Chapter 144 - Showdown!
Another life-threatening attack closed in on Long Chen instantly. You can’t be reasoned with; all you want to do is kill me ...
At this moment, Long Chen was completely calm.
He knew he had value and that Liu Lan wouldn’t let him die by Chu Yunxi’s hand.
And so, he sat cross-legged, fully relaxed, and used the Black-tier Life Combat Technique Recovery to treat his injuries.
As expected, as Chu Yunxi angrily charged at Long Chen, a curvy figure shot out of the house and stood in his path. She thrusted a palm at Chu Yunxi to block him, and this powerful move immediately sent him flying back!
This was Long Chen’s first time witnessing Liu Lan’s strength. Indeed, someone at the late Earthly Core Realm was powerful. Just one random move was enough to throw the Turquoise family’s number one prodigy back!
“Sister, did you just attack me to protect him?” Chu Yunxi’s eyes were bloodshot and his face darkened.
“Yunxi, don’t think too much about it.”
Liu Lan turned and gazed at Long Chen, as if sad that he was hurt. She faked a pained expression and said to Chu Yunxi, “Since you’ve already seen it, I no longer want to hide it from you. I hadn’t agreed to your proposal before this because there is someone I like ...”
Long Chen almost vomited blood over the lies.
He was about to scold Liu Lan, but she had anticipated this. She turned around and gently placed a hand on Long Chen’s shoulder, out of Chu Yunxi’s view. Long Chen immediately swallowed his words.
“Is he the person you speak of?”
Chu Yunxi looked like he wanted to swallow Long Chen whole. Long Chen was also furious, because he had just made a huge enemy for no reason and almost died. However, Liu Lan was stronger than him and he couldn’t say a word under her control!
“I know him. I heard he’s also participating in the inner family qualifiers, right? Good! Good! Good!”
The furious Chu Yunxi’s heart clenched painfully when he recalled the scene he had just witnessed. He glared at Long Chen and smirked. “You attacked me because of him ... I still am no match for you, but the day of the inner family qualifiers will also be the day that brat dies!”
He glared at Long Chen like a fierce beast for a while, then his broken-hearted gaze fell on Liu Lan. He bit his lip, then he turned and left.
Today’s events had driven him crazy.
***
After Chu Yunxi left for the Turquoise Willow Residence, Liu Yuan and Chu Fengqing had nothing to do but drink some wine to pass the time.
“Brother Liu, why do you think your daughter asked to meet my son alone?”
Liu Yuan was equally confused, so he smiled awkwardly. “The girl has always been unpredictable. How would I know?”
Liu Lan froze, then she smirked, as if challenging him. “If you can beat Chu Yunxi and enter the inner family, I’m yours to torture.”
Long Chen clenched his fists, but he released them in the end. He was indeed no match for Liu Lan right now. Even though she had brutally used him, there was nothing else he could do.
“Do you really think I want you?” Long Chen burst into a snicker. “I have so many girls! Why would I put in effort for an auntie like you?”
“Auntie?” Liu Lan almost fainted from anger. She was about to rage, but he had walked off without even turning back.
She watched as he left. Although he was injured, he still stood as straight as a lance. Did I overdo it, using him like that? Once he gets stronger, he’ll surely come back to bite me ...
Liu Lan shuddered when she recalled what had happened to Huang Feiyang and the Grand Priest. Whatever. At least that Chu Yunxi brat has completely given up on me. That brat may look like a gentleman, but he’s actually aggressive and arrogant. My life would be ruined if I married him. How could I, Liu Lan, live a life of codependency and be at the mercy of his whims ...
These were her true thoughts. She was extremely repulsed by Chu Yunxi; therefore, she had to resort to these tactics to make him give up on her completely.
The relationship between the Turquoise Sun Hall and the Turquoise Imperial Hall is completely ruined. However, this was destined to happen ever since Chu Yunxi set his mind on me.
Liu Lan looked defeated.
She thought about Long Chen and how quickly he had grown, nodding approvingly. Now, I can only bet on him. He has created miracle after miracle. The more pressure he has, the faster he grows. Since Chu Yunxi attempted to kill him today, he’ll definitely take revenge during the inner family qualifiers!
Liu Lan was very familiar with Long Chen’s behavior.
Everything that had happened today looked sudden, but it was all within Liu Lan’s control. She had mastered the personalities of Chu Yunxi and Long Chen. It was clear just how high-level her tactics were. But with the lies I told just now, if he really gets lucky and joins the inner family, I’ll be ...
And when she thought about Long Chen’s dazed look when he saw her body, she suddenly felt her cheeks heat up ...
***
Long Chen had been used, out of the blue, and almost died. It was impossible not to be furious. That crazy woman is terrifying! I think she’s been planning this for a long time. And I, the idiot I am, literally walked into the hole she dug! Now I’ve made an enemy in Chu Yunxi and got myself injured ...
When he thought of Chu Yunxi, his killing intent intensified.
Liu Lan had only used him as a shield to block herself from Chu Yunxi. However, Chu Yunxi actually wanted to kill him. And he had almost succeeded.
He didn’t even see me as another human being, treating my life so lightly just because he’s stronger and has a higher status than me ...
Long Chen also had Chu Yunxi’s personality figured out. Even if Chu Yunxi knew the truth, he still wouldn’t let Long Chen live. Also, Old Man Liu said that we’ll have to team up for the inner family qualifiers. How will we work together now? I’m afraid he’ll kill me the moment the event starts!
His brows were deeply furrowed. Damn that bitch! She keeps making me enemies, and she took it way too far this time. Aren’t you afraid of burning yourself when you play with fire like that? I am Long Chen! I’m not a sheep for you to play with!
Long Chen didn’t dare let Ling Xi see him injured like this. First, he didn’t know how he would explain what had happened. Even if he did explain clearly, with Ling Xi’s hatred towards Liu Lan, she might rush over and kill the woman.
He hid in a corner of Turquoise Willow Residence and started to heal his injuries using Recovery while consuming the remaining intermediate Black-tier spiritual herbs that Liu Lan had given him. However, it was only enough to heal most of his injuries. If he held it together, other people wouldn’t be able to tell that he was injured.
Long Chen finally went back to the Level One disciple quarters. He was approaching them when he met Gan Lin, who had a strange expression when he suddenly spotted Long Chen. Shaking his head, he said, “Long Chen, I didn’t expect you’d end up with Madam Administrator in the end. But there’s going to be a lot of obstacles ahead. I don’t think Chu Yunxi will let you go ...”
“What did you say?” Long Chen’s eyes widened.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
