Chapter 87: Hope of promotion
"Whatever you say!" Lu Qingyun still had no fluctuations in his expression. However, Lu Chen had been observing Lu Qingyun's reaction. When he said that he was worried that he would surpass him in the future, Lu Qingyun's heart might not be as calm as the expression on his face.
In other words, what Lu Chen said may be true.
"Lu Qingyun, dare you, make an agreement with me?" Lu Chen said.
"Agreement?"
"Do you want me to wait for you for ten years? Ridiculous!" The corner of Lu Qingyun's mouth seemed to twitch slightly.
"No, I don't want ten years!"
"Lu Qingyun, if you have a seed, you will give me three years." Lu Chen said.
"Three years?" Lu Qingyun was taken aback for a moment, "Lu Chen, do you think you can beat me in three years?"
Lu Qingyun shook his head.
He was indeed a little worried, worried that Lu Chen could surpass him one day in the future. Not to mention that Lu Chen is just a child of a small branch family, even if he is a child of the main family, he absolutely cannot tolerate someone surpassing him. However, it is absolutely impossible for Lu Chen to surpass him in three years.
Not to mention three years, even ten years, Lu Chen can't surpass him.
"If you don't believe me, then promise me to fight!" Lu Chen said, "You Lu Qingyun, but the fourth son of the last Tianjiao ranking, your name, the entire Tiandangzhou cultivator knows. If you insist today, Of course I can't resist killing me. But you strangled me in the cradle because you were afraid that I would surpass you. If this incident were to be spread, it would be bad for your reputation, right?"
Lu Chen stared at Lu Qingyun firmly.
His life and death may be between Lu Qingyun's thoughts. If Lu Qingyun is not in the game, he might really be doomed today.
He must take a gamble!
He bet that Lu Qingyun valued his reputation, as long as Lu Qingyun was worried about the damage to his reputation, there was a high probability that he promised Lu Chen and waited three years before fighting.
Lu Qingyun still looked at Lu Chen with indifferent eyes.
Three years?
Lu Qingyun certainly wouldn't think that Lu Chen could surpass him in three years.
He really cares about his name. If he really kills Lu Chen now, then as Lu Chen said, there will definitely be a group of people outside who think he is afraid that Lu Chen can grow up and surpass him.
He was the Four Great Young Masters on the previous Tianjiao list, and countless cultivators stared at him in Tiandang Continent. I don't know how many people want to find some topics in him. When he killed Lu Chen today, news will definitely come out, and it may indeed have a great negative impact on him.
So it seemed that Lu Chen could only be given three years.
Three years later, he killed Lu Chen, who can gossip? Moreover, it was Lu Chen himself who proposed to fight him three years later.
Lu Qingyun's thoughts turned quickly, and after breathing time, he made a decision.
"Three years later, we two will fight!" Lu Qingyun said to Lu Chen in a faint tone.
"If I don't see you in three years, I will slaughter the entire Qingfeng City Lu Family." Lu Qingyun's eyes swept over Lu Jinyun and others.
Hearing Lu Qingyun's words, Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Today, he does not have the strength to fight Lu Qingyun.
But after three years...that's not necessarily true!
Lu Qingyun didn't know at all, the power of the Universe Mind, and he didn't know that Lu Chen had already opened up the Sea of Consciousness, and within the Sea of Consciousness, there was an incredible and mysterious Universe Soul Seal.
"In three years, I will go to the Lu's house in Tiandang City to find you." Lu Chen said in a voice.
"Wow!"
After Lu Chen's words fell, Lu Qingyun's body disappeared in front of everyone like a bolt of lightning.
The two guards of Lu Zhongyuan glanced at each other at this time.
What should they do?
The two of them were Lu Zhongyuan's bodyguards. Now that Lu Zhongyuan is dead, what should they do? Revenge for Lu Zhongyuan? That is tantamount to looking for death!
The only thing that can be done, it seems, is to take Lu Zhongyuan's body back to the Lu family in Tiandang City.
The two silently carried the body of the Central Plains and left the Lu family compound.
"Lu Chen, in three years, are you really going to fight Lu Qingyun?" Patriarch Lu Jinyun took a breath and looked at Lu Chen and said.
"Lu Qingyun is already a powerhouse in the Promise Realm. Three years later, he will definitely be stronger. If you agree with him to fight in three years, he will definitely not be merciful." Lu Jinyun was full of worries.
The speed of Lu Chen's progress is indeed extremely astonishing.
Even Lu Zhongyuan, who was in the congenital pinnacle realm, was beheaded by Lu Chen.
However, compared with Lu Qingyun, the gap is too big, and the two are not at the same level at all.
Not to mention three years, that is thirty years, if Lu Chen can surpass Lu Qingyun, he would be famous enough to shake Tiandangzhou!
Lu Qingyun, but one of the four young masters on the last Tianjiao list! What kind of character is that?
"If I don't make an agreement with him, then I will die today." Lu Chen shook his head slightly.
Lu Qingyun's determination to kill him was great. With the strength of the Lu Family in Qingfeng City, even if the entire family were all over, it would be difficult to stop Lu Qingyun. If it weren't for Lu Chen's eagerness and wisdom, using Lu Qingyun to focus on fame, then Lu Chen would undoubtedly die today.
Qiao Ruxue is here, it is difficult to save him.
For three years, it was also proposed by Lu Chen after consideration. If it takes too long, Lu Qingyun may not be willing to wait. Three years, neither long nor short.
"Sigh." Lu Jinyun sighed softly.
What Lu Chen said was the truth. In this situation, Lu Chen won at least three years. In any case, there is always a little hope.
"Patriarch, you said before that my Lu family had a bet with the Wang family?" Lu Chen asked.
