After agreeing, Zhuxin directly asked people to go to Ksitigarbha Academy to invite Lu Chen and asked him to come here after the competition.
However, what she didn't expect was that the wait did not last long. About half an hour later, a guard came to report.
Lu Chen has arrived.
Zhuxin nodded and asked the guards to welcome Lu Chen in.
…
The moment Lu Chen walked into the main hall of Sun Yao Tavern, he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere here.
With a glance, Lu Chen first saw the two girls Zhuqing and Zhuxin, and then his eyes stopped on the three figures standing aside.
Two old men and one young man.
When the two old men saw Lu Chen, they were a little surprised and a little disdainful.
A young man with a feminine face and eyes as cold as a snake.
It looks like - they all deserve a beating.
It seems that there is a reason why I met the two people who went to invite me on the road. Something is going to happen today.
"Miss, Sixth Elder, is this the better candidate you said? He seems too young." The two old men glanced at Lu Chen casually and said calmly.
"Brother Lu Chen, these two are stewards of our Zhu family. This one is the young master from Xiyan City next door, and Zhang Fan's eldest cousin, Zhang Yu." Zhu Qing introduced with a smile as she raised her hand lightly.
As soon as Zhuqing finished speaking, Zhang Yu stood up, approached Lu Chen, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I am Zhang Yu, a member of the Zhang family in Xiyan City. This friend looks very nice. I guess he is not from Buluocheng or Xiyancheng."
People, right?"
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows, but before he could answer, Zhang Yu's cold voice, as thin as a mosquito's fly, came into his ears: "I don't care where you come from, where you come from, you go away.
Go and tell the eldest lady that you give up voluntarily, and I will give you a satisfactory reward. If not, you should be more careful in Buluo City or Xiyan City or even the entire Dongjing City."
Crazy and confused. Looking at Senran's face, Lu Chenli looked at Zhuqing without paying attention and said: "Zhuqing, I have something to discuss with you. Is it convenient now?"
Seeing Lu Chen actually ignore him, Zhang Yu was stunned for a moment, and then a ferocious look filled his eyes.
"Boy, if we want to discuss the matter of the forest treasure, I can do it here. You are not qualified to do anything else." An old man said lightly mockingly.
Lu Chen touched his nose and ignored him.
He just asked: "How about I go out and wait for a while, and we can discuss it after you finish your work?"
"Miss, this matter is very important to our Zhu family. If this person is really a better candidate than me as you said, then I will give up on my own initiative." Zhang Yu turned around, with a look of ferociousness on his face.
After disappearing, he looked at Zhuqing and said respectfully, "If not, I will never be willing to accept it."
"What do you want?" Zhuqing asked with a frown.
"Haha, we will know who is the best candidate after a fight." Another old man took a sip of hot tea and said with a smile.
"you!"
After hearing this, Zhu Qingliu's eyebrows slightly raised, but her beautiful eyes suddenly looked at Lu Chen.
"Wait, let me ask first, what are you talking about?" Lu Chen said calmly to the beautiful eyes he looked at.
In fact, Lu Chen didn't understand when he first came in, but when he heard the words "Forest Treasure", Lu Chen understood it. But he didn't want to just compete like this. Who are they? They just competed.
?
"That's right." Zhu Xin said with a smile in her eyes, "These three people just came back last night. They heard about the 'Classical Tomb' and wanted to participate. However, according to the three rules set by the family,
We have already selected ten people and cannot change them. They are obviously not convinced and want to replace you."
After hearing this, Lu Chen frowned, but he didn't expect that Mr. Zhu acted so fast.
Before Lu Chen could say anything more, a powerful wave of demonic energy struck over.
Almost instantly, the powerful demonic energy surged out of Zhang Yu's body. Immediately, he turned back and punched Lu Chen in the chest as fast as lightning. The posture did not give the latter any reaction.
time.
"Shameless!" Zhu Xin's pretty face suddenly turned cold when she saw Zhang Yu making a sneak attack.
However, faced with such a ferocious attack that caught people off guard, Lu Chen's face remained extremely calm, and he remained motionless and allowed the fierce wind to hit him.
"Bang!"
Just when Zhang Yu's fist blocked half a foot in front of Lu Chen, the fist suddenly stopped.
A thick demonic barrier appeared in front of Lu Chen at some point.
"How is that possible?"
He was actually blocked and couldn't penetrate, which made Zhang Yu slightly shocked. He was at the level of the Demon King's Great Perfection!
Forget it, he only used six levels of strength this time anyway.
But immediately his eyes turned cold, and a more powerful wave of demonic energy suddenly surged out!
"The Great Perfection Realm of the Demon King!"
Sensing the tyranny of Zhang Yu's wave, Zhuqing and Na Zhuxin's pretty faces changed slightly. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yu had already broken through to the realm of the Demon King's Great Perfection!
The sudden surge of magic energy caused Zhang Yu to smash the wall of magic energy into pieces with one punch.
Immediately afterwards, a cold light flashed from his sleeve, and a small and sharp seventh-grade dagger slipped quietly into his hand, and then slashed fiercely towards Lu Chen's throat.
Lu Chen didn't have any intention of entangled with him. He suddenly took a step forward, and an unusually powerful demonic soul force surged out, like a wave, and slammed into Zhang Yu's body, which was wrapped in powerful demonic energy.
above.
"Pfft!"
Facing the impact of Lu Chen's unparalleled demonic soul power, Zhang Yu felt that the entire demonic soul was about to shatter. The demonic energy defense on his body was completely useless, and a sharp pain spread from his head.
