Chapter 604: Chapter 604: Reunion with the Painting Immortal
Seeing the disbelief on her granddaughter’s face, the smile on the old man’s face disappeared instantly, and he said sternly, "Have you forgotten the ancestral precepts of the Lin Family?"
Upon seeing the old man get angry, Lin Shuying promptly dropped her disdain and firmly stated, "In this world, everyone has their strengths, as well as their weaknesses; one should not judge by appearance, nor measure by wealth, and not oppress with power. Those who look down on others will inevitably be scorned; only those who respect others will be respected."
The old man’s expression eased a bit, but he still spoke with great solemnity, "As far as I know, there are quite a few Realm Martial Artists of the King Realm in the Secular World. Although very ordinary in the Ancient Martial World, being able to cultivate to the King Realm in the resource-scarce Secular World is already a sign of tremendous talent."
"The young man from earlier, at his young age, already has at least the cultivation of the King Realm Initial Stage, which is enough to indicate his exceptional natural aptitude for the Martial Path. Should he one day enter the Ancient Martial World, it is inevitable that he will make a name for himself."
Lin Shuying was surprised, not expecting her grandfather to hold such a high opinion of that young man.
Her grandfather was Lin Bo, the Fifth Elder of the Lin Royal Family, one of the Nine Inferior Clans from the Ancient Martial World, with cultivation half a step into the Emperor Initial Stage Realm. If it hadn’t been for a serious injury that caused his cultivation to plummet, he would also be a genuine Emperor Realm Strong today.
Lin Bo’s standards were extremely high and even she, his beloved granddaughter, had never received such high praise.
But soon, Lin Shuying understood, just as her grandfather said, martial artists from the Ancient Martial World have far greater access to cultivation resources than those from the Secular World. For Qin Chuan to cultivate to the King Realm at such a young age in the Secular World was indeed extraordinary.
Although Lin Shuying could understand her grandfather’s high regard for Qin Chuan, she still felt incredibly unresigned in her heart. She was only just over twenty and had already cultivated to the King Realm, while Qin Chuan appeared to be twenty-five or twenty-six years old, a full five to six years older than her.
By the time she reached Qin Chuan’s age, she might be able to cultivate to the King Realm Peak.
Lin Bo sighed as he looked at his granddaughter, clearly seeing Lin Shuying’s displeasure. But there was no helping it; eventually, her pride would come at a price.
Lin Shuying suddenly asked with great curiosity, "Grandfather, is that senior you mentioned really that formidable?"
In Lin Bo’s turbid eyes, there seemed to be a gleam as his face took on an admiring expression, and he said in a deep voice, "My teacher once said that his younger martial sister’s talent even surpassed his own, given enough time, she could achieve sainthood through painting!"
Lin Shuying’s eyes lit up, and she asked in surprise, "Achieve sainthood through painting? Grandfather, are you referring to the legendary Saint Realm?"
Lin Bo nodded and said in a serious voice, "Grandfather’s teacher is a Sovereign Realm Expert, and since he said so, it must be true, but..."
He paused there, as his expression turned somewhat sorrowful.
Lin Shuying’s face held a touch of gossip but did not dare to ask further, waiting instead for Lin Bo to continue voluntarily.
However, it seemed Lin Bo was reluctant to talk more about it and sighed, "It’s all in the past now, no need to speak of it anymore."
Lin Shuying felt a bit disappointed, but she also understood that her grandfather was not in a good mood at the moment, and it had to do with his teacher’s younger martial sister.
She suddenly became very interested in this potentially grand figure capable of achieving sainthood through painting as mentioned by her grandfather.
In the Ancient Martial World, Saints are legendary peerless powerhouses, many Peak Stage Experts of the Emperor Realm spend their entire lives pursuing the Saint Realm, but even at the end of their lifespans, they are unable to step into the Saint Realm and die with regrets.
Now, such a bigshot with the potential to achieve sainthood through painting was actually hidden in the Secular World, what kind of extraordinary woman could she be?
Lin Shuying was very much looking forward to it, even picturing in her mind the magnificently beautiful figure of that extraordinary woman.
At this moment, not far behind the business van they were riding in, a red Ferrari sports car was following not too close yet not too far away.
Inside the Ferrari, of course, were Qin Chuan and Mu Weiwei.
Mu Weiwei, who was driving the supercar, suddenly said, "The direction they’re going seems to be heading towards the family compound of Yandu University."
Qin Chuan’s brow suddenly furrowed as he said, "A strong character has gone to the Painting Immortal’s cottage, and they must be from the Ancient Martial World."
They were already very close to the family compound of Yandu University. He had just sensed a very powerful aura quickly approaching the Painting Immortal’s cottage.
And such an aura could only belong to a strong character at the Emperor Initial Stage Realm, which could only come from the Ancient Martial World.
"What?"
Mu Weiwei’s complexion changed drastically as she said anxiously, "Why would a strong character from the Ancient Martial World go to the teacher’s cottage?"
"Mr. Qin, without concealment, the reason the teacher stopped painting a year ago, and why she refused to restore the portrait for you when I took you to see her, was not because she was deliberately making it difficult for you, but because her hands had suffered a severe injury, which I also learned about after I took you to see the teacher."
"The reason I came to find you today is that the teacher has passed on to me a notebook from her own teacher, which contains the Portrait Technique. By following the Portrait Technique in the notebook, I can help you restore the original appearance of the person in the portrait."
"Mr. Qin, I have an inappropriate request to make, and I hope you can agree to it."
She rapidly explained the reason for the Painting Immortal’s refusal to Qin Chuan while increasing the speed of the supercar, closing the distance between them and the business van that Lin Bo was riding in.
Qin Chuan said, "You want me to help your teacher, right?"
Mu Weiwei nodded, her eyes reddened as she said, "Not only has the teacher granted me her knowledge like her own student, but she also treated me like her own granddaughter. I can’t tolerate anyone bullying her!"
"When the teacher took off her gloves to show me her hands, full of cuts and wounds, I really felt a great deal of heartache. She loves painting so much, yet she can’t paint anymore because of the injuries to her hands. Can you imagine how big of a blow that is to her?"
"Although the teacher refuses to tell me how she got the injury on her hands, I can guess that someone must have harmed her."
"Mr. Qin, if someone has indeed bullied my teacher, I implore you to lend your assistance! Consider it as me, Mu Weiwei owing you three favors. If I cannot repay these three favors, I am willing to do anything to show my gratitude!"
Through Mu Weiwei’s statement, Qin Chuan also understood the deep bond between Mu Weiwei and the Painting Immortal.
He naturally would not refuse and said solemnly, "If I’m not mistaken, the destination of that car ahead is also the Painting Immortal’s cottage. Overtake the car ahead and go find your teacher."
"Yes!"
Overjoyed to the point of tears, Mu Weiwei couldn’t stop crying. She floored the accelerator, turning the supercar into a red bolt of lightning as it swiftly passed the business van in front.
The moment she learned that a strong character from the Ancient Martial World had gone to her teacher’s cottage, she was truly worried and scared.
She knew that although Qin Chuan didn’t agree directly, by telling her to speed up to find the Painting Immortal, it meant he had agreed to her request.
