Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1370 - 1370 1329 Acquiring the Human Emperor's Pendant

1370: Chapter 1329: Acquiring the Human Emperor’s Pendant 1370: Chapter 1329: Acquiring the Human Emperor’s Pendant Seeing the two embracing each other, Lu Chuan, although unwilling to interrupt the tender moment, had no choice.

The item he wanted was still in Nalan Xuan’s hands, and until he obtained the Human Emperor’s Pendant, this matter was far from resolved.

After a prolonged silence, Nalan Xuan sniffled, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and leaned into Ye Chongshan’s arms.

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Lu Chuan, standing there like an eyesore, and instantly furrowed her brows in dissatisfaction.

“Why are you still here?”

“What kind of question is that?

Just hand me the item already!

Once I get the Human Emperor’s Pendant, I’ll leave immediately.

Do you think I enjoy sticking around here?”

Lu Chuan rolled his eyes, clearly annoyed.

He strode forward, snatched the Human Emperor’s Pendant from Nalan Xuan’s hand without the slightest hesitation, and turned swiftly to leave, walking away with flair.

As Lu Chuan was about to depart from Azure Dragon Academy, Ye Chongshan hurriedly called out to him and rushed over in a panic.

“Lu Chuan, Ying Nu, she…”

“The senior’s wish has already been fulfilled.”

“That’s good, that’s good…

I’ll find a way to return to Luo City as soon as possible and reunite with her and our daughter.”

Seeing Ye Chongshan’s expression, Lu Chuan sighed softly.

“The senior also asked me to relay something.

She said she has no intention of continuing to involve herself in these pointless competitions.

She just wants to return to the Ye family and stay by Jiaxin’s side.

As for what choices you’ll make, that’s your own business.”

“Ying Nu truly said that?”

“Believe it or not, I’ve delivered the message.

If there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave.”

With that, Lu Chuan didn’t give Ye Chongshan any chance to ask further questions.

In a flash, his figure turned into a streak of light, speeding away along the mountain ridge.

Finally!

After so many delays and various twists and turns, Lu Chuan had finally acquired the Human Emperor’s Pendant.

At this moment, his emotions were surging, overflowing with excitement as he played with the pendant incessantly, utterly enamored.

In truth, the pendant’s abilities, while impressive, were of limited value to someone like Lu Chuan at the moment.

Though abilities such as resurrection and reversing Yin and Yang sounded mind-blowing, the conditions for actual usage were incredibly stringent.

What truly mattered was that the Human Emperor’s Pendant allowed Lu Chuan to locate the other two jade pendants.

With that thought, Lu Chuan didn’t hesitate for a second, channeling his spiritual power into the Human Emperor’s Pendant.

In a daze, he felt his Divine Sense transcend into the clouds, as if he were a deity, a divine figure overlooking the whole world.

Two beams of light gradually emerged in his vision.

One of the beams was in the direction of Penglai Immortal Domain, while the other surprised Lu Chuan.

“It’s actually in the Island Country?”

Moreover, upon closer inspection, the jade pendant’s location seemed to be near a volcano Lu Chuan had visited before—a place where a Nine Layers of Nascent Soul powerhouse had been sealed.

Lu Chuan furrowed his brows, his emotions conflicted.

Does it have to be this incredibly coincidental?

The locations of the jade pendants were both tied to sects that Lu Chuan wasn’t on good terms with.

Penglai Immortal Domain needed no further explanation.

Lu Chuan estimated he was likely on their most-wanted list after causing such a significant disturbance in the Immortal Domain and escaping unscathed.

Looking back over the decades, he was probably the only one who managed such a feat.

As for Grand Elder Huang Quan, Lu Chuan had clashed with him before.

The cost of Huang Quan’s avatar was tremendous, and Lu Chuan had utterly crushed its Divine Soul.

Even the Yin Ghost Sect, which Huang Quan had founded, had been left in ruins by Lu Chuan.

Needless to say, if the two enemies crossed paths again, sparks were sure to fly.

If the Earth Yin Jade Pendant was indeed in Grand Elder Huang Quan’s possession, there was bound to be a fierce battle.

Lu Chuan couldn’t possibly expect Huang Quan to sit down calmly and have a peaceful chat with him.

“Sigh…

weighing the pros and cons, it looks like I’ll have to make a trip to the Island Country first.”

At the very least, Lu Chuan knew who he’d be up against in the Island Country.

A Nine Layers of Nascent Soul adversary like Grand Elder Huang Quan would be tough, but there was still a chance.

However, if he went to Penglai Immortal Domain, Lu Chuan was genuinely concerned about whether he could escape alive.

That said, since he was heading overseas, Lu Chuan naturally needed to prepare thoroughly.

Besides, now that he had pinpointed the locations of both Heaven and Earth Twin Jades, he wasn’t in such a rush anymore.

With these thoughts in mind, Lu Chuan calmed himself down and returned to the Tang Family Ancestral Home.

Li Yingnu had not departed yet, though she was planning to set off in the coming days.

After all, her physical body had been completely reconstructed, and her strength had largely recovered.

At Nine Layers of Nascent Soul, a level comparable to Grand Elder Huang Quan, few in all of Qingyang and Luo City posed a threat to her.

“Senior, I have some good news for you.

If it’s convenient, may I come in?”

Outside, Lu Chuan knocked on the door.

Inside the room, Li Yingnu cast a glance toward the door.

Her eyes revealed a subtle, unnoticeable glimmer before she softly replied, “Come in.”

“Yes.”

Ever since his previous blunder, Lu Chuan had grown far more cautious about visiting Li Yingnu.

He was terrified of seeing something he shouldn’t, especially since he couldn’t help but admit—even his mother-in-law’s figure surpassed his wildest expectations.

Who could have imagined, with her angelic, refined face, that her figure was just as captivating and even rivaled Nalan Xuan’s?

Say what you will, his father-in-law really had impeccable taste.

Clearing his mind of all stray thoughts, Lu Chuan exhaled deeply and said, “Senior, Ye Chongshan has already been resurrected.”

“Mhm.”

As expected, her response was indifferent, her tone almost matching what Lu Chuan had anticipated.

Li Yingnu seemed completely unbothered by whether Ye Chongshan lived or died.

Surely it couldn’t be that the old couple’s relationship was already broken?

With that thought, Lu Chuan felt a headache coming on.

After experiencing countless hardships, the two finally had the chance to reunite.

His beloved Jiaxin could finally make up for her lost childhood.

If the old couple ended up divorcing now?

No, please don’t let that happen!

To prevent such an outcome, Lu Chuan decided to throw Ye Chongshan a lifeline.

“He also mentioned he’d find a way to leave Azure Dragon Academy as soon as possible and reunite with you and your daughter back at the Ye family estate.”

“Fine.

Whether he stays at Azure Dragon Academy or not is his choice; it has nothing to do with me.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan’s heart sank halfway.

This was bad.

They haven’t even met yet, and she’s already detached—saying it has nothing to do with me.

If they do meet up, wouldn’t she slap a divorce paper onto Ye Chongshan’s face, shredding their marriage certificate into pieces?

The mere thought of it horrified Lu Chuan.

But what could he do?

Issues between the old couple, emotional knots left in Li Yingnu’s heart over the years—only they themselves could untangle them.

Only the person who tied the proverbial knot could undo it.

With that realization, Lu Chuan sighed softly and prepared to leave.

Just then, Li Yingnu called out to him, catching him off guard.
