Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 556 - 516: Reuniting with the Gu Sisters_1

Lu Chuan returned to the roadside and waited for another taxi, then started heading back toward Capital City’s downtown area.

Sitting in the car, Lu Chuan took out his cellphone and dialed Gu Xiaorou’s number.

After a short wait, the call was answered.

Gu Xiaorou’s warm greeting came from the other end of the phone.

"I finally got a call from you again. How is it going, have you returned to Cathay?"

"I’ve already arrived in Capital City."

"So soon? You didn’t even give me a heads-up, so I could have come to pick you up."

"I didn’t want to trouble you, and next, we should be getting ready to head to the Kunlun Domain."

"I’m free anytime, we can head out whenever you want. Oh right, did you manage to obtain the Origin Divine Fire?"

Lu Chuan chuckled and said, "Of course I did, otherwise would I have come back?"

"That’s the second Divine Fire you’ve got. Your strength must have broken through again. I wonder when I’ll be able to reach the Martial King Realm."

After saying this, she sighed as though she felt the goal was still a long way off.

"Are you coming back tonight? Have you had dinner? How about we go out for a meal together?"

Gu Xiaorou asked.

"No problem, once I get to the downtown area, let’s meet up at a restaurant."

"Good, I’ll send you the location."

Lu Chuan hung up the phone and received the location coordinates sent by Gu Xiaorou.

Soon after, the taxi arrived at the city center.

Once in the downtown area, the streets became congested.

It took almost half an hour before Lu Chuan finally reached the dinner location.

In front of a stylish hot pot restaurant, Lu Chuan could see Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang from a distance.

Gu Xiaosang had her arms wrapped around Gu Xiaorou’s and was clinging tightly to her from behind.

Gu Xiaorou wore a white dress, her black hair cascaded over her shoulders. Her delicate beauty attracted the glances of many passersby.

Next to her, Gu Xiaosang was dressed in a pink skirt, white stockings, and black leather shoes.

Snuggled up to Gu Xiaorou, she appeared charmingly cute.

The two sisters were breathtakingly beautiful, drawing many admiring looks.

Lu Chuan walked over to them, and upon seeing Lu Chuan, Gu Xiaorou hurriedly greeted him.

"Lu Chuan, long time no see!"

Seeing Gu Xiaorou, Lu Chuan smiled, "You’ve grown even more beautiful since I last saw you."

After being praised, Gu Xiaorou couldn’t help but show a smile and continued, "How was everything in America?"

"It was okay, I ran into some danger, but luckily, I resolved it."

At this moment, Gu Xiaosang looked at Lu Chuan and asked quickly, "Hey, do you only think my sister has become prettier?"

What she implied was that she wanted Lu Chuan to compliment her as well.

"Didn’t you dislike wearing this outfit? Why are you still wearing it out?"

Lu Chuan eyed her, curiously asking.

Hearing this, Gu Xiaosang immediately felt a bit shy. She had been reluctant to wear such cute clothing due to her status as a martial artist.

However, she couldn’t resist because the clothes were pretty and ended up wearing them anyway.

"This is how the young girls in Capital City dress, is there something wrong with me wearing this?"

Lu Chuan shrugged, "Of course, there’s nothing wrong, but if we’re going back to the Kunlun Domain tomorrow, are you still planning to wear this outfit?"

Gu Xiaosang suddenly panicked. If she dared to wear such flashy clothes from the secular world back to her family, she would definitely not escape being gossiped about.

"I... I’ll just change it tomorrow."

She felt it a pity in her heart that she would have to say goodbye to these pretty clothes.

"Let’s go, let’s go in for dinner and then discuss how we’ll proceed tomorrow."

Gu Xiaorou led the way into the hot pot restaurant and chose a private room to sit down.

Once they were seated in the private room, Gu Xiaosang couldn’t help but ask curiously, "What’s America like? Is it beautiful?"

"It’s alright."

"Are there any fun places there? Tell me about them."

She widened her curious eyes again.

"I went there mainly to refine the Divine Fire, not for a vacation. If you’re so curious, why not take a trip and see for yourself when you have the time?"

Gu Xiaosang shook her head, "Such a dangerous place—I absolutely wouldn’t go if it weren’t necessary."

"Lu Chuan, how smoothly did the Divine Fire refining process go for you?"

Gu Xiaorou looked at Lu Chuan and asked.

"It went relatively smoothly, but I accidentally discovered something there that seems quite important."

Gu Xiaosang quickly asked, "Really? What kind of treasure? Tell us about it."

"It’s this."

Since the Gu sisters were good friends of Lu Chuan, he took out the black box without any hesitation.

Upon opening it, they saw a tree branch lying inside.

Seeing this, Gu Xiaosang’s face darkened as she asked, "Are you pulling my leg? Where did you pick up this twig?"

"As if I have nothing better to do than to fool around with you two. Why don’t you take a closer look?"

Gu Xiaosang crossed her arms skeptically and said, "Even if I look closer, it’s still just a stick."

Lu Chuan, wearing a speechless expression, didn’t bother to argue with her and turned his gaze to Gu Xiaorou.

"Xiaorou, do you see anything?"

"I can feel it. This branch contains a tremendous amount of Spiritual Energy."

Gu Xiaorou said with a grave expression, sounding very serious.

Gu Xiaosang turned to her and eagerly asked, "Sis, do you really think this isn’t just an ordinary stick?"

"Xiaosang, don’t be so careless, seriously feel it, and you’ll sense the Spiritual Energy contained within."

Hearing this, Gu Xiaosang started to take it more seriously.

"It seems... just like you said, this thing really does contain powerful Spiritual Energy!"

Gu Xiaosang quickly looked to Lu Chuan and asked, "Where did you pick up this stick? I want to go pick one up too!"

Lu Chuan’s face darkened as he said with incredulity, "Pick up what? I wrested it back from someone else’s hands. Do you think you can just find them lying around everywhere?"

Gu Xiaosang pouted, "Fine, keep your secrets."

Gu Xiaorou then asked, "So what exactly is this thing? Have you figured that out yet?"

"It’s said to be a branch of the World Origin Divine Tree. Sounds impressive, right? But it’s definitely impossible to investigate further in the secular world. We’ll need to go to the Kunlun Domain to find out more."

Gu Xiaorou continued, "Let’s set off tomorrow then. If we’re going to the Kunlun Domain, we need to take a car to the Kunlun Mountain Range first. The entrance to the Kunlun Domain is there."

Lu Chuan nodded slightly. He had never been to the Kunlun Domain, so he could only follow Gu Xiaorou’s plan.

"Once we reach the Kunlun Domain, you can stay at the Gu family initially."

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, but the thought of the marriage arrangements set by the Gu family elders for the two of them gave him a bit of a headache. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

His intent in going to the Kunlun Domain was to return to the Lu family, to clear his father’s name and avenge his mother.

Marriage and such could wait; with his newfound strength, he needed to do what had to be done, and quickly.

After eating hot pot, Lu Chuan accompanied Gu Xiaorou to the apartment where the two sisters lived.

After packing his luggage, Lu Chuan stayed the night in the apartment.

The next morning, right after getting up, Lu Chuan bought airplane tickets to the Kunlun Mountain Range on his mobile phone.

The nearest city to the Kunlun Mountain Range is Chunmu City. Anyone intending to go to the Kunlun Mountain Range must first settle down there. After adequate preparation, they can then venture deeper into the mountain range.
