Chapter 176 - 89 [Quite Harsh Words] (8200 words)_4
He and that so-called Mr. Zhong had quite a reputation in Port City, thinking that they could... coat themselves in gold outside and then return to the mainland to seek privileged patrons to attach themselves to.
Initially, if that was all, Chu Keqing wouldn’t have rejected so decisively, considering their same sect comradeship.
But after hearing about Mr. Zhong from the third senior brother, Chu Keqing inquired and found out he was not a good character.
Using sinister methods like raising child spirits and refining corpse oil, while flaunting the banner of Southern School of Yin-Yang Art but actually employing those demonic practices from the Southern Seas!
How could Chu Keqing possibly let someone like him return to the mainland to make money and harm others?
After hanging up the phone, Chu Keqing was lost in thought for a moment, sneering coldly in his heart.
Choosing to associate with those wild fox Zen from the Southern Seas rather than being a good disciple of Cloud Sect!
Degrading oneself!
Chen Yan’s rectified Cultivation Technique would never be passed on to him!
Thinking about this, Chu Keqing picked up his phone and instinctively opened Chen Yan’s WeChat interface.
Last time, he heard the senior had returned home for the New Year and was not in Jinling Prefecture these days. Otherwise, he should have diligently paid him a visit... well, to pay respects!
However, even if he’s not here... can’t I still make more contact?
Calling, WeChat, making more contact. Constantly seeking advice and showing respect can earn more impression points.
But... thinking about the time at the He Family...
This old scoundrel followed him intentionally or unintentionally when he went up the mountain.
And that night, when he went to the back mountain, he slapped a Talisman on his chest...
Chu Keqing blushed and put down the phone.
No... this senior is not very proper!
Although he wanted to please him, he wanted to do it properly, not in this way!
However...
Chu Keqing’s eyes sparkled.
On the way to the He Family that day, Chen Yan corrected his Cultivation Technique, and later when he talked about the sect’s Talisman Art and Qi Fortune Technique, reciting the Spell...
Although Chen Yan didn’t give any more pointers at the time, Chu Keqing, being astute, noticed the slight change in Chen Yan’s expression.
Clearly, he thought there was a problem!
But he deliberately didn’t say anything, choosing to keep silent—he actually had knowledge!
The sect’s Talisman Art must have significant issues, and he must have the ability to correct them!
The Cultivation Technique is the foundation of the legacy; with his correction, it can enhance the future disciples of Cloud Sect.
But this benefit is potential and long-term, not something that shows immediate results.
However, the Talisman Art, if corrected by him, could instantly turn decay into miracle! Boosting his strength significantly!
Yet... Chen Yan refused to teach.
Chu Keqing understood that it was normal for people to refuse to teach.
It is said that advanced spells that can significantly boost one’s strength are not easily taught to others.
Chu Keqing was reasonable and wouldn’t feel resentment towards Chen Yan for that—though the eagerness in his heart wouldn’t fade.
Moreover, as Chu Keqing practiced the revised Cultivation Technique in the past few days, his cultivation improved. He couldn’t help but wonder, if this senior Chen Yan was willing to guide him in Talisman Art... then to what extent could his strength improve?!
Senior Chen Yan could slay spirit monsters with his bare hands!
"Ah, how can I make this senior interested? Willing to teach me more?"
Chu Keqing propped his elbow on the table, resting his cheek in contemplation.
Surely not...
Surely not... make me...
Surely not make me give up my body, to practice dual-cultivation with him, becoming his Furnace, right?
Thinking of this, Chu Keqing couldn’t help but blush.

In the evening, Chen Yan closed the yard and house doors, noticing the time was not even eight o’clock...
Young people these days, who goes to bed so early on holidays?
But in the countryside, there’s nothing much to do at night.
Surely, he wasn’t going to teach Young Lady Gu how to play card games, right?
Turning around, he saw that Gu Qingyi and Lu Sisi had already sneaked into the room together.
Hmm?
Since when did these two girls become so close?
Chen Yan opened the door and felt the warm air from the heater inside.
In the old lady’s bedroom, one girl was sitting cross-legged on the bed and the other was leaning on the old lady’s favorite lounge chair.
Because the room was warm, both girls were wearing thin autumn clothes, highlighting their blooming figures.
Lu Sisi was fine, with a slender and well-proportioned figure. Young Lady Gu was the kind that made one’s heart flutter at a glance.
Especially since they had both washed their feet in the evening, they were barefoot. Lu Sisi was sitting in the lounge chair, her slender legs and delicate feet softly curling her toes.
Both girls were holding their phones... horizontally.
Chen Yan leaned in to look at Lu Sisi’s phone screen...
Oh, they were wandering in the Valley of Kings.
Chen Yan thought for a moment, then smiled, "Let’s play together."
As he said, he took out his phone.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Gu Qingyi glanced at Chen Yan and quickly tapped the screen, "Don’t log into the game, I’m using your account!"
"?" Chen Yan was stunned.
Then he realized that Young Lady Gu didn’t have an ID card and couldn’t pass the real-name verification. So he had given her his game account to play.
But... they had lost several matches that day, causing his account to drop in rank.
Watching by Lu Sisi for a while, Chen Yan’s mouth twitched...
This Lu Sisi was even worse!
On the screen, Lu Sisi just wasted an ultimate skill, being chased with no escape...
