Chapter 1467: He Seemed Composed And Confident
They failed to trick him. Instead, he caught them red-handed. Since then, Lan Yue had been threatening them with the incident. He demanded their service in exchange for the secrecy, or else he would inform their teacher about what they did. It seemed as though they were his followers.
Those days, the only thing on Lan Waihu’s mind was to seek vengeance. She had forgotten entirely about Yan Chen. Every day, she would spend most of her time with Qian Lingyu planning their next move.
Yan Chen finally realized that she had a change of attitude. He understood that he might have left her out for too long, so he started to approach her more frequently.
She was still a little mad at Yan Chen. Ever since their last argument, they had not met for a while. Hence, it was no surprise that she behaved icily towards him, even when he came to see her. She was no longer the girl who used to follow him around.
What she did not know was that it was the most critical time for Yan Chen, as he could take his power another step higher. To achieve level nine, he had to focus wholeheartedly on his practice without the tiniest distraction. Yan Chen wanted to keep the achievement as a surprise for her, so he did not say anything about it.
He could have done it easily in three months, but he could hardly focus on his practice anymore due to Lan Waihu’s situation. To his dismay, his advancement to level nine went out of control. If Gu Canmo had not found him in time, he would already be dead.
He survived, but the incident had everyone in Tianju Hall in disbelief. Gu Canmo was really worried about him. Even though he had successfully attained a spiritual power of level nine, there was a price to pay. The lingering side effect from the incident would paralyze him for two days consecutively every month.
The side effect was difficult to be cured unless The Lord himself treated it. Otherwise, he would have to live with the condition for life.
