At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School,
Chen Shenge, who was instructing Chen Chu'er on swordsmanship, seemed to sense something and narrowed his eyes.
"Little girl, you're finally better."
"Master, are you saying Sister Qingling is better? Has she broken free of her cocoon?"
Chen Shenge nodded slightly. "Yes."
"Master, you can go now. I will practice diligently and master the swordsmanship you taught me as soon as possible."
Chen Chu'er's eyes were firm; she didn't seem reluctant to let her master go.
This was a momentous occasion, and she shouldn't interfere with her master's life.
For this reason, Chen Shenge couldn't help but glance at Chen Chu'er again. She was indeed a well-behaved child; no wonder the little girl had taken her in as her adopted sister.
"Hmm, strive to prove your strength with swordsmanship as soon as possible."
With that, Chen Shenge left, disappearing from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in an instant.
At the same time, three people in the council hall were discussing animatedly.
"I never expected this reclusive expert to take on a disciple, especially an ordinary person without a martial spirit."
"Uncle Sword, your martial spirit is the Seven Kill Sword, the same type as the reclusive expert's. Do you really think he can teach an ordinary person swordsmanship?"
Faced with Ning Fengzhi's question, Chen Xin remained silent for a moment, his mind racing.
He didn't know if it was even possible.
But thinking of his disciple Chen Qingling, many of her techniques came from Chen Shenge.
Perhaps this was absolutely impossible for them, but it was perfect for Chen Shenge, no problem at all.
Immediately, Chen Xin said, "This is impossible for me, but it shouldn't be difficult for him."
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong exchanged a glance and gasped.
My goodness!
If it really could be done,
wouldn't that create a completely new cultivation system?
Wouldn't that give ordinary people who haven't awakened their martial spirits a chance? If
it really succeeded, it would be a huge contribution to the continent.
It just made those sword-type martial spirit masters quite frustrated. After all
, if ordinary people could learn swordsmanship, wouldn't that be almost the same as sword-type soul masters? "
I wonder what level her strength will reach after learning swordsmanship?
" "I think learning swordsmanship is very difficult. I wonder how long it will take Chu'er to master it."
...
Star Dou Great Forest, Lake of Life.
Suddenly, Gu Yuena sensed her daughter's aura, her eyes widening in astonishment.
"This...this is my daughter's aura!"
"My daughter isn't dead!"
Gu Yuena carefully sensed it, confirming it was indeed her daughter's aura, and could no longer suppress the joy on her face.
"I knew it! How could my child, Gu Yuena's child, die so easily!"
At this moment, Gu Yuena sensed a familiar aura on her daughter.
"This is...divine power?"
"Could it be that my daughter has become a god?! Which divine position did she inherit?"
Despite her curiosity, Gu Yuena remained at the Lake of Life.
She believed her daughter would return to the Star Dou Great Forest to find her soon. She
definitely would!
There was no doubt about it!
Suppressing her impulse, Gu Yuena closed her eyes, no longer thinking about her daughter.
She feared she might act impulsively and commit a grave mistake, attracting the attention of the divine realm.
Her daughter had finally survived; if she acted rashly and drew the attention of the divine realm, her daughter's identity would be exposed.
They, mother and daughter, would then face divine judgment!
Therefore, for her daughter's safety, Gu Yuena had to suppress her thoughts and wait patiently for her arrival.
Meanwhile,
Chen Shenge transformed into a streak of light and arrived above the Four Elements Academy in the blink of an eye.
Sensing the sudden arrival, Ning Rongrong and the others were initially stunned, then reacted.
"Qingling, your father is here!"
"Ah?! My father!"
Chen Qingling's eyes widened as she followed Ning Rongrong's pointing finger and saw her father's silhouette.
"Father!"
Chen Qingling flapped her wings and flew into the sky, her eyes slightly red as she looked at Chen Shenge.
A long-absent smile appeared on Chen Shenge's face. No longer suppressing his longing, he tightly embraced his daughter.
Three years!
A full three years!
God knows how he got through it all, how many days and nights he had longed for this day.
He had finally seen his daughter emerge from her cocoon!
It had been so difficult, so heartbreaking.
"My dear, you finally didn't make your father sad," Chen Shenge said, affectionately stroking the back of his daughter's head.
This caused Chen Qingling to slightly complain, "Father, I'm not a child anymore. Could you... please stop stroking the back of my head like you did when I was little?"
Hearing this, Chen Shenge shook his head and chuckled, "No matter how old you are, in my eyes you'll always be a child."
