Ch 151: King, I have seen the Eldest Young Master.
“Dare to run?”
Ling Feng glared, looking in the direction of the two fleeing figures, his five fingers reaching out in the void.
An irresistible force contracted from the four directions of Heaven and Earth, pulling the two figures backward.
“Not good!”
Luo Kuangren’s complexion suddenly changed. Ling Feng was a Sixth Rank peak Martial Saint; how could the two Fourth Rankers possibly resist?
In the blink of an eye, the two figures were pulled back.
Ling Feng coldly snorted, punching towards the void in front of him. A huge phantom fist appeared out of thin air, mercilessly blasting towards them.
Luo Kuangren and Qin Lianshan were terrified, their bodies instantly shining with a series of equipment and skill effects: shields, light domes… everything related to defense was used.
Boom!
With one punch, all defensive effects were instantly shattered. The two were sent flying, crashing to the ground, severely injured.
Ling Feng retracted his attack, his aura gradually calming down. He looked coldly at the two.
“I see you’ve grown bold! I’ll say this here today: anyone who dares to target Gu Chen again is against me.”
“I don’t like talking, and I don’t like reasoning. If anyone is not convinced, come and test your fists with me.”
After his words fell, the entire scene fell silent.
After a brief silence, the entire place erupted.
Good heavens, the Shenxia Empire’s Five-Star General made a public appearance just to support Gu Chen?
From now on, except for a few factions at the peak, who else would dare to provoke him?
It can be said that from now on, Gu Chen can walk sideways in most parts of the Shenxia Empire.
Luo Kuangren climbed up from the ground. As soon as he heard Ling Feng’s words, a mouthful of blood gushed out again.
What on earth is going on?
Gu Chen’s identity was already heaven-defying, and now he has a Five-Star General of the Empire backing him. How are they supposed to play now?
His father is the Northern Territory War King, and now a giant of the Military Department is backing him.
What is the Luo Family in front of him?
The Richest Man in the Northern Territory?
What a fart! In his eyes, you’re just a money bag. He’s already giving you face by not draining the Luo Family dry.
“Second Master, what should we do now?” Qin Lianshan weakly asked.
“What else can we do? With a Five-Star General backing Gu Chen, let alone me, even if the Head of the Family came, he would have to bow his head.”
“What rotten luck! A scholar meets a soldier, reason is useless. I heard that the King has also come to Yinlong City. I’ll contact the Head of the Family first and ask him how to find the War King.”
“Right, the King is just and wise. He certainly won’t let Gu Chen act recklessly.”
Luo Kuangren thought he was already crazy enough, but after meeting Ling Feng today, he learned what true madness is.
And Ling Feng has the capital to be mad. He was almost beaten to death, yet he dared not show any temper.
For so many years, Luo Kuangren had never suffered such humiliation.
Without saying more, Luo Kuangren turned around and fled without looking back.
It wasn’t his daughter who went missing; there’s no need to get himself involved.
Seeing this, Qin Lianshan also ran away.
Seeing the two leave, the corners of Gu Chen’s mouth unconsciously curled up slightly.
Unexpectedly, Ling Feng was ruthless and didn’t talk much. Without a word, he started fighting, directly scaring the two away. This saved him a lot of trouble.
Turning to Ling Feng, Gu Chen’s tone was more sincere, “Thank you, General Ling, for upholding justice for me.”
Ling Feng nodded lightly, indicating it was nothing.
Gu Chen was a soldier he had trained; how could he stand idly by?
“By the way, is the Luo Family girl’s disappearance related to you?” Ling Feng suddenly asked.
Gu Chen’s eyes trembled slightly. Good heavens, he thought Ling Feng believed in him and acted out of righteousness, but it turns out he didn’t distinguish right from wrong.
He’s even so confident!
Xu Xia was also stunned, feeling a surge of envy.
With Ling Feng’s attitude, wouldn’t Gu Chen skyrocket?
“After separating outside the perimeter of Yinlong City, I haven’t seen Luo Qingxue.”
Ling Feng hummed, nodding slightly, not paying too much attention.
“General Ling, is Gu Ci currently in the Dragon Palace?” Gu Chen suddenly asked.
This was the important matter. The reason he rushed to the Dragon Palace was to see his dear younger brother as soon as possible.
“I’m not sure. We can find someone to check once we’re inside the Dragon Palace.”
Gu Chen nodded, followed by Xu Xia. The three of them walked towards the Dragon Palace.
…
The interior of the Dragon Palace was divided into multiple areas. At this moment, in a certain courtyard.
“Your Majesty, good news! I just saw the Eldest Young Master in the plaza outside the Dragon Palace.”
The speaker was the butler, Gu He, his tone filled with pride.
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingfeng frowned slightly, “Oh? The Iron Pagoda is still searching for him? How did he suddenly arrive at the Dragon Palace? Are you sure it’s Chen’er?”
“Returning to Your Majesty, absolutely certain!”
“Not only that, I also saw the Eldest Young Master’s battle record. Tsk tsk, from ordinary exotic races to bosses, he solo killed them all along the way. He’s simply outstanding.”
“In my opinion, with the Eldest Young Master’s battle record, those professionals outside Yinlong City probably don’t have a single one who can fight him.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingfeng’s expression changed slightly, “Oh? It seems that the Summoner profession is truly different in his hands.”
“Yes, for so many years, the Summoner has always been called a bottom-tier profession. Commoners dare not touch it, and as for the aristocrats, unless there’s no other choice, who would want to be a Summoner?”
“In my opinion, with the Eldest Young Master’s current achievements, he will surely become a major figure in the Summoner profession in the future.”
Gu He spoke, his tone filled with undisguised excitement.
He was originally from the lower class, so he understood how much hardship Gu Chen had endured to fight his way up from the bottom.
Now that the hardship has paid off, as long as the father-son relationship can be eased, he will definitely receive key cultivation from the Northern Territory Royal Family in the future.
“Your Majesty, since the Eldest Young Master has arrived at the Dragon Palace, it’s time for you two to have a good talk.”
“Sigh…”
After pondering for a moment, Gu Qingfeng nodded and slowly stood up.
Indeed, as Gu He said, it was time to have a good talk.
Gu Chen is his son. Since he can bring the combat power of the Summoner profession to such an extent, he should indeed be cultivated properly.
In the future, even if he cannot control the Northern Territory, he can still become a supreme expert of the Empire and guard a region on the Abyssal Battlefield.
Even if he can make achievements in the Zhenyuan Army and become a Five-Star General like Ling Feng, it wouldn’t be a disgrace to his face as the Northern Territory War King.
On the way to Yinlong City, Gu Ci had been guiding him, and he had also come to understand some things.
Whether Gu Chen joins the Academy faction or the Military Department faction, ultimately he is resisting the Abyss for the Shenxia Empire.
Different paths, same destination; there’s not much difference.
If Gu Chen is determined to join the Military Department, Gu Qingfeng will no longer object.
If Gu Chen is willing to bow his head and admit his mistake, he can use most of the resources of the Seven Cities of the Northern Territory to cultivate Gu Chen.
Even after arriving in Yinlong City, he left Gu Ci and others behind and went straight to the Dragon Palace alone. In fact, he didn’t receive any secret order; he just wanted to secure a quota for Gu Chen to contract with the Dragon Clan.
Now, everything is ready, only Gu Chen’s attitude is missing.
As the Northern Territory War King, he can cultivate his son without reservation.
But there is one condition: his son must know gratitude and bow his head and admit his mistake to him, his father.
