Chapter six hundred and ninety third: learned the reason
Chapter 693: Learn the reason
"Miss Lingshuang, I would like to take the liberty to tell you, should you tell me the matter now?"
After Lu Chen had been listening for so long, he felt that he finally heard something related to him, so he asked immediately. It didn't feel good to be kept in the dark by Huo Lingshuang.
As soon as these words came out, not only Huo Fentian and others were puzzled, but even Yan Zun was puzzled and asked: "Little friend Lu Chen, hasn't my daughter told you the matter yet?"
"I hope that's not the case, kid," Lu Chen said with a bitter smile.
"Lingshuang, you went too far this time."
Yan Zun's face looked as usual when he heard this, but the look he looked at Huo Lingshuang showed a kind of majesty.
Even though Yan Zun was his father, Huo Lingshuang was frightened at this moment, his pretty face turned pale, he glared at Lu Chen fiercely, and then said softly and weakly, as if he was about to cry: "Father, I forgot
Already."
"Forgot?"
Yan Zun was stunned when he heard this excuse; Huo Fentian glanced at Lu Chen sympathetically; as for the three Huo Rong people, if it weren't for Yan Zun's face, they would have laughed out loud.
Lu Chen almost yelled. The woman was still talking just now, but now she said she had forgotten. This was really forgetful. He stared at Huo Lingshuang and gritted his teeth and said, "Miss Lingshuang can say it now."
Huo Lingshuang glanced at Lu Chen and snorted, looking very unhappy.
Seeing this, Yan Zun couldn't really scold his beloved daughter. He immediately coughed twice and said a little apologetically: "Ahem, little friend Lu Chen, since you don't know yet, I will tell you the matter on my behalf.
Just give it a try."
"Thank you, Lord Yan." Lu Chen said seriously.
"Here's the thing."
Yan Zun slowly told the story. After Lu Chen heard it, he understood.
Among the eight ancient tribes, there are several women of the same age as Huo Lingshuang. They are Huo Lingshuang from the Fire tribe, Tian Linger from the Heaven tribe, Lingxian from the Spirit tribe, Xue Mingyue from the Blood tribe, and Yu Feiyan from the Jade tribe.
, and the person Lu Chen loves deeply, Gui Yaoer from the ghost tribe.
Originally, they had the same noble background and should be able to become good friends, but the fact is exactly the opposite. Instead of becoming friends, they became rivals.
From the beginning of their training, they made an agreement with each other to compete every other year;
In the beginning, the gap between the few people was not big, and there were wins and losses. But after a few years, the talent in cultivation began to show up. In the end, the winners were always Tian Ling'er of the Celestial Clan, the leader of the Spirit Clan, and the Blood Clan.
The Three Daughters of the Blood Moon.
As for the three girls Huo Lingshuang, Yu Feiyan, and Gui Yaoer, they have never been able to compete with the top three. Especially Huo Lingshuang, who is at the bottom every time.
With Huo Lingshuang's character, there is no way she would be willing to do so. She prides herself on being smart. Just two years ago, she came up with a way to hire a helper to compete with herself.
In order to achieve this goal, she also lobbied Yu Feiyan, the two daughters of Gui Yao'er and Xue Mingyue of the Blood Clan, and forced Tian Ling'er of the Celestial Clan and Lingxian of the Spirit Clan to agree to this method with a winning rate of four to two.
But the helper we agreed to hire must be a warrior of the same age and level!
Huo Lingshuang was happy about this for a long time, but what she didn't expect was that even if she hired help, she would not be able to defeat the opponents of Tian Ling'er, Lingxian, Xue Mingyue and the girls, and she still could not get rid of the last one.
fate.
If this is still the case this year, she will be ranked first for three consecutive years;
Of course, the last one!
How can the arrogant Huo Lingshuang accept this?
