176: Chapter 173: Giving You a Chance_1 176: Chapter 173: Giving You a Chance_1 The next morning at dawn.
Qin Lan and the won who had arranged Lu Chuan’s appearance returned to Cloud City with the supplies they had just bought.
A group of won chattered nonstop, gossiping about so of the n in the sect.
As they entered the All Joy Sect, they all sharply sensed sothing amiss.
“Why is it so quiet?
According to normal practice, shouldn’t they be collectively training in the morning?
How co it feels like there’s no one inside the sect?” one woman wondered aloud.
Another woman looked towards the distance and suddenly exclaid, “Look over at the training hall!”
Several of them quickly looked in the direction of the training hall, a spot from where they could clearly see its condition.
All they saw was a field of charred blackness, devastated and desolate as if it had gone through so cataclysmic disaster, which was a shocking sight.
“What… what happened here?” a group of won gasped, stunned by the scene.
“Could it be that the training hall caught fire?
But there is nothing on top of the training hall that could burn, right?
How could such a huge fire have started?” another woman said.
“If you pile up all the people of All Joy Sect there, couldn’t it start a fire then?” At this mont, a voice floated leisurely.
The won were startled and quickly turned around to look behind them.
Lu Chuan walked out with Suzumiya Ichikazu, a mocking smile on his face.
Qin Lan’s complexion drastically changed as she cried out, “Lu Chuan, you, you, how did you get out!”
Lu Chuan said with a smile, “Why not?
Having destroyed the All Joy Sect, shouldn’t I be able to walk out?”
Qin Lan’s pupils shrank sharply.
She knew Lu Chuan was not the type to boast.
If he said the All Joy Sect was destroyed, then it was likely true.
But wasn’t he turned into a furnace for the Sect Master?
He should have been played with until he beca trash, right?
The surrounding won clearly didn’t believe Lu Chuan’s words, scorn appearing on their faces.
“Kid, do you have any idea how many people are in All Joy Sect?
You think you alone could destroy the sect?
Even bragging should have its limits,” said one woman to Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan replied with a laugh, “If you don’t believe , you can go and take a look at the training hall for yourself.”
That woman snorted coldly, “Fine, I’ll look.
I don’t believe you could have killed everyone in All Joy Sect.”
Then she turned and headed towards the training hall.
About five minutes later, the woman ca back.
Her face was now pale, and she wore an expression of terror as if she had seen sothing horrific.
Seeing her return, the other won hurriedly asked, “How was it, was that guy just boasting?”
The woman glanced at the others and, without saying a word, suddenly couldn’t hold back and began vomiting.
The rest of the won were all puzzled.
One of them asked, “Why are you throwing up?
What did you see?”
The woman, with fear written all over her face, looked at Lu Chuan and said, “This guy’s a devil, we need to run!”
Without looking back, she fled.
Even if the other won were slow to realize, by now they could guess why that woman ran—All Joy Sect had indeed likely been destroyed by Lu Chuan!
They didn’t dare mock Lu Chuan any further and turned and ran, abandoning everything they had been carrying.
Seeing this, Qin Lan also broke into a run.
But in the next second, Lu Chuan grabbed her arm.
He paid no mind to the fleeing won.
After all, these people had been captured and brought to All Joy Sect, and to survive, they had to comply with the sect, so there was no need for a ruthless extermination.
Qin Lan turned pale with fear, trembling as she looked at Lu Chuan, “Lu… Lu Chuan, spare , I realize my mistake.
Please, for the sake of the tis we’ve spent together, grant a chance to live!”
Lu Chuan slapped her across the face and said coldly, “Did you think of giving a chance to live when you tricked into coming here?”
Qin Lan fell to the ground, holding her face and pitifully said, “I… I did think about it, I even approached you to make ands, but… but you didn’t appreciate my feelings.”
Lu Chuan was speechless.
“I must have been blind to see soone like you as the object of my pursuit.”
“But since you’ve ntioned it, since we were once together, I’m not a heartless person.
Considering our past, I’ll give you a chance.”
