Chapter 368: Chapter 368

Chen Lifeng looked at Xiao Jinting and said, “You have to know that the cultivators in this world would do anything to make their advancement. In the past conferences in Great Continent, some Nascent Souls got killed on the way.”

Xiao Jinting widened his eyes and said, “Someone ambushed Nascent Souls?”

Chen Lifeng nodded and said, “What’s so strange about it? To improve their cultivation, many people can do anything. Every Deity Transformation cultivator makes his advancement at the cost of many people’s lives.”

“Mr. Chen, you are right. The one who killed the Nascent Souls must be very powerful.”

Chen Lifeng nodded and said, “Of course. The one who kills the Nascent Souls is generally a Nascent Soul.”

Xiao Jinting fell silent.

A group of hawks flew over, and the leader of it was imposing and powerful.

“Well, the hawks belong to some Golden Cores at the advanced level.”

Xiao Jinting saw three cultivators riding on the hawks and flying towards Chen Lifeng.

A man attired in a robe with hawk patterns put away the hawks and approached Chen Lifeng.

“Mr. Chen, long time no see!”

“Immortal Flying Hawk, you look great.”

Immortal Flying Hawk smiled and said, “How can I compare to you, Mr. Chen? I heard that your grandson has come back with a great-grandson…”

Xiao Jinting was speechless. Was Immortal Flying Hawk mocking or complimenting?

“This is?” Immortal Flying Hawk looked at Xiao Jinting.

Xiao Jinting quickly bowed to him.

“This is the father of my grandson-in-law, the First Elder of Green Cloud Immortal Sect,” Chen Lifeng said lightly.

Chen Lifeng thought highly of Xiao Jinting, who in his eyes made it to the advanced level of Golden Core at such a young age and would advance to Nascent Soul sooner or later. If Xiao Jinting was able to advance to Nascent Soul, Chen Xu would have one more strong support.

Immortal Flying Hawk looked at Xiao Jinting and smiled, “So you are the First Elder of Green Cloud Immortal Sect. As expected, you are talented and young.”

Xiao Jinting smiled and said, “Senior, I’m flattered.”

Xiao Jinting could tell that his position as the first elder of the Green Cloud Immortal Sect was not valued by Immortal Flying Hawk, who complimented him only because of Chen Lifeng.

“Mr. Chen, I heard that your arm…” Immortal Flying Hawk looked at Chen Lifeng’s arm. “Your arm…is healed.”

Chen Lifeng moved his wrist and said, “A few days ago, I was lucky to get a pill, so I recovered.”

“Congratulations, Mr. Chen. Since you’ve recovered from your injuries, we’ll be safer on the journey,” said Immortal Flying Hawk.

“With your hawks, no one could defeat us. I will count on you along the way,” Chen Lifeng flattered.

Immortal Flying Hawk smiled dryly and said, “Mr. Chen, everyone knows that you could defeat anyone with your sword. My strength is inferior to yours, so I can only rely on external strength.”

Chen Lifeng looked at the man and woman beside Immortal Flying Hawk and asked, “These are…?”

“They are my grandchildren, and they would need your help on the journey.”

“It’s my pleasure.” Chen Lifeng smiled.

…

Immortal Flying Hawk was a free-lance cultivator like Chen Lifeng, and they were good friends.

The group of flying hawks led the way, and Immortal Flying Hawk and Chen Lifeng sat in a gorgeous flying ship, chatting happily.

“I was worried that you would have a difficult time if you meet your old enemies, considering your injured arm. I am surprised that you are healed,” Flying Hawk said.

“I was lucky enough to get a pill during a trip.” Xiao Jinting didn’t want to be in the limelight and get any attention, so Chen Lifeng didn’t tell anyone how he got the pill.

“Mr. Chen, you’re blessed. I heard that your grandson is a Gold Core. Is it true?”

“Of course, it’s true. It can’t be false.”

Immortal Flying Hawk looked at Chen Lifeng’s complacent face and said, “Chen Xu is a hardworking child. The little bastards of my family loaf around and cause trouble every day.”

“Xu’er has been sensible since he was small.” ‘He is too sensible. My heart aches when I think of that. He was dull at a young age. However, after he met Xiao Xiaodong, he started to care about that guy and got lively.’ Chen Lifeng felt pleased and annoyed at the same time.

“Mr. Chen, how did your grandson make such a rapid progress in his cultivation?”

Chen Lifeng smiled mysteriously and said, “Xu’er is talented, and he speeds up once he starts to understand the importance of cultivation.” After Chen Xu returned, people kept coming to inquire about the secret of his rapid advancement. Of course, Chen Lifeng would not tell anyone about it.

Immortal Flying Hawk was annoyed by the pretense of Chen Lifeng, but he didn’t say anything.

“Chen Lifeng, your grandson-in-law looks promising. He seems better than Qiao Xiang.”

“Xiaodong is younger than Qiao Xiang and advanced to Golden Core earlier. It’s not a big deal.”

Immortal Flying Hawk looked at Chen Lifeng and chuckled wryly.
