28: Gu Chen led the team on a training expedition outside the sect.
"Hehe, my dear old father, I don't need any cultivation treasures anymore. If you saw me now, you would have to call me Senior."
Gu Chen muttered with a smile after hearing the message from the communication treasure.
However, his eyes still shimmered with moved tears.
Secret Realms are always filled with both opportunities and dangers, and the casualty rate inside is very high.
It can be said that one careless moment could lead to death inside.
His father, in order to let him break through quickly, was truly risking his life.
"Father, I have taken a powerful Revered Master, and I have now reached the Heaven Soul Peak. So, you don't need to go to any Secret Realm; I don't need treasures now." Gu Chen sent a voice transmission through the communication treasure.
He didn't want his old father to risk danger in a Secret Realm for meaningless things.
"You brat, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't worry, Father will definitely find treasures for you to break through. You must not think too much and suffer Qi Deviation." Almost instantly, Gu's father's urgent voice transmission came through.
He suspected that under the pressure of breaking through to the Heavenly Soul Realm in three years, Gu Chen's mental state was on the verge of collapse.
Otherwise, how could he say such absurd nonsense?
Gu Chen had only left home for ten-plus days. In ten days, breaking from Core Condensation Realm to Heaven Soul Peak? Even if he had a Great Emperor Expert as a Revered Master, it wouldn't necessarily be that fast.
"Father, I'm not talking nonsense. I really have reached the Heaven Soul Peak." Gu Chen replied helplessly.
He didn't know how to explain it to his old father.
He couldn't reveal everything about the Sect to the outside.
Moreover, even if he told his father, he wouldn't necessarily believe him.
He would just think his brain had a problem.
After all, the Heaven-Defying cultivation environment of the Qingtian Sect is unimaginable to those who haven't experienced it personally.
"Stop talking, Chen'er. Even if I have to risk my old life, I will find treasures for you to break through. You should return and rest for a while, and wait for Father's good news." Gu's father's heartbroken voice came through.
He was certain that Gu Chen was nearing the point of Qi Deviation; otherwise, he wouldn't keep emphasizing his Breakthrough to the Heavenly Soul Realm.
Therefore, he wanted to call Gu Chen back to rest well to avoid falling into an irredeemable situation.
"Sigh, Father, why don't you believe me?"
After putting away the communication treasure.
Gu Chen strode out of the Trial Pagoda and headed towards the Qingtian Sect Main Hall.
He prepared to ask Jiang Chen for instructions.
To see if he could go to a Secret Realm for training, and by the way, go home to give his old father a surprise.
During this time, he was either cultivating in the Time Pagoda or on the way to the Trial Pagoda; it was time to go out and walk around.
Qingtian Sect, Main Hall.
Jiang Chen was lying on a chair, enjoying Liu Shu's attentive service.
When thirsty, Liu Shu handed tea to his mouth.
When tired, Liu Shu massaged his shoulders and legs.
When hungry, Liu Shu fed him various Spirit Beast meat and spirit fruits.
"Disciple Gu Chen, greets Revered Master." Gu Chen walked into the hall and bowed to Jiang Chen.
As for Liu Shu serving Jiang Chen, he was already used to it.
"Oh, Disciple Gu Chen, do you have something to report?" Jiang Chen lay on the chair, took a sip of the tea handed by Liu Shu, and asked lightly.
He hadn't summoned Gu Chen; since he came, it must be for something.
"Reporting to Revered Master, Disciple learned that a Secret Realm is about to open, and I want to go for some training." Gu Chen replied while bowing.
"Hmm, wanting to go to a Secret Realm for training is a good thing."
Jiang Chen pondered for a while and continued, "How about this, you go and call your Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters to gather at the square. I will have someone take you all to train together."
Since it's going to a Secret Realm, letting Gu Chen go alone is fine.
It would be better to take a few Disciples to train; they had been cultivating in the Time Pagoda for long enough, it was time to take them out to venture.
"This... Revered Master, actually this Secret Realm is not far from the Disciple's home. I would like to take this opportunity to go home and have a look." Gu Chen explained embarrassedly.
He had thought that after Jiang Chen agreed, he would at most send a powerful expert to accompany him back.
When chatting with Qin Fei'er in the Time Pagoda, he had heard about Qin Fei'er's trip home.
Now, Jiang Chen wanted to call all the Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters, so his hope of going home was dashed.
After all, the Sect's arranged trial is official business.
He felt embarrassed to ask Night Owl and the others and the Sect's powerful experts to accompany him home.
