Chapter 1785: Chapter 1475: Chen Lu Is Lu Chen
Seeing Yun Yudieâs calm expression as she said Lu Chen was fine, Ye Chuyao felt that she knew much about this young disciple of hers.
Yun Yudie continued to ask, âIs he⊠really my young disciple?â
Yun Yudie grew increasingly suspicious that Chen Lu might be in some trouble, and perhaps the Chen Lu just now was merely an Immortal King summoned by her Honored Master to temporarily take on Chen Luâs appearance.
Yun Yudie felt there was no need to keep things from Ye Chuyao any longer, especially since Ye Chuyao seemed to have a grudge against Lu Chen and apparently was unaware of his identity. She very much wanted to see Ye Chuyaoâs reaction after discovering Lu Chenâs identity.
If Ye Chuyao knew that Chen Lu was Lu Chen, perhaps she would stop thinking about him and focus all her efforts on cultivation in the future.
Thinking of this, Yun Yudie said directly, âNo.â
Hearing Yun Yudieâs words, Ye Chuyaoâs heart skipped a beat. It wasnât Chen Lu. She had wondered how Chen Lu could suddenly possess the strength of an Immortal King; that person wasnât the real Chen Lu. So where was the real Chen Lu now?
Thinking about her prior suspicions, Ye Chuyaoâs face turned pale. Could Chen Lu really haveâŠ
As she was lost in thought, Yun Yudie spoke again, âHe is Lu Chen.â
With these words, Ye Chuyao snapped out of her daze.
âLu⊠Lu Chen???â
Ye Chuyao was taken aback. Lu Chen wasnât supposed to have exploded himself in the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty. She even suspected at the time that Lu Chen might have faked his death, but her Honored Master said he witnessed Lu Chen explode himself. How is he now alive again?
Yun Yudie went on, âChen Lu is Lu Chen.â
Upon hearing this news, Ye Chuyaoâs mind went blank.
She approached Chen Lu, sacrificing her innocence, all to make Chen Lu confess his identity. In the end, she thought she was mistaken and reluctantly accepted Chen Luâs identity. Now, her Honored Master tells her Chen Lu was Lu Chen???
So, was her instinct right from the start?
Thinking about how she was played for a fool by Lu Chen, Ye Chuyaoâs heart was filled with rage.
Seeing Ye Chuyao stunned on the spot, Yun Yudie didnât say much more. She believed Ye Chuyao would ultimately know what to do.
At that moment, Lu Chenâs figure appeared in the Cultivation Square. As soon as Ye Chuyao saw Lu Chen appear, her heartâs fury ignited. Her body flickered, and she drew her sword, rushing to Lu Chen, pointing the tip at his throat with a cold voice asking, âWhy did you deceive me?â
Lu Chen looked at Ye Chuyao, puzzled, âSenior sister, what do you mean?â
Ye Chuyao sneered and said, âLu Chen, how long do you intend to keep pretending?â
Hearing this, Lu Chen paused for a moment, then glanced at Yun Yudie not far away. Seeing her watching the show, Lu Chen immediately understood that Yun Yudie had voluntarily revealed his identity to Ye Chuyao.
Lu Chen chuckled; he didnât mind much. After all, once he exposed his strength, Ye Chuyao would likely figure out his identity. He didnât expect to hide it from Ye Chuyao for long. Sooner or later, he intended to reveal his identity to her.
Lu Chen then said directly, âDidnât you already know my identity? Back then, you agreedâŠâ
Lu Chen paused, glancing at the Elders in the Cultivation Square. Yun Yudie realized such matters might be inappropriate in public. Those elders who had returned from their shock were looking at Lu Chen and Ye Chuyao, eager to watch the show.
Considering Ye Chuyao was her disciple, Yun Yudie naturally didnât want her to make a fool of herself in public. She waved her hand, and the next moment, Lu Chen and Ye Chuyao were now in Yun Yudieâs bedchamber.
Now that there were no others around, the two of them could argue slowly, perhaps even break things off altogether.
Realizing no one else was around, Lu Chen continued, âSenior sister, you initiated everything from the start. You guessed my identity and chose to engage in dual cultivation with me. So why are you blaming me now?â
Upon hearing this from Lu Chen, Ye Chuyao paused. Indeed, she initially suspected Chen Lu was Lu Chen, leading her to choose dual cultivation with him.
With Lu Chenâs reasoning, Ye Chuyao was left speechless, her words stuck in her chest.
Ye Chuyao then coldly said, âBut you shouldnât have lied about not being Lu Chen!â
Lu Chen replied, âEven if senior sister knew I was Lu Chen, what difference would it make? We have established a marital relationship; can senior sister bear to kill me?â
âBy saying I wasnât Lu Chen, it might alleviate some of senior sisterâs internal concerns. I kept my identity hidden for senior sisterâs good.â
Ye Chuyao paused again. Indeed, the moment she believed Chen Lu wasnât Lu Chen, her heart had fewer internal conflicts. She had no psychological burden during dual cultivation with Lu Chen in Bihai Immortal City.
Seeing Ye Chuyao frozen in place, Yun Yudie frowned slightly. This was not the scene she wished to see.
Lu Chen, that deceitful man, truly knew how to sweet-talk; just a few words and Ye Chuyao lost the urge to kill him.
At this juncture, Lu Chen continued, âSenior sister, I know you resent me for taking Junwan away, but Junwan and I are truly in love. Junwan is still alive and has my child. Once I become an Immortal Emperor, I will go to the Chaotic Sea to bring them out and reunite you. Is that okay?â
âWith things as they are, do you still wish to kill me? If you do, Junwan loses her darling, and her child loses a father. Do you want Junwan to be heartbroken?â
âShould she know you hurt the man she loves most, how would she view you?â
Hearing Lu Chenâs words, Ye Chuyaoâs heart wavered even more.
If Wu Junwan was truly alive, she would rely on Lu Chen to see her again. After all, among those she knew, only Lu Chen had emerged from the Chaotic Sea; likely, only Lu Chen knew Wu Junwanâs whereabouts.
However, thinking about how Lu Chen had fooled her and how his words hinted at threats, Ye Chuyao felt deeply unhappy.
She coldly said, âYouâre a bastard!â
After scolding Lu Chen, Ye Chuyao sheathed her sword and left Yun Yudieâs bedchamber without looking back.
Her heart was filled with anger; the more she looked at Lu Chen, the angrier she felt. The key was she had no means against Lu Chen because she still wanted to see Wu Junwan again.
Most importantly, she herself was tossed around by Lu Chen; she felt she didnât have any qualification to speak about Wu Junwan.
Thinking about the time in Bihai Immortal City made Ye Chuyao feel incredibly distressed. She initially wanted Lu Chen to expose himself, but instead, she fell into this bastardâs trap. No wonder this bastardâs fractured meridians healed so quickly; it was clear he was pretending, just to deceive her.
Her mind was now chaotic, uncertain about future actions.
Once Ye Chuyao left Yun Yudieâs bedchamber, Lu Chenâs gaze fell upon Yun Yudie, who had been watching the drama unfold.
