114: Chapter 114 Forced relationships are never sweet

Before Chen Xuanfeng and his group had even entered Duobao City, they sensed the aura of a Golden Core Lightning Tribulation from afar.

"Who is this? To think they'd be so foolish as to undergo their Lightning Tribulation in Duobao City. The City Lord of Duobao City is filthy rich, and the building Materials are the best of the best. They have no idea how much will be destroyed by this tribulation; they're going to lose a fortune in compensation."

Chen Xuanfeng sighed repeatedly.

Ancestor Hefeng's expression was strange.

Xiao Tian and Su Xin exchanged a glance.

Undergoing Tribulation in the city—this maneuver felt somewhat familiar...

"Xuanfeng, that is your father."

Chen Xuanfeng's gaze sharpened, and Xiao Tian murmured, "As expected?"

"Wait, Dad is undergoing Core Formation? When he parted ways with us over a month ago, wasn't he still at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment?"

"How has Dad's cultivation advanced so quickly?"

Ancestor Hefeng felt like coughing up blood.

Who could possibly Cultivate faster than you little monsters!

From the ninth level of Qi Refining to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage—that massive aura is something even ordinary Golden Core cultivators can't compare to!

Xiao Tian remained oblivious, his face full of worry. "I had said that I would definitely be able to defeat Dad this time, but it seems that won't be possible. I must work harder and achieve Core Formation as soon as possible!"

The compressed power within his body was restless.

His gaze fixed on the Lightning Tribulation in the distance, feeling very tempted.

He didn't know which lightning strike this was for his father. If he rushed up to disperse the Lightning Tribulation and form his own core, would it affect his father's Core Formation?

The thought had just crossed Xiao Tian's mind...

Luo Yunkai felt the aura of the thunderclouds become somewhat erratic.

The final two lightning strikes, which should have taken a full day to slowly descend, suddenly launched a surprise attack without any warning.

Two terrifying, thick bolts of lightning struck down simultaneously on Luo Yunkai's head.

Luo Yunkai's hair was instantly scorched, and he spat out a puff of black smoke.

He circulated his spiritual power to quickly recover from his injuries, preparing fully to withstand the lingering damage caused by the Lightning Tribulation.

Suddenly...

The lightning vanished.

The thunderclouds dispersed.

The sky was as clear as washed jade.

Warm sunlight shone down on Luo Yunkai's body, now that he had successfully undergone the tribulation.

Specks of golden light fell upon Luo Yunkai; the gift from the Heavenly Dao was pitifully stingy.

Perhaps it was because Luo Yunkai hadn't really sustained any injuries?

Luo Yunkai exhaled a breath of stale air and thought to himself, 'Thank goodness.'

Fortunately, he hadn't worried about the consumption of spiritual power to recover his injuries.

Otherwise, with the Lightning Tribulation withdrawing so unexpectedly, everyone in the world would have seen him in such a disheveled state!

His previous demeanor as an expert would have vanished completely!

Thank goodness, thank goodness!

Luo Yunkai placed one hand on his waist and stroked his white beard with the other, nodding in satisfaction.

Halfway through his nod, Luo Yunkai froze.

He met the gaze of the suddenly appeared Jin Yuchan, who was looking him up and down with an expression of satisfaction.

Then, he saw spiritual power fluctuate at Jin Yuchan's fingertips as she struck toward his face.

Luo Yunkai used a movement technique and instantly appeared a hundred meters away, dodging Jin Yuchan's sudden "attack."

"What are you doing?" Luo Yunkai felt baffled.

Ancestor Hefeng was startled when he saw this from afar and hurriedly rushed toward Duobao City with Chen Xuanfeng and his brothers.

In almost an instant, Ancestor Hefeng, who had been a few miles outside Duobao City, arrived in front of Luo Yunkai with the others, taking a protective stance.

Sensing that the atmosphere was wrong, Chen Xuanfeng and the others also stepped in front of their father.

Jin Yuchan's gaze swept over Ancestor Hefeng and Chen Xuanfeng and the others behind him, but she paid them no mind at all.

She didn't even consider Ancestor Hefeng a threat.

Her gaze passing over the few people blocking the way, Jin Yuchan looked at Luo Yunkai.

"Did you think I wanted to attack you?"

Luo Yunkai shook his head. How was he supposed to know what this crazy woman was thinking?

Jin Yuchan waved her golden long sleeves, which reflected dazzling light in the sun.

"I just wanted to remove your beard."

Countless question marks slowly appeared on Luo Yunkai's forehead.

