Chapter 365 My Man is a True Man

Inside the Star Tower.

The atmosphere was warm in the hazy, gray space.

Lu Chuan and Liu Fuyao leaned against a desolate pile of rubble.

Having just experienced a passionate encounter, both of them were in high spirits.

Liu Fuyao clung tightly to Lu Chuan's chest, drawing circles on his chest with her fingers.

Lu Chuan grabbed her mischievous little hand, pretending to be fierce.

"Stop fooling around."

"If you keep causing trouble, I won't be so polite."

Liu Fuyao stuck out her little tongue and asked curiously.

"People are just curious."

"Brother-in-law, how did you get in?"

"This Star Tower is the Federation's top treasure; only the top ten teams in the Hundred Cities Tournament can enter."

"You didn't even participate in the competition, so how did you suddenly appear here?"

She was puzzled by this question.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan sighed.

"Well, that's a long story."

"Actually, I came from Buzhou Mountain in the Western Regions, which is the sacred site of the sage."

Liu Fuyao froze instantly, her whole body trembling.

next moment.

She sat bolt upright, utterly shocked.

"Mount Buzhou?"

"A sacred site for saints?"

"Brother-in-law, you went to the Western Regions?"

"How did you get there?"

At this time, although she was only a minor martial arts master, the Hundred Cities Tournament broadened her horizons, and she was no longer the little girl from Nancheng she once was.

The Hundred Cities Competition brings together all the talents of the Federation.

It's not surprising that she had heard of the Western Regions, Mount Buzhou, and the sacred sites of sages.

only……

What she never expected was that her brother-in-law would go to the sage's temple.

Moreover, they entered the Star Tower from the sage's dojo.

This news is absolutely shocking.

Lu Chuan nodded.

"Um."

"Flew all the way from the south of the city."

"They traversed a vast mountain range spanning 100,000 li, and then climbed Mount Buzhou."

Lu Chuan spoke of it casually.

After hearing this, Liu Fuyao was completely dumbfounded.

My mind started buzzing again.

Crossing 100,000 miles of mountains?

That's a forbidden zone for humans!

It's full of terrifying demon kings and demon emperors.

Even Martial Emperor level experts face a near-certain death if they go in.

Not to mention that they also had to climb Mount Buzhou.

The oppressive aura of the sage atop Mount Buzhou is a terrifying presence capable of crushing a person alive.

"Brother-in-law..."

"You...you're insane?"

"Do you know how dangerous that is!"

Liu Fuyao's eyes were red-rimmed.

She gripped Lu Chuan's arm tightly with both hands, her voice trembling.

Seeing her anxious expression, Lu Chuan felt a warmth in his heart.

"It's alright, look at me, I'm perfectly fine."

"A great calamity has struck the southwest region. Everyone is working hard, and all martial artists are preparing for battle and death."

"I only did what I could."

"I did get injured while climbing Buzhou Mountain. I broke a few bones and my meridians were shattered."

"Fortunately, I was saved by a saint, and then they threw me into this Star Tower as compensation."

Lu Chuan spoke casually.

Liu Fuyao felt as if her heart was being torn apart.

The bone is broken.

The meridians are broken.

Is this what you call a minor injury?

This is clearly a brush with death!

She looked at the man in front of her.

For the sake of the lives of hundreds of millions of people in Nancheng, and to seek help, he was willing to risk his own life.

He traversed the forbidden zone, defying the oppressive aura of the sage.

What courage that is!

What courage!

At this moment, Liu Fuyao's love completely overwhelmed her, and she could no longer control herself, hugging Lu Chuan tightly once again.

"Brother-in-law..."

"You're so stupid."

"Don't push yourself like that anymore, do you hear me!"

Large tears streamed down Liu Fuyao's face.

Only now did she realize just how much the man she loved had been carrying.

He is a true man of integrity and upright character.

This is the man Liu Fuyao has chosen.

Lu Chuan patted her back and comforted her softly.

"Alright, stop crying."

"I'm already a nine-star Martial Emperor. Now, even if I encounter a Demon Lord, I can still put up a fight."

"Um."

"But I still don't want you to take any risks."

Liu Fuyao's voice was muffled, tinged with tears.

The two embraced tightly.

It seems there's a fear that this encounter was just a dream.

"Buzz!"

Just then, the entire interior of the Star Tower suddenly trembled violently.

The hazy fog began to swirl.

Lu Chuan frowned and looked up at the sky.

"What's wrong now?"

Liu Fuyao was also taken aback.

She quickly stepped out of Lu Chuan's arms.

Seemingly remembering something, he hurriedly pulled a silver timer from his body.

On the timer.

The red numbers are flashing wildly.

"Brother-in-law, the ten days are up!"

Liu Fuyao looked at the timer, her expression changing.

Lu Chuan was stunned.

"Ten days?"

"So fast?"

He was busy cultivating inside the tower and following in the footsteps of the Star Emperor, so he had no idea how much time had passed outside.

Liu Fuyao nodded.

"Yes, there is a limit to the time we can spend cultivating in the tower."

"Once ten days have passed, the Star Tower will automatically teleport us out."

"Brother-in-law, what about you?"

Liu Fuyao looked at Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan was helpless.

"I don't know."

"When those saints threw me in here, they didn't even give me a timer."

Lu Chuan was also unsure.

At the same time, he secretly wondered if he could take advantage of Liu Fuyao's teleportation to sneak out with her.

He didn't want to stay in this awful place for another second.

We still don't know what the situation is like in the south of the city.

If the demon race has already breached the city walls, then the southern city will be in complete danger.

however.

Before Lu Chuan could come up with a solution...

Suddenly, the timer in Liu Fuyao's hand emitted a blinding white light.

A burst of white light erupted instantly.

It completely enveloped Liu Fuyao.

"Brother-in-law!"

Upon seeing this, Liu Fuyao exclaimed in surprise and tried to reach out to grab Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan quickly reached out to pull her.

But the moment their fingertips touched, Liu Fuyao vanished into thin air.

Only a faint fragrance remained in the place.

Lu Chuan's hand froze in mid-air.

Looking at the empty space ahead, he was speechless.

"Depend on."

"You're leaving already?"

He was very upset.

I was originally thinking of getting a ride.

Now he is all alone again.

Looking around, the gray mist was still swirling, and the desolate plain stretched as far as the eye could see.

There was no indication that he was to be teleported out.

Lu Chuan sighed.

"Am I just supposed to keep waiting here?"

"How long are those old bastards going to lock me up?!"

Enraged, Lu Chuan kicked a piece of gravel at his feet.

The gravel crashed onto the ground in the distance.

It made a muffled sound.

He is now extremely anxious, yet helpless.

He could only sit cross-legged and continue circulating the Reverse Blood Remnant Life Technique to stabilize his newly broken-through Nine-Star Martial Emperor realm.
