Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 156 - 156 154 I'm Here to Make a Scene_2

156: Chapter 154: I’m Here to Make a Scene_2 156: Chapter 154: I’m Here to Make a Scene_2 Lu Chuan also realized what was happening and his face instantly flushed with embarrassment.

The receptionist chuckled and said, “I understand, I understand.

Your room has been prepared, it’s 608, here is the key card.”

Mu Nanqing quickly took the bank card and the room key, and turned to glance at Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan immediately wanted to go upstairs.

At this moment, the receptionist called out to him, saying, “Sir, do you need a little umbrella?

They’re discounted if you buy now, twelve for a box, guaranteed to be enough.”

Lu Chuan coughed lightly twice and said, “No need, thank you.”

After that, he quickly made his way to the elevator.

The receptionist looked puzzled and muttered to himself, “They don’t want a little umbrella?

Are they not afraid of getting pregnant?”

Then, his eyes widened suddenly as if he had realized something and said with envy, “Damn, the young people these days are really wild!”

Lu Chuan took Mu Nanqing to their room and laid her on the bed.

Both their faces still held traces of embarrassment, neither daring to look at each other.

After a while, Lu Chuan took out an elixir pill and handed it to Mu Nanqing, saying, “Sister-in-law, take this, and your body will recover.”

Mu Nanqing took it without hesitation and directly popped the elixir pill into her mouth.

Indeed, in just a short while, Mu Nanqing felt her body’s condition improving, no longer feeling as powerless as when she had first awakened.

Only then did Lu Chuan ask Mu Nanqing why she had run off to Spring Water City.

Mu Nanqing recounted her and Su Ming’s experience to Lu Chuan, which was basically consistent with what Wang Shiya had said.

“Xiaochuan, Su Ming has suffered a lot to protect me along the way,” she said earnestly.

“He promised you he would protect me and that he’d lay down his life rather than let me be bullied.

If it weren’t for him, I might have already fallen into Hong Wu’s hands.

Now he’s in deep trouble, you must save him!”

Lu Chuan looked serious and said, “Don’t worry, sister-in-law, I won’t let anything happen to Su Ming.”

He hadn’t expected Su Ming to go to such lengths because of a promise he made.

Now that he truly acknowledged him as his little brother, he naturally couldn’t let anything happen to Su Ming.

Not wanting to waste time, he took out the Five Phases Divine Thunder Array Formation Array Plate and a jade bottle, handing them to Mu Nanqing, “Sister-in-law, there’s no time to lose.

I need to head to the Misty Rain Theater right away to check on Su Ming’s situation.

You wait for me in the hotel.

As soon as I rescue Su Ming, I will come straight back for you.”

“If you encounter any danger, drop the blood from this jade bottle onto this array plate; it will ensure your safety.”

Inside the jade bottle was Lu Chuan’s own blood.

As soon as it was dropped on the array plate, the Five Phases Divine Thunder Array would activate on its own.

Mu Nanqing nodded and said, “You also need to be careful, Hong Wu is not easy to deal with.”

Lu Chuan smiled and said, “Rest assured, sister-in-law, I always know what I’m doing.

Just wait here for me.”

Afterwards, he left the hotel.

On the roadside, Lu Chuan flagged down a taxi.

“Driver, to the Misty Rain Theater.”

The driver glanced at Lu Chuan in the rearview mirror and asked, “Are you also going to watch that Su Ming’s nine hundred and ninety-ninth battle?”

Lu Chuan grinned and said, “I’m going to crash the party.”

…

Misty Rain Theater.

This was a retro-style building with seven floors, each in the shape of a squared spiral.

The life-and-death fighting stage was right in the center void of the first floor.

At the moment, the Misty Rain Theater was packed with people, not just on the first floor, but also on the upper levels, with everyone pressing against the railings and looking down at the life-and-death fighting stage below.

Atop the life-and-death fighting stage.

Su Ming was covered in wounds; his face, arms, legs — all bore unhealed injuries.

His hair was disheveled, his breath was weak, and his eyes were filled with exhaustion.

One of his arms hung limp as if it had lost all sensation, immobile, while his other hand wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Even so, he still maintained a high fighting spirit, never retreating a single step.

Opposite him stood a middle-aged man with a powerful aura, named Yang Shan, Hong Wu’s top enforcer, whose strength had already reached the half-step into the Transcendent Realm.

Yang Shan looked at Su Ming with a cold smile and said, “Su Ming, you’re now as good as a dying man with one foot in the grave.

You’re no match for me.

Why don’t you just admit defeat?

Hand over the antidote, and I might spare your life.”

Su Ming cursed, “Stop your damn babbling, I have never conceded to anyone in my life.

Just make your move, and who knows, maybe I’ll win another round!”

Yang Shan snorted coldly, “You really are stubborn as a dead duck.

Since you’re courting death, don’t blame me for being impolite!”

With a swift step, he darted to Su Ming and struck down with a palm.

Su Ming hurriedly dodged.

Though he was already at the end of his strength, the previous battles having exhausted all his energy, he was after all a Peak Grade 9 and a disciple of the Profound Sect.

Even though Yang Shan was half a step into the Transcendent Realm, it was not so easy to kill him.

The two exchanged blows for dozens of rounds.

In the end, Su Ming still lost the fight.

His arm had broken, unable to unleash his full power, holding on for dozens of rounds was already at his limit.

Yang Shan landed a palm on Su Ming’s chest.

Su Ming flew backward, lying on the ground as fresh blood kept spewing from his mouth.

“Su Ming is done for!

Is he really going to lose in his nine hundred and ninety-ninth fight?”

“What a pity, I thought he might pull off a miracle.

Seems I was wrong.”

“Tsk tsk, with this loss, he’s a goner.

But to have fought so long without defeat is already admirable.”

…

The crowd buzzed with discussion.

Su Ming lay there looking up into the sky, somewhat dazed.

“Am I really going to die?”

“But my sister-in-law is still in a coma, and only I know where the antidote is.

If I die, what will become of her?”

“Big brother, I’m so sorry!”

“However, if the big brother is still alive, after finding sister-in-law, he should be able to easily wake her up, right?”

“Ah, I still talked about becoming an unparalleled master, living a life of chivalry and settling feuds with ease, now it seems I won’t get the chance…”

…

Yang Shan walked over, grabbed Su Ming’s neck, and lifted him off the ground.

“Su Ming, your time to die has come.

Have you any last words?”

A smile appeared on Su Ming’s face, and he said, “Before I die, can you call me ‘daddy’ to hear how it sounds?”

Yang Shan said angrily, “It seems you’re eager to die quickly!”

Having said this, the hand gripping Su Ming’s throat was about to tighten.

However, just then, an invisible force materialized, preventing him from exerting any strength.

He frowned and shouted, “Who’s there!”

A figure appeared on the platform.

“He wants to hear you call him ‘daddy.’ Do as he says, and I’ll spare your life.”

Yang Shan turned his head to look and saw that the newcomer was a young man about Su Ming’s age.

Upon hearing this voice, Su Ming was immediately stunned, then, using his last bit of strength, he turned to look.

When he saw who it was, his eyes instantly filled with tears, and he burst into tears.

“Big brother!!!”
