Chapter 427 - 427 408 Do You Believe It Now_1

427: Chapter 408: Do You Believe It Now?_1 427: Chapter 408: Do You Believe It Now?_1 Muh Jianfeng looked at Lu Chuan with a cold gaze and said, “Little sister, come here quickly, this guy is the one who is going to replace Luo Xingchen and represent the Luo family, you’ve been deceived by him!

I saw him just now trying to take liberties with you.

Don’t worry, today I will definitely teach him a lesson for you!”

Muh Yuqing was frantic with anger and thought to herself, it wasn’t him trying to take liberties with me, I was the one who wanted to take liberties with him, alright?

You stinky brother, I was about to kiss him when you ruined it, I’m so pissed!

She explained, “Ah, you’ve got it all wrong, I knew his identity.

It was me who took the initiative to ask him out to play.

He didn’t take liberties with me.

Go away, don’t cause me any more trouble here!”

Muh Jianfeng frowned, “You know his identity?”

Then he remembered Muh Yuqing asking him about his weakness the night before, and a possibility immediately flashed through his mind.

His face showed an expression of disbelief as he murmured, “So that’s how it is…”

Looking at Muh Yuqing, he asked, “You came to ask about my weakness, was it this guy’s idea?

Little sister, I love you so much, yet I didn’t expect you to conspire with an outsider to trap me.

You really are a good sister!”

Muh Yuqing became anxious and said, “Brother, it’s not what you think…”

It wasn’t Lu Chuan who instructed me to ask, it was me who wanted to trap you…

Muh Jianfeng snorted coldly, his face filled with heartache as he exclaimed, “It’s not what it isn’t, little sister, you really disappoint me!”

Looking at Lu Chuan with a gloomy expression, he said, “I wondered why the Luo family would suddenly change their fighter at the last moment.

It turns out they swapped in a guy as despicable, sinister, and cunning as you.

My little sister is young and naive, easy to fool, and you probably targeted this, secretly confounding her, instructing her to ask for my weakness, so you could target it in the martial arts competition and win, right?”

“Your Luo family really stops at nothing just to win!”

Lu Chuan, looking helpless, said, “Uh…

would you believe me if I said I never had such thoughts?”

Muh Jianfeng snorted again and said, “Save your excuses!

If it weren’t for your seduction, would she come to ask me about my weakness?

Are you also going to say it was my little sister who took the initiative to tell you?”

You actually guessed right…

Lu Chuan shrugged and replied, “I really don’t need to ask about your weakness.”

“Brother!” Muh Yuqing said with a face full of shame and guilt, “Indeed, I was the one who asked about your weakness and then told him.

It has nothing to do with him, don’t trouble him any further.”

Muh Jianfeng said, “Little sister, you’ve been badly influenced by this guy.

Don’t worry, I will definitely expose his true face and make you come to your senses!”

He looked at Lu Chuan and said, “You Luo family stop at nothing to win.

This martial arts competition has already lost its original meaning.

I will announce this matter to the entire city, so everyone knows the ugly face of your Luo family!”

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan immediately said, “Whether you believe it or not, I really don’t need to do such things.

Even without knowing your weakness, I can easily defeat you.”

Muh Jianfeng scoffed and said, “Stop making excuses.

If you really had that strength, why would you resort to such vile tactics?”

Muh Yuqing, beside them, was stomping her feet in anxiety, almost wanting to bang her head and die.

She couldn’t understand why she was so foolish to have caused such a mess.

Not only had she tarnished Lu Chuan’s name, but she had also hurt her own brother’s heart.

She felt there was no one more stupid than herself in this world.

Lu Chuan sighed, knowing he must do something.

If Muh Jianfeng really spread this matter, he would forget about getting the Soul Herb.

Thus, he looked at Muh Jianfeng and said, “If you don’t believe me, we can have a match right now.”

Muh Jianfeng narrowed his eyes at the words and replied, “I had the same thought.

I wanted to lay hands on you the moment you touched my sister’s hand.

Since you’re asking for it, don’t blame me for being impolite!”

As soon as his words fell, he unleashed all his power, rushing towards Lu Chuan.

“You should know I’ve broken through to Profound Realm Level 2.