Just before Lu Chen and Lu Zhongyuan fought, Lu Jinyun said this.
"Yes..." Lu Jinyun said to Lu Chen the agreement he had made with Wang Lieyang, the head of the Wang family, in the City Lord's Mansion.
He hadn't told Lu Chen before, because he didn't think it made sense to tell Lu Chen. Lu Jinyun, never thought that the person who represented the Lu family would be Lu Chen.
Not only him, but the other Lu family members also never thought that Lu Chen might represent the Lu family. Lu Chen had just stepped into the realm of marrow washing when he agreed to bet with the Wang family. He was just a cultivator in the initial stage of washing marrow.
Who could have imagined that in just one year, Lu Chen had stepped into the innate realm, and was still an innate cultivator who could fight against the innate pinnacle realm cultivator.
Things are impermanent!
Many things are really hard to see clearly beforehand, and things in the future are even more unpredictable.
One or two years ago, who could have thought that Lu Chen, grandson of Lu Tianxing, the third elder of the Lu family, could step into the martial arts? Not only become an extremely good pharmacist, but also a cultivator of evildoers?
"Patriarch, I can fight on behalf of the Lu family against the Wang family." Lu Chen said in a deep voice.
In any case, this gambling battle started because of myself. I should also contribute to the family.
"Hmph, do you know that if you lose the battle, then my Lu Family's largest mineral vein will fall into the hands of the Wang Family?" Great Elder Lu Yongfang gave a cold snort and glanced at Lu Chen.
When Lu Chen heard this, his breath moved slightly, and he also looked at Lu Yongfang.
This old thing jumped out again to brush up on the sense of existence.
When Lu Qingyun was about to kill Lu Chen, the Patriarch and other elders stood in front of Lu Qingyun. But this Lu Yongfang hid away, for fear that Lu Qingyun might be angry with him.
Lu Chen didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, and now, this old thing even had a face to question Lu Chen.
This old thing, in his heart may wish that Lu Chen was directly killed by Lu Qingyun!
"Lu Yongfang, if you have a better candidate, you can tell it." Lu Chen sneered and said bluntly.
"You..." Lu Yongfang was suddenly speechless when asked so.
A better candidate?
If the Lu family could find a suitable candidate, they wouldn't ask for help from the owner of Tiandang City, and Lu Zhongyuan would not come to Qingfeng City.
Lu Yongfang, of course, there is no more suitable candidate.
Moreover, the Lu Zhongyuan they tried so hard to find was also killed by Lu Chen, that is to say, Lu Zhongyuan's strength is not as good as Lu Chen. Lu Chen played on behalf of the Lu family, and obviously had a better chance.
"Can't find a better candidate?"
"If you can't find it, just shut up!" Lu Chen sneered.
The two elders, Lu Yongfang and the Ninth Elder, Xianzhi Lu, have always been at odds with Lu Chen. Of course, Lu Chen does not need to be polite and respectful to these two.
Lu Yongfang was trembling with anger when Lu Chen was told, his face was blue and his eyes rolled.
"Okay!" Patriarch Lu Jinyun waved his hand, "Lu Chen, it's up to you to represent the Lu Family in the fight against the Wang Family. It's just a month later. You seem to have been injured too. During this time, you will heal your injuries."
"If you can win, the family will reward you with 200,000 gold coins." Lu Jinyun continued.
Ask Lu Zhongyuan to come over to represent the Lu family. The Lu family will pay 200,000 gold coins. Moreover, Lu Zhongyuan does not guarantee that he will win. In other words, whether Lu Zhongyuan wins or loses, the Lu family needs to pay 200,000 gold coins.
Once Lu Zhongyuan really wins, then the Lu family will definitely pay more.
Two hundred thousand gold coins are indeed a lot. For a family like the Lu family, one year's income, excluding various expenses, may have a balance of two or three hundred thousand gold coins. However, if Lu Chen wins, then the Lu Family gets a large-scale mineral vein, and a mere two hundred thousand gold coins is nothing.
"Okay." Lu Chen nodded.
Since the family wanted to give rewards, Lu Chen certainly wouldn't refuse. Now, although he can make potions and refine elixirs, making money is relatively easy, but he needs too many resources for cultivation, and having more gold coins is a good thing.
If you talk about the resources consumed by Lu Chen's promotion to the Innate Realm, I am afraid that even Lu Jinyun and others will be frightened.
Of course, cultivation consumes a lot of resources and has benefits. That is, Lu Chen's internal strength is far from comparable to that of ordinary innate realm cultivators.
Lu Chen's injury was indeed not minor, but he had taken his own special healing potion, and the injury healed quickly.
A few days later, Lu Chen's injury was almost healed.
After the injury healed, Lu Chen continued to use Guiyuan Pill to cultivate and improve his strength.
The speed of his progress can be described as a thousand miles, every day, there is a huge improvement.
As time goes by, he is getting closer and closer to the congenital peak realm.
When the day before the date of the Lu Family and Wang Family gambling battle arrived, Lu Chen's realm had already reached the point of approaching the innate peak, and he was only one step away from entering the innate peak realm.
At this time, Lu Chen also had to hold back.
Promoting from an ordinary congenital to the congenital peak, although the difficulty is far less than that of the acquired congenital, but it is not easy to do. There are also many cultivators of ordinary innate realm who are stuck at this point. It is not impossible that they cannot be promoted for a long time, or even for a lifetime.
However, it was even more difficult for Lu Chen to be promoted to Innate Peak.
Because the impact he needs for promotion far exceeds that of ordinary innate promotion to Innate Peak. Ordinary cultivators may prepare some pill of Guiyuan Pill, especially if there are better quality Guiyuan Pills, such as excellent quality, then the probability of successful promotion is higher.
