After a deep conversation with Xiao Chen, the old lady didn't want to go for lunch anymore.
She really wanted to go into seclusion immediately and strive for the seventh level.
However, thinking that Xiao Chen was a guest, and that "fate is in the hands of man", she decided to finish lunch before going into seclusion.
During the lunch, Chu Xifan and others clearly discovered that the old lady's attitude towards Xiao Chen had changed compared to before.
You can tell from the name.
They stopped calling him "Patriarch Xiao" and started calling him by his name.
In addition, the deep appreciation was not concealed at all.
Not to mention the younger generation of the Chu family, even Chu Fan had never seen the old lady admire someone so much.
Even Chuchu, her favorite, had never been like this.
She admired Chu Chu, but she loved her more.
As for Xiao Chen, he didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he felt that in addition to admiration, he also seemed to be a little... grateful?
"What's going on?"
Chu Fan found an opportunity and asked Chu Chu in a low voice.
“There is no order of learning, the one who achieves first comes first.”
Chuchu said softly.
“…”
Hearing this, Chu Fan's eyes widened.
There is no order of learning, only those who achieve success come first?
This means that the old lady thinks that Xiao Chen can be her teacher in the field of ancient martial arts?
This is too horrible!
Is Xiao Chen... really that powerful?
I can’t imagine it!
In fact, not only Chu Xifan found it hard to imagine, even Chu Chu, who had been accompanying him, was also very uneasy.
At this moment, the old lady's behavior has become much more normal.
When the two of them were communicating just now, the old lady's attitude changed, just like a student.
This is not an exchange or discussion, it is clearly asking for advice!
And the way Xiao Chen talked eloquently also made her eyes sparkle. This man... is so charming!
"Once you meet Yang Guo, your life will be ruined... I hope this is not the case."
Chu Chu talked to herself and sighed softly.
"Come on, Xiao Chen, I'll toast you a glass."
The old lady picked up the wine glass and said seriously.
"How dare I..."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"No, you deserve this glass of wine..."
The old lady shook her head and became more serious.
Seeing this scene, even those who reacted a little slower would notice something and be shocked.
Looking around Longcheng, let alone Longcheng, even in the [Dragon Emperor] or even China, there are not many people who can be treated like this by the old lady, right?
Even Dragon Lord Long Zhuifeng is not qualified!
They have not forgotten the scene when Long Zhuifeng visited the old lady after returning to Longcheng.
It was also at this table that day that Long Zhuifeng respectfully toasted the old lady with a glass of wine, instead of the old lady toasting him!
Chu Fan hesitated and did not raise his glass. This was the old lady's toast to Xiao Chen. If anyone else wanted to drink with him... they were not worthy!
"Okay, old lady, I'll drink first as a sign of respect."
Xiao Chen smiled, clinked glasses with the old lady, and drank the wine.
After the old lady put down her cup, Chu Fan and others toasted Xiao Chen one by one.
The lunch lasted for more than an hour.
"Old lady, I won't bother you any more..."
Xiao Chen did not stay long, as he knew that the old lady might be going into seclusion.
"Okay, Xiao Chen, I hope I can come and see you off when you leave."
The old lady said this and looked at Chuchu again.
"If you can't come, Chuchu will be left to you."
"Haha, okay."
Xiao Chen agreed with a smile.
Afterwards, Xiao Chen left and the old lady personally sent him to the door.
The old lady didn't look away until Xiao Chen disappeared from her sight.
"Chu Chu, come with me... Fan, I'm going to retreat. You will take care of all the things at home."
The old lady explained.
"Old Lady, are you... trying to reach the seventh level?"
Chu Fan was excited and couldn't help asking.
Hearing Chu Xifan's words, everyone in the Chu family was stunned, and then they all looked at the old lady with excitement.
"Well, let's try."
The old lady nodded.
"Don't spread the news yet."
"clear!"
Chu Xifan and others nodded quickly.
"Chu Chu, come with me..."
After the old lady finished speaking, she turned and walked inside.
Chu Chu hurriedly followed, she vaguely felt that... there was hope for the old lady to reach the seventh level.
Chu Xifan and others behind them were all very excited and discussed in low voices.
"Master, is the old lady really at the seventh level?"
"Well, that's about right. Xiao Chen really came to the right place this time."
"Why, the old lady, the seventh level of heaven, is related to Xiao Chen?"
"Of course, otherwise why would the old lady have that attitude? It's not just admiration, it's gratitude."
“…”
Everyone in the Chu family was very excited. The old lady had entered the seventh heaven. Her vitality had greatly increased and her lifespan had been extended.
This is a great joy for the Chu family!
Chuchu followed the old lady to the place of retreat, and was a little curious about what she was called to do.
"Girl, let me ask you again, do you like Xiao Chen?"
The old lady looked at Chuchu and asked.
"ah?"
Chu Chu was stunned for a moment. Why did he ask again?
"Xiao Chen is an unrivalled genius. No one in the younger generation can match him. No one is better than him..."
The old lady held Chuchu's hand.
"If you like him, then be brave and seize the opportunity... If you don't like him, try to like him. After you get out, cultivate your relationship with Xiao Chen. Even if you don't fall in love at first sight, you can still fall in love with him over time."
