Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 561 - 521 Challenge_1

Gu Xiaorou’s words left everyone present puzzled.

She actually supported Lu Chuan in a solo duel with Lu Jue. Wasn’t that nonsense?

Gu Changye flatly rejected the idea, arguing that if Lu Chuan were to die now, what would have been the point of their painstaking efforts to bring him here?

"No way, you and Lu Chuan should just live a good life together. I will pick an auspicious day later, hasten the wedding, and if things go south, the two of you should leave Carefree City and flee far away," he said.

The Great Elder immediately followed up with, "Lu Jue’s strength is above Martial Prince Realm Grade 5, but specific details are as yet unknown."

"Lu Chuan fighting him would likely not have a chance to win!"

The Second Elder added, "Lu Chuan, I see you are very confident. Do you really believe you have that capability?"

The Fourth Elder shook his head in disappointment and said, "I said from the beginning, people from the secular world aren’t reliable. We can only rely on ourselves!"

Lu Chuan, however, looked at Gu Changye and continued, "Bring Lu Jue out, and tell him someone from the Gu family wants to duel him. If he accepts, I am confident I can kill him!"

Gu Changye immediately replied, "You can find him directly at Chen Family Martial Arts Hall."

"Since he came to Carefree City, he has been very arrogant, posting a notice at Chen Family Martial Arts Hall claiming that whoever defeats him will receive a hundred taels of gold."

"One after another, nearly a dozen people have challenged him, including some martial arts experts from Carefree City."

Lu Chuan then asked, "Did all these dozen or so people lose?"

"To be precise, all of these people have died, died miserably, beaten into meat paste by fists."

"As a result, after a week has passed, no one dares to challenge Lu Jue anymore."

"That hundred taels of gold is probably of no concern to anyone now."

Lu Chuan sneered, "This guy is ruthless, killing whoever he sees, huh."

Gu Xiaorou looked at Lu Chuan, worrying, "Why don’t you find an opportunity to test his strength first?"

"No need, I’m going to Chen Family Martial Arts Hall to find him right now."

Having said that, Lu Chuan stood up to leave.

This action immediately shocked everyone present.

"What are you doing, have you gone mad?"

"Are you going to get yourself killed? Didn’t you hear what the Family Head said? They all turned into meat paste!"

"You’re being impulsive, young man. Isn’t going there suicidal?"

"Just sit down properly. If Lu Jue is to be fought, it should be the Family Head acting, not you youngsters."

Amid the noisy voices around him, Lu Chuan walked his own path, not planning to listen to their suggestions.

"Uncle Gu, since the root of the problem lies with Lu Jue, I will deal with him now, and naturally, the crisis will be resolved," he said.

Gu Changye was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked, "Are you sure?"

"Of course," Lu Chuan replied.

"Well then... since you’re so determined, I will not say more."

"Boil a pot of hot tea for me to drink when I get back. I’ve gotten thirsty on the journey," Lu Chuan said.

After finishing his words, Lu Chuan walked past everyone, exiting the Council Hall right before their eyes.

No sooner had Lu Chuan stepped out than the elders behind him erupted in commotion.

"Gu Xiaorou, why didn’t you stop him?"

"Are people from the secular world all so impulsive?"

"Since when did the secular world’s number one martial artist become him? If he’s not, where does he get his confidence from?"

"Alas, after all this effort, it was all for nothing."

Gu Xiaorou sat composed in her original place, believing in Lu Chuan’s strength; she was certain he could solve that bastard Lu Jue.

...

After Lu Chuan left the Council Hall, he called over Gu Qing, who was nearby.

"Gu Qing, come out with me for a bit."

Gu Qing hurriedly followed and asked, "Brother Lu, do you have something to do outside?"

"Yes, you help me lead the way. I’m not familiar with this place," Lu Chuan replied.

"No problem, just tell me where you want to go," Gu Qing said.

Gu Qing hurriedly led the way in front, his face brimming with a joyful smile.

"So, Lu Chuan, where do you plan to go?"

"To the Chen Family Martial Arts Hall."

"Chen Family Martial Arts Hall? Why would you want to go there? It’s not a nice place at all."

The smile on Gu Qing’s face froze.

"I’m going to challenge them."

As soon as he heard this, Gu Qing was stupefied. Lu Chuan’s first action upon arriving at Carefree City in the Kunlun Domain was to challenge a martial arts school?

"Ah? But why?"

"No need to ask why, just lead the way, I’m doing this to help the Gu family."

Hearing this, Gu Qing did not waste any more words and simply continued to lead the way.

Even though he did not know what Lu Chuan was up to, since he mentioned it was to help the Gu family, he gladly led the way.

Soon, Gu Qing brought Lu Chuan to the entrance of the Chen Family Martial Arts Hall.

On the plaque, the words "Chen Family Martial Arts Hall" were cast in pure gold, enough to showcase the wealth and status of the Chen family.

Lu Chuan turned to Gu Qing and said, "You wait outside for me, I’ll be out in a moment."

Lu Chuan took a few steps forward and was stopped by the guards of the Chen Family Martial Arts Hall.

"What is your business?"

"I’ve come to challenge the school!"

At his words, the two guards looked at each other, somewhat in disbelief.

"Still someone not afraid of death, go on in."

Naturally, the guards would not prevent him from courting death, and they gave him the green light to enter.

Gu Qing, standing outside the door, felt very uneasy when he heard Lu Chuan declare his intention to challenge the school.

When Lu Jue beat his opponent into a pulp, Gu Qing was not far from the arena, and the blood had almost splashed onto his face!

Thinking about that terrifying scene sent shivers down his spine.

But what he never expected was that Lu Chuan would also go in to challenge the school!

"I hope he’s not challenging Lu Jue, I hope not..."

Unable to enter, Gu Qing could only silently pray from outside.

At this moment, Lu Chuan walked into the martial arts hall and saw many students practicing against wooden dummies.

Then, an instructor supervising the students came over and asked Lu Chuan, "Who are you, and what is your business here? Are you here to be a student or to challenge the hall?"

"Call out Lu Jue."

Upon hearing this, the instructor’s face turned pale, and he quickly asked, "What do you want with Lu Jue?"

"Obviously, to challenge the hall!"

"Heh, after so many days, there’s finally another who’s not afraid of death. Very well, I’ll go call Lu Jue now."

Turning around, he left, and the students who were practicing with sounds of exertion also dispersed to clear the area.

Soon after, a figure descended the staircase.

A man in a black Martial Path outfit walked down slowly.

In his arms, he held a girl with a pretty face.

This person was Lu Jue.

And the girl in his arms was the young mistress of the Chen family.

Ever since Lu Jue arrived at Carefree City, he had toyed with beauties from the Chen family, the Siao Family, and the Yang family, changing them daily without repetition.

Lu Jue enjoyed an emperor-like treatment within the three great families, to the point where it made him somewhat reluctant to think of returning.

He walked down the stairs and turned his head to glance.

"Who has such guts to dare challenge me!"

"State your name, I don’t kill the nameless."

Lu Chuan looked at him and said coldly, "I am Lu Chuan. Remember my name well, for you will die by my hand. Not just you but many more from the Lu family should die by my hand!"
