"Bastard!" Seeing her sword being kicked away by the opponent, Tang Xuan became furious and kicked Lu Chen in the head like lightning.
Chase Lu calmly and quickly stretched out his hand to block the opponent's feet, and shouted in a low voice: "Stop, you are no match for me!"
Tang Xuan has always had a competitive heart. How could she easily lose to a young man in front of so many people in Wushuang City?
"Shut up, I won't lose to you!" Tang Xuan shouted angrily, turning over and kicking again with her other foot.
Lu Chen had never seen such a competitive woman. In his anger, he roughly lifted her up and threw her towards the crowd. Tang Xuan instantly lost her center of gravity and flew out like a broken sack. She was so frightened in mid-air.
Her beauty turned pale, she never imagined that the other party would get angry and show no mercy at all.
If it fell to the ground, she would probably make a big fool of herself.
Maybe Lu Chen used too much force. At the critical moment when he saw Tang Xuan flying over the heads of the people and falling into the river, Lu Chen secretly made a mistake and quickly jumped up, as if a wisp of smoke passed over the heads of the spectators and grabbed Tang Xuan's wrist.
Holding him in his arms, his light body stepped on the water, took advantage of the force, and flew back to the ring gracefully.
The pretty and pale Tang Xuan stared at the angular profile in front of her, and her breathing became a little faster.
Of course, this scene also made many young heroes envious.
After the two returned to the ring, there was a round of applause from the audience.
The competition between the two was not only wonderful, but Lu Chen's behavior also fully reflected the demeanor of a humble gentleman, which attracted many people to nod and praise.
As the host, the 60-year-old old man saw that his young lady was safe and sound. He quickly stood up and laughed loudly at the people of Wushuang City: "Everyone, the competition is over. Congratulations to this young hero for becoming the champion of this competition. The old man announced that this
This young hero is the city lord’s future son-in-law riding a dragon!”
Lu Chen let go of Tang Xuan, and when he heard the loud laughter of the old man beside him, he was a little dumbfounded. How could he become the son-in-law of the Lord of the City in a daze? He couldn't wrap his head around it.
"Well done, little brother. You finally captured this evil girl. Remember to go home and train her properly. Don't let her ride on your head!"
"It's such a disgrace, brother, I have spoken out for our brothers in Wushuang City, I admire you!"
"Brother, what we said before were all joking, don't take it to heart! Congratulations."
When the young heroes under the ring saw that the city lord's daughter had a wife, they all gloated and gave thumbs up and started laughing. Of course, they were all kind smiles. After all, it was Lu Chen who gave them a bad breath and gained a lot of face.
, it makes them feel proud, how can they not be happy.
Tang Xuan stood aside at a loss. She didn't say a word for a long time, but her eyes kept staring at Lu Chen, who had an elegant temperament.
These young heroes were happy, but Lu Chen was extremely troubled. He glanced at the attic on the other side of the river and found Duguxia, the harmful bastard, lying on his back on the ridge of the roof, supporting his head in one hand and holding a wine gourd in the other.
, smiling at him jokingly.
"Damn it, this bastard is actually there gloating over his misfortune. I am also unlucky to have just returned to Wushuang City. How could I meet such a shameless person!" Lu Chen rubbed his forehead, his eyes filled with regret.
"Brother Lu, please!" A deep voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Lu Chen turned around and found a burly man with a lean body and three knife marks on his face standing behind him and staring at him. His cold eyes were full of evil. He wondered: "You are!"
The burly man responded coldly: "Situ Jian, the city lord's personal guard!"
"Oh, where to go?" Lu Chen asked confused.
Situ Jian said coldly: "Of course I will go back to the city lord's palace to discuss your marriage with Miss Tang Xuan!"
"Brother Situ, this is just a misunderstanding!" Lu Chen said.
Situ Jian didn't care if he misunderstood or not, he said directly: "Brother Lu Chen, you have defeated Miss Tang Xuan. This is something that is obvious to all. Don't explain it. Come back to the city lord's palace with me!"
Lu Chen said in a gentle tone: "Brother Situ, can you take a step to speak!"
Situ Jian raised his eyebrows, vaguely aware of Lu Chen's intention, and refused on the spot: "No need, you should tell the Lord of the City if you have anything to say, it's useless to tell me. Don't even think about escaping, this is Wushuang City,
Once martial law is enforced and the whole city is wanted, you can't run anywhere!"
Lu Chen frowned, this Situ Jian was really straightforward in his speech, and he didn't care about other people's feelings at all.
"Brother Lu, I'm waiting for you to have a good time!" Duguxia was still lying on the roof, leisurely, while teasing loudly.
Lu Chen gave him a hard look. It was a good thing that this guy didn't speak. He got angry when he heard his voice. He made trouble for nothing. He caused so much trouble for no reason. Now he doesn't know how to solve it.
He turned around and saw Situ Jian's gloomy face, as if he was afraid that he would run away, not leaving even an inch.
In desperation, Lu Chen chose to endure it. He planned to go back to the city lord's mansion with these people first. When the time came, he would meet the city lord and explain the situation, hoping that the other party would not embarrass him.
