322: Cracks in the mentor-apprentice relationship

Lu Chen was truly broken; he couldn't accept this fact. What exactly did Su Xuan do to Luo Qingxue? Why did Luo Qingxue like him before, but now she refused to…

Was it because she gave her first time to Su Xuan? But he had already said he didn't care!

Why was Luo Qingxue treating him like this? What did it mean to activate this defensive barrier?

“Chen’er, I activated this barrier for your own good! Haven’t you realized it yet?”

“Given your current physical condition, you cannot give me happiness. This isn’t a question of whether you can or not!”

Luo Qingxue said.

“Master! What do you mean by this! What’s wrong with my body? Tell me! Tell me!”

Lu Chen screamed frantically, feeling like the whole world was against him. Su Xuan was against him, and Luo Qingxue was also against him!

He had been so magnanimous, yet Luo Qingxue refused to accept him!

“This… this… how do you want me to explain it… haven’t you noticed any changes in your body?”

Luo Qingxue was too embarrassed to explain to Lu Chen; she could only let Lu Chen figure it out himself.

Lu Chen examined himself from head to toe but still found no problems. He felt that Luo Qingxue was lying to him!

“Heh, I never thought! Master, you are such a woman! I don’t know what kind of bewitching potion Su Xuan gave you to make you like this!”

“Since you’re unwilling to accept me, then from today onwards, don’t talk to me!”

When Lu Chen said these words, his heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife. Although he felt some reluctance, he still made this decision.

“Chen’er… I…”

“Enough! Shut up! I don’t want to see you again! You harlot, slut! From now on, I have nothing to do with you!”

Lu Chen yelled at Luo Qingxue, then slammed the door and left.

“Chen’er…”

Watching Lu Chen’s departing back, Luo Qingxue also felt her heart twisting. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but Lu Chen couldn't do it!

What good would it do besides getting her covered in saliva?

Of course, she also knew that Su Xuan would not allow Lu Chen to touch her. If Lu Chen had truly touched her just now, he would probably have been directly killed.

“Sigh! Chen’er… after I atone for my sins, we can carefully consider our future plans…”

Luo Qingxue sighed.

…

“System! What on earth is going on? Didn’t you say that this operation was foolproof!”

“Why was Su Xuan there! Why! Why! I was clearly so close to succeeding!”

Lu Chen questioned his System.

“Host, this was an unexpected situation! I didn’t know either! And the facts prove that I was right!”

“If Su Xuan hadn’t suddenly interfered, wouldn’t you have succeeded? You can’t blame me for this!”

The Mission System said aggrievedly.

Although this matter wasn't its fault, Lu Chen becoming a eunuch from now on was definitely its fault!

Of course, the Mission System decided to keep this matter to itself and not reveal it.

“You’re right, this matter truly isn’t your fault. If anyone’s to blame, it’s that guy Su Xuan!”

Lu Chen thought carefully and realized that this was indeed the case.

His System had already told him about Luo Qingxue losing her Realm!

Moreover, after he confessed to Luo Qingxue, she also agreed to him!

He was about to succeed, but then Su Xuan suddenly appeared! He really didn't know how Su Xuan did it!

“Is it a coincidence? Or something else? Why can Su Xuan always appear and ruin my good fortune!”

“This guy is simply my bane! Does he also have something similar to a System?”

Lu Chen couldn't understand, but his resentment towards Su Xuan deepened even further.

As long as Su Xuan wasn't eliminated, he would never have peace. This guy, no matter what, he had to get rid of him!

But now, with his current strength, he couldn't do it at all. He had originally thought of relying on Luo Qingxue, but Luo Qingxue had lost her Realm, and he had just yelled at her.

Moreover, for some reason, Lu Chen always felt that Luo Qingxue was very resistant to him now, but quite the opposite towards Su Xuan…

Sigh! Anyway, no matter what, Luo Qingxue couldn’t be relied on now; he could only rely on himself!

“I must secure the Saint position in the Saint Child Selection in half a month!”

“As long as I can become the Saint of Qingling Holy Land, then I can use the power of Qingling Holy Land!”

“Qingling Holy Land is a Holy Land after all. Although the number of people is small, they have money!”

“Even if Su Xuan is backed by Tianwu Holy Land, so what? As long as I have money, I can completely hire a group of people to kill him!”

Lu Chen gave a sinister smile. He had already thought about how to deal with Su Xuan in the future.

After killing Su Xuan, he would then coax Luo Qingxue back to happiness. This way, he would have both love and career success, and from now on, he would reach the Peak of his life!

Lu Chen started fantasizing again.

“Oh, right, System, what happened when I was unconscious? Why did my Master say there was something wrong with my body?”

Lu Chen asked.

“I don’t know either! I didn’t find Su Xuan doing anything to you!”

The Mission System honestly stated.

These words were indeed true, because Su Xuan really didn't do anything to Lu Chen, but the Mission System did a great deed!

But it wasn't a big problem; it didn't lie to Lu Chen, so it had a clear conscience.

“So that’s how it is! It seems Luo Qingxue was really brainwashed by Su Xuan!”

Lu Chen was a little angry, never expecting Luo Qingxue to be so thoroughly brainwashed!

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt some resentment, but it wasn’t a big problem; he was still willing to accept Luo Qingxue.

【Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully triggering a new mission!】

【Mission Name: Saint Child Selection!】

【Mission Content: Obtain a top five ranking in the Saint Child Selection!】

【Mission Reward: Depends on mission completion, with a guaranteed increase of one major Realm!】

Hearing the mission released by the System, Lu Chen smiled knowingly. This mission was simply effortless!

“Just a top five, no big deal! I thought you were going to make me get first place! System, you’re quite good!”

Lu Chen laughed.

“My poor Host! This is just a small compensation from me to you!”

The Mission System thought to itself.

…

“Ooh ooh ooh, Husband, don’t torment me anymore, I really can’t take it anymore~”

Liu Su Su’s face was flushed with shyness, unable to hold on any longer, she slumped into Su Xuan’s embrace.

“Hehehehehe, that’s all it takes? What did you say just now? That you would have me under your thumb? Not so much!”

Su Xuan burst into laughter.
