Humans, starting with chat groups, rampage across the heavens.

If Lu Chen still can't figure out the origin of this blue lotus in his sea of ​​suffering by now, then all those novels he read in his previous life would have been for nothing.

Judging from the various unusual phenomena of this green lotus, it is certain that the green lotus in Lu Chen's Bitter Sea is related to the Chaos Green Lotus mentioned in the ancient texts of his previous life that gave birth to the great god Pangu.

Regardless of its origin, Lu Chen didn't care what it was; since it was inside his body, it was his.

Lu Chen also wanted to try whether the green lotus in his body could really grow to the level of the mythical Chaos Green Lotus in the future.

However, these are things to consider later. What needs to be done now is to pray for the souls of the Obama family.

Lu Chen's figure vanished from the spot in an instant. Xiao Yan and the others only saw a blur flash by before the fleeing members of the Obama family fell to the ground one by one, as if they were being mowed down.

A moment later, Lu Chen returned to Xiao Yan and Xu Qi'an's side. At this time, none of the people from the Obama family were still standing alive.

"Huo Huo, your dad and the others are here. Go and explain things yourself. We'll go back and rest for now."

……

Half an hour later.

The inner courtyard of the Xiao family, Xiao Yan's courtyard.

Xiao Yan, his face glowing, strode in from outside.

"Brother Lu, Brother Bai Piao, thank you so much this time!"

Xiao Yan said excitedly:

"You wouldn't believe it, but when my father and those elders saw what happened, their eyes almost popped out of their sockets."

"After they understood what had happened, the way they looked at me was absolutely shocked, unbelievable!"

"Oh, right, Brother Lu, this is for you."

Xiao Yan took out a piece of dark blue ancient jade from his pocket and handed it to Lu Chen.

The ancient jade has an unremarkable appearance, with artificial cuts along its edges. However, upon closer inspection, one can discover that the interior of the jade is covered with dense, mysterious patterns, resembling blood vessels in a bizarre manner.

This is the ancient jade of Tuoshe that belongs to the Xiao family.

After examining it curiously for a few moments, Lu Chen casually put it away.

"Brother Lu, Brother Bai Piao, and Miss Rong'er, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Let me treat you to a good meal tomorrow!"

Xiao Yan extended an invitation.

"You're so poor you have to sell yourself to your girlfriend to borrow money for medicine, how can you expect to treat us well?"

Xu Qi'an said with a smile.

"That was before!"

"I'm different now!"

Xiao Yan tilted his head back high and said smugly:

"I have done such a great service to the family this time, so naturally I deserve a reward."

"My father just gave me a huge sum of money. Tomorrow, all your expenses will be on me!"

"Young Master Xiao is so generous!"

Xu Qi'an said in a cooperative tone.

"We really can't just leave like this."

"We've done you such a big favor today, we can't just leave without taking anything in return!"

Lu Chen then spoke with a faint smile:

"However, you should keep that little bit of money for yourself, Young Master Xiao. It's more satisfying to fleece your big fat sheep, Xun'er."

"Huo Huo, call your sister Xun'er over tomorrow and tell her I want to discuss a big business deal with her."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Xiao Yan quickly realized what was happening and looked at Lu Chen, saying:

"Is Brother Lu planning to use that Imperial Jade to make a deal with Sister Xun'er?"

"That's right!"

"The ancient clan is so wealthy and powerful that a few favors from them are enough for us brothers to eat our fill for several meals."

Lu Chen smiled and nodded.

"Great! I love taking advantage of these rich people!"

Xu Qi'an also spoke up.

"Okay, then I'll go and call Xun'er over tomorrow."

Xiao Yan nodded in agreement.

……

the next day.

In Xiao Yan's courtyard.

"Brother Lu, I've brought Sister Xun'er with me."

As soon as Xiao Yan stepped into the courtyard, he started shouting at the top of his lungs.

Lu Chen and the other two were sitting around a round table in the courtyard when Xiao Yan pulled Xiao Xun'er to stand in front of Lu Chen.

"Miss Xun'er, please have a seat. Huo Huo, you don't need to sit down."

Lu Chen greeted him warmly.

Xiao Yan glanced at the only empty seat left, silently stood to the side, and gave his seat to Xiao Xun'er.

Xiao Xun'er didn't stand on ceremony. After sitting down on the stool, she spoke gently:

"I heard from Brother Xiao Yan that Young Master Lu wants to make a deal with Xun'er. What kind of deal is it?"

Lu Chen smiled faintly and spoke slowly:

"I know that Miss Xun'er is the eldest daughter of the ancient clan and has an extraordinary status in the clan, but I'm afraid Miss Xun'er alone cannot make the decision on the contents of this transaction."

"So please, Miss Xun'er, call your father over. I suppose you have a way to contact him?"

"this……"

Upon hearing Lu Chen reveal her identity, Xiao Xun'er was immediately startled and instinctively turned to look at Xiao Yan.

Seeing that Xiao Yan's expression hadn't changed at all, Xiao Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief, but said to him with a slightly reproachful tone:

"So Brother Xiao Yan already knew Xun'er's identity all along."

Xiao Yan quickly explained:

"No, no!"

"I only found out recently, and I never expected that Xun'er's background was so amazing."

Xiao Xun'er didn't dwell on the issue, and turned her gaze back to Lu Chen, saying:

"I wonder if Young Master Lu could tell Xun'er the specific details of the transaction?"

"This is what we're trading."

"This should be familiar to Miss Xun'er, right?"

Lu Chen threw the Imperial Jade onto the table in front of him and said.

Upon seeing the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, a look of surprise flashed across Xiao Xun'er's face for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure and said slowly:

"It seems Young Master Lu really knows a lot. I just wonder which family Young Master Lu comes from?"

Lu Chen smiled faintly and said:

"Miss Xun'er, you don't need to think too much. I am not from any of the eight ancient clans."

"I came here this time entirely because of Huo Huo's invitation, and this piece of imperial jade is also the reward Huo Huo paid me."

Xiao Xun'er was deep in thought, but her expression remained unchanged as she softly spoke:

"Since Young Master Lu knows my identity, he must also know that someone of my father's status cannot easily leave the Ancient Realm."

"So, what does Young Master Lu want? Why don't you tell me first?"

"No, this deal can only be made by your father in person."

Lu Chen shook his head firmly and said:

"This transaction involves a considerable sum. Although Miss Xun'er is a young lady of the ancient clan, with Huo Huo's influence here, I can't very well make things difficult for you. I'm sure Miss Xun'er wouldn't want to be caught in the middle, unable to choose between the ancient clan and Huo Huo, would she?"

"So let your father come instead."
