Chapter 1502 An Unscrupulous Woman
Chapter 1502 An Unscrupulous Woman
With a new goal in mind, Lu Chen was in high spirits. With a thought, he could take in everything in the entire Golden Pearl World.
The hundreds of cultivators captured from the Holy Sound Pavilion, under the leadership of Yun Tianqi, are still cultivating vigorously.
Each of them displayed their unique skills, and divine energy swirled around them like flowing ribbons of light, adding a touch of mystery to the space.
Seeing Yun Tianqi standing on high, his eyes sharp and his command decisive, with hundreds of cultivators cooperating seamlessly and displaying overwhelming momentum, Lu Chen felt very gratified and secretly decided that he must give them a chance to go out and have them put to actual combat.
Last time, Yun Tianqi asked Lu Chen for help in finding some female cultivators to balance Yin and Yang, but he was unable to do so for various reasons.
Lu Chen knew the importance of this matter, but seeing everyone so focused, he decided not to disturb them for the time being, so as not to affect the positive atmosphere.
As his gaze shifted, Lu Chen's eyes fell on Xiao Yao Ji.
She was helping Xiao Jinshen tend the medicinal herb garden. Under Xiao Jinshen's guidance, she carefully irrigated each herb with the gray substance to promote their rapid growth.
Her face radiated focus and contentment, as if she had completely adapted to life here and was getting along well with Xiao Jinshen and Xiao Qiu.
Seeing all this, Lu Chen smiled slightly, thinking that this little girl was quite clever and knew how to interact with people. Since she was doing well, Lu Chen didn't need to worry about her too much.
It's worth mentioning that Lu Chen has never figured out what the gray substance in the Golden Pearl World is, and the Chaos Dao Life Technique can't analyze it either. He only knows that this gray substance can promote plant growth.
Next, Lu Chen turned his gaze to the mysterious woman. Ever since he revived her using the Nine Luminaries Divine Spring, she had been in seclusion, not giving Lu Chen a chance to get close.
At this moment, the mysterious female cultivator was standing in front of the barrier formed by the gray matter, seemingly studying what the gray matter was.
Seeing that she had woken up, Lu Chen flashed and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
When he reappeared, he was already not far from the mysterious female nun.
Lu Chen stood there quietly, gazing at her serene and beautiful face and her slightly rising and falling chest, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this woman was truly beautiful.
At this moment, the woman slowly turned around, a hint of coldness in her eyes. Her gaze was as sharp as ice as she stared directly at Lu Chen.
"What's going on? Why is this woman so hostile towards me?"
The moment this thought crossed her mind, the woman suddenly attacked Lu Chen without hesitation. Her attack was as swift as lightning, and her divine energy fluctuations formed visible ripples in the air, rushing straight towards Lu Chen.
Lu Chen was startled, but then he realized from the fluctuations in the other party's divine essence that the woman was actually a powerful expert in the Dao Integration Realm.
No sooner said than done,
With a thought, Lu Chen raised his hand and waved it lightly. The movement seemed casual, but it actually contained the power of profound laws of the Great Dao.
That force acted like an invisible shield, easily deflecting the woman's attack. Even the ripples in the air seemed to be calmed down by this force, returning to stillness.
The woman was surprised to see this. She had thought Lu Chen only had the strength of the Transformation Realm, but she hadn't expected him to be able to withstand her attacks so easily.
Moreover, judging from the fluctuations of divine energy he felt during their fight, Lu Chen's strength was in no way inferior to his own.
"You..." The woman's voice trembled slightly, clearly finding the situation unbelievable, "How could you possibly possess such profound divine energy?"
Lu Chen smiled slightly, a confident glint in his eyes. This was the benefit of cultivating the Chaos Dao Life Technique. Not only was there no bottleneck to break through, but his divine essence was also incredibly abundant, allowing him to achieve leapfrog combat.
"Beautiful lady, what you're doing is a bit unfair, isn't it? Not to mention that I used my precious Nine Luminaries Divine Spring to save you..."
"Take the example of how you drained several of my divine veins after you woke up. Not only are you ungrateful, but you've also repaid kindness with enmity. That's a bit much."
Upon hearing this, the woman frowned slightly, her tone tinged with disdain and confidence as she said, "Even if you hadn't saved me, I could have been resurrected a thousand years later. All you've done is to satisfy your own selfish desires."
At this point, she couldn't help but recall Lu Chen's kiss on her earlier.
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen smiled faintly. "A thousand years? Do you know what will happen in a thousand years? You might think you can be resurrected automatically after a thousand years, but that's on the condition that you survive a thousand years safely."
A lot can happen in a thousand years. If I hadn't taken you away back then, that ruin would have been targeted by many cultivators.
I've heard that many cultivators commit all sorts of evil deeds to satisfy their selfish desires, not even sparing the dead, let alone someone as beautiful as you.
Do you still think that without me saving you, you'd still be standing here talking to me? The outcome would probably be far worse.
The woman fell silent for a moment upon hearing this, seemingly pondering Lu Chen's words. Her gaze gradually became complex, reflecting both memories of the past and an examination of the present.
Finally, she sighed and said, "So what do you want? You can name your terms, but don't go too far. Then we can wipe the slate clean and neither of us will owe the other anything, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen immediately perked up. A glint flashed in his eyes, followed by a playful smile. "Oh? You'll agree to any condition? Are you really sure?" His tone was provocative and mocking, clearly wanting to see how the other party would react.
Seeing the unfriendly look in Lu Chen's eyes, the woman felt a surge of anger. She was a proud person and would never tolerate being harassed, even when at a disadvantage. Hearing Lu Chen's words, she couldn't help but retort angrily:
"Hmph, if you have any impure intentions, I will not let you succeed even if it costs me my life. At worst, it will be a fight to the death, and no one will benefit from it." Her voice was full of determination, as if she was ready to strike again at any moment.
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen immediately dropped his joking tone and said seriously, "Miss, you've misunderstood again. Here, only the fish can die, but the net can never break. Never mind, I won't tease you anymore."
I just have a few questions I want to ask you, and after that, all our grudges can be wiped clean.
Hearing this, the woman, though still wary, softened her tone considerably. "Alright, then ask away."
She nodded, indicating that Lu Chen could begin asking questions...
