When Chen Sui Nian returned home, he was surprised to see Qi Jing Chun.
Qi Jing Chun was watching Chen Ping An practice his boxing. Seeing Chen Sui Nian return with Wang Zhu, he smiled at Chen Sui Nian and said, "Chen Sui Nian, I came here to talk to you about something!"
Chen Sui Nian was about to use a spell to isolate heaven and earth, but Qi Jing Chun waved his hand and smiled, "Don't worry!"
Qi Jing Chun said, "I have been stationed in this world for nearly sixty years. After that, I will leave. Before I leave, I want to tell you a few things!"
Chen Sui Nian smiled, "Oh? You're leaving?"
Qi Jing Chun nodded. Chen Sui Nian thought for a moment, "Since you're leaving, I'll throw you a farewell feast. Since it's not a secret matter, how about we drink and chat?"
Qi Jing Chun smiled and nodded, "That's a good idea!"
Chen Sui Nian said to Lu Chen, who was lying on a chair, "Lu Chen, go and call Miss Xiu Xiu over!"
Lu Chen looked at Chen Sui Nian in disbelief, "Me?"
Chen Sui Nian said, "Who else? Go and invite Miss Xiu Xiu to dinner as an elder. This way, Master Ruan won't have anything to say!"
Lu Chen said weakly, "I understand. You just keep ordering me around!"
Chen Sui Nian said, "By the way, Ping An, Ning Ya, and Mr. Qi, what do you want to eat? Tell Lu Chen and have him buy it back!"
Lu Chen glared at Chen Sui Nian. Chen Sui Nian said, "Go quickly! You and Miss Xiu Xiu, buy whatever you want to eat!"
Lu Chen asked, "Really? I can eat whatever I want?"
Chen Sui Nian said, "Just go already!!"
——
"Mr. Qi, you must think I'm a laughingstock!" Chen Sui Nian boiled a pot of water and poured a cup of tea for Qi Jing Chun.
Qi Jing Chun picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"This... is the spirit tea carefully cultivated on the mountain by the Great Sage's lineage?"
Chen Sui Nian nodded, "Yes! Mr. Qi, you actually recognized it?"
Qi Jing Chun smiled, "When my master debated with the Great Sage, I had the honor of drinking it. It is said that the tea is grown from a tea tree that the Great Sage personally cultivated. It is only brought out for honored guests to share and savor!"
"Only one or two pounds are harvested every hundred years!"
"And this is different from the one I drank before. This should be a thousand-year-old tea! It is the most precious gift of the Great Sage!"
Chen Sui Nian was stunned!
Ah? So precious? I thought it was just ordinary tea!
A Liang had told Chen Sui Nian before that there was a lot of this kind of tea at home! As long as Chen Sui Nian wanted it, there was plenty!
And A Liang also said, one pound of tea for one pound of Chen Sui Nian's wine!
Chen Sui Nian thought it tasted pretty good and agreed!
Chen Sui Nian even went to the mountain of the Great Sage's lineage to pick the tea leaves himself!
No wonder the Great Sage was so stingy back then.
Chen Sui Nian picked dozens of pounds and shouted loudly, "It's just a few tea trees! Isn't there half left? I'll just send you some after I've fried the tea! Stingy!"
No wonder the Great Sage's face turned dark and his mouth twitched when he knew that A Liang had "taken" ten pounds of tea from home!
No wonder the normally good-natured Great Sage had cursed at him and slapped him hard, yelling at him to get out!
He stole his old man's treasured tea to drink with wine!
You damn A Liang——
You really did it, A Liang!
Chen Sui Nian's mouth twitched. He forced a smile and said, "Ah, is that so?"
Qi Jing Chun looked at Chen Sui Nian, "This was a personal gift from the Great Sage."
Chen Sui Nian looked very serious, "Yes, the Great Sage thought I was a talented young man, a promising leader! He personally gifted me the tea leaves! And hoped that I would continue to strive for excellence!"
Qi Jing Chun smiled and nodded. Indeed, a talented young man! At such an age, with such cultivation!
Chen Sui Nian's face remained unchanged, but in his heart, he muttered, A Liang, the Great Sage's son, gave it to me, which means it's equivalent to the Great Sage giving it to me! Although the Great Sage always scolds me, saying that I bring shame upon myself, am idle, have no morals, am devoid of conscience, and am in cahoots with A Liang, but the Great Sage is an elder! Elders love to speak in reverse! So the Great Sage is actually praising me!
