Not long.

Lu Chusheng is back.

His face was pale, but at least he could drink.

As soon as he entered the door, he stared at the leftovers on the table and the pot of spirit wine with green eyes.

Lu Chusheng sat down and was quite polite. He looked at Jiang Bei first... and didn't rush to pick up his chopsticks.

"Brother Lu, can you first explain to me what the identity of the Holy Son of Tianji Sect is?" Jiang Bei asked.

“…”

After these words were spoken, Lu Chusheng's expression became even more embarrassed, and the hand that was gradually reaching for the chopsticks was silently retracted.

But he still chose to tell the truth...

"Brother Jiang, you should not be from Yunzhou, right?" Lu Chusheng asked.

Jiang Bei didn't say anything. This was not a good question to answer.

"Oh!" Lu Chusheng sighed heavily.

"I am just gambling... I want to bet on finding a senior who doesn't know who the Holy Son of Tianji Sect is and is willing to help me."

“…”

Did you really win the bet?

"The Tianji Sect is in Yunzhou... It's neither big nor small, but it's an old sect, and now it can be ranked in the middle level."

"And for a sect like this, do you know what they desire most, Brother Jiang?" Lu Chusheng asked. Without waiting for Jiang Bei to answer, he answered on his own: "They desire to return to the most prosperous era in the past! This generation is their chance!"

"That Leng Jie just now?" Jiang Bei was a little surprised.

"Not bad!" Lu Chusheng nodded immediately.

"..." Jiang Bei was silent.

Is Leng Jie just now so strong?

"Brother Jiang, look at Leng Jie...how old is he?" Lu Chusheng asked again.

He doesn't look like an adult, maybe around twenty years old.

But he also knew that the Taoist monks could not be judged simply by their appearance. Even Old Xing, who was over 130 years old, would look no different from a 30-year-old man if he tidied himself up a little.

"Forty years old?" Jiang Bei made a guess.

"hehe!"

But Lu Chusheng sneered, "Less than forty! Only thirty-three years old! Brother Jiang, now you know how terrifying Leng Jie is, right?"

Jiang Bei: “…”

He is only twenty-seven this year and doesn't think there is anything scary about him.

But he still nodded as cooperatively as possible.

“Brother Jiang…you may not have been beaten by society, so you can’t feel it.” Lu Chusheng sighed.

He also noticed the indifference in Jiang Bei's eyes.

So envious!

I am really envious!

The person in front of me must be a well-protected and talented young man from an aristocratic family, otherwise he would not be so indifferent.

Sure enough, Yunzhou is still too weak...

It seems that Brother Jiang has seen even more terrifying geniuses in the outside world, so he doesn't care about geniuses like Leng Jie.

Lu Chusheng sighed again and continued, "The current Tianji Sect is training Leng Jie at all costs, even if it means... doing something very outrageous."

Jiang Bei expressed his understanding.

But he couldn't understand why Lu Chusheng, who was also from the Tianji Sect, would tell him such a thing?

Oh yeah… Leng Jie wants to kill him, so that’s fine.

"Aren't you also the Holy Son of the Tianji Sect?" Jiang Bei asked. Two Holy Sons, shouldn't they be competing fairly?

Or even if the Lu Chusheng in front of him was the former Holy Son, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state, right?

“Uh…” Lu Chusheng was a little embarrassed.

"My father's name is Lu Sheng... Sheng means victory, so I am naturally the son of Lu Sheng, the Holy Son..."

Jiang Bei's mouth twitched.

How the hell is this possible?

"I was really helpless at the time... I hope Brother Jiang won't blame me." Lu Chusheng stood up and bowed respectfully to apologize.

"It's okay." Jiang Bei waved his hand.

Lu Chusheng sat down, looked at Jiang Bei, and after a while he looked at the roast chicken.

Jiang Bei secretly held his forehead, understood, and said helplessly: "Eat, eat..."

Lu Chusheng nodded repeatedly, then grabbed the chicken leg and started stuffing it into his mouth.

“…”

After he finished half of the roast chicken in a flash, he felt a little satisfied. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"Back then... I was also the Holy Son of the Tianji Sect." He spoke in a daze.

Jiang Bei became alert when he heard this.

You have a story!

Then he took the initiative to fill Lu Chusheng's glass.

"Brother Jiang, this... I'm so sorry, this wine is very expensive, you can drink it too." Lu Chusheng said quickly.

"It's okay. You have stories and I have wine. No one owes anyone anything." Jiang Bei said with a smile.

Lu Chusheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay! Then I will tell Brother Jiang my story!"

"Back then! I was also the Holy Son of the Tianji Sect!" he said proudly, and then drank the wine in the glass.

Then, with a miserable look on his face and his head hanging, he said, "My life is really miserable now... and I have long been a laughing stock in Yunzhou."

"I am only thirty-five now, two years younger than Leng Jie."

"Then your talent should be stronger than Leng Jie's, right?" Jiang Bei couldn't help but ask. In just two years, one is at the peak of Qi Hai Realm, and the other is at the middle stage of Hua Realm...

Two years is enough, right?

After he was released from prison, it only took him a few months to break through from the peak of Qi Hai to the current Ming Shen realm.

Of course, the foundation laid in the previous three years was indeed solid enough, which enabled us to make successive breakthroughs when we encounter "opportunities" today. Sometimes... pressure is also a thing.

Only when you fight to the death can you unleash your limits!

But this kind of pressure...can easily overwhelm people.

Just like Jiang Bei back then, he was so decadent that he gave away all his military achievements and went to prison alone... It can be said that he had lost hope of living.

"Talent..." Lu Chusheng said with a wry smile, "That's what I think..."

"But I have no background, and I don't have any powerful support, so the sect naturally chose Leng Jie over me."

When he said this, he took another gulp of wine!

Then, without waiting for Jiang Bei to ask any more questions, he told Jiang Bei everything he had experienced over the years.

It turns out... Lu Chusheng is really a miserable person.

His parents died, and he entered the Tianji Sect at a young age and became a menial disciple, leaving all the dirty work to him every day.

But he knows.

If you want to change your destiny, the only way is to practice hard!

Therefore, no matter how hard or tiring it was, he never laid down like other chores, treating it as a job in the sect...

No matter how tired he is during the day, Lu Chusheng always practices at night!

Because of this, he was often ridiculed by his fellow monks who were also menial disciples.

But, God will not let down those who work hard!

His efforts paid off. As the saying goes, things change over time, so don’t look down on the young and poor!

The great roc spreads its wings and rises with the wind, soaring up to 90,000 miles!

Such a scene happened to Lu Chusheng!

Before he was thirty years old, his Qi Sea was condensed!

He was established as the sect’s holy son of this generation!

He even has a girlfriend who is sweet-looking, capable, and talented...

However, at this moment, Leng Jie appeared.
