The deadly threat instantly closed in on Long Chen.
"Completely unreasonable, all you want is my life …"
At that moment, Long Chen's heart did not fluctuate at all. Instead, he was extremely calm.
He knew that he was still valuable, and Liu Lan wouldn't let him die in Chu Yunxi's hands.
Therefore, he sat down with his legs crossed and started using his Profound healing skill, Recovery Healing.
As expected, just as Chu Yunxi was about to charge at Long Chen with a murderous expression, a slim figure flew out from the house and blocked Long Chen's way. She then slapped Chu Yunxi with her palm. This powerful attack directly sent Chu Yunxi flying!
This was the first time Long Chen had seen Liu Lan attack. The strength of a peak Earth Core warrior was indeed something. With just a simple attack, she had sent Chu Yunxi, the number one genius of the Green Clan, flying!
"Sister Lan, you actually attacked me because of him?"
Chu Yunxi's eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was gloomy.
"Yunxi, don't think too much."
Liu Lan turned around and looked at Long Chen with a pained expression. She pretended to be in pain and said to Chu Yunxi, "Since you've seen it, I don't want to hide it from you anymore. I didn't promise you before because I already have someone in my heart …"
Long Chen almost vomited blood when he heard this.
He was about to scold Liu Lan, but he didn't expect that Liu Lan already knew what he was going to do. As soon as she turned around, she placed her hand on Long Chen's shoulder in a corner where Chu Yunxi couldn't see. Instantly, he swallowed the words he was about to say.
"Is he the person you're talking about?"
Chu Yunxi's eyes were filled with hatred. He wanted to eat Long Chen alive. Long Chen had made such a huge enemy out of nowhere, and he was almost killed. The anger in his heart was less than Chu Yunxi's. However, Liu Lan's strength was stronger than his. Under her control, Long Chen couldn't say a word!
"I know him. I heard that he's going to participate in the inner tribe selection.
Good!
Good! "
Chu Yunxi's heart twitched when he thought about what had just happened. After saying the word 'good' three times, he stared at Long Chen and sneered, "Since you attacked me because of him, I'm indeed not your opponent right now. However, the day of the inner tribe selection will be the day this kid dies!"
He stared at Long Chen for a while like a ferocious beast, then looked at Liu Lan with a broken heart. Biting his lips, he turned around and left.
What happened today only drove him crazy to the extreme.
…..
After Chu Yunxi went to Green Willow House, Liu Yuan and Chu Fengqing had nothing to do, so they drank and joked around.
"Brother Liu, why do you think your daughter allowed my son to meet her alone?"
Liu Yuan was also at a loss and laughed awkwardly, "This lass has never acted according to common sense since she was young. How would I have guessed?"
"Could it be that she wants my son to visit her boudoir?" Chu Fengqing chuckled.
At this age, Chu Fengqing was still a little disrespectful. Liu Yuan was a little speechless. He continued to tease Chu Fengqing. At this time, Chu Yunxi walked in with an ashen face.
Liu Yuan was startled and asked, "Yunxi, where's Lan 'er?"
"You still have the nerve to ask me?"
Chu Yunxi laughed coldly and then turned to Chu Fengqing. "Father, let's go. We'll never come back to this damned Qingyang Hall again!"
The people in the room were all stunned. Liu Yuan immediately guessed that something was wrong with Liu Lan. He immediately said, "Yunxi, did Lan 'er say something to you?"
Chu Yunxi looked at him coldly and said, "Do you dare to say you don't know what your daughter has done?"
Before Liu Yuan could react, Chu Yunxi had already walked out of the room. Chu Fengqing immediately felt that something was wrong when he saw this.
In fact, if it weren't for his son's insistence, he would never have agreed to the marriage. He wouldn't have wasted so much time talking to Liu Yuan, the weakest among the eight founding elders.
Chu Fengqing could roughly guess from his son's words that Liu Lan had made him give up.
"That's even better. That girl Liu Lan has a bad reputation. If she marries, it will be a disgrace to the Chu Clan!"
With this thought in mind, Chu Fengqing's attitude toward Liu Yuan took a 180-degree turn. He smirked coldly and followed Chu Yunxi out of the Qingyang Hall without looking back.
"Let's go and see what Liu Lan is up to!"
They were both founding elders, yet Liu Yuan was being looked down upon. His face turned ashen as he slammed the table and stood up!
The surrounding elders and deacons kept quiet out of fear when they saw Liu Yuan's rage.
"What's wrong with Deacon Liu?
Even if he's not willing to accept the marriage proposal from the Green Royal Hall, there's no need for this, right?
The Green Royal Hall is the top hall of the Green Tribe. It's a reputable figure among the other tribes. Why is Liu Lan so reckless? "
The elders were struggling with the same question.
… …
Although Long Chen was severely injured, he was treated in time by Guiyuan. Liu Lan even took out a Mid-grade medicine from her Heaven-Earth Pouch and fed it to him. Only then did Long Chen recover from his injuries.
