Long Chen was startled, barely able to react. He pulled his chest back and slammed his palm down ahead.
That person's strike was lightning-fast, and Long Chen's reaction was just as swift. With a powerful move and heavy force, the power gathered in his fist, and once triggered, it would be instantly released.
"Whew."
But Long Chen's punch actually hit nothing, missing the target's body, which startled Long Chen.
"Wow, such a quick reflex! Looks like you're not just good at bragging." Long Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw a beautiful woman smiling at him—she was a stranger.
Beside the woman stood another person—it was Bai Shishi. Long Chen frowned, but before he could speak, the woman smiled and said, "
Don't keep a stern face. It's our first meeting, let me introduce myself. My name is Lu Mingxuan, Shishi's cousin. I was just joking earlier, so you shouldn't be upset, right?"
What Long Chen didn't expect was that the beautiful woman before him was actually Bai Shishi's cousin. Long Chen was a bit speechless—Bai Shishi's cousin really had a mischievous personality.
"Be careful, she's from the Filth Clan." Bai Shishi reminded her.
"The Witch Clan?" Long Chen was taken aback.
"Oh dear, don't listen to her nonsense. Let me tell you, I'm your loyal admirer. After seeing your performance on the debate stage today, I admire you with utmost respect. To be honest, you're the most charismatic man I've ever met." Lu Mingxuan patted her chest and mouth, seemingly unconcerned. Her actions stirred up waves of emotion.
Long Chen was dumbfounded. This sister really lets loose, actually doing such a bold gesture.
"I asked my cousin to ask if you want my sister to come and serve you in bed." Lu Mingxuan's willow-leaf arched eyebrows trembled slightly, and he smiled charmingly.
"Cousin..." Bai Shishi couldn't take it anymore and couldn't help but complain.
"Alright, alright, just joking, does it really have to be so serious? I came to knock on your door, partly to see my idol for the first time, and partly because there are people outside looking for you. Everyone's time is precious, and we can't wait too long. Lu Mingxuan said.
Anyone else? Long Chen followed Bai Shishi and Lu Mingxuan to the reception room, where Luo Bing, Luo Ning, and Mu Qingyun were chatting with the two women.
When Long Chen arrived, the two women immediately stood up and bowed to him. Luo Bing hurriedly said, "
Long Chen, let me introduce you. These two are our Luo family's experts. This is Senior Sister Luo Xue, and this is Senior Sister Luo Qing."
What shocked Long Chen was that, although these two women deliberately concealed their aura, their eyes shone with a restrained divine light, faintly flowing with Daoist script. Standing there, it was as if they had merged with heaven and earth—both were formidable first-generation warriors.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Long Chen." Luo Xue and Luo Qing greeted Long Chen together. Their demeanor was noble and courteous, with a noble aura that made them look very pleasant.
"You're too polite, both senior sisters. Today I met the Luo family's masters, their demeanor dignified and graceful, like orchids in a refined room, refreshing and refreshing, fully displaying the demeanor of a distinguished master. I greet you both." Long Chen cupped his hands and smiled.
"Senior Brother Long Chen, you're too kind. You are a dragon among men. On the Dao Debate Platform, your skills surpass all others, sweeping through your peers. Your Daoist skills are profound and admirable. We sisters have always admired you greatly." Luo Xue smiled sweetly, speaking with utmost humility.
"Wow, you two like each other so much—why not just get married and have kids together, and work together on having children?" Seeing Long Chen so polite with Luo Xue and Luo Qing, Lu Mingxuan curled his lips and said.
"Senior Sister... Bai Shishi couldn't stand this cousin anymore, and her words were so blunt.
Long Chen was speechless too. This guy really knows how to let go. At this moment, he finally understood why Bai Shishi called her from the Filth Clan.
Luo Xue and Luo Qing were quite generous, knowing the other was joking, and kept smiling the whole time, making them seem approachable.
"Senior Brother Long Chen, I'm here to disturb you this time to report on the Chu family. The Chu family has sent four powerful figures, all first-generation experts, threatening to kill you on the arena.
Although Brother Long is exceptionally brave, the Chu family members are cunning and calculating, ruthless in pursuit of their goals, and their vicious tactics are endless, making it impossible to be cautious. Luo Xue said seriously.
Long Chen nodded and said, "Don't worry. The reason I've survived until today is mainly because I never underestimate any opponent." Long
Chen knew that he had probably gone too far at the Dao Debate Conference. Now that he had won the championship, Luo Xue was afraid he might get carried away by victory and accidentally cause a setback.
Long Chen's guess was indeed correct, because at the Dao Debate Conference, Long Chen acted too arrogantly and overwhelmingly, practically disregarding everyone and wishing he could turn the Nine Provinces upside down alone. Only then did Luo Xue and Luo Qing come to pay respects to Long Chen and also hope to remind him.
But after meeting Long Chen, their impression completely changed. Long Chen had always been courteous, without any trace of arrogance, and he didn't have the fierce aura expected of a Dao Debate Conference. He was like a completely different person.
"I wonder, is there any information about those four?" Long Chen asked.
Luo Xue shook her head and said, "I'm really sorry, these four people are very mysterious. There's no information about them in our records."
It must be the Chu family's secret weapon hidden away. Since we don't know what it is, we sense something is off. The Chu family seems to be even more secretive than we imagined.
The information currently held outside only knows that their names are Chu Ren, Chu Shuang, Chu Zhen, and Chu Gan. As for useful information, it is impossible to find at all, and it feels very ashamed. Long
Chen nodded and said, "I didn't expect the Chu family to actually have some skills. I really want to meet them for a while, hoping to draw lots to meet them."
However, for this Martial Arts Tournament, the subsequent parts will be managed by Huayun Trading Company, so they can't manipulate it anymore. From now on, it's just a matter of whether enemies are on a narrower path.
By the way, do you both have a place to stay? If you don't mind, you can move in and live together. It'll be more convenient for everyone to be together. "
Sorry to disturb you then." Luo Xue didn't refuse; since they were both cultivators, there was nothing inconvenient about it.
After the main discussion was over, the atmosphere became more relaxed. They became much more familiar with Luo Xue and Luo Qing, so they didn't need to hold back so much when talking.
Luo Xue spoke calmly and poisedly, mature and steady, with a distinguished demeanor, while Bai Shishi's cousin was somewhat speechless and often led people into a trap.
"Long Chen, someone as outstanding as you—do you believe in love at first sight, or do you believe in love over time?" Lu Mingxuan looked at Long Chen and said.
Long Chen hesitated for a moment, feeling there might not be any trap in that sentence, and then said, "I think it's better to fall in love over time." "
So it seems your love life is still a physical labor, huh?" Lu Mingxuan looked at Long Chen with a half-smile.
"Damn, isn't this way too filthy?" Realizing this, he couldn't help but be speechless.
With Lu Mingxuan, Luo Xue, and Luo Qing joining, the place became much livelier. Three days passed quickly. On this day, everyone gathered together, full of energy, because today was the first day of the martial arts tournament. Just thinking about competing against the prodigies of Jiuzhou made everyone's blood boil.
