Chapter 369: Chapter 369: Heavenly Book Academy, Alarming the Entire Faculty!

In the imperial city, it was very quiet, no longer bustling with the extraordinary activity of before.

In the palace too, things were the same, which leads one to think that the four Martial Artists at the Core Formation Stage had left with Qin Yaotiao.

Lu Chen didn’t know how long he had been unconscious.

But after carefully sensing his body, he found nothing out of the ordinary.

It seemed that Qin Yaotiao had quickly withdrawn her power when she recognized him.

Lu Chen folded the letter left by Qin Yaotiao and placed it in the pocket of his clothes, then he realized a problem.

He had no idea where the Hehuan Sect was located, so how could he possibly look for it?

At the time, he had only inquired about third-rate sects with Shang Qing, intending to use them as a stepping-stone.

But he hadn’t expected that Qin Yaotiao would end up going to the Hehuan Sect!

"I can only go and find Shang Qing again!"

Lu Chen narrowed his eyes, pulled out his long spear, and took off through Artifact Control.

Without the threat of someone at the Core Formation Stage, he could act without restraint!

Nobody in the palace or the imperial city dared to comment despite seeing Lu Chen.

Who could have imagined, even after all the immortal masters dispersed, there was still one left!

Lu Chen encountered no obstructions along the way and soon arrived at the Heavenly Book Academy once again.

This time, he didn’t disguise his realm and landed directly in the Heavenly Book Academy!

All the Martial Artist teachers, regardless of whether they were in seclusion, were startled by Lu Chen’s aura and walked out from the inner academy, gathering in what once was Li Mingru’s courtyard.

"You are... Chen Lu!"

Someone recognized him.

Lu Chen raised an eyebrow and said, "I have no intention of being an enemy to the Heavenly Book Academy. I wish to find someone, Shang Qing, and would trouble the teachers to bring him here."

"Shang Qing?"

A middle-aged man stepped forward, first bowing, then asked, "Immortal Master Lu, may I know what business you have with Shang Qing?"

Lu Chen spoke indifferently, "I was once a student of the Heavenly Book Academy, so I may address you as teacher. However, some matters are not within your right to know!"

Ever since learning that the teachers of the Heavenly Book Academy were often motivated by self-interest, Lu Chen’s respect for them had diminished significantly.

He simply didn’t want to waste time on them, that’s all.

The teacher was left speechless by Lu Chen’s blunt retort, unable to display any dignity in the face of his higher realm.

The other teachers attempted to interject, "Although Shang Qing is the son of the Shang family, he is still just from a Martial Artist family after all..."

The implication being that it wasn’t worth the risk of offending Lu Chen just to protect Shang Qing.

Of course, they were also afraid that Lu Chen might vent his anger on them.

"What do you understand!"

The teacher scolded, and then turning to Lu Chen, said, "Shang Qing’s elder sister is an Inner Sect Disciple of the Xuanji Sect, Lu Chen, although you are now a cultivator, it might not necessarily be..."

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled disdainfully.

Does this teacher not see the situation, even trying to threaten me?

Shang Xiu had also died by my hand!

However, with so many people present, he naturally couldn’t speak of this openly and merely raised his hand slightly.

Snap!

A crisp slap resonated, and a bright red handprint appeared on the teacher’s face.

Lu Chen controlled his Spiritual Power with extreme precision, ensuring no real harm was done.

It was a lesson, nothing more.

"That was a warning. If Shang Qing isn’t found within the time it takes an incense stick to burn, don’t blame me for not being polite!"

The teacher, filled with fear and trepidation, hadn’t expected that, even after his words, Lu Chen would still dare to strike! Shock and fear flitted through his eyes as he bowed and exited the courtyard; it seemed he had no choice but to obey and find Shang Qing.

What Shang Qing would decide was beyond his knowledge!

Lu Chen watched him leave, then turned his attention to the gathering of teachers in the courtyard. They were all Martial Artists at the Soul Refinement Realm sensing the Spiritual Power within him.

They just didn’t know how high his realm was.

An idea crossed Lu Chen’s mind. Instead of waiting here, it might be better to ask them.

"Honorable teachers, although I, Chen Lu, am not unreasonable," he paused before continuing, "I have now become a cultivator, but remain a Loose Cultivator. I wonder if the teachers have any suggestions on which sect would be most suitable for me to join?"
