89: Chapter 89 Let’s Elope!_1 89: Chapter 89 Let’s Elope!_1 On the way back.
Lu Chuan’s expression was icy, his eyes more resolute than ever before.
He frantically absorbed the nature’s spiritual energy around him with the help of the Purple Cloud Pearl.
After a long while, he shook his head in dissatisfaction.
“Too slow!”
“Relying solely on absorbing spiritual energy to increase strength is too slow!”
“I must find a way to boost my strength in a short amount of ti.
Only then can I kill Long Tianya and avenge my mother!”
Even though the Purple Cloud Pearl had the effect of Gathering Spirit, Lu Chuan was anxious for revenge.
rely absorbing spiritual energy obviously wasn’t satisfying him.
“It looks like I’ll have to find out where I can get my hands on a hundred-year dicinal herb.”
He made his plans internally and hurriedly made his way to the Hanging Gourd dical Hall.
At that mont, his phone rang.
It was a call from Chu ngyao.
“et at the airport.”
Lu Chuan looked confused, “Where are you going?”
“We’ll talk when you get here.
Just hurry up and don’t dawdle,” Chu ngyao said, sounding a bit impatient.
Lu Chuan had no choice but to agree.
He walked to the roadside, hailed a taxi, and rushed to the airport.
Upon entering the airport lobby, Lu Chuan saw Chu ngyao sitting low-key in the front row of seats in a brown trench coat with sunglasses on, with two luggage cases next to her.
He walked up to her with a smile and asked, “Are you going on a business trip?”
Chu ngyao lifted her head to glance at Lu Chuan, then turned to look around and pulled Lu Chuan to a secluded corner.
Seeing her act this way, Lu Chuan joked, “Why are you acting so sneaky?
Could it be you’ve done sothing shady?”
“Jerk!” Chu ngyao pinched Lu Chuan furiously.
Lu Chuan grimaced in pain and quickly said, “Stop, stop, stop!
It’s just a joke, why you gotta be so rough!”
Chu ngyao then let go of his arm.
Lu Chuan rubbed his arm, eyeing Chu ngyao’s delicate face, and asked, “What did you call here for?”
Chu ngyao hesitated but mustered up the courage to say, “Let’s elope!”
Lu Chuan’s eyes widened, “What did you say???”
Chu ngyao’s face turned a bashful red as she complained, “Wasn’t I clear enough?”
Lu Chuan looked at Chu ngyao in utter amazent, “Miss, you didn’t call here just to joke with , did you?”
Chu ngyao was sowhat anxious, “Who’s joking with you?
I’m serious!”
After pausing for a few seconds, she continued, “You…
you’re willing to confront the Long family for , and I’m touched, but you trying to take on the Long family alone will lead you to a dead end.”
“Although in my heart you’re soone who’s lecherous and rude, so of your actions have been quite satisfying.”
“And since you’ve taken advantage of , given how sincere you’ve been towards , I’m not completely opposed to being with you.”
“But I’m already engaged to Long Hao, and getting out of this engagent is as hard as reaching heaven, so if you want to be with , there’s only one way – to elope.”
“We’ll find a small town where no one can find us to settle down.
As long as you treat well, I…
I can spend my life with you, and even…
even bear your children!”
Afterwards, Chu ngyao shyly lowered her head.
Lu Chuan was dumbfounded, unable to believe that Chu ngyao was willing to throw caution to the wind and elope with him.
The two fell silent for a while before Lu Chuan sighed, “I can’t go with you.”
Chu ngyao’s eyes snapped up.
“Why?
Were all the things you said to before lies?”
Lu Chuan shook his head.
“It’s precisely because everything I told you is true that I can’t leave.”
“I’m honored that you’re willing to elope with , but have you considered the situation the Chu family will be in if you leave?”
“Do you think Long Tianya would spare your parents?”
Chu ngyao’s expression faltered, and then she said sowhat irritably, “I…
I didn’t think that much.”
“Even if I weren’t considering the Chu family, I still couldn’t go with you,” Lu Chuan spoke solemnly.
“I must kill Long Tianya!”
Ever since finding out that Long Tianya was the murderer of his mother, Lu Chuan had determined to clash with Long Tianya to the end.
Chu ngyao said angrily, “Can’t you stop being so naïve?
In Cloud City, nobody can stand against Long Tianya!”
Lu Chuan declared earnestly, “That was the past.
Long Tianya will certainly die by my hand!”
Chu ngyao sighed helplessly.
“You really are a fool…”
Lu Chuan teased by lifting Chu ngyao’s chin and asked, “Speaking of which, since you’re willing to elope with , doesn’t that an you’ve already accepted in your heart?”
Chu ngyao slapped his hand away, saying with a guilty conscience, “Stop being so narcissistic.
I just felt sorry for you and wanted to save your life, that’s all.”
Lu Chuan smiled slightly and didn’t continue the topic.
Instead, he said, “Don’t worry.
The path I’m on now, even a hundred Long Tianyas wouldn’t be worth a second glance.
I just need a bit more ti, that’s all.”
“By the way, do you know where I can buy hundred-year dicinal herbs?”
Chu ngyao looked at Lu Chuan huffily.
She never imagined that the first ti she decided to elope with soone, she would be rejected.
She didn’t want to deal with Lu Chuan at all now.
But after being angry for a while, she still spoke quietly, “In half a month’s ti, there will be a grand auction in Tianhai City.
It’s said that hundred-year dicinal herbs will be available.
You might want to check it out.”
Lu Chuan gave Chu ngyao a grateful bow.
“You’re still the one who’s good to .
As a reward, how about I offer myself to you again?”
“Get lost!!!”
Hanging Gourd dical Hall.
Lu Chuan was searching the internet for information about the Tianhai City auction.
“This auction actually requires a special invite to attend.
Money isn’t a problem for , but where am I supposed to get this invitation?” Lu Chuan scratched his head, finding this matter to be quite troubleso.
Since this auction was of a high standard, to prevent those without real capabilities from causing trouble by pretending to be sothing they were not, the organizers adopted an invitation-only auction format.
Only those who received an invitation had the right to participate in the auction.
Moreover, the auction tickets weren’t sothing money could buy; they had to be obtained through connections.
In other words, if a person had only money but no connections, they were not eligible to participate in such a high-level auction.
In the eyes of successful individuals, both money and connections are indispensable standards for success.
Connections represent a person’s social status; having money but no connections would simply categorize soone as a nouveau riche.
“Qi Zhenyun is the richest man in Cloud City with extensive connections.
He should have a way to get tickets to this auction.
I should go ask him later.”
Lu Chuan made up his mind and prepared to sit down and cultivate.
Just then, he received a ssage from Yu Xin.
“Long ti no see, I’ve turned over a new leaf.
Do you have ti tonight?
I’d like to buy you dinner.”
Lu Chuan frowned at the ssage.
What mischief is this woman up to now?
