Lu Chuan said with a smile, “Who would have thought that Miaomiao and her brother might actually end up together.”

Situ Qinghuan looked puzzled and asked, “Why do you say that?

Patriarch Sun is very certain that Miaomiao is his daughter, isn’t he?”

Lu Chuan glanced at Situ Qinghuan and said, “Didn’t you understand?

It’s true that Miss Miaomiao is his daughter, but it’s very likely that his son is not his own.”

After pondering for a moment, Situ Qinghuan thought of Sun Qinglian saying that his daughter greatly resembled his best buddy.

She quickly caught on and said with wide eyes, “Can it really be like that…”

Lu Chuan said with a chuckle, “It’s all standard procedure.”

Situ Qinghuan suddenly put on a stern face, glared at Lu Chuan, and said, “I can’t control other people’s business, but you have to give me an explanation for forcibly kissing me!”

On hearing this, Lu Chuan quickly said, “You can’t blame me for that; I was just eager to save someone.

Besides, it was you who wanted us to pretend to be siblings, not me forcing you.”

Situ Qinghuan, with a face full of anger, gritted her teeth and said, “You…

How can you be so shameless!”

Feeling somewhat guilty, Lu Chuan said, “Alright, alright, since you say so, I’ll make it up to you.

This has to be okay, right?”

Situ Qinghuan asked with annoyance, “And how do you plan to make it up to me?”

Lu Chuan said, “I’ll let you forcefully kiss me in return.

This has to be okay, right?”

Situ Qinghuan’s eyes went round with fury, looking like she could tear Lu Chuan apart then and there, and she roared, “What kind of compensation is that!”

Lu Chuan revealed a mischievous grin and said, “Isn’t it fair?

You’re not losing out.”

Situ Qinghuan clenched her fist, gnashing her teeth as she shouted, “You’re looking for death!”

Then she swung her fist at Lu Chuan.

Being a Sect Master, she had never lost her composure like this before.

Seeing her reaction, Lu Chuan quickly took off, making a face at Situ Qinghuan and saying, “If you catch me, I’ll let you kiss me!”

“Ah!!!!!” Situ Qinghuan completely flew off the handle, “Lu Chuan, I swear I won’t rest until I kill you!”

…

Two days later.

In a dense forest on the outskirts.

Lu Chuan was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his body radiating a bright golden light, sending a vast momentum all around, forcing Situ Qinghuan to run off into the distance.

It was not until she was hundreds of meters away that she could finally catch her breath.

“Although this guy’s realm is clearly only at Profound Realm Level 9, the power and momentum he exhibits is even beyond that of a Beginner Saint.

Could it be, he is the Cultivator our elders spoke of?” Situ Qinghuan pondered silently to herself.

After a while, the golden light around Lu Chuan receded, and the momentum dissipated, returning tranquility to the forest.

Lu Chuan opened his eyes, an excited smile on his face.

He had successfully reached the Golden Core Perfection Phase, his strength reaching a new level.

But that was secondary; what mattered more was that after reaching this realm, he could consider breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

In the Cultivation World, the Nascent Soul Realm was considered among the ranks of the powerful, not to mention in these days where Spiritual Energy was scarce and everyone pursued the Martial Path in the End of Sects and Magic Era.

Once he broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he would no longer be as embarrassed as before when facing troublemakers like Tu Youming and Xiu Niang.

And with the increase in strength, he would also have an opportunity to make another trip to the Island Country to settle the grudge between Yun Zhongzi and Grand Elder Huang Quan.

This led Lu Chuan to feel somewhat puzzled.

Theoretically, the End of Sects and Magic Era should make the appearance of Cultivators as rare as winning the lottery.

He only managed to get to where he was today by relying on the legacy left by his grandfather.

But he had still encountered Cultivators like Grand Elder Huang Quan, Tu Youming, and Xiu Niang.

Of course, it was certain that while they were Cultivators, they did not belong to this era.

Their strength was solely due to cultivation during times when Spiritual Energy was abundant.

After the End of Sects and Magic Era arrived, their realms halted, never to advance again.

That was exactly what puzzled Lu Chuan.

If the arrival of the End of Sects and Magic Era only meant that cultivation would stagnate, rather than bring about disastrous impacts, then the Cultivators of the past should still exist on Earth, instead of being rare as hen’s teeth as they are now.