That's right! He's praising me!
Ning Yao, who was beside him, also picked up her teacup and said, "Ah? Such precious tea, you're giving us this every day?"
Chen Sui Nian said, "Oh, it's nothing, just some tea! If you like it, it's fine!"
Anyway, with A Liang around, there's an endless supply of this tea! Right?
Later, Lu Chen brought Ruan Xiu back, both of them carrying large and small bags!
Especially Ruan Xiu, Chen Sui Nian knew at a glance that everything inside was her favorite!
Ruan Xiu's eyes sparkled as she handed the food to Chen Sui Nian. Chen Sui Nian smiled helplessly. He took the food and went to the kitchen to cook.
——
The few of them were eating heartily at the dinner table. Chen Sui Nian looked at Qi Jing Chun and asked, "Mr. Qi, what is it you want to tell me?"
Qi Jing Chun took a sip of wine and exclaimed, "Good wine!"
Qi Jing Chun handed two engraved seals to Chen Ping An. Chen Sui Nian took a look and saw that one of them was engraved with three characters - "Chen Eleven!"
Chen Sui Nian smiled, Eleventh Realm?
Hahaha!
Chen Sui Nian said, "Ping An, keep that seal!"
Chen Ping An was about to refuse, but when he heard his brother say this, he accepted it!
Qi Jing Chun said, "I'm leaving!"
"Chen Ping An, you are a good boy. So can I ask you to do me a favor and take care of Wang Zhu? Try to guide her towards goodness and teach her the way of things!"
Wang Zhu, who was wolfing down a chicken leg, stared blankly at Qi Jing Chun!
Chen Ping An was also stunned, "Ah, Mr. Qi, I haven't studied!"
Qi Jing Chun smiled, "Well, I came here for another small matter, which is to take you as my student!"
"However, I may have some unforeseen events in the near future and won't be able to teach you reading and writing for long. And my way of things may not be suitable for you. Therefore, I can only entrust you to my master! Let him teach you to read!"
Chen Ping An was taken aback, Mr. Qi's master?
Lu Chen's eyes widened, What? Qi Jing Chun, you want to steal my disciple?
No, your old scholar master also wants to steal my disciple?
I'm done with you! You damn Wen Sheng lineage, Chen Ping An will be miserable following you!
Chen Ping An glanced at Lu Chen and then said to Mr. Qi, "Sorry, Mr. Qi, I..."
Qi Jing Chun glanced at Lu Chen and then at Chen Ping An, "Oh, I see! It's fine! Then I'll disturb you..."
At this moment, Chen Sui Nian, who had been silent, smiled and said, "Mr. Qi, I think it's fine!"
Qi Jing Chun and Lu Chen both looked at Chen Sui Nian!
Chen Sui Nian smiled, "One being a student, and one being a Taoist, what's the conflict?"
Lu Chen was speechless. Are you really clueless or are you pretending to be clueless? In the world of the Ethereal, accepting a master is like becoming a disciple!
Chen Sui Nian looked at Lu Chen, "Your knowledge is vast, but it's not suitable for little Ping An! It's too advanced! Besides, you're a Taoist. Can you teach? Can you teach the way of things, reading and writing?"
"Mr. Qi's master, the Wen Sheng, doesn't need to say anything else, at least he knows how to teach!"
Lu Chen was stunned, and then he cursed, "I'm not illiterate!"
Chen Sui Nian ignored Lu Chen completely and looked at Qi Jing Chun instead, "Mr. Qi, what do you think? Your master is in the Gongde Forest, I'll take care of it!"
Qi Jing Chun glanced at Chen Ping An and smiled, "The Wen Sheng lineage is magnanimous! Any kind of knowledge can be absorbed!"
"It doesn't matter if Chen Ping An is a student of the Wen Sheng lineage or not, but young people cannot avoid reading. Only through reading can the world be unhindered!"
"I will inform my master later, and my master should have no objections! My master will not refuse a young man who wants to read! Even if he is not part of the Wen Sheng lineage, so what! It doesn't matter!"
Lu Chen was so angry that he gritted his teeth when he heard Qi Jing Chun's words!
Damn it!
Not a member of the Wen Sheng lineage ~ so what ~!
Nonsense! Won't Chen Ping An end up with the knowledge and label of your Wen Sheng lineage?
With Chen Ping An's personality, won't the Wen Sheng who teaches him be his true master?
Won't that shameless old scholar shamelessly force Chen Ping An to be his disciple?