Come.
And his body was shot backwards as if hit by a heavy hammer, hitting the wall of the hall heavily, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
From the beginning to the end, Lu Chen just took that step and didn't take any action at all.
A crisp and clear discussion.
Looking at the young man in the hall, Zhuxin's beautiful eyes flashed and she said softly: "This guy, I say he can do it."
As she spoke, she put down her right hand, which had been running her demonic energy, ready to step forward to rescue at any time.
The battle started unexpectedly and ended unexpectedly by many people present.
Looking at Zhang Yu who was sliding down the wall in embarrassment, the two old stewards of the Zhu family also looked stunned.
This is the realm of the Demon King, or the realm of the Demon King’s Great Perfection!
He actually defeated the enemy with one move!
After the shock, the two people's expressions became slightly ugly. Just now they were saying that Zhang Yu was very capable, but they didn't expect this to be the result.
"Haha, two steward uncles, my choice should be right, right?"
Zhuqing covered her mouth and smiled, and gave Lu Chen a strange look with her beautiful eyes.
The two old stewards laughed dryly, nodded, and said: "The eldest lady's eyesight is indeed very good, I admire it..."
Seeing that these two old guys finally stopped entangled, Zhuxin on the side breathed a sigh of relief.
However, she hadn't completely relaxed yet. She glanced at the corner, and immediately her pretty face changed slightly, and she shouted hurriedly: "Zhang Yu, what are you doing!"
"Go to hell!"
Just as Zhu Xin's shout fell, Zhang Yu, who had a gloomy look on his face, shot out suddenly. A sharp dagger appeared in his hand, filled with demonic energy, and attacked Lu Chen cunningly and cruelly.
Stab away.
Lu Chen frowned when he saw this guy stalking him. He was about to take action, but suddenly his eyes flashed.
A graceful and delicate body as beautiful as an immortal appeared in front of him. She raised her jade hand lightly and a stream of demonic energy swept out like a strong wind, knocking Zhang Yu off his feet several times.
"There is such a big difference between the Half-Step Tribulation Realm and the Demon King's Perfection!"
Looking at Zhu Qing who appeared in front of him, Lu Chen was slightly startled and looked at the former's figure with a strange look: "As expected of the elder of the Zhu family."
"Zhang Yu, this is my Zhu family, not your Zhang family. Now Lu Chen is a distinguished guest of the Zhu family. I hope you can respect me a little more!" Zhu Qing frowned, and in the soft voice that was originally like a spring breeze,
, there is also a hint of coldness.
"You go back, I will tell my father what happened today."
Hearing Zhuqing's intimidating words, Zhang Yu's face turned livid.
However, he was resentful in his heart, but he didn't have the courage to be arrogant to this young lady. He gave Lu Chen a vicious look and said in his heart: Just wait for me!
Then he left in embarrassment.
"What a lunatic." Lu Chen shook his head, and then said to Zhuqing: "I came to you to discuss something."
"Okay." Zhuqing nodded, and then said directly to the two stewards, "Two old stewards, it's getting late, please go and have a rest early."
Hearing this, the two old men could only nod their heads angrily, stood up and left.
"Hmph, these two old guys have always been connected with the Zhang family." Looking at the retreating figures of the two old men, Zhu Xin also hummed.
"The Zhang family is just a wallflower. On the surface, they are close to my Zhu family, but secretly they also have a lot of interactions with the Zhu family of the orc clan and the plant clan. How can we fulfill their wishes?"
Speaking of this, Zhuxin's beautiful eyes suddenly looked at Lu Chen aside, and said with a meaningful smile: "Lu Chen, let me tell you, you have hidden a lot of skills."
"Hehe, it's just a way to save your life." Lu Chen laughed dryly and said.
"Okay, they're out. If you need anything, just tell me." Zhu Xin glanced at Lu Chen and sat down directly.
Lu Chen rubbed his hands and sat down, and said straight to the point: "Our dean also knows the news about the Tomb of Classics. Master Chu Yu said that the college will send students to participate in this treasure hunt after the competition."
"What?" Zhuqing was shocked, "The dean of Ksitigarbha Academy also knows?"
"Yeah." Lu Chen nodded, "I don't know how they knew it. I think since the dean knew it, I told the master that he also knew it. He asked me to ask here, okay?
If so, it would be best if the Zhu family and the academy can join forces, so that the chances of winning will be greater."
"Is that so?" Zhuxin frowned, "This means that the news leaked very quickly. Maybe Buluocheng and even other nearby cities will know the news soon."
"Yes, there is no guarantee that Zhang Yu will not tell his family."
Zhuqing nodded.
"Now that we know everything, this is a good idea." Zhu Xin said, "There are dangers everywhere in the forest. It is better to unite with Ksitigarbha Academy than to fight separately."
Zhuqing nodded, then stood up: "Well, I'm going to tell my father right now. Brother Lu Chen, please wait."
Lu Chen nodded and waited for a moment with Zhu Xin. Zhu Qing came over excitedly: "Brother Lu Chen, my father agreed to this!"
"Father is currently discussing matters with the Haiyuan Chamber of Commerce. Let me tell you first. Let's see when you are free and make an appointment to discuss it together!"
Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's do it the day after tomorrow. I'll call the dean together then."
"Okay, Brother Lu Chen." Zhuqing's eyes were full of stars, "We will send you an invitation tomorrow!"
