Chapter 20 - Imperial Capital

Great Blaze Nation - Imperial Capital.

What is said to be the grand event of the Imperial Capital is actually just the preliminary selection by the immortal sects for new disciples.

The conditions for passing are quite lenient, a spiritual root above the third rank, good character, and the favor of the examiner in charge of the assessment.

After the preliminary selection, those who pass can follow the sect elder they admire to the sect's base for the real assessment. If they pass, they will be admitted to the sect; if not, they will be sent back.

This event held in the Imperial Capital is actually led by the royal family of the Great Blaze Nation, aiming to let those talents within the country who hope to enter the immortal sects get to know each other, and to increase their sense of belonging to their hometown.

At least in the future, if they happen to be successful, they will not forget that they are people of the Great Blaze Nation and will help their hometown when the Great Blaze Nation encounters a disaster.

Su Hui and Cao Yi are among the later arrivals, arriving in the Imperial Capital on the night before the immortal sect assessors arrive.

After a long journey, they naturally have no leisure to get to know those so-called outstanding talents of the Great Blaze Nation and go directly to the room arranged by Cao Yi and go to sleep.

The Cao Family Chamber of Commerce has a good reputation within the Great Blaze Nation, with branches in all major cities. With the business growing, the various connections are complicated and frightening.

Therefore, as soon as the president of the Cao Family Chamber of Commerce, Cao Yang, arrived in the Imperial Capital, he was taken out to drink and party by some city lords of the major cities, and Cao Yi, the future heir of the chamber of commerce, was also not idle.

She needs to first memorize the situation of each city, at least to let those city lords have a general impression of her.

In this way, if the path of immortality is not feasible in the future, she can return home with a broken heart and smoothly inherit the hundreds of millions of family property...

When arriving in the Imperial Capital, it was not long after noon, and Su Hui, who slept in the afternoon, had no sleepiness at all in the evening.

So he climbed up to the roof from the room through the window, and without caring about the dust on the bricks and tiles, he lay down directly with his hands behind his head.

Lying on the roof and looking up at the starry sky is what he liked to do most in his previous life.

At that time, he did not pass the assessment of the immortal sect because of his poor spiritual root and low cultivation, and could only build a two-story house at the foot of the Yanyue Immortal Mountain.

The roof of the cabin was made into a huge terrace, filled with various equipment and materials for refining elixirs, with only a small lounge chair in the corner.

Sometimes when the rich woman was tired of refining elixirs or failed, she would run over and throw herself into his arms for comfort, and then lie with him on that lounge chair to watch the stars.

The two would argue in a low voice about what the stars in the sky were indicating. Su Hui, who had never studied astrology, would only talk nonsense, and it was always just one sentence:

"The Mars tonight is very bright."

The rich woman asked him, "What is Mars?"

Su Hui was silent and then replied, "A star that spits fire."

The rich woman was more knowledgeable than him and knew more things, but every argument was won by him.

No other reason, every time he couldn't argue, Su Hui would hold the rich woman's waist and then gently breathe in her ear. If it was not enough, he would directly go up and block her mouth.

Shameless, but it was effective every time.

After kissing, the rich woman would only snuggle in his arms and hum, and then agree with all his fallacies.

For example, the continent is square, the fairydom has been occupied by lizard people, the end of the world in 2012, the little monster has to eat four or five Ultraman every meal...

At that time, the years were quiet, the elixir stove, the rocking chair, the starry sky, everything on the roof was the rich woman's.

Only the rich woman was his.

However, the rich woman seemed to be very infatuated with his arms, and she would fall asleep quietly after watching the stars for a while...

Creak - the wooden door always has such problems, and it will come with an anti-theft system after a long time. No matter who opens it, it will make a harsh hum.

A slender figure leaped onto the roof from the place where Su Hui had just climbed, wearing a gorgeous purple dress, and lay down beside Su Hui, looking at the starry sky with him.

"How did you know I was here?"

Cao Yi's face was red due to alcohol, and she rolled her eyes at him: "My room is upstairs from you. When you just came up, you passed my balcony, and the footprints left were too obvious..."

"Damn it! My shoes are so clean and still leave footprints. Is the cleaning staff in your inn so dedicated, even wiping the balcony so clean?"

Cao Yi curled her lips and ignored him.