I want to see what capabilities you have to make such a bold claim!”

The imposing aura of Profound Realm Level 2 rolled towards Lu Chuan like a tide, darkening the surrounding sky significantly.

Passersby were so frightened that they trembled and their legs went soft; they were almost wetting their pants.

Lu Chuan remained calm, just as he had faced Luo Xingchen.

In the blink of an eye, Muh Jianfeng had reached Lu Chuan and extended his palm to strike Lu Chuan’s chest.

Lu Chuan didn’t even intend to receive that palm.

He turned around with a spinning kick, aiming it at Muh Jianfeng’s waist.

Muh Jianfeng’s face changed dramatically.

The moment Lu Chuan unleashed his power, he felt a whiff of lethal danger, and with his opponent’s speed being many times faster than his, he had no choice but retract his palm, hastily blocking Lu Chuan’s move.

Lu Chuan’s leg struck Muh Jianfeng’s elbow, and a powerful shockwave appeared instantly.

Bang!

Muh Jianfeng’s body was sent flying, crashing down dozens of meters away.

He got up from the ground with a grave expression and looked at Lu Chuan with fear in his eyes.

Only then did he realize that Lu Chuan had not deceived him.

Moreover, Lu Chuan had clearly held back just now.

If the guy had used his full strength, he would have been dead with just that one kick.

This guy’s strength was unfathomable; he was far beyond his own Profound Realm Level 2!

But if what this guy said was true, then didn’t it mean that his little sister had actually gone as far as to tell others his own weaknesses?

He turned his head to look at Muh Yuqing, showing an incredulous expression.

Muh Yuqing, with a guilty face, quickly lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers, not daring to meet Muh Jianfeng’s gaze.

“Do you believe me now?” Lu Chuan spoke indifferently.

Muh Jianfeng was visibly calmer, took a deep breath, then walked back in front of Lu Chuan and said, “I was impulsive.

Your strength truly does not necessitate such underhanded methods.”

After saying this, he turned his head and glared at Muh Yuqing again.

Muh Yuqing hurriedly said, “Brother, this is all my fault.

How about I treat you to a meal…”

“Shut your mouth!” Muh Jianfeng shouted angrily.

He glanced at Lu Chuan again and said, “I need to go back and handle some family matters.

I won’t bother you any further.

As for the martial arts competition…

I ask for your compassion later on, so I don’t lose too disgracefully.”

After finishing his words, he grabbed Muh Yuqing and said, “Come back home with me!”

“Brother, be gentle, I’m your own sister!” Muh Yuqing’s face was full of grievance, but she dared not resist.

“I don’t have a sister like you!” Muh Jianfeng shouted angrily.

Lu Chuan watched the siblings walk away and sighed helplessly.

He didn’t take it too personally though, after all, beating Muh Jianfeng now wasn’t much different from defeating him in the martial arts competition.

As long as it didn’t affect him getting the Soul Herb.

…

Nighttime.

The Muh family residence.

In a large hall, Family Head Muh Liancheng’s face was sullen, holding a disciplinary ruler in his hand, his chest heaving with anger.

Muh Jianfeng and his mother, Shen Rong, stood by, not daring to speak.

Kneeling on the floor, Muh Yuqing’s face was full of grievance.

With teary eyes, she said, “Lu Chuan saved my life; I just wanted to repay him.

I heard he was going to compete with my brother in martial arts, and I thought since our Muh family has won for two consecutive years, losing once wouldn’t matter much, so I told Lu Chuan my brother’s weakness.

Moreover, Lu Chuan didn’t need me to tell him anything, my brother is no match for him…”

“That’s no excuse for you to betray your own brother!” Muh Liancheng, veins throbbing on his forehead with fury, grabbed Muh Yuqing’s hand and swung the disciplinary ruler down hard.

With a loud snap.

Muh Yuqing burst into loud sobs, tears dripping onto the floor, clearly in real pain.

“Do you realize your mistake now?” Muh Liancheng roared.

Biting her lip, Muh Yuqing said, “I’m not wrong!

I just wanted to help Lu Chuan!”

Muh Liancheng, infuriated, struck Muh Yuqing several more times, “Say that again for me!”

