Chapter 65: Chapter 65: You’re Not Worthy to Challenge Me!

Lu Chen was quite displeased.

But with so many people watching, he didn’t want to respond with harsh words and invite more trouble.

"Dinner, right? Fine, I agree, but I’m busy now, so please step aside!"

He thought to placate her for now and could simply break the appointment later.

"Really... really?"

Xu Qianqian blinked her big eyes with such genuine sincerity that if Lu Chen hadn’t seen her spoiled other side and knew about Xu Yueru, he might have really believed she was being sincere at that moment!

He sneered inside, but on the surface, he nodded and said, "If you keep blocking me, then it will be false."

With that said, Xu Qianqian, despite being annoyed, had no choice but to let it go.

As she watched Lu Chen leave, a sly gleam flashed in her eyes.

"By the way, I still don’t know your name!"

This was her purpose!

First, she drew the attention of the others, and then...

With just a little trick, she could get many students in the academy to fall for her beauty, and then inquire whether Lu Chen had a Black Jiao Snake!

"Chen Lu!"

Lu Chen immediately used the alias he had just made up.

Xu Qianqian, thinking she had succeeded, was smugly proud inside. You’re still far from being a match for me in this game!

It’s just a shame to have to act with such a disgusting person, which is nauseating!

"Alright then, Chen Lu, I’ll wait for you tonight at the outer court’s tavern!"

Xu Qianqian said sweetly, waving her hand, mesmerizing a group of student martial artists.

Naturally, they began to resent Lu Chen.

Xu Qianqian was acting like this; surely, Lu Chen must have some leverage over her, right?

Otherwise, Xu Qianqian doesn’t even spare us a glance, so why would she invite you to dinner?

Suddenly, quite a few student martial artists started to follow Lu Chen from a distance. Witnessing this scene satisfied Xu Qianqian enough to leave.

"These martial artists can be used by me," she mused.

"And Chen Lu, after suffering enough, might also come begging to me."

"Hmph, even if you’re not the person my clan is looking for, you’ll still be at my mercy!"

...

"Kid, halt!"

Lu Chen heard a voice from behind, but he ignored it and continued walking ahead.

"Hey, I told you to stop, are you deaf?"

The martial artist was annoyed, especially with several martial artists around, feeling that he had lost face.

He immediately executed his footwork and blocked Lu Chen’s path.

"Are you talking to me?"

This martial artist was a few years younger than Lu Chen, yet he was a Martial Artist of the Bone Refinement Realm.

Lu Chen pointed to himself and said impatiently.

"With just you here, who else would I be talking to, a dog?"

The young man’s temper flared as he was smitten with Xu Qianqian, naturally speaking without restraint.

Lu Chen smiled faintly and said, "I thought you were calling them."

Saying this, he deliberately looked over at the crowd.

Suddenly, a group of martial artists looked extremely displeased.

Lu Chen didn’t say anything else, but his gaze suggested that he was insinuating they were dogs!

However, this martial artist didn’t think much of it and felt that Lu Chen was just trying to appease him with a smile. He held his head high and said proudly, "Do you know who I am?"

Lu Chen chuckled and said, "I don’t know, don’t you know? Maybe you should go ask your mom?"

At these words, the martial artist’s face turned red instantly!

But before he could lash out in anger, Lu Chen added something shocking!

"Is it because you don’t know who your mom is? Maybe you should ask your dad?"

The young martial artist wished he could draw his sword and cut Lu Chen down, but the rules of the academy prohibited fighting, so he had to forcibly contain himself and said, "Your name is Chen Lu, right?"

Lu Chen burst into laughter and said, "You ask just because I tell you to? Sorry, I’m not your real dad!"

Before the youth could react, the surrounding martial artists who were prepared to enjoy the scene couldn’t hold back any longer and burst into laughter.

"You... are seeking death!"

The young man finally understood the implication of Lu Chen’s words—he was taking advantage of him. Enraged, he drew his long sword and said, "I challenge you to a duel to the death!"

In a word or two, he hadn’t grasped the underlying meaning.

But linking it all together, how could he not realize that Lu Chen was mocking him in front of everyone!

Making a fool out of him!

Which of the students here was not a proud talent of the heavens?

Plus the pride of a young man who valued face above all else!

Hearing this, Lu Chen just smiled slightly, "Sorry, I don’t accept."

With that, he turned and walked away!

"Chen Lu, you actually reject my challenge?"

The young man was also stunned. Although academy rules didn’t require one to accept a challenge, there was an unwritten rule among them.

Whoever refused was a coward!

Despicable!

A multitude of martial artists began to despise Lu Chen even more.

But to their surprise, they heard Lu Chen’s lazy voice,

"Challenge me? You’re not worthy!"
