Chapter 56: Ma Xiaotao Comes Out Swinging
Dugu Xianmeng was a domineering woman. She wanted Zhou Sichen to herself—but she also knew that wasn't realistic.
Even if Zhou Sichen was willing, the family behind him would never approve.
She understood this very well, coming from a clan with millennia of history.
Especially given how outstanding Zhou Sichen was—there was no way he'd be lacking admirers in the future.
Still, after the words they exchanged today, she was confident her position in his heart was the highest.
Without wasting time, Dugu Xianmeng accepted the pill and happily returned to her room to cultivate.
She knew catching up to Zhou Sichen would be extremely difficult, but if she didn't at least try, she'd never have a chance.
At the very least, in terms of soul power level, she currently held the advantage.
With that Soul-Nourishing Pill, she was certain she could break through to rank 50 within a month.
As soon as she acquired her fifth spirit ring, her soul power level would surpass Zhou Sichen's by a wide margin. Even if her actual combat ability didn't compare, she'd still hold the upper hand in raw soul power.
Not long after Dugu Xianmeng left, just as Zhou Sichen was about to retreat to the villa's secret training room, there was another knock at the gate.
