Invincible Martial King

During these few days, with a beauty by his side, he would be able to do whatever it was he wanted. Even so, Lu Chen was still a bit absent-minded. The Royal Sacrifice was about to start, and now was not the time for him to relax.    

    

Gu Yiyi's thoughts were meticulous. Although she was very happy that Lu Chen accompanied her, she still felt that Lu Chen had something on his mind.    

    

"Are you thinking of leaving the valley?"    

    

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Yiyi stared at Lu Chen's face and asked quietly.    

    

Hearing that, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment and then went silent.    

    

"If you want to go, go." Gu Yiyi lightly said as she pursed her red lips.    

    

"Yiyi …"    

    

"Thank you."    

    

Lu Chen hugged her gently and said softly, "I will come to see you again in a while."    

    

Leaving behind these words, he rose up and quickly disappeared into the horizon.    

    

Gu Yiyi didn't say anything for a long time as she watched Lu Chen leave. However, there was a trace of gentleness in her eyes.    

    

"Little girl."    

    

"Why didn't you keep him?" Gu Yiyi's Fourth Uncle had appeared at an unknown time and asked with a smile.    

    

Gu Yiyi rolled her eyes at him, then slowly shook her head.    

    

"It's good to leave."    

    

"Originally, I left him here because I was worried that Emperor Qian would vent his anger on him. But now, he hasn't made any move in the past few days. He probably doesn't care about me."    

    

"However..."    

    

At this point, Gu Yiyi's Fourth Uncle paused for a second and asked in a deep voice, "There was news from before, asking us to return to the family in two months. It might not be a good thing for you to be involved with him now."    

    

"At least, it's not a good thing for him right now."    

    

"I know."    

    

Gu Yiyi's eyes dimmed as she bit her lips and said stubbornly, "It's exactly because I want to leave that I don't want to miss it."    

    

"Fourth Uncle, am I too selfish?"    

    

"How could that be?"    

    

Patting Gu Yiyi's shoulder, Fourth Uncle sighed and said, "Compared to how I was back then, you've done a good job."    

    

"I only hope that this boy can try his best. If it's truly like he said, then if you can rely on your own strength to reach the peak, even if it's close to the peak, the result between you and him will certainly be good."    

    

"Yes."    

    

"I will work hard too."    

    

"I won't let anyone else decide my fate."    

    

Gu Yiyi's beautiful eyes shone with a resolute light. She clenched her teeth and pleaded, "Fourth Uncle, please teach me."    

    

"Haha."    

    

"Our little girl has finally grown up."    

    

Seeing this, Fourth Uncle's face showed satisfaction as he nodded and said, "No problem."    

    

East District of the academy.    

    

A slender figure slowly descended, attracting the attention of all the students.    

    

"That person is..."    

    

"Senior Lu!"    

    

"Student Lu is back. Hurry and inform Teacher Yu and the others."    

    

… ….    

    

After clearly seeing Lu Chen's face, the East Campus Student s immediately gathered over. A few days ago, during the battle at the academy's mountain gate, Lu Chen's prestige had reached the peak. However, ever since the latter had left that day, there had been no news at all.    

    

Now, Lu Chen was the true flag of the East District. Regardless of whether it was the teachers or the students, they all respected and worshipped him. He alone fought against the eight or nine kings of two great clans, and he even won easily.    

    

And, how old is Lu Chen now? He already possessed such strength before reaching the age of twenty. One could only imagine that as long as no accidents occurred, his future achievements would be unimaginable.    

    

"Lu Chen."    

    

"You're finally back."    

    

Ao Hong and Zhang Hongru rushed here as soon as they received the news.    

    

The two of them fiercely patted Lu Chen's shoulder, and laughed out loud: "Good boy, a few days ago we heard that Yuwen Family and Qing Clan suffered terrible losses from the terrifying attack."    

    

"You are the only one who can make the two great families lose face like this."    

    

"We'll just collect some interest. When the time comes in the future, I'll personally make them pay an even greater price." Lu Chen's voice was calm, but anyone could hear the meaning behind his words.    

    

Ao Hong and Zhang Hongru glanced at each other. Both of them could see a trace of reverence in the other's eyes. Who the two families had offended, to actually provoke Lu Chen, one could imagine what would happen in the future.    

    

"No matter what, as long as you're back."    

    

"I haven't heard from you these few days. Not only us, Yu Hao and the others are also very anxious. They have already sent out several groups of people to find you."    

    

"You should go to the Heart Palace first."    

    

The East Branch had several halls named after the word "Qian", and they were all places where teachers normally held meetings.    

    

"No need."    

    

Suddenly, a loud and clear voice sounded. Yu Hao appeared not too far away and asked with concern, "Little Lu, it's great that you came back safe and sound."    

    

"We've been really worried these past few days."    

    

"Teacher Yu."    

    

Lu Chen's heart felt warm. Ever since he came to the academy, Yu Hao had been taking care of him and stood up for him many times. This was a teacher worthy of respect.    

    

"It's good as long as you're back."    

    

"Follow me, the dean and the other teachers are waiting for you."    

    

With that, Yu Hao looked at the other students and reminded them, "Don't spread the news about Lu Chen casually."    

    

"Understood."    

    

"Don't worry, Teacher Yu Hao." We know what to do. "    

    

Perhaps other people might not know who did it, but the teachers and students of the East Branch knew that it was all because of Lu Chen. If this news were to spread, it would cause an extremely negative impact to Lu Chen.    

    

The Regal Heart Palace.    

    

Following Yu Hao here, Lu Chen found that almost all the teachers of the East Branch were here. Including Yu Hao, there were a total of twelve teachers who had reached the King's Realm. Although they didn't deliberately reveal their soul force, but if they emitted an incomparable aura, even Lu Chen could feel a trace of pressure.    

    

Even though the overall level of the East Branch was not as high as West Campus, it was not far off in terms of the number of experts. And most importantly, the figure that stood above all the teachers, was something that even Lu Chen could not see through.    

    

"Student Lu Chen greets the principal and the teachers."    

    

Moreover, that day at the mountain gate, there were many teachers in the East Branch who wanted to help Lu Chen. Although they were stopped by the people from West Campus, they were still friends, so Lu Chen was naturally full of respect towards these teachers.    

    

"No need to be so polite."    

    

There was a trace of magnetism in the voice of Principal Dong, Zhou Cang. It was like a spring breeze, causing people to feel like they were bathing in spring. Even the depression in the hall disappeared without a trace with his words.    

    

"Not bad indeed."    

    

"To become a king before the age of twenty, with such an outstanding student like you, it is the fortune of the entire East District." Zhou Cang looked at Lu Chen with a satisfied expression.    

    

"The dean is right."    

    

"Lu Chen is indeed the most outstanding student in our East Branch. Even in the hundreds of years of history, it would be hard to find a second person who could match up to him."    

    

… ….    

    

The other teachers also nodded in agreement with the President Zhou Cang's words. Previously, Lu Chen did not act arrogantly because of his high cultivation level. Instead, he respectfully saluted them.    

    

Now that Zhou Cang had spoken, he naturally agreed with him.