Long Chen raised his head and looked at the calm Liu Lan. He said with a gloomy smile, "This time, we have a great feud."
"Is that so?" Liu Lan said indifferently, "It's just a minor injury. Didn't I let you see all you want?"
"Is your body worth that much?" Long Chen struggled to stand up.
"Let's go to my room and treat your injuries first."
"Don't even think of trying to curry favor with me. Liu Lan, regardless of whether it is you or Chu Yunxi, I, Long Chen, will definitely avenge today's grudge. If you have the guts, kill me now. Otherwise, when I climb all over your head …"
Long Chen took a few steps forward, before he turned around and said in a cold tone, "I'm going to climb on top of you."
Liu Lan was startled, before she said with a provocative smile, "If you can defeat Chu Yunxi and enter the inner tribe, you can do whatever you want to me."
Long Chen clenched his fists, before he loosened them. He was indeed no match for Liu Lan at this moment. Therefore, he had no choice but to let it go after being used by her.
"Do you really think I want you?"
Long Chen burst out laughing and said, "I have plenty of sisters. Why would I work so hard for an aunty like you?"
"Aunty?"
Liu Lan almost fainted from anger. She was about to flip out, but Long Chen had already left without even looking back.
She watched as Long Chen left. Although he was injured, he was still as straight as a spear.
"Wasn't it too much for me to use him today?
Once he grows stronger, he'll bite back at me sooner or later … "
Thinking of Huang Feiyang and the Scarlet Blood Sect Master's fates, Liu Lan shivered.
"No matter, at least I can make that brat Chu Yunxi give up. Although that brat looks refined, he's arrogant, arrogant, and condescending. If I follow him, half of my life will be ruined. How can I, Liu Lan, rely on someone else and live by looking at someone else's face …"
These were her true thoughts. She really hated Chu Yunxi to the core. That was why she used such a method to make Chu Yunxi give up.
"Like this, the relationship between the Azure Sun Hall and the Azure Imperial Hall will be broken. However, ever since Chu Yunxi set his eyes on me, this matter will definitely happen."
Liu Lan's face was filled with helplessness.
When she thought of Long Chen and how much he'd improved during this period of time, Liu Lan nodded inwardly and said, "Now, I can only place my bet on him. He's always been a person filled with miracles, and the greater the pressure, the faster he'll grow. Since Chu Yunxi tried to kill him today, with his character, he'll definitely plan to take revenge during the inner clan selection!"
Long Chen's temperament had already been completely grasped by Liu Lan.
Everything that had happened today seemed to have happened suddenly, but it was all according to Liu Lan's plan. Chu Yunxi and Long Chen's temperament had been completely controlled by her. From this, it could be seen how high her methods were.
"However, I said those big words just now. If he really got lucky and entered the inner clan, wouldn't I … …"
Thinking of this, she thought of Long Chen's lifeless expression when he saw her jade body today. Liu Lan suddenly felt her face heat up … …
… …
After being tricked for no reason, and almost losing his life, it was impossible for Long Chen not to be angry.
"That perverted woman is truly terrifying. I think she must have been preparing for this for a long time. I'm such an idiot. I actually jumped right into the pit she dug and became enemies with Chu Yunxi. Now I'm covered in injuries …"
Thinking of Chu Yunxi, the murderous intent in Long Chen's heart intensified.
Liu Lan had simply tricked him and used him as a shield. Meanwhile, Chu Yunxi was really trying to kill him.
In fact, he had almost succeeded.
"Just because his strength and status are higher than mine, he has no respect for me. Does he think my life is as worthless as grass … …"
Long Chen was well aware of Chu Yunxi's temperament. Even if he knew the truth, he would not allow Long Chen to live peacefully.
"By the way, Old Man Liu mentioned that I would be on the same team as him during the inner clan selection. Given my current situation, how could I possibly be on the same team as him?
I'm afraid that he would kill me at the beginning of the selection. "
Thinking of this, Long Chen furrowed his brows.
"Liu Lan has been making enemies for me. This time, it's even worse. However, aren't you afraid that you'll play with fire one day? I, Long Chen, am not a sheep to be manipulated by you!"
Long Chen did not dare to let Lingxi see the injuries on his body. On one hand, he did not know how to explain what had happened today. Even if he did, with Lingxi's hatred for Liu Lan, she might just rush out and fight him.
Hiding in a corner of the Green Willow Residence, Long Chen used the Energy Restoring Technique to heal his injuries. At the same time, he absorbed all the middle-grade healing pills that Liu Lan had given him. Only then did he recover half of his injuries. If Long Chen were to force himself, no one would be able to tell.
As such, Long Chen headed towards the residence of the first-grade disciples. As he approached, Long Chen bumped into Gan Lin.
When he saw Long Chen, a strange expression appeared on Gan Lin's face. He shook his head and said, "Long Chen, I didn't expect you to be with the deacon in the end. However, the resistance between you and the deacon is too great. I believe that Chu Yunxi will not let you off … …"
"What did you say?" Long Chen's eyes widened.
