Chapter 214 Senior Apprentice Sister (2/2)

He was the legendary Shen Zhenren.

Every cultivator present too wondered how the new chief of Qing Xuan was like, but as they saw how he commanded the Mystical Whale as his mount, and how he could walk in the midst of nothing, they knew he was the real deal.

Furthermore, rumors had it that Shen Zhenren was not even a hundred years old. To reach such height at such age, there was none that could have done the same even since ancient times. Chen Jianmei could be said to have achieved such height, but since both of them were from Qing Xuan, it seemed that Qing Xuan was now on the rise.

If they knew Shen Lian was not even fifty, they would have their opinion changed.

After the greetings of Gu Caiwei, the other cultivators all bowed down.

The prestige of the chief of Qing Xuan was beyond description.

In addition, as Shen Lian set up affiliates of Qing Xuan with the intention to gather talents, it had indeed helped a lot of non-formal cultivators.

Shen Lian walked to the front of Gu Caiwei at last. He held her hand and said, ”Senior Apprentice-Sister, it has been hard for you.”

He could only say this line despite the thousands of thoughts he had, but it did reveal his emotions. Gu Caiwei had helped him a lot when he first became the chief and when there was a turbulent time at Qing Xuan.

They were both from the same lineage, and Gu Caiwei had been his teacher. The best he could do was to use his actions to show how grateful he was to her.

When the hands touched, Gu Caiwei first felt his immense mana, which she was not able to tell the extent of the depth of it. It had only been five years, and Gu Caiwei realized he had reached an even greater height. As he got further ahead, she felt happy, but at the same time, she felt a bit lost.

In the end, she said nothing but one could see the smile on her brows.

Shen Lian nodded, and his eyes glanced through all the cultivators and said, ”My friends, there is no need for this courtesy.”

They were not under Qing Xuan, which was why he called them his friends.

To him, being the chief of Qing Xuan was a responsibility that he had. He needed no to show authority. Even Buddha treated all beings to be equal, there was no reason why he should not.

Shen Lian was not going to be too courteous. After speaking a few lines, he brought Gu Caiwei into the hall. It was fortunate that the Mystical Whale was rare and was under the restriction of Shen Lian, and hence it did not take in too much Qi of vitality to disturb the spiritual vigority of this area.

When the cultivators saw Shen Lian and the Hall Establisher left, they were stared curiously at the Mystical Whale and Zuo Shaoqing.

Some of them were thinking Zuo Shaoqing was Shen Lian's students and they were thinking if there was an opportunity for them to fawn over him.

A lot of cultivators were gathering around Qing Hongzi to understand more about Shen Zhenren.

When Shen Lian and Gu Caiwei were in a room, Gu Caiwei pulled her hand out from Shen Lian's grip. She looked a bit awkward as she had not come in touch with any opposite gender for a long time. At the same time, she knew Shen Lian did not do it intentionally.