"What? You think that's not good?"
Chen Qingling's lips curled up slightly, "Yes... Qingling will always be your little darling."
Looking at the fully grown-up Chen Qingling, Chen Shenge smiled with satisfaction, feeling a firm conviction.
He would rather his daughter remain single, or have a close relationship with Ning Rongrong and others, than let her be taken by someone else, and certainly not be led astray by that blond-haired guy.
Of course, this was purely Chen Shenge's overthinking.
Chen Qingling would never be given away to anyone else, much less be led astray by that blond-haired guy; her heart was entirely devoted to Ning Rongrong and the others.
"Alright, Father, let go. So many people are watching." Chen Shenge said helplessly, releasing her grip.
"You, really."
It was a rare family gathering, but outsiders had spoiled the mood.
"By the way, Father, I heard from Rongrong that you've taken Chu'er as your apprentice."
"Yes, that's right. What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
"No problem. I'm just curious, Father, can you really teach Chu'er swordsmanship? Can she really master it?"
"What? You don't trust your father?"
"No, it's just that I'm worried that Chu'er, being an ordinary person, might find mastering advanced swordsmanship too much of a strain on her body."
This was Chen Qingling's biggest concern. If it really did, she would definitely insist that her father stop, and Chu'er couldn't continue practicing.
Of course, if it wouldn't strain her body, Qingling would fully support Chu'er continuing.
"Girl, I know what you're worried about. The swordsmanship I teach is very basic and won't strain her body."
"That's good, that's good." Chen Qingling's biggest fear was that it would strain her body. Now that her father had reassured her, she wasn't worried anymore.
"Let's go home."
"Home?"
"Father, are we going back to the thatched hut?"
"Yes."
"But..." Chen Qingling lowered her head, looking at Xiao Wu and the others.
They had just reunited and hadn't even had time to celebrate before they had to separate again.
How could Chen Shenge, as her father, not see through his daughter's little thoughts?
"Girl, you don't want to leave?"
"Yes... Father."
Chen Shenge sighed inwardly.
Sure enough!
Girls grow up and leave home!
Oh no, she wasn't kidnapped by the blond guy, but by Ning Rongrong and the others.
"Alright, let's go tomorrow. You should spend today celebrating with your friends."
These words immediately brought a smile to Chen Qingling's face. She excitedly grabbed her father's wrist, acting all cute and playful.
"Hehehe, I knew Daddy was the best to me!"
"Love you, muah~" Chen Qingling blew a kiss, then flapped her wings and landed steadily on the ground.
"Qingling…"
"Sister Qingling, you're leaving again."
Chen Qingling smiled slightly. "Don't worry, I can stay with you all today."
"Besides, my trip home won't take long. Once everything is over, I'll fulfill my promise to you and travel the continent."
"Okay."
Watching her daughter chatting and laughing with Ning Rongrong and the others, Chen Shenge was about to leave when she heard Shui Ling'er's voice.
"Senior, please wait a moment."
Seeing Shui Ling'er flying towards her, Chen Shenge raised an eyebrow.
"Is there something you need?"
"Senior, you are Qingling's father, naturally a distinguished guest of our Four Elements Academy. Why not stay at our academy for the night?"
"Our academy will certainly ensure your satisfaction, Senior." Shui Ling'er said sincerely, hoping he would stay for the night.
Even a short stay would be a tremendous benefit to the Four Elements Academy.
Chen Shenge was a reclusive powerhouse; his presence at the academy for even one night would be enough to elevate the academy to a new level.
Shui Ling'er's actions were also driven by a selfish motive; she desperately wanted the Four Elements Academy to improve. She
practically said, "Senior, I desperately want to improve."
Chen Shenge's silence made Shui Ling'er tremble with fear, terrified of offending a reclusive powerhouse.
"Alright, I'll trouble your academy to arrange a room for me."
Chen Shenge thought for a moment, and seeing that the Four Elements Academy genuinely cared for his daughter, he agreed. It
was just a short stay, nothing bad would happen, and it wouldn't cost him anything.
"No trouble at all, senior, I'll show you the way."
Shui Ling'er personally arranged a room for Chen Shenge, and only after seeing him settle in did her heart finally settle down.
Meanwhile, Chen Qingling chatted happily with Ning Rongrong and the others as they walked.
That evening, a banquet was held for Chen Qingling to celebrate her emergence from her cocoon.
The next morning,
without disturbing anyone, Chen Shenge returned to the Star Dou Great Forest with his daughter.