Qin Lan’s eyes lit up, looking at Lu Chuan gratefully, “Really?
Lu Chuan, if I could do it all over, I swear I would love you sincerely, stay true to you.
I regret my foolishness now, and if you give a chance, I swear I’ll start anew and change!”
Lu Chuan curled his lip and said to Suzumiya Ichikazu, “Ichikazu, find so rope and tie her hands.”
“Yes, Master!” Suzumiya Ichikazu imdiately went to look for a rope.
Soon she returned with a rope and tied Qin Lan’s hands.
Qin Lan, confused, asked, “What…
what are you doing?”
Lu Chuan replied, “Giving you a chance to redeem yourself.”
He then looked at Suzumiya Ichikazu and said, “Take her shoes off.”
Suzumiya Ichikazu imdiately went over and removed Qin Lan’s shoes.
Lu Chuan said, “Pull her along, let’s go.”
Suzumiya Ichikazu seed a bit conflicted and said, “Master, our belongings…”
Lu Chuan rolled his eyes at her and picked up the bundle containing their things, “I’ll carry it.”
Suzumiya Ichikazu’s face bead with happiness, “Master, you’re so kind.”
Then the three of them headed down the mountain.
With no shoes on, Qin Lan’s feet soon beca cut and bloodied from the rugged mountain path strewn with sharp stones.
She wanted to escape, but with Suzumiya Ichikazu holding the rope, she had no chance whatsoever.
She kept pleading, hoping that Lu Chuan would let her go, but Lu Chuan simply ignored her, flipping over several mountains in succession.
Eventually, Qin Lan was utterly exhausted and on her last breath.
Her two feet beca a bloody ss, bleeding unceasingly, and she could barely walk any further.
At that mont, howls of wolves echoed from all around.
Lu Chuan stopped, turned his head towards Suzumiya Ichikazu, and said, “Let her go.”
Seeing this, Qin Lan thought Lu Chuan was finally going to release her and burst into tears, saying, “Lu Chuan, I truly understand my mistake now, I will rember this lesson for a lifeti, thank you for sparing .”
Lu Chuan flashed her a smile and said, “Who said I was going to let you go?”
A chill ran through Qin Lan’s heart.
Lu Chuan continued, “There are packs of wolves roaming this mountain, and you have left a trail of blood all along the way.
Those wolves must have already caught your scent.”
“Barefoot, you’ve flipped over several mountains, so by now you probably can’t walk anymore, right?”
“This is your last chance.
It’s nearly nightfall, and the wolves will beco active.
If you can make it out of this mountain alive, I won’t bother you in the future, and we’ll consider our feud settled.”
Having said this, he turned his head towards Suzumiya Ichikazu and said, “Let’s go.”
Suzumiya Ichikazu threw down the rope in his hand and followed Lu Chuan as they turned to leave together.
Qin Lan fell to the ground, her face full of despair as she scread, “Don’t go!
Don’t leave behind; my feet are ruined, and I can’t walk at all.
The wolves will eat !”
Lu Chuan didn’t pay her any attention or show any sympathy, quickly disappearing from Qin Lan’s sight along with Suzumiya Ichikazu.
Qin Lan broke down in tears, her fear escalating to its utmost limit.
Just then, another howl of a wolf rang out, causing her to shiver uncontrollably with fright, her courage breaking to the point that she wet herself.
…
After several twists and turns, Lu Chuan finally returned to Cloud City with Suzumiya Ichikazu.
Although they had been tricked by Ruan Nan and Qin Lan this ti, they fortuitously brought back over a dozen hundred-year dicinal herbs and twenty Profound Ice Stones, making the outco quite satisfactory.
With these twenty Profound Ice Stones, Lu Chuan was now ready to start concocting the Composite Array Formation, which could aid in cultivation.
Hanging Gourd dical Hall.
Lu Chuan explained the origins of Suzumiya Ichikazu to Mu Nanqing, Su Ming, and Zhou Siming.
“Sister-in-law, let her do so chores around the dical hall in the future,” he said.
