63: Chapter 63 Chern Long_1 63: Chapter 63 Chern Long_1 At ho.
Mu Nanqing had just completed her resignation process.
Lu Chuan told her about taking over the Hanging Gourd dical Hall.
Mu Nanqing was beaming with joy, “Xiaochuan’s dical skills are astounding; he will surely beco a household na as a Divine Doctor in Cloud City!”
Lu Chuan, with a thick skin, accepted the praise and said, “In a few days, once I get my dical practitioner’s license, we can open our dical hall.”
The two relished thoughts of a bright future together.
After discussing so details of opening the dical hall, Lu Chuan returned to his room.
He took out a fifty-year-old dicinal herb.
“After a passionate night with ngyao, my strength advanced to the peak of Qi Cultivation Level 5, and there’s already a faint trend of breaking through.
Why not give it a try now?”
Since he was just a hair’s breadth away from breaking through, Lu Chuan didn’t plan to refine an elixir pill; he directly swallowed the raw dicinal herb.
“This even saves so trouble.”
However, a long ti passed after consuming the dicinal herb, and there was still no reaction in his body.
“Indeed, it’s not as quick as taking an elixir pill.
I guess the effect won’t kick in until tonight.”
He sat cross-legged on the bed, cultivating and trying to catalyze the dicinal effect inside his body.
As evening ca,
Ning Xin suddenly called.
“Xiao Yun, that annoying fellow, wants to take to dinner tonight and insisted that I bring you along.
He said he has prepared a surprise for you, so co find quickly.”
Lu Chuan was puzzled, “He prepared a surprise for ?”
Ning Xin said, “Yes.
I asked him what the surprise was, but he wouldn’t tell, saying we’ll find out when we get there.”
Lu Chuan asked, “Can I not go?”
Ning Xin replied, “No!
Aren’t you curious about what surprise he ntioned?
If you don’t show up, I’ll go to your place right now!”
Lu Chuan sighed helplessly, thinking to himself that Xiao Yun had been locked up for half a month because of , what kind of surprise could he possibly have prepared?
It’s likely a shock instead of a surprise.
This Miss Ning’s curiosity sure is intense.
Not wanting Ning Xin to disrupt his ho, he reluctantly agreed, “Alright, where are you?
I’ll co to you.”
Half an hour later.
In front of the Cloud Sea Grand Hotel.
As soon as Lu Chuan exited his vehicle, he saw Ning Xin walking towards him, dressed in a low-cut top, a hip-hugging skirt, and high heels.
His gaze was imdiately drawn to Ning Xin’s ample bosom, about to burst forth, and he quickly called out, “Stop!
Don’t move!”
Ning Xin imdiately halted, her pretty face filled with confusion, “What’s wrong?”
Lu Chuan cleared his throat softly, “It’s swaying too much; I’m getting dizzy.”
Ning Xin glanced down and her face flushed with embarrassnt.
Then she reached out to hit Lu Chuan, “You pervert!”
Lu Chuan quickly dodged, “Why hit ?
I was just complinting you.”
Ning Xin huffed but her eyes betrayed a hint of happiness.
She spun around in front of Lu Chuan, “How is it?
Do I look good?”
Lu Chuan genuinely nodded, “Beautiful.”
Ning Xin took Lu Chuan’s arm, “Let’s go see what surprise Xiao Yun has prepared for you.”
Lu Chuan eyed Ning Xin suspiciously, wondering if she was really interested in the surprise Xiao Yun had ntioned.
Together, they entered the Cloud Sea Grand Hotel.
Many social elites were gathered there, and upon seeing Ning Xin, they all ca forward to greet her.
Even Qi Zhenyun, the wealthiest man, was among them.
After greeting Ning Xin, he leaned toward Lu Chuan and whispered, “Lu Chuan, you better leave quickly.
Xiao Yun is targeting you tonight.
If you leave late, sothing might happen.”
Lu Chuan smiled faintly, “It’s alright, I’m not afraid of him.”
Ning Xin, pretending not to hear, curled her lips slightly with mischief.
She certainly knew that Xiao Yun had no intention of preparing any surprises for Lu Chuan; this evening’s plot was definitely aid at Lu Chuan.
