Chapter 420: Chapter 416: Accidentally Entering the Boudoir

"Let’s see when the time comes."

During the conversation, Ling Chen, who was practicing with Yuan Yun, suddenly lost his balance and stumbled forward. Thankfully, Yuan Yun reacted quickly and caught his arm, preventing him from falling to the ground.

Seeing this, Qiu Yong and the others rushed over to the sitting, pained-faced Ling Chen and asked with concern, "Junior Brother, what happened?"

Ling Chen stretched his hand to rub his lower back and said with a bitter smile, "The injury acted up again."

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions instantly turned grave.

"Big Brother, can’t the Heavenly Mechanism Pill cure Junior Brother’s injury?" Xia Yue asked.

Before Qiu Yong could speak, Xu Ming shook his head and said, "If it was an internal injury, the Heavenly Mechanism Pill might be somewhat effective, but Junior Brother has sustained external injuries; we can only treat it through recuperation."

"What should we do then?" Xia Yue’s tone was filled with urgency and worry, "The competition is tomorrow, and with his current condition, even if he goes on the stage, he won’t be able to compete."

"It’s okay." Ling Chen forced a smile and said, "I can endure it. Big Brother, please take me back to my room to rest."

Qiu Yong nodded, and Wei Jiahao along with Xia Yue supported Ling Chen as they left the training ground.

As the group was leaving the training ground, heading back to the rooms, a group of people approached from the opposite direction, led by Yi Shuiyan, followed by Qin Wu and others.

Seeing Ling Chen being assisted in his walk, a hardly perceptible cold glint flashed in Yi Shuiyan’s eyes. He sneered as he walked by without saying a word.

"Senior Brother, looking at Ling Chen, it seems like he’s seriously injured," Qin Wu said.

"That’s not my concern," Yi Shuiyan said coldly. "Whether he’s injured or not, I must get the Tianling Blade."

"What if he withdraws from the competition at the last minute?" Qin Wu expressed her concern, "With the eight odd characters protecting him, we might not be able to snatch the Tianling Blade back."

Hearing this, Yi Shuiyan stopped in his tracks, his eyebrows frowning into a line. Qin Wu’s speculation forced him to be cautious. After pondering for a while, a cold smile curled the corners of Yi Shuiyan’s mouth, and his brows slightly relaxed.

"If he wants to withdraw, I’ll force him to fight." Saying so, Yi Shuiyan called a Junior Brother over and whispered a few instructions in his ear.

"Go, don’t mess this up."

"Yes, Senior Brother."

...

Back in his room after resting for a while, Ling Chen felt the pain lessen significantly and wanted to join Qiu Yong and others at the venue. However, considering his injury, Qiu Yong denied his request and asked him to rest in his room.

Watching everyone leave, Ling Chen lay on the bed, bored, staring at the ceiling and lost in thought. He had thought taking the Heavenly Mechanism Pill would give him a more solid chance against Yi Shuiyan, but the injury in his waist became his biggest issue.

During his earlier practice with Yuan Yun, he had already felt how the injury seriously affected his movement.

What to do?

Should he choose to give up?

No, that’s not acceptable!

Ling Chen shook his head silently. No matter what, he couldn’t give up. Even if not for himself, he couldn’t let porridge girl feel disappointed.

He clearly remembered that night when Yi Shuiyan appeared, it was porridge girl who saved him at the critical moment. Although his consciousness was hazy at the time, he recognized porridge girl’s voice.

Even after so long, the words of Porridge Girl still echoed in his ears.

He did not want to be the weaker one; even if he lost in strength, he could not lose in momentum.

After resting in the room for two hours, Ling Chen sat up, preparing to take a walk on the deck, feel the sea breeze, and relax his mood.

Leaving the room, Ling Chen went straight to the deck. At this moment, only he was around, everyone else had gone to the venue to watch the martial arts competition.

That’s good, a rare moment of quiet.

Standing at the edge of the ship’s rail, Ling Chen looked out with raised eyes, watching the azure sea and the clear blue sky, his gloomy mood suddenly brightened a lot.

At that moment, the corner of Ling Chen’s eye suddenly caught a glimpse of a white figure. However, when he turned his head to chase the figure, it had already disappeared.

Strange!

Ling Chen muttered to himself; he had clearly seen someone, but how did they vanish in the blink of an eye? With that thought, he walked over to where the figure had appeared, his gaze searching around for the other party’s whereabouts.

However, although he didn’t find the person, Ling Chen found a cabin door nearby. The figure must have gone in there; otherwise, they wouldn’t have disappeared.

A yellow sign was posted outside the cabin door, indicating that this area was off-limits, and unauthorized personnel were not allowed to enter. Ling Chen looked around, saw that no one on the deck noticed him, and driven by curiosity, he opened the cabin door and quickly stepped inside.

Behind the cabin door was a corridor. Ling Chen walked along the corridor for over ten meters, and a faint fragrance immediately hit his face. Guided by the fragrance, Ling Chen soon found himself outside a room.

The door was slightly ajar, and through the crack, the fragrance inside the room was even more intense, subtle and intoxicating.

Ling Chen reached out to push the door open and peeked inside, only to see the room was empty, not a person in sight.

Could it be the wrong place?

Ling Chen muttered to himself, hesitating for a moment, he stepped into the room.

The room’s decor was simple, with an antique feel, the floor was pure wood, and the wall surfaces were decorated with bamboo strips. In the middle of the room, four thin curtains hung down to the floor. Through the curtains, the items inside were hazy and unclear.

Ling Chen walked forward, lifted the curtains, and saw inside the curtains there was a tea table with a complete set of Kung Fu tea utensils, and a bamboo mat was spread beside it.

Whose place is this?

Ling Chen was somewhat puzzled; the location of this guest room was not only remote but also very hidden. Most importantly, there was a no-entry sign posted outside.

This luxurious giant ship belongs to Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, and the people who could live here must also be from Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

With that thought, Ling Chen immediately retreated towards the doorway. After all, he was just a guest; it would be bad if he was found intruding on private quarters without permission.

However, just as Ling Chen was about to leave, the door next to the room leading to the bedroom was suddenly opened by someone. Following that, a woman walked out of the bedroom.

Seeing that woman, Ling Chen’s face instantly changed, and his eyes widened.

At that moment, the woman was only wearing a thin bralette, with a white skirt wrapped around her lower body, her fair skin completely visible.

As their eyes met, the woman was immediately stunned in place, staring dazedly at Ling Chen and seemed unable to react for a moment.

The first to regain his composure was Ling Chen, he quickly turned around, feeling embarrassed and said, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, I... I’ll leave right now." Speaking, Ling Chen hastened his steps towards the door.

"Stop!"

At this moment, the woman’s voice came from behind, soft and clean like the lingering fragrance in the room, subtle and pleasing to the ears.
