Shangguan Rou naturally dared not be presumptuous; she did not think she had the face to persuade Su Cheng to come.
"Rou'er dares not overstep her bounds. She naturally considers this as a joint effort between Lingxian Palace and Tiandao Pavilion. I wonder what Sect Leader Su thinks?"
[Heh, join forces? Me, join forces with the Heavenly Dao Pavilion? I'd be lucky if I didn't join forces with this demon race to take you all down!]
Su Cheng shook his head, his face showing dissatisfaction.
"Did Rou'er register this with Lingshan? Words are not enough. If the matter comes to light later and Headmaster Cheng denies it, how will I face myself?"
Su Cheng thought to himself, "Doesn't Cheng Liang know this already?"

"Miss Shangguan and Qinghan are sisters. Since Miss Shangguan has asked for my help, I should naturally lend a hand..."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Rou realized there was a chance; she hadn't expected to have such a large following!
"Then please, Sect Leader Su, help Rou'er quickly!" Shangguan Rou was speechless. In just this short while, several more people from the Heavenly Dao Pavilion were seriously injured, and several more died...
Su Cheng let out a long sigh of relief, as if the situation had taken a turn for the better, and said, "However, words are still not enough. How about you give me a written agreement, just stating that you asked me for help, and that it was not that Lingxian Palace was bullying the weak? What do you say?"
