Meeting Xiao Wan Wan

"Brother Long Chen!" A small girl about two heads shorter than him appeared at his side, with a sweet smile, her cute dimples faintly showing.

Xiao Wan Wan grabbed onto Long Chen's arm as she thought of something, and acted out an expression of displeasure, "Brother Long Chen, why didn't you visit me at my courtyard…I was feeling very lonely these past few days. You promised me that you would come! Only Sister Murong Xuan came…"

Long Chen lowered his gaze and said in a pacifying tone, "Are you and I not here right now? It doesn't matter where we meet, but whether we meet. And I was just about to go and find you."

"Oh." Xiao Wan Wan sweetly smiled in response, then lifted her head back up, "Brother Long Chen, I heard that you broke through to the Sky Realm and was promoted to a Chosen. Congratulations!"

Her eyes dulled by a bit as she mumbled to herself, "If only I could promote with you too."

"It's alright. There is a lot of time for you to catch up to me." Long Chen started to encourage, and then paused for a while to examine her aura.

It caught him by quite a surprise when he found out that she was now in the Elementary Realm.

"Look at you. You are already in the Elementary Realm, and that is tremendously amazing for your age." Long Chen continued to say with a smile on his face.

At his words, Xiao Wan Wan slightly puffed up her chest, and her eyes brightened with a hint of pride, "Hehe, Brother Long Chen. I also managed to break through to another realm, and my parents said that I was a genius! I feel so happy when I hear them compliment me like that. Of course, this is also due to my sister's efforts. She managed to get me a Qi Gathering Pill which helped me to raise my cultivation by so much!"

Long Chen gaze turned slightly strange when he heard her words. Although he knew that the woman Xiao Ran who had bided for the Qi Gathering Pill he had refined was from the Xiao Great Family, he never imagined that she was actually Xiao Wan Wan's elder sister.

Out of the 4 Genius Youths, one of them was Xiao Wan Wan's sister, and Xiao Wan Wan herself came from the strongest Xiao Great Family.

The endearing young lady in front of her truly had an impressive background indeed.

Then, she looked up at Long Chen and cutely pouted her lips, "But I still cannot compare to you. Even if the public knew that I had broken the record by breaking through to the Elementary Realm at the age of 14, but they don't know about you at all…"

"While I had advanced to the Elementary Realm, you had already flew to the Sky Realm."

Seeing Xiao Wan Wan's dejected look, Long Chen gave a helpless smile, but did not say anything else.

What could he possibly say anyways?

After a few seconds of silence, Xiao Wan Wan abruptly raised her head up, and meeting her resolute and determined eyes, Long Chen froze for a mere moment.

"But I will not give up! I will definitely catch up to you footsteps, Brother Long Chen!" Her voice was soft and faintly childish, but contained a unyieldingness that went well beyond her age.

He eyed her for a while, and his lips curled up into a warm smile as he fondled her hair, "I will be waiting for you."

They chatted and laughed as they walked, until he was right in front of the wall that led to the other side, where the Sky View Region lay.

"Brother Long Chen, I cannot follow you there any longer." Xiao Wan Wan reluctantly bid farewell to Long Chen after seeing the wall in front of her.

She still did not possess the authority to enter there yet. Clenching her little fists, she swore to herself to be able to qualify as a Chosen as soon as possible.

Then, recalling something, her voice went a few shades softer, "And Brother Long Chen…my parents reminded me to tell you that they want to meet you…And they hope that you can visit if you have the free time."

Long Chen glanced back and casually replied, "I heard that. When I visit the city the next time, I will try my best to see if I have time."

Xiao Wan Wan then walked in front of Long Chen and placed a metallic piece of object within his hands, "Brother Long Chen, this is my family's token. When you visit the Xiao Family, you can flash this token and the people will let you in."

The cold metal token gave his hands a cooling sensation, and lightly running his hands through the slightly jagged edges of the token, he lightly smiled, "When I have time, I will also come and visit you."

"Okay!" Xiao Wan Wan excitedly responded, and her legs slightly bounced up and down in delight.

After saying their farewell, Long Chen took out his Sect Token and placed it on the wall.

An opening appeared, and he stepped through the door and embraced the cool and refreshing environment with open arms.

The gentle wind that blew upon his face, carrying with it the faint fragrance of the flowers and herbs, left him slightly intoxicated.

Since there were only around 60 Chosens living in the area, this place was, most of the time, tranquil and quiet.

The serene environment, coupled with the beautiful scenery and amazing smell that lingered in the air, made this place seem like a literal heaven.

His feet slightly lifted off the ground, floating above the air as both of his arms were clasped behind his back.

Like a refined immortal, he slowly made his way towards his courtyard, with a charming smile hanging on his lips, his eyes relaxed and comfortable.

However, when he reached his courtyard, the smile on his face slightly froze, and his eyes glimmered with a flash of shock.

"What are you doing here?" He lightly cried out in surprise as both his feet softly landed onto the ground.
