Returning from the Immortal World
-
chapter-67
Tang Xiu’s complexion turned cold. With an aloof and indifferent expression, he looked at Chen Zhizhong, who was kneeling in front of him. In his view, even if Chen Zhizhong were to worship him as a master, he wouldn’t have great achievements in his entire life. At the most, he would only be barely able to ascend to be an immortal with great difficulty.
In his previous life…
How many powerful immortals had begged him to become his disciple in the Immortal World? And what happened in the end? He only accepted a selected few of gifted people amongst them as unofficial disciples on a whim.
“I refuse!”
Tang Xiu rejected coldly. He then stood up as he looked at Long Hanwen and said, “Uncle Long, I still have other things to do. I’ll go back first.”“…”
Long Hanwen looked at Tang Xiu with a strange expression, as he then looked at the kneeling Chen Zhizhong on the floor. His mouth twitched for a few times before he spoke with a smile, “Well, since you have things to do, then go first! Remember that if you have time later, call Little Yu and Little Lin to visit our home and have a meal together.”
Tang Xiu nodded as he greeted Long Zhengyu and then directly left.
“Dad, I’ll escort Tang Xiu back.”
Long Zhengyu hastily replied after he saw such a shocking and hard to believe situation.
In the room, only Long Hanwen and Chen Zhizhong were left. Chen Zhizhong slowly stood up with a grayish complexion as a disappointed expression could be seen in his eyes. He then quietly sat back on the sofa.
Long Hanwen let out a wry smile and spoke, “Brother Chen, why are you like this? Even if Tang Xiu is very powerful, you wouldn’t have to go as far as kneeling down to worship him as master, right?”Chen Zhizhong shook his head and replied with a bitter expression, “Brother Long, you don’t understand. Practicing martial arts is my biggest hobby and a dream for the entirety of my life. I’m well known as a hardcore fanatic of martial arts. However, because my family was too poor, I started to undertake the responsibility to take care of my family and began my business. But my obsession toward the martial arts had never reduced by the slightest bit, and instead was getting bigger along with time. The older I am, the more obsessed I become. I could tell that Master Tang is really very powerful, to the point that I really want to worship him as a Master.”
Long Hanwen then asked with a curious expression, “Didn’t Tang Xiu say that his strength is under yours?”
Chen Zhizhong shook his head again and replied, “You are mistaken. His strength is absolutely above mine! Do you remember the scene when he treated me? His movements are lightning fast with extremely accurate force control. And the most important of all, can you guess it?”
Long Hanwen was confused, “What is it?”
Chen Zhizhong answered in a deep tone, “My cultivation method is a family inheritance, and it’s a method to cultivate inner strength and mind. I have long reached the 2nd Stage 10 years ago. However, no matter how hard and diligently I’ve been practicing, I was unable to breakthrough to the 3rd Stage. And now, not only has Master Tang cured my internal injuries and saved my life through his treatment, but he also has given me a huge benefit. The moment I got cured, I just found out myself that I have broken through the 3rd Stage.”
“Hiss…” Long Hanwen was shocked.
