At the foot of Holy Son Peak,

Shi Yufei looked at Su Ze, who had an indifferent expression, and was speechless for a moment.

"I……"

Her gaze gradually became vacant, unable to believe that these words could come from the mouth of the man in front of her.

Is this just something said in anger?

He would never have treated me like this before!

Before Shi Yufei could react...

"Is this...is this still the Holy Son we know? He...he's finally come to his senses?!"

“Shi Yufei, the Holy Son is right. Since you want to have nothing to do with him, then don’t refuse the Holy Son while taking his benefits. Hurry up and return the things to the Holy Son. You have no right to take the Holy Son’s things!”

"Looking at her like this, it seems she's still reluctant to pay it back. How shameless!"

"If it weren't for the Holy Son, how could you have achieved what you have today? If it weren't for the Holy Son, would you have reached the God-King realm so quickly? Heh... You're really asking for trouble. Now that the Holy Son has realized his mistake, let's see what you do next!"

"That ten-thousand-year-old Earthly Fiend Blood Lotus is priceless. For a Divine King Realm cultivator, it is enough to greatly increase their blood and qi. There is also the essence core of the Heavenly Origin Fiend Beast, which has a great effect on improving cultivation. The Holy Son risked his life to retrieve it for you. You took the benefits but are unwilling to give anything in return?"

"Such a woman is truly despicable. If it weren't for the Holy Son's favor, she probably wouldn't have been able to enter the inner sect in her entire life!"

"..."

The surrounding disciples discussed amongst themselves, their eyes filled with disdain and their words laced with sarcasm.

Faced with these words,

Shi Yufei frowned and said angrily, "Su Ze, what do you mean?"

"What you gave me is mine. As the young master of the Su family and a holy son of a sect, how can you act like this?!"

Whether it's the ten-thousand-year-old Earthly Fiend Blood Lotus or the Heavenly Origin Fiend Beast Inner Core comparable to a Saint Realm, both are of great help to her cultivation!

She certainly didn't want to give it back!

Seeing this,

Su Ze was unwilling to say anything more and said lazily, "Give it back to me and you can leave."

"Ha, I never thought you were this kind of person. I was blind. I shouldn't have given you the chance to get close to me in the first place!"

Seeing Su Ze's nonchalant attitude, Shi Yufei could no longer hold back. Her beautiful eyes were filled with resentment, but she showed no intention of handing over the item.

I don't want to waste any more words on this brainless woman.

"What? You took my things and then rejected me, and you said you wanted to cut ties completely, but now you're unwilling to give them back?"

Su Ze narrowed his eyes, a sharp glint in them, and mercilessly exposed her true purpose.

Immediately,

The surrounding comments were filled with ridicule.

Shi Yufei, who always valued her reputation and face highly, began to tremble slightly when she saw Su Ze's resolute determination.

"Su Ze, don't make false accusations!!"

She gritted her teeth, her face full of resentment, and said, "It's just returning the things to you, what's wrong with that?"

"You...you'll regret this!!!"

With a heavy heart, she took out a storage ring that emitted bursts of light and looked quite valuable, and threw it at Su Ze!

You're already so angry,

Given Su Ze's nature, he'll definitely beg for forgiveness and return the items, right?

but!

Su Ze snatched the storage ring, checked its contents to make sure everything was correct, then put it away casually, saying, "Alright, get lost."

"you!!!"

Shi Yufei was immediately stunned, her beautiful eyes widening in disbelief.

What's wrong with this guy today?

It's like he's become a completely different person!

This was unacceptable to her. Was this still the same Holy Son Su Ze who used to follow her around and obey her every command?!

How come everything is completely different now?!

...

Surrounded by the watching disciples,

Su Ze didn't pay much attention to Shi Yufei, who was caught in self-doubt, and was about to turn around and leave.

suddenly,

"Let's not even talk about the fact that you're the young master of the Su family, with an incredibly powerful family background..."

A sudden sound came from the crowd.

To the astonishment of those around them

A resolute-looking, slender young man slowly stepped forward, staring calmly at Su Ze and saying, "Just because you are the Holy Son of the Supreme Dao Sect, this is the first time I've seen someone like you take back something you've personally given away!"

An uproar erupted at the scene.

Upon seeing this person,

Su Ze looked him up and down, then stroked his chin.

"Lin Yi, the male protagonist, the chosen one..."

After he remembered, his eyes sparkled, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

In the original text,

It was after his relentless pursuit of Shi Yufei was rejected that he encountered the male lead in this little episode, and the two became acquainted as a result.

After that, with the unbridled devotion of her devoted admirers, the female protagonist rose through the ranks to become a top prodigy of the Supreme Dao Sect, attracting the attention of everyone!

As the chosen one, the male protagonist is naturally extraordinary, displaying astonishing talent in cultivation that amazes everyone!

Later on,

The downfall of the Su family was mainly due to these two individuals!

The first imperial family to be wiped out was the Su family, which is an utter disgrace!

If killing him wouldn't have posed a risk to him, and if he hadn't been able to plunder villain points from him, Su Ze would have definitely killed him on the spot!

If we follow the development in the original book,

After being rejected repeatedly, he not only showed no dissatisfaction with the female lead, but his sycophantic behavior intensified.

Even when he sees the female lead getting closer and closer to the male lead, he can only feel angry in his heart but does not take any action.

But now,

Su Ze laughed, a hearty laugh.

"Are you trying to use this opportunity to stand out and win the heart of the beauty?"

He looked at Lin Yi with a half-smile and readily agreed, "Okay!"

"Then I'll give you a chance to stand up!"

"Why don't you buy my things and give them to her? Judging from your appearance, you don't seem to have anything to exchange with this Holy Son. The Earthly Fiend Blood Lotus and the Heavenly Origin Fiend Beast Inner Core, which is comparable to a Saint Realm, will be worth 20,000 high-grade spirit stones for you."

Pointing at Shi Yufei, his smile deepened as he took the storage ring he had previously retrieved and played with it in his hand.

Twenty thousand high-grade spirit stones!?

Lin Yi was shocked, and his face immediately turned ugly!

"With your status, you must have plenty of spirit stones, right?"

He snorted coldly, giving an irrelevant answer.

Twenty thousand high-grade spirit stones is equivalent to two hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones, or two million low-grade spirit stones!

Given my status, I can only receive less than ten high-grade spirit stones per month as an inner disciple!

I can't afford it, I simply can't afford it!

Upon hearing this, Su Ze looked Lin Yi up and down and said, "Judging from your appearance, is it possible that this Holy Son's asking price is too high?"

"Fine, I've already given it away, so we can't calculate it like that. I'll give you half price for a worthless secondhand item, ten thousand high-grade spirit stones will do."

He seemed completely unconcerned, speaking casually.

Upon hearing this,

"Su Ze, what do you mean?!"

Shi Yufei glared angrily, gritting her teeth. How dare she use the word "second-hand goods"?

Is this an insult to her?

...
