"Why would a great man who can make even the lord of a city treat him with utmost respect want to save himself?"
"Is he from General Chen's mansion? No, probably not."
"After Grandpa Chen Zangfeng made up his mind to expel the young master to Kowloon City, he had the intention of letting him live an ordinary life here. There is no way he would send people to protect him secretly."
Ling'er's mind was spinning, but she still couldn't think of a reason, so she had to muster the courage to ask: "Senior, do you know my young master? Did he ask you to save me? Is the young master okay?"
When the girl was talking, her bright eyes kept looking left and right, and her slightly frowned eyebrows added a bit of anxiety, presumably because she was worried about the young master's safety.
Chen Shen still played the role of a master in black robes, nodded slightly, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Don't worry, your young master is very good."
Ling'er's mind was simple, lest this girl be tricked into telling her something one day, so Chen Shen decided not to tell her that he was the man in black robe for the time being.
Besides, now that City Lord Xiao is still present, his true identity cannot be exposed.
So, Chen Shen lowered his voice and continued: "Actually, I passed by Kowloon City this time and met that boy Chen Shen by chance."
"Although it was just a quick glance, I have already seen that he values love and justice, is courageous and strategic, and coupled with his rare talent in alchemy, he immediately became interested in talents and wanted to accept him as his personal disciple!
"
Chen Shen was boasting about himself without any sense of moral integrity, but he didn't expect that it tasted quite good.
This guy enjoyed it: "At first, that kid didn't agree to be my apprentice. He said that he was a student of Kowloon College and he had no plans to become another apprentice at the moment."
"Hmph, that's ridiculous! What kind of bullshit is Jiulong College? Apart from a few old immortals in Imperial College, who else in Daxia is more qualified to recruit disciples than me?"
Listening to Chen Shen's nonsense, Ling'er didn't question it at all!
Come to think of it, the man in black robe should be so awesome! Otherwise, how could he make the lord of a city serve him as devotedly as he serves his own father?
"Little girl, I have already informed your young master about your rescue, so you can rest assured."
"In order to cooperate with my acting, that boy will pretend to know nothing. As for the old housekeeper in your house, City Lord Xiao will also bring him to the City Lord's Mansion for protection in the name of arresting the criminal's accomplices."
The young man under the black robe slowly said: "There are still ten days left in the Hundred Schools League. During this period, you all can only stay in the city lord's mansion without leaving the gate, and you can't meet your master, so as not to miss him tonight.
The Xue family found flaws in their actions. Can it be done?"
Chen Shen didn't let them return to his house, firstly because he was afraid of exposing his flaws, and secondly, to protect Miao Ling and Shun Lao, so as to prevent the Xue family from jumping over the wall and attacking the most important people around him.
Now, leaving Miao Ling and Shun Lao in the city lord's mansion is undoubtedly the best choice.
Because in Xiao Mo's eyes, the man in black robe is a genuine Great Mystic Master, and he is also an alchemy expert who can refine top-grade realm-breaking elixirs. He will never dare to neglect Ling'er and Shun Lao.
Although Ling'er felt reluctant to give up, she also understood that the Hundred Schools League ten days later was of great significance to her young master, so she nodded obediently: "Junior understands, thank you senior for helping me... Senior, don't worry, Ling'er will definitely
Be obedient and don't hold back the young master so that he can participate in the competition with peace of mind!"
Ling'er is so cute and sensible.
Chen Shen subconsciously glanced secretly at the girl in front of him, and saw that the girl's bright eyes clearly contained deep lovesickness and concern, which made Chen Shen's heart skip a beat.
Unfortunately, now is not the time to confess everything.
This kidnapping incident sounded the alarm for Chen Shen——
In this world where the strong are slaves and the weak are flesh and blood, only with strong strength can you protect those around you!
Just imagine, if Chen Shen was really a Great Mystic Master, the Xue family would kneel down and lick him like a pug before it was too late, so how would they dare to provoke him?
With the shock of Ling'er's abduction, Chen Shen became more determined to become stronger.
He took a deep breath, temporarily put all the complicated emotions behind him, and said, "Okay! Then you can live peacefully in the City Lord's Mansion. After the Hundred Schools League, I will reward you with something ten times better than you are now."
The young master of the Chen family!"
Then, the young man said to City Master Xiao who was sitting upright: "You have done a good job in this matter. That high-grade realm-breaking pill is your reward and it belongs to you!"
What Xiao Mo was waiting for was the words from the man in black robe. He finally dared to take the mysterious pill that he had been thinking about for a long time!
For a moment, he stood up excitedly and clasped his fists: "Thank you, senior, for your love!"
The man in black robe nodded, stopped talking, and left directly.
After that, Xiao Mo looked at Miao Ling with a kind face: "To be accepted as a direct disciple by such a senior master, your young master has a bright future!"
City Lord Xiao's words were 30% complimentary and 70% sincere.
The Great Mystic Master is also a great expert in alchemy. With such a heavyweight master, how can he still be so impressive in this country of Great Xia?
Hearing this, Ling'er's pure and beautiful face suddenly burst into joy. This little girl is happy for her young master!
She was thinking happily in her heart: "I knew Master Chen Shen was the best, hehe..."
Next, Xiao Mo personally arranged all the food and clothing expenses for Miao Ling. He took care of everything. Miao Ling understood that this was because she had taken advantage of the young master!
"Miss Ling'er, from now on, you will treat my City Lord's Mansion as your other home. If you have any needs, please come to me directly. Don't be polite."
"By the way, this healing pill should help your injury."
Xiao Mo said and stuffed a middle-grade healing pill into Miao Ling's hand.
It's not that Xiao Mo is stingy.
The flesh on Miao Ling's wrists and ankles was only abraded, and no muscles or bones were injured. The effect of the middle-grade healing pill was more than enough to treat it.
In fact, the reason why Chen Shen did not give Linger the healing pill in person was to avoid suspicion.
Normally speaking, as a master, even if he loves and protects a disciple, he will not be too attentive to his disciple's "servants".
If Chen Shen showed extreme concern, it would arouse suspicion.
Just like now, not only did Xiao Mo not have the slightest suspicion, but he felt that the black-robed man's momentary "negligence" gave him an opportunity to get close to Chen Shen!
…
At this moment, Chen Shen, who had no worries about his future, had already secretly changed into a black robe, and hurried to the Linglong Colosseum with his true appearance.
The young man drove quickly while thinking in his mind: "Xue Tianxiao, Xue Yang, your kidnapping of Miao Ling is not over yet. Sooner or later, I will kill you bastard father and son!"
"Before that, I have to collect some interest first..."
