Shocking World War Emperor-Chapter 463: The Way to Rescue Father
Chapter 463: Chapter 463: The Way to Rescue Father
Master Lin looked at Ling Chen, unable to recover from his shock for a long time.
Had this youngster, who joined the Academic Palace only a few months ago, really reached such a terrifying level of strength?
Not only was his Cultivation Speed extremely fast, but his strength was also incomparably formidable.
He even began to wonder, could it be that the young people of today had such heaven-defying talent, that even their advancement to the Primordial Pill Realm was calculated by the month?
Previously, when he saw Ling Wu, that fellow’s Cultivation Speed was even more defying, already at the late sixth stage of the Primordial Pill Realm.
"Master Lin!"
Ling Chen spoke: "The items on his body, I’ll leave them to you."
Upon hearing Ling Chen’s voice, Master Lin was jolted awake and quickly gathered the superior Spiritual Weapon and storage ring from the assassin.
Although the two practiced combat together, the main combat power was still his.
Ling Chen was merely assisting.
"Ling Chen, have you comprehended the realm of Sword Dao?"
Master Lin asked.
As an instructor at the Academic Palace, he also knew slightly about the news regarding Sword Dao.
Ling Chen’s Spiritual Power was much weaker than theirs, yet he could contend with them. Apart from the realm of Sword Dao, he couldn’t think of any other method Ling Chen might have to close the gap in Spiritual Power!
"Yes."
Ling Chen nodded.
This was something obvious to any discerning eye.
So there was no need to hide it.
Of course, the realm of Sword Dao was profound, and specifically to what extent he had cultivated, he naturally would not say.
"Truly, each generation is stronger than the last!"
Master Lin couldn’t help but feel deeply moved.
He was an instructor at the Academic Palace, responsible for guiding students in their cultivation.
However, facing Ling Chen, he had no room for guidance at all.
Because, he himself had not even entered the realm of Sword Dao.
How could he guide Ling Chen?
"Alright, Master Lin, let’s hurry and leave! Elder Xu and the others have already departed on the Flying Divine Ship."
Ling Chen said.
He recounted the previous events.
"Ling Chen, our Academic Palace has wronged you!"
Master Lin bowed deeply to Ling Chen.
Ling Chen quickly helped Master Lin up, saying, "Master Lin, what are you doing at this time? Those two assassins clearly came for me!"
"No!"
Master Lin shook his head and said: "You are a student of our Academic Palace, we have a responsibility to protect your safety."
"I apologize, I will report this matter and from now on the Academic Palace will increase its protection for you!"
Master Lin insisted on completing the bow.
Ling Chen could only smile helplessly.
This matter was not largely related to Master Lin, it was clearly due to the Jiang Family.
"By the way, Ling Chen, how did you escape the pursuit of that superior Divine Thought Master?"
Master Lin asked.
Logically speaking, Ling Chen was definitely no match for that person.
"I encountered a mysterious powerful person, who killed the Divine Thought Master, and I escaped the calamity."
Ling Chen said.
This excuse, he had already used it while communicating with Liu Qingcang.
"Mysterious powerful person?"
Master Lin frowned and then asked, "Where did that person go?"
"He left."
Ling Chen said.
"What was that person’s name?"
Master Lin asked.
If someone helped the members of their Academic Palace, they naturally ought to express their gratitude.
"Not sure."
Ling Chen shook his head and bitterly smiled: "That person only killed the Divine Thought Master and then left, I didn’t even get a clear look at his appearance."
Master Lin asked a few more questions but didn’t get any useful information. He could only instruct, "Ling Chen, if you encounter that person in the future, be sure to thank him properly!"
"Yes, Master Lin!"
Ling Chen nodded.
"Ling Chen, have you offended anyone? Why would someone want to kill you?"
Master Lin asked.
To be able to hire an advanced mid-stage Primordial Pill Realm cultivator and a high-ranking Divine Thought Master, this scale of operation is not something ordinary forces can afford.
It’s clear that the person behind the scenes harbors a deep hatred for Ling Chen!
A chill gradually surged in Ling Chen’s eyes: "I have offended quite a few people. However, there are not many who can afford to send out such a formidable force from Moon Shadow."
"Do you have any guesses?"
Master Lin asked.
"Yes."
Ling Chen nodded, saying, "I’m almost certain."
Other than the Jiang Family, he could not think of any other force that could afford the luxury of using a high-ranking Divine Thought Master.
Even the Wei Family of the sixteen King Cities would probably not be capable of it.
"Speak!"
Master Lin said, "I cannot tolerate someone targeting a student from our Academic Palace; neither can the Palace Master, he will absolutely not put up with it!"
Ling Chen shook his head and said, "This is just my speculation. Without evidence, does Master Lin think the other side would admit it?"
Hiring an assassin to kill a student of the Academic Palace, unless there is irrefutable evidence, the Jiang Family would definitely not admit to such an act.
As for finding evidence from these two Moon Shadow Killers, it would probably be harder than ascending to the heavens. Moon Shadow is an extremely professional assassin organization.
Why would they make such a low-level mistake?
Seeing that Ling Chen was reluctant to disclose more, Master Lin understood his thoughts.
He patted Ling Chen on the shoulder and said, "Don’t worry, our academy will definitely investigate thoroughly! Try not to go out if it’s not necessary during this period."
"Okay."
Ling Chen nodded.
Then, the two of them flew off towards the south.
After an hour, they caught up with the Flying Divine Ship.
"Brother!"
Upon seeing Ling Chen, Ling Wu pouted and threw herself into his arms.
Previously, Ling Chen spoke as if he was settling his final affairs, which terrified her.
In the past, Ling Chen was always incredibly confident and calm, but he had never acted like this before.
It took quite a while to comfort Ling Wu.
Seeing Ling Chen and Master Lin return, everyone from the Academic Palace was very happy.
Ling Chen recounted the incident of being saved by the mysterious powerful figure, which cleared up everyone’s doubts.
Everyone repeatedly marveled at how lucky Ling Chen was.
The journey continued smoothly on the Flying Divine Ship without encountering any dangers.
Ling Chen stayed in his room on the ship, deep in thought.
The Jiang Family sending people to kill him, this grudge, Ling Chen must avenge.
However, if he were to declare war against the Jiang Family now, his current strength was still insufficient.
Moreover, it would likely alert Xia Jiu You.
He did not want to involve his father because of this.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Ling Chen thought of something, his eyes lighting up.
"I’m now at the mid-stage of transformation; my Divine Soul strength is completely comparable to a high-ranking Divine Thought Master. If I use Divine Soul Telekinesis to control a member of the Ghost King Guard and enter the Ghost Palace to find some traces of my father, that should be feasible, right?"
Ling Chen thought to himself.
Moreover, he happens to know a member of the Ghost King Guard.
That person is Zhang Yan.
Additionally, Zhang Yan has shown a willingness to form a good relationship with him.
If he controlled Zhang Yan to take a trip into the Ghost Palace within the Palace, there should be no problem.
"This method should be feasible."
Ling Chen began to plan in detail.
"The key issue here is whether Xia Jiu You would keep my father imprisoned in the Ghost Palace?"
Ling Chen encountered another problem.
Based on the current situation, it seemed that Xia Jiu You had taken the Sacred Body from his father.
Such a high-profile criminal, would Xia Jiu You possibly assign a special guard for him?
Furthermore, whether a member of the Ghost King Guard could access such top-secret information.
