Leng Yanran dared not think further and could only convince herself forcibly that the hall must have some special formation to possess such power. Otherwise, she couldn’t fathom why such a terrifying existence would take her as a disciple.
“It’s alright. Keep this jade pendant safe. From now on, you can freely observe the Heavenly Dao plaque. It contains the essence of the Great Dao. If you can comprehend even a little, it would be a significant opportunity for you.”
Chen Daoxuan waved his hand slightly, showing no blame towards her. Then, he conjured a jade pendant, carved with the character “Leng,” clearly prepared specifically for Leng Yanran.
With this jade pendant, she could move freely within the divine temple without any danger.
“Thank you, Master!”
Leng Yanran bowed deeply, intending to take the jade pendant in her hands.
Chen Daoxuan was slightly taken aback. In his view, there was no need for such formalities and burdensome etiquette between a master and disciple. He then casually conjured a string and didn’t place the jade pendant in her hands, but instead gently put it around her fair neck.
“Between you and me as master and disciple, there’s no need for excessive formalities. I’ve put the jade pendant on you. Go to the main hall and choose a room you like. First, clean yourself up.”
Chen Daoxuan spoke softly and then turned to leave.
“Thank you… Master!”
Feeling her master’s long and slender fingers inadvertently touch her neck, Leng Yanran blushed instantly. She stammered a thank you and quickly turned to enter the main hall.
Although she had been admired and pursued by countless geniuses and even senior experts over the years, she had never had any intimate contact with a man before.
Once inside the main hall, Leng Yanran chose a nearby side hall. She found that it was fully equipped with various facilities, including a wooden tub filled with steamy hot water, which had just been prepared for her.
“Master even prepared all these for me…”
Leng Yanran lightly bit her cherry lips as her eyes shimmered with delight. However, the sticky feeling on her body made her very uncomfortable. She didn’t waste any time and immediately discarded the dress that was stained with blood, proceeding to take a bath.
After several days of non-stop pursuit, Leng Yanran was already mentally exhausted. Feeling the warmth enveloping her body, she couldn’t help but drift into a deep slumber.
Outside the main hall, Chen Daoxuan focused on studying his own system.
After accepting Leng Yanran as his disciple, the range of his unbeatable divine temple had increased from the previous five kilometers to the current fifty kilometers. Although it was a tenfold increase, its usefulness was limited within the Illusory Void Mountain Range, where savage beasts roamed, and encounters with other cultivators were rare.
However, he remained undaunted. As long as he persisted, there would come a day when his range could envelop the heavens. Perhaps even before that day arrived, he might no longer need to rely on the invincibility of the divine temple!
During Leng Yanran’s breakthrough just now, he had received a new reward from the system. At that time, he didn’t have the chance to read it carefully before her.
[Ding, under the host’s tutelage, the senior disciple Leng Yanran has comprehended the first volume of the Chaos Heavenly Demon Scripture, broke through to the Profound Realm. Rewards: 150 years of cultivation, 150 points, complete mastery of the Chaos Heavenly Demon Scripture.]
Seeing this message, Chen Daoxuan couldn’t help but feel excited. He had been worrying about finding a suitable cultivation technique for himself, but it seemed that it was unnecessary now. As long as his disciples cultivated, he, as their master, only needed to lie down… no, I mean, take good care of his disciples!