Muh Yuqing, stubborn, said, “I just wanted to help Lu Chuan!”

Muh Liancheng wanted to continue hitting her.

At that moment, Shen Rong stepped in to stop Muh Liancheng, saying, “Enough, a few hits will suffice.

She’s still young, and she did it out of gratitude since Lu Chuan truly saved her life.

Don’t be too hard on her.”

Muh Liancheng retorted irritably, “Gratitude?

Even if she was trying to repay a debt, she shouldn’t betray her own brother!”

Shen Rong quickly said, “Alright, calm down.

Rather than getting angry here, we should think more about the martial arts competition.”

She turned her head to Muh Jianfeng and asked, “Son, are you really no match for Lu Chuan?”

Muh Jianfeng, with a grave expression, said, “I can’t last a single move against him, and that’s with him holding back.”

Shen Rong frowned and sighed, “If it were any other time, it wouldn’t matter if we lost, but you’ve severely damaged your soul trying to break through to Profound Realm Level 2.

If you don’t get that Soul Herb, it will leave a great hidden danger, and your strength might not improve any further.

What should we do?”

While crying bitterly, Muh Yuqing suddenly froze when she heard this, quickly got up, and asked, “Mom, brother’s soul has been severely damaged?”

Shen Rong nodded and said, “Yes, the reason your father is so angry is that this competition is crucial for your brother.

Only by winning can he get the Luo family’s Soul Herb to heal his soul; otherwise, he might never make any further progress in his life.”

Muh Yuqing looked at Muh Jianfeng, regret washing over her as she said, “Brother, I didn’t know you were in such trouble.

I thought it was just an ordinary competition, that’s why I secretly told Lu Chuan your weakness.”

Muh Jianfeng patted Muh Yuqing’s head and smiled, “It’s okay, I don’t blame you.

Even if you hadn’t told Lu Chuan my weakness, I would have been certain to lose.

You’re not responsible for this; maybe it’s just my fate.”

“Seeing you as a sister, your brother truly has eight lifetimes of bad luck,” Muh Liancheng glared at Muh Yuqing and said with irritation.

Muh Yuqing shrank her neck, eyeing the disciplinary ruler in Muh Liancheng’s hand, not daring to retort.

Muh Liancheng turned to Muh Jianfeng and said, “If there’s really no way to win the competition, then I’ll go talk to Luo Zhenhua myself.

I’ll buy the Soul Herb at any cost; I will not let your life come to a halt here.”

Muh Jianfeng hurriedly said, “Dad, the Muh family and the Luo family have always been at odds.

If you go to the Luo family, they probably won’t give you a warm welcome and might even make things difficult.

Let’s think of another solution.”

Muh Liancheng said, “I can endure being made difficulties of.

Luo Zhenhua, that bastard, probably has been wanting to humiliate me for a while.

If he gets this chance, he will likely try to disgrace me.

I’ve fought with him for so many years and know his character well enough; as long as it satisfies him mentally, he should agree to give me the Soul Herb.”

That’s when Muh Yuqing suddenly said, “Dad, you don’t have to grovel to the Luo family head.

I have a way to get the Soul Herb for my brother!”

The family all looked at Muh Yuqing.

With some guilt, Muh Yuqing said, “I did something to hurt my brother, so it’s only right that I should be the one to obtain the Soul Herb.”

She looked at Muh Jianfeng and said, “Brother, don’t worry.

I will definitely get the Soul Herb to heal your soul for you!”

Muh Jianfeng quickly asked, “What’s your plan to get the Soul Herb?”

Muh Liancheng and Shen Rong also looked at Muh Yuqing, curious about what this young girl could think of.

Muh Yuqing suddenly blushed and said, “Oh, never mind the plan.

Just trust that I will get you the Soul Herb.”

She thought, since the Luo family would win the competition, the Soul Herb would surely end up with Lu Chuan.

If she begged Lu Chuan, there was a high chance of persuading him to give her the Soul Herb.

However, she was also aware that Lu Chuan might not grant her request, so she had in mind a sincere yet simple stratagem to acquire the Soul Herb, and that was…

to use her charm!

Of course, such a scheme was something she couldn’t let her family know about…
