"If you regret it now, the bet between us can still be cancelled."
While Chen Lang was watching the crowd below with some boredom, Mu Ningxue's cold voice came from beside his ear.
Chen Lang turned his head and looked at the ice-sculpted, jade-skinned Ice Beauty with three thousand strands of silver hair beside him.
Whether it was because of the backlash inside her body or because she was naturally like this, she always seemed so aloof from worldly affairs.
Yet perhaps because of this, she also gave men an uncontrollable desire to conquer her, right?
Seeing Chen Lang staring at her with burning eyes, Mu Ningxue frowned slightly. But thinking of their current relationship, that pretty brow relaxed again.
"Why... are you looking at me like that?" Learning to adapt required a stage, and at least the present Mu Ningxue could not adapt completely.
"Of course because you look good."
To what Chen Lang said, Mu Ningxue chose silence.
"Although it's very boring, since we're already here, let's wait and see the outcome."
At this moment, the guests arrived one after another, and Mo Fan was already waiting in the arena for the duel to begin.
As for Yu Ang, he even deliberately delayed his entrance.
The two stood inside the arena, one dressed in bright and gorgeous clothes, and the other casual.
It was hard for anyone to imagine that such two people would have a prearranged duel.
Following a word of start from the elder of the Hunter Alliance, the two launched a magic battle.
In everyone's eyes, they all felt that Yu Ang was bound to win. However, having witnessed Mo Fan's third-tier Fire Element Primary Magic, he also won recognition from quite a few people.
For a commoner to be able to cultivate to this extent, it was undoubtedly a gifted existence in a sense!
It was just a pity that although Mo Fan's cultivation was not weaker than Yu Ang's, Mu Zhuoyun had prepared sufficient magic tools for Yu Ang.
Especially magic tools that resisted the Fire Element.
Fighting up to this point, many people felt it was unfair, and at this time Mu Zhuoyun also stated that 'background is also a part of strength.'
Mu Ningxue was also somewhat shocked at this moment: "I didn't expect... him to grow to this extent!"
Naturally, she understood matters concerning Mo Fan's family.
Even the fact that he was able to study magic was because his father sold their house.
Without any supply of resources, three years to reach the third tier of the Primary level... simply unimaginable!
Although Mo Fan had already astounded the entire audience, this trial had also reached its end.
At this moment, relying on his abundant Magic Power, Yu Ang completely covered the entire combat arena with the power of ice.
Mo Fan's defeat was merely a matter of time.
Seeing Mu Ningxue look over, Chen Lang said nonchalantly, "This still isn't his all."
"Boom~~~"
Just as his words fell, dense electric currents converged, followed by a slight roar bursting forth in the arena!
Except for Chen Lang, everyone present thought that the one who would fall was Mo Fan.
Yet who would have thought that the one who fell was instead Yu Ang...
Mu Ningxue was also looking at the arena in disbelief at this moment, and of course, what shocked her even more was Chen Lang!
He wasn't just guessing blindly; was he really able to sense other people's strength?
Suddenly, thinking of what Chen Lang had said before, Mu Ningxue asked somewhat anxiously, "What you said before about Yu Ang's cultivation not being pure—can you be certain?"
She even grabbed Chen Lang's arm with both hands.
"I can't be completely certain." Chen Lang shook his head.
When he first came to Bocheng, just as Mu Ningxue couldn't completely trust him, others merely felt that he spoke based on intuition, like a child wanting to show off in front of people.
"Afterwards, I'll have my father keep an eye on him," Mu Ningxue said seriously.
With what happened right before her eyes, she no longer maintained a skeptical attitude toward Chen Lang's words, and instead developed a bit of trust.
Chen Lang didn't say anything. In fact, he was wondering whether interfering with the Bocheng disaster would trigger any butterfly effects.
While Chen Lang was pondering matters regarding Bocheng, Mu Ningxue thought of the previous bet.
She even felt that Chen Lang might just be thinking about this very thing...
For a moment, she couldn't help but feel a trace of shyness.
A rare change appeared on the Ice Beauty's pretty face, but unfortunately, Chen Lang, who was focused on pondering Bocheng's affairs at the moment, didn't notice it...
"It's getting late... I'll go back to rest first." Mu Ningxue was very worried about what might happen if Chen Lang stayed here, so while his mind was wandering, she dropped a sentence and fled from this place without looking back.
As Mu Ningxue left, Chen Lang also came back to his senses.
At first he was still puzzled; wasn't this woman going to find her old man to talk about Yu Ang's matter? How come she ran off without even looking back.
Very quickly, though, it dawned on him—wasn't it simply because of the bet...
The duel ended, Mu Ningxue fled, and Chen Lang also returned to his residence.
Just as he entered the room, a black shadow emerged before him.
After the black shadow appeared, he respectfully inquired, "Young Master Lang, Elder Chen Ming will arrive in Bocheng tomorrow. The elder sent me to ask when you will go to the Mu Family?"
"No rush, have them wait for my message."
When Chen Lang came, he had already contacted the family side.
Although Old Master had dissatisfaction, constrained by Chen Lang's performance at the Imperial Capital Academy, he still reluctantly agreed. As long as Chen Lang didn't want to marry Mu Ningxue, Chen Jin could still choose to compromise.
"This..."
Not giving the other party a chance to continue speaking, Chen Lang interrupted: "How did Old Master instruct you all?"
"Do as you wish..." After repeating it, seeing Chen Lang just look at him like that, the shadow person immediately stopped talking and left with an acknowledgment.
He was having Old Master come to the Mu Family, of course, not solely because of Mu Ningxue.
At the same time, he also wanted to do something for Bocheng.
Since he had already come to this world and possessed this ability, it was naturally impossible for him to sit back and do nothing.
He had no heroic dreams, but within the scope of his abilities, he was still willing to contribute a bit of effort.
Except for one rather troublesome point, which was that he needed to make all these events play out in a completely reasonable manner...
Over the next few days, regardless of whether Mu Zhuoyun was willing or not, he still arranged for Chen Lang to stroll around some of the few places in Bocheng.
A crude little city naturally had nothing worth touring.
The only reason Chen Lang could endure his temper to wander around was simply because he was waiting.
Unwittingly, seven days had already passed since that duel.
Today was also the day the Chen Clan's people arrived.
Today was also the day a urine-yellow torrential rain poured down.
Chen Ming, who had come here this time, was still a direct-line elder of the Chen Family.
If, before the people from the Chen Clan arrived, Mu Zhuoyun might still have harbored some reluctance and complaints.
Yet when the people of the Chen Clan arrived, bringing gifts and some items promised by Chen Lang, he no longer had any dissatisfaction.
You couldn't blame him, a father, for having a weak will; it was truly that whatever the Chen Clan sprinkled casually in a year could match decades of his own struggle!
In the face of huge interests, human nature ultimately could not withstand the test...
