Chapter 557: Chapter 557: There’s a Beauty_1

"So, come with me to the Zhuo family’s estate. I guarantee you won’t be treated badly." Zhuo Kun said.

Su Chengyu shook his head, "Not interested. If you have medicinal ingredients, have them delivered here for our face-to-face transaction. If not, let’s not waste each other’s time by talking more."

Zhuo Kun, hearing this, was displeased. "You have offended Jin Pengju earlier. The Jin family is interested in your martial arts secret manual, they are bound to make a move against you! Without the Zhuo family’s protection, once you leave the convention center, you’d be walking straight into a trap. Young man, don’t be greedy. Life is more important than a martial arts secret manual."

"My safety does not require the protection of others," Su Chengyu stated.

Seeing Su Chengyu was unmoved, Zhuo Kun gave up. As a member of Danyang’s first martial arts family and the main sponsor of the trade fair, Zhuo Kun couldn’t threaten Su Chengyu publicly. But inside, he was harboring evil intentions.

Zhuo Kun moved aside to call and report the situation to his older brother, Zhuo Qian.

Upon hearing it was an intermediate martial arts manual of the Earth rank, Zhuo Qian immediately decided, "I’ll send someone over with the medicinal ingredients right away. We must get one of the secret manuals first, and under no circumstances should the other one fall into anyone else’s hands. You decide what needs to be done."

"Understood!"

After hanging up, Zhuo Kun patiently waited beside Su Chengyu’s spot. On the other hand, Jin Pengju was also on the phone with his father, Jin Zhenghao.

Jin Zhenghao was excited when he heard about the two Earth-rank, intermediate level martial arts manuals.

"The Zhuo family is bound to get their hands on them. Other families will also be competing for them once they hear about this, this won’t be easy to handle. We need to strategize!" Jin Zhenghao said.

Jin Pengju lowered his voice, "The Zhuo family won’t be able to gather six thousand-year-old medicinal ingredients. They could only trade for one manual at most. Then, wait for the kid to leave the convention center to take action. Our only chance is to wait patiently."

"I’ll consult with the family elders immediately. Regardless of the cost, we have to obtain those manuals," Jin Zhenghao stated.

All the conversations Zhuo Kun and Jin Pengju had on their phones were heard clearly by Su Chengyu’s Divine Sense. Both are formidable contenders in Danyang, one being the top family and the other being a first-rate family.

If these two families tried to forcibly take the manuals by force, it could be problematic.

Jin Pengju ordered his men to keep watch near the booth. He went off to stroll around the convention center and came across Lin Chuxue, who was collecting medicinal ingredients. He was taken by surprise.

"There’s such a beauty at the convention? Her beauty and grace are on par with Danyang’s number one beauty, Shen Junru," he marveled.

From the moment Jin Pengju laid eyes on Lin Chuxue, he was captivated, and approached her.

"Hello, I am Jin Pengju from the prestigious Jin martial arts family in Danyang. It’s my good fortune to meet such a stunning beauty today. I would love to make your acquaintance."

Confident in his looks, family background, and talent, Jin Pengju may not be considered the top in the younger generation in Danyang but he’s definitely among the best.

Jin Pengju extracted his gold embossed business card, sporting a handsome, casual smile.

"I’m not interested in being friends with you."

Lin Chuxue shot Jin Pengju a cold glance and walked away, leaving Jin Pengju feeling somewhat awkward.

"Tough start, Young Master Jin."

A man beside Jin Pengju mocked.

"Such stunning beauties are not ordinary women. It’s normal to face hurdles initially. Courtship is a game of patience. I like this woman, she can’t escape me."

Jin Pengju was filled with supreme confidence and pride as he trailed after Lin Chuxue.

Sure enough, the Zhuo family delivered the medicinal ingredients promptly. With three thousand-year-old medicinal plants, Zhuo Kun traded for the Mix Yuan Fingers technique, as well as the Yuan-increasing Pills, Eternal-youth Pills, and several Spirit Yuan Pills, demonstrating the resources of the Zhuo family.

"Young friend, would you be interested in visiting our residence after the convention? The Zhuo family would like to make friends with you. Even if you refuse to trade the other secret manual to me, the Zhuo family will still ensure your safety!" Zhuo Kun said.

Everyone around looked envious. If Su Chengyu could develop a relationship with the Zhuo family, he’d have no difficulties in Danyang’s martial arts scene. This was an opportunity others would strive for and most couldn’t even achieve.

"No."

Su Chengyu knew the Zhuo family didn’t have good intentions. There was no way he was going to walk right into trouble by going their estate. Not to mention the fact that the Zhuo family had a Martial King and several Martial Marquis Realm Experts.

Heading to the Zhuo family would be like throwing himself into a trap.

"Very well, if you don’t wish to, I won’t insist! But remember, the Zhuo family’s door is always open to you. We would like to be friends with you. Let me warn you about the Jin family. According to my understanding of them, they will undoubtedly make a move against you."

After finishing his words, Zhuo Kun left with the secret manual and the Elixir.

Su Chengyu chuckled silently in his heart. Zhuo Kun was deliberately blaming the Jin family in an attempt to cast suspicion away from the Zhuo family. As the convention hosts, they had a reputation to uphold and couldn’t let others know they were willing to kill for goods, as it would damage their reputation.

After leaving the convention center, Zhuo Kun quietly ordered one of his servants, "Keep an eye on every move that kid makes."

Jin Pengju had been following Lin Chuxue around the convention center. Seeing her exchanging Elixir for medicinal ingredients, he immediately approached her. "Beautiful lady, if you need ingredients you can talk to me! In the Jin family, we have mountains of medicinal herbs. We also have a fair amount of thousand-year-old medicinal ingredients."

Lin Chuxue wasn’t interested in conversing with people like Jin Pengju. But the notion of a thousand-year-old medicinal ingredient still caught her interest.

"Do you really have thousand-year-old medicinal ingredients?" Lin Chuxue asked suspiciously.

"Of course! The Jin family is a superior martial arts family in Danyang, with powerful resources. A thousand-year-old medicinal ingredient is nothing. We easily have more than a dozen in our medical stores."

Jin Pengju was full of false claims. In his heart, he was secretly thrilled. Trying to win a woman’s heart was too easy, as long as he catered to her interests, or exploited her weaknesses, no woman would be able to escape him."

Jin Pengju knew Lin Chuxue had taken the bait. Once he lured her out of the convention hall, she would be at his mercy!

A hint of joy crept onto Lin Chuxue’s face, but she wasn’t a fool. The rarity and preciousness of the thousand-year-old medicinal ingredients were apparent. Jin Pengju’s claim that he could readily provide a dozen or so seemed false.

"What do you want in exchange?" Lin Chuxue asked cautiously.

Jin Pengju laughed, "It’s unacceptable to talk about trading with a beauty! I can give you two or three without any exchange. It’s a token of my admiration. I hope it can win me the opportunity to pursue you."

Jin Pengju did not reveal any malicious or sleazy intentions. He just wanted to lure Lin Chuxue away from the hall so he could have an easier time dealing with her!
