Chapter 293: Chapter 293: Serve You as Master

Ling Chen asked.

Mo Han and the others looked puzzled too.

Chi Shen swept his gaze over the crowd, and finally rested it on Ye Zhenzhen, saying, "You are the genius with the Cloud Mist Spirit Body, aren’t you?"

"Yes, Lord Chi!"

Ye Zhenzhen was initially startled, then quickly responded with some excitement in her voice.

Chi Shen nodded and said, "If you wish, you can come to my Jiangxing Academic Palace."

The Cloud Mist Spirit Body is considered one of the top-tier Super Spiritual Bodies.

Although Ye Zhenzhen’s cultivation level is somewhat low, she still has some developmental value.

Actually, he had been contemplating Ye Zhenzhen’s situation recently.

However, due to Ye Zhenzhen’s previous precedent of defecting from Tianluo Academy, it made him somewhat indecisive.

Nevertheless, representing True Martial Academy in the Eight Palaces Martial Discussion, Ye Zhenzhen even managed a luxurious record of defeating five opponents in one match, securing victory for True Martial Academy.

Seeing how much Ling Chen trusted her, that prompted him to extend an olive branch to Ye Zhenzhen.

Little did he know that during the competition, Ye Zhenzhen fought with all her might partly because her Divine Soul was controlled, leaving her no choice but to go all out.

"Thank you, Lord Chi, I am willing!"

Ye Zhenzhen said, overwhelmed with joy.

Back in Tianluo Academy, the Palace Master of Tianluo had told her that the Cloud Mist Spirit Body could draw significant attention from the two top-tier academies.

But coming here, she realized that things were not as simple as she imagined.

Even though she defeated Tianluo Academy single-handedly, she still failed to catch the attention of Ye Fan and Chi Shen.

"Don’t thank me! If anyone, thank Ling Chen. If it weren’t for his sake, I wouldn’t have given you this opportunity."

Chi Shen spoke indifferently.

"Thank you, Young Master Ling!"

Ye Zhenzhen quickly bowed respectfully to Ling Chen.

Ling Chen, however, appeared confused, wondering what it had to do with him since he hadn’t said anything.

Chi Shen looked at Ling Chen with a smile, only to see the latter looking dazed, seemingly indifferent to the gift.

"Young Master Ling..."

Chi Shen felt like he was flattering the wrong person: "If you think she’s not suitable, I’ll take back what I said."

"Ah?"

Everyone was confused.

Was Lord Chi being too frivolous?

Moreover, asking Ling Chen, a prospective student, about such a matter?

Are you sure you’re asking the right person?

Meanwhile, Ye Zhenzhen looked incredulous.

Was she being rejected again?

"Young Master Ling..."

Ye Zhenzhen looked at Ling Chen nervously.

A single word from Ling Chen could determine her future.

Then, Ling Chen finally responded, saying, "Elder Chi, you make the decision yourself. Don’t mind me."

"So, shall I take back what I said?"

Chi Shen cautiously probed.

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhenzhen looked ashen.

Ling Chen glanced at Ye Zhenzhen and then at Mo Han, saying, "Elder Chi, our Jiangxing Academic Palace, honoring our word is crucial..."

"Agreed!"

Chi Shen nodded firmly, saying, "Ye Zhenzhen, I’ll ask you again, are you willing to join Jiangxing Academic Palace and never betray it?"

From Ling Chen’s eyes, he understood.

Ling Chen seemed not as comfortable with Ye Zhenzhen as he was with other True Martial Academy students, obviously because of the betrayal.

Pleading for Ye Zhenzhen seemed mainly for Mo Han’s sake.

After all, sending one more genius to the two top academies could hugely benefit Mo Han and True Martial Academy.

"I am willing!"

Ye Zhenzhen declared solemnly, "Lord Chi, I, Ye Zhenzhen, vow with my life to always be loyal to Jiangxing Academic Palace and never betray. Otherwise, may I be struck by heavenly punishment!"

"I hope you can fulfill your promise."