"???"
Chuchu was stunned. Did she try hard to like him? Did she fall in love with him over time?
The old lady’s attitude before was not like this!
"Alas, I promised you that I would not interfere in your life affairs, but you are my most beloved junior, and I also hope that you can be happy."
The old lady sighed.
"Xiao Chen is too good, so good that even I...if I were your age, I would definitely fall in love with him."
“…”
Chu Chu was even more stunned.
"Of course, I'm just making an analogy... Think about it carefully. I have my own selfish motives, but I also hope that you can be happy."
The old lady said this and patted Chuchu's hand.
"If you don't meet such an excellent person, forget it. But if you do meet him...it's either fate or disaster."
"Will meeting Yang Guo ruin your life?"
Chuchu murmured.
"What's the meaning?"
The old lady was stunned for a moment.
"Well, Yang Guo is the protagonist in the novel..."
Chuchu gave a brief introduction.
"That's true. When you meet someone who is too outstanding, you will never like anyone else."
The old lady nodded, with a hint of sigh and emotion.
"Once you meet Yang Guo, your life will be ruined. Looking back, a hundred years have passed... I hope you don't become Guo Xiang, do you understand?"
"Old lady, I understand."
Chuchu nodded.
"Well, you have been smart since you were young. Although you are quiet, you have your own ideas... Whether it is fate or disaster, it all depends on you."
The old lady said slowly.
"In my life, I don't believe in 'everything is predetermined by heaven', but 'my destiny is determined by myself, not by heaven'. The same is true for fate. It's up to man to decide, and fate is up to man to decide!"
"It's up to us... Old lady, I understand."
Chu Chu looked at the old lady and nodded.
"Haha, okay, I'm going to retreat now. I hope I can come out before you leave..."
The old lady smiled.
"You go ahead."
"Yes, old lady."
Chuchu responded.
"Old lady, you can definitely reach the seventh level."
"Haha, okay."
The old lady smiled and nodded.
…
Xiao Chen left the Chu family and was walking back when someone came towards him.
"Master Xiao, Lord Dragon invites you to come over."
The visitor said respectfully.
"Um?"
Xiao Chen was surprised. No way, Old Long knew about it just after he left the Chu family?
It seems that Old Long has a lot of eyes and ears in Dragon City.
"Well, how does the Dragon Lord feel right now?"
Xiao Chen thought about it and asked.
"Mood? Not sure."
The visitor was startled and shook his head.
"Okay, let's go."
As Xiao Chen walked, he wondered in his heart, why was Old Long calling him to do this?
Ask what they talked about at the Chu family?
Or... has the poaching been exposed?
He subconsciously wanted to take out his cell phone and call Zhao Lao Mo and the others to ask, but then he remembered... there was no signal.
"It's really inconvenient."
Xiao Chen cursed inwardly and looked at the person who came.
"I want to go back first, and then go see the Dragon Lord..."
"Master Xiao, Lord Dragon has already told you to go directly there."
The visitor said hurriedly.
“…”
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. Go straight over there?
Maybe the poaching has been exposed!
Otherwise, why wouldn't you let me go back?
"All right."
Xiao Chen nodded and gave up the idea of going back.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Chen arrived at the side hall of the Dragon Soul Hall.
"Master Xiao, please...Master Long has told me that when you come, you can just go in directly."
The man said.
"He confessed again? What else did he confess?"
Xiao Chen was speechless and asked.
“No more.”
The man shook his head.
"All right."
Xiao Chen nodded, took a deep breath, and strode inside.
Do whatever you want!
Whether it's a storm or not, you'll have to face it sooner or later!
Let the storm come even more violently.
Xiao Chen looked dignified and ready to sacrifice himself.
However, as soon as he entered the side hall and saw Elder Long sitting at the top, the expression on his face changed suddenly.
He smiled and said, "Mr. Long, I'm back."
"Um."
Elder Long looked at Xiao Chen with an expressionless face and responded.
When Xiao Chen saw Long Lao's reaction, his heart skipped a beat. This reaction didn't seem right. It seemed that his true intention was exposed.
"sit."
Mr. Long said one more sentence.
"Okay."
Xiao Chen nodded and sat down.
"Mr. Long, you are really amazing. You knew everything just after I came out of the Chu family? There is really nothing in Longcheng that can be hidden from you."
"Oh……"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Old Long smiled.
"Since you know this, why do you still dare to cause trouble?"
"Making trouble? Mr. Long, what do you mean?"
Xiao Chen twitched the corners of his mouth, but still wanted to struggle.
"I... didn't quite understand."
"Didn't you understand? Humph, I think you are pretending to be confused even though you know the truth!"
Long Lao glared.
"How dare you! You've already started poaching the Dragon King's people before you even leave Dragon City?"
"Well, if we leave, it won't be very convenient to dig again. We are so far away, right?"
Xiao Chen was helpless, it was really like this.
However, he also realized that Mr. Long was not really angry.
This matter... can be discussed!
"What?"
Old Long glared at Xiao Chen. Are you still finding it troublesome?
This kid, is he speaking human language?
