Chapter 355: Who’s Using Whom?

Chapter 355: Chapter 355: Who’s Using Whom?

Lu Chen’s pupils shrank; he knew these three had discussed this matter and even had some disputes over it.

Of course, at that time, Lu Chen didn’t care much about it; he merely listened a bit more attentively because Shang Qing mentioned the Heavenly Pill Pavilion. He didn’t take the subsequent conversation to heart.

Whether the Heavenly Pill Pavilion was recruiting several attendants, Lu Chen wasn’t clear, but he knew the opportunity was rare.

If he hadn’t made up his mind to go to the Casting Gear Pavilion and seize the chance to enter the Tiandan Sect, he would have tried for the opportunity no matter what.

After all, Spiritual Fire could also be used for Alchemy.

But now, he had to go to the place where they were recruiting to see if he could find Xu Qianqian. If the chance arose, he would kill her and then leave to catch up with Yu Qingqing.

So, he certainly had to check out this grand event at the Heavenly Pill Pavilion.

"Immortal Sect, who wouldn’t care about that? Don’t tell me, Brother Mo knows a way into the Immortal Sect?"

Lu Chen feigned a look of surprise.

"Of course," Mo Buwen said earnestly, "Not to mislead Brother Lu, we are from a Martial Artist family in a small town in the south, cultivating for many years, struggling to break through the Visceral Refinement Realm! It’s too late for us to ascend to the Immortal Path through martial arts. Therefore, after inquiring around, we learned that the Heavenly Pill Pavilion is recruiting disciples tomorrow afternoon, and that’s why we’ve rushed here!"

"I see," Lu Chen nodded, then said with puzzlement, "Logically speaking, this kind of information about accepting disciples should be widely announced. Why the need for inquiries? While the city seems bustling, it doesn’t seem to be in celebration of a grand event!"

"This is where Brother Lu is uninformed," Mo Erwu on the side chimed in, "These Immortal Sects, are all about ’immortal fate,’ and they do things as they please!"

"That’s also true," Lu Chen agreed, feeling strongly about this statement.

Whether it was the Xuanji Sect Master or Yan Zhiyi, when making decisions, they truly seemed to have no concerns.

While he verbally agreed with them, he didn’t fully accept it in his heart.

This was because they were both at the Core Formation Stage, where nobody in this mundane world could obstruct them!

Might is right!

"But even we Martial Artists from a small southern town know about it, so just imagine, how many others in the imperial city might also be aware?"

Mo Dawu said as well.

Lu Chen nodded, then turned to Mo Buwen and said, "So, Brother Mo suggests that you want me to join forces with you to vie for this chance to enter the Immortal Sect?"

He had figured out the other’s intentions, as previously in the room, they thought Lu Chen was asleep and talked about recruiting attendants.

But now, facing him, they mentioned disciples.

Obviously, they were afraid he wouldn’t be interested in being an attendant.

They were eager for him to join them, which suggests that the news was known by quite a few people!

Then, Xu Qianqian...

She must surely know as well.

Perhaps, knowing she had no chance to join the Hehuan Sect, she settled for a third-tier sect instead!

Of course, with Xu Qianqian’s temperament, she might use the Heavenly Pill Pavilion as a stepping stone!

He learned from Qin Yaotiao that outstanding disciples of third-tier sects would eventually be sent to second-tier sects!

Not just Xu Qianqian thought this way; Lu Chen had the same idea when he first parted ways with Qin Yaotiao!

As for what lies above second-tier sects, the first-tier sects, Lu Chen was completely in the dark.

"Brother Lu, what do you say? With the four of us at the Visceral Refinement Realm, we are certain to stand out from the other Martial Artists!"

Seeing that Lu Chen did not answer but instead fell into deep thought, Mo Buwen couldn’t hide his impatience.

Regaining his focus, Lu Chen said, "Brother Mo, I understand your meaning! However, let me be clear, I can travel with the three brothers, but we will have to see when the time comes!"

"Brother Lu, what is there left to see?"

Mo Buwen became anxious and said, "The Immortal Sect, this is about the Immortal Sect! In practicing Martial Arts, don’t you want to become a celestial master who can ascend to the heavens and enter the earth, an omnipotent being?"

Lu Chen replied, "Of course I do, who in the world wouldn’t? Not to mention ascending to the heavens and entering the earth, just the prolongation of life after stepping onto the Immortal Path is enough to make countless people scramble for it!"

"So, Brother Lu means to say..."

Mo Buwen couldn’t help but feel baffled.

With a light chuckle, Lu Chen said, "Brother Mo also mentioned, there must be many aware of this news. Thus, we have to prepare for the worst!"

After speaking, his eyes also flashed with a sharp light!

These three didn’t tell the whole truth; since they wanted to use me, why shouldn’t I use them in return?

Mo Buwen, scratching his head in urgency, asked, "The worst case is just not being chosen; could it be we’re also risking our lives here?"

Lu Chen laughed and counter-asked, "I wonder, have you gentlemen ever heard of the name Xu Qianqian?"
