Chapter 496 The most bizarre confrontation?
Sun Ze said smilingly: "Brother Chen? Brother Chen?"
Lu Chengwen turned back, looking at Sun Ze.
Sun Ze was frightened by Lu Chengwen's expression and gaze, leaned back: "Ai damn, you you you... what's wrong with you?"
Lu Chengwen was puzzled: "What's wrong with me?"
"Your expression is so scary!"
"Ah?" Lu Chengwen paused, then immediately laughed heartily, pulling Qi Meishao into his arms: "Where were we just now?"
"I said... you... your expression changes so quickly!"
Lu Chengwen laughed heartily: "No no, just thinking about things."
"Oh, but I see, Chen Sanjin seems to have issues with both you and little brother Sandun, between you brothers..."
"Hi, a little competition, not a big problem."
"Oh oh oh."
Lu Chengwen watched Long Aotian walk off the stage, clearly feeling that the atmosphere of the entire venue was driven by him.
He was like an emperor, looking straight ahead, walking neither fast nor slow.
He didn't look at anyone, but almost everyone's gaze was on him.
Is this the ability of a main male protagonist?
If not for my accidental interference, would the current Long Aotian already be looking down on the world, embracing a large group of beauties, reaching the pinnacle of life?
[The Zhao Ritian just now, and the current Long Aotian, they are all great figures blessed by fortune, with overflowing talent.]
[If not for my painstaking efforts, their lives should have been like this. Victories like today's would always belong to them, no one else could touch them.]
[All who want to obstruct them would be mercilessly slapped to death; all who block their path would be completely annihilated by them.]
[They are heroes, husbands, leaders, superstars. And I can only hide, always hide.]
[They are all progressing. Even if their rhythm is constantly disrupted by me, resources plundered, they are still advancing. Every day, every hour, even every minute, they are progressing.]
[And what about me? Every step I take, I face a bottomless abyss; every step forward, I face a painful choice...]
[Heh. I want to become stronger.]
Lu Chengwen gritted his teeth, staring intently at Long Aotian.
Qi Meishao and Hua Xueying both looked at Lu Chengwen. They felt both heartache and moved, and at the same time, were inspired by the unwillingness in Lu Chengwen's heart.
[I want to become as strong as them!]
[Stronger than them!]
[hide is just a strategy, I can't hide like this forever!]
[If I can't become stronger, I can only forever watch them shine, while I can only hide in the dark like a street rat, trembling.]
[On what grounds am I scared to death just hearing their names!?]
[Both men, on what grounds can I only survive by bowing my head and relying on clever tricks!?]
[Since I live in this era, this world. Since I have family, friends, and girlfriend...s.]
[To protect all this, it's absolutely impossible without strength!]
Qi Meishao's heart ached hearing this. She hugged Lu Chengwen tightly, tears streaming down.
Lu Chengwen paused, also hugged Qi Meishao, said in a low voice: "I'm fine."
Qi Meishao said: "If Master is unhappy in his heart, you can tell us."
Lu Chengwen laughed heartily: "No, I'm very happy."
"Meishao knows you have something on your mind, knows you're not happy."
Lu Chengwen wiped away her tears: "Silly girl, I am the strongest person in this world. Unhappy things, everyone has them, but well, for me, they are just small problems."
Qi Meishao looked at Lu Chengwen, that gentle smile, the tenderness flowing from the corners of his eyes.
His heart was clearly shattered, clearly struggling painfully in humiliation, fear, and unwillingness.
But, he always only showed us his strong, confident, cheerful, optimistic side.
He was like an ordinary man, using his strong heart to protect the people around him.
His pain, he never shared with others.
Second to last match.
Lu Chengwen, Li Chengze, Zhan Bo.
Lu Chengwen stood up: "You two be good, watch me go to my death!"
He thought he was very humorous, but the two girls didn't laugh at all.
Only Sun Ze "understood" his joke, laughed heartily: "Haha, Brother Sanjin (error, should be Sanliang), you're too funny! Don't you think so..."
Looked back, the two girls weren't laughing, just looking at Lu Chengwen sadly.
Lu Chengwen's joke had no effect, somewhat awkward, scratched his head, walked down, to face his own ring.
Can't win this fight...
Right?
Is my destiny, whenever I meet a master, to tell them I can't, I can't beat them, you are all my daddies, goodbye!?
Chen Sandun and Chen Sanjin had already thoroughly hyped up the venue.
Everyone was looking forward, looking forward to Big Brother Chen's super performance.
But... what do I perform with?
First match, the opponent was a bit tough, took me immense effort to deal with him.
Just now Sima Jiannan, if I faced him, don't even know if it would be a fifty-fifty chance.
Long Aotian beat him like beating a child.
No!
I've also beaten Long Aotian!
Although I still lost by one move in the end, but...
With a heavy heart, Lu Chengwen dazedly went on stage.
The referee asked: "All ready?"
"Ah?" Only then did Lu Chengwen snap back, smiled slightly: "Yes."
The referee repeated some simple rules as per regulations.
Lu Chengwen lowered his head:
Can I... also try to fight for it?
Rationally, should withdraw.
But one step back, step by step back. To what day, what year do I retreat?
Tiansimen Experience Card?
Absolutely not, this is a life-saving item, cannot be used casually here.
Moreover, once I expose Tiansimen strength, then the motive for competing for Tianmen Dan will seem very suspicious.
Old Master Zhang sat at the judges' table, narrowed his eyes: "Chen Sanliang, today you can no longer hide your strength, right? Li Chengze and Zhan Bo were specially arranged for you by me. If you truly are a master surpassing Chen Sanjin and Chen Sandun, your highlight moment has arrived."
