Perfected Lord Tianlan watched as Lu Chen walked in. He did not say anything, nor did he say anything. He just sat quietly on the lotus throne. He wasn't sitting in an upright and dignified manner. Instead, he was sitting in a very casual and comfortable manner.
He even put one hand on his knee and supported his chin with his palm. He looked at Lu Chen with a glimmer in his eyes, as if he was hiding some complicated emotions. Lu Chen could not understand what this person was thinking. He only felt that the damn baldy today seemed to be a little different from usual.
Was it because of what happened in the underground cavern?
He walked to the lotus throne and stopped. Just as he was thinking about how to ask, he heard Perfected Lord Tianlan's voice coming from the high lotus throne. "Do you have something to say to me?"
Lu Chen looked up at the throne uncomfortably. Usually, when they met or were alone, Perfected Lord Tianlan was very close and kind to him. He almost never sat on the high lotus throne to talk to him. He would either stand with him or casually sit on the ground.
But this time, with the high lotus throne between them, it was as if there was a chasm between the two of them. They became a little estranged.
Lu Chen did not know if Perfected Lord Tianlan did this on purpose or if he was just sitting casually and did not think too much. But this way of speaking still made him feel a little depressed and unhappy.
However, when this thought flashed through his mind, Lu Chen was suddenly shocked. At that moment, he suddenly reflected on himself.
Given Perfected Lord Tianlan's current power, status, and supreme reputation, he could actually sit on the lotus throne in front of most people in the world. Everyone would also think that it was only right. But why, why did he feel that it was unfair?
It was because for a long time, he had unknowingly gotten used to Perfected Lord Tianlan's special treatment of him. Unknowingly, he had already taken Perfected Lord Tianlan's special treatment for granted.
However, if some things were seen through, a cold, naked truth would still be revealed from his dazzling appearance. Up until now, everything Lu Chen had, status, power, wealth, and so on, was actually all because of this man he called 'Damn Baldy'.
Without Perfected Lord Tianlan, who would acknowledge a shadow like him?
Xue Ying? Or Fuyunji's arrogant soldiers and valiant generals?
He had always prided himself on being calm, but he had unknowingly stepped on the edge of a cliff.
Lu Chen stood there quietly. Under his clothes, he was covered in cold sweat.
...
Perfected Lord Tianlan was still sitting on the throne on the high platform. He rested his chin on his hand and stared at Lu Chen. There was no anger or anger on his face, but there seemed to be a playful look in his eyes.
Perfected Lord Tianlan seemed to have a unique patience for this disciple of his, which was different from others.
But in the depths of his eyes, who would know what he was thinking?
Would lightning suddenly descend from the sky?
Under his gaze, Lu Chen seemed to be in a trance for a moment when he walked into the hall and stood under the lotus throne, but he soon recovered. He first looked up at Perfected Lord Tianlan and then asked, "Are you all right?"
"Me?" Perfected Lord Tianlan didn't seem to expect that Lu Chen would ask such a question, so he was stunned for a moment. Then, he shook his head and laughed. "What could happen to me?"
Lu Chen said, "No matter what, you're going there with me. Later, you asked me to call someone. After I left, I didn't know what happened in the underground city. I only saw the scene of you rising at the end. So, I thought that regardless of whether you want to tell me what happened or not, I still have to come and ask if you're all right. "
Perfected Lord Tianlan raised his eyebrows and was a little surprised, so much so that he fell silent for a moment. Then, his body moved slightly and his unusually tall and burly body suddenly disappeared from the lotus throne. In the next moment, he appeared on the ground like a ghost, standing not far from Lu Chen.
Lu Chen looked up at him with a calm expression. However, his hands subconsciously clenched a little tighter under his sleeves.
Perfected Lord Tianlan stared at Lu Chen for a moment and said with a smile, "I almost thought that I heard wrongly just now. It seems like you're actually showing concern for me? I've never seen you like this before. What's wrong with you today? "
Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "No matter what, I've bowed to you and acknowledged you as my master. You were the one who raised me since I was young. So, after thinking about it these days, I feel that I should be more respectful to you. "
"Ha!" Perfected Lord Tianlan seemed to be especially surprised and could not help but laugh. His eyes flickered as he said to Lu Chen with a smile, "I'm surprised that you would think that way. I thought that you would only call me a damn baldy in your heart and still have some resentment towards me."
Lu Chen fell silent and did not say anything.
Perfected Lord Tianlan chuckled. When he realized that he did not get a response from Lu Chen, his expression changed slightly and he quietened down as well. The surrounding atmosphere instantly turned from relaxed to somewhat solemn. He frowned and looked at Lu Chen with some changes in his expression. There seemed to be some joy and some fear.
After a while, Lu Chen said slowly, "After the Battle of the Barren Valley, I stayed in Qingshuitang Village for ten years. I suffered a lot during that time. I'm sure you know how I was, right?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan replied with a "hmm" and placed his hands behind his back. He looked at Lu Chen and waited for him to continue.
Lu Chen did not make him wait for too long and said with an extremely calm expression, "Those years were torturous for me and I was hovering between life and death every day. Since I didn't see you coming over, I naturally had some resentment towards you. It's just that after so many years, I gradually understood why you had no choice back then … "
At this point, he suddenly frowned and stopped talking as a look of displeasure flashed across his face.
Perfected Lord Tianlan was listening attentively. He could not help but feel a little surprised when he suddenly stopped and even had a change in expression. "What else? Why did you stop?"
However, Lu Chen seemed to be a little annoyed all of a sudden and turned hostile. No, he rolled his eyes and said angrily while waving his hand, "Say my a * s! I'm not going to say anymore! This is the kind of person I am. You can do whatever you want. In any case, you can do whatever you want. Are you alright? If not, I'm leaving. "
After being contradicted by Lu Chen, Perfected Lord Tianlan did not know why but when he looked at Lu Chen's expression, his gaze softened a little as if he recalled the feeling of holding the small hand of the child whom he had just taken away from him many years ago.
He smiled as if the entire world had become gentle at this moment. He nodded and was not at all offended by Lu Chen's somewhat angry expression. He said with a smile, "I'm fine, I'm fine."
He walked over and patted Lu Chen's shoulder. He said with a smile, "Actually, I just did a small thing down there. I just killed a person. It's not worth mentioning."
Lu Chen's body shook and he said in astonishment, "Killed someone? There's actually someone else in the city down there? Who is it? "
Perfected Lord Tianlan said indifferently, "The remnant of the Devil Cult called Elder Ghost."
As he spoke, he waved his hand as if he was shaking off an annoying dust and did not care at all. Then, he gently put his hand on Lu Chen's shoulder and walked out with his arm around him. At the same time, he said, "Why do you sound a little surprised about this?"
