"He's Lou Cheng."
The four simple words made the atmosphere solemn. Zhang Li, Guo Guo, and the others were silent for more than ten seconds.
"Look, this is the Heavenly Son of the Age." Ji Lingxi was the first to come back to her senses. She smiled and looked at her companions. Then she turned to Yan Zheke and complained, "When they heard Lou Cheng was coming, they were so excited and curious that they wanted to follow me home. They wanted to see what the Heavenly Son of the Age looked like and see if he had three heads and six arms."
"So I'm a monster?" Lou Cheng replied humorously.
"No, no, no. You're not a monster. You've been practicing martial arts for a year and a half and you're already at the top of the Sixth Pin. You're not a monster, you're a superman!" Zhang Li smiled.
He was relatively calm. He turned the dark brown Buddhist prayer beads in his left hand.
"Yes, a superman!" Han Zhengcao agreed with an exaggerated smile. In the end, he asked in confusion, "Lou Cheng, why do I feel that you're a little different from the one on TV?"
"What's different?" Lou Cheng looked at Yan Zheke with a smile and found that she was just as confused as he was.
It had only been five or six days since he last entered the broadcast.
Guo Guo was a short and petite girl, but her facial features were quite imposing. At this time, she also muttered, "It's a little different. The you on TV is more, more, more, more flamboyant. You have a kind of temperament that makes people not dare to look at you directly."
"Haha, I know what's going on. During a fierce battle, you'll definitely release your momentum to oppress and influence your opponent's mind. When the battle was over and you were interviewed, you still haven't completely calmed down," Lou Cheng said in realization.
His TV appearance was considered his "battle form".
"So that's how it is. When you're idle, you're like a forest, but when you're fighting, you're like a fire." Zhang Li nodded thoughtfully.
None of them were interested in martial arts. They would only watch the matches that attracted a lot of attention. Therefore, even though there were many powerful seniors around them, they didn't notice the details.
After such small talk, the atmosphere was relatively lively. Ji Lingxi, Han Zhengcao, and the others sat down and began to chat about various things.
It was obvious that they were focusing on Lou Cheng. Seeing that he was not very interested, they did not mention the rosary beads, the yellow jade ambergris, and other things. Instead, they talked about the gossip of the martial arts circle.
Lou Cheng didn't care about what they were talking about. Even if one of their collections was worth more than all of his savings, he didn't feel the slightest bit inferior. Instead, he took it as an opportunity to broaden his horizons and listen quietly.
Since he had the confidence, there was no harm in doing so.
Time ticked by. Lou Cheng tapped on his phone, looked at the screen, and got up with a smile.
"It's getting late. I need to rest. You guys take your time."
His tone was normal, but there was a hint of irrefutability in it. Ji Lingxi stood up as well and asked in surprise, "So early?"
"Since he started practicing martial arts, he's been living like an old man. Yeah, so am I." Yan Zheke explained for her boyfriend with a smile. She also thought of an excuse for herself.
"Then it's time for us to go back." Zhang Li turned the prayer beads and smiled. "We're going out to sea tomorrow. Do you want to join us? Let's go fishing and get some fresh air. Oh right, there are a few fights on the open sea with no restrictions on life and death. "
There were referees in the Challenge Tournament. It was more exciting than exciting. Some rich people privately organized underground Challenge Tournament in war-torn areas and on the open sea to satisfy their own desires. Challenge Tournament without referees!
Even if no one died in the real fight, there would definitely be scenes of blood splattering everywhere and bones breaking, which would excite the beastly side of people.
Of course, the fighters who were willing to make quick money in the Challenge Tournament weren't very strong. If there was a Dan stage, Seventh Pin or Sixth Pin fighter, even if they owed a lot of money, there would be someone to vouch for them and they would have the opportunity to repay their debts slowly.
"No need." Lou Cheng glanced at Yan Zheke and declined with a smile.
Tomorrow, he would stay at home with Ke and massage her belly. He had left this day empty in his previously canceled travel plan!
"Alright, I'll find you next time out at sea. With your Listening Skill, you'll definitely catch a lot of fish." Zhang Li didn't insist. He left the Ji family's old house with Han Zhengcao and Guo Guo and got into his SUV.
He took off the dark brown prayer beads and put them on the gearshift. After a few seconds of silence, he asked, "What do you think? What do you think of Lou Cheng? "
"He's quite gentle, friendly, and introverted." Han Zhengcao rubbed his eye bags and answered seriously.
"But don't you think his aura is very strong? It's the kind of feeling where you can do whatever you want and we can only listen obediently … "Guo Guo frowned and said softly.
"Haha, that's normal. That's the confidence of a Mighty One accumulated through countless victories. My mother was the same. She didn't need to get angry or speak loudly. As long as she decided something, I wouldn't dare to say a word." Han Zhengcao laughed at himself. "Let alone a Heavenly Son of the era like him."
