At the very moment everyone was shocked, the four Great True Men walked straight to the four corners of the sedan chair and hoisted the carrying poles onto their shoulders.
“Lift the sedan!”
As the command fell, the sedan chair smoothly stepped onto the sky bridge that made people turn pale at the mere mention of it!
The Lu family’s sky bridge was the first line of defence guarding Mount Longhu!
For a thousand years, no one had ever stepped onto the sky bridge in such an extremely shocking manner!
In the past, even the Grand Heavenly Master had only crossed the sky bridge on his own.
Everyone around was dumbfounded. Even Lu Heshan was shocked to the extreme at this moment!
What is true bearing?
And what is true grandeur?
And what is true prestige?
At this moment, Luo Chen displayed all of these to the fullest!
The four Great True Men!
Even if the Grand Heavenly Master were here in person, I am afraid he could not achieve this!
After all, the four Great True Men naturally had the status and dignity of True Men.
They would rather die than act as sedan bearers like this.
Lu Zihao was dumbfounded. He had originally thought that since Luo Wuji’s cultivation was now completely scattered and there were people everywhere ready to kick him when he was down, how could he possibly cross the sky bridge?
Today would surely bring disgrace upon Luo Chen.
Lu Shuixian and Annie were equally dumbfounded as they watched this scene!
Luo Wuji had become a cripple. For a cripple to walk into the Lu family with dignity and honour, was that even possible?
Absolutely impossible!
Before this, they would have only treated Luo Chen’s words as a joke.
But at this moment, not only did Luo Chen enter with dignity and honour, he was actually carried inside while sitting in a sedan chair!
Just for this grandeur and style, he was fully worthy of the identity and status of the number one person in China!
Moreover, at this moment, by entering in this manner, Luo Chen had at least implicitly entered the Lu family with an overwhelmingly superior attitude, practically treading on them!
Lu Heshan gave a bitter smile, then turned his head and glared at Lu Zihao!
The cultivators around had originally wanted to watch Luo Chen make a fool of himself, but at this moment, they themselves seemed to be the joke!
No one had expected that Luo Wuji would actually cross the sky bridge and step into the Lu family in such a manner!
After crossing the sky bridge, the sedan chair stopped inside the main gate of the Lu family, and Luo Chen slowly walked out of it.
He then cast his gaze far towards Lu Zihao, Lu Shuixian, and Annie on the other end of the sky bridge.
“Did you not want to witness the bearing of my Luo Wuji?”
“This is it!” Luo Chen pointed at the ground beneath his feet.
“I said it is just a mere sky bridge. Walking across it is far too simple!”
“Even though my Luo Wuji’s cultivation is completely scattered, walking across is just this simple.” Luo Chen sneered!
Lu Shuixian and Annie instantly flushed red. Annie, in particular, was a European noble who had been cherished since childhood. When had she ever been humiliated like this?
“Now, I actually want to witness the bearing of the European Howard noble family. How about it?” Luo Chen looked at Annie mockingly.
These words truly put Annie in an awkward position.
She was an esper with no cultivation and did not understand the mystery of this sky bridge at all. She definitely could not cross it.
But Luo Chen’s words were not just about her. He had dragged the entire Howard family into it.
If she did not walk across today, it would truly ruin the reputation of her Howard family.
Shen Yuelan, however, quickly turned her head to glare at Luo Chen and then spoke.
“Can you not leave some face for others?”
Shen Yuelan was originally reprimanding Luo Chen, but to Annie’s ears, these words sounded like sarcasm instead.
“Shuixian, Xiao Chen just has this stubborn temper. You will just have to discipline him more in the future,” Shen Yuelan said, pulling Lu Shuixian’s hand.
“Auntie, how would I dare to discipline him?” Lu Shuixian said discontentedly.
Even if you crossed the sky bridge, you could not humiliate her best friend like this, could you?
Was this not putting her, Lu Shuixian, in an awkward position as well?
Lu Heshan waved his hand and smoothed things over with a few words, and then the rest of the people walked in through a side door.
Just as they reached the main gate, the four Great True Men clasped their hands and bowed to Luo Chen.
“Mr Luo, what follows is your family matter. It is not convenient for us to participate. We shall meet again.”
“Mm, I will have someone transfer the compensation to you later,” Luo Chen said indifferently.
The reason these four Great True Men came was not because Luo Chen contacted them himself, but because Huainanzi contacted them. Strictly speaking, these four Great True Men were all disciples of Huainanzi.
As the master of the four Great True Men, Huainanzi only needed to say a word, and the four Great True Men would have to come no matter what.
As for the compensation, the four Great True Men did not decline either, because they knew that Huainanzi was in urgent need of money right now, and the more, the better.
“Then we shall not decline,” the four Great True Men said, clasping their hands and bowing once more.
Only Luo Chen and the four Great True Men knew the real reasons behind this.
But when these words reached the ears of the others, they immediately misunderstood, thinking that Luo Chen had paid to invite the four Great True Men.
Everyone suddenly had a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
No wonder the four Great True Men came. It turned out it was for money.
“Sigh, it is truly good to have money,” Annie said sourly from the side.
Watching the departing four Great True Men, Lu Shuixian could not help but shake her head secretly. Although Luo Chen still had money now.
But that was ultimately just secular power. How many times could you use such power?
Perhaps you could dominate in the secular world!
But in the cultivation world, everything depended on one’s own strength and the backing powers.
If you had no strength, those secular powers would eventually be snatched away by someone else one day!
“Mrs Shen, and Mr Luo, let us go in first. I have already prepared a banquet,” Lu Heshan said, making a welcoming gesture.
The commotion today had made even Lu Heshan feel a bit embarrassed.
“Uncle and Auntie, I have just returned and need to go see my father first. Please go ahead and dine,” Lu Shuixian said with a faint smile, clearly not wanting to eat with Luo Chen.
“That is only natural,” Shen Yuelan smiled, and then handed over a bracelet.
It was a bracelet worth several million, which Shen Yuelan had asked someone to buy in Europe.
“A meeting gift,” Shen Yuelan smiled as she handed it to Lu Shuixian.
Lu Shuixian took it for the sake of saving face.
“Thank you, Auntie. Then I will take my leave first,” Lu Shuixian smiled again.
Shen Yuelan nodded, and Lu Shuixian walked away in another direction.
It was not until she turned a few corners that Lu Shuixian took out the bracelet and examined it carefully.
“Shuixian, your mother-in-law is quite generous. Looking at these gemstones, it must be worth several million, right?” Annie glanced at the bracelet.
“Hmph, several million?” Lu Shuixian sneered.
“How could I, Lu Shuixian, ever fancy such secular things?”
“Do you really think I, Lu Shuixian, am as vulgar as the Luo family?”
As soon as Lu Shuixian finished speaking, she casually tossed the bracelet, and it flew into the great river beneath the Lu family’s sky bridge.
“Let us go see my father. I actually want to ask what exactly my father is thinking,” Lu Shuixian said, looking at Lu Zihao.
“Father’s intention is very clear. He does not want you to marry Luo Wuji!”
