Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2440: Chapter 2444: The Young Man in Black

Seeing Elder Zhu and the others disappear again, everyone knew where they went and looked at Chancellor Taiyuan.

Chancellor Taiyuan frowned slightly and was about to leave, but then suddenly stopped, showing a relaxed expression, thinking to himself.

Only that one can keep Elder Zhu in check!

”Old Zhu, are you crazy? How long are you going to fight?”

A reprimanding voice faintly came, and three formidable auras flashed and disappeared.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Three figures appeared in the hall, two being Elder Zhu and Meng Youyuan who had left, and the third was a young man in black attire. Despite his young appearance, the depth in his eyes suggested his real age was not as it seemed.

After scanning the hall, the young man in black fixed his gaze on Jiang Chen, displaying a look of surprise, and only then turned to Chancellor Taiyuan.

”Taiyuan, what happened?”

”Master!”

Chancellor Taiyuan respectfully bowed to the young man in black.

Hiss...

”Master?”

”He... is he the master of Chancellor Taiyuan?”

”Isn’t that the sole disciple of the first chancellor?”

”Wow, what should we call him now?”

A chorus of gasps arose, as everyone looked at the young man in black in shock.

Whoosh!

Chancellor Taiyuan had just completed his salute, and before he could explain, the young man in black flashed and appeared before Jiang Chen.

At this moment, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes.

As soon as he opened them, he was greeted with a handsome yet sinister face almost pressing against his own, startling Jiang Chen into springing back in alarm.

”Kid, how about becoming my apprentice?”

The young man in black rose with him, staring intently into Jiang Chen’s eyes.

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, glancing at the young man.

”Apprenticeship?!”

”Wow, this is the master of the chancellor. If he’s apprenticed, doesn’t that make him the chancellor’s junior brother?”

”How did this kid get so lucky? How could he attract such attention?”

”This really...”

An uproar of exclamations arose, and everyone looked at Jiang Chen enviously.

Could it be the chancellor’s master?

Jiang Chen furrowed his brows slightly, cupped his fists, and said, ”Senior, sorry, I already have a master!”

”No problem, I can be your master along with him.”

The young man in black waved it off indifferently.

Chancellor Taiyuan’s expression suddenly changed, as he knew how discerning his master was.

Back then, many extraordinary talents, even those like Jiang Chen who were also Sons of Heavenly Dao, wanted to apprentice under his master but were refused.

Yet now, his proud master was willing to share a disciple with someone else...

Giving Jiang Chen a deep look, Chancellor Taiyuan sighed internally, seems I underestimated Jiang Chen’s talent!

”Sorry, Jiang Chen only recognizes one person as his master in this life!”

Jiang Chen said solemnly.

Hu Yiqiu smiled slightly, showing a look of approval.

”You, you...”

The young man in black hesitated, reluctantly saying, ”How about I be your mentor then?”

”Old...”

Everyone was dumbfounded, what was happening? This being was actually willing to lower himself to be a mentor?

”Jiang Chen, don’t fail to appreciate kindness!”

Meng Youyuan’s eyes flashed, voicing a low warning.

”Maybe Senior Meng likes to casually take masters and mentors, but sorry, I, Jiang Chen, am not that casual!”

Jiang Chen glanced at Meng Youyuan disdainfully, saying mockingly, ”If you intend to curry favor with this senior through me, you’re thinking too highly of yourself. If I were to accept this senior as a mentor, the first thing I’d do would be to ask him to beat you up!”

”You...”

Meng Youyuan’s face darkened, glaring fiercely at Jiang Chen.

”Alright!”

The young man in black nodded rapidly, kicking towards Meng Youyuan.

Bam!

Meng Youyuan didn’t even react before being sent flying.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of loud crashes were heard, and Meng Youyuan crashed through several walls of the Elixir Medicine Pavilion, flying somewhere unknown.

Everyone was utterly stunned, staring blankly at the young man in black, mouths agape, jaws almost dropping.

”I’ve hit him, so you’re my student now, you can’t go back on your word!”

The young man in black looked nervously at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen stared blankly at the young man in black, with an expression caught between humor and disbelief.

”Silence means consent, here’s a gift for our first meeting!”

The young man in black continued on his own accord, pointing a finger as a stream of light flew into Jiang Chen’s forehead.

Buzz!

A crimson glow flared up, blocking the light at his brow.

”Oh?”

The young man in black was surprised, hurriedly telepathically saying, ”Don’t block it, it’s combat skills, advanced combat skills, ones that surpass the Heaven Rank!”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen’s eyes showed a hint of shock, but his brows were tightly knit as he looked suspiciously at the young man in black.

”No need to doubt, I sensed the presence of Lord Ancestral Dragon on you. Since you’re chosen by him, I must take care of you. Back then, Lord Ancestral Dragon saved my life!”

The young man in black telepathically explained again.

Jiang Chen’s heart trembled upon hearing this, eyes revealing shock.

What strength did this young man possess? He had Ancestral Dragon Qi, yet no one ever detected it before.

”Young Jiang, accept it!”

Hu Yiqiu hurriedly said, a look of urgency in his eyes.

After casting a glance at Hu Yiqiu, Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, then extended his Divine Sense to guide the stream of light into his Sea of Consciousness.

”The Sword of Thunder Tribulation,” a no-rank combat skill: when the Thunder Sword is unleashed, Tribulation Lightning is destroyed!

Glancing through the contents within the stream of light, Jiang Chen’s heart trembled fiercely.

Thunder Sword unleashed, Tribulation Lightning destroyed?! What does this mean? This combat skill can even obliterate Tribulation Lightning?!

However, what does no-rank mean?

Jiang Chen’s eyes showed a hint of doubt.

”This is a part of a combat skill of such high rank that you can’t cultivate it with your current state, even just this part requires the Formation of Dao Seed to cultivate,” the young man in black telepathically said, seeing Jiang Chen’s puzzled expression.

As the two exchanged silent communication, everyone waited silently, knowing better than to interrupt this being’s conversation.

Jiang Chen’s eyes showed a look of comprehension, along with a trace of excitement. A combat skill requiring the formation of a Dao Seed to cultivate, this must surpass the Heaven Rank, right?

”Thank you, teacher!”

Jiang Chen bowed to the young man in black, reluctantly acknowledging him as a mentor.

”Hehe, no need to thank, no need to thank!”

Hearing Jiang Chen’s address, the young man in black breathed a sigh of relief, happily patting Jiang Chen’s shoulder, he proudly said, ”Rest assured, from now on in Changling Academy I’ll look after you. If anyone bullies you, just let me know, I’ll beat them to death!”

Everyone’s faces changed, especially the Pill Masters, who glanced at the hole left by Meng Youyuan’s exit, shrinking their necks in fright.