"Yeah." Zhang Li started the engine and started the car.
"Anyway, regardless of whether he can become a Physical Invulnerability Expert in the future, I think he'll definitely become an Inhuman," Han Zhengcao added. "We're not strong and we don't have the heart to practice martial arts. It's good to make more friends like him!"
"Yo, I didn't expect our Young Master Han, who loves wine, cars, and women, to say something like that." Guo Guo laughed.
Han Zhengcao was a typical spoiled brat.
"This is called being prepared for danger in times of peace!" He replied.
Zhang Li nodded in agreement and said slowly, "I didn't advise you in vain. Why do you think Lingxi had to come back today? Is it because of their sisterly relationship? "
"Isn't it?" Guo Guo and Han Zhengcao asked in surprise.
Zhang Li chuckled. "The Ji family is a typical martial arts family. Although they have a lot of assets, money, and power, they're still ranked by their strength …"
Before he could finish, Guo Guo interrupted him. She played with her wavy hair and frowned. "Uncle Ji and his siblings are very close. They're very close."
"That's because Old Master and Old Madam are pressuring him. Haha, where there are people, there will be the underworld. Where there is money and power, there will be disputes. How many mistresses did Uncle Ji keep outside in order to have a strong son and daughter to stabilize his foundation? It's a pity that none of them are good enough. He doesn't even dare to bring them home. " Zhang Li sighed. "Lingxi has shed countless tears because of this. She may seem like a carefree playboy, but she knows better than anyone else.
"She knows she can't achieve anything in martial arts, so she doesn't want to fight for anything. She just wants to maintain her current status and life. It's the most reasonable and practical choice for her to continue befriending Yan Zheke. Especially since she has an amazing boyfriend, the kind that's really amazing …"
Lou Cheng had been interacting with the Heavenly Sons of China recently, making it seem like there were many young martial artists of this level. In fact, there might not even be one in several provinces. At least Zhang Li and Han Zhengcao were around. Previously, only Lin Que was slightly close.
In a situation where a high-ranked Dan Stage Inhuman could become the upper class of a province, it was normal for the Heavenly Sons of China, who had a high chance of reaching the physical invulnerability stage, to be highly valued.
"Brother Li …" Han Zhengcao was stunned. He couldn't help but gasp. "You're really good at hiding your strength!"
You see things so clearly!
Zhang Li sneered. "My family has a lot of people. If I were really stupid, I would have been swallowed up by others. How could I be the young master?"
He sighed again. "I'm really envious of Lou Cheng and the others. They're strong and don't have to worry about scheming … Anyway, I'm waiting for a chance to help him or be helped by him."
Either way, it would improve their relationship.
…
In the guest room of the Ji family's old house, Lou Cheng didn't try to sneak into the room under the watch of a physical invulnerability expert. After washing up, he lay on the bed and received a call from his mother.
After a few words, Qi Fang said mysteriously, "Your brother has made a fortune recently!"
"Huh?" Lou Cheng was dumbfounded.
Lou Yuanwei really succeeded in starting his own business? I haven't heard him mention it recently!
"Erzi has expanded his business to Xiushan. He asked your brother to help him and even gave him shares." Qi Fang gossiped excitedly.
She wasn't jealous because of this. After all, her son was very promising and not just anyone could catch up with him.
Lou Cheng was stunned for a moment.
"Who's Erzi?"
Qi Fang didn't know what to say. After a while, she said, "He's a relative from Qingfu. He often comes to visit your grandparents recently."
"Ah, I remember now! He's a nice guy. "Lou Cheng said perfunctorily.
"He has no taste. How could he ask your brother for help? Look at how many things he has failed." Qi Fang insisted that Lou Yuanwei didn't have the ability to start his own business.
"It doesn't matter. After all, we're not the ones who suffer losses." Lou Cheng laughed.
"That's true. Also, your dad got promoted recently. Fatty Guo put him in charge of the whole factory and gave him shares … Cheng, don't you think it's because of you? You just won the national championship and Fatty Guo mentioned it. What's that idiom? What's that … "Qi Fang didn't know much about it.
"Icing on the cake." Lou Cheng helped his mother add, "Fatty Guo is a nice guy. Didn't he help me in my hour of need back then?"
"That's true. Anyway, if he really asks you for help, don't worry about us. Help if you can. Don't worry if you can't." Qi Fang said with concern.
"Yes, yes, yes." Lou Cheng replied with a smile.
After the phone call ended and the surroundings quieted down, he sighed with emotion.
After he won the national championship and gained the reputation of being the Heavenly Son of the Age, everything around him was changing. It might have happened in the past, but it was definitely not as obvious as now. Without him saying anything, the fate of his relatives and friends had changed …
Until now, Lou Cheng really understood what it meant to change one's status.
