569: Leave

It was truly a great pity that he couldn't properly show filial respect to his Master right now.

Chen De couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, yet he had only just recovered his spirits.

Seeing the resources in his hand and thinking about how he couldn't show filial respect to his Master made him even sadder.

Clutching his resources tightly, the conference ended, and the Master and disciple left this small world together.

When they appeared, the people outside saw Chen De beside Ancestor Wuguang and instantly understood who the victor of this event was.

From Wuguang Hall, cheers erupted like a tsunami.

"Who is he?"

"Why haven't I seen him before? He shouldn't be one of the Immortal Laws, right?"

"I know. His name is Yan Zhi. He went in with Senior Brother Lu Li."

"I really didn't expect him to be the final winner."

"Yan Zhi!"

"Yan Zhi!"

"Yan Zhi!"

...Even the Hall Master of Wuguang Hall and the Elders looked at him with much more warmth and kindness than before.

Smiles were plastered across their faces as they looked at them beamingly.

But whether it was Chen De or Ancestor Wuguang, they had long become immune to the words of others.

Whether people praised them or cursed them, they felt nothing at all.

Ancestor Wuguang didn't speak; he just glanced at Chen De and gave him a look.

Chen De naturally knew what he meant.

It was time for him to go out and gain experience!

After Ancestor Wuguang left, the Hall Master of Wuguang Hall made a brief speech, and everyone gradually dispersed.

As for the things promised before the conference, they were naturally delivered one by one.

Outside, Chen De also saw Lu Li and Wu Dan, who had already emerged.

As for Yan Ci and Qiang Wu, first, they didn't achieve victory, and second, they weren't people from Wuguang Hall.

After coming out, they left dejectedly, just like the other eliminated participants.

Chen De looked at them, and they smiled and greeted him.

In fact, Lu Li and Wu Dan probably didn't want to stay here, but they were people of Wuguang Hall, and this was Wuguang Hall.

They couldn't leave even if they wanted to, and Ancestor Wuguang accepting a disciple—wouldn't leaving imply disrespecting the Ancestor?

Including disrespecting Yan Zhi; Ancestor Wuguang might not care, but Yan Zhi might.

Didn't they see the Hall Master and the Elders waiting here? Could they really go back?

Not only did they not go back, but when Chen De appeared, they proactively walked out to meet him.

Lu Li chuckled, "Brother Yan, the first time we met back then, I could tell you were no ordinary person."

"That's right," Wu Dan sighed with emotion. "A golden scale is no mere thing in a pond; once it encounters wind and cloud, it transforms into a dragon. I truly didn't misjudge you back then."

"This time, Brother Yan has achieved his wish and become the Ancestor's disciple. Your brother here is truly happy for you."

"If we don't prepare something, we'd feel truly bad."

Saying this, Yan Ci immediately handed a Storage Ring to Chen De.

"Brother Yan is right, how can we not have something to celebrate with?"

Just like Yan Ci, Wu Dan also pulled out a Storage Ring and handed it to Chen De.

As soon as the two Storage Rings were in hand, Chen De immediately broke into a wide smile.

"Thank you both. From now on, we are brothers among brothers."

"Since you call me Brother Yan, how about I call you Brother Yan and Brother Wu?"

"That is excellent!" Yan Ci and Wu Dan agreed simultaneously.

Now that the results were out, people from the other factions offered simple congratulations and then left.

Fortunately, Ancestor Wuguang's trial didn't result in any deaths, so they could take their people back the same way they brought them.

Chen De, Lu Li, and Wu Dan were now as close as brothers, returning to their residences arm-in-arm.

Looking at those cultivation resources, Chen De almost couldn't resist devouring them all immediately.

But in the end, he temporarily suppressed this urge, deciding to wait until after he left Wuguang Hall.

Three days later, Chen De proactively sought out his Master, Ancestor Wuguang, intending to bid farewell.

Honestly, holding those resources, he just wanted to leave this place quickly.

As Ancestor Wuguang's disciple, he naturally possessed a dedicated means of contact.

For this reason, Chen De also obtained extremely high clearance within Wuguang Hall; there was basically nowhere he couldn't go.

On the other side, Ancestor Wuguang naturally approved wholeheartedly of his newly acquired disciple's intention to depart.

Although he had previously handed over almost all his worldly possessions, as long as he could rescue his Master quickly, it was all worth it.

Before long, Chen De arrived outside Ancestor Wuguang's residence. "Disciple greets Master!"

"Come in."

Ancestor Wuguang's voice traveled out, and Chen De's figure walked in from outside.

After entering, he knelt down and kowtowed to him. "Master, your disciple is here to bid farewell this time."

"I already know," Ancestor Wuguang nodded. "Since you've made up your mind, then go. Gaining more experience is beneficial."

Chen De replied, "Yes, Master!"

He then stood rooted to the spot, and after a while, there was still no movement.

Ancestor Wuguang just watched him silently with a deep gaze, saying nothing.

"Haha, Master, then I shall take my leave now." Chen De gave an awkward laugh and bid farewell to his Master.

"Mm, go."

Ancestor Wuguang gave this reply; he truly wanted the other party to leave quickly.

As Chen De slowly retreated from the place, the entrance completely closed off... Chen De could have actually just run away, but he thought that Yan Zhi's identity was still useful, including the connection to Ancestor Wuguang, which might come in handy someday.

In this case, personally going to bid farewell was clearly a good choice.

Maybe if his luck was good, he might even get another batch of cultivation resources or something.

Although he didn't get a bonus, the connection was preserved, so it wasn't a wasted trip.

After bidding farewell to Ancestor Wuguang, Chen De officially left Wuguang Hall.

The next time he returned, he might truly have the ability to show filial respect to his Master.

However, Chen De constantly felt a sense of being spied upon while on the road.

Therefore, he did not use the power of the Evil God Essence at all.

He even deliberately found an opportunity to investigate the other party during his journey.

Immortal Law Realm Fifth Transformation. Their appearance on the map was exactly the same as when Ancestor Wuguang appeared at the conference.

Sure enough, even after traveling so far, his Master was still following him from behind.

Was he worried?

Regarding him following behind, Chen De acted as if nothing was happening.

He traveled when he should, rested when he should, and when cultivating, he took out a portion of the resources given by Ancestor Wuguang to aid his practice.

After a long time passed like this, Chen De no longer felt the sensation of being spied upon.

And after testing again using the System Map, he still couldn't detect the presence of Ancestor Wuguang.

It seemed he had truly left.

However, Chen De was a cautious person, so he spent the same amount of time acting as if the Ancestor was still present.

This time, Chen De could finally relax. Having someone constantly following him was truly inconvenient; it even forced him to delay his breakthrough.
