Chapter 129: The Eve of the Storm

  Li Tianlun looked at Yafen and then asked Xiang E'chuan with a smile that still lingered from their previous agreement.

  "Ah, Elder! I heard that in this Jade Water City, there's a Ling Luo who recently defeated Fei Yun! I think, Elder, it would be better to arrange for me to fight against that Ling Luo!"

  Nishikawa, after Feiyun, heard that not long ago, a challenger named Lingluo also defeated Feiyun. He immediately asked who Lingluo was. However, the person didn't know either and couldn't tell him. In the end, the person told him to go find President Li Tianlun and have Li Tianlun arrange this battle.

  "Ling Luo?" Li Tianlun furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, and then smiled: "Mr. Xichuan, this Ling Luo is not the champion of my Extreme Limit Challenge Arena, if you want to fight him, you need to get his consent first!"

  If Xichuan and Lingluo were to fight, it would definitely cause a sensation in Yushui City. At that time, the reputation of Extreme Arena in Yushui City will be even greater! This was also what Li Tianlun was happy to see.

  But now he can't be certain whether Ling Luo will participate in this challenge match or not.

  "Heh heh, I'm sure the president will definitely have a way! Moreover, this ultimate challenge for the president is also a good thing! The president can rest assured, I won't take that Ling Luo's life!" Xichuan raised an eyebrow and smiled slyly.

  Yafen stood by, her breath caught in her throat, with a sense of suffocation in her heart.

  When she heard that Nishikawa was going to fight with Ling Luo, Yafen suddenly felt a wave of panic.

  Ling Luo is indeed very powerful, but after all, he is only a post-heavenly peak expert. The gap between him and the spiritual masters is not small! If these two were to fight, Ling Luo's chances of winning would be almost zero.

  Look at this. Nishikawa's expression, although he said he wouldn't take Lingluo's life, but if he crippled one of Lingluo's arms or legs, wouldn't Lingluo become a useless person?

  Yafen knew Ling Luo's true identity. To be honest, she didn't have any reason to worry about it. But this kind of worry was beyond her control. It came from the depths of her heart and couldn't be stopped!

  Yafen bit her red lips and seemed a little distracted.

  "Mr. Nishikawa, on the stage, life and death are one's own responsibility!" Li Tianlun's face trembled slightly as he said in a low voice. Just now, Nishikawa said he wouldn't take Ling Luo's life, and as the president of the venue, he naturally couldn't accept this!

  "Heh, yes, I know the rules." Xichuan's cold gaze swept across, then deeply looked at Yafen before withdrawing his gaze. "Then, please arrange for me to battle that Ling Luo three days later!"

  "Chairman, Miss Yafen, I'll take my leave first! That 50,000 gold coin reward, I've already received it! Hehe, thank you!" After finishing speaking, Xichuan turned around and walked silently towards the door.

  After Xi Chuan left, Ye Feng and Liu Mei gathered together.

  "President, are you really going to let Ling Luo and Xi fight?" Yafen's gentle voice also carried a hint of solemnity, with some frantic eyes.

  Li Tianlun looked at Yafen, his fingers still tapping on the table, and after a moment of silence, he said: "This still depends on Ling Luo. If he is willing, then I have no reason not to let the two fight. Now, you go to the Xia family and inform Ling Luo, ask him to come to the meeting place and discuss it with him in detail. I think he might agree!"

  "Hehe, if he agrees. Then our extreme challenge arena" As he said this, Li Tianlun couldn't help but smile proudly.

  "Yafen, you seem a bit off. Are you worried about Lingluo?" Suddenly, Li Tianlun's tone changed, his eyes shifting with an odd inquiry.

  Yafen's slender body shook, and she hastily said: "No, I...I just think this Westerner is very strange! Ling Luo is a postnatal strongman, although he defeated Fei Yun, but it's also impossible for him to be the opponent of this Westerner. If we let Ling Luo fight with him, Ling Luo will be in great danger! Ling Luo is only 15 years old!"

  "Ah!" Li Tianlun let out a soft sigh, his gaze drifting to the distance. "You do as I said! The right to make this decision lies in Ling Luo's hands, it's up to her now!"

  Li Tianlun lowered his eyes and waved his hand at Yafen!

  Yafen's face was somewhat overcast, and it wasn't good to say anything else, so she could only move her lotus steps and slowly back down.

  "I hope Ling Luo doesn't stupidly agree! Hmm, when Ling Luo arrives, I'll try to persuade him not to agree." After leaving Li Tianlun's room, Yafen started to quicken her pace, thinking to herself.

  After turning a corner, Yafen's breathtakingly beautiful face regained its confident and calm smile.

  Coming out of the auction house's pharmacy, Xia Yan's eyebrows under his mask had been furrowed all along.

  "Even without the Blood Ling Grass, it's still short of 120,000 gold coins! Where can we get this money from?" Xia Yan shook his head as he walked on the street. "Ah, an ordinary family's annual income is only a few dozen or a hundred gold coins at most! And yet, one stalk of this herb requires tens of thousands of gold coins!"

  "Refining elixirs and concocting medicine isn't something just anyone can do." Xia Yan sighed helplessly.

