C704 Refusal and Threats
"I wonder what Junior thinks?" Zuo Qingyue was very confident. He believed that as long as Lu Chen wasn't stupid, he would definitely agree. The First Prince's authority was monstrous. Not to mention the academy, he had unparalleled prestige even in the dynasty. He had personally come forward to win Lu Chen over, giving him face.
At the same time, it also meant that as long as Lu Chen agreed, he could let bygones be bygones with the grudge that happened with the West Campus, not to mention giving out a very precious Superior Magic Tool. One must know that this was a true killing machine, so even if it was a rich person, it would be very difficult to get something of this level.
Paying such a huge price was all because of Lu Chen's endless potential.
Furthermore, Lu Chen had directly killed Yuwen Wu, who was at the Second or Third Sky of the Grandmaster Realm, and even broken through a few small realms consecutively in just a few months after he had joined the Academy. This far exceeded the bitter years of cultivation of an ordinary person, and it was hard to find a second genius with such a monstrous talent in the entire Dagan Dynasty.
Thus, even a person like the First Prince, after knowing Lu Chen's news, the first thing he thought of was not to deal with him. Instead, he wanted to recruit someone like him as his subordinate.
Zuo Qingyue didn't urge Lu Chen, he believed that the latter would definitely make the smartest choice.
"The First Prince sure is generous."
"To think that in order to win me over, he would even be willing to give out a Superior Magic Tool." Lu Chen smiled faintly. His gaze landed on Zuo Qingyue as he asked self-deprecatingly, "Could it be that the First Prince has forgotten?"
"I killed Yuwen Wu, who knows how many people there are in West Campus who wish to kill me? As a student of West Campus, isn't he afraid of the people from West Campus pointing their fingers at him?"
"Furthermore, Yuwen Wu is someone from the Yuwen Family, is he not afraid of his Yuwen Family being unsatisfactory?"
Lu Chen deliberately asked like this, as he wanted to hear how the other party would answer.
"Ha ha!"
"Lu Junior sure is funny."
Zuo Qingyue laughed, waved his fan and said, "As long as you become a friend in the palace, all of this will not be a problem."
"I believe you should be clear that the people below this great hall can be said to be below one person and above tens of thousands of people."
"Now that you've become a friend of the Great Hall, who would dare to deal with you?"
"Isn't that the same as making an enemy out of the palace?"
Speaking up to here, Zuo Qingyue revealed a self-confident smile, and continued to smile: "The Subordinate likes to be friends with Martial Genius like you, and appreciates talented people very much. As long as Lu Junior is willing, all cultivation resources will be provided by the Subordinate Hall, and no matter what kind of cultivation technique or martial skill you ask for, you will be able to obtain the greatest amount of satisfaction."
"In short, being friends with someone below the great hall would allow you to increase your strength in the shortest time possible. Not to mention becoming an expert with Ninth Layer Of Martial Tao Sect Master, it would be easy even for you to become a king who has surpassed Ninth Layer Of Martial Tao Sect Master."
"This is a truly rare opportunity, I have never seen anyone who could be so admired by the people in the great hall."
"Lu Junior should know what to do, right?"
With that, Zuo Qingyue calmly looked at Lu Chen. He was not worried that Lu Chen would not agree, as long as he gave such rich conditions, as long as it was a normal person, they would not be able to refuse such an invitation.
Of course, all of this was under the premise that Lu Chen had displayed his potential and talent. Otherwise, if it was anyone else, they would not have been worth the First Prince paying such a huge price to win him over.
Although he was extremely unwilling, Zuo Qingyue still had to admit that a person like Lu Chen was extremely rare in Dagan Academic Palace. Even the person with Chen Family at his level back then would not be able to accomplish so many unexpected things.
"The First Prince is indeed quite sincere."
Lu Chen was deep in thought. He had to admit that even he was tempted by the other party's offer. If he wanted to raise his strength in the shortest time possible, the amount of cultivation resources he needed would be a terrifying amount. If he had the help of the powerful First Prince, he would indeed be able to obtain unimaginable benefits.
It was a pity that he was still a student of the East Branch after all. Besides, whether it was intentionally or unintentionally, many things about the First Prince had spoiled his life, especially the other party's good fortune within the Great Fantasy Stage.
Most importantly, Lu Chen didn't think that the other party would have such magnanimity and be able to let go of his past grudges. As for cultivation, even without any help from others, Lu Chen could still improve his strength in the shortest time possible through the accumulation of his previous life.
"The conditions are good, it's a pity …"
"What's a pity?"
Zuo Qingyue frowned, he had a bad feeling about this.
"Unfortunately, I'm used to being idle and free. I don't want to be ordered around by others."
"Even more so, I don't want to get involved in any nonsense."
Lu Chen said lightly under Zuo Qingyue's stunned gaze.
"Oh?"
"So you're going to refuse?"
Zuo Qingyue's smile froze and his expression gradually turned cold. Even his voice had a hint of coldness.
"Of course."
"If there's nothing else, please go back." Lu Chen raised his hand, signaling Zuo Qingyue and the rest to leave.
"Haha."
"He is indeed too young. I wonder how high the sky is and how deep the earth is." Zuo Qingyue smiled and ridiculed, "Have you thought about the consequences?"
"Don't mention your small background, even if it were a young genius from the true Martial Tao Family, still wouldn't dare to publicly reject you in such a manner."
"In this dynasty, do you know what offending someone in the great hall means!"
At the end of his sentence, Zuo Qingyue's expression turned serious, which was very different from his passionate look just now.
"Are you threatening me?" Hearing that, Lu Chen's gaze turned cold as he said in a deep voice.
"Threatening? "Not really."
"However, I am very worried about Lu Junior's future, and more worried about your friends outside the academy." However, I am worried about Lu Junior's future, and more worried about your friends outside the academy.
"In the eyes of the people below the palace, you will either become a friend or become an enemy that will not rest until you are dead."
"I'll ask you again, are you sure you want to do this?"
Zuo Qingyue asked in a cold voice while coldly staring at Lu Chen.
"Very unfortunate."
"My personality is one where I don't fear the strong. If someone wants to deal with me, then think about Yuwen Wu's fate first." Lu Chen chuckled and mocked back.
