Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1133 - 1133 1093 Encounter with Xielin

1133: Chapter 1093: Encounter with Xielin 1133: Chapter 1093: Encounter with Xielin By the next day, Lu Chuan arrived early at Yuxing Street, where the aroma of herbal medicine pervaded the air.

Clearly, most of the shops on this street sold herbal medicines, including the Su family’s shop which was the most noticeable with the largest signboard.

However, it was now closed, with the doors tightly shut and not a single piece of debris in front.

To the uninformed, it would appear as though such a large shop had gone out of business.

Lu Chuan followed the street and spotted Chen’s Shop from afar.

The facade of the shop wasn’t very large, but it was the size of an inn, bustling with numerous busy employees.

Business at Chen’s Shop was decent especially since the Su family had led the shutdown, making it basically the largest shop on this street.

If someone wanted to buy hundreds of herbs at once, this would definitely be the place to go.

Otherwise, they’d have to go to the adjacent stores, searching from one to the next.

That would be more troublesome.

Lu Chuan leaned against a tree in the distance, waiting quietly.

“Who’s coming to buy the herbs?

Lu Ziyang or Xielin?”

After pondering for a moment, he immediately concluded that it must be Lu Ziyang.

Xielin was too conspicuous.

He guessed that Lu Ziyang would come personally but would disguise himself extremely well.

This was the time to test Lu Chuan’s observance; missing it would mean missing the opportunity!

Lu Chuan knew that Lu Ziyang was highly adept at concealing himself; hence, spotting him would be very challenging.

Nevertheless, he would still give it a try.

Lu Chuan stared at the entrance of the shop, and after a while, he immediately noticed a figure approaching.

A tall man, nearly two meters high, wearing a black robe and a hood was walking towards him.

Lu Chuan rubbed his eyes in disbelief, “This height, isn’t it exactly the same as Xielin’s?”

“Could it really be Xielin coming to buy herbal medicines?”

Lu Chuan frowned, unexpectedly it wasn’t Lu Ziyang who came personally!

Lu Chuan quickly walked towards Xielin.

At the entrance of Chen’s Shop, Xielin entered and said in a deep voice to the shopkeeper, “I want a hundred stalks of Blueglow Grass.”

“A hundred stalks?

Okay, I’ll have the clerk prepare it immediately.

You will be able to take it with you in no time!”

Xielin glanced around and then walked towards a nearby chair.

Just as he was about to sit down, Lu Chuan suddenly pulled the chair away, causing him to fall directly onto the ground.

“Who did that?

Are you looking to die?”

Xielin abruptly stood up, and through his black mask, he began to look nervously at Lu Chuan.

His eyes flickered slightly, then he said sternly, “I’ll assume you didn’t see me about to sit, so I won’t make a big issue of it.”

“I’ll go get another chair.” He turned to leave, but Lu Chuan reached out and placed a hand on his shoulder.

“Brother, I’d like to have a chat with you.”

“Chat?

What about?”

“Do you know about the flood dragon that has appeared recently in the lake outside the city?

That creature has caused us tremendous losses.”

At this point, the shopkeeper joined the conversation, “Yeah, I reckon there’s nobody in the city who hasn’t heard about it.

That beast is hiding in the lake and doesn’t dare to come out.

If it does, we in Cloud Sea City will definitely skin it and eat its flesh!”

Xielin stood still, his fist clenched.

“Do you think what they’re saying makes sense?

As soon as that guy shows up, he’s going to be skinned and eaten!”

Xielin turned back to Lu Chuan, “I don’t know about any flood dragon you’re talking about.

I’ve only recently arrived here and I have other matters, so I’ll pass on the chat.”

“Xielin, what could you possibly be busy with?

Come on, have a good chat with me.”

Xielin was just about to turn around when he suddenly paused and looked back at Lu Chuan, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Xielin?

What Xielin?”

“Stop pretending.

I saw through you in a crowd, why bother continuing this act?”

Upon hearing this, Xielin’s heart tightened, and he nervously swallowed.

“Saw through me with just one look?

Impossible, I’ve disguised myself perfectly.

No one can recognize me!”

Lu Chuan looked him over, “There are fewer than five people with your physique in this entire city, and you came here to buy herbal medicine for Lu Ziyang, why do you think I wouldn’t recognize you?”

Xielin took several steps back, creating distance between himself and Lu Chuan.

For a moment, a chilling killing intent pervaded between the two men.

The shopkeeper, seeing this, couldn’t help but crouch down and hide under the counter.

“Lu Chuan!

You actually found this place!

You’re quite capable, but do you really think you can stop me?”

He arrogantly yelled.

Then, he pulled out a sharp cleaver from behind him, ready to fight.

At this moment, the caretaker hurriedly said from the side, “Gentlemen, could you please take it outside?

Don’t destroy my little shop, we can’t afford that.”

Lu Chuan turned his head and said, “I’m ridding the people of a menace here.

If I could slay the flood dragon, what’s a mere shop in comparison?”

“What flood dragon?

Where is there a flood dragon?”

“This guy doesn’t look anything like a flood dragon.

You must be mistaken.

Maybe check outside before starting a fight?”

Feeling helpless, Lu Chuan thought these people clearly did not realize the burly man in front of them was the embodiment of a flood dragon.

Lu Chuan drew out his Soul Terminating Sword, ready for battle.

“Xielin, you’ve got nowhere to run.

Prepare to die!”

Right then, a crackling sound was heard from Xielin’s body; it was his bones making noises.

Soon after, his body began to swell significantly as his skeleton enlarged and his muscles bulged.

His stature increased to two and a half, even approaching three meters.

Hiss!!

His black robe was torn apart as it stretched, revealing bulging muscles beneath.

Shockingly, his muscles were covered in dark scales.

“Lu Chuan, you say I can’t escape?

Today I’ll make an escape just to show you, let you witness my running capabilities!”

Lu Chuan summoned the Divine Fire of the Sun with his left hand, “To make an escape sound so impressive, you do have some skill.”

“This…

Is he really the flood dragon?

Impossible!”

The shopkeeper hiding nearby was scared to a pale face.

Bang!!

Suddenly, Xielin’s head hit the beam overhead, causing a loud collision sound.

Everyone in the shop fled at that moment.

Some, unaware of what had happened, were curious and started asking around after running out to the street.

“What in the world happened?

Does anyone know?”

“I was resting upstairs, then I felt someone pushing up the floor, who was that?”

“No, he was pushing it with his head!”

“What?

Is he crazy?

Did he jump up and hit the ceiling?”

“No, it was his height expanding until his head hit the ceiling!”

“That guy…

is a monster, right?”

“Yes, absolutely a monster.

Someone said, he is the incarnation of the flood dragon!”
