Chapter 141: Chapter 141: Before the Duel_1
At the Lin Villa, just like Xu Nanzhi, someone else who couldn’t sleep was Lin Chuxue. She had seen the news about the duel of life and death scheduled for the next day. Even though Su Chengyu hadn’t officially accepted the challenge yet, Lin Chuxue firmly believed that Su Chengyu would certainly show up tomorrow.
"You smelly man, if you lose tomorrow, you’re going to die," she mused.
After spending so much time with Su Chengyu recently, even though she prided herself on being tough, she couldn’t deceive her own heart. This man, whom she once despised and hated immensely, had left an imprint in her heart.
Thus, even seeing Su Chengyu standing with Lin Chu Yin and saying just a few words made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
Whether she should go to the duel tomorrow was a dilemma for Lin Chuxue.
If Su Chengyu were to lose and die on the spot, she didn’t know what she would do. But if she didn’t go to watch, she would feel regret. So, she was bound to have a sleepless night.
The night passed quickly, and the morning sun rose. This was a day that many people in Linjiang were eagerly awaiting.
The duel to the death between the fifth and sixth-ranked masters on the Linjiang leaderboard was too tantalizing to be missed.
Su Chengyu was up early, having breakfast with Su Xiaoxiao. The duel was scheduled for twelve noon, and there were still four hours left.
"Brother, shall we go to the gym now?" asked Su Xiaoxiao.
"There’s no rush. Let’s go pay our respects at grandpa’s grave first," replied Su Chengyu.
"Alright!"
After being released from prison, Su Chengyu hadn’t yet visited his grandfather Su Beiming’s grave. It wasn’t that he was unfilial, but because he believed that he had been living in disgrace. He hadn’t reclaimed his legacy or obtained the Wind, Moon, Flowers, and Birds Painting and hadn’t made a name for himself. He was too ashamed to visit the grave.
But today was an extremely important day for him.
After today’s battle, if he emerged alive, his name would resound throughout Linjiang. But if he died, he would quickly fade into obscurity, and soon few people would remember him.
So Su Chengyu chose this day to pay respects at his grandpa’s grave.
Su Chengyu and Su Xiaoxiao bought some fresh flowers and headed to the cemetery.
"Grandpa, your unfilial grandson is here to see you."
Su Chengyu knelt before the grave, imagining his grandfather’s gentle face. He had never experienced the love of a mother or father; his only relatives were his grandfather and Su Xiaoxiao. This familial affection was precious!
Thinking back, Su Chengyu guessed his grandfather must have been an extraordinary person but wondered why he had chosen to live a normal life under an alias in Linjiang.
"Grandpa, big brother is now incredible. If you could see him from the netherworld, you’d be happy," Su Xiaoxiao also knelt down.
At the Linjiang Sports Gymnasium, Fang Qing personally led the team, cooperating with the gym’s operating company, to implement controls. The gym’s operating company didn’t publicly sell tickets for the duel, but instead invited influential Linjiang figures through donations.
Nonetheless, with the fight’s high popularity and many eager to watch without tickets, people had to ask the police for help. They had to control the situation – numerous people had already rushed to the gym early.
By eleven o’clock, audience members with tickets began to arrive at the gymnasium, getting their tickets checked before entering. Fang Qing remained at the gym’s entrance, restless.
Up until now, Su Chengyu hadn’t responded to the challenge, and Fang Qing just hoped for a miracle, that Su Chengyu wouldn’t show up!
Xu Nanzhi couldn’t make it to the venue and had to wait for Liu Yan, who was at the scene, to send her updates.
Hong Zhen Ting had asked Xu Nanzhi if she wanted to watch the match live that morning and offered her a ticket. Still, Xu Nanzhi, as always, showed no interest.
In the Lin Villa, Lin Huanfeng knocked on the door and said, "Sis, we’re leaving. Are you coming or not?"
Lin Chuxue opened the room door, not responding to Lin Huanfeng, but her body was very truthful. She had already changed her clothes and walked downstairs directly.
"What are you dawdling about? Hurry up and get in the car!" Lin Zhiyuan urged.
The Lin family mobilised everyone, even Lin Chuxue’s mother joined them.
Lin Zhihua also managed to get tickets, leading his whole family straight to the sports gymnasium.
The Zhou family also set off, with Zhou Jinping bringing his girlfriend Han Lin. Han Lin originally looked down on Su Chengyu, but now, she realized how short-sighted she had been.
Zhou Jinping gave Deng Yunbo a ticket. Therefore, Deng Yunbo rushed over as well.
Xu Lingshan brought his wife to the Sports Gymnasium, almost at the same time as Zhou Chaoming. Both men exchanged greetings and entered the sports gymnasium together.
Liu Yan also managed to get hold of several tickets through her connections, bringing along staff from the bar who had known Su Chengyu.
"I really didn’t expect it. The person ranked fifth amongst Linjiang’s top ten masters actually worked at our bar. He was our colleague, this is utterly unbelievable."
"Isn’t it? I told my friends yesterday, but they didn’t believe me. Once we get in, I have to take more videos and post them to my circle of friends."
Liu Yan took a deep breath and led her staff into the sports gymnasium.
Things were quite miserable for the Jiang family and the Chen family. Their tough days had served to publicly disclose the identity of Su Chengyu, bringing to light all the past issues.
They were both extremely unwelcomed, as no one wished to offend a top five master and opt to favour the Jiang family and the Chen family instead, hence the connections with them ended.
Chen Jun had to exert a lot of effort and resources, spend some money to get three tickets from the black market. He gave one to Jiang Yuyan, he himself and Chen Boyong went to the sports gymnasium together.
Chen Jun’s injury wasn’t fully healed, he was still using a cane to walk.
"I hope that Su Chengyu, this damned bastard, will be beaten to death by Hou Congsheng today. Otherwise, our two families will never see the light of day!" Chen Jun sat down and said this through gritted teeth to Jiang Yuyan.
"I also hope that he dies quickly!"
Regret filled the heart of Jiang Yuyan, yet there were no antidotes for regret, so she could only pray for the downfall of Su Chengyu.
Apart from these people, everyone from the Linjiang’s top ten masters list, except for the top three, showed up.
Li Yuancang also went and took a seat in the sports gymnasium. His appearance caused a stir, much to Li Yuancang’s satisfaction, and he quietly mocked Su Chengyu, "Did you see that? The moment I appeared, so many people in the audience recognized me because of my looks! You actually dared to say that I am from a hair salon!"
The Linjiang Dragon Soul Trust had also sent representatives, with chief minister Ma, Zeng Yifan, leading two Si Masters to the sports gymnasium.
Many people were sitting in the huge sports gymnasium, almost everyone who should be there was in attendance.
Meanwhile, Hou Congsheng, one of the main character, also walked into the sports gymnasium under everyone’s attentive gaze.
"Master Hou is here!"
The sports gymnasium immediately buzzed with excitement.
Hou Congsheng, dressed in a black training suit, radiated an imposing aura. After greeting the four corners of the gymnasium, he sat cross-legged in the center of the gymnasium.
Hou Congsheng did not open a martial arts school in Linjiang, instead he opened a trading company and took a few disciples, all of whom had already arrived.
Zhang Xiaomo and the others also arrived early at the sports gymnasium. Seeing everyone entering and the fact that it was almost noon, but Su Chengyu had yet to appear, they all began to worry.
