High Martial Arts: Invincible Starts from Basic Archery Chapter 746 - 594 My Face, Is Enough
More than an hour later, Sun Chen and the others reluctantly entered the elevator.
They were really unwilling to leave so quickly, wanting to spend more time with that person.
But that person had already given the order, and no matter how unwilling they were, they had to comply.
The elevator descended slowly, and from within they could see the entire scenery of Flame Emperor City, yet none of them had the interest to appreciate it.
"I really envy Brother Li."
Sun Chen sighed.
"Yeah, to be able to have a private conversation with the Thunder Emperor, how fortunate is that?"
"Exactly, the Thunder Emperor’s admiration for him was written all over his face, even a blind man could see it."
"He deserves it."
Someone remarked.
Everyone instantly fell silent and then nodded in agreement.
Indeed, they did not doubt the truth of the matter because it was said by the Thunder Emperor himself.
Could there be any falsehood in that?
Someone remembered something and looked towards the back at Lu Yan, who had a pale face and had not spoken a word since leaving the Observatory.
"Lu Yan, are you okay?"
Sun Chen and the others turned to look as well at the sound of this.
Seeing his appearance, they could more or less guess.
Clearly, he was scared.
Putting aside the fact that Li Ping single-handedly killed two Beast Kings and millions of Fierce Beasts,
just the Thunder Emperor’s favor was enough to make Lu Yan terrified, worried that Li Ping would secretly trip him up.
"No, nothing’s wrong."
Lu Yan forced a smile that looked worse than a cry.
"Lu Yan, do you have some sort of grudge with Brother Li?"
Someone couldn’t help but ask.
"Yeah, Lu Yan, if there’s been any unpleasant thing between you two, just tell us, we’d come up with a solution for you."
"Exactly, don’t keep everything bottled up."
Some were concerned.
While some were just sincerely interested in the gossip.
"Actually, actually, it’s nothing much."
Lu Yan said so, but his heart was filled with worry, and before the others could inquire further, he spilled everything that happened in the past in one breath.
"Is that it?"
After listening to his account, everyone felt greatly disappointed.
They thought it was something significant.
It turned out to be just a mutual dislike with some verbal sparring, no physical conflict at all.
"Isn’t that enough?"
Lu Yan said timidly, "You all heard about his strength, and he’s earned the Thunder Emperor’s favor. If he wants to retaliate against me, it would be effortless for him."
"I think you’re overthinking it."
Sun Chen said, exasperated.
"He doesn’t seem like a petty person, besides, if he wanted to retaliate against you, why didn’t he bring it up just now?"
"I agree. I noticed when he looked at you, it was like you were transparent, he didn’t seem to have any intention of giving you trouble."
"Lu Yan, stop scaring yourself."
"Re... really?"
Lu Yan felt a little better.
"If you’re really worried, why not wait until he leaves and apologize to him? As the saying goes, a smiling face welcomes no fists. Even if he was unhappy with you, he should let it go by then."
"Alright, let’s do that."
Lu Yan gritted his teeth.
A real man can bend and stretch, it’s no big deal to bow his head.
On the other side, inside the Observatory.
The Thunder Emperor looked at Chen Fan and smiled slightly, "Now, can you show me your true face?"
Chen Fan nodded. With a slight rustle, he revealed his original face.
The Thunder Emperor’s pupils widened.
The face before him was so young, it looked about twenty years old.
Much younger than the previous face by more than ten years.
"So, your real name is?"
"Chen Fan."
Chen Fan replied.
He had long guessed that the other had seen through his disguise, so his expression was calm.
Besides, the Thunder Emperor didn’t seem to harbor ill intent.
"Chen Fan, I think I’ve heard that name before."
The Thunder Emperor frowned as if recalling something. Soon, he relaxed his brows, looked at Chen Fan, and said, "I remember now, you’re the one who killed a Celestial Realm Martial Artist from the Song Family and Carl from the Revival Association, right?"
"As expected, nothing escapes the Thunder Emperor."
Chen Fan said.
Don’t be deceived by appearances,
one could easily guess that people would report the happenings in different cities of Yan Country to him.
Killing people from the Song Family and the Revival Association was definitely no small matter in Yan Country.
"So, is the Thunder Emperor here to avenge them?"
Next moment, he asked.
The Thunder Emperor was momentarily stunned, not expecting Chen Fan to be so straightforward.
Then he burst into laughter, "Interesting, aside from those two, you’re the first one in years to speak to me in this tone."
Chen Fan remained silent.
If it came to a fight, he didn’t think he could beat the Thunder Emperor.
But if it came to running, maybe he’d have a chance.
After all, with the boost from various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, his body attributes were comparable to a Beast King-level Fierce Beast.
"What if I said, well done?"
The Thunder Emperor’s eyes flashed with a trace of fierceness.
Chen Fan’s body jolted.
"These Noble Families only care about themselves. Be it commoners or Yan Country, they don’t matter compared to their own safety. Even, ten years ago when Yan Country was on the verge of destruction, they still stood by and did nothing."
