Chapter 196 Concert?
Chapter 196 Concert?
In the inn room, warm yellow light sprinkled on the table, illuminating the sumptuous food and wine.
Chen Yu raised his wine glass. The wine inside was clear and had a light fruity aroma.
"It's my blessing to be with you." Chen Yu sighed again, his eyes sweeping over Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan and Haitang.
Lin Qingxue's lips curled up slightly, and a hint of tenderness appeared in her eyes.
Liu Ruyan directly held Chen Yu's hand and said with a sweet smile, "Chen Yu, your words warm my heart."
Haitang was the youngest, but she also imitated her two older sisters, raised a glass of juice, and said in a baby voice, "Brother Chen Yu, I feel very happy too!"
Chen Yu looked at them, a warm feeling welling up in his heart. After traveling to this world for so long, although he had experienced many dangers and challenges, he had also gained precious friendships and love.
"Come on, let's toast!" Chen Yu said with a smile.
The four wine glasses clinked together, making a crisp sound.
After eating and drinking, Chen Yu yawned and said, "I'm a little tired. I'm going to rest first."
"Well, go ahead." Lin Qingxue said gently.
Chen Yu got up and returned to his room, lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep.
Outside the inn, the night deepened. The dark shadows on the rooftops continued to lurk silently, motionless, as if blending into the night.
He looked at the window of Chen Yu's room, with a cold light in his eyes.
"Chen Yu, you made me lose everything, I will never let you go!"
He spoke through gritted teeth, his voice low and hoarse.
The black shadow's name is Zhao Tianyu. He was originally an inner disciple of the Tianjian Sect. He has outstanding talent and a bright future.
However, since Chen Yu appeared, his life has changed dramatically.
The appearance of Chen Yu snatched away the glory that originally belonged to him and made him a laughing stock.
What made him even more unacceptable was that his beloved woman, Lin Qingxue, also looked at Chen Yu differently.
The seeds of jealousy and hatred took root in his heart and eventually devoured him.
He secretly planned a series of conspiracies against Chen Yu, but all ended in failure.
This time, he sneaked into the inn just to wait for an opportunity to take revenge on Chen Yu.
"Chen Yu, just wait for me, I will make you pay the price!"
Zhao Tianyu whispered again, his voice filled with resentment. He pulled out a black dagger from his bosom. The dagger gleamed coldly in the moonlight, just like his current mood.
Chen Yu was sleeping soundly in his room at the inn, unaware that danger was approaching step by step.
Outside the window, the night wind howled, the shadows of the trees swayed, and a crow landed on the roof, uttering a shrill cry, as if foreshadowing the coming disaster.
Zhao Tianyu took a deep breath, his eyes becoming firm. He gripped the dagger tightly in his hand, ready to carry out his revenge plan.
He approached Chen Yu's room cautiously, his footsteps light and without making any sound.
He was like a ghost, moving through the night, looking for opportunities.
He came to Chen Yu's window, gently pushed it open, and flashed into the room.
The room was pitch black, with only a faint moonlight shining through the window.
Chen Yu lay on the bed, breathing evenly and sleeping soundly.
Zhao Tianyu walked to the bedside, raised the dagger in his hand, and pointed it at Chen Yu's heart.
Zhao Tianyu held his breath and slowly brought the dagger down. At this moment, Chen Yu suddenly turned over, and the dagger grazed his arm, only scratching his sleeve.
Chen Yu opened his eyes dazedly and saw a dark shadow standing beside the bed with a dagger in his hand.
"Who is it?" Chen Yu woke up instantly and sat up suddenly.
Zhao Tianyu was startled by Chen Yu's actions, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
With the faint moonlight, Chen Yu could clearly see the face of the black shadow.
"Zhao Tianyu?" Chen Yu was a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet him here.
Zhao Tianyu picked up the dagger and stared at Chen Yu fiercely, "Chen Yu, go to hell!"
He raised the dagger again and stabbed at Chen Yu.
Chen Yu dodged quickly, and the dagger passed by his chest, leaving a shallow wound.
"Zhao Tianyu, are you crazy?" Chen Yu asked while dodging.
"Am I crazy? You forced me to do this!" Zhao Tianyu roared, "You took away everything from me. I hate you!"
He swung the dagger wildly, and every move was deadly.
Although Chen Yu was a little drunk, his reaction was still quick. He dodged Zhao Tianyu's attack and took the opportunity to kick him in the chest, knocking him to the ground.
Zhao Tianyu struggled to get up and pounced on Chen Yu again.
Chen Yu shook his head helplessly. It seemed that he had no choice but to use his new skills.
He took a deep breath, activated the "Soul Diva" skill, and began to sing.
"Ah... Five Rings, you have one more ring than Four Rings..."
As soon as Chen Yu opened his mouth, the whole room was filled with magical sounds.
Zhao Tianyu was stunned when he heard the song. He covered his ears and rolled on the ground in pain, his expression distorted.
"What the hell is this thing?" Zhao Tianyu shouted in pain.
Chen Yu continued to sing, and his voice became increasingly unpleasant, and Zhao Tianyu became increasingly painful.
Finally, Zhao Tianyu couldn't bear it anymore, fell to his knees and begged for mercy: "Chen Yu, I was wrong, please let me go!"
Chen Yu stopped singing, looked at Zhao Tianyu who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Zhao Tianyu, why did you do this?"