For this reason, she couldn't find a helper in her own clan, so she began to set her sights on Zhongzhou. At that time, Lu Chen happened to kill Long Xiao, Zhao Zichuan, and Lin Wanfeng, and they were in the limelight, so the Fire Spirit Twins
Aiming at Lu Chen.
She was lucky enough to meet Lu Chen who was buying medicine in Qingyi City, so she approached him. As for her initial words about being attracted by Dan Jie, they were all lies to deceive Lu Chen.
After knowing the whole story, Lu Chen almost wanted to yell at the woman and asked him to help her. Wasn't it right to do something right with Yao'er?
Lu Chen was unwilling to do so.
Huo Lingshuang seemed to see Lu Chen's thoughts, stared at him with beautiful eyes, and hummed: "If you don't help me, you won't be able to see Guiyao'er."
When Lu Chen heard these threatening words, he almost wanted to get up and slap this woman on the butt. But thinking that he could only see Yao'er by helping her, he had no choice but to agree: "Don't worry, since I promised you,
I won’t regret it.”
"This is the best, but you won't let the competition go, right?" Huo Lingshuang nodded, but suddenly stared at Lu Chen and said seriously.
"Let go?" Lu Chen almost couldn't hold his breath when he heard this. He was neither angry nor not angry. He was extremely depressed. He swore in his heart that he would never deal with this woman again after this incident.
When Huo Lingshuang saw Lu Chen's appearance, he was extremely happy in his heart. He said very seriously: "Yes, with your ability to defeat the three Huo Rong people at the same time, even if you attack at the early stage of the Lingtian realm, you will still be able to do it."
He may not be your opponent, but what if you think of your little lover and show mercy?"
"Little lover?"
When Huo Fentian and Huo Rong heard this, they all looked at Lu Chen with interest. Unexpectedly, Gui Yaoer turned out to be his little lover. Yan Zun also looked at him with interest.
Seeing this, Huo Lingshuang looked even more proud, blinked and said, "Father, you don't know, it was because of this guy that Gui Yaoer rejected that bastard Tan Gang."
"I didn't expect Brother Lu to have such ability, I really admire him." Huo Fentian said with a smile.
Although Huo Rong and the other three didn't say much, the admiration in their eyes was clearly evident.
"Haha, let's not mention this for now. Little friend Lu Chen, although Lingshuang is a bit unruly, she is right. Your relationship with Gui Yao'er is extraordinary. When the time comes to compete with her, you will be able to do it.
"?" Yan Zun said with a smile.
"Old fox!"
Lu Chen murmured a few words in his heart, and finally understood why Huo Lingshuang was so smart and savage, because she had an equally smart father.
But Lu Chen was very calm on the surface. He looked at Huo Lingshuang and asked, "Miss Lingshuang, I wonder what other ideas you have thought of?"
Huo Lingshuang's eyes widened when he heard the words, and he looked very unhappy and said: "Humph, you actually saw it. In this case, I will tell you directly, you must help me get first place, otherwise, you will pay compensation."
Me, compensate me with 500 million spiritual crystals."
After saying this, she shook her five fingers at Lu Chen and said, "Just think of it as my reward for taking you to see Guiyao'er."
"Five billion spiritual crystals?"
Not to mention Lu Chen, even Huo Fentian and the others were shocked when they heard this. They must know that even they couldn't produce 500 million spiritual crystals, so Huo Rong and the other three looked at him with gloating.
They knew very well that even if Huo Rong among them helped Huo Lingshuang, it would be difficult for them to even get into the top three, let alone get first place.
Although Lu Chen has the strength to challenge beyond the next level, the heirs of the ancient clan, especially direct descendants like Tian Ling'er, Lingxian, Xue Mingyue, Yu Feiyan, and Guiyao'er, all have the strength to challenge beyond the next level.
;
With their help, the possibility of Lu Chen defeating them was almost impossible, so they were sure that Lu Chen would lose.
Huo Lingshuang obviously knew this, and she said with a proud look on her face: "It doesn't matter if you don't have 500 million spiritual crystals. If the time comes, you will be my follower for the rest of your life."
