Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 842 - 842 802 Making People Envious

842: Chapter 802: Making People Envious 842: Chapter 802: Making People Envious Young Master Lu’s words left Yang Tianqi with no room for doubt.

When she claimed that Yang Tianqi was not a match for Lu Chuan, though he was initially surprised, he quickly realized that Nangong Lingya was not deceiving him.

Given Nangong Lingya’s status and position, it would be expected that she would be accompanied by many bodyguards when she traveled.

But since they had ascended the mountain, Yang Tianqi had not seen any bodyguards by Nangong Lingya’s side.

This meant that the bodyguards had been present initially, but they had been killed along the way.

As for the murderer.

He looked up at Lu Chuan and had his answer.

Therefore, whether it was Nangong Lingya’s words or the reality he had just realized, both told him that he should not fight Lu Chuan—if he did, his fate would certainly also be death.

He turned to look back at the charred corpse of his disciple and sighed helplessly.

His eyes were full of regret, as if he felt a great loss over the death of Zhao Kai.

Lu Chuan surveyed the martial arts tournament and continued to inquire, “This whole event is essentially a disciple selection assembly.

Isn’t it unnecessary to use the pretense of a martial arts tournament?”

Yang Tianqi gave an awkward smile, “There’s no helping it.

If it were a selection assembly, we would have many swordsmanship novices coming.

Among the people who climbed up the mountain today, there are hardly any novices.

They are all experts.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly before continuing, “But have you considered that by doing this, you’re also excluding young talents?

These are all aged swordsmen around here.

Even if you recruit them into your sect, they have reached their limits, with no potential left to tap.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Tianqi suddenly saw the light and hurriedly said, “Young Master Lu, your point is well taken.

After this martial arts tournament concludes, I will take a trip to Forest City and hold a proper selection assembly to select a group of promising newcomers to bring back!”

Lu Chuan scanned the surroundings once more and continued to ask, “What is the final reward for this martial arts tournament?”

Yang Tianqi turned to look at the wooden crate beside him and said, “It is a precious sword.

The quality is quite good, and it’s an enticing reward.”

“A precious sword, huh?

I’m not interested then.

Since that’s the case, I’ll be taking my leave now,” Lu Chuan replied.

Yang Tianqi could not sit still, he hurriedly approached, curiously asking, “You’re not interested in this precious sword?”

“The quality of this precious sword is very good.

Just take a look, and you’ll know whether the sword is good or bad,” he pressed.

Lu Chuan turned back to him, noting his confidence in the precious sword he had brought along, aware that it was a high-quality blade.

However, for Lu Chuan, any precious sword would pale in comparison to the Soul Terminating Sword on his back.

Not to speak of other qualities, just the foundational quality of being a top-grade immortal weapon would allow it to outshine all rivals.

Even across the entire Forest City, it would be impossible to find a second Immortal Artifact.

Lu Chuan shook his head indifferently, “No need.

I have a precious sword of excellent quality, so that’s why I’m not interested in yours.

Whether yours is good or bad doesn’t matter.

In any case, it won’t compare to the one on my back.”

At that moment, Nangong Lingya came over and spoke, “Young Master Lu, it seems Master Yang intends to gift you this precious sword as a token of friendship, to commemorate our good relations.

Should fate bring you to the Fiery Sword Sect someday, we’ll still be friends.”

Lu Chuan still shook his head, “I’ve already decided not to take it.

There’s no need.

Having it on me would just be a burden.”

Suddenly, Yang Tianqi turned back and walked towards the wooden crate.

He lifted his right foot and stomped down hard.

Bang!!!

Then, he took the precious sword out of the wooden crate.

“Bright Blade Sword, this is indeed a precious sword that is not found often.”

“Like other weapons and armaments, they are divided into mortal weapon, Spiritual Artifact, and Immortal Artifact.”

“And this one is an extremely rare fourth-grade Spiritual Artifact!”

“Such quality in the precious sword, throughout the entire Kunlun Domain, can be considered as upper-middle tier.”

“You really don’t plan to take a look?”

Thinking that Lu Chuan didn’t understand the intricacies involved, he detailed all the information about the Bright Blade Sword.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan still shook his head, “You know, a middle-grade Spiritual Artifact can be considered as upper-middle tier in the Kunlun Domain, but what about Immortal Artifacts?”

Yang Tianqi was stunned, and after pausing for a moment, he continued to ask, “Immortal Artifacts?

Why do you ask about that?

Immortal Artifacts are something that only the top powerhouses in the Kunlun Domain are qualified to possess.”

“We mortals should not even dream of getting our hands on one, let alone gazing upon or touching one.

It would be extremely fortunate to do so.”

“Immortal Artifacts, we shouldn’t even contemplate about weapons and equipment of that level, it’s too far-fetched.

To acquire a set of top-quality Spiritual Artifacts would already be quite impressive.”

Lu Chuan then shook his head, “I happen to have an immortal weapon precious sword on me, so I’m not interested in the sword you brought.

Why would I want to carry around an extra piece of scrap metal?”

Upon hearing this, Yang Tianqi took two steps back in shock, “The sword you have is an Immortal Artifact?

Did I hear you wrong?”

In an instant, everyone’s gaze converged on Lu Chuan.

Then, they shifted their attention to behind Lu Chuan, all staring at the precious sword on his back.

“This…

This is an Immortal Artifact?

It doesn’t look like one to me.”

“In my imagination, Immortal Artifacts are all gloriously luxurious treasures.

Who would have thought they could also appear so plain?”

“This brother actually has an Immortal Artifact in his possession?

That’s outrageous.

To think that on this broken mountaintop, I would witness an Immortal Artifact?

It just doesn’t seem real.”

“Is this real or fake?

Is that really an Immortal Artifact?

It doesn’t quite look like one to me, could it be a deception?”

Nangong Lingya quickly walked up, curiously gazing at Lu Chuan, “Do you really have an Immortal Artifact on you?

Let me appraise it.

My father has an Immortal Artifact, and I do have some understanding of them.”

Lu Chuan just shrugged his shoulders, “Let’s forget about it.

It’s not necessary.

I know it’s real, not fake.”

“An Immortal Artifact…

Such a level of precious sword is indeed rare, Young Master Lu.

It’s no wonder your strength is so formidable.”

Yang Tianqi sighed, his eyes fixed on the precious sword behind Lu Chuan, not moving away.

All the swordsmen present revered a high-quality precious sword more than their own lives.

For a moment, everyone’s gaze was locked on Lu Chuan; they were all eager to get a glimpse of the sword that remained sheathed.

Lu Chuan turned around to leave, planning to go back the way he came, to leave the mountain.

“Let’s go, Li Xunying.

It’s time for us to return.”

As Lu Chuan prepared to leave, Nangong Lingya quickly caught up to him.
