Chen shook his head helplessly and decided to attack together with his big sister. Zhan Qingyue nodded her head and started to attack more fiercely.

nZhan Chen quitely observed the techniques of his big sister. Her movements were polished and she was holding her sword with proper angle. Zhan Chen nodded his head after seeing her attacking stance.

nHe decided to join in the fun and swung his sword towards the peak stage Meridian opening realm warrior of the Gu family. The situation was initially a stalemate but with the addition of Zhan Chen, the warrior of Gu family fell to a disadvantage.

nSoon, Zhan Qingyue found an opening and a sword cut appeared on the chest of the Gu family warrior. The Gu family warrior fought ferociously but his body couldn't hold up after some more sword injuries. He started to fall back and Zhan Chen who was only defending untill now made his move. His sword bypassed the defence of the Gu family warrior and struck the belly of the Gu family warrior.

nBlood poured out from his belly as Zhan Chen struck once again. The struggling Gu family warrior fell to ground after Zhan Chen made his second attack.

n

"Little Chen, are you okay?

" Zhan Qingyue asked worriedly. She was not aware of the deeds of Zhan Chen in this battle. Otherwise, she wouldn't have felt so much concern for Zhan Chen who had slayed most of the Meridian opening realm warriors of the Gu family.

n

"This guy is a monster. I am thinking whether he is a good match for young miss or not but now I can rest assured

", Liu Nanxi spoke as he saw the peak stage Meridian opening realm warrior of the Gu family got slayed by Zhan Chen.

nA sweet smile appeared on the beautiful face of Shen Ruyan as she stared at Zhan Chen without blinking her eyes.

n

"Young miss, you should tell Zhan Chen about the Grand sect competition. I think he will be interested

", Liu Nanxi spoke. Shen Ruyan nodded her head as she kept looking at the distant figure of Zhan Chen.

n------------

nThe battle ended more quickly than others had anticipated. The prediction of many proved to be wrong as Zhan family managed to not only defend but they also completely defeated the Gu family who had the numerical advantage with them.

nIt was already deep in night. So, the witnessing factions chose not to disturb Zhan family members. They decided to visit the Zhan family in the morning.

nThe Zhan family manor was well lit as a jubilance mood spread among all of its members. The Zhan family guards gathered in groups and started to drink to their hearts' content. They were celebrating their victory as the past few days pressured them to death.

n

"I have never thought that fourth young master is such a incredible person

", a skinny looking guard commented.

n

"It may sound stupid but I think he can surpass our old general

", another soldier added.

n

"We don't need to compare fourth young master with supreme general. Everyone just need to know one thing. That is no one can stop our Zhan family as long as fourth young master is alive

", a burly looking man said in a solemn voice.

n

"Long live fourth young master

"

n

"Long live our Zhan family

",

nThe Zhan family guards shouted and gulped down jug full of wine.

n

"Where is little Chen?

", the eldest aunt of Zhan Chen asked Li Qingzhao.

n

"Chen'er should be in his room. Shall I send someone to call him?

", Li Qingzhao asked.

n

"No need to bother him. We will talk with him in the morning. For now, we four sisters should celebrate

", the eldest aunt of Zhan Chen spoke.

nFour exquisite looking glasses were kept in front of them. The eldest aunt of Zhan Chen raised her glass and sipped the wine slowly.

n

"Second sister, third sister, fourth sister, why are you not drinking?

", the eldest aunt of Zhan Chen frowned after seeing the clumsy behaviour of others.

n

"Qingyue, go away. Wine is not for little girls

", the second aunt of Zhan Chen shouted as she chased away her daughter. Zhan Qingyue pouted but she still went away. Her mind was not with his aunts and mother as she walked towards the room of Zhan Chen.

n

"Little Chen

", Zhan Qingyue called out after reaching the courtyard of Zhan Chen.

nZhan Chen was standing outside his room as he was thinking about something. It felt like he comprehended something in today's battle but he couldn't exact tell what it was.

n

"Big sis

", Zhan Chen turned his head after seeing the voice of Zhan Qingyue.

nZhan Qingyue had already changed her battle attair. She was wearing a red coloured frock which was outlining her shapely figure.

n

"Little Chen, you are amazing today. When did your strength inclreased so much?

", Zhan Qingyue asked in a curious voice.

n

"Big sis is also amazing

", Zhan Chen said in a light voice.

n

"Little Chen, don't avoid my question

", Zhan Qingyue pouted at Zhan Chen

n

"Big sis, you are looking beautiful

", Zhan Chen said as he looked at the displeased expression of Zhan Qingyue which was looking very enchanting to his eyes.

nHer cheeks reddened after seeing the intense look of Zhan Chen.

n

"Let's go to your room

", Zhan Qingyue said and without waiting for Zhan Chen, she entered inside.

nZhan Chen's lips curled up slightly after seeing her flustered expression. He followed behind her and closed the room after entering.

n

"Little Chen, you are a rogue. I can't stop thinking about you after that day

", Zhan Qingyue muttered as she kept staring at Zhan Chen's face. A blush appeared on her face as she saw the gaze of Zhan Chen which was all over his body.

n

"Big sis, it is nice to know that you are thinking about me. Let me give you a little reward for the tiresome battle today

", Zhan Chen spoke as an evil smile appeared on his handsome face.

nWith a stretch of his hand, the slim figure of Zhan Qingyue entered his embrace.
