Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 557 - 517 Kunlun Mountain Range_1
Chapter 557: Chapter 517 Kunlun Mountain Range_1
After getting up and freshening up, Lu Chuan went to the living room and saw that Gu Xiaosang and Gu Xiaorou had ordered breakfast takeout and were already almost done eating.
"I saved a portion for you, eat up."
Gu Xiaorou, holding the takeout box, handed it to Lu Chuan.
"I’ve already bought the tickets, we are leaving at noon."
Lu Chuan spoke while eating his breakfast.
After finishing breakfast, Lu Chuan shouldered his backpack, and the three went downstairs to hail a taxi to the airport.
In the airport waiting hall, Lu Chuan, along with Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang, sat waiting quietly.
Suddenly, Lu Chuan spotted a familiar figure.
Yang Gui had just entered the waiting hall and found a seat to sit down.
"This guy is actually here, he can’t possibly be going to the Kunlun Domain as well, can he?"
Lu Chuan murmured to himself.
Gu Xiaorou looked over, curious, "Who are you talking about?"
"That guy, he’s a disciple of the Sky Martial Sect from the Kunlun Domain, the one who was searching for that Divine Tree branch I showed you last night."
"He tried to take the branch from me yesterday, and after failing to succeed, he’s immediately here to catch a flight."
"I believe he’s not planning to let things go peacefully."
Gu Xiaorou followed Lu Chuan’s gaze and also saw the figure of Yang Gui.
"Sky Martial Sect, I think I’ve heard of them, they’re a very strong martial arts sect with a wide network of connections, linked with many forces."
"This guy is at Martial King Realm strength, not an ordinary person."
Hearing this, Gu Xiaorou immediately felt a shock, "Martial King Realm, it seems he really is not ordinary."
"If I encounter him in the Kunlun Mountain Range this time, he’s definitely going to signal others. It’s not good to take action here, but if I meet him there, I’ll teach him a good lesson."
Lu Chuan clenched his fists, his mind firm with his decision.
It was then that Lu Chuan caught sight of Xu Lingyun’s figure again, who also happened to walk over.
However, she did not sit next to Yang Gui but chose a seat further away.
Lu Chuan understood that this Divine Tree branch was going to cause him no small amount of trouble.
He knew the saying: "The innocent man is guilty of possessing a jade."
Even if there would be trouble, Lu Chuan still would not give up the branch.
The Spiritual Energy contained within the branch was far too vast; if he could find a method to quickly absorb the Spiritual Energy, it would once again boost his cultivation speed.
"Quite interesting, we haven’t even arrived at the Kunlun Domain yet, and we’re already being watched."
"Or we could just take action directly in the Kunlun Mountain, try to resolve the trouble in advance," suggested Gu Xiaorou.
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, "That’s what I was thinking."
When it was time to board the plane, Yang Gui and Xu Lingyun got up in a hurry and entered the plane via the boarding gate.
Gu Xiaosang, who was wearing headphones and was engrossed in a TV drama, quickly stood up too, following closely behind Gu Xiaorou towards the boarding gate.
The plane took off, heading towards Chunmu City.
At half-past one in the afternoon, the plane landed at Chunmu City Airport.
After getting off the plane, Lu Chuan walked out of the airport hall.
Chunmu City was not developed; there were no skyscrapers, no neon lights everywhere, nor any luxurious sports cars.
The only advantage here was the unlimited beauty of the natural scenery.
Lu Chuan turned his head and once again saw the figure of Yang Gui.
Of course, the figure of Xu Lingyun was also present in the flow of people.
Although both were heading to the Kunlun Domain, it was apparent they weren’t traveling together.
In fact, Xu Lingyun seemed to have some disdain for Yang Gui.
But thinking about it, it made sense, as Yang Gui’s act of kneeling yesterday had indeed made him lose all face.
"Xiaorou, how exactly do we enter the Kunlun Domain?"
