Supreme Warrior in the City -
Chapter 1175 - 1174: Destined Friends
Chapter 1175: Chapter 1174: Destined Friends
Southern City, a luxurious villa in the heart of the city.
This is Lü Donglin’s residence, one of several homes that the Beigong War God had bought for him when he first arrived in the Capital City.
Lü Donglin had lived in the Capital City for less than two months, yet the Beigong War God spent over fifty billion to buy him several villas. From this, one could see the Beigong War God’s fondness for his nephew, as well as his immense wealth. The ease with which he bought such villas was as casual as buying vegetables and left people stunned.
In the villa’s living room, Lü Donglin was sitting calmly on the sofa, with three maids by his side, one massaging his shoulders, another pressing his feet, and the third peeling fruits for him. Such a life was like that of an emperor’s, truly befitting Lü Donglin’s status.
Suddenly, Bai Qing walked in. Seeing the scene inside the room, she showed no surprise and walked straight to Lü Donglin’s side.
"Brother, what are you planning to do?" Bai Qing asked anxiously, "I heard you want to challenge Lü Wenbang?"
"What’s so surprising about that?" Lü Donglin said with a light smile, "I came to the Capital City this time with a mission, which is to kill Lü Wenbang."
"But, it’s not the right time to do it!" Bai Qing insisted urgently, "Uncle Beigong said you should challenge Lü Wenbang in a month. With your current strength, you might not be a match for Lü Wenbang. What... what are you doing now? Moreover, making such a huge commotion, are you afraid others won’t know? Aren’t you worried about being ambushed?"
Lü Donglin chuckled, "I feel my strength has increased significantly lately, and it’s time to challenge Lü Wenbang. Your worries are unwarranted; they would have to dare to plot against me first."
"Just yesterday you said you wanted to go into seclusion to make another breakthrough, and now your strength is enough?" Bai Qing was incredulous.
"I am a genius; to increase my strength doesn’t take that much time," Lü Donglin laughed.
"You..." Bai Qing was so frustrated that her face turned red, and then she suddenly said, "Are you trying to help Su Yang?"
Lü Donglin fell silent for a moment before Bai Qing immediately added, "You know that Su Yang is going to deal with Lü Peiwen tonight. You think Lü Peiwen will surely arrange many people to go after Su Yang. So you immediately go public with your challenge to Lü Wenbang, drawing all the attention to yourself. That way, there will be fewer people to help Lü Peiwen, and it’ll be easier for Su Yang?"
Lü Donglin glanced at Bai Qing and said with a faint smile, "Your imagination really runs wild. What does this have to do with that?"
"Don’t try to deceive me, you just want to help Su Yang by challenging Lü Wenbang in advance!" Bai Qing said urgently, "Brother, do you realize how dangerous this is? If Lü Wenbang knows you want to kill him, he has also been plotting to kill you, just hasn’t found the opportunity. Now that your strength isn’t enough and you go challenge him directly, aren’t you giving him the opportunity?"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Lü Donglin shook his head, "I’m challenging Lü Wenbang simply because my strength has reached the necessary level, there’s no other reason!"
"You still won’t tell the truth!" Bai Qing was frantic, "If you don’t tell the truth now, I’m going to call Uncle Beigong!"
As she spoke, Bai Qing rose to leave.
Lü Donglin quickly grabbed her hand, fell silent for a while, then said softly, "Su Yang is my friend, and he has some grievances with Black Widow. While I can’t openly assist him, I cannot just stand idly by either."
"You admitted it!" Bai Qing looked at Lü Donglin and said, "Your challenge to Lü Wenbang is just to help him share the burden!"
"This is the Capital City; after his grand defeat of the Lü Family, Su Yang has made many enemies here. Now that he has so openly declared his intent to go after Lü Peiwen, those young masters of the Capital City are already gathering, planning to kill him together!" Lü Donglin explained, "If I don’t do this, they will all join forces against him tonight, and he will be in trouble. My challenging Lü Wenbang will draw most people’s attention, easing the pressure on him."
"Do you consider him a friend, and does he consider you as one?" Bai Qing pressed urgently, "You’ve only known each other for a short while, is it worth taking such a risk for him? And this Su guy himself is out of his mind, knowing well how the people in the Capital City feel about him, yet he so openly wants to deal with Lü Peiwen. Isn’t that seeking death? Does such a person need your help?"
Lü Donglin gave Bai Qing a look and frowned slightly, "Bai Qing, let me repeat, he is my friend!"
Bai Qing’s face showed mild embarrassment; she knew Lü Donglin’s character. Those considered his friends were his own people, and he wouldn’t tolerate any insult to them. Her words about Su Yang had already angered Lü Donglin.
"Brother, I get that you are loyal, but you have to think about whether it’s worth it or not, and you have to consider your own safety!" Bai Qing said in a low voice, "He’s taking such a risk because he hasn’t thought things through. Should we pay for his mistakes?"
"I understand Su Yang’s character; he is very meticulous in what he does. If it weren’t necessary, he wouldn’t make such a big announcement!" Lü Donglin said, "You don’t understand what he has been through, so you can’t appreciate why he is doing this."
"But is he... can he really be considered your friend?" Bai Qing said helplessly, "How long have you known each other?"
Lü Donglin fell silent for a moment, then softly said, "Bai Qing, how did you get to know me?"
"When you were fleeing disaster, you happened to save me from a forced marriage..." Bai Qing spoke softly, a smile spreading across her face as she recalled the past.
After saving her, Lü Donglin had exposed himself, was caught up by enemies, severely wounded, and almost died a tragic death. Later, it was Bai Qing who risked her life to take him to the Northern Three Provinces and landed on Beigong War God’s territory, where Lü Donglin finally survived.
Thereafter, Bai Qing became Lü Donglin’s sworn sister. Even the Beigong War God was quite good to her, practically treating her as a princess of the Northern Three Provinces.
Lü Donglin said softly, "Some people, you may not need to know for a long time, but you can tell they are destined to be your friend."
Bai Qing was silent; she understood what Lü Donglin meant.
Just as he had risked his life to save her in the most dangerous times, Su Yang had offered his hand to help Ye Wantong out of her engagement pact in the face of pressure from the Chen Family and even the Su Family of Yanbei.
From this perspective, he and Lü Donglin were the same type of person!
Just as Lü Donglin said, some people don’t need to be known for long, but they are destined to be friends.
Perhaps, Lü Donglin and Su Yang were precisely such people.
After a long silence, Bai Qing sighed and said softly, "Brother, you must be very careful in the fight against Lü Wenbang tonight. This old fox can be very cunning!"
