179: Chapter 176: Find a Way to Take It Down Directly_1 179: Chapter 176: Find a Way to Take It Down Directly_1 Xu Shaoming escaped from the hotel and found a deserted place to curse in the direction of the hotel.
“Damn it, you only dare to treat this way because Cloud City is your turf.
If you have the guts, go to the provincial city, and then we’ll see if you still have the courage to challenge !”
“Making write an IOU and swear…do you really think I’ll give you thirty hundred-year dicinal herbs?
Dream on!
I just had to compromise to get away!”
“I’ll rember this grudge.
Sooner or later, I’ll make you kneel before and beg for rcy!”
After cursing for a while, Xu Shaoming finally vented his anger.
At that mont, his phone rang.
It was his father, Xu Yuan, calling.
“Dad…” Xu Shaoming answered the call, wanting to tell his father about his recent ordeal and urge him to send so experts to take revenge on his behalf.
But Xu Yuan was extrely excited and didn’t give him a chance to speak, “Son, the elixir pill you had sent back is simply amazing.
You know my talent is not as good as that of your uncles, and I’ve only beco Family Head due to my business acun.
I’ve been stuck at Transcendent Realm Level 2 for years, but after taking the elixir pill you sent back, I’ve broken through consecutively and now I’m at Transcendent Realm Level 4.
It’s truly like a divine pill!”
“I’m telling you, it’s rare to find soone who can refine this kind of elixir pill.
You must make sure you win him over for .
If we could get him to join the Xu family and continuously produce such pills for us, we’ll be able to cultivate a multitude of experts.
By then, no one in Jiangbei could rival the Xu family, not even the Han family would be able to look down on us.”
“This is a great opportunity for the Xu family to surpass the Han family.
Don’t ss this up for !”
After hearing Xu Yuan’s words, Xu Shaoming’s face showed a trace of embarrassnt.
He hadn’t expected Lu Chuan to have such high value and was montarily unsure how to respond.
“Son, did you hear what I said?” Xu Yuan asked when Xu Shaoming remained silent.
Xu Shaoming coughed twice and said, “Dad, actually that elixir pill…I snatched it, and I’ve just had a falling out with the guy who refined the pill.
That kid is quite strong, and I was hoping you could send soone to help take revenge.”
The other end of the phone was silent for several seconds.
Then ca a roar, “You good-for-nothing who causes more problems than you solve!
I’ve spoiled you all these years!
What else can you do besides causing trouble for ?
I really want to strangle you right now!”
Xu Shaoming quickly held the phone away from his ear, a bit aggrieved, “Dad, your son was just beaten into a pig’s head, and you don’t even comfort but instead scold like this.
Am I really your biological son?”
Xu Yuan, furious, retorted, “I’m scolding you because you’re not in front of .
If you were, I’d beat you to death myself!”
Xu Shaoming, knowing he had genuinely angered his father, shrank his neck guiltily and asked, “Dad, can we put aside the talk of hitting for a mont, and could you send a few experts to help get my revenge first?”
Xu Yuan bellowed, “To hell with your grandmother’s leg!
Get back here right now, or else don’t bla for disowning you as my son!”
…
The banquet ended.
Lu Chuan and Zhou Siming walked out, accompanied by Qi Zhenyun.
Qi Zhenyun reminded Lu Chuan, “Lu Chuan, although Xu Shaoming ultimately apologized, he doesn’t seem like the type to let things go.
You need to be extra careful these days.”
Lu Chuan smiled and said, “Rich tycoon Qi, there’s no need to worry too much.
The Xu family might be powerful but stretching their hands into Cloud City won’t be so easy.
I know my limits.”
As long as the people the Xu family sent to deal with him were still in the Transcendent Realm, even if they were at Transcendent Realm Level 9, Lu Chuan was confident he could kill them with a single strike thanks to the Sword Nourishing Gourd.
For a asly matter concerning Xu Shaoming, the Xu family certainly would not dispatch experts of that level; at most, they would send soone at Transcendent Realm Level 5 or 6.
Therefore, Lu Chuan wasn’t too worried.
Zhou Siming sighed and said, “It’s all my fault.
If I hadn’t shown off carelessly, none of this would have happened.”
Lu Chuan comforted him with a smile, “Old Zhou, you don’t need to bla yourself.
You did nothing wrong.
The fault lies with Xu Shaoming.
We can’t take the bla upon ourselves just because the Xu family is strong.”
Just then, one of Qi Zhenyun’s subordinates ca rushing over and said, “Boss, we just got news that young master Xu has bought a high-speed rail ticket back to the provincial city.
He’s already on the train.”
All three of them looked surprised.
“He’s leaving?
He’s actually going to let this go?
It doesn’t seem in character for him,” Qi Zhenyun said incredulously.
Lu Chuan said with a smile, “Maybe he got scared off.
It’s good that he’s gone; it saves the worry.”
Qi Zhenyun also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile to Lu Chuan, “Don’t worry; I’ll have soone keep an eye on the Xu family.
If Xu Shaoming makes any moves, we will notify you at once.”
Lu Chuan gave a salute, “Thank you very much, rich tycoon Qi.”
“By the way, do you know where I can find supre grade gemstones, specifically those that have exceptional qualities?”
Qi Zhenyun thought for a mont and replied, “Supre grade gemstones with unique qualities…now that you ntion it, I recall hearing soone ntion recently that the Han family in the provincial city has acquired a piece of Dragon Soul Jade.
It’s said that the jade has absorbed a trace of True Dragon Qi and is quite mystical.
If you listen closely to it, you can even faintly hear the sound of dragon’s roars—a rare treasure indeed.”
