Chapter 23: Let's get straight to the point! The Temple of the Gods
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Lin Chuan. As for Bulma..."
Before Sun Wukong could finish speaking, he was met with Bulma's murderous gaze, which immediately silenced his words.
Sun Wukong broke out in a cold sweat and immediately stopped talking, changing the subject: "Since everyone is ready, let's go. I'll lead the way..."
With that, Sun Wukong picked up Sun Gohan, comforted him for a few moments, then floated up and flew straight into the sky.
Sun Wukong's mastery of the Flying Technique was indeed not very proficient, and at this point, his achievements in this area were truly unremarkable.
"Tch! He hasn't even mastered the most basic flying techniques? Kakarot is such a useless kid..." Raditz complained, then leaped up and followed beside Goku.
They sprang into action, and Popo signaled to Krillin and Master Roshi in the next second before activating the Magic Carpet to follow.
Whether it was because the load capacity was met or something else, Bobo's ascent speed was very slow, even far slower than Sun Wukong's clumsy flying technique.
Seeing them all go up, Lin Chuan's lips curled into a smirk as he looked at Bulma: "Ready?"
Upon hearing Lin Chuan's question, Bulma's cheeks flushed slightly.
Despite her previous boastful and uninhibited attitude, she still gets shy when actually being picked up.
After all, men and women are different, and they are not familiar with each other.
She gave a soft "hmm," and Lin Chuan reached out and picked her up in a princess carry.
The first thing Lin Chuan felt upon touching her soft, jade-like body was a wonderful sensation, a feeling he had never experienced before, which made his heart tremble.
In this lifetime, Lin Chuan has only met Bulma today!
Even if you've seen pigs run and eaten pork in your past life, at most you've only held hands or put your arm around someone's shoulder.
Now that Bulma was in his arms, he didn't realize how voluptuous the woman's figure was until he held her.
Not only does she have a devilish figure, but she also exudes an extremely alluring fragrance that makes people linger after just one sniff.
It's unbelievable that Yamcha, with Bulma being such a stunning woman, doesn't cherish her.
If it were him, he would cherish and protect her for a lifetime, fearing that someone else would take her away.
Lin Chuan was taciturn.
Bulma is in the same situation.
She hadn't expected Lin Chuan to pick her up so decisively. She felt dizzy and lightheaded, and a strange feeling swept over her, making her lose her composure.
The masculine aura wafted over her, the powerful male presence, and the intense heat of their bodies made her feel as if she had a fever.
Lin Chuan stood there stunned for more than ten seconds, but fortunately, with the reminder from Bra and the others, he finally came to his senses.
They immediately locked eyes again, and Bulma's face turned even redder.
Lin Chuan gave a slightly embarrassed smile, expressing his apology for his distraction.
"Remember not to move around. I'll rush up in one go and take you to the Temple of the Gods first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Chuan slowly stood up.
With the use of the Flying Technique, in just a few short seconds, Lin Chuan and Bulma were no longer visible from the ground.
……
In less than a few dozen seconds.
Above the Temple of the Gods.
A streak of light shot up rapidly from below the Temple of Gods, finally landing steadily in the center of the Temple of Gods' platform.
It was none other than Lin Chuan who descended upon this place carrying Bulma!
His speed was so fast that he surpassed everyone else, and this was just a burst of speed from Lin Chuan at random.
The vast and magnificent temple was filled with an aura of holiness and majesty.
It exerts an extremely strong sense of pressure on people, even though it is invisible.
Of course, if one's strength reaches a certain level, one can ignore such oppression.
[It's exactly what I remember... I have to say, the place where the gods live is like a bowl that's been magnified many times over and frozen in the sky... It's a really weird and quirky setting...] Looking around, the surrounding environment gradually matched the memories in his mind, and Lin Chuan couldn't help but sigh.
Sensing the presence, Lin Chuan looked ahead and first saw a person standing there motionless.
The other person was also watching him.
He was a big, fat man with an afro.
Who else could it be but Yajirobe, known as the tanky Yasuo?
Just like in the original story, he was forcefully summoned up by the god Piccolo to train.
Their eyes met, and Lin Chuan smiled slightly, not taking him seriously, and looked behind him.
The god Bick is inside the temple.
Lin Chuan's attention was focused on the gods, and he hadn't yet realized that he needed to put Bulma down.
Bulma, still conscious from her rapid flight, was unable to fully process what was happening.
Now, when I came to my senses and saw the Temple of Heaven, I didn't even realize I was still being held. My immediate thought was: "Is this... the Temple of Heaven? It's completely different from what I imagined."
Bulma, nestled in Lin Chuan's arms, gazed around with curiosity and disbelief.
She had actually wanted to study the existence of the Temple of Gods for many years, but unfortunately she never had the opportunity.
This time, she got what she wanted.
Thinking of this, Bulma shifted her body, only to feel Lin Chuan's hand tighten again a second later, and her mind went blank...
Wait!! She's still in Lin Chuan's arms?!
Bulma suddenly snapped out of her daze, abruptly raising her eyes, only to find herself locked in eye contact with Lin Chuan once more.
"You...you!! Put me down right now!!" Bulma blushed and was even a little flustered, covering her face with her hands, afraid that others would see her embarrassing state.
Recalling the scene during the flight, she realized that she had grabbed Lin Chuan for protection because of the high speed.
Lin Chuan brought this up in his speech: "When we were flying just now, I don't know who was holding me tightly, and they were yelling at me not to let go."
The teasing was so obvious that Bulma blushed even more.
Seeing this, Lin Chuan decided not to tease her any further and reluctantly put her down.
There is ample time.
If you go too far, it will be counterproductive.
After being freed from Lin Chuan's embrace, Bulma stood aside and breathed a few sighs before glancing at Lin Chuan with her big, bright eyes.
The meaning is obvious: all the tension and fear before was caused by Lin Chuan's speed.
Lin Chuan smiled even more broadly at this.
I have to say, Bulma is actually quite cute.
……
Meanwhile, at the entrance of the Temple of the Gods.
At this moment, Yachirobe was sweating profusely and felt extremely guilty.
"Is he that Saiyan...? He has such a terrifying aura... Even from this distance, I can feel his danger, like he could devour me alive."
Yachirobe's instincts made him fear Lin Chuan.
He found it strange that Bulma, that woman, wasn't afraid of him.
