He truly didn’t know what words to use.
For others, enhancing their Divine Soul Telekinesis almost needs to be asured in years, and there are even those who spend their entire lives trapped at the early stages of the Solid Realm.
Yet, Ling Chen, who had only been at True Martial Academy for a few months, improved his Divine Soul as if it was no more difficult than eating and drinking.
"Ah, I hate this! Why didn’t I et you earlier!"
Gu Qingyang felt imnse regret in his heart.
If he had t Ling Chen earlier, perhaps, by now, this genius would have already been his disciple, right?
Why should Gu Ce get so fortunate instead?
Little did he know, Ling Chen was not even Gu Ce’s disciple!
...
The night passed without incident.
Ling Chen arrived at the Alchemy Pavilion once again, early the next morning.
In the reception room.
All the Divine Thought Masters from the entire Divine Thought Hall had gathered together.
Their gazes were not directed towards the door, as if they were waiting for soone!
"Ling Chen, take a seat,"
Hall Master Gu Qingyang pointed to a chair and said with a smile.
"Alright."
Ling Chen nodded and took his seat.
Seeing such a young youth, and wearing the core student uniform at that, apart from the Alchemy Pavilion’s Divine Thought Masters, the other Divine Thought Masters were all buzzing with discussion.
"Who is this?"
"Even the Hall Master is so polite to him, could he be another person from the Gu family?"
"Can it be? Didn’t the Gu family already have Gu Lin as a genius? How co there’s soone even younger than Gu Lin?"
"Eh, how co I can’t feel his Divine Soul cultivation at all?"
"Yes, I can’t feel it either!"
...
The Divine Thought Masters from the Alchemy Pavilion, hearing everyone’s discussions, had very odd expressions.
Many didn’t know about Ling Chen’s alchemy and how he had outpaced Pavilion Master and Gu Lin, but they had seen Ling Chen teach Shen Yufeng a lesson.
Just from that, they held imnse respect and fear for Ling Chen.
A ruthless man who dared to beat up even the highly esteed Divine Thought Masters, they certainly did not want to offend him.
Especially since the Alchemy Pavilion Master had been staring at Ling Chen with deep resentnt.
Because of Ling Chen’s striking moves, he had attempted alchemy several tis in the past few days and failed each ti.
He didn’t know how long it would take to step out from that shadow.
"He’s here."
Just then, Gu Qingyang’s voice rang out.
Everyone imdiately ceased their discussions, stood up, and turned eagerly towards the door.
Only Ling Chen remained seated, motionless.
About a hundred breaths later, footsteps sounded from outside.
Everyone’s expression grew even more excited.
Soon, an elder in a grey robe appeared in everyone’s line of sight.
"Master Gu!"
Everyone imdiately bowed respectfully.
"Mm."
The grey-robed elder responded lightly, then walked towards the main seat.
He didn’t even glance at the Divine Thought Masters to his sides.
Yet, these Divine Thought Masters didn’t mind at all, showing no signs of displeasure.
"Hm?"
Just then, the grey-robed elder’s gaze fell upon a sitting figure.
Everyone else was standing and bowing respectfully, even the Divine Thought Hall Master wasn’t an exception. Who was this person, not showing the slightest decorum?
"What is your na? Leave Divine Thought Hall tomorrow!"
The grey-robed elder paused his steps, not even glancing at the person he was addressing, rely speaking indifferently and deciding their fate directly.
The standing Divine Thought Masters felt schadenfreude.
Not understanding any deference in front of Master Gu, it served him right to be expelled from Divine Thought Hall.
Gu Qingyang was also stunned, was Ling Chen being too careless?
His own master had arrived, and he still dared to sit so boldly?
"Ling Chen!"
Gu Qingyang hastily transmitted a ssage to remind him.
"Is that so?"
Ling Chen disregarded Gu Qingyang’s reminder and spoke indifferently, his eyes filled with an inexplicable aning.
"How is it, do you dare question my decision?"
The gray-robed elder smiled slightly, and then, finally, he cast a suprely proud gaze over.
When his gaze fell on Ling Chen’s face, the arrogance on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by a look of horror, as if seeing a ghost.
"Ling Chen?"
The gray-robed elder trembled as he spoke.
"Master Gu, it was I who asked Ling Chen to co over, you have accepted a good disciple indeed!"
Gu Qingyang quickly said with a smile.
However, contrary to Gu Qingyang’s expectations, the gray-robed elder suddenly "thud" sat down on the ground.
"Master Gu?"
Everyone was almost baffled.
Even if Master Gu t his own disciple, there was no need to be so excited, right?
"Gu Ce, are you sure you want to leave the Divine Thought Hall?"
Ling Chen asked with a smile that was not quite a smile.
This gray-robed elder was indeed Master Gu.
"Gu Ce?"
Hearing Ling Chen’s address, Gu Qingyang was completely baffled.
Calling him by his na, these two seed not to have a master-disciple relationship...
"Bang!"
In the astonished gazes of the crowd, Gu Ce actually rose and kowtowed to Ling Chen, saying, "Young Master Ling, save !"
This scene stunned countless onlookers.
The Master Gu, who was considered the number one Divine Thought Master of Zhenwu Prefecture, was kowtowing to a young man?
They were utterly confused.
"Aren’t you asking to leave?"
Ling Chen said with a smile.
"Slap!"
Gu Ce slapped his own face and hurriedly apologized, "Young Master Ling, I was wrong!"
During this ti, he had made a trip to the Royal Capital.
He had requested a high-grade senior Divine Thought Master in the Royal Capital to step in and eliminate the mark Luo Luo left in his Divine Soul.
To repay the life-saving grace, Gu Ce chose to co to True Martial Academy to train Divine Thought Masters for the Dynasty.
Originally, he thought he had solved it.
But when he saw Ling Chen, the mark erged once again.
It was then he realized it had not been resolved at all.
The Divine Thought Master he requested to intervene was already the top existence in the Dynasty.
If even he could not solve it, then it seems only the bell ringer can untie the bell.
Only by relying on Ling Chen could he find that little girl.
Hence, his attitude changed so thoroughly.
At this mont, Ling Chen also clearly sensed the mark within Gu Ce’s Sea of Consciousness.
No wonder he felt a familiar aura from Gu Ce the last ti they t!
It turns out, it was because of the Divine Soul Mark.
Even more so, he felt as if he could control it.
As if the life and death of Gu Ce were hanging by his single thought.
This was also why he dared to speak in such a way to a top-grade Divine Thought Master.
"Please save , young master!"
Gu Ce kowtowed earnestly.
He now felt a reverence for Ling Chen that ca from deep within his soul, rooted in his Divine Soul.
The longer he stayed with Ling Chen, the stronger this feeling grew.
At this mont, he couldn’t care less about what others thought, preserving his own life was paramount.
"Where does the mark in your Sea of Consciousness co from?"
Ling Chen asked.
Upon hearing this, Gu Ce was even more shocked.
Did Ling Chen actually know about the mark in his Sea of Consciousness, didn’t that imply that the little girl and Ling Chen had a close relationship?
"It was left by Luo Luo beside you."
Gu Ce quickly replied respectfully.
"Luo Luo?"
Ling Chen finally understood why, after Luo Luo had reprimanded Gu Ce and left, Gu Ce never troubled him, why on the road to True Martial Academy, Gu Ce, who intended to attack him, suddenly inexplicably ran away?
Connecting to what Luo Luo had said about protectors, Ling Chen finally understood that this was surely sothing Luo Luo left behind to protect him.
