**My Senior Brother is Super Strong
Chapter 51**
Lu Chen refused Xia Yu's request without hesitation.
"Sister Xia Yu, you think too highly of me," he said. "My strength is weak. If I go, I will only cause trouble for you. Please ask someone wiser."
Xia Yu was stunned; she didn't expect Lu Chen to refuse so directly. She hadn't experienced rejection in a long time. With her identity and appearance, few people who came into contact with her, whether men or women, would reject her request like this.
Lu Chen was the first.
No wonder her sister said it was difficult to deal with.
Bian Rourou had a bad feeling towards Lu Chen, but hearing that he rejected her senior sister made her sneer. "Are you afraid?"
Lu Chen did not deny it; he nodded and said, "Yes, I'm afraid. The secret realm is so dangerous; I don't dare to go there."
Bian Rourou was momentarily stunned and couldn't find the words.
Lu Chen's direct admission of fear was beyond her expectations. Men, even ordinary mortal men, care about their pride. Even if they died, they wouldn't admit they were afraid and wouldn't lose face.
Seeing Lu Chen's unconcerned demeanor, Bian Rourou gritted her teeth in anger. "Are you still not a man?"
Lu Chen shot back, "I'm a man; do you want to try me?"
"Fuck, bastard!"
Bian Rourou's slanderous remark made her so furious that she stamped her feet and wanted to draw her sword to fight.
Several girls present blushed slightly at the exchange.
Xiao Ye lowered her head and took a few steps away from Lu Chen. It was hard to feel proud or dignified with a second senior brother like him.
Lin Tian scolded Lu Chen, "Stop spouting nonsense. Senior Sister Xia Yu is here to ask you for help. Please assist her."
Lu Chen said, "Master, if you want to help her, feel free. I'm not going anywhere."
Xia Yu is the most beautiful woman in Qizhou, but in Lu Chen's opinion, the "first beauty" equals trouble—a significant kind of trouble. Not to mention that assisting Xia Yu in exploring the secret realm would be dangerous. Just following her would invite countless issues.
Xia Yu stated, "Uncle Lin is a master of the Nascent Soul Stage. The secret realm cannot withstand the pressure of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator. So, only Junior Brother Lu can help me."
Lu Chen replied, "Senior Sister Xia Yu, don't elevate me to such a high pedestal. If you want to find someone to help, raise your arms, and thousands will come forth. Countless people are willing to go through fire and water for you. Just don't involve me; I'm most afraid of trouble."
Lu Chen thought to himself; if it weren't for her status as a beauty, he wouldn't even bother having this discussion.
Then Lu Chen glared at Ji Yan with a warning gleam in his eyes, "Since you caused this trouble, take care of her for me."
Ji Yan rolled his eyes at him and replied coolly, "It's none of my business that she comes to see you."
Lu Chen fumed, "Don't act innocent for me. If you don't deal with her, don't blame me for being rude to you."
Ji Yan smiled coldly, a hint of mischief in his eyes. "Want to fight? I'm in the Nascent Soul Stage."
Lu Chen was so furious he gritted his teeth. "If you have the guts, suppress your cultivation to the same level as mine and see how I deal with you."
Really!
Xia Yu, Fang Xiao, and Bian Rourou all overheard Lu Chen and found their assessment of his strength increasing slightly.
In the same realm, not being afraid of scheming proved how formidable he truly was.
Xia Yu was beginning to believe Fang Xiao's words and hoped that Lu Chen could help. "Junior Brother Lu, please help me. I feel uncomfortable asking anyone else."
Lu Chen was surprised and looked at Ji Yan. "What good things did you say about me to Senior Sister Xia Yu?"
"How is it that Senior Sister Xia Yu trusts me so much? Didn't you tell her that I am despicable, shameless, greedy, and selfish?"
Everyone was speechless. They had seen people praise themselves for being handsome, invincible, or righteous, but they had never met anyone who openly admitted to being despicable and shameless.
Xiao Ye even covered her face, feeling the embarrassment. Second Senior Brother, although you are like this, why do you say it so confidently? It gives me a strange feeling.
Xia Yu was speechless for a long time. Finally, she said, "It seems that Junior Brother Lu is not willing to help me."
Lu Chen did not deny it. "Yes, I don't want to."
Fang Xiao interjected, "Mr. Lu, if you are willing to help, my sister will not make you miss out on benefits."
"Spirit stones?"
Lu Chen's face lit up with excitement.
Xia Yu stated, "Spirit stones are easy to discuss. You can have as many as you want. Additionally, there are treasures of heaven and earth in the secret realm. When Junior Brother Lu finds them, they will all belong to you. I won't snatch them from you."
As a disciple of Shuangyue Valley, there was never a shortage of spirit stones.
Lu Chen hesitated. No way; he was poor. In front of the promise of spirit stones, he felt he could consider anything.
However!
Seeing Xia Yu's stunning face, Lu Chen reluctantly refused.
Xia Yu, the most beautiful woman, was a significant source of trouble. He'd better remain inconspicuous and earn spirit stones and other things slowly.
Finally, Lu Chen shook his head and said, "Forget it; no amount of spirit stones will change my mind."
Fang Xiao was stunned. She didn't expect Lu Chen to refuse even now.
She looked at Lu Chen closely. This guy was not simple. He had ideas but could resist a considerable temptation.
Xia Yu was equally surprised that Lu Chen would still refuse at this point.
Lu Chen's continual refusals annoyed Xia Yu, who had been frightened and indifferent.
She shifted her attention to Ji Yan. "Senior Brother Ji Yan, you are the senior brother. Can you help persuade Junior Brother Lu?"
Ji Yan responded, "If you want him to help, it's very simple."
Simple?
Xia Yu thought to herself that she had been trying to persuade him for most of the day, yet she still couldn't convince him. Wow, you're truly worthy of being a senior brother. Have you already found a way to do this?
Xia Yu looked at Ji Yan with beautiful eyes, curious about his solution.
Ji Yan replied, "With your strength, just beat him up and ensure he behaves."
Xia Yu and the others were stunned.
Lu Chen yelled, "Whose side are you on?"
"Have you ever treated your junior brother like this?"
"Are you sick? You must be sick."
