"Heh, you've been hiding your strength," Luo Fan's expression shifted, his eyes fixed on Chu Chen.
"What? Is it that strange? I'm just ensuring my own safety," Chu Chen smiled faintly.
"However, I am rather curious, how did someone like you get expelled from the sect?"
"You..." a cold glint flashed in Luo Fan's eyes, "How did you know I was expelled from the sect?"
"It's not hard to guess; I already said so earlier," Chu Chen shrugged.
"Who exactly are you?"
"Me?" Chu Chen grinned, then uttered four words, one by one.
"Northern Wasteland State, Chu Chen!"
"Chu... Chen?" Luo Fan's eyebrows shot up.
He of course knew of Chu Chen from the Northern Wasteland State.
Because stories about Chu Chen were circulating throughout the entire Southern Yue Kingdom.
Once, the eldest young master of the Chu family, renowned throughout the Southern Yue Kingdom!
He was a genius among the younger generation! Then, at the age of five, he suddenly displayed astonishing talent!
Within a few short years, he reached the Xiantian realm, and even achieved Yuan Gang!
He was the most monstrous genius in the history of the Southern Yue Kingdom.
Unfortunately, that prodigy was ambushed midway through his growth.
He was ultimately pursued by a certain force, fled to the Eastern Earth Domain, and then disappeared!
"You are him?" Luo Fan's pupils contracted sharply.
Because he had also been searching for Chu Chen's whereabouts during this time! But had never found him!
If this youth was truly him, wouldn't that mean the clues he had been chasing all along led to this young master of the Chu family before him!
"Why are you here?" Chu Chen suddenly asked.
"I am here to take you to see Yan'er, under the token of the family head."
"Oh?" Chu Chen was taken aback. He hadn't expected to need to visit Elder Lin.
However, Chu Chen had no desire to see Lin Yanran.
His heart was filled with resentment; how could he be interested in seeing that hypocritical bitch? Thinking this, Chu Chen shook his head.
"I don't have time, and besides, I have no connection with the Lin family anymore."
"It doesn't matter, consider whether you want to see her or not after you meet the elder," Lin Haoyu said indifferently.
Then he turned to leave.
"Hey! Stop!" At this moment, Chu Chen called out.
"What is it?" Lin Haoyu turned and looked at Chu Chen.
"I want to know, why do you hate the Lin family so much, and even want to snatch Lin Yanran away? Is there a reason for this?" Chu Chen asked.
Lin Haoyu snorted, "Since you know that Yan'er and I are in love, don't you know this?"
"In love?" Chu Chen scoffed.
"Sorry, I don't know, please enlighten me!" Chu Chen said.
Lin Haoyu sneered and explained, "Do you think someone like you, a mere ant and waste, has the right to be in love with a direct descendant of my Lin family?"
Chu Chen was stunned, then frowned, "Doesn't your Lin family send their daughters to the imperial palace to choose future empresses? How could you allow direct descendants to marry those from concubines?"
"That's natural. As long as direct descendants can continue to serve the family, why can't we marry our direct daughters to them?" Chu Chen's brow furrowed deeply.
"You are correct, as long as they can serve the family, they can marry and take concubines. However, your Lin family has many direct descendants.
They are constantly fighting amongst themselves, scheming and deceiving. In such a cruel competitive environment, how many men can resist temptation?"
"Moreover, the direct line of the Lin family split into three branches twenty years ago."
Chu Chen sneered, "The Lin family is almost becoming a laughingstock, so you shouldn't be jealous!
You should be glad you're a waste! Because even if you entered the direct line of the Lin family, you'd likely suffer endless humiliation, and most importantly, you wouldn't gain anything!"
After speaking, Chu Chen turned to leave! But at this moment, Lin Haoyu's voice sounded again.
"Haha! You're right, I am a waste, so I shouldn't give up on Yan'er. No matter the cost, I must win her back!"
Lin Haoyu stared at Chu Chen through gritted teeth, his fists clenched.
"Shameless! You wastes only know how to rely on your bloodline to suppress the direct line!
But do you know that the strongest in the Lin family is my elder brother? He is a genuine ninth-level Foundation Establishment martial cultivator!
With you, you still want to fight for a woman with my elder brother? A fool's dream!"
Hearing Lin Haoyu's words, Chu Chen couldn't help but sneer.
"Heh heh!" He slowly shook his head, seemingly too disdainful to speak to such a waste.
Then he climbed out of bed and walked towards the door. Lin Haoyu immediately became anxious.
"Hey! Chu Chen, are you tired of living?"
"This room is equipped with a formation that isolates divine sense detection and prevents spiritual energy from leaking. Do you think you can leave?"
Chu Chen's footsteps stopped, and he slowly turned his head.
"That powerful?" he asked. Lin Haoyu said proudly, "Of course. Otherwise, how could I keep you here obediently?
However, it's too late for you to regret it now. If you agree to join my team now, I can help you break the formation in the room.
If you insist on leaving, then don't blame me for dragging you back!" Upon hearing this, Chu Chen couldn't help but laugh!
"Do you think doing this can force me to submit?"
Lin Haoyu frowned, then showed a mocking expression, "I know, you're just unwilling because your marriage proposal was rejected.
You want to use this method to get my attention, and then take revenge on Yan'er, right?"
At this point, Lin Haoyu's face showed contempt, "You are too despicable, I won't be fooled by you!"
"Heh heh, is that so?" Chu Chen smiled.
"You can try," Lin Haoyu couldn't help but knit his brows.
He looked at Chu Chen, thinking, this guy isn't really fearless of death, is he? Even if this guy has some trump card, he probably can't use it!
No! This Chu Chen is definitely strange, I can't act rashly!
After a moment of thought, Lin Haoyu suddenly shouted coldly, "Chu Chen, I warn you, don't play any tricks!
Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Fine! You don't want me to leave, so I'll leave precisely because of that!" With that, Chu Chen directly opened the door, preparing to leave.
"Stop!" Lin Haoyu, seeing this, was furious and immediately rushed out, blocking Chu Chen's path.
"What is it? Still going to pester me?" Chu Chen narrowed his eyes.
"You!" Lin Haoyu was enraged. He never expected Chu Chen to be so resolute!
"Chu Chen! I advise you to get back immediately. Do you think I dare not touch you?" Lin Haoyu roared in anger, clearly having reached his limit!
"I'm standing right here, come and hit me if you dare!" Chu Chen sneered, showing no fear.
"Good, good, good. Do you really think I can't do anything to you?"
