"What keen perception, kid." As the voice carried through, an elderly crone slowly walked out from behind a tree.
Upon seeing the elder, Lin Chen's expression changed slightly.
Actually, Lin Chen hadn't sensed the elder's presence at all; it was his consciousness, Xiao Shuai, who reminded him.
Judging by the aura emanating from the elder, the opponent seed to be a high-level cultivator of the Divine Pulse realm, far surpassing him.
In fact, he had noticed this elder during the competition, but he didn't expect the elder to be waiting for him here.
"Senior, do you need sothing from ?" Lin Chen greeted with cupped hands and a polite smile.
The crone smiled faintly: "I am Qiu Yun, an elder of Shushan. I'm here to settle a score with you."
"Settle a score? Senior, you must be mistaken. I don't know you; how could we possibly have any scores to settle?"
Qiu Yun snorted coldly: "You should rember Li ng, shouldn't you!"
Lin Chen's gaze sharpened at the ntion of Li ng: "Of course, I rember him. I even treated him for his injuries. If you're here to thank , there's no need."
Elder Qiu Yun snorted coldly: "Thank ? You used such sneaky thods to launch a surprise attack on my grandson, causing his cultivation to be sealed. I'm here to take revenge today."
"Revenge? Old lady, at your age, you should speak with reason. Your grandson attempted to sneak attack
and failed. I was rely defending myself." Lin Chen replied icily.
"Hmph, regardless, you hard my grandson and for that, we need to settle this account properly," Elder Qiu Yun stated coldly.
As she spoke, a chill aura emanated from Elder Qiu Yun.
Feeling the montum from Elder Qiu Yun, Lin Chen couldn't help but frown slightly.
The two were vastly apart in terms of cultivation levels; each stage between the Yun Hai realm and the Divine Pulse realm was like a chasm. If they really ca to blows, Lin Chen knew that the odds were not in his favor.
"Elder Qiu, don't you find it shaful to pick on a child like , being a senior yourself?" Lin Chen said with a faint smile.
"Hmph, you injured my grandson, and you must pay the price," Qiu Yun retorted coldly.
Lin Chen nodded: "It seems this fight is inevitable, very well."
Saying this, Lin Chen took out his phone and aid it at Qiu Yun.
"What are you doing?" Qiu Yun's expression turned cold.
"Live streaming, haven't you heard of it? It's too bad to miss out on the fa from facing such a strong opponent without broadcasting it," Lin Chen said with a smile.
"Elder Qiu, why don't you share your pre-fight thoughts? This QQ Live broadcast is very popular; this video might be watched by tens of millions of people," Lin Chen said, smiling brightly.
"You, turn that thing off," Qiu Yun's complexion changed instantly.
After all, she was an elder of Shushan. She had intended to sneak attack Lin Chen; one reason was to avenge her grandson, and the other was to reinstate the position of Shushan's Wang Hao. But now, with the World Martial Arts Tournant about to start, if others found out she had made a move against a junior like Lin Chen, she would definitely face condemnation from the martial arts world.
"Elder Qiu, weren't you going to fight ? Co on then," Lin Chen said, all the while holding the video and smiling.
Qiu Yun looked frustrated, realizing she couldn't take her revenge. Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration: "Lin Chen, soone of my status wouldn't stoop to fighting you. I was just joking earlier."
"Oh, joking? You scared
to death. I really thought you wanted to kill ," Lin Chen said, laughing.
"Put away your phone, I have sothing to talk to you about," Qiu Yun said awkwardly.
Lin Chen smiled and put his phone in his pocket: "Anyway, many people have already seen that video clip. Elder Qiu, you better think thrice before making a move on ."
Qiu Yun snorted coldly and propped herself on her cane, "You're leading the Zhonghai won's basketball team to compete for the Life Flower, aren't you?"
Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, Elder Qiu, you're here for the sa reason, aren't you?"
"Correct, young man. You are indeed not weak, but you're still not qualified to compete for the Life Flower. I suggest you give up," Qiu Yun said arrogantly.
Elder Qiu, the Life Flower is crucial for my lover's awakening. Even if it seems impossible, I must give it my all," Lin Chen said earnestly.
"So you're planning to be an enemy of Shushan?" Qiu Yun snorted coldly.
Lin Chen smiled lightly, "I'm sorry, but if it was sothing else, maybe I could agree. But for this matter, not even the Sect Leader of Shushan could make
submit."
Elder Qiu Yun suddenly laughed, "Indeed a hero from among the young. Well, that's good. I hope we have the chance to et in the finals; I will personally lead my Shushan won's basketball team to defeat yours."
Lin Chen's eyes sparkled with a hint of mirth, "I'm afraid you won't get the chance, because the championship will belong to us."
"What an arrogant lad. But your next opponents are strong as well. Wait till you've passed their challenge before you boast to ," Qiu Yun sneered.
At that mont, Lin Chen's cellphone rang. He saw that it was a call from Li Moyu.
Lin Chen gestured a fist towards Elder Qiu Yun, "Elder Qiu, I have things to handle, and won't keep chatting with you. I'll take my leave now."
With that, Lin Chen tapped the ground, leaped onto the wall, and disappeared with a few bounds.
"Such a quick movent technique; this kid is indeed tough to deal with," Qiu Yun thought to herself with a sense of admiration.
Initially, she had thought she could easily crush Lin Chen, who was only at the Yunhai realm, with a single palm strike. However, she did not expect this cunning young man to use a live broadcast, making it difficult to kill him now.
Lin Chen arrived at the sports arena parking lot, where Li Moyu was anxiously waiting for him.
Seeing Lin Chen, Li Moyu hurriedly waved her hand, "Lin Chen, are you sure about this?"
Lin Chen smiled, "Why not? It's just attending a rich heir's party. I'm the best at swatting flies."
Li Moyu nodded, "Alright, Lin Chen, I'm really counting on you this ti to help
get rid of that bastard Zhao Jinlong."
Lin Chen made a reassuring gesture and got into Li Moyu's car.
No sooner had he boarded the car than Li Moyu's phone began to ring.
Li Moyu answered the call, and a middle-aged man's voice ca through, "Mo Yu, where are you? Why haven't you arrived yet?"
"I'm on the way, I'll be there soon," Li Moyu said.
"Hurry up. Young Master Zhao has already arrived. If another girl snatches him away, I'll break your legs."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Chen looked at Li Moyu with a speechless expression, "Is he really your father?"
Li Moyu sighed, "My dad wasn't like this before. Ever since he t my stepmother, he's changed so much that I don't even recognize him anymore."
Speaking, tears began to well up in the corners of Li Moyu's eyes.
In reality, the party was an arranged dating event for the rich heirs. Li Moyu's father hoped that she could establish a relationship with Zhao Jinlong at the party and then receive support from the Zhao family.
Lin Chen handed over a tissue to console her, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one can bully you."
The two arrived at the entrance of the Zhonghai Hotel; after getting out of the car, Lin Chen extended his hand, "Today, I am your escort, your Guardian God. No one can take you away from ."