  Xia Yan, wearing a green shirt, did not immediately return to the Xia family's mansion. He had to come up with a way to make money first.

  Advanced Arena Challenge allows spectators in the second tier to watch challengers with a large amount of gold coins, but they are not ordinary people. The amount of gold coins they bet is in the tens of thousands.

  Calculated as units.

  The winner is delighted, the loser hangs his head in shame. This is normal, even if they have a lot of wealth, it's impossible for them to be unmoved by tens of thousands of gold coins.

  Inside the venue, in a luxurious room. Li Tianlun and Yafen are both inside at this moment. This room is where Li Tianlun usually works. And only Yafen can enter and exit freely here.

  The high-level arena challenge has just ended, leaving Li Tianlun and Yafen in shock! Although they had already started paying attention to Xikang in the previous few matches, the strength he showed in this final high-level arena challenge still left them somewhat surprised.

  Yafenming's beautiful face still had a hint of astonishment. To know that the Yu Shui City Extreme Challenge Arena had not seen a challenger defeat Fei Yun in years, yet in the past two months, two people had appeared one after another to defeat Fei Yun. This time, it was even more astonishing as he was severely injured with just two moves.

  The first person is Zero, who appeared not long ago. And this second person is now Nishikawa.

  Xī Jiāng wasn't from Yù Shuǐ Chéng, but had only arrived a month ago. At first, just like Líng Luó, no one had heard of Xī Jiāng's great name.

  It wasn't until after the first challenge match that Xi gradually gained attention from everyone.

  In the first match, he broke off the thigh of the then champion with one claw! At that time on the arena. Fresh blood gushed out, leaving many gamblers speechless.

  Although it's not uncommon for people to get hurt or even die in the arena, scenes as bloody as having one's leg directly torn off are extremely rare.

  Next, the second set, the third set, the fourth set

  Until the fifth round, Xigang won all!

  Yafen also made a special investigation into Xikang's background, but was surprised to find that even the power of the Extreme Challenge Arena could not investigate this person.

  All he knew was that he had come from Jincheng to Yushui City.

  Jinyang City is a main city that is on the same level as Ziyecheng. To the east of Ziyecheng, there are dozens of county cities in between. This Xichuan came to Yushui City, and it seems like he didn't have any purpose either.

  Started participating in the challenge, it seemed to be just for earning some gold coins. However, Yafen had always been suspicious. Coming all the way to Yu Shui City just to earn gold coins? This was really puzzling, if you wanted to earn gold coins, you could do so in any main city or county town, why did you have to come to Yu Shui City?

  After this match ended, Yafen became even more suspicious. Obviously, Xichuan was a congenital strongman who surpassed the acquired strongman, and such a powerful person would have many methods to earn gold coins that were faster and more profitable than participating in the Extreme Challenge Arena's matches.

  "Strong Ones in the Realm of Spiritual Masters"

  Li Tianlun's fingers inside the room slowly tapped on the luxurious desktop, his eyes flickering slightly.

  "In our small Jade Water City's Extreme Challenge Arena, a powerful Spiritual Master has actually come to participate in the challenge match." Li Tianlun's eyes shifted towards Yafen, his mouth curled up into an eerie smile, and he shrugged his shoulders, "How interesting! Truly interesting!"

  The house is stuffy inside!

  "Chairman, if this Xikawa becomes the senior referee, then in the future..." Yafen's face was solemn, and under her black noble dress, her slender and elegant figure emitted a dizzying fragrance.

  "No way!" Li Tianlun shook his head. "He's a strong Spirit Master! Hehe, if he really wants to take on the role of High-Level Arena Master, I think it won't be long before Spirit Masters come to challenge him. That would be beneficial for our arena as well."

  Li Tianlun waved his hand and smiled.

  Yafen's eyebrows slightly furrowed, then relaxed, and Bai Zhe's hand pressed on the table, smiling: "I understand! Hehe, it's just a pity that Yushui City is only a county town, if it were the main city...

  "Halt"

  Just as Yafen was speaking, a sudden commotion came from outside.

  "It's the voice of the guardian!" Yafen frowned and said.

  "Hmm!" Li Tianlun nodded.

  "Make way, I want to go in and meet your superior!" a voice rang out.

  Li Tianlun furrowed his brow, "Huh? What's going on with Xi?"

  Yafen also didn't understand.

  Li Tianlun stood up and shouted towards the door: "Let Mr. Xi come in!"

  A figure flashed by, and in an instant, a person burst into the room from the main entrance. This person was none other than Xichuan, the strong master of the Spiritual Realm who had just defeated Feiyun on the high-level arena!

  "Haha, I've seen the president before!" Xi said with a smile after entering, his eyes scanning Yafen's body for a moment before turning to Li Tianlun.

  He also clearly knows Li Tianlun's strength.

  Yafen frowned slightly under his gaze, but it was only for a moment before she regained her usual smile.

  Yafen, of course, wouldn't show her displeasure to Xi. Even if she was a bit unhappy, she could adjust her mood quickly. This Xichuan really made her dislike him.

  Yafen still likes people like Lingluo, clean and neat. When she is with Lingluo, Yafen's mood is always wonderful, and there is even a sense of anticipation.

  "Mr. Nishikawa, I don't know why you've come to see me"