But she didn’t plan to get involved in this matter.
She considered Xiao Yun as a test for Lu Chuan.
If Lu Chuan could pass this test, then she would also have the courage to make so decisions.
Xiao Yun stood in a corner, seeing Ning Xin still clinging to Lu Chuan with a face full of jealousy.
He rubbed his face and squeezed out a smile, walking towards Ning Xin.
“Miss Ning, you look absolutely stunning today.
That dress suits you very well,” he said.
Ning Xin curled her lip, her face full of disdain, “It’s not like I wore it for you.”
Xiao Yun’s expression stiffened.
He took a deep breath, pretended not to care, and turned his head to look at Lu Chuan beside him, speaking coldly, “Kid, I didn’t expect you to actually have the guts to co!”
Lu Chuan laughed, “What’s there to be afraid of?
Didn’t you say you had a surprise for ?”
Xiao Yun smirked and clapped his hands imdiately.
A man with an indifferent expression and a restrained aura walked over.
“This man is nad Chern Long, a martial arts expert.
The principles of the Martial Path he follows dictate that life must be risked for life.
In his view, only through life-and-death battles can the true essence of the Martial Path be understood.
Hence, he travels everywhere, seeking experts for battles to the death.
All those whom he has challenged have died, and he has grown increasingly stronger.”
“He has heard about you representing Chen Family Martial Arts Hall and defeating Supre Path Martial Arts Hall, so he wants to challenge you to a life-and-death fight.”
“This is the surprise I’ve prepared for you, Lu Chuan.
You think you’re so capable, do you dare to accept Chern Long’s challenge?”
Lu Chuan took a careful look at this man nad Chern Long, realizing that he couldn’t make out the opponent’s level.
To get back at , Xiao Yun certainly wouldn’t seek an ordinary person; this Chern Long had to be extraordinary… Lu Chuan pondered in his heart and began to hesitate.
Seeing that Lu Chuan remained silent, Xiao Yun loudly said, “Why aren’t you saying anything?
Don’t tell you’re chickening out?”
Everyone around them started whispering to one another.
“It seems Lu Chuan isn’t as bold as we thought.
He dares not accept a life-and-death fight.”
“Didn’t he dare to accept Cao Xiong’s challenge before?
Why is he chickening out now?
With such a lack of courage, he’s not worthy of Miss Ning.”
…
Xiao Yun revealed a smug smile on his face.
If Lu Chuan were to fight today, he would surely die; and if he dared not fight, he would be branded a coward.
This was precisely the reason he invited the notable figures here.
Once Lu Chuan got labeled a coward, Ning Xin would surely lose interest in him, and that would give him a chance to take his place.
To force Lu Chuan to make a choice, Xiao Yun continued, “How about this?
Today, if you dare to accept Chern Long’s challenge, I will stop pursuing Miss Ning from now on.
I will stay far away from her.
But if you dare not agree, then renounce Miss Ning here in front of everyone and promise that you will never go after her again!”
“Do you dare?”
Lu Chuan looked at Xiao Yun’s confident deanor, deducing that the strength of this Chern Long must be unusual; otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to be so arrogant.
Even with the Purple Cloud Pearl in hand, he was not afraid of a Grade 9 Grandmaster, but if he used the Purple Cloud Pearl again in front of all these people, they would certainly realize that Cao Xiong’s death was no accident.
Then, countless strong figures might co to force out of him how he managed it.
Long Tianya might beco so furious that he would lash out with deadly force.
This was not a wise choice.
Moreover, his relationship with Ning Xin was rely a pretense; even if he did not accept the challenge, he would lose nothing but suffer so ridicule.
Compared to life, a few taunts amounted to nothing.
In the days gone by, he had grown accustod to being mocked.
Lu Chuan looked over at Ning Xin and was surprised to find her eyes filled with anticipation.
At that mont, Chern Long stepped forward, staring at Lu Chuan and scolding, “You coward!
Don’t you dare to accept the challenge?”
Lu Chuan was unconcerned and prepared to refuse.
Just then, Ning Xin, fuming, uttered, “Who says he doesn’t dare to accept the challenge?
I accept on his behalf.
Just wait to be beaten to a pulp!”