Silence doesn't mean I'm the one with the problem; it's you, sister, who has a huge problem!

Jin Yuchan didn't feel there was anything wrong with her words at all and stated her purpose.

"Your cultivation was too low before, which is why I delayed announcing your relationship with Wealthy."

"Now that you have achieved a Breakthrough to the Golden Core, your strength is acceptable."

"But the way you look with a beard is just too old."

"Looking like that, you cannot be my Dao Companion!"

Luo Yunkai's mouth twitched.

So she disliked him before?

And now that he had achieved a Breakthrough to the Golden Core, she was barely willing to accept him?

But I dislike you!

Be your, Jin Yuchan's, Dao Companion?

I'm afraid I'd be worried about being cuckolded—and a colored one at that.

Sleeping together is fine, but establishing a relationship is unnecessary!

Also, you and that foolish woman Chen Shuangfei are truly worthy of being mortal enemies.

It's damn ridiculous that your demands are completely opposite.

One wants him to keep a beard, and the other wants him to shave it off!

In comparison, Luo Yunkai was more willing to satisfy Chen Shuangfei.

"I am Wealthy's biological father, but that doesn't mean I have to be your Dao Companion." Luo Yunkai refused flatly.

Chen Xuanfeng revealed a smug smile, his eyes carrying mockery as he looked at Jin Yuchan.

You think you can compete with my mother?

Jin Yuchan's eyes darkened slightly. "What do you mean?"

The pressure of a Nascent Soul expert came crashing down!

Ancestor Hefeng coughed lightly to help Luo Yunkai block the pressure and advised tactfully, "Fellow Daoist Jin, this... a twisted melon is not sweet."

Jin Yuchan sneered, her eyes fixed intently on Luo Yunkai. "You are unwilling?"

Luo Yunkai was very annoyed by this woman Jin Yuchan's temper.

I don't believe I can't deal with you!

Rolling his eyes, Luo Yunkai suddenly shouted toward the sky, "Inspector Dou, please appear."

Uncle Dou Kuang was enjoying the show; why was the attention suddenly on him?

He shook his head. "This Luo Yunkai, having a woman with such wealth as Jin Yuchan throwing herself at him, and he's still not satisfied? Calling me? What use is calling me?"

"You don't have as many Spirit Stones as she does!"

Uncle Dou Kuang grumbled, but he appeared anyway.

As soon as he appeared, Jin Yuchan's expression changed. She raised her hand and waved, erecting a spiritual energy shield within a hundred-meter radius around herself.

Uncle Dou Kuang didn't care, his rough, unshaven face full of indifference.

He patted Luo Yunkai on the shoulder. "Kid, why don't you just give in? Finding me is really useless, unless you can be richer than that woman Jin Yuchan."

A mysterious smile appeared on Luo Yunkai's face.

He looked at Jin Yuchan. "Jin Yuchan, don't you pride yourself on repaying kindness? Knowing what kind of person Kong Yishui is, just because of his so-called kindness, you could become his Dao Companion, ignore your son for over twenty years for his sake, and even let him imprison your son at will."

Ancestor Hefeng and Uncle Dou Kuang's eyes lit up.

Oh, what's going on here!

They loved hearing this, tell them more!

Jin Yuchan knitted her brows. "What are you trying to say? I already know that Kong Yishui's life-saving grace toward me was fake..."

Luo Yunkai interrupted her directly. "Repaying kindness, right?"

He grabbed Uncle Dou Kuang and pushed him forward.

He almost gagged.

Seriously, he stank!

But I have to say, Chu Jiaojiao's wild imagination really inspired him!

Seeing Jin Yuchan retreat another thousand meters in disgust, Luo Yunkai smiled.

"Do you know how Inspector Dou got this stench?"

Uncle Dou Kuang looked back in surprise at Luo Yunkai.

Luo Yunkai smiled. "To save you!"

Jin Yuchan's eyes narrowed. "Impossible!"

Luo Yunkai said confidently, "Kong Yishui admitted it himself; the life-saving grace was a scheme of his. He even planned to make you like him, with a damaged Foundation, probably thinking that way you would be more dedicated to finding a way to restore your Foundation!"

He patted Uncle Dou Kuang's back heavily. "It was our Inspector Dou who saved you! He spared you from the pain of having your Foundation destroyed!"

A flash of realization crossed Uncle Dou Kuang's eyes, and he slapped his thigh. "Damn it! I knew it! No wonder that scoundrel Kong Yishui got the location wrong!"