Looking at the familiar yet somewhat strange Star Dou Great Forest, Chen Qingling said leisurely,
"Father, now that I've become a god, you won't hide anything from me anymore, right?"
Chen Shenge nodded slightly, "That's right. What do you want to know, little girl? Father will answer anything I know."
Chen Qingling jumped playfully, sticking out her tongue, "I don't have anything to ask. I asked all my questions a long time ago."
Chen Shenge: …
Okay, okay!
You're teasing your father, aren't you!
"Hahaha, Daddy, don't be angry. Go back to your thatched hut, I'll go see Mommy first."
Chen Shenge frowned. "Can't your daddy see that irresponsible woman himself?"
Chen Qingling panicked upon hearing this and quickly waved her hands.
"No, no, absolutely not!"
"Daddy, do you remember what I said? I promised to bring Mommy back to the thatched hut myself. How can I break my promise?"
"This..." Looking at the serious Chen Qingling, Chen Shenge sighed helplessly. "Alright, alright, Daddy is waiting for you to bring your mother back to the thatched hut so I can see her."
"Hehehe, don't worry, I definitely will!" "
Daddy, you have to promise me you'll bully Mommy a bit to vent your disregard for us. It would be best if you gave me a little brother or sister."
Gu Yuena: Child, you're so filial!
Filial piety breeds strength, easy to beat.
Chen Shenge smiled without saying a word, giving his daughter a thumbs up in his heart.
Immediately, Chen Shenge flashed back to the thatched hut, awaiting good news from her daughter.
Chen Qingling, on the other hand, rushed to the Lake of Life.
At the Lake of Life,
the ferocious beasts, including Di Tian, who were absorbing the overflowing energy of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, sensed a menacing aura rushing towards them and immediately stopped.
"Someone's coming to the Lake of Life!"
"Who's so bold? Aren't they afraid of intruding into the territory of the soul beasts?"
"Sigh, without Da Ming and Er Ming, no one's guarding our Lake of Life anymore."
Soon, Chen Qingling arrived at the Lake of Life.
The next moment, several fierce beams of light swept over her.
Upon seeing the newcomer's face, Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts were stunned, unable to recover for a moment.
Seeing that Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts still hadn't reacted, Chen Qingling weakly spoke.
"Are you alright?"
"Young...Young Master?! Is your obsession this deep? You've even turned into a vengeful ghost." The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm trembled all over, speaking in a trembling voice.
Chen Qingling was speechless. They actually thought she was a ghost?
She was clearly standing there alive; shouldn't they be saying, "Master, you're not dead?"
Calling herself a ghost? There's no such thing as a ghost in Douluo Continent. Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, you're really funny!
Di Tian was the first to react, blinking his dragon eyes to make sure he wasn't mistaken, and then respectfully said
, "Greetings, Young Master!"
With one taking the lead, the other ferocious beasts quickly followed suit, also respectfully calling out,
"Greetings, Young Master."
"Young Master, weren't you dead? How come you're suddenly alive again?"
Chen Qingling: …
Very good, very good. Don't say that next time.
Oh well, that's it.
Could she expect a bunch of simple-minded ferocious beasts to be more tactful?
Chen Qingling had seen so many soul beasts; she naturally knew their personalities.
Ninety-nine percent of soul beasts were straightforward; they would say what
they meant without holding back. This was exactly what Chen Qingling wanted. She was the same way—direct and straightforward in her actions, never beating around the bush.
"What? You all wish for your young master to die?"
Di Tian shook his head, "No, no, how could we possibly curse you to death, Young Master?"
"Wait! Young Master, you have divine power fluctuations? Could it be that you have already become a god?"
Chen Qingling nodded slightly, "Yes, I inherited the Butterfly God's position when I broke out of my cocoon."
These words immediately ignited Di Tian's fighting spirit.
Excellent!
The Young Master has become a god!
This greatly increases the success rate of their soul beast lineage's counterattack against the God Realm!
"Congratulations on becoming a god, Young Master!"
"Young Master, I will immediately inform the Master of the good news."
"No need, don't trouble yourself, Di Tian. I will go down myself."
After all, it concerns her own family matters; there's no need to trouble an outsider.
Then, under the watchful eyes of Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts, Chen Qingling entered the bottom of the Lake of Life to meet her mother, Gu Yuena.
Gu Yuena slowly opened her eyes, unable to suppress the smile on her face any longer. "Child, you've finally come."
"Mother!"
Chen Qingling rushed into Gu Yuena's arms without hesitation. "Mother, I missed you so much."