Although the likes of Grand Elder Huang Quan, Tu Youming, and Xiu Niang were powerful, they were merely in the Nascent Soul Realm.

If they could survive in this world, it made no sense that stronger Cultivators would leave no trace on Earth, which seemed unreasonable.

“Could it be that Grand Elder Huang Quan and the others were not originally in the Nascent Soul Realm, and it was the arrival of the End of Sects and Magic Era that caused their strength to regress to the Nascent Soul Realm?”

“Could that mean that the present Earth can only accommodate Cultivators up to the Nascent Soul Realm, and any attempt to advance further would be restricted by the laws of heaven and earth, making a breakthrough impossible?”

“Still, even so, the path of cultivation shouldn’t have ceased on Earth.

The Cultivators I’ve encountered so far are few and far between, which is quite strange.”

Lu Chuan pondered for a while, felt he was at a dead end, and decided to stop thinking about it.

He was having these doubts now, perhaps because his strength was not sufficient.

Maybe once he truly broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he would be able to understand what today’s world was truly like.

Lu Chuan stood up, approached Situ Qinghuan, and said with a smile, “Let’s go take down that fake Sect Master.”

Situ Qinghuan nodded without a word; after all, their master was still in their hands, and this matter was urgent.

The two headed towards Profound Sect, soon disappearing into the forest.

At the foot of Profound Sect Mountain.

A platform had been set up there, and many Profound Sect disciples were patrolling nearby.

“Do you think that Lu Chuan will really come?”

“In my opinion, he’ll definitely become a shrinking turtle.

Even if he killed the Great Elder, there’s no way he could be a match for the Sect Master.

If he dares to come, he’s only walking a path to his death.”

“There’s no doubt about that.

Our Sect Master is the strongest in the Profound Sect.

It’s not someone everyone can challenge.

If Lu Chuan truly dares to come, the Sect Master will surely avenge the Great Elder!”

…

Guan Qiyun and Guan Luoxue are also among the patrolling group at this moment.

Guan Qiyun’s face is full of frustration.

He had never expected that Zeng Aniu, who joined the Profound Sect with them, was actually his idol Lu Chuan.

If he had known Zeng Aniu was Lu Chuan at the time, he would definitely have asked for an autograph from Lu Chuan and wholeheartedly helped him with whatever he wanted to do secretly in the Profound Sect.

But he could never have imagined that his revered idol would be tricked by his own sister.

Now, because of Guan Luoxue, he must have ended up on Lu Chuan’s blacklist.

Not only had he lost the favor of his idol, but he had also become a thorn in his idol’s side.

Anyone would be frustrated by this.

Guan Luoxue looked at Guan Qiyun with some guilt and said, “Brother, stop thinking about it.

How was I supposed to know that detestable Zeng Aniu was Lu Chuan?

Moreover, we are now disciples of the Profound Sect, and Lu Chuan is the enemy of the Sect.

How can you idolize an enemy?

Look at it this way, the Sect gave me so many rewards because I reported Lu Chuan.

Just be happy for me, will you?”

Guan Qiyun looked at Guan Luoxue somewhat speechlessly and said, “The reason I brought you to join the Profound Sect was that the Shen family’s quota for disciples this year was already full and I was already almost past the prime age for learning martial arts, so I had to come here to practice martial arts.”

“Although my idol doesn’t get along with the Profound Sect, the Sect must have its own reasons for being the preeminent sect in the martial arts world.

I was focused solely on the pursuit of martial arts and didn’t care about these matters.”

“But you shouldn’t make me a traitor in the eyes of my idol!”

Guan Luoxue said with a dissatisfied face, “You keep calling him your ‘idol’ and it’s getting on my nerves.

What’s so good about that guy that you have to idolize him anyway?”

“Now, the Sect Master has set up the arena here for several days, waiting for that Lu Chuan to come and settle the score.

But he’s hiding like a shrinking turtle, not daring to show up, and he even kidnapped the Sect Master’s wife.

Someone like him has no right to be anyone’s idol!”

Guan Qiyun immediately bristled at these words and retorted, “You’re talking nonsense!

My idol is merely preparing and is not some shrinking turtle.

