SWNOVELXO Chapter 2:
Chapter 2: You Want My Blood After I Suppressed the Demon Cave? Suppressed With a Glare! Sealing the Heroine With a Palm!
“Junge, we’ve come here to ask you for something,” Liu Haitian said with a polite tone. His eyes briefly showed a hint of fear as he glanced at the piles of demon corpses surrounding the cross-legged Chu Junge.
As Chu Junge opened his eyes, Liu Haitian continued without giving him a chance to speak, “Your junior brother Li Fan is about to break through to the Blood Refinement Realm. You possess a Demon Body, which is comparable to a Divine Body among the Human Race. If you give him a drop of your demon essence blood to refine, it will help him lay an unparalleled foundation in the Blood Refinement Realm. Would you be willing?”
Although he phrased it as a request, Liu Haitian was already sure of his disciple’s personality. Honest and dutiful—such people would never refuse. So, he confidently pulled out an entire vial, expecting Chu Junge to offer his blood willingly.
Just a drop? He was clearly asking for a full bottle of essence blood. Liu Haitian believed Chu Junge would understand the situation and act sensibly.
“Senior Brother, I will never forget your kindness. Please rest assured, I will surely repay you in the future,” Li Fan said with a sincere and naive expression as he respectfully bowed to Chu Junge.
“Senior Brother Chu, please,” Liu Yan’er added coldly from the side.
Chu Junge glanced at Li Fan and Liu Yan’er with a calm expression and sneered inwardly. Having read novels before, how could he not know what kind of person Li Fan was?
Naive? That was just on the surface. In truth, he was selfish and calculating. If it was a woman, he would make sure to ‘repay’ them well, but if it was a man, he wouldn’t bother at all. Even Liu Haitian, who helped him immensely in the early stages, would be ignored later on.
As for Liu Yan’er, she might seem cold, but in reality, she was just obsessed with love. Under the influence of the protagonist’s halo, she became hopelessly infatuated with Li Fan, to the point where she didn’t even care about her own father. These two were truly a perfect match—both utterly despicable.
As for the misunderstanding about him being a Half-Demon, Chu Junge couldn’t be bothered to explain. People’s prejudices were like mountains. Even if he explained, they’d just think he was trying to defend himself. The truth would reveal itself soon enough.
“Who do you think you are? Do you even have the right to speak here? Repay me? You’re just a Blood Refinement Realm disciple. Do I, a Core Formation Realm cultivator, need your repayment?” Chu Junge said coldly.
His eyes emitted divine light as runes appeared behind him, spreading through the void. Li Fan coughed up blood instantly, staggered backward, and couldn’t keep his balance.
The protagonist? Even he couldn’t withstand a mere glance from Chu Junge.
“You see your senior brother and don’t kneel? You don’t understand hierarchy at all,” Chu Junge said indifferently.
BOOM! A heavy pressure descended. Li Fan couldn’t resist and was forced to his knees.
“???” Li Fan was dumbfounded. He never expected the usually gentle and easy-going senior brother to be so domineering today.
“???” Everyone else was equally stunned, completely unprepared for Chu Junge’s sudden outburst.
The Elders, including Liu Haitian, instinctively tensed up. But after seeing the runic chains floating behind Chu Junge, they relaxed slightly.
[Ding! The host has insulted the Child of Destiny, Li Fan. Congratulations, host, you have gained 100 Luck Points.]
“Tsk, just like that, I got 100 Luck Points? That’s way too easy,” Chu Junge muttered with satisfaction.
“Chu Junge, how dare you! Who allowed you to bully your junior brother?” Liu Haitian shouted angrily.
“Master, please don’t blame Senior Brother. It’s all my fault. I should’ve been more respectful to him. From now on, I’ll kneel and bow every time I see him,” Li Fan said with a sincere face, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. But as he lowered his head, a flash of hatred appeared in his eyes.
“Master, Senior Brother, please don’t be angry,” he added humbly.
“My words—don’t you understand them? Do you think you have the right to speak here?” Chu Junge said coldly. Another cold glare flashed from his eyes, and Li Fan was instantly flung backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
“%…*￥#@.” Li Fan’s face turned green—not from injury, but from rage. This was utterly humiliating. An outrageous insult!
“Senior Brother Chu, you’ve gone too far!” Liu Yan’er helped Li Fan up, her icy expression showing clear anger. “Junior Brother only wanted a drop of your essence blood. What’s wrong with that? Can’t you spare just a little? And you even struck him. Do you even act like a senior brother? He’s still young, and so are you, but you’re bullying someone younger!”
PAH! A crisp slap echoed through the air. Chu Junge had struck Liu Yan’er across the face with a wave of his hand, swelling her cheek and drawing blood from her mouth.
“You shut up too,” he said coldly.
You think you can order me around like I’m a dog? If my predecessor suffered, do you think I’ll let myself be bullied too?
[Ding! The host has insulted the Child of Destiny. Congratulations, you have gained 300 Luck Points.]
[Ding! The host has injured the Child of Destiny. Congratulations, you have gained 300 Luck Points.]
[Ding! The host has insulted the female lead of destiny. Congratulations, you have gained 100 Luck Points.]
[Ding! The host has injured the female lead of destiny. Congratulations, you have gained 200 Luck Points.]
So many notifications rang out at once. Luck Points? All it took was lifting a hand! In just a few moments, he had racked up a thousand points!
Everyone else trembled with anger. Arrogant. Unbelievably arrogant! Why hadn’t they noticed this brat was so defiant before? He had no respect for his elders or superiors—this was outrageous!
“Chu Junge, you’ve gone too far! I’ve backed off again and again, yet you’re still so arrogant. If you weren’t older than me, do you think you could ever be my match?”
“Master, Elders, I request a duel with Chu Junge. Chu Junge! Do you dare fight me at the same cultivation level?” Li Fan yelled, pointing directly at Chu Junge, no longer hiding his hatred.
“Good!” Liu Haitian said excitedly. “That’s the spirit of my disciple!”
“Chu Junge, as long as you suppress your realm to match Li Fan’s, if you win, I won’t hold your actions against you. But if you lose, you’ll kneel and apologize to Li Fan right here.”
Although the other Elders didn’t speak, they nodded in agreement. They all believed in Li Fan’s talent. Chu Junge wouldn’t be a match at the same realm. This was the perfect chance to humble him.
Just because he guarded the Demon Cave, he thought he could act so arrogantly? As a Half-Demon, he dared to be this defiant. Did he even know what status he held? The nerve!
“?”
Chu Junge looked completely baffled, like he couldn’t believe what he was hearing. Were these people serious?
Suppress my realm?
You want me to suppress the very cultivation I earned through my own hard work? Are you insane or am I? Do I look like a brainless villain who listens to whatever the protagonist says?