Zhao Tianyu lowered his head, not daring to look into Chen Yu's eyes, and whispered, "I'm jealous of you, I hate you, I want everything from you."
Chen Yu sighed and said, "Jealousy and hatred will only make you lose yourself. You should find your own path."
Zhao Tianyu remained silent.
Chen Yu continued, "Go away. I won't kill you, but I hope you won't do stupid things again."
Zhao Tianyu raised his head, looked at Chen Yu gratefully, then turned and left the room.
Chen Yu looked at Zhao Tianyu's back as he left, feeling mixed emotions.
He walked to the window, looked at the night outside, and his mind was full of thoughts.
At this time, Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan and Haitang heard the noise and rushed over.
"Chen Yu, what happened?" Lin Qingxue asked with concern.
Chen Yu told them what had just happened.
After hearing this, Lin Qingxue frowned slightly and said, "Chen Yu, you are too kind. You shouldn't let him go."
Liu Ruyan also said, "Yes, Chen Yu, people like this should be taught a lesson."
Haitang pulled Chen Yu's sleeve and said in a baby voice, "Brother Chen Yu, are you okay?"
Chen Yu smiled and touched Haitang's head, saying, "I'm fine, don't worry."
He turned to look at Lin Qingxue and Liu Ruyan and said, "I know you're worried about me, but I think everyone should have a chance to reform."
Lin Qingxue and Liu Ruyan looked at each other and nodded.
"Well, since you said that, we won't say anything more."
Lin Qingxue said.
Chen Yu smiled and said, "Thank you for your understanding."
At this time, the innkeeper also rushed over and asked what happened.
Chen Yu gave a brief explanation, and the innkeeper was also frightened after hearing it.
"Young man, it's really thanks to you. If it weren't for you, our inn would be in trouble tonight."
The innkeeper said gratefully.
Chen Yu waved his hand and said, "It's just a small favor, you're welcome."
The innkeeper added, "Young man, as a thank you, your accommodation tonight is free of charge. In addition, I will give you some compensation."
Chen Yu did not refuse and agreed with a smile.
The innkeeper quickly told his staff to prepare some gifts.
After a while, the waiter brought an exquisite wooden box containing a sparkling night pearl.
"Young man, this is the treasure of our inn. Please accept it."
The innkeeper said respectfully.
Chen Yu took the wooden box and opened it. He saw the night pearl emitting a soft light, illuminating the entire room.
"This gift is too valuable. I can't accept it," Chen Yu said.
The innkeeper quickly said, "Young man, please accept this. This is a small token of our appreciation."
Seeing that the innkeeper was so insistent, Chen Yu stopped refusing and accepted the night pearl.
When the innkeeper saw Chen Yu accept the gift, a relieved smile appeared on his face.
"Young man, you should get some rest early. If you need anything, just let me know."
The innkeeper said.
Chen Yu nodded and said, "Okay, thank you."
The innkeeper said goodbye and left.
Chen Yu placed the night pearl on the table, then returned to the room with Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan, and Haitang.
In the room, the night pearl emitted a soft light, illuminating the entire room.
Chen Yu looked at Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan and Haitang, his heart filled with happiness.
"It's my blessing to be with you." Chen Yu sighed again.
When Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan and Haitang heard Chen Yu's words, they all showed sweet smiles on their faces.
Outside the window, the night deepens and the sky is dotted with stars.
It was late at night. In the inn room, the night pearl emitted a soft light, illuminating the entire room. Chen Yu, Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan, and Haitang sat around a table filled with fruits, snacks, and several pots of fine tea.
"Chen Yu, where do you think we should go tomorrow?" Liu Ruyan asked Chen Yu with her chin supported by her hand and her eyes moving.
"Yes, Brother Chen Yu, where are we going to play?" Haitang also came over, blinking her big eyes, looking at Chen Yu with anticipation.
Chen Yu put down the teacup in his hand, smiled, and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. How about you give me some suggestions?"
"Why don't we go explore the Misty Forest?" Lin Qingxue suggested. "I heard a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum appeared there recently, and it can improve your cultivation."
Before Chen Yu could say anything, Liu Ruyan said, "No, no, the Misty Forest is so dangerous. What if we encounter some powerful monster?"
"Yes, yes," Haitang nodded repeatedly, "I heard there are man-eating monsters in the Misty Forest. They're really scary."
Chen Yu looked at them talking back and forth, smiled and shook his head, and said, "Okay, okay, let's not go to the Misty Forest. Let's go somewhere else."
"Then where are we going?" Liu Ruyan asked.
Chen Yu thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we go to Luoxia Valley? I heard the scenery there is very beautiful, and this time is the season when the Luoxia flowers are in full bloom. The mountains and plains are covered with Luoxia flowers, which is very beautiful just thinking about it."
"Luoxia Valley? Great, great! I heard the Luoxia flowers there can be used to refine a medicinal elixir called 'Luoxia Pill', which is good for beautifying the skin."
When Liu Ruyan heard that they were going to Luoxia Valley, she immediately became interested.
"Really? Then I want to go too. I want to become more beautiful too."
Haitang also said excitedly.
Lin Qingxue looked at the two excited people, shook her head helplessly, and said, "You guys only know how to show off."
"How can this be called vanity? Everyone has a desire for beauty."
