Chapter 2912: Chapter 2932: Yue Chengtian is Awesome Now!

"Sect Master, what have you been chatting about for so long?"

Chi Ya’s eyes sparkled with curiosity as she asked in a low voice, a raging gossipmonger’s soul burning in her gaze.

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I’m here to seek support, after all. The Hall Master should know about my past, right? Telling stories of the old days naturally takes time."

Chi Ya looked hopeful and asked, "So did you succeed in seeking support?"

"Yes."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "The Hall Master said he wouldn’t help me with trivial matters, like those small confrontations or conflicts where I’ve offended others. But if things get serious, he won’t let me be wronged."

Chi Ya let out a big sigh of relief, "That’s great! With the Hall Master’s words, I’m sure no one will come to trouble us anymore."

Lin Chen curled his lips, "That’s not necessarily true. The Hall Master only mentioned he’d step in if it becomes big and I am in the right. He also said he won’t fight my battles for me; we’ll have to handle them ourselves."

"Ah?"

Chi Ya was taken aback for a moment then quickly asked, "Did you tell the Hall Master about Kong Wenlong being Chen Quan’s uncle?"

"I didn’t."

Lin Chen explained, "Although it’s true that Kong Wenlong is Chen Quan’s uncle, so far, we’ve only had conflicts with Chen Quan himself. It’s not even clear if Chen Quan will target us, let alone whether Kong Wenlong would help his nephew by coming after us to settle scores. What could I possibly say?"

"It wouldn’t make sense to ask the Hall Master to transfer me away from Kong Wenlong’s subordinates or reassign Kong Wenlong somewhere else just because he is related to Chen Quan and I’m afraid of their retaliation. Obviously, that’s not possible; I don’t have that much clout..."

Chi Ya thought about it and realized she might have been too hasty and prejudiced.

"Right, but since the Hall Master mentioned he won’t let you be wronged, you’ll have a solid backing. If anyone tries to retaliate against you, our entire Haoran Sect will support you and ensure that you’re not mistreated!"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Alright, then I’ll rely on you all to back me up."

Chi Ya’s mood relaxed, "You are our Sect Master, we are one. United we stand, divided we fall. You’ve only offended these people on behalf of the Haoran Sect. If it were just you alone, there wouldn’t have been any conflict."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Let’s not worry about them. After this, we’ll return to the Haoran Sect, then enter Closed Door Cultivation to improve our strength, readying for battle..."

Lin Chenxiao’s smile faded, and his expression became quite serious, "The Hall Master has said that the war between Immortals and demons is inevitable. It might start in as few as several years, or as many as twenty. The battle is destined to begin, so we must use this remaining time to urge all disciples to cultivate, prepare Magical Treasures, and try to increase their Combat Power."

Chi Ya solemnly responded, "Understood, Sect Master!"

Lin Chen stopped walking, "You go back to the reception area first; I have some things to do."

Chi Ya said with concern, "Do you need me to accompany you?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "This is the War God Mansion; who would dare to openly stop and kill me? If those people really want to go after me, they certainly have someone watching. They will definitely know about the long time I spent with the Hall Master, so they’d think twice about the consequences before making a move."

Chi Ya also thought this made sense, so she no longer insisted and turned to leave.

Lin Chen left the city, traveling along the magnificent century defense line toward the West.

After traversing several hundred miles, Lin Chen arrived at the main camp of the Sixth Legion.

Lin Chen took out his token representing his status as the Sect Master of the Haoran Sect and explained his purpose to the guards at the entrance.

Lin Chen wasn’t troubled; after all, his identity was that of one of their own.

While Lin Chen was waiting, he suddenly remembered Yue Chengtian. Wasn’t he supposed to be staying in the War God Mansion, reportedly joining the Sixth Legion?

"Brother, let me ask you about someone. Yue Chengtian, a very young genius Array Master, should have joined the Sixth Legion in the last 20 or so years..."

Lin Chen merely asked casually, as it’s unlikely that a guard at the gate could be aware of someone in a legion that was at least tens of thousands strong, if not 100,000.

But to Lin Chen’s surprise, the guard replied directly, "You mean that Yue Chengtian who our Army Commander has taken on as his personal disciple?"

Lin Chen’s eyes widened in surprise, "He’s been taken on as a personal disciple by the Sixth Legion’s Army Commander?"

The guard nodded, "If we’re talking about the same person, then yes. Do you know him?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "We are friends, from the same place. It’s just that we’ve been apart for a while. I knew he’s in the Sixth Legion, but I had no idea about his exact whereabouts, so I was just inquiring..."

The guard’s attitude suddenly became a lot warmer, "Do you need me to send a message for you?"

Lin Chen thought for a moment, "No need to trouble yourself, it’s enough knowing he’s doing well."

Lin Chen was truly happy for Yue Chengtian inside since his decision to follow him to the Crimson Immortal Domain was to make use of his skills, and now not only had his dream come true, but he had also been taken on as a personal disciple by the Army Commander, promising a bright future.

Given that Lin Chen had offended many, every word and action might be under scrutiny, it was better not to cause trouble for him.