He alone is being awaited by the entire Profound Sect here.

His not rushing here blindly only shows that he is thoughtful and thorough.

Once he is ready, he will naturally appear!”

Guan Luoxue looked at him, speechless, and said, “Brother, I really think you’re delusional to defend such a coward.

In my eyes, he simply doesn’t dare to come.

No matter how much he prepares, he will never accept the Sect Master’s challenge.

If he truly comes, I’ll eat shit!”

No sooner had she said this than a figure descended from the sky with a bang, landing on the arena.

All the patrolling disciples of the Profound Sect were startled.

Upon seeing the newcomer’s appearance, they all shouted in amazement.

“Lu Chuan!

It’s Lu Chuan!

Quickly go inform the Sect Master and the elders!”

Guan Luoxue was dumbfounded, “He…

he…

how come he came right after I said it?

He must be doing this to spite me!”

Guan Qiyun was excited and said, “I knew my idol was not a shrinking turtle!”

Then he looked at Guan Luoxue, his face revealing a hint of chill, and said, “Luoxue, our father has taught us since we were young, that we must stand by our words!”

Guan Luoxue felt a sudden pang of alarm and said, “What…

what do you mean?”

Guan Qiyun pointed to a pile of horse dung not far away and said, “You said just now if my idol came, you would eat shit directly.

Now it’s time to keep your promise!”

Guan Luoxue’s face turned red with rage and she yelled, “That was just an offhand remark!”

Guan Qiyun said, “I took it seriously!”

After that, he grabbed Guan Luoxue and walked toward the pile of horse dung.

Guan Luoxue struggled frantically, her face full of terror, and shouted, “Are you really my brother?

What kind of brother makes his sister eat shit!”

Guan Qiyun said gravely, “Precisely because I’m your real brother, I should be teaching you to stand by your words.

Luoxue, this is for your own good!”

Guan Luoxue, beside herself with rage, exclaimed, “You think you’re doing me a favor by making me eat shit?

Why don’t you eat it yourself?”

Guan Qiyun said, “If you eat shit, people will just think you’re crazy.

If I eat it with you, people will think our entire Guan family likes to eat shit, which would bring shame to our family.

So, it’s better you do it alone.”

Guan Luoxue burst into tears, “I know I was wrong, brother, please forgive me.

From now on, I’ll never bad-mouth your idol again, waaa…”

Guan Qiyun finally relented and let go of Guan Luoxue.

On the other side, shortly after Lu Chuan appeared on the arena, Lu Xuan, accompanied by the four Great Elders and a group of elite disciples from the Profound Sect, arrived.

Lu Xuan, seeing Lu Chuan on the arena, revealed a cold smile and said, “Is this the man who killed the Great Elder?

It seems the Great Elder was not so formidable after all.”

The four Great Elders had no argument to offer, thinking to themselves that while it was fine to belittle Lu Chuan, it was unnecessary to involve the Great Elder.

By disparaging the Great Elder, wasn’t he essentially disparaging them as well?

Lu Xuan wasn’t concerned with the feelings of the four Great Elders.

He leapt onto the stage and, after giving Lu Chuan a glance, said coldly, “So you’re Lu Chuan?

A mere nobody like you dares to accept my challenge?

You must be quite bold!”

Lu Chuan smiled and responded, “I was just curious about what kind of a fraud you are.

Now that I’ve seen you, I realize you’re not much after all.”

Lu Xuan’s aura suddenly turned icy as he said curtly, “Arrogant fool.

You better start thinking about how you’ll beg for mercy from me later!”

After saying this, he charged swiftly toward Lu Chuan.

Elder Wind watched the scene and murmured, “Although Lu Chuan killed the Great Elder and his strength is extraordinary, he is still not quite on the level of the current Sect Master.

Their auras alone are not in the same league.

It seems today’s duel will have no suspense.”

The other elders also nodded in agreement.

However, they saw Lu Chuan’s lips curl into an excited smile as the power of Golden Core Perfection erupted from him, causing cracks to form on the ground of the arena.

The aura released by Lu Xuan was suddenly suppressed.

Seeing this, the expressions of the four Great Elders changed dramatically, and Elder Wind exclaimed, “How…

how powerful!”