Lu Chuan’s eyes lit up, “Dragon Soul Jade, that really is a supre grade gemstone.”
Qi Zhenyun smiled and warned, “However, Lu Chuan, I must remind you that the Han family’s status in Jiangbei Province is by no ans weaker than the Xu family’s.
It won’t be easy to obtain this Dragon Soul Jade from them.”
Lu Chuan replied confidently, “Whether I can obtain it or not, I’ll only know after I try.”
The incident with Xu Shaoming reinforced Lu Chuan’s determination to refine the Azure Dragon Great Array Formation as soon as possible.
If the Hanging Gourd dical Hall were protected by the Azure Dragon Great Array Formation, Zhou Siming wouldn’t have been beaten when Xu Shaoming brought his bodyguards to the dical hall, and the Black Dragon Pill would not have been stolen.
So, he needed to find a suitable core for the formation as soon as possible.
“In that case, I might as well take a trip to the provincial city and, incidentally, collect the debt from the Xu family,” Lu Chuan thought to himself.
He didn’t linger any longer and went back to the Hanging Gourd dical Hall with Zhou Siming.
In the room…
Lu Chuan was muttering about the Han family of the provincial city when suddenly he rembered sothing and quickly took out the box left to him by his grandfather.
He opened the box, took out a stack of marriage contracts, and quickly pulled out one after flipping through them.
On that marriage contract, the bride’s na read “Han Qingci.”
After repeated verification, Lu Chuan finally confird that this Han Qingci was indeed the young miss of the Han family of the provincial city!
“Who would’ve thought that there is this connection between and the Han family.
I wonder if they would give that piece of Dragon Soul Jade in consideration of this marriage contract,” Lu Chuan said to himself with a smile.
After pondering for a while, he continued, “Since that’s the case, I’ll bring this marriage contract with to the provincial city.
If possible, I’ll cancel it to avoid delaying the young lady’s pri years.”
Having put away the marriage contract, Lu Chuan sat cross-legged on the bed, planning to cultivate.
Just at that mont, the swirl of Spiritual Energy in his Dantian suddenly began to spiral into chaos.
Streaks of dragon’s yang power appeared, causing turmoil in his Dantian.
It took a considerable effort for him to finally suppress these forces of dragon’s yang power.
“The dragon’s yang power shows signs of unrest again, what a big trouble,” Lu Chuan sighed helplessly.
…
In the yard…
Su Ming was practicing his martial arts skills.
Just then, Mu Nanqing walked by with a heavy heart.
Upon seeing her, Su Ming stopped and asked, “Sister-in-law, you seem to be troubled about sothing.”
Mu Nanqing hastily replied, “No…
not at all.”
Su Ming’s face showed a hint of gossip, and he quickly stepped nearer to Mu Nanqing, laughing as he said, “Don’t lie to , I am quite good at reading people.
You definitely have sothing on your mind, and if I am not mistaken, it’s about matters of the heart.”
Mu Nanqing beca noticeably flustered and retorted, “You…
don’t talk nonsense, what kind of romantic troubles could I have?”
However, after saying this, she pursed her lips and hesitated for a mont before asking Su Ming, “Su Ming, say hypothetically, if you liked soone but were hindered by various reasons from expressing it, and then you saw many excellent individuals of the opposite sex appearing around him and you didn’t have many advantages, what would you do?”
Su Ming, with a teasing smile, asked, “What do you think his attitude towards you is?”
Mu Nanqing pondered for a mont and replied, “I feel…
he probably has feelings for too.”
Laughing, Su Ming said, “If it were , I would choose to directly find a way to win him over.”
Mu Nanqing widened her eyes, “Directly win him over?”
Su Ming nodded, “Yes, just like the direct way you are thinking about.”
“As you said, he also has feelings for you, and it’s just that neither of you has pierced the veil.
At this ti, what you need to do is to pierce that veil.
Once pierced, even if he doesn’t like you, he will start to like you.”
Mu Nanqing stared blankly, “Really…
should I really do that?”
Su Ming said with certainty, “Of course, otherwise, if you just wait in anguish, wouldn’t you be giving the opportunity away to soone else?”
Mu Nanqing suddenly felt that Su Ming made a lot of sense.
With a mischievous smile, Su Ming asked, “Sister-in-law, when do you plan to pierce that veil?”
Mu Nanqing was about to reply, but then sothing occurred to her, and she blushed, saying, “Pah!
Pierce what veil, I was just hypothesizing, hypothetical, got it?”
Su Ming laughed out loud, “Got it, got it.”
Mu Nanqing glared at him and quickly ran off.
Watching Mu Nanqing’s retreating figure, Su Ming muttered to himself, “Big brother, for the sake of your happiness, this is as far as I can help.
You better thank later!”
…
The next morning…
While Zhou Siming was preparing dicine in the pharmacy, Mu Nanqing sneaked in and made sure to check that no one was following her.
Seeing Mu Nanqing coming in, Zhou Siming smiled and asked, “Nanqing, what brings you to the pharmacy?”
Mu Nanqing’s gaze darted around evasively, her face filled with guilt, as she asked, “Old Zhou, do you have any more Wound Healing Ointnt?”
Zhou Siming replied, “There is so, but Lu Chuan has said that this dicine can cause trouble if used improperly and insisted that we ask what it’s for before dispensing it.
What do you need Wound Healing Ointnt for?”
Mu Nanqing, clutching the hem of her clothes subconsciously and avoiding Zhou Siming’s gaze, said, “Oh, I accidentally cut my foot yesterday, and I’m afraid it’ll leave a scar, so I thought of using the Wound Healing Ointnt.”
