Chapter 59 My younger sister cried and was reluctant to part.
In the center of the coffee table in the Lu family's living room, a bright red college admission notice stands out.
The large, gold-embossed school name gleamed in the sunlight; it was Jiangzhou University, a place countless students desperately wanted to enter.
Lu Jingchen put down the phone with the admissions office he had just hung up, picked up the admission notice on the table, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"It says to register at school on September 7th."
"However, I plan to go there a few days earlier and buy a house near the school so I won't live in the school dormitory."
Lu Qingyuan, who was sitting to the side peeling an orange, suddenly stopped in her tracks.
The smile on her lips vanished instantly, and her eyes reddened slightly.
She looked up at Lu Jingchen with a pitiful expression, her face full of reluctance.
Lu Jingchen turned his head and met his sister's tearful eyes, and couldn't help but chuckle.
He reached out and ruffled Lu Qingyuan's hair, his voice so gentle it could melt your heart.
"Why the long face? Are you reluctant to see me go?"
Lu Qingyuan pouted and muttered softly, "You're going to study in Jiangzhou, so I'll be all alone at home from now on."
As she spoke, she sniffed, her eyes becoming even redder.
Lu Jingchen was amused by her cute appearance and ruffled her hair.
"Silly girl, you're going to take the entrance exam for Jiangzhou University next year anyway, a year will pass in the blink of an eye."
"Besides, I'll come back to see you as soon as I get my vacation, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Qingyuan sniffed and her expression softened considerably.
She arrogantly raised her chin and snorted.
"Then you'll have to come back to see me often, otherwise I'll turn your room into a storage room and throw all your things away!"
Lu Jingchen smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I promise I'll come back often."
But his heart was completely softened; he had turned down offers from Tsinghua and Peking Universities and insisted on choosing Jiangzhou University instead.
He wanted to be closer to his sister so he could take care of her and prevent anyone from bullying her when he wasn't home.
Thousands of miles away, amidst towering mountains and lofty peaks, clouds and mist swirl, creating an ethereal and otherworldly atmosphere.
An ancient and majestic temple, hidden deep in the mountains, is the core of the Yu family sect.
Zeng Dequan and his junior brother Wang darted through the mountain stream like stray dogs.
The two were disheveled and pale as they staggered to the temple gate.
At the entrance of the temple, Yu Liang and Yu Yan were sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed in meditation.
Sensing the disheveled state of the two, it suddenly opened its eyes, its gaze flashing with sharp light.
Yu Liang spoke in a deep voice, his tone tinged with displeasure: "Junior Brother Zeng, Junior Brother Wang, what happened to you two?"
"I sent you to bring the Shen family's daughter back. Where is she?"
Zeng Dequan clutched his chest, staggered forward a step, his face filled with lingering fear.
He spoke hastily, his voice trembling: "Senior Brother Yu Liang, we were ordered to retrieve Shen Tuohai's daughter, but we encountered a master on the way!"
"Even the two of us combined were no match for him. We couldn't even withstand one of his punches! We almost didn't make it back!"
Yu Liang's brows furrowed instantly, and his face darkened.
"You didn't announce the name of our Yu family sect?"
Zeng Dequan gritted his teeth and roared, adding fuel to the fire, "I told you! Why didn't I tell you?!"
"But he completely disregarded the Yu family! He even threatened that if we dared to cause any more trouble, he would raze our Yu family sect to the ground!"
In the close-up shot, Yu Liang's expression suddenly changed drastically, burning with rage.
He slammed his fist hard on the bluestone slab in front of him with a loud bang.
The hard bluestone slab shattered instantly, sending fragments flying, demonstrating just how terrifying the force of that punch was.
Yu Liang roared in fury, "Arrogant! They're utterly courting death!"
"A mere nobody dares to insult my Yu family sect? He's courting death!"
Yu Yan, who was standing to the side, also suddenly stood up, his whole body exuding murderous aura, and his eyes were so sinister that they could drip water.
"He dares to lay a hand on anyone from the Yu family and dares to spout such arrogant words. He's got a death wish!"
"Senior brother, I'll take some men down the mountain right now and bring this brat's head back!"
Upon seeing this, Zeng Dequan hurriedly added in a trembling voice, "Senior brother, no! That person shattered my Five Directions Thunder Seal with a single punch!"
"Judging from his cultivation level, he's at least at the Golden Core stage! We're no match for him!"
Upon hearing the words "Golden Core Stage," Yu Liang and Yu Yan, who were about to lash out, suddenly froze.
The raging fury in his eyes was instantly replaced by deep fear, and his murderous aura froze.
Jindan period!
In the mortal realm where spiritual energy is scarce, Golden Core cultivators are absolutely at the very top of the pyramid!
In their Yu family sect, only the patriarch who was in seclusion had barely reached the threshold of the Golden Core stage!
Yu Liang took a deep breath, a shadow of gloom flashing in his eyes, and a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his back.
Fortunately, I didn't impulsively go down the mountain, otherwise, let alone take revenge, the entire sect would probably have been destroyed!
Yu Liang lowered his voice and said to Yu Yan, "Golden Core stage... This person's background is unknown, and his strength is unfathomable. We must not act rashly."
"To be on the safe side, let's put this matter aside for now and report back to the clan leader after he comes out of seclusion, so that he can make a decision."
Yu Yan's face turned pale and then red, and his clenched fists slowly loosened, filled with resentment and helplessness.
He could only grit his teeth and nod: "Okay, I'll listen to my senior brother."
Zeng Dequan and his junior brother Wang exchanged a glance, both seeing lingering fear in each other's eyes.
Luckily they ran fast, otherwise they might have really been doomed in Jiangcheng today.
The bustling commercial street in Jiangcheng is teeming with people and vehicles, creating a vibrant and lively atmosphere.
Lu Jingchen was carrying seven or eight shopping bags, all filled with new clothes and snacks for Lu Qingyuan, and he looked very relaxed.
Lu Qingyuan affectionately linked arms with him, skipping and pointing excitedly at the milk tea shop ahead.
"Bro! I want that taro bubble tea from that place! Double the taro!"
Lu Jingchen smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll buy it for you. Buy as much as you want."
Just then, a cheerful and pleasant call came from behind.
"Lu Jingchen?"
Lu Jingchen paused, and subconsciously turned around.
Not far away, Su Muyue was standing with a pretty girl.
She looked at Lu Jingchen with surprise and delight in her eyes, and quickly walked towards him.
Su Muyue walked up to him, smiling, and said, "It really is you! I thought I was seeing things!"
"What a coincidence, to run into you here."
Lu Jingchen looked at Su Muyue in front of him and raised an eyebrow slightly.
After the college entrance exam results were released, the two lost contact and never expected to run into each other here.
He smiled faintly and replied, "It's quite a coincidence. I'm accompanying my sister to buy some things."
Su Muyue then noticed Lu Qingyuan beside him and greeted her with a smile.
Her gaze returned to Lu Jingchen, her eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation.
"By the way, your college admission results are out, right? With your score, you're definitely in Tsinghua or Peking University. Which school did you choose?"
Standing to the side, Lu Qingyuan immediately raised her head proudly and blurted out, "My brother chose Jiangzhou University! He'll be studying in Jiangzhou from now on!"
Su Muyue was stunned for a moment, her face full of disbelief.
With the seventh-highest score in the province, a top student sought after by Tsinghua and Peking Universities, he actually chose Jiangzhou University?
She never expected that Lu Jingchen would make such a choice.
