159: Chapter 157 Return to Cloud City_1 159: Chapter 157 Return to Cloud City_1 Lu Chuan hurriedly helped Zhang Baili up and said, “Miracle Doctor Zhang, you really flatter too much.”
Zhang Baili’s face was earnest as he said, “Young man, please don’t call a divine doctor anymore.
In front of you, I really can’t bear that title.
You are the true divine doctor!”
“When I said I wanted to take you as my teacher, I wasn’t playing around.
I truly wish to beco your disciple, so please accept as your apprentice.”
Lu Chuan’s face showed helplessness as he replied, “Miracle Doctor Zhang, I’m really sorry, but I’m afraid I can’t take you as my disciple.”
Seeing Lu Chuan’s resolute attitude, Zhang Baili’s face filled with disappointnt as he asked, “Even if you don’t take as an apprentice, could you at least teach how you healed his necrotic arm?”
Lu Chuan said, “Miracle Doctor Zhang, to be honest, even if I taught you, you wouldn’t be able to learn it, so please stop troubling .”
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to teach, but to achieve what he had done, one must be a cultivator, utilizing spiritual energy to restore a severed arm to normal.
Relying solely on the dical skills of ordinary people, no matter how hard they tried, would not be able to accomplish this.
Zhang Baili thought Lu Chuan just didn’t want to teach him and kept shaking his head, sighing.
Lu Chuan said, “Miracle Doctor Zhang, our eting is fated.
We can exchange contact details.
If you have any questions about dical skills, feel free to call for a discussion.”
Zhang Baili’s eyes lit up, and he hastily said, “Yes, yes, being able to discuss dical skills with you is also an honor for these old bones of mine.”
It wasn’t long before Su Ming washed off the dicinal paste from his arm.
Lu Chuan quickly said goodbye to Zhang Baili and the owner and left the dicinal herb market with Su Ming.
The two then went to a hotel.
Upon seeing Su Ming safe and sound, Mu Nanqing also breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Chuan was filled with emotion.
He had originally thought that it would take a lot of effort to find Mu Nanqing and Su Ming, but it was an unexpected coincidence that had brought them back together.
Smiling, Su Ming glanced at Lu Chuan and Mu Nanqing and said, “This shows that Big Brother and sister-in-law have a telepathic connection.
Even if you were forced to separate, you would reunite at the right ti.”
Lu Chuan imdiately glared at him and said, “What nonsense are you talking about?
Do I need to treat your mouth too?”
Mu Nanqing, however, blushed slightly and smiled very happily.
Quickly taking cover behind Mu Nanqing, Su Ming said, “Sister-in-law, I think I’m right, you have to protect .”
Mu Nanqing waved her hand and said, “Alright, stop the teasing, you two.”
Lu Chuan gave Su Ming a stern look before asking, “Did you take out the hundred-year dicinal herb before I left?”
Hearing this, Su Ming imdiately realized what Lu Chuan ant and quickly said, “I’ve hidden it in a very safe place.”
Lu Chuan nodded and said, “Go get it.
I promised to help you break through, and I won’t go back on my word.”
“Besides, my next plan is to return to Cloud City and take revenge on the father and son duo, Long Tianya and Long Hao.
If you make a breakthrough to the Transcendent Realm, you will be able to protect sister-in-law even better.”
Su Ming nodded earnestly, “I’ll go get it right away.”
In the following days, Lu Chuan and the two briefly settled down in Spring Water City.
Lu Chuan used the hundred-year dicinal herb to refine an elixir pill for Su Ming, who successfully broke through to the Transcendent Realm with the help of the pill.
As a reward for Su Ming risking his life to protect Mu Nanqing, Lu Chuan taught him several profound martial arts skills from the Cultivation World.
With his natural talent and the skills taught by Lu Chuan, Su Ming’s strength was far beyond that of an ordinary person in the Transcendent Realm.
Even though he had just broken through to the Transcendent Realm, facing a master at Transcendent Realm Level 2, he was still able to put up a fight.
