Li Qing smiled slightly and continued, "On the night of the incident, I was enjoying drinks and pleasant conversation with young Luo Chen and his companions at the Dark Night Tower. During our ti, we discussed many topics about Soul Cultivation, and young Luo Chen’s insights were exceptional, leaving a deep impression on ."
His words were filled with admiration and recognition for Luo Chen, making everyone present view Luo Chen in a new light. How could soone that Lord Li Qing valued so highly be an ordinary youth?
At this mont, Salas had completely shed his previous arrogance; he stood there, awkward and at a loss. The surrounding onlookers started to cast friendly and curious glances at Luo Chen, eager to know what made the youth whom Lord Li Qing admired so exceptional.
Luo Chen stood in the center of the crowd, filled with gratitude and respect in his heart. He knew that it was Lord Li Qing’s appearance that rescued him from the predicant, making him feel warmth and compassion in this unfamiliar city. He bowed deeply to express his gratitude to Lord Li Qing.
This unexpected turmoil was thus quelled by the appearance of Li Qing, and the crowd gradually dispersed, leaving Luo Chen, Li Qing, and others exchanging smiles. They knew that from today onwards, their friendship would deepen.
The corners of Luo Chen’s mouth involuntarily twitched; he felt that all eyes seed to focus on him instantly, and this attention made him feel guilty, causing him to lower his head. He secretly muttered in his heart that he had pushed himself into the spotlight this ti.
"Luo Chen, little brother?" Carefree ng Lan’s voice, tinged with a hint of discontentnt and curiosity, rang out, clearly surprised by Luo Chen’s reaction.
Luo Chen raised his head, eting the questioning gaze of Carefree ng Lan, and softly explained, "We were just curious and wanted to see the excitent, that’s all." His voice carried a hint of helplessness and embarrassnt, as if defending himself.
Just then, Li Qing laughed heartily. He walked over to Luo Chen, kindly patted him on the shoulder, and said, "No need to be shy, a man should act boldly and be willing to admit it. What is it about going to the Dark Night Tower? It’s fine for n to seek so fun, but killing and doing evil, harming the innocent, that’s sothing you must never try, do you understand?"
Listening to Li Qing’s words, a warm feeling surged in Luo Chen’s heart. He silently nodded, indicating that he had understood Li Qing’s aning.
Seeing this, Li Qing nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the stunned Salas and others. He furrowed his brows and asked sternly, "Salas, do you not believe my words either? I, too, sensed an unusual aura that night, but since the vibe was malevolent, I let them fight it out."
Salas was startled by Li Qing’s words and quickly responded, "How could Salas dare to disbelieve the lord’s words?" His attitude had noticeably beco more respectful, entirely different from his earlier authority and arrogance.
Then, Salas turned to Thunderstorm and Luo Chen, his face showing a sowhat awkward smile, "Salas was unaware that the two of you were friends of the lord, and I apologize for my previous reckless actions." He said, bowing deeply to them in apology.
Luo Chen was taken aback, not expecting Salas to suddenly change his attitude. Even Thunderstorm, who had been maintaining a cold expression, looked at Salas with a hint of bewildernt and was montarily speechless. They couldn’t help but marvel internally, wondering if everyone from the Martial Soul Hall commanded such respect. Even the Judgent Institute, which was responsible for maintaining empire security and curbing evil, treated them with such courtesy?
"Lord, since it’s all a misunderstanding, Salas won’t hinder you from catching up with your friends." Salas straightened up, speaking humbly and apologetically, contrasting with his previous authority and arrogance.
Li Qing nodded, expressing satisfaction with Salas’s attitude. He waved his hand, indicating that Salas could leave. Salas respectfully bowed, then led the mbers from the Judgent Institute and turned to leave.
With the departure of Salas and others, the atmosphere around lightened significantly. Luo Chen and Thunderstorm both breathed a sigh of relief, looking gratefully at Li Qing, filled with respect and gratitude. anwhile, Li Qing smiled at them, as if everything was under his control.
"Luo Chen, little brother, this ti we were fortunate to have Lord Li Qing step in to help." Carefree ng Lan walked up to Luo Chen and remarked with emotion, "In the future, you should learn from this, and avoid causing such troubles again."
Luo Chen nodded, secretly resolving in his heart. He knew that this ti, he was able to turn peril into safety thanks to Lord Li Qing’s help. He would rember this lesson and act more cautiously in the future.
As for Li Qing, he looked at Luo Chen and Thunderstorm, secretly nodding in his heart. He believed that after going through this experience, these two young people would surely beco more mature and composed. He was looking forward to seeing them walk further and more steadily in their future journey.
"Well, go on, and convey my greetings to Qian Xunji when you return, hehe~" Li Qing chuckled warmly, waving goodbye to Salas and the others. His deanor exuded a sense of calm and confidence, as if everything was within his grasp.
