Chapter 763: Chapter 735 Zhong Tian’s Breakthrough

Feeling the warmth of Li Chen’s breath by her ear, Yang Xin’s face turned red all the way to her earlobes. In such a situation, all she had to do was turn her head, and she would directly kiss Li Chen’s face.

Just then, Li Chen suddenly stood up with a laugh, turned around, and walked towards the door: "All right, I’m leaving now, take good care of yourself!"

Watching Li Chen suddenly turn and leave, Yang Xin angrily grabbed a slipper and threw it at him.

"Thwack!"

The slipper smacked against the door, but Li Chen had already vanished without a trace.

Looking at the now absent Li Chen, a smile unexpectedly appeared on the corners of Yang Xin’s mouth.

"That jerk!"

When he returned to the villa, Li Chen realized that there was an extra person inside.

"Huh? Aunt Wang, you’re back?" Seeing Aunt Wang bustling about, Li Chen couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"Mhm," Aunt Wang smiled and nodded her head: "I had some things to take care of outside for a while. I heard a lot has happened, and I failed to take care of the young master and miss, which was really my mistake."

"It’s fine," Li Chen said with a smile, waving his hand: "Actually, I should thank you!"

"Thank me?" Aunt Wang was momentarily stunned.

"If Aunt Wang had been here, how could Lin Yi and I have developed such good cooking skills? Aunt Wang, you should rest well tonight. Lin Yi and I will make dinner, let you taste whether our skills have improved." Li Chen said with a smile.

"This..." Aunt Wang hesitated for a moment but ultimately nodded her head.

The Beast Tide incident was temporarily resolved, and the Nether Army members had all begun to cultivate. Li Chen believed that soon, a number of real powerhouses would emerge from among his subordinates.

By that time, he would truly have some aces up his sleeve.

After the events with the Holy Mountain and the Relic, Li Chen understood that often, no matter how strong an individual’s power was, sometimes it wasn’t very useful.

Moreover, he couldn’t protect every single person around him all the time.

At such times, the importance of having a strong force became highlighted.

Li Chen was indeed very much looking forward to seeing what his subordinates would be like when they grew stronger.

Just as he was preparing to cultivate for a while and wait for Lin Yi to come back to cook dinner together, Li Chen’s phone rang again.

"What’s with all the calls today?" he muttered in complaint, but answered the phone nonetheless.

"Hello, is this Li Chen?" came a crisp female voice from the phone.

"What’s up, Officer Yu, do you need something from me?" Li Chen teased with a smile.

"This time... really, thank you. If it wasn’t for you..." Yu Yueying said weakly, finding it somewhat embarrassing to express such gratitude, given her character.

"Hey! All right, all right. Officer Yu, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. I didn’t do anything, you know!" Li Chen said cheerfully.

"Mhm." Yu Yueying on the other end of the phone nodded vigorously: "I know."

"It’s just that I want to invite you to dinner. I was wondering if you would be free tomorrow?" Yu Yueying asked hesitantly.

"If Officer Yu is treating, even if I’m busy, I’ll make time for it," Li Chen responded with a laugh.

"Great, see you tomorrow at noon!" Yu Yueying said quickly, and then she hung up the phone.

Li Chen looked at his phone, now emitting a busy tone, feeling somewhat baffled, as he still didn’t quite understand what was happening.

At that moment, Lin Yi hadn’t returned yet, but Xiaoxiao and Qianqian had gotten back first. As soon as they arrived, they started pestering Li Chen to teach them Kung Fu. Glancing at the time, Li Chen agreed with a nod.

However, although he taught himself, it seemed that since his cultivation had stabilized recently, there had been no further improvement, and Li Chen was pondering if it was time for him to find a chance to enter closed-door cultivation.

Moreover, even though the Relic had closed again, he still needed to enter it.

After all, the note left behind by An Qin had stated that everything he wanted to know was within that Relic.

Li Chen felt that he still needed to venture into the Relic.

And Li Chen had decided that no matter what, he would rescue An Qin. Holy Mountain might be powerful, but his strength was also slowly improving.

He believed that one day, he would possess the power to stand against Holy Mountain.

Now, his forces had become well-established, and Li Chen firmly believed that day would come.

"It looks like I need to find a suitable teacher to instruct these two girls specifically," Li Chen mused, stroking his chin.

Just at that moment, a massive figure suddenly appeared outside the villa.

"Senior brother!"

Zhong Tian waved his hand at Li Chen from outside the door.

"Zhong Tian?" Li Chen was startled, then hurriedly invited Zhong Tian inside, "Zhong Tian, why have you come, hmm? Your power..."

The moment he saw Zhong Tian, Li Chen felt something was amiss.

Because, after not seeing him for two days, the aura emanating from Zhong Tian was unmistakably stronger than last time.

"Senior brother." Zhong Tian scratched the back of his head sheepishly and said, "I seem to have had a breakthrough, but I’m not sure if it’s the ’Yellow Rank’ you mentioned, so I, I wanted to ask you about it..."

Upon hearing this, a strange look couldn’t help but appear on Li Chen’s face.

So fast?

Keep in mind, the time Zhong Tian had been apprenticed to the grandmasters wasn’t too long, and Li Chen was clear about that.

Compared to Li Chen, who had practiced martial arts since childhood, Zhong Tian started his cultivation relatively late.

However, when exactly Li Chen had broken through to Yellow Rank, and what he had gone through to achieve the breakthrough to Yellow Rank—only Li Chen himself knew the details.

But... for Zhong Tian to have broken through just like that?

Li Chen found it somewhat unbelievable.

But after checking Zhong Tian’s power, Li Chen discovered, somewhat speechlessly, that Zhong Tian’s cultivation had indeed reached Yellow Rank.

Zhong Tian was indeed young, even a few years younger than Li Chen. At such an age, to have such strength, he truly could be considered a genius.

"It looks like the grandmasters didn’t speak falsely..." Li Chen looked at Zhong Tian with some surprise, feeling that compared to Zhong Tian, his own path of cultivation seemed to have been indeed quite more arduous.

Suddenly, Li Chen seemed to think of something, and his gaze encircled Zhong Tian’s figure. Then, he turned to look at the two girls behind him but quickly shook his head.

Zhong Tian’s style and approach to combat were completely unsuitable for the two girls, and he was immediately dismissed from Li Chen’s consideration.

"Senior brother, why are you looking at me like that?" Noticing Li Chen’s gaze, Zhong Tian couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"It’s nothing, we were just about to have dinner, so you might as well stay and join us," Li Chen said.

"Alright!" Zhong Tian nodded.

And just at that moment, another figure appeared outside the villa.

"Teacher!"
