Chapter 1375: Chapter 1375
"A Shi? What brings you here?" Lin Chen asked.
A Shi smiled faintly, "Why, are you not happy to see me?" Fresh chapters posted on novel(ꜰ)ire.net
Lin Chen shook his head, "Who said that, who wouldn't want to see a beauty?"
A Shi looked at Lin Chen and said, "Your mouth is still so sweet. I didn't expect your strength to improve so quickly in such a short time."
Lin Chen was also a bit shocked looking at A Shi, "Not really, your strength has also improved terribly fast!"
"I came to tell you something important, don't go to the World Martial Arts Conference," A Shi said directly.
"Why?" Lin Chen looked at A Shi in confusion.
A Shi's eyes held a solemnity, "Because it's very dangerous there, you might die."
"Dangerous?" Lin Chen's eyes narrowed.
"I can't tell you the specific reason, just make sure you don't go," A Shi advised.
Lin Chen wanted to say something more, but suddenly a voice from the Fourth Prince came from the void.
"A Shi, enough with saying things you shouldn't. Do you want to be punished by father?"
Upon hearing that voice, A Shi's eyes narrowed, and she looked at Lin Chen with a lingering glance, "Remember what I said, don't go."
With those words, A Shi's body flickered, and she leapt onto the wall, disappearing into the darkness.
Lin Chen watched A Shi's disappearing figure, a look of solemnity on his face.
He knew that the reason A Shi was stopping him was because there were significant risks at the World Martial Arts Conference. Otherwise, she wouldn't risk being punished by her father to disclose the message to him.
Still, this only piqued Lin Chen's curiosity about the World Martial Arts Conference further. According to Zhang Yu's introduction, the world's five major superpower organizations would all be attending, and logically, no one would dare to pull anything at such an event.
After all, offending the five major superpower organizations at the same time, no one in the world would do something so foolish.
But then, why was there danger?
However, thinking of Zhao Xiaohua, Lin Chen's determination was firm; he had to make this trip to M Country.
Lin Chen returned to the Western City and gave the antidote to Qiao Xue.
Soon, Qiao Xue woke up.
Upon waking, Qiao Xue threw herself into Lin Chen's arms.
"Lin Chen, I thought I would never see you again."
Lin Chen patted Qiao Xue's shoulder, "Silly girl, it's my fault for not protecting you well."
In the Western City, Lin Chen stayed for three more days. Qiao Xue, Xin Xiaoqi, Xiao Yushan, and Jin Bingbing were all reluctant to part with Lin Chen.
However, Lin Chen had to leave because the time agreed with Zhang Yu was drawing near, and Lin Chen was also concerned about his mother in the Capital City.
Lin Chen left without notifying anyone and booked a flight back to the Capital City himself.
The reason he did this was that he didn't want the farewell to be too emotional.
The girls he met in the Western City were all good girls, and Lin Chen didn't want his departure to make them sad.
Meanwhile, in a private hospital in the Capital City, Xu Meng lay in bed, wrapped in bandages, a resentful look in his eyes.
Xu Meng had just woken up and dialed a phone number, "Brother, you must avenge me!"
"What happened?" a cold voice came through the phone.
"Brother, I've been crippled. All my bones have been broken, and now I can only lie in bed. The doctor says I'll have to live like a vegetable for the rest of my life. I'm done for. Brother, you have to avenge me, tear that bastard to pieces," Xu Meng cried, tears and snot streaming down.
"Who could be so cruel?" the voice on the phone sounded icily.
"It's Lin Chen, that bastard did it," Xu Meng said through gritted teeth.
"Lin Chen? I've been looking for him. Rest assured, I've learned that this kid has returned to the Capital City. I'll avenge you," the voice on the phone said coldly.
After hanging up, Xu Meng's face showed a cold expression, "Lin Chen, with my brother taking action, you're dead."
"Young Master Xu, who is your brother? Can he be Lin Chen's opponent?" a young nobleman dressed in international brands curiously asked.
"My brother, Xu Shaojie, is the number one genius of the Mount Hua sect in hundreds of years, and he's also one of the top three on the Qing List of China."
"Xu Shaojie? The acclaimed genius from Mount Hua? Great, with him here, Lin Chen is dead for sure," the young nobleman's face broke into a sinister smile.
Mount Hua is one of the five major hidden sects in China, with a status even surpassing that of the Medicine Sect.
And Xu Shaojie, known as the greatest genius of Mount Hua in a century, had trained there since childhood, his ranking consistently in the top three of the Qing List.
It was said that Xu Shaojie's cultivation had reached the peak of the Demigod Realm, just one step away from the God Realm.
Having such formidable cultivation at his age was a testament to his terrifying talent.
Xu Meng nodded, "With my brother here, Lin Chen is doomed. He destroyed me, and I want him torn to pieces."
In a teahouse in the Capital City, a young man hung up the phone, holding a cup of tea.
The tea, perhaps left out for too long, had grown a bit cold.
But a stream of Qi flowed from the young man's hand into the tea.
Suddenly, the tea, which had no heat, emitted a delicate blue smoke, exuding an enticing aroma.
Xu Shaojie gently sipped the tea, looking at the photo of Lin Chen on his phone, a hint of coldness in his eyes, "Lin Chen, what has given you the right to represent the younger generation of China at the World Martial Arts Conference?"
In Xu Shaojie's heart, only he had the right to represent the younger martial generation of China.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Sanfeng, that old guy, had chosen the unremarkable Lin Chen to accompany him to the martial arts conference.
This made Xu Shaojie extremely resentful, as he considered himself the number one among the younger generation, while Lin Chen was just a clown.
This time, his trip to the Capital City was for the purpose of challenging Lin Chen. Coincidentally, his brother Xu Meng had just been crippled by Lin Chen.
With new and old grudges combined, Xu Shaojie had already sentenced Lin Chen to death in his heart.
Xu Shaojie picked up a pen and paper and wrote a challenge letter, handing it to a young man beside him.
"Take this challenge letter to Lin Chen. Tomorrow at 9 am, I will challenge Lin Chen at Ten Thousand Swords Manor."
"Yes!" The man respectfully accepted the challenge letter and turned to leave.
As Lin Chen disembarked from the plane, he saw Xue Ying, Zhao Xiaowen, Qin Lan, and Tang Bao'er waiting at the exit.
Seeing the beautiful figures of the four girls made Lin Chen feel immensely at ease, and he couldn't help but smile faintly.
However, at this moment, the four beautiful women had already attracted the attention of many men.
"I wonder which rich young master has returned to the Capital, to have so many beauties picking him up."
"Yeah, if even one of them was here to pick me up, my life would have been worth it."
Everyone craned their necks, eager to see what kind of man could attract four beauties to meet him at the airport.
But when they saw a young man dressed in market stall clothes waving at the four beauties, many people widened their eyes in shock.
Damn, shouldn't the one paired with such four beauties be a young master dressed in international brands? Why is it a guy dressed in low-cost market clothes!
