Chapter 371: Chapter 371: Death in Yandu

The Great Elder was momentarily stunned before he realized what Qin Chuan meant — he wanted to go find Liu Kuangren right now.

"How could that be possible?" he said hurriedly.

"Two days ago, Green Gate Sect already unilaterally announced tomorrow’s duel and made a big deal of it. If you eliminate Liu Kuangren now, how would the world view our Shen Zhou Battle Domain?"

"Don’t be in such a hurry. Since I’ve promised that you can meet with them, I definitely won’t go back on my word," he added.

He was really worried that, in his impatience, Qin Chuan would go fight Liu Kuangren right away.

This battle concerned the face of Shen Zhou Battle Domain; only a victory witnessed by the public could uphold the Domain’s dignity.

If Qin Chuan went off to kill Liu Kuangren now, who would believe it?

Not only would the public not believe it, but they would also think that Liu Kuangren had been secretly besieged and killed by a large number of strong fighters from Shen Zhou Battle Domain.

Qin Chuan furrowed his eyebrows. It was just Liu Kuangren, after all—killed, so what? Was all this caution really necessary?

He had already met Liu Kuangren once at Yandu International Airport when he left Yandu, and he had some understanding of Liu Kuangren’s strength.

The first time they met, Qin Chuan was completely confident he could kill Liu Kuangren, not to mention now when his cultivation had almost fully recovered.

"Mr. Qin, please!"

Seeing that Qin Chuan remained silent for a long time, the Great Elder, his face filled with pleading and eyes red, stared at Qin Chuan as he spoke.

Qin Chuan said, "Then after Liu Kuangren has been dealt with tomorrow, we’ll head to the Eastern Region!"

He wasn’t an unreasonable man. The Great Elder, the helmsman of Shen Zhou Battle Domain, had lowered his stance so much. If Qin Chuan insisted on getting his way, that would really be overstepping the bounds.

Upon hearing Qin Chuan’s words, the Great Elder finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he took out a box the size of a shoebox, opened it, and saw a mask shimmering with metallic luster.

"This mask is called ’Shadow Phantom’," the artifact is one of the Battle Domain’s treasures that can conceal the wearer’s cultivation level and change the wearer’s voice," the Great Elder explained with a smile returning to his face as he looked at Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan’s eyes brightened immediately—the Shadow Phantom mask was exactly what he needed right now, wasn’t it?

Tomorrow’s battle was bound to cause a huge sensation, and if his face was exposed, he would very likely be discovered by the strong fighters from Kunlun Divine Prison, which would mean big trouble.

But with the Shadow Phantom mask, all his troubles would be easily solved.

By the time Qin Chuan left the Great Elder’s office, a whole hour had passed since he entered.

During that time, Lu Yaozong had been waiting in Secretary Huang’s office. Only after Qin Chuan left the Great Elder’s office did he bid farewell to Secretary Huang.

"Qin Chuan, it’s getting late. Why don’t you come stay at the Lu Family’s place tonight?" Lu Yaozong said with a smile after they walked out of the office building.

Qin Chuan declined, "I’ll visit the Lu Family another day. Let’s skip it for today."

Previously when he came to Yandu, Third Master Ye, Ye Tiancheng gifted him an expensive mansion. Now, whenever he came to Yandu, he would have a place to stay.

Besides, Tang Yue’er was there as well—it wouldn’t be that convenient to go to the Lu Family’s place.

Although Lu Yaozong very much wanted Qin Chuan to stay at the Lu Family’s, he understood that insisting wouldn’t be appropriate. So, he said, "In that case, when Mr. Qin has time another day, I’ll extend an invitation again for you to visit the Lu Family."

While they were speaking, a strawberry pink Cullinan screeched to a halt beside them. The window rolled down to reveal a delicate face—it was Lu Yanwu.

In just over two hours, Lu Yanwu had returned to her original appearance, just like when Qin Chuan first met her.

She wore a white shirt full of modern flair on the upper body and a pair of trousers below, the style simple yet fashionable.

Gone was the indifferent demeanor she had when she first met Qin Chuan, now her face was full of a soft smile, her fair skin, coupled with delicate facial features, exuding tenderness.

As Lu Yanwu looked at Qin Chuan with a face full of tender affection, Tang Yue’er, standing beside him, was watching her.

Previously, when Lu Yanwu was dressed like an exaggerated delinquent girl, Tang Yue’er was merely surprised, but now, faced with Yan Wu’s transformed image, she felt an increased pressure within her heart.

Lu Yanwu was not only young and pretty but also from a wealthy and influential background.

Tang Yue’er had been initially relieved to be alone with Mr. Qin, but she hadn’t expected that in Yandu, there would be another woman casting loving glances at him.

Suddenly, she felt very uncomfortable.

Lu Yanwu gave a sweet smile and said, "Brother Qin, please get in the car. Where do you want to go? I’ll take you!"

From the moment she saw him, her gaze had stayed fixed on Qin Chuan, ignoring Tang Yue’er next to him and even her own grandfather.

Seeing Lu Yanwu’s new look, Lu Yaozong felt a surge of joy in his heart.

Qin Chuan said, "Then I’ll trouble Miss Lu to take us to Cloud Summit Heaven Villa."

Cloud Summit Heaven Villa was precisely the grand residence that Ye Tiancheng had given him, one of the ten grand villas in Yandu known as ’The Yandu’s Top Ten’.

If he were alone, he could reach Cloud Summit Heaven Villa just as quickly on foot as by car given his speed, but with Tang Yue’er by his side, he had no choice but to ride in Lu Yanwu’s car.

Without any reservation, Qin Chuan took Tang Yue’er’s hand and got into Lu Yanwu’s luxury car.

The sudden touch of his hand sent Tang Yue’er’s heart racing, and she wondered what Qin Chuan would do to her once they were alone at Cloud Summit Heaven Villa.

If Qin Chuan tried anything, should she consent?

Still a virgin and having never been in a relationship, if she gave herself too easily and without clarity to Qin Chuan, would he find her too promiscuous?

Just by holding hands and getting into the car, numerous conflicting thoughts had already flashed through Tang Yue’er’s mind.

Lu Yanwu saw Qin Chuan holding Tang Yue’er’s hand as they got into the car, and her lips twitched slightly, her face full of grievance.

"Vroom~"

A roar of the engine sounded as the luxury car turned into a streak of pink lightning, speeding away.

"Hey... I haven’t gotten in the car yet!"

Lu Yaozong was left disheveled in the wind.

Watching the tail lights of the receding car, Lu Yaozong sighed, "A grown daughter is not to be kept at home!"

Just as Qin Chuan departed in Lu Yanwu’s luxury car, on the rooftop of a nearby building, a young man in battle attire was gazing somberly in the direction of the departing vehicle.

Opposite him, another young man dressed in casual attire stood with an air of authority.

Liu Xu coldly asked the young man in front of him, "You’re telling me that recently there haven’t been any regular encounters of unfamiliar men around Lu Yanwu, except for a little while ago when she made a trip to the East Sea, where she met a man?"

The young man nodded hastily, "Yes, the same guy who just left in Lu Yanwu’s car."

"Good, very good!"

Liu Xu said with a fierce expression, "A country bumpkin dares to covet my woman! Pass down my orders, I want him dead before tonight’s over!"