Chi Shen looked deeply into Ye Zhenzhen’s eyes and said, "If you ever betray, I will personally execute you!"

Dropping this remark, Chi Shen turned and left.

Originally, he wanted to invite Ye Zhenzhen to narrow the gap with Ling Chen, but unexpectedly, the relationship between Ling Chen and Ye Zhenzhen was not as he thought.

It even nearly triggered Ling Chen’s dissatisfaction.

"Congratulations, Ye Zhenzhen."

Mo Han nodded towards Ye Zhenzhen.

Although he did not trust Ye Zhenzhen, after all, she would bring a considerable amount of cultivation resources to him and True Martial Academy.

Moreover, as a Palace Master, even if he was displeased, he could not show it among the students.

"Congratulations!"

Qin Wan Er and others also said with envy.

"Thank you!"

Ye Zhenzhen quickly responded.

Finally, she walked over to Ling Chen, bowed deeply towards him, and said, "Just now, thank you, Young Master Ling."

If it were not for Ling Chen speaking up, she probably would not have gotten the opportunity to join Tianluo Academy.

Though her betrayal was related to Ling Chen, after all, she was the first to attack Ling Chen. Ling Chen not killing her was already an extraordinary mercy.

Now, Ling Chen helped her again, how could she not be grateful?

Moreover, this Ling Chen clearly was not an ordinary talent, his strength was heaven-defying, capable of slaying even a Primordial Pill Realm Level 6 powerhouse.

Clearly, following Ling Chen was the best choice.

Previously she was still hesitating about where to go after the Eight Palaces martial talk. Now, she had made up her mind to follow Ling Chen.

"Mm."

Ling Chen nodded slightly.

...

Night fell.

Ling Chen was in his room tallying his gains.

Today, having slain Jiang Wusheng and Zhao Tianwu, he unceremoniously took their storage rings.

Furthermore, Uncle Cang had given him Jiang Wuyan’s storage ring.

This was a super powerhouse of Primordial Pill Realm Level 8, and the treasures inside the storage ring would probably reach an astonishing level.

"Tsk tsk, over two thousand high-grade Primordial Spirit Stones, today’s harvest is quite plentiful!"

Ling Chen excitedly said.

In these two thousand high-grade Primordial Spirit Stones, Jiang Wuyan accounted for ninety percent of them; the remaining ten percent belonged to Jiang Wusheng and Zhao Tianwu.

Additionally, there were five mid-grade Spiritual Weapons.

As for other mid-grade Primordial Spirit Stones and low-grade Spirit Weapons, Ling Chen was too lazy to count.

Now, just in mid-grade Spiritual Weapons, Ling Chen already had nine.

"Young Master Ling, are you there?"

A voice came from outside the door.

"Just a moment!"

Ling Chen put away the treasures into his storage ring and then opened the door.

"Master above, Zhenzhen is willing to serve you as a master!"

Upon entering, Ye Zhenzhen kneeled towards Ling Chen and said.

Last time, she was under the control of Ling Chen’s Divine Soul.

But this time, she was willing!

Ling Chen was stunned.

He had given Ye Zhenzhen her freedom, yet she chose to serve him as a master. Could it be that having been a slave for a long time, she could no longer stand tall?

"Why?"

Ling Chen stared at Ye Zhenzhen and asked.

"I believe, being a slave at the master’s side is better than being free!"

Ye Zhenzhen said very earnestly.

In the time she spent with Ling Chen, she had gained some understanding of him.

Ling Chen was willing to instruct her in the Lower Body Technique Heavenly Spirit Technique, and after she won a match, he lifted the Divine Soul control.

It was clear, Ling Chen was not a bloodthirsty person.

Moreover, with his extraordinary talent, Ling Chen would surely become a top powerhouse in Great Xia.

Then, any slight favor to her would be better than her own cultivation.

From how well Ling Chen treated Ling Wu, it was evident that he was very kind to his own people.

Even though she was just a servant, she believed that as long as Ling Chen trusted her, he would definitely not treat her unfairly.
