Chapter 63: Chapter 63: I Should Be the One to Apologize!

Just four words revealed Lu Chen’s immense confidence.

Yu Qingqing also suddenly remembered, last night she had proudly told Li Mingru that Lu Chen killed Zhu Dazhuang with just one move!

But now, she felt some suspicion towards Lu Chen.

"However, you should still be careful. I’ll take you to find our teacher..."

Lu Chen smiled, "The teacher will come to the courtyard in the evening. I’ll just mention it to him then. Instead, why don’t you take me to see the arena today? Who knows, the competition might start tomorrow!"

Seeing how Lu Chen seemed completely unworried, Yu Qingqing had no other choice but to lead him from the inner courtyard to the outer courtyard.

The arenas were all located in the outer courtyard, not far from the courtyard entrance.

When they reached the place, they both coincidentally saw a familiar figure at the door.

Who else could it be if not Xu Qianqian?

At that moment, she stood at the entrance, talking to a martial artist with a strange expression.

Lu Chen had a bad feeling, but he couldn’t put his finger on it.

Yu Qingqing said, "That’s a bodyguard from Xu Qianqian’s family, maybe it’s something about the Xu Family that they need to tell Xu Qianqian, right?"

"To deliver a message, is it necessary to send a Visceral Refinement Realm martial artist?"

Lu Chen simply deduced the other party’s realm from the martial artist’s stature.

He had killed the Lu Family’s Senior Third Elder who was in the Visceral Refinement Realm, and the most obvious trait was that such a person completely concealed their aura.

To the average person, they would seem like any ordinary individual.

But a martial artist could detect small clues from the person’s demeanor and conduct.

This was also an experience that Lu Chen had gained through life-and-death struggles with many martial artists.

Yu Qingqing, being only in the Bone Refinement Realm, naturally couldn’t discern the other party’s realm, and could only tell that their strength was greater than her own.

Yet even the mention of the Visceral Refinement Realm made her gasp.

It wasn’t until that martial artist stuffed something into Xu Qianqian’s hands and left that she said, "The Xu Family is also a prestigious noble family with great power, so she behaves arrogantly and overbearingly in the academy."

"The Xu Family..."

Lu Chen finally understood where that earlier feeling had come from.

Xu Yueru also had the surname Xu, and more importantly, she was a member of the Polar Treasure Meeting!

At first, he couldn’t understand how a Flesh Refinement Realm martial artist could become the president of the Polar Treasure Meeting’s Yuzhou branch.

Now that he saw Xu Qianqian talking to a Visceral Refinement Realm martial artist.

Coupled with the possibility that Xu Yueru was also from that Xu Family, couldn’t that explain everything?

But if that was the case, then there was a bigger problem.

If Xu Yueru was part of the Polar Treasure Meeting, that would indicate that Xu Qianqian also had an astonishing background, and it was more likely that she had ties to the Polar Treasure Meeting!

For a moment, Lu Chen couldn’t help but feel a profound headache.

Zhu Dazhuang had reacted violently as soon as he heard his name called by Yu Qingqing.

That showed that his name had spread within the Polar Treasure Meeting!

Should he...

Silence them, and then hide his identity?

After all, not many people knew his name at present.

Besides, Xu Qianqian seemed not to pay too much attention to his name!

As soon as this thought struck him, Lu Chen was startled by his own idea.

It was then that Xu Qianqian happened to notice the two of them.

Xu Qianqian gave Lu Chen a meaningful glance before quickly leaving.

"That look, it’s suspicious!"

Although Lu Chen didn’t reveal his pupils, his ability to observe facial expressions was extremely strong. He immediately noticed that her glance seemed to be probing the deepest secrets hidden within him.

"Lu Chen, what’s wrong?"

Yu Qingqing noticed that Lu Chen seemed off and thought he was intimidated by Xu Qianqian’s background. She said, "Don’t worry, after joining Heavenly Book Academy, one can no longer use their family’s power; otherwise, they would be expelled from the Xu Family."

Lu Chen wasn’t worried about the Xu Family at all.

His concern was whether the Xu Family was related to the Polar Treasure Meeting!

The Polar Treasure Meeting was known for not playing by the rules!

However, he didn’t want to worry Yu Qingqing and thus said, "We should go back, it’s time to cultivate."

"Okay, sure."

Seeing that his expression had returned to normal, Yu Qingqing unwittingly breathed a sigh of relief and led Lu Chen back the way they came.

...

"You’re saying you want to challenge that one-eyed dragon?"

Just as Xu Qianqian returned to her courtyard, Wu Chiren greeted her with a smile and shared the news with her.

"Yes, Qian Qian, I told the kid to apologize to you, but he wouldn’t listen to reason. So I decided to teach him a lesson! I’ve thought it through; I’ll lower my realm. If he refuses, he’ll be in trouble with Li Mingru!"

"Who told you to teach him?"

Xu Qianqian’s pretty face turned cold. Just now, the Visceral Refinement Realm bodyguard from her home had brought her a message to check on the newcomer who joined Heavenly Book Academy in the last two days.

As far as she knew.

That newcomer was the only one-eyed individual!

The Xu Family’s bodyguard did not elaborated the purpose for investigating the newcomer, nor did Xu Yueru dare to speculate recklessly.

If the intention was to woo Lu Chen, wouldn’t Wu Chiren’s actions potentially spoil her plans?

"Qian Qian, that kid is ungrateful..."

Seeing Xu Qianqian getting angry, Wu Chiren also became flustered.

"It’s my affair, you needn’t worry about it! If anyone should apologize, it should be me to that one-eyed dragon! By the way, do you know his name?"

Xu Qianqian asked coldly, leaving Wu Chiren speechless.