"Hehe, that's easy to handle. Since it's not far from your home, going back for a look is only human nature. This trip to the Secret Realm will be led by you." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Since they were already at the Disciple's doorstep, not letting the Disciple go back to take a look would make him a very unreasonable Revered Master.
Therefore, letting Gu Chen lead this trial was the best choice.
Coincidentally, in his System backpack, there were still two Saint Peak Summoning Cards.
Summoning them to accompany Gu Chen and his companions would be enough.
Of course, his Divine Sense power would also remain on them.
If they encountered an expert above the Saint level, he could manifest a Divine Sense Clone at any time to save them, so safety was absolutely guaranteed.
"Thank you, Revered Master. Disciple will certainly not fail Revered Master's trust." Gu Chen bowed in ecstasy.
He didn't expect the Revered Master to be so understanding, letting him lead the team directly.
This trip home was set in stone.
"Go and notify Night Owl and the others. I will arrange accompanying experts for you now." Jiang Chen waved his hand and said slowly.
"Yes, Revered Master, I will go and call Senior Brother Ye and the others." Gu Chen bowed again and walked out of the hall happily to notify Night Owl and the others.
After Gu Chen left the hall.
Jiang Chen commanded the System, "System, use the two Saint Peak Summoning Cards in the backpack."
[Beep, use successful, summoning Saint Peak experts for the Host...]
Soon, two middle-aged men in green robes came to Jiang Chen and bowed, "Subordinates Niu Bi and Shang Tian greet the Sect Master."
"Niu Bi, Shang Tian? What kind of weird names are these?"
Jiang Chen looked at the two and smiled lightly, "Niu Bi, Shang Tian, you two go to the square and wait now."
"Later, my few Personal Disciples and Inner Sect Disciples are going to train in a Secret Realm. You go and protect their safety. Everything must be ordered by a Personal Disciple named Gu Chen."
"Yes, Sect Master!" Niu Bi and Shang Tian agreed, turned, stepped out of the hall, and walked towards the square.
"Sect Master, eat a spirit fruit." After Niu Bi and Shang Tian left, Liu Shu smiled and handed a spirit fruit to Jiang Chen's mouth.
"Ah woo!" Jiang Chen opened his big mouth and swallowed the spirit fruit, not even letting the aftertaste go.
"Sect Master, drink tea!" Liu Shu's face turned slightly red, and she handed a cup of enlightenment tea to Jiang Chen again.
"Hehe, another relaxed and happy day." Jiang Chen lay on the chair, drank the tea with a smile, and continued his leisurely life.
On the square.
Night Owl and the others appeared beside Gu Chen with happy faces.
When they heard they could leave the Sect to train in a Secret Realm, they arrived at the square at light speed.
Counting the time in the Time Pagoda, they had been cultivating for six or seven years.
Although their cultivation was skyrocketing, it was also very boring, so being able to leave the Sect for training was like a vacation.
"Junior Brother Gu, let's go quickly. Your Senior Brother has not killed anyone for a few days." Night Owl patted Gu Chen's shoulder and said impatiently.
"That's right, Senior Brother Gu, let's go quickly." Mu Xueqing and Qin Fei'er echoed from the side.
"Okay, Senior Brother Ye, Junior Sisters, the Secret Realm hasn't opened yet. I need to go back and see my father first. I'm sorry to trouble you to accompany me home first." Gu Chen touched his head and said awkwardly.
Although Jiang Chen had already let him lead the team, and Niu Bi and Shang Tian would follow his orders.
But going home was his private business after all, so telling Night Owl and the others in advance would avoid them having different thoughts.
"Junior Brother Gu, what are you saying?"
"What trouble? We are close Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters. Your father is my father. How could it be trouble to go back and see our father? Tell me if our father has any enemies; I'll go and take them out for our father."
Hearing this.
Night Owl grabbed Gu Chen's shoulder and said.
Actually, for him, going anywhere was the same; as long as there were people to kill, that was a Secret Realm.
"Hehe, enemies? Who doesn't have a few? Senior Brother Ye, if you run into them, just take them out." Gu Chen replied with a smile.
"Good, good, Senior Brother won't be polite with you." Night Owl showed a bloodthirsty smile.
"Senior Brother Gu, we have no opinion. You say where to go first, we go."
"Hmm, hmm, Senior Brother Gu, we follow you."
Mu Xueqing and Qin Fei'er said obediently.
"Thank you, Junior Sisters, for your understanding. Let's set off."
Gu Chen thanked the two.
He ordered Niu Bi and Shang Tian to take them to fly; otherwise, at their current speed, they wouldn't be able to fly there even if the Secret Realm closed.
