Chapter 3048: Chapter 3068: Kid, you’re asking for a beating!
Secret Realm.
Lin Chen sat on a soft chair, surrounded by various fruits, with a peerlessly beautiful woman playing the zither in front of him, and a row of peerlessly beautiful won gazing at Lin Chen eagerly, carefully attending to him.
Lin Chen did not request such servitude, but when they learned that Lin Chen was here to deal with Lv Shuyi and that, after succeeding, he would allow everyone to leave this place, they could hardly wait to offer Lin Chen their gratitude as if he were a divine spirit.
Lin Chen had said no twice, but they didn’t listen; it seed that only by serving Lin Chen in this way could they express their gratitude and hope that in view of their diligent servitude, he would keep his word and let them leave.
Across from Lin Chen sat Zhen Liuxue, reclining on a couch with a bunch of grapes in hand, picking them off one by one and now and then casting a teasing and schadenfreude-filled glance at Lin Chen, surrounded by nurous won.
These won were originally supposed to serve her, but she sent them to Lin Chen’s side with a remark, “He’s my Master. Whatever he tells to do, I do. Just take good care of him, that’s enough.”
Lin Chen sighed helplessly at Zhen Liuxue’s schadenfreude, “Senior, aren’t you worried that the two guys playing truth gas with Lv Shuyi won’t just avoid coming but also think of ways to deal with us trapped in the Secret Realm?”
Zhen Liuxue pouted, “With you out there, could they outplay you? You cunning little fox, you have people’s lives in your hands, and you still want to kill their spirit…”
Lin Chen laughed sheepishly, “Better safe than sorry, right? We can’t stay in this Secret Realm forever. I might not mind, but I can’t let it harm you, Senior.”
Zhen Liuxue continued to eat her grapes, ignoring Lin Chen.
This kid is just bored, making a fuss over a sure thing, trying to ruffle my mood. He deserves a beating!
With Zhen Liuxue not speaking, Lin Chen couldn’t continue the conversation either. He could only touch his nose and keep sprawling on the chair, waiting.
After a while, Lin Chen suddenly sat up straight, looking intently ahead.
On the shore, the tallic Teleportation Gate began to shimr, the radiance quickly expanding into a full-blown Light Door as a figure stepped through, none other than the long-awaited Lv Shuyi.
Seeing clearly, Lin Chen’s previously tense body relaxed again, and a smile spread across his face.
“She’s here!”
Lv Shuyi landed and casually flicked her finger, sending a spark of radiance flying, striking a giant bell placed below the entrance of the Main Hall.
“Clang!”
The bell’s toll announced the arrival of Lv Shuyi, the Master, prompting all the servants here to bustle about, ready to serve attentively.
Lin Chen remained languidly seated, chuckling, “Please have a seat.”
Anxiety and shock were evident in the handmaids’ eyes, but they obediently remained still.
Though unsure whether Lin Chen could succeed, this was an opportunity they had awaited for who knows how long. They had to take the gamble, even at the risk of their lives.
Lv Shuyi took to the air, heading towards her palace, but she had not flown far when she suddenly halted, turning her head to look at the houseboat at the center of the lake.
Her strength was formidable; her Divine Sense enveloped the area, allowing her to naturally sense the presence of anyone there.
The houseboat was a place where the handmaids often gathered to pass the ti, and logically, upon hearing the bell, they should have hurriedly flown out and raced to the palace entrance to kneel and welco her. But today, despite the bell sounding, they were still on the boat, not moving at all!
Lv Shuyi’s face darkened imdiately, her eyes filling with a fierce storm.
Had they not been disciplined for too long, growing too bold?
Daring to ignore the rules she had set!
It seed she had been too lenient on them. Perhaps it was ti to cull a number and bring in a fresh batch!
Lv Shuyi’s face somber, she flashed above the houseboat and took a closer look. Her expression changed drastically.
The nurous handmaids were cramd on the boat, faces filled with fear and unease, looking at her. And in the midst of these handmaids, on a spacious soft chair, was a man sitting nonchalantly, and this man was the very target of her trip.
Lin Chen!
How was he here?
Wasn’t he supposed to be confined to a cell with his strength sealed by Zhao Yang and Chen Song, waiting for her?
How could he be sitting so brazenly on the boat? Judging by the situation, he had been listening to the zither and enjoying fruits before she arrived?
Did these handmaids release him?
Lv Shuyi’s gaze swept over and then settled on Zhen Liuxue sitting on the other side. Confronted with Zhen Liuxue’s peerlessly beautiful visage and deanor, Lv Shuyi was stricken with a vast suspicion.
Who was this woman?
She didn’t have such an outstanding beauty among her handmaids.
That beautiful visage would drive herself mad. If she belonged to her, she would have utterly destroyed her by now. How could she still be here?
Since she sat there just like Lin Chen, could it be that she was with Lin Chen?
At that thought, she suddenly ca to a realization.
Sothing had gone wrong!
