"You guys go in first, I'll go downstairs and take a look!"
To prevent the Dragon Blood Legion from being exposed, Long Chen had Guo Ran directly pilot the flying boat into the inner courtyard. This privilege was currently reserved only for Long Chen.
As the flying boat flew past, it immediately drew everyone's attention. As Long Chen stepped down, countless powerful figures immediately surrounded him.
"Dean Long Chen, so you're not in the academy!"
"Is there something you need from me?"
Long Chen looked at these people and found that they were all newly promoted Saint King experts, many of whom were Destiny practitioners. However, their Destiny power was not strong, only about five or six stars.
These people looked a bit anxious. Before coming down, they even heard people making a big commotion, leaving Long Chen somewhat puzzled.
"Dean Long Chen, now the major powers within Emperor Heaven have begun to recruit talent on a large scale, offering many generous terms and making all kinds of promises.
But we still feel uneasy, so we want to ask you if you can give us some advice. In this world, you are the one we trust most. A young man said earnestly.
Long Chen noticed that although this young man's face still showed youthful innocence, he was already a bona fide five-star Destiny Holder.
"A genius like you shouldn't be refused by any major power, so why do you feel uneasy?" Long Chen asked.
Hearing Long Chen's praise, the man shyly said, "Dean Long Chen, you must be joking. Who in front of you would dare call themselves a genius?" "
When the man said this, countless people burst into laughter. But what he said was indeed true. Although no one knew about Long Chen's battle at the Gate of Nine Heavens, the Life-Hunting Clan ambushed the academy, and Long Chen personally slayed the Nine-Star Destiny Warrior—countless people witnessed it firsthand.
That was the Nine-Star Destiny Warrior of the Fate Hunter clan, the most terrifying assassin. Most importantly, such a terrifying assassin had no chance to resist before Long Chen and was killed.
When this news broke, countless people were shocked. Many had thought that when the Nine-Star Destiny Person appeared, Long Chen's brilliance might be overshadowed.
Even without being concealed, Long Chen would pale in comparison to the powerful Nine-Star Destiny Warriors. But people realized that in front of Long Chen, these Nine-Star Destiny Beings were like fireflies competing with the bright moon—the gap was simply too great.
For a time, more and more people admired Long Chen even more. So now, when it comes to geniuses, everyone laughs. In front of Long Chen, no one dares to call himself that title.
After laughing, the young disciple said, "Dean Long Chen is like this: the major forces within Emperor Heaven are crazily recruiting, but our Qingyun Sect on Qingyun Mountain is at best considered a second-rate force."
But every day, all kinds of powerful figures from Emperor Heaven come to visit, and even Saint-level experts come in person. You have to understand, our sect leader is only at the beginning of immortality... "
Through the disciple's account, Long Chen understood that Qingyun Sect, a second-rate power, was also favored by countless powerful figures, so those first-rate powers were even more likely to have their thresholds leveled.
According to his description, among the disciples of Qingyun Sect, there are more than seventy Destiny Seekers, but only he is the most gifted, yet he has been invited by countless factions.
These visitors were powerful and brought disciples, who were even more terrifying—some even eight-star Destiny Cultivators. Their arrival was overwhelming and overwhelming.
But these people were extremely polite—not only did they bring generous gifts, but their speech and manners were all very humble, leaving everyone completely baffled.
Faced with their promises and invitations, these people felt as if they were in a dream. However, many factions had weathered many storms and rarely agreed openly; they were still watching and waiting.
As more and more forces arrived, their eyes blurred. Faced with so many invitations, they didn't know how to make a decision.
They knew this was a tremendous opportunity for them. If they chose correctly, their future would be limitless; if they chose wrongly, their lives would be wasted.
At this moment, news spread that Long Chen had easily slain the Destiny Holder. Countless factions slapped their thighs, wondering how they had forgotten about Lingxiao Academy.
Long Chen could be considered the strongest local expert in their understanding. Many people wanted to see Lingxiao Academy's attitude and hoped Long Chen could give a good suggestion. After all, Lingxiao Academy's reputation and his character were absolutely trustworthy.
"Join them, and you still have to sign a soul contract? That's a bit much—how is this any different from signing a slave contract? Long Chen was taken aback when he heard this news.
"Yes, that's what we think too. Their reason is that in the future, they'll spend countless resources and money to train us, and they need a guarantee—if we train well, we run away, and they'll end up with nothing left." At that moment, a female disciple forced her way over, excitedly saying.
Long Chen looked at the woman and found she was quite brave. She squeezed and rubbed against a group of men, not afraid of losing out, and finally met this legendary figure, even able to converse face-to-face. This made her extremely excited.
Long Chen nodded and said, "What they say is true, but the key is, what if they get tricked?" They say how great the Emperor Heaven is, how powerful their own power is, but the key is, no one can see it! "
Exactly, that's exactly the principle. That's why we're afraid too. Those who are related by blood, they don't care, but we can't. If we go, we might be treated as inferior people." Some people said this, but obviously, everyone was worried about this issue.
"Let me be blunt, everyone, don't be angry. If they were really strong, it seems they wouldn't be so humble coming to you. This is a lot of deception." Long Chen apologized first, then said.
Everyone was stunned. This remark was indeed a bit painful, but it seemed to be true. If the opponent was strong enough, they should at least fool someone as powerful as Long Chen.
"Dean Long Chen, the whole world is in chaos now. Seeing so many people find a place to belong makes us anxious ourselves.
But we were afraid of being misled, so we came over to see if the director could give us some guidance on what we should do. A disciple said.
"Actually, none of you need to rush. You can wait until the Emperor Heaven opens." Long Chen said.
"But the fear is that by then, all the major powers' quotas will be full, and no one will want us anymore. They say their recruitment spots are limited." The woman said anxiously.
Long Chen laughed heartily and said, "Hahaha, don't listen to their nonsense. The situation in Emperor Heaven is actually not optimistic, so they urgently need to strengthen themselves. That's exactly why they respect the virtuous and humble."
You should wait patiently for the Emperor Heaven to open. Let me reassure you first—Lingxiao Academy has its own place in the Emperor Heaven.
If you can't find a place to stay in Emperor Heaven, feel free to come to my Lingxiao Academy to rest at any time. Once you find a better place, then make your choice. "
Really?" Dean Long Chen, you're truly wonderful! Hearing Long Chen's words, the powerful figures present were greatly encouraged. Long Chen's promise completely relieved them of any worries.
"Dean Long Chen, you're so handsome." Everyone cheered.
"Director Long Chen, I want to have your child."
The woman standing in front of Long Chen was furious: "How can a woman say such shameless things? Can't she have some shame ...?"
Then she added, "Is there any order that comes first, first?" Didn't you see I was the first to be in line? Long
Chen felt a chill run down his spine. Women these days were too fierce. Long Chen left as if fleeing, and the gathered experts at the academy entrance also dispersed with a thunderous roar.
What Long Chen didn't know was that his promise had instantly offended countless factions, and just the day after Long Chen made the promise, someone came looking for him with overwhelming momentum.