Mu Nanqing looked at Suzumiya Ichikazu with dissatisfaction, thinking to herself that Xiaochuan’s charm was just too overwhelming; he brings back a girl every ti he steps outside.
If this continues, I…
Fortunately, Suzumiya Ichikazu was much younger than Lu Chuan, and it seed unlikely anything would happen between them.
With this thought, she sowhat reassured herself and took Suzumiya Ichikazu to familiarize herself with the work at the dical hall.
Su Ming gave Lu Chuan a thumbs up, “Big brother, it’s got to be you, even such a tender young girl you’ve managed to bring back.
One day you should write down your flirting tactics, I’d definitely be your most loyal fan!”
Lu Chuan raised his hand as if to strike Su Ming, “Keep talking nonsense and I’ll tear up your mouth!”
Su Ming quickly dodged, laughing heh-heh and said, “I’m just complinting you.”
Lu Chuan glared at him and then turned around to hand over the dozen hundred-year dicinal herbs to Zhou Siming, saying, “Old Zhou, you’ve already learned how to concoct the Black Dragon Pill, so help turn all these herbs into Black Dragon Pills.”
The Black Dragon Pill is a high-quality Spirit Pill that can enhance cultivation levels.
Whether it’s for Lu Chuan or Su Ming, consuming it would bring endless benefits.
Not long ago, Lu Chuan taught Zhou Siming how to concoct the Black Dragon Pill, which could save him a lot of ti.
Zhou Siming accepted them with a smile, saying, “Rest assured, I’ll get the job done.”
Lu Chuan nodded and then said to Su Ming, “I need to enter seclusion for a while.
During this ti, keep an eye on the dical hall and don’t let any trouble arise.”
With a salute, Su Ming promised, “Understood!”
Without further ado, Lu Chuan went to his own room, set up restrictions to ensure no one would disturb him, and began to focus on concocting the Formation.
That afternoon.
Su Ming went out with Mu Nanqing and Suzumiya Ichikazu to buy dicinal herbs.
anwhile, Zhou Siming successfully concocted three Black Dragon Pills using the dozen hundred-year dicinal herbs.
The rich aroma of the pills perated the entire dical hall, making all the patients who ca for treatnt feel refreshed and invigorated.
Just then, a young man accompanied by two bodyguards walked into the dical hall, attracted by the rich dicinal fragrance.
He approached Zhou Siming and asked, “Did you produce this dicinal scent?”
Feeling proud, Zhou Siming answered on his face, “Correct, it is indeed from the elixir pills I have concocted that this dicinal scent emanates.”
The young man’s eyes flickered and he asked, “Could you let see what kind of elixir pills you concocted?”
Zhou Siming, eager to show off his success at concocting such a top-tier elixir for the first ti, handed over the bottle containing the three Black Dragon Pills, saying, “You can only take a look for a mont, then give it right back to .”
The young man smiled as he took the jade bottle, glanced at the elixir pills inside, his eyes lighting up.
“These pills look pretty extraordinary.”
Zhou Siming held his head high, smiling as he said, “This pill is called the Black Dragon Pill, a real miracle dicine.
Consuming one can enhance the abilities of a Transcendent Realm skillful expert by one or even two levels.
It’s certainly not ordinary.”
Excited, the young man’s expression changed, “That powerful?”
Zhou Siming responded, “Of course, now you have had your look, give the pills back to .”
The young man sneered, tucking the jade bottle into his pocket and said, “What pills?
I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Zhou Siming’s face darkened, realizing he had been too busy showing off to notice that he didn’t know the young man at all.
Frowning, he said, “What’s your intention here?
Return the Black Dragon Pills to !”
With a scoff, the young man replied, “You talking about the Black Dragon Pills?
These are divine pills I went through great pains to obtain, why should I give them to you?”
“You shaless thief!
Give back the pills!” Zhou Siming was desperate, attempting to snatch the pill bottle from the young man’s chest.
The young man pushed him away, cursing, “Damn it, you dare to rob my pills, I think you’re tired of living!”
He turned to his two bodyguards and ordered, “Beat up this old fool, let him learn what happens when he tries to steal from Xu Shaoming!”
