Chapter 331 Desire
Lu Zhi Yun could barely react after hearing what the white-haired young man said. Her gaze turned blank.
It was because she had seen him flicking his hand and making Xu Xue Ning and Bai Chen vanish.
“Do you desire anything? I’ll grant you one wish as repayment.”
Bai Chen from the future seemed to not care about how surprised Lu Zhi Yun was right now. For him, Lu Zhi Yun was someone he owed gratitude to for saving his life and he had not had a chance to repay her.
This was because after today, the day he’d lost Xu Xue Ning, he’d turned to the path of revenge and had done everything in his power to take his revenge on Jing Cha the Legendary.
In the future that he was from, he’d finally finished the job—even though it had taken quite some time.
However, what he had experienced and the path that he had taken would not happen to himself in this time period.
If all of it were to happen again, it would be useless of him to have spent over a thousand years to realise the eternal truth of time to point where he could defy the heavens and break the rules of space-time to come back here!
Lu Zhi Yun was still unable to respond, while Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary, Lu Zhi Yun’s grandfather, was excited. His eyes glowed.
He inhaled deeply once and tried his best to suppress his emotions. He leapt down from the sky and knelt in front of Bai Chen.
His actions were very fast, yet Bai Chen was still able to track them even without looking.
Lu Zhi Yun was awakened from her reverie when she heard a loud thud on the ground.
As soon as she turned towards its source, she suddenly exclaimed, “G… Grandfather!”
“Yun Er, quickly kneel down. Show your respect to the elder.” Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary did not care much about Lu Zhi Yun’s scream. He told her this with a serious tone.
Lu Zhi Yun was surprised and confused at first. A moment later, she came to her senses and quickly knelt down.
However, she could not kneel because there was a mysterious force that stopped her from doing so.
Of course, it was Bai Chen. He could not let the person who had saved his life kneel.
“Please get up.” Also, he thought it was bad for her grandfather to kneel to him too.
However, Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary kept kneeling there.
“Elder, please allow me to ask if you’re at the divine level?” Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary pressed his head to the ground and asked in a respectful tone.
The reason why he dared to ask was because his granddaughter was the person who’d saved the life of the white-haired man.
If not, he would not have dared to ask, even if he had had more bravery.
“The divine level?” Bai Chen was calm. He did not have to answer, but it was Lu Zhi Yun’s grandfather who’d asked. Thus, he was willing to answer a few times.
“I’m not at the divine level.”
“N…Not at the divine level?!” Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary was amazed. His eyes that were looking at the ground widened. His body trembled. His heart trembled hard!
‘I…If this elder isn’t at the divine level, which level would he be at? Does that mean the highest level is not the divine one?!?’
Actually, it was not only Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary who was surprised; Lu Zhi Yun was also the same. Her golden eyes widened and stared blankly at Bai Chen’s cracked face. Her thoughts right now were exactly the same as Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary’s, her grandfather.
“That’s right. I’m not at the divine level,” Bai Chen said, losing interest in Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary. He turned to Lu Zhi Yun.
“Lu Zhi Yun, kindly tell me your wish. If I can grant it, I won’t hesitate to do it for you.”
Lu Zhi Yun’s facial expression changed when she heard him. When he’d asked the first time, she had still been unable to react. Not anymore.
Then, a short while later, her eyes sparkled.
It was as if she had something that she desired and wanted.
However, she hesitated and felt bad about it. She thought that it was improper to ask for it. Even though he’d told her that she had saved him before, she truly could not remember when she had saved him.
How many years ago was he was talking about—two, four, six, or ten?
The only thought she had was that his face was familiar. She was sure that she had met him before. She just could not recall where.
“Elder, please make Lu Zhi Yun as strong as you.”
While Lu Zhi Yun was still hesitating, Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary quickly spoke.
“Grandfather!” Lu Zhi Yun was surprised. She did not expect her grandfather to say that.
However, it was also what she was going to ask for. Even though she did not like practicing, she still thought that cultivation was miraculous. It could grant a mere human the power to fly without using a plane.
When she saw how powerful this Bai Chen from the future was, she’d trembled. She wanted to be that powerful, too.
It was fitting that Lu Zhun Gu the Legendary was her grandfather. He could see right through her, able to determine her desire.
“As strong as me?” Bai Chen frowned a little. Yet, he did not refuse.
He looked into Lu Zhi Yun’s eyes. He thought that this was also what she wished to request from him.
For some reason, she did not say it herself. Her grandfather did.
However, Bai Chen did not take it to heart. It was her desire, so he would grant it to her. Finally, he could repay her.
It had been stuck in his heart for too long.
Finally, he had a chance to repay her. He would not miss it!
Bai Chen thought for a second and nodded. Then, he spoke to Lu Zhi Yun.
“If it’s what you desire, I’ll help make you the most powerful one in the present cultivator world. It’s up to you whether or not you’ll be able to do it!”
