Chapter 25: Chapter 25 Personally Welcome

Ever since Li Chu had defeated him in the Myriad Demon Cavern, Lin Chen had been consumed with thoughts of vengeance at all times.

If he saw Mu Qingxue and Li Chu again, Lin Chen thought he would surely desire nothing more than to fight them bitterly to avenge the blood feud.

However, Lin Chen hadn’t anticipated that upon truly facing Mu Qingxue, he would instead become calm.

The revenge was definitely to be taken.

But to fight with Lin Chen’s current strength was far from sufficient.

A reckless move would only result in humiliation, especially given that combat was forbidden within the Wanxing Commerce Association.

"I hear your meridians have improved?"

"Now that you have survived, you should behave yourself as an ordinary person, stop thinking about becoming a Formation Master or cultivating. In your lifetime, you’ll never catch up to me. We are no longer of the same world,"

"Don’t indulge in wishful thinking that there could be any possibility between us."

"You and I are in the past. I hope you won’t try to ingratiate yourself with me or disturb me,"

Mu Qingxue’s gaze fell upon Lin Chen, speaking with a haughty tone as if she were someone of great importance.

Her eyes, full of cold disdain when looking at Lin Chen, seemed as though she wanted nothing to do with him.

After all, she was about to become a disciple of the Jade Cauldron Sect, and given her beauty and current talent, many Heavenly Prides within the sect were sure to pursue her in the future.

Having too many rumors about her would naturally be undesirable.

She didn’t expect that Lin Chen would really recover from his meridian injuries; if she had known, she would have joined forces with Li Chu to kill Lin Chen back in the Myriad Demon Cavern.

"Wishful thinking, ingratiating myself with you?"

"Who do you think you are, Mu Qingxue? I, Lin Chen, was truly blind to have dedicated all my cultivation for you, deteriorating three years of cultivation,"

"Now that I know what kind of vile person you are, I find it utterly disgusting. Only a playboy like Li Chu could continue to entertain someone like you."

Lin Chen looked at Mu Qingxue with a disgusted expression, then turned his gaze away from Mu Qingxue and the others, making a move to continue into the Wanxing Commerce Association.

Hearing Lin Chen’s abusive words, Mu Qingxue felt like her lungs were about to explode with rage, glaring furiously at Lin Chen, wishing she could flay him alive.

"You dare to curse at me like that!"

A powerful aura burst forth from Mu Qingxue’s body, one that belonged to a Martial Artist of the Spirit Gathering Realm.

Although Mu Qingxue really wanted to kill Lin Chen on the spot, she wasn’t someone who acted rashly.

This was the Wanxing Commerce Association, where fighting was prohibited.

The rules of the Wanxing Commerce Association were not to be ignored by her.

"Lin Chen, how dare you insult my sister-in-law and slander my brother like this. You’re courting death,"

When Li Huan heard Lin Chen’s words, he instantly burst into a furious rage, his gaze burning like wildfire as he made a move to take action.

Li Huan was indeed hot-headed, his arm still in a sling from his injury, seemingly having forgotten the consequences of fighting within the Wanxing Commerce Association.

Mu Qingxue swiftly stopped him.

If Li Huan fought today and broke the rules of the Wanxing Commerce Association, even as a disciple of Elder Jiang Chengtian, he might still be punished by the Wanxing Commerce Association.

After being held back by Mu Qingxue, Li Huan finally calmed down, inwardly thinking that he had almost fallen for Lin Chen’s trap again.

"Lin Chen, so you’re really crafty, deliberately provoking me, knowing I can’t attack you in the Wanxing Commerce Association."

"Merely a cripple whose meridians are shattered, all you can manage is to win a war of words."

"You’re going to meet Chairman Yu with such audacity? With your worthless state, do you even qualify? It must be just an act, trying to attract my sister-in-law’s attention,"

Once Li Huan calmed down, he considered that Lin Chen might have deliberately provoked him into anger and began to taunt Lin Chen with his words.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen completely ignored Li Huan, the rabid dog.

While Li Huan kept calling her his sister-in-law, he was actually traveling with Mu Qingxue and Mu Qingxuan.

Based on Lin Chen’s knowledge of Li Huan, there was certainly no good water in this guy’s belly.

He was either harboring improper thoughts about his sister-in-law or was interested in Mu Qingxuan.

Seeing Mu Qingxuan’s sweet appearance, Lin Chen didn’t think too much about it.

The affairs of the Mu Family were already none of his concern.

"Young Master Lin Chen, you’ve arrived,"

Just as Li Huan was hurling insults at Lin Chen, a graceful figure descended from the loft of the Wanxing Commerce Association.

The newcomer had a slim and slender figure, with curves in all the right places, and was very slim where it mattered, truly a favorite among countless men.

At that moment, even Lin Chen couldn’t help but take a few more glances at the woman in front of him, whose beauty even overshadowed Mu Qingxue’s, appearing to be just over thirty.

This woman was the Vice Chairman of the Wanxing Commerce Association, the real operator of the Wanxing Commerce Association in Desolate Sky City, Yu Weilian.

Although Lin Chen had never seen Chairman Yu before, he had heard of her from Xun Xiangzhou.

"I have seen Chairman Yu,"

In front of such a beauty, Lin Chen actually became somewhat constrained.

Especially due to Yu Weilian’s impressive bust, Lin Chen dared not look directly at her.

Following Yu Weilian’s appearance, another young lady descended from the loft, Zhao Lingxi.

At the moment, Zhao Lingxi was expressionless, merely glancing politely at Lin Chen.

"I have seen Miss Zhao,"

Lin Chen quickly signaled politely, given her esteemed status and the fact that she had provided him with a Purple Supreme Card, containing Spirit Stones that had been of great help to him.

"Hmm,"

Zhao Lingxi looked at Lin Chen and nodded slightly.

Then she turned and walked back up to the loft.

"If Young Master Lin Chen has any matters, let’s talk in detail upstairs; this way, please,"

With that, Yu Weilian invited Lin Chen upstairs with a smile.

Passersby around them couldn’t believe what they were seeing.

The Vice Chairman of the Wanxing Commerce Association was actually inviting a young man herself.

And that girl from earlier, even Chairman Yu was extremely respectful towards her, and it seemed they had come downstairs only to greet Lin Chen.

Lin Chen smiled faintly and stepped forward, heading up to the loft.

As for Mu Qingxue and the others behind him, Lin Chen didn’t even give them another glance.

He and Mu Qingxue would meet again sooner or later. The blood feud of his meridians being severed and the cold energy invading his body would be avenged by Lin Chen sooner or later, and that day would not be too far off.

Watching Lin Chen’s departing back, Mu Qingxue and Li Chu were first stunned, then curious.

They had not expected that what Lin Chen had just said was true.

He really was there to see Yu Weilian, and she, in turn, knew he was coming and came out to meet him proactively.

Those greeted personally by Yu Weilian were all major figures associated with the Wanxing Commerce Association—since when did Lin Chen qualify for such an honor.

Recently, news about Lin Chen had spread far and wide in Desolate Sky City.

Talk of a First-Rank Spirit Array Master, the number one talent with restored cultivation, capable of creating Strength Talismans with double efficacy, and so on...

Since the incident at the Myriad Demon Cavern, there appeared to be a mysterious veil over Lin Chen, and Mu Qingxue was becoming less and less able to see through him.

Her betrayal of Lin Chen, breaking off relations after crossing the river—was it really the right decision...