Zhang Jiucheng was also very nervous.
Others focused on the grudge match between Chen Sanjin and Sima Jiannan, but the Zhang family was most concerned about Chen Sanliang's match.
Is Chen Sanliang deliberately mystifying, or just bluffing; does he have the succession power or not, all depends on this battle!
Lu Chengwen looked at Li Chengze and Zhan Bo, forced a smile, cupped his fists: "Two brothers, please teach me."
Li Chengze laughed heartily, extended his hand: "Brother Sanliang, wanted to pay respects to you long ago, but knew you always kept your door closed, didn't see guests much, didn't dare to disturb presumptuously."
Lu Chengwen looked, hey, this kid is quite polite.
This way, if I admit defeat, it won't be so embarrassing, ha?
"Hi, I'm a bit socially anxious, so have to keep a low profile."
Zhan Bo also extended his hand: "Brother Sanliang, don't be polite! Who doesn't know you embrace beauties left and right, enjoying the blessings of many wives. And your two younger brothers, can be said to be unrivaled in limelight, stunning the young talents of the North Kingdom!"
Lu Chengwen also shook hands with Zhan Bo: "Hi, two unaccomplished younger brothers. Came out on a trip, didn't make many friends, provoked a whole bunch of enemies."
"Ai!" Li Chengze said: "In the Jianghu, there are always snobbish villains, and belligerent people with deep hostility. Such people, better not to associate with!"
"Exactly!" Zhan Bo said: "Those morally corrupt people, associating with them is useless. Even if you don't offend him, he will offend you. For example, us two brothers last night, were..."
Li Chengze nudged his arm. Zhan Bo quickly shut up.
Lu Chengwen felt, there's a problem here!
These two weren't familiar with me before, today a bit overly enthusiastic!
But one doesn't hit a smiling face. If people are polite, you also have to be polite.
"Haha, actually not afraid of offending people. We would rather offend villains than offend gentlemen. Gentlemen like you two, I, Chen Sanliang, both respect and value!"
Li Chengze said excitedly: "Brother Chen is truly magnanimous, upright and unyielding, also a righteous and sincere gentleman!"
"Yes!" Zhan Bo said: "Two elder brothers, little brother has a word, don't know if I should say it or not?"
Before Lu Chengwen could speak, Li Chengze said: "Worthy brother just say it!"
Zhan Bo said: "We three brothers, met too late, yet hit it off at first sight! Little brother thinks, to become sworn brothers with two elder brothers, henceforth depend on each other through life and death, share honor and disgrace, don't know if two elder brothers would grant me the honor?"
Lu Chengwen smiled: "I already have..."
"Good!" Li Chengze grabbed Lu Chengwen's wrist: "Brother Chen and I were thinking the same thing."
Lu Chengwen forced an awkward smile: "No, I can understand this sentiment, but..."
Li Chengze said excitedly: "Although I, Li, am a mere martial artist, I also quite understand the words loyalty and righteousness. As the saying goes, a bird choosing a tree finds good wood to perch on. A minister choosing a lord finds an enlightened master."
Lu Chengwen: "Brother your words are a bit watery (clichéd)..."
Li Chengze completely ignored, emotions already completely roused: "From now on, Li's life is Brother Lu's life, Li's body is Brother Lu's body. At your command, absolutely no second thoughts."
Lu Chengwen: "Already said not convenient..."
At this moment, Zhan Bo cupped his fists on the side, face full of tears, voice like a loud bell: "Me too!"
Lu Chengwen: "Damn!"
Li Chengze: "I swear to share weal and woe with brother, accompany for life, follow through life and death!"
Lu Chengwen looked at him: "Just... I actually already have..."
Zhan Bo on the side: "Me too!"
Lu Chengwen: "You wait a minute, don't talk first..."
Li Chengze: "If I break this oath, may heaven and man execute me!"
Lu Chengwen: "Can you let me say a word?"
Zhan Bo said loudly: "Me too!"
Lu Chengwen turned back pointing at him: "You've had enough!"
At this time, both knelt down and kowtowed. After getting up, both were tearful: "Dage!"
The entire audience was confused.
Lu Chengwen felt... so ashamed!
These two, what are they doing!?
I was just pondering whether to withdraw, damn... what exactly do these two mean?
No friendship at all, and become sworn brothers on the ring?
Besides, if you want to do the Oath of the Peach Garden, you have to ask if the other party is willing!
Don't even give a chance to breathe, I can't even get a word in, you two have already finished crying, finished bowing, what is this!?
"Ai, I... just..."
Li Chengze pulled Zhan Bo up: "Third brother, let's go!"
"Mm!"
"How can we compete with Dage? The Zhang family's eldest young miss is Dage's!"
"Right! The Li family's eldest young miss is also Dage's!"
"Right! All eldest young misses of big families are Dage's!"
"Ai, all beauties are Dage's, then what about us two?"
"Stupid, having Dage is enough for us two!"
Lu Chengwen and the referee stood on the stage like two fools, watching the two brothers leave hand in hand, both craning their necks to watch, completely unaware of what happened.
Lu Chengwen and the referee looked at each other.
The referee scratched his head: "Then... you win."
Lu Chengwen said: "I haven't even fought yet!"
"They eliminated themselves."
Old Master Zhang was extremely shocked: "What is this?"
Zhang Jiucheng wiped his tears: "Moved!"
The Old Master said angrily: "Moved my ass!"
