Ah Chun: Ascending The Heavens 269 Heaven's Gate City

A chuckle came from outside.  Causing Ah Chun and Xia Yang to turn their heads. "You two sound like old friends." Elder Dan walked into the main hall of Ah Chun's courtyard after seeing the two bickering at each other. 

Ah Chun and Xia Yang both looked at each other and "Humphed". She then got a brilliant idea as she forced some tears to roll out of her eyes and ran over to Elder Dan and hugged her waist. "Wuwu! Master! Sect Master bullied me!"

Xia Yang's face turned black. He looked at the teary eyes Ah Chun, pointed his finger and said: "You old rascal!" 

Elder Dan let out a light laugh. She had never seen Xia Yang so riled up before. Ah Chun wiped her eyes and stuck her tongue out at Xia Yang. This action caused Elder Dan to laugh even harder. 

"You're just jealous because I can get away with it!" Ah Chun teased. She had found that Xia Yang was pretty easy going. 

"Humph! Who would want to be jealous of a grannie pretending to be a child?" In truth, Xia Yang was a bit jealous since he still looked so old while Ah Chun got to look so young and was a lot older than him! 

Seeing the disgruntled look on Xia Yang's face caused Ah Chun to laugh. Time went by and the next day would be the day that Ah Chun would be heading towards the Tribulation tournament. During this time Xia Yang had stopped by to talk to Ah Chun about cultivation almost every day. The two had become good friends. Ah Chun had also reached the fourth rank of qi gathering. Her cultivation speed was not as fast as it was in her last life but it was still considered fast now. 

The Tribulation Tournament was to be held in the largest city in the Primordial Lands, Heaven's Gate City. It was where a lot of the most prestigious clans of the Primordial Lands were located.  And the clan that stood above them all was the Hu clan. The same clan that Hu Miaoyi was apart of.

Ah Chun had a feeling things would be getting interesting when she arrived in the city. Luckily She had both Xiao Feng and Xu Wei with her. So she did not need to worry about any surprise attacks that would kill her. She wondered if Hu Miaoyi would even have the face to tell her clan that she was beaten by a qi gathering cultivator while she was a first rank foundation establishment cultivator. 

Opening her eyes the next morning Ah Chun had finally stabilized her cultivation. "Big Brother Xu." 

Hearing Ah Chun call his name Xu Wei's body flashed and appeared in front of Ah Chun. Seeing how quickly he appeared Ah Chun smiled and said: "When we arrive at Heaven's Gate City, I will need you to be on guard. The Hu clan is the biggest clan within the city. Since I beat one of their clan members they might seek trouble with me."

Ah Chun looked at Xu Wei's expressionless face and felt she was talking to a wall all of a sudden.  But Xu Wei still answered her. "No harm will come to you..."  Before disappearing from sight.

Ah Chun did not know whether to laugh or cry at Xu Wei's behavior. It was at that time she heard a knock at her door. "Come in." 

"Little Chunchun!" Peng An ran into the room and wrapped her arms around Ah Chun. "Ah! I feel so much better now that I got my Chunchun recharge! Oh! I heard Hu Miaoyi is the foundation establishment representative. It seems all her opponents forfeited."

"Yeah not just her either. Amazingly enough, Hou Lexin also made it to the finals and barely secured her place as the disciple to enter the main tournament fro qi condensation. I really wonder how they did it. I think in Hu Miyao's case it was due to her status while Hou Lexin had to fight her way to the spot." Ah Chun who was being bear hugged said. 

"Whatever the case may be, be careful. The Hu Clan is known for their grudges." Peng An advised.

"Un, I know. I could tell by how high and mighty she acted. I just wonder what face she had put on when she told her clan she was beaten by a little girl who was two whole realms lower than her." Ah Chun laughed at the thought of Hu Miaoyi trying to explain what had happened.

"I kinda wish I could have seen it. Most likely though she made up some weird lie to cover her shame." Peng An grumbled. Those big clans always covered their downfalls.

"Either way, Big Sister An, you need to be careful as well they might use you to get to me. Same goes for the others as well." Ah Chun was worried that Hu Miaoyi would still retaliate by using her friends as bait. Especially Peng An since she had laughed at Hu Miaoyi's misfortune. 

"Do not worry. I might not seem it but I am also from a big clan from Heaven's Gate city. The Hu Clan will have to think twice before attacking me within the city walls. This goes for Jing and his brother as well. As for Fatty he has a special ident.i.ty and no one really knows who his backing is. But no one dares to make a fuss about what he does. So we are all pretty safe within the city." Peng An's words eased some of Ah Chun's fears. She just hoped what Pang An said was really true.
