An Lin was quite startled to hear that Chen Chen was here for him.
He faltered for a moment before asking, “Why are you looking for me?”
Chen Chen looked around at his surroundings before stepping onto the clouds. “Let’s go a bit further away so that we can have a good one-to-one chat.”
Everyone was startled again upon hearing this. These two were going to chat privately?
Everyone was starting to get quite curious, and there were even some students who were looking at the two of them with suggestive expressions.
An Lin hesitated for a moment before turning to Xu Xiaolan and his beast pets. “I’ll be back soon!”
A slight smile appeared on Xu Xiaolan’s face. “Don’t learn any self-detonation spell techniques that he tries to teach you!”
Chen Chen’s lips twitched imperceptibly upon hearing this.
Xu Xiaolan’s words echoed An Lin’s thoughts, and he smiled as he made an OK hand gesture toward her before flying away into the distance with Chen Chen.
Thus, the two of them strolled through the clouds.
An Lin was feeling a little unsafe, so he brought out his black brick.
He suddenly felt a lot more reassured as he stood onto the black brick.
He thought for a moment before pulling out a table and two chairs from his storage ring. He also brought out about a dozen spirit fruits as strong energy fluctuations instantly permeated throughout the area.
“Come on, Senior Student Chen Chen, let’s eat while we chat. Have all the spirit fruits you want; I have more if there’s not enough here!” An Lin gestured to Chen Chen with a boisterous expression.
His disposition as a cultivating tycoon was unleashed to the max.
After all, Chen Chen had once bestowed a technique upon him, so he wanted to maintain an amicable relationship.
Chen Chen looked wordlessly at the huge black brick beside him as well as the table, chairs, and spirit fruits and hesitated for a few seconds before sitting down opposite An Lin.
An Lin sized up his senior student carefully to find that his appearance hadn’t changed at all, and from his aura fluctuations, An Lin found that he had regressed from eighth stage Dao Body back down to seventh stage Dao Body… Hmm, he had fallen a stage…
But only a stupid c*nt would focus their attention on his cultivation base! It was extremely apparent that this cultivation base was just a ruse!
As for his clothes, his brownish-yellow linen garments were mundane to the extent of poverty.
An Lin paused for a moment before speaking with a concerned expression, “How have you been going these past few years, Senior Student? Why are you wearing linen clothes? Do you not have any clothes? I have a lot of fashionable clothes with me including some brand name clothing from the mortal world, would you like some? Don’t worry about paying me for them!”
Chen Chen’s face convulsed slightly before replying, “Clothing and the likes are insignificant, so Junior Student An Lin need not pay attention to them. Let’s cut to the chase.”
An Lin nodded upon hearing this. From the stories he had read in the past, all the bad*ss main protagonists habitually wore mundane clothing and hid their cultivation bases. From doing so, they would be looked down on by everyone before giving everyone a mighty slap to the face by flexing and showing off their full power. It looked like that was the route Chen Chen was going for!
Could it be… that Chen Chen wanted to become a protagonist?!
“Gasp…” An Lin heaved a sharp intake of breath as profound respect and admiration welled up in his eyes.
This was a man who was going to become the protagonist; he had to cozy up to Chen Chen as much as he could! Hopefully when this bad*ss protagonist went around awarding everyone slaps to the face, he would bring An Lin along as his underling so that they could flex together!
A peculiar expression appeared on Chen Chen’s face as he looked at the scorching light in An Lin’s eyes. “What are you thinking about, Junior Student An Lin?”
“Er…” An Lin came to his senses before gesturing to Chen Chen in a fawning manner as he said, “Nothing, Senior Student Chen Chen. Feel free to have some fruit. Also, can we exchange voice transmission talismans to facilitate easier communication in the future?”
An Lin felt like he had to strike as early as he could if he wanted to cozy up to someone as powerful as Chen Chen.
An indifferent smile appeared on Chen Chen’s face. “My apologies, I don’t have a voice transmission talisman.”
An Lin faltered slightly upon hearing this. “Do you have any other communication devices then?”
Chen Chen splayed his hands open before him. “I have nothing. The only thing I have is myself. Of course, if my heart is big enough, I can also own this entire world.”
“Gasp…”
As expected of a bad*ss protagonist, even his way of speaking was so profound and unique.
An Lin silently committed this sentence to memory and pondered for a moment before speaking again, “You don’t have nothing, you have those linen clothes.”
“That doesn’t count,” Chen Chen replied in a faint voice.
“Then what about those shoes?” An Lin asked again.
Chen Chen took a deep breath. “Let’s get back to the matter at hand!”
“Of course, Senior Student.” An Lin nodded with an obedient expression.
Chen Chen stroked his chin and paused momentarily before speaking, “I’ve actually had my eyes on you for a long time, and I have a special feeling about you.”
Thump…
An Lin’s had just picked up a spirit fruit when Chen Chen’s first sentence startled him to the point that his hands trembled, and the spirit fruit fell back onto the table.
“You, you, you… Senior Student, I like Xiaolan!”
An Lin stuttered as waves of shock surged in his heart.
Holy f*ck!
It was way too horrifying for a delicate youth to confess to him like this! He was a straight-laced man, and he immediately refused these advances!
Chen Chen’s expression faltered upon hearing this. “Why are you bringing that up now? Is this related to what we’re talking about? I don’t really care…”
“Of course it has something to do with this, and I care! I like Xiaolan, and I’m straight!” An Lin spoke with a serious expression, “Senior Student, you have to nip these things at the bud, otherwise, it’s not going to end well for any of the parties involved!”
Chen Chen was dumbstruck. What the f*ck was An Lin talking about?
Were they even on the same wavelength?
“I think there has been a misunderstanding. Hmm, perhaps this is what they call a generational gap.” Chen Chen elaborated patiently, “I don’t care if you like Xu Xiaolan, what is undeniable is that I have a special feeling about you.”
An Lin: “…”
“You know, when you unleashed the Finger of the Heavenly Dao during the free-for-all battle, I was not surprised in the slightest. Instead, I felt like it was all meant to be. You give me a very special feeling, as if we have some sort of special connection with one another.” Chen Chen looked at An Lin with a serious expression and said, “I don’t know what opportunities you have encountered, and I don’t know if you have a hidden identity, but I feel like you are going to be a vital element of my plan!”
An Lin heaved a sigh of relief as an awkward expression appeared on his face.
So that was Chen Chen was talking about. He had traveled down a completely different train of thought…
An Lin calmed himself down before asking, “So what is your plan?”
If this were the An Lin of the past, he would have definitely slapped Chen Chen across the face without hesitation. However, after coming into contact with cultivation, An Lin had seen all manners of strange and bizarre things, so he was starting to believe things like special connections.
A mysterious smile appeared on Chen Chen’s face. “Would you like to learn about the Heaven Crushing Sect?”
“The what?” An Lin’s eyes widened with befuddlement.
“I’m telling you I’ve established a Heaven Crushing Sect. Are you interested in it?” Chen Chen asked with anticipation in his eyes.
An Lin: “…”
A peculiar silence fell over the black brick.
Could it be that all male protagonists had to defy the heavens or crush the heavens for their journeys to come full circles?
It had to be said that this suited Chen Chen’s character though…
“Senior Student, I think my beast pet Xue Zhantian would be very interested in your sect…” An Lin replied expressionlessly.
Chen Chen pointed a finger at An Lin firmly. “Junior Student, I only need you!”
An Lin: “…”