"Nonsense!"
Yan Zun, who was sitting above, suddenly scolded Huo Lingshuang, and then said apologetically to Lu Chen: "Little friend Lu Chen, Lingshuang is joking with you. If you really can't help her get first place, just do Huo Lingshuang for me."
It only takes ten years for the clan to refine the elixir."
After saying this, Yan Zun was full of praise and said: "You, little friend Lu Chen, can become an eighth-level alchemist at a young age. Not to mention that there is no such thing in Zhongzhou, it is extremely rare even among the eight ancient tribes.
.”
"Oh, I heard Master Yan say that among the eight ancient tribes, there are also eighth-level alchemists of the same age as me?" Lu Chen asked curiously.
Before Yan Zun could speak, Huo Lingshuang snorted and said, "There is one, Lingxian's younger brother, Linghuang, a guy who is even more self-righteous than you."
Lu Chen was surprised when he heard this. He originally thought that he was already powerful, but he didn't expect that among the ancient clan, there really was an alchemy prodigy like him. It seemed that he still underestimated the ancient clan's heritage.
After thinking for a while, Lu Chen suddenly felt something in his heart and asked: "Miss Lingshuang, what if I help you win the first place?"
"Whatever you want, just say it, I am not a stingy person." Huo Lingshuang said with a hum.
"I need one thing, Phoenix Blood Crystal. Of course, if you don't have Phoenix Blood Crystal, Sun Essence Stone or Six Yin True Water will also work." Lu Chen said seriously, 'In addition, I have another request...?'
"etc!"
At this moment, Huo Lingshuang suddenly interrupted Lu Chen, his eyes widened, and asked: "Do you want the Phoenix Blood Crystal, the Sun Essence Stone, and the Six Yin True Waters?"
"It's just one of them." Lu Chen touched his nose and said.
But Huo Lingshuang looked very angry and said angrily: "Do you think I am an idiot? Which of these things is not worth more than 500 million spirit crystals? What's more, the Six Yin True Water has long since disappeared, you let me go
Where to go?”
Lu Chen was not only not angry when he heard this, but his eyes lit up and he asked: "I heard Miss Lingshuang say that the nobles have Phoenix Blood Crystal and Sun Essence Stone?"
"No, there's nothing." Huo Lingshuang was stunned when he heard the words, then realized what he was saying and said hurriedly.
Seeing Lu Chen looking at her with a half-smile but not a smile, she gritted her teeth and said, "I won't do it if I say no."
At this moment, Yan Zun suddenly spoke and said: "Okay, little friend Lu Chen, our clan does not have the Six Yin True Water, but we do have a Phoenix Blood Crystal, and we also know some news about the Sun Essence Stone."
"Father...?" Huo Lingshuang spoke hurriedly when he heard the words, trying to stop him, but Yan Zun waved his hand and said to Lu Chen seriously: "Little friend Lu Chen, if you can help Lingshuang win the first place,
, then I will not only give you the Phoenix Blood Crystal, but I will also tell you the news about the Sun Essence Stone."
"Do you really mean what Yan Zun said?" When Lu Chen heard this, he was so excited that he almost wanted to stand up, but he still tried hard to suppress his inner emotions.
Lu Chen's reaction seemed to be what Yan Zun expected. He smiled and said to a maid beside him: "Go to my study and get the seventh jade box from the bookcase."
"yes."
The maid nodded slightly, turned around and went up to the second floor of the palace.
Seeing this, Huo Lingshuang said anxiously: "Father, you got that Phoenix Blood Crystal with so much hard work, how can you take it out?"
"Silly girl, as long as it can make you happy, let alone that piece of Phoenix Blood Crystal, I am willing to ask my father to take out all those treasures." Yan Zun said with a smile.
When Huo Lingshuang heard this, he was extremely moved. His eyes were slightly red and he said, "Thank you, father. My daughter doesn't care if she doesn't win first place."
