Chapter 399: Chu Qin invites Lan Jing’er_1
"Demon Emperor... Chu Qin!" Lan Jing’er’s beautiful eyes snapped open as she murmured softly.
After a moment of contemplation, Lan Jing’er said to Gu You with some excitement, "Gu You, I need to go out for a while. Don’t tell the Sect Hierarch, and don’t allow anyone to follow me!"
"Yes!" Gu You was somewhat baffled, but he still nodded his head.
Immediately, Lan Jing’er took the note and dashed out of the City Lord Manor.
At this moment, Tang San, who was nearby, stood frozen in place. He had just overheard Lan Jing’er mention the name ’Chu Qin’!
How is this possible!
The Seaview Grand Hotel, as its name suggests, is located in Seaside City near the ocean. The hotel backs onto the boundless sea, while its front faces the bustling and lively Seaview Avenue.
Thanks to Lan Jing’er, the Holy Spirit Cult had not dared to slaughter the residents of Seaside City, so the locals had let down their guard, walking the streets and fishing as usual.
The streets were bustling!
Inside the hotel, the atmosphere was equally lively, packed without exception, mostly with young couples.
Soon, Lan Jing’er, dressed in a pure white long dress, appeared in the Seaview Grand Hotel.
Lan Jing’er’s extraordinary beauty immediately caught the attention of many men. Under Lan Jing’er’s allure, these men wished they could rush forward and pin her down fiercely...
However, Lan Jing’er didn’t deign to look at them. Her enchanting eyes wandered around before finally settling on a secluded corner.
There, a man in a Black Cloak and wearing a mask was enjoying tea all by himself!
Lan Jing’er, certain, this was the bastard Chu Qin!
Yes, it was Chu Qin. After bringing several women to Seaside City and preventing a conflict between Wang Chen’s Star Luo Army and the Holy Spirit Cult, Chu Qin had come here alone, with simple objectives: one was to rescue Longhuang and take control of the Holy Spirit Cult, and the other was the very girl before him, Lan Jing’er!
With a clenched silver tooth, Lan Jing’er immediately walked over and plonked down opposite Chu Qin, "You bastard, you’ve got guts, daring to come alone to the Holy Spirit Cult’s base!"
Chu Qin wasn’t bothered by Lan Jing’er’s angry scolding. He smiled faintly and said, "Oh, Lan Jing’er, I’ve disguised myself so well, how did you manage to find me so quickly? You didn’t giveaway my whereabouts, did you!"
"I did not! I, Lan Jing’er, am a person who always keeps her promises!" Lan Jing’er replied angrily, but as she spoke, she found herself at a loss for words!
Indeed, amidst the vast crowd, with Chu Qin disguised as he was, how had she recognized him at a glance?
It was as if Chu Qin had a unique attraction to her!
But could she actually say such a thing out loud?
"No way, I can’t have such a big attraction to you, can I?" Chu Qin seemed to have read Lan Jing’er’s thoughts and said with a light smile.
"Not at all!" Lan Jing’er replied through clenched teeth, "It’s the scent on you... it’s..."
Lan Jing’er had intended to insult Chu Qin but was interrupted by him, who chuckled and said, "It seems it really is. You better not tell me you’re going to ask next what brand of perfume I’m wearing!"
Lan Jing’er was so angry that she was about to burst into flames, but she could only hold it back because Chu Qin’s teasing inexplicably made her somewhat happy. Sitting together with Chu Qin was truly enjoyable for her.
"You jerk, spit it out. It was clearly you who absorbed the Soul Rings from the Demon Emperor, yet you have the audacity to claim you know where the Demon Emperor is. You’d better not be lying to me, otherwise..." Lan Jing’er rattled off in one breath.
"Otherwise what!" Chu Qin flicked his finger, sending a peanut elegantly into his mouth, "Lan Jing’er, let me tell you, my true identity is as a Kingly Peerage of both the Tiandou Empire and the Xingluo Empire, as well as the Great Worship of the Martial Soul Hall, the largest power in Soul Land. You might not know this about Martial Soul Hall, but it has a total of one hundred thousand Soul Masters. Including the forces in my hands, there are more than forty Titled Douluo and seven Unparalleled Douluo! I can also tell you that right now, the Star Luo Army of six hundred thousand and the Soul Master Army are poised at the gates of Seaside City. Meanwhile, the fifty thousand Soul Masters of the Martial Soul Hall are ready to strike, and to destroy the twenty thousand Soul Masters of your Holy Spirit Cult would be a piece of cake!"
Lan Jing’er was momentarily stunned. She had not expected the power of Soul Land to be so immensely strong. Not to mention anything else, the more than forty Titled Douluo and seven Unparalleled Douluo were definitely enough to annihilate the Holy Spirit Cult!
"Are you threatening me?"
Even so, Lan Jing’er simply said with a frown.
"It’s not a threat. I just want to let you know that you can’t threaten me. Instead, I’m not afraid of you at all, nor am I afraid of the Holy Spirit Cult!" Chu Qin continued.
"So what?"
"That just means that my asking to meet with you alone isn’t for the sake of the Holy Spirit Cult!" Chu Qin said with an indifferent smile.
"What...What do you mean?" Lan Jing’er cooled down a bit.
"This isn’t a good place to talk, come with me!" Chu Qin said with a smile at the corner of his mouth, got up, and walked towards the accommodation area on the second floor.
Lan Jing’er was slightly taken aback but still gritted her teeth and followed. Firstly, as Chu Qin had said, he would not play dirty tricks since he simply didn’t need to—his power could easily destroy the Holy Spirit Cult; secondly, it seemed, she didn’t want to refuse at all!
Chu Qin had long since booked a luxurious double suite at the Seaview Grand Hotel.
Seeing Chu Qin open the door to the luxurious suite, Lan Jing’er’s heart skipped a beat.
"Why are you standing there, come in!" Chu Qin looked at Lan Jing’er, who was frozen in place, and said with a casual smile, "Don’t you want to see the Demon Emperor, don’t you want to know the truth about the Holy Spirit Cult’s master?"
"The Holy Spirit Cult’s master... The truth about Longhuang, what do you mean?" Lan Jing’er asked, raising her eyebrows.
"Come in!" Chu Qin, not wanting to explain any further to Lan Jing’er, directly grabbed her arm, walked in, and then closed the door immediately.
After the two entered the room, a furtive figure arrived in the corridor on the second floor!
"Chu Qin, what on earth are you planning to do!"
Once inside the room, Lan Jing’er’s words carried a mixture of grievance and nervousness.
After all, it was a case of a man and a woman alone together in a room. And this room, no matter how one looked at it, seemed like a couple’s suite with all sorts of scenes that could send one’s soul into raptures.
"No matter what I plan to do, you came, didn’t you!" Chu Qin said with an easy smile, removing his mask. "Alright, no more teasing you, you can come out now!"
Lan Jing’er, upon seeing Chu Qin’s face, was slightly startled, her heart stirred, and what followed was even more surprising and delightful to her.
In front of her, a man appeared. The man was dressed in Blue Armor, with blue hair cascading down, a broad back and thick waist, thick eyebrows over deep-set eyes, his face showing some signs of age but exuding a strong vitality—it was the human form of the Deepsea Devil Whale King!
