Chapter 2428: Chapter 2429: Taking a Master

"Get up first."

After that person finished everything, he still did not stand up from the ground. Instead, he tilted his head slightly, sizing up Lin Chen.

Although, in Lu Han’s recent address, there had been some changes, in reality, this could only be considered his wishful thinking. Without Lin Chen’s agreement, it would naturally be meaningless.

However, he already had a plan in his mind. If Lin Chen did not agree, he would kneel until Lin Chen agreed.

He thought to himself.

Of course, it was not surprising that he thought this way, as the rumors concerning Lin Chen in the Green Ripple Sect were indeed numerous.

Even the disciples who had just entered the Green Ripple Sect had heard of them.

"Do you know who Lin Chen is?"

When they arrived, those senior brothers would ask in this manner.

Then, upon seeing their curious eyes, they would proudly recount all that Lin Chen had done in the Green Ripple Sect.

Such as his exceptional combat power, battling dozens of Azure Dragon members alone and emerging unscathed, or how the sect valued him greatly—these stories, when spoken from their mouths, naturally had exaggerated elements.

Their proud tone was as if they themselves were Lin Chen.

It was precisely because of this that Lu Han greatly admired Lin Chen, and at that time, clenched his fist, either to surpass Lin Chen or, failing that, to become Lin Chen’s disciple.

The so-called cultivator is indeed this fervent.

Previously, Lu Han had momentarily forgotten everything upon seeing Lin Chen, due to being mistakenly wounded by him.

But as he calmed his mind, he recalled it all, leading to the current situation.

Lin Chen sighed lightly; he did not know what Lu Han was thinking, thus felt a headache coming on—who behaves like this, fighting first, and then immediately seeking apprenticeship?

Such speed left Lin Chen bewildered.

"Master, please agree."

Lu Han stared at Lin Chen with eyes full of hope.

In his wide-open pupils, directed at Lin Chen, there was an intimidating look—as if others would think Lu Han was up to something.

"We don’t know each other, isn’t this rather rash... Besides, I can’t teach you..."

Lin Chen shook his head and said.

What he said was true, even though Lin Chen had several battles that unleashed terrifying power, part of this power originated from a mysterious force within him, which was hard to understand even for himself.

Let alone teaching others?

The sacred object of the demon sect within him, along with the sinister energy—these were not things he could pass on.

Regarding sword techniques, Wang Hao was in the sect, and without his permission, Lin Chen couldn’t easily teach this powerful sword technique.

The Cultivation Technique was even less likely; he couldn’t persuade this person to first abandon his current path and start anew, or he’d be seen as mad.

In this way, Lin Chen truly wasn’t ready to be a mentor.

"How could you say that, Master? Everyone in the Green Ripple Sect knows your name, and just that previous attack is enough to be a mentor."

Lu Han pointed not far away, now realizing the terrifying force within Lin Chen’s attack before Lu Han arrived.

Not far away, ancient trees appeared withered, their vitality long gone.

In just a short time, such a change occurred, demonstrating its amazing power.

At the same time, Lu Han felt a hint of surprise—if Lin Chen had used this attack earlier, he would have been dead.

Furthermore, he heard people say that Lin Chen was skilled with a sword, not one to fight barehanded. Earlier, Lu Han hadn’t seen his sword.

Even so, he defeated him without resistance, imagining the scene if Lin Chen used his weapon.

Thus, Lu Han admired Lin Chen even more.

"You’re quite stubborn..."

Lin Chen sighed deeply, looking at Lu Han, who appeared only seventeen or eighteen, but his determination was revealing.

He knelt upright, gazing at Lin Chen, his eyes roaming Lin Chen’s face, full of expectation.

This demeanor prevented Lin Chen from leaving promptly.

After all, Lin Chen sensed the person wasn’t bad. Though seemingly single-minded, he wasn’t of ill intent, which Lin Chen noticed, thus he hesitated to leave despite his frustrations.

If Lin Chen left now, Lu Han would likely suffer a significant blow, making Lin Chen feel guilty.

Partly because Lin Chen had inadvertently hurt him, and partly because Lin Chen had some liking towards him.

"My skills are all taught by someone else, so how about I take you to see him directly..."

Lin Chen suddenly thought of Wang Hao in the library; since he couldn’t easily impart this skill himself, perhaps he could bring Lu Han to meet Wang Hao, hoping Wang Hao might accept him.

After all, Lu Han’s exhibited strength wasn’t weak.

At least, if unsuccessful, Lin Chen would have tried his best, leaving Lu Han with little to say. Isn’t this an ideal solution?

"Master must be joking..."

Lu Han frowned, having heard of Lin Chen’s legend everywhere since joining the sect; thus naturally wanted Lin Chen as his master, not considering others.

"How could I deceive you? If you’re unsatisfied, you can leave later!" Lin Chen, with a hint of frustration, glared at Lu Han.

Remember, the hardships Lin Chen endured to learn Wang Hao’s sword techniques. Yet Lu Han seemed to suspect deception.

Though Lu Han didn’t know Wang Hao’s strength, Lin Chen, frustrated, glared at him again before stepping forward, the intention of leaving evident in his demeanor.

In a brief moment, Lin Chen moved several meters ahead.

Seeing Lin Chen’s actions, Lu Han, initially hesitant, bit his lip and stood up, following Lin Chen’s steps.

"If you’re not satisfied, there’ll always be time to think of something else," Lu Han comforted himself, and his initially tense mood slightly eased with such thoughts.