Lu Chen thought carefully for a while! In the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "Qi Jing Chun, you're going to die!"
Qi Jing Chun smiled faintly, It's only a matter of time!
"Anyway, my master and the Wen Sheng lineage have no objections!"
Lu Chen said, "I... I have no objections! But Chen Ping An absolutely cannot suffer a single bit in your Wen Sheng lineage! Chen Ping An can only listen to your knowledge! You absolutely cannot teach your lineage's inheritance to Chen Ping An!"
"Also, Chen Ping An is my, Lu Chen's, predetermined disciple! If the Wen Sheng lineage wrongs him in the slightest, I will definitely make my move!"
Qi Jing Chun smiled faintly, the Wen Sheng lineage is the most protective of its own!
Lu Chen told Chen Ping An through his heart, "Ping An, remember, the Wen Sheng lineage is very down and out now. If you suffer any injustice, just tell me, and I will help you get revenge! When you don't want to study anymore, just tell me, and I will take you back to Qingming Heaven!"
"Also, the Wen Sheng lineage's knowledge is indeed good! Listen to them more..."
Lu Chen kept talking on and on. Chen Ping An smiled and nodded, a warm feeling flowing through his heart.
Taoist Lu Chen is good, he's really good to me!
Due to Lu Chen's special status, he didn't need to say anything when he accepted Chen Ping An as his disciple, but now things are different!
Qi Jing Chun is about to die, but now his disciple is going to study under Qi Jing Chun's master, so he has to report to his master and tell his senior brother about Chen Ping An and Qi Jing Chun's situation!
This is actually the real reason why Lu Chen doesn't want Chen Ping An to study under Mr. Qi Jing Chun!
He and his senior brother killed the Wen Sheng's disciple, although he was only a monitor! It had nothing to do with him!
But his disciple, a member of the Daoist lineage, is going to study under the Wen Sheng? Isn't that like shitting on the Wen Sheng lineage's head?
The Wen Sheng lineage will definitely bully him! That's why Lu Chen said that if Chen Ping An is bullied, he should tell him!
Yu Dou, who was far away, received an envelope from his junior brother. Yu Dou opened it and was stunned!
But he sighed softly.
For Qingming, for my elder brother, what does it matter if I, Yu Dou, am a sinner?
All karma, I, Yu Dou, will bear it alone!
All sins, I, Yu Dou, will be enough!
So he wrote back to his junior brother with great apology.
The letter said, To be able to make you, my junior brother, reluctant to part with him, even willing to let the Wen Sheng lineage teach him, his talent must be excellent, something you really like! I'm curious what kind of person he is! Qingming will have another "Lu Chen" soon!
It doesn't matter, I had already thought of all the consequences before I came! Even if my nephew ends up joining the Wen Sheng lineage, even if he comes to me for this matter, even if he ends up avenging Qi Jing Chun, I will accept it! If I'm defeated, I will have no resentment in my heart! If he is defeated, I will spare his life! Consider it an apology to you and my nephew, whom I haven't met yet!
Even if he has Qi Jing Chun's inheritance, it doesn't matter!
Some things don't matter anymore!
In the end, my elder brother is sorry for making things difficult for you!
Lu Chen received his senior brother Yu Dou's envelope and sighed. He looked at Qi Jing Chun, then at Chen Ping An, and finally at Chen Sui Nian!
At this moment, Chen Sui Nian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sipped his wine. His expression was calm and serene, a smile playing on his lips!
Lu Chen frowned, Chen Sui Nian, what are you up to?
Lu Chen didn't believe that Chen Sui Nian didn't know about Qi Jing Chun, nor did he believe that Chen Sui Nian couldn't see through this game!
Lu Chen looked at Qi Jing Chun, who was also smiling and drinking!
Qi Jing Chun, what are you doing?
You, Qi Jing Chun, must know by now, right? Why did you agree to let Chen Ping An join the Wen Sheng lineage to study?
You, Chen Sui Nian, and he, Qi Jing Chun, what game are you playing?
Lu Chen has a feeling that these two are playing a big game! It's definitely not limited to the current chessboard!
Just then, Lu Chen received a letter from his master, and Yu Dou, who was far away, also received a letter from his master!
Yu Dou opened it and stood still for a long time, then chuckled bitterly!
Lu Chen opened it and was dumbfounded!
"Well, good! I just took a look at your disciple and learned about his past! I think he's excellent! He's very suitable for cultivating the Dao! Therefore..."
"Therefore, my good disciple, your disciple is mine!"