Only after seeing the martial arts skills taught by Lu Chuan did Su Ming realize how inscrutable Lu Chuan was.
He originally thought that by breaking through to the Transcendent Realm, he could narrow the gap between him and Lu Chuan.
However, the stronger he beca, the more aware he was of Lu Chuan’s terrifying strength.
This made him grateful for his initial choice, feeling that following Lu Chuan was the most correct decision he had made in his life.
A week later.
Lu Chuan and the party boarded a plane to Cloud City.
Looking through the airplane window, Lu Chuan saw the thick clouds and the endless sky in the distance.
His eyes flashed with a few streaks of sharpness.
On his return, he was determined to avenge his past humiliation and crush Long Hao beneath his feet!
He also had to kill Long Tianya, fulfilling the promise he had made to Gu Hongzhuang.
Of course, before all this, he had to force out the reason from Long Tianya’s mouth why he wanted to kill his own mother.
anwhile.
In Cloud City, at the Chu family residence.
Chu ngyao sat in front of her vanity, her makeup delicate, but her brows were filled with worry.
Behind her on a clothes rack hung a wedding dress and a bridal costu.
These had been sent over by Long Hao.
Tomorrow was to be her wedding day to Long Hao.
The Long family had already sent out a wide array of invitations, calling upon many relatives and friends; the entire Cloud City was buzzing about the wedding.
Chu ngyao was naturally extrely unwilling, but due to the power and influence of the Long family, she had no choice but to agree.
Fortunately, Long Hao had been struck by lightning inflicted by Lu Chuan on the stear, resulting in serious injuries, and had only recently recovered.
He had no energy to bother her, allowing her so peace during this period.
Yet, although her life was peaceful, her heart could never find stillness.
Soone knocked on the door at that mont.
“Co in,” said Chu ngyao indifferently.
The person entering was Secretary Zhang.
Upon seeing Secretary Zhang, Chu ngyao hurriedly stood up, walked over to her, and asked anxiously, “How is it?
Any news?”
Secretary Zhang shook her head and said, “Mr.
Chu, Lu Chuan has been missing for such a long ti.
If he were truly alive, we should have heard sothing by now.
We have been searching for so long without any clues; I’m afraid Lu Chuan may already have…”
Chu ngyao’s face turned cold as she interrupted sternly, “Shut your mouth!”
Seeing Chu ngyao’s deanor, Secretary Zhang had no choice but to sigh helplessly.
“If he’s still alive, to avoid the Long family’s pursuit, it’s normal that he would go into hiding and leave no trace,” Chu ngyao tried to convince herself.
Secretary Zhang said, “Mr.
Chu, why do you tornt yourself like this?
You’re about to marry into the Long family.
Lu Chuan has beco a thing of the past.
Whether he’s dead or alive, it has nothing to do with you anymore.”
Chu ngyao wanted to argue but felt the surge of emotions and her eyes quickly moistened.
She sat back down, placed her hand on her forehead, and struggled to control herself, to keep the tears from falling and ruining the makeup on her face.
All this ti, she had been living in tornt, and the belief that kept her struggling to survive was the conviction that Lu Chuan was still alive.
If Lu Chuan were truly dead, she didn’t know what the aning in living was anymore.
“You may leave now, I want to be alone for a while,” Chu ngyao spoke.
Secretary Zhang hesitated, but in the end, she just sighed and left the room.
Chu ngyao took a deep breath, calming her emotions.
She looked at herself in the mirror for a while and then took out a delicate dagger from the drawer of her vanity.
She tried to hide the dagger in her sleeve; it was neither too large nor too small, just the right fit.
She practiced several tis how to quickly draw the dagger from her sleeve and then made stabbing motions toward her own neck.
Soon, Zhao Haitang’s voice called out, “Yaoyao, co out and try on the shoes.”
“I know,” replied Chu ngyao as she tucked away the dagger and took one more look at herself in the mirror, her gaze filled with an added asure of determination.