The arena was placed in the center of the street, not far from the City Lord's Mansion. After a short while, Lu Chen was taken to the City Lord's Mansion and met the current City Lord, Tang Qianjun, in the hall.
Tang Qianjun is about in his early forties, upright and in his prime, not angry and self-respecting, but at this moment, he looks quite old, with a sallow complexion and thin muscles. The hair on his temples has begun to turn white, and his eyes are dull, like a plant that has been drained of water.
The weeds are filled with an indescribable stench.
"Lu Chen, are you the one who defeated the little girl?" Tang Qianjun looked up and down at the handsome young man in front of him, with an elegant temperament and a bit of heroism between his eyebrows. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became. In addition, he had shown extraordinary performance in the ring before.
His superb martial arts skills and his sincerity made him like this young hero. He was a perfect match for his little daughter.
Lu Chen looked at the other party calmly and responded in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "That's right. It just happened for a reason. I accidentally broke into the ring and won the game. I have something to explain to the Lord of the City. I hope you can tolerate it!"
"Oh, how can you say this!" Tang Qianjun frowned. He had heard Lu Chen say similar words before on the ring. Now it seems that there is something unspeakable.
Lu Chen cupped his hands and said: "It's just a joke. I was just watching from under the ring as a spectator. I didn't intend to get on the ring to compete with Ling Qianjin. It was just a joke made by a friend.
, pushed Lu Chen up, and then broke into the ring unintentionally!" After explaining the ins and outs of the matter, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was difficult to clarify his words on the ring just now, but now he finally explained the matter clearly. There was a reason for everything, and the opponent
It shouldn't be difficult for him.
However, the city lord's words made him feel a thump again, and he had a bad premonition.
"That's it!" Tang Qianjun nodded with a surprised expression, but then he said solemnly: "But you got on the ring and defeated my daughter. According to the rules of martial arts competition, you are already my son-in-law!
"
Lu Chen frowned slightly, and suddenly felt anxious, so he said directly: "I'm sorry to say it, I have something important to do, and I have no intention of being your son-in-law. I hope you can take back your life and leave."
!”
"Be presumptuous. The city lord has taken a liking to you. That's your blessing. Don't push yourself too far!"
"Young man, you have to think twice before doing anything. The martial arts competition is a grand event carefully arranged by the city lord. It has been known to the whole city. Do you want the city lord to lose his face?"
Several old men sitting next to him suddenly shouted, with angry looks on their faces. They were all elders from the Tang family, so of course they had to think about the face of the city lord.
Tang Xuan, the protagonist of the competition to find a bride, stood aside and said nothing. Just after hearing Lu Chen's words, her teeth suddenly clenched.
Her sister looked at her somewhat abnormal sister and frowned slightly. This girl is usually very eccentric. What's wrong today?
Tang Qianjun was silent for a while, then raised his head and asked, "Lu Chen, may I ask what makes my little girl unworthy of you? Why do you reject this marriage again and again!"
Lu Chen responded very humbly: "How dare you? It's because I am of low status. I'm just trying to follow a dragon and a phoenix. I'm not worthy of your daughter."
"You think it's child's play for me to hold a martial arts competition to recruit a bride, and you want to leave after winning. Aren't you thinking too simplistic, ahem?" Tang Qianjun shouted angrily, and the turbulent momentum quietly spread, and the entire hall was silent. He was familiar with the temper of the city lord.
Everyone knows that this is the time to get ready to get angry!
Seeing that her father's face was sallow and he was coughing as he spoke, Tang Yun quickly took out a pill from a small porcelain bottle and handed it over: "Father, don't get angry. Anger will attack your heart and have a bad impact on your body!"
Tang Qianjun looked better after taking the pills handed over by Tang Yun.
Lu Chen secretly trembled in his heart. This Tang Qianjun was indeed an innate strong man. He was obviously seriously ill, but the aura he exuded was still so terrifying. The acquired warrior and the innate strong man were indeed different.
He hesitated for a while, then said helplessly: "To be honest, I have an engagement for a long time, and I have no intention of offending the Lord of the City!"
"What, this happened?" Tang Qianjun's eyes showed a bit of surprise when he heard this.
Lu Chen smiled bitterly: "I dare not hide it. I made an agreement with the other party when I was young, so I rashly refused the marriage of my daughter Ling, so as not to cause everyone to misunderstand. The Lord of the City is also a person who understands emotions and interests, and I believe he will not embarrass me!"
He had no choice but to talk about this matter, otherwise he would really not be able to find a reason to reject the other party.
"Then what if I don't agree?" Tang Qianjun finally found such a satisfactory son-in-law, how could he let him go so easily.
Lu Chen's heart sank, and his expression became serious: "Is the city lord trying to force others to make things difficult?"
His eyes swept over the many masters in the hall, and he began to make careful calculations in his mind. From the tone of the city lord, it was obvious that the other party was not going to let him go, but he had a blood feud and was involved in important matters, so he must not be delayed by a marriage.
If the other party didn't let him go, they would have to resort to force. He believed that with his 'Chasing the Wind and Lightning Steps', he would have no problem escaping from the city lord's mansion!