Gu Xiaorou immediately explained, "First, we enter the Kunlun Mountain Range, find a Spirit Vein Cave in the mountains, and navigate the complex cave system to find the right path."
"Sounds pretty complicated when you put it that way."
"That’s not important, I’ll lead the way."
Gu Xiaorou took the lead and walked ahead, hailing a taxi on the roadside.
After getting in the car, Gu Xiaorou said to the driver, "Driver, please stop at the road closest to the Kunlun Mountain Range."
"It seems you are from out of town," Maybe you’re here to travel to the Kunlun Mountain Range?"
The driver glanced at Lu Chuan and his companions.
"Yes, we’re going hiking. We heard the scenery here is quite nice, so we came."
"Well, you need to be careful. Recently, many people have disappeared in the Kunlun Mountain Range, even search teams don’t know how to begin looking. There are too many getting lost inside."
The driver kindly reminded them.
The car left the city area and proceeded along a mountain road.
After stopping by a small stream, the driver said, "If you’re going in to have fun, just follow this stream inward. When coming out, follow the stream back out too, and don’t get lost."
"Thank you, Master, for going to all this trouble."
After getting out of the car, Gu Xiaorou looked up at the continuous, imposing mountain range and sighed, "I’ve finally returned here."
Gu Xiaosang also sighed, "Finally going home!"
"Let’s go, Lu Chuan. I’ll continue to lead the way. Just follow me."
Lu Chuan nodded slightly and continued to follow Gu Xiaorou, venturing deeper into the dense forests of the mountain range.
This primitive forest was scarcely populated. It was practically uninhabited.
If anything happened here, it would be difficult for the outside world to know.
Even a search team would have trouble conducting a comprehensive search of this mountain range.
The cave that connected to the Kunlun Domain had not yet been discovered by the secular world, thanks to the treacherous environment here that created a barrier between the two realms.
After trekking the rugged mountain path for two or three hours, a secluded cave soon appeared before the three people.
"That’s the cave. Once we go through it, we’ll be in the Kunlun Domain!"
Gu Xiaorou pointed to the cave with some excitement.
Lu Chuan approached the mouth of the cave, and seeing the darkness within, he took out a flashlight.
Just as they were about to enter the cave, footsteps came from behind.
Swish!
Lu Chuan quickly turned around and was astonished to see a figure emerging from within the dense forest.
The figure walked out of the forest and, after arriving at the clearing in front of the cave, also noticed Lu Chuan!
"Yang Gui! It’s you!"
Lu Chuan asked, "Are you going back to the Kunlun Domain?"
Upon seeing Lu Chuan, Yang Gui appeared somewhat surprised.
"I can’t believe I’d run into you in this godforsaken place."
"But whether I’m returning to the Kunlun Domain or not is none of your concern, is it? I’m going back to the Sky Martial Sect; that’s my home. Is there a problem with me going home?"
"You’re going back to send a message, aren’t you?"
Lu Chuan pressed on with his questioning.
Upon hearing this, Yang Gui glanced to the side, somewhat guiltily, "What I do is my business, you’re not from the Sky Martial Sect."
Lu Chuan clenched his fists. He was headed to the Kunlun Domain to take care of affairs for the Lu family, and he did not want other powers to impede him.
Therefore, he absolutely couldn’t let this bastard go back and tip anyone off!
Swish!
Without hesitation, Lu Chuan charged straight towards Yang Gui!
Seeing Lu Chuan rushing towards him quickly, Yang Gui was frightened, his body trembling.
"What are you trying to do? Surely you can’t mean to kill me?"
"So what if I kill you? If I don’t, you will only bring me bigger problems!"
Yang Gui bellowed, "If you dare kill me, the Sky Martial Sect won’t let you off! The Divine Tree branch you carry isn’t fit to be held by you; you don’t have the right!"
"If the Sky Martial Sect finds out I died by your hand, then you will never find a foothold in the Kunlun Domain!"
