Lan Qiangwei of course wouldn't travel with Lin Chen, Lin Chen was just joking.
But Ning Xiayi got confused by the remarks.
As one of the Three Goddesses, she obviously knew Shang Wenyin, and even though she was curious, she did not ask any questions.
Lin Chen summoned the Linglong Tower, put Ning Xiayi inside, and said with a wry smile, "I'm sorry that the wonderful gathering was spoiled by Cui Wenxuan. We can't continue with the meal now. How about we put it on the tab? Next time we meet, I'll invite you and make up for today's meal."
Lan Qiangwei realized Lin Chen was preparing to flee for his life. After all, Cui Wenxuan left in a great rage, who knows if he would summon a host of powerhouses to hunt him down again soon.
It wouldn't be out of the question for a Quasi-Saint to be called in, and then everyone would really be in over their heads.
"Okay, it's a deal!"