It is now gradually entering late autumn, and the evening wind brings a bit of coldness. She gathered her thin dress and looked at Su Hui's large black robe.

Su Hui noticed her gaze and blinked.

"Are you very cold?"

"Yes, my dress is made of silk, which is good-looking, but it's not very cold-resistant."

"Indeed, I am also very cold."

"..."

"At this time, as a gentleman, you should take off your coat and let me wear it."

"Oh, then I am not a gentleman."

"???"

Cao Yi sighed: "Su Hui, a person like you will definitely not find a girlfriend, and you will be a bachelor for a lifetime."

Su Hui raised his voice: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"What makes you so sure?"

"Because there is a person who has been waiting for me at the Yanyue Immortal Sect."

"You are so stingy that you don't even want to give a girl a piece of clothing. Who would like such a stingy man!"

"I am also cold!" Su Hui angrily opened his coat. "Come on, if you dare, you can wear it together."

"Am I going to drill in?"

"Come on!"

"Am I really going to drill in?"

"Drill!"

Cao Yi bit her lip, propped up her body and drilled into Su Hui's arms, but what she was greeted with was not a warm embrace, but an empty robe.

Su Hui, who took off his coat, had already stood up and threw that robe on Cao Yi's face, cursing: "Damn it, you really drill in, do you understand that men and women should not be close?"

Cao Yi glanced at him: "I knew you would be timid."

"Timid!?"

"Joking, I Su Hui would be timid? I am very brave, okay!"

"If you are not timid, what did you just dodge for?"

"I am afraid I can't control myself, and you will scream in pain later."

"Why should I scream?"

"Stay out of adult matters."

"Damn it, Su Hui, I am a few months older than you!"

Cao Yi suddenly paused, as if she had understood what Su Hui had just said, and a blush appeared on her face, which was covered by the night: "Pah, you are just a mouthful of waves, in fact, you are physically weak and can't do it, right?"

"Damn it, Cao Yi, you are questioning me!?"

"Yes, I am questioning you. If you don't want me to question, then prove it to me."

Su Hui gritted his teeth: "Do you believe I will let your father hold a fat grandson in nine months from today!?"

"Just talking is fake!"

"If you dare, come on, my room is below, do you dare to go? Come on, let my bed sheet be full of plum blossoms."

...

"Next time for sure..."

Su Hui slipped away with a gray face.

He has always been a strong king of words, with a hidden heart under his handsome appearance.

From small to large, no good-looking maid in the Su Mansion has not been teased by him in words, so the rumor of the Su family's eldest young master with poor talent and being a scum man has been widely spread in the Black Iron City.

As a result, he, the Su family's eldest young master, the most handsome man in the Black Iron City, has no other maids in the courtyard except for Cheng Xiaohe, who is forced by life...

But the heavens can testify, at least in this life, so far he is still just a rookie.

The only opposite sex he has had physical contact with is Cheng Xiaohe and her annoying bear child, Cheng Xiaomiao.

And the most overstepping behavior they have done is just pinching the face.

Like most men, Su Hui has a wandering heart, but he has no courage to wander.

If he had half of the strength of a scum man, Cheng Xiaohe

would have been forced and coaxed by him, eaten and cleaned up, and then thrown out of the Su Mansion in the cold winter.

I didn't expect that now the scum man's mood has not been practiced, and his mouth skills are actually not as good as others!?

Damn, how can he be a scum man in the future, how can he be ruthless and make a decisive decision for all ages!?

He still needs to learn from the capitalists humbly...

Su Hui's departure made the roof quiet again.

Cao Yi hugged the clothes, sat on the roof and shook her head, the main reason for her boldness tonight was mainly because she had been a good girl in Luo City for too long.

As the eldest daughter of the Cao family, she must pay attention to the measure in her actions and words, and she has been familiar with emotional intelligence since she was a child, which may not be a sorrow.

So after coming into contact with Su Hui, who is strong, full of mysteries, and has a character like a street ruffian, she will inadvertently show her true colors.

Plus, she did drink a lot of wine today.

Su Hui must be able to smell the wine on her.

So whatever she does, whatever she says, can be regarded as drunken words, and she can deny it the next day when she wakes up.

However, after burying her face in that black robe, Cao Yi still couldn't help sighing.

She thought her body could become the biggest chip in her hand in the future, but she didn't expect to die before the teacher came out, and even if she gave it to others for free, they wouldn't want it...
