Chapter 852 - 855: Intercept Midway
"I won’t take a master! I really like Ling’er, and I want to continue pursuing her, I want to be with her!"
Lou Qiangqiang’s resolute voice rang out in the banquet hall.
A flicker of approval crossed Jiang Chen’s eyes as he chuckled, "Have you really decided not to take a master? If you had, perhaps when my strength increases, I could help you improve your physique so you could practice the Cultivation Technique that I practice."
Everyone in the banquet hall was startled and looked at Jiang Chen in unison. They were all aware of Jiang Chen’s strength, and the power of his Cultivation Technique was clear to those who had seen it and rumored among those who had not. Everyone understood that Jiang Chen’s words were incredibly tempting, not just for people around his age like Tang Yulin and Dong Yu, but even for Tang Jiawei, Tang Chengye, and Dong Tianchen, who all felt their hearts stir in that moment.
"Forget it, compared to Cultivation Techniques and strength, I still prefer Ling’er!" Lou Qiangqiang shook his head without hesitation, a hint of regret in his eyes: "Although it’s a bit regrettable, I really like Ling’er, and I really want to be with her!"
"Good!"
Jiang Chen burst into laughter, looking at Lou Qiangqiang: "Not bad! In today’s society, it’s rare to find young people who can withstand such temptation. Qiangqiang, you’ve impressed me."
"Big brother, I don’t have lofty ambitions. I just want to find a girl I like and live a stable life. As long as she’s fine and I’m fine, isn’t that enough?" Lou Qiangqiang laughed naively, scratching his head.
Jiang Chen nodded emphatically: "You’re young, but you’ve stated what most people can’t see through in their entire lives. With your pure heart alone, come with us to the Chixiao Sect. After we leave Chixiao Sect, let’s go to Dingjing together, since it’s almost time for you to start school."
"Go together?" Lou Qiangqiang blinked in surprise, his face showing delight; "Big brother, are you agreeing to let me and Ling’er be together?"
"What together? I simply agreed to your pursuit of Ling’er, alright? Don’t switch up the concept on me, and then use my words to indirectly chase after Ling’er."
Jiang Chen glared at Lou Qiangqiang, saying irritably: "Just now you were all silly, and now your brain is pretty quick!"
