Lu Chen sensed that something was off about the atmosphere.
Why does it seem like there's a hint of murderous intent?
"What's wrong?"
Lu Chen was curious.
Meng Jiang sneered, "Miss Xuewu, I don't like what you're saying. If I like you, I'll buy you. Do you know how many star stones it will take to redeem you?"
Xue Wu lowered her head.
Clearly, she was just fantasizing; it was completely unrealistic, and she herself knew it was impossible.
Lu Chen frowned slightly.
Meng Jiang sneered, "For a girl like you with a cultivation level of Star Rank 6, if we want to redeem you, just tell us how many Star Stones we need!"
Xue Wu remained silent.
Lu Chen frowned slightly.
Xue Wu lowered her head and shouted, "Ten thousand star stones."
"Ten thousand?"
Lu Chen was taken aback when he heard this, then sighed. Sure enough, this was no small sum.
"Isn't that too expensive?"
Lu Chen chuckled and said, "Luckily, I can't afford it. I'll just play around and call it a day! Let's go, Snow Dance Fairy, all that talk about 'selling art but not sex' is just a pretense of high-mindedness, just a way to make a few more bucks!"
"you……"
Upon hearing this, Xue Wu became even angrier, but she simply turned her head away, no longer wanting to pay any attention to Lu Chen.
I refused.
That would be wonderful.
This was exactly the effect Lu Chen wanted.
System notification: Your confession to Xue Wu failed. You have received a reward of [Realm] +1!
Upon hearing this long-awaited system notification, Lu Chen was stunned. It had been a very, very long time since he had received such a super prize.
However, this reward also has some drawbacks for Lu Chen, namely, it is a direct promotion that does not give Lu Chen any choice.
call out!
Lu Chen's strength was directly and forcibly raised by a level.
Star level, fifth rank.
This elevation in one's realm will enhance one's aura to varying degrees, and it is an all-round enhancement. This change in aura is quite obvious.
really.
"Huh?"
"Brother Lu Chen, you..."
"You broke through?"
"How did he suddenly reach the fifth rank?"
The four brothers immediately sensed it, and their gazes toward Lu Chen were filled with confusion.
That's so strange.
Even Xuewu stared at Lu Chen for a moment, equally confused, not knowing what was going on with him.
"What happened?" Lu Chen laughed and said, "I think I saw Miss Xue Wu and my emotions got so turbulent that I got too excited and accidentally broke through!"
This is a very far-fetched explanation.
However, all four Meng brothers believed it.
You can't disbelieve it.
Xuewu, on the other hand, was a bit strange. She felt that Lu Chen's explanation was too odd. How could he have become emotionally agitated just by seeing her and then break through to the next level?
Is breaking through really that easy?
How many times have I broken through to the next level?
"Forget it, forced love is never sweet!"
Lu Chen suddenly waved his hand, pulled Xue Wu down to sit down again, and this time, he held Xue Wu's hand and wouldn't let go.
"Snow Dance, I like you very much. Do you like me? You have to tell the truth. I hate it when people lie to me!"
Lu Chen's eyes looked very serious.
Xuewu was speechless.
Isn't that obvious? Who even knows you? Why are you talking about liking or disliking someone right off the bat?
If you're not allowed to say anything against your conscience, what kind of answer can you possibly get?
Helpless, Xue Wu's mind raced, and she said, "I don't like it!"
System notification: Your confession to Xuewu failed. You have received a reward of 80 Star Stones.
Lu Chen sighed inwardly. The system was indeed quite realistic. He had just advanced a small realm, and now the rewards he received were reduced.
The greater the difference in cultivation level between yourself and this thing, the richer the rewards.
"If you don't like it, then get out!"
Lu Chen shook off her hand and impatiently sent her away.
At this moment, Xue Wu was stunned.
This person changes their attitude way too quickly!
"Didn't you tell me to answer this, Young Master Lu? You're not allowed to say things against my conscience. This is the first time Xuewu has met Young Master Lu, and we've never had any interaction before. How can Xuewu possibly like you, Young Master Lu?"
Despite feeling incredibly wronged, Xuewu forced herself to say those words.
The four Meng brothers standing nearby were all stunned. This Lu Chen was too twisted!
"Brother Lu Chen, what's with all this liking or disliking? We're all just playing along, why bother? Just have fun, isn't that enough?"
The four Meng brothers thought the same thing, and they did the same.
They don't care about whether they like it or not.
Lu Chen shrugged and said, "If you don't like it, what's the point of playing around? Don't you know there's a secret technique called dual cultivation? Only when you like each other can dual cultivation be twice as effective. Do you really think it's just for fun?"
"Huh? Dual cultivation?"
Xue Wu was startled when she heard this.
The four Meng brothers were also taken aback.
"Hey Brother Lu Chen, you're out having fun and still thinking about cultivation? You're really diligent!"
"But these women's cultivation levels have all been sealed, so how can they talk about dual cultivation? It's simply impossible!"
"Haha, Brother Lu Chen, you're going to be disappointed!"
Lu Chen smiled, but didn't offer much explanation. He simply smiled and said, "You don't understand. I just love this kind of thing!"
