Chapter 102 Master and Disciple Reunited! Zhao Gongming Sends a Message with a Talisman!
Not long after.
Chen Changsheng and Li Jing and his wife had already arrived at Sanshan Pass.
General's Residence.
Upon hearing the news, Deng Jiugong immediately appeared to greet him.
After all, Chen Changsheng was of extraordinary status and was also the master of his own daughter, Deng Chanyu, so he dared not be negligent in the slightest.
"Um?"
Deng Jiugong was slightly surprised to see that Li Jing and his wife were also with Chen Changsheng.
Upon entering, he quickly bowed to Chen Changsheng and said:
"Master Chen, you've arrived!"
Chen Changsheng nodded slightly and smiled faintly in response.
Then, Deng Jiugong's gaze fell on Li Jing and his wife.
"General Li, Madam Yin, it's been a long time!"
Upon hearing this, Li Jing and his wife immediately bowed to Deng Jiugong.
"Greetings, General Deng!"
Deng Jiugong nodded slightly and warmly welcomed Chen Changsheng and the other two into the inner hall.
After taking his seat, Deng Jiugong looked at Li Jing curiously and asked:
"General Li."
"How did you and your husband end up with Master Chen?"
Li Jing didn't hide anything and quickly said:
"Reporting to the General."
"Shi Niang and I were ordered by the Grand Tutor to exterminate a wolf demon."
"Who would have thought that the wolf demon was so powerful that my husband and I almost lost our lives at its hands."
At this point, Li Jing paused slightly, still feeling lingering fear as he recalled his previous battle with the wolf demon.
Then, he glanced at Chen Changsheng before continuing:
"At the critical moment, Fellow Daoist Chen appeared and killed the wolf demon, which saved my husband and me."
"After making some inquiries, I learned that Fellow Daoist Chen was coming to Sanshan Pass, so my wife and I accompanied him."
After listening to Li Jing's explanation, Deng Jiugong nodded in understanding, then turned to look at Chen Changsheng and said:
"Thank you, Master Chen, for saving General Li and his wife."
"Those two are truly talented individuals for our great Shang Dynasty!"
Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and waved his hand, saying:
"General Deng, you flatter me. It was just a small favor."
Just as Deng Jiugong was about to say something, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the hall.
Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw Deng Chanyu quickly run into the inner hall.
Upon entering, her gaze swept quickly, immediately settling on Chen Changsheng:
"Master!"
"You're back!"
Deng Chanyu was overjoyed and rushed towards Chen Changsheng.
After all, she hadn't seen Chen Changsheng for several years, so she was naturally happy to be reunited with him.
"Ahem!"
Seeing this, Deng Jiugong's brows furrowed, and he coughed lightly, saying:
"Chanyu, you mustn't be rude!"
Upon hearing Deng Jiugong's reminder, Deng Chanyu immediately realized what was happening and bowed deeply to Chen Changsheng.
"Disciple Deng Chanyu greets Master!"
Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and glanced at Deng Chanyu standing in front of him.
Upon closer inspection, Deng Chanyu appeared even more spirited and radiant, her aura refined and powerful, clearly indicating that she had not slacked off in her cultivation.
Besides, Chen Changsheng noticed it at a glance.
Over the years, Deng Chanyu's cultivation has advanced to the third level of the mortal realm, the Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness.
One can then break through to the Refining Emptiness and Harmonizing with the Dao realm.
"good."
"It seems that you haven't slacked off in your cultivation while I've been away."
Hearing what Chen Changsheng said, Deng Chanyu playfully raised her chin, a hint of smugness in her eyes, and replied:
"Of course!"
"Master! During the days you were away, I have been cultivating diligently every day and have never dared to slack off in the slightest."
After Chen Changsheng sent Deng Chanyu back to Sanshan Pass, he went to Buzhou Mountain on his own.
Before leaving, Chen Changsheng told Deng Chanyu.
If he can raise his cultivation to the level of Refining Emptiness and Merging with the Dao within ten years, he will accept Deng Chanyu as his formal disciple.
For this reason, Deng Chanyu has been cultivating day and night for the past few years, working diligently without stopping.
Naturally, she wanted to meet Chen Changsheng's requirements as soon as possible and cultivate to the Refining Void and Harmonizing Dao Realm.
In this way, she could become a formal disciple of Chen Changsheng.
Seeing the harmonious interaction between Chen Changsheng and his disciple Deng Chanyu, Li Jing glanced at Deng Jiugong and exclaimed in admiration:
"General Deng!"
"It is truly an incredible stroke of luck for your daughter to become a disciple of Fellow Daoist Chen!"
"His future achievements will undoubtedly be extraordinary!"
Hearing Li Jing's words, Deng Jiugong was pleased and stroked his beard with a smile, his eyes full of pride.
"General Li, you flatter me."
As he spoke, Deng Jiugong turned his gaze to Chen Changsheng and said:
"Master Chen, my daughter is unruly. She needs your help."
Chen Changsheng nodded slightly and said:
"Now that I have accepted her as my disciple, I will not do anything half-hearted."
"If she can fulfill my original requirements, I will naturally accept her as a formal disciple."
Upon hearing Chen Changsheng's words, Deng Chanyu, who was standing in front of him, immediately became resolute.
"Master."
"This disciple will definitely cultivate diligently."
"Strive to break through to the Refinement of Emptiness and Integration of Dao realm as soon as possible."
Chen Changsheng nodded and said nothing more.
Over the years, Deng Chanyu has broken through to the third stage of the mortal realm, Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness.
He was only one step away from achieving the Dao of Refining Emptiness.
He knew very well that with Deng Chanyu's talent, that day shouldn't be too far away.
Seeing that Chen Changsheng did not speak again, Deng Chanyu stood obediently beside him, ready to listen to Chen Changsheng's instructions at any time.
At this moment, Deng Jiugong suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Li Jing:
"By the way, I heard that General Li will soon be heading to Chentang Pass to take charge?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jing smiled slightly and nodded, saying:
"Exactly."
"Grand Tutor Wen has recommended him to the King, and the King has agreed."
"After the handover is completed, I will take my family to Chentang Pass to assume my new post."
Deng Jiugong smiled and said:
"That's an important position, congratulations General Li!"
Upon hearing this, Li Jing quickly cupped his hands in response, saying:
"Not at all, it's just my duty."
……
In the days that followed, Chen Changsheng stayed temporarily at the Deng residence.
Besides his own daily cultivation, he devoted himself to guiding Deng Chanyu.
Not only did he help her solidify her foundation, but he also explained the deeper mysteries of the Thunder Blade Technique to Deng Chanyu.
In addition, Chen Changsheng also imparted some of his basic insights into the Thunder Dao to Deng Chanyu.
With Deng Chanyu's current level of spiritual refinement and emptiness cultivation, what Chen Changsheng said is enough for her to benefit from for a long time.
Under Chen Changsheng's guidance, Deng Chanyu's cultivation naturally improved.
They are getting closer and closer to the fourth stage of the mortal realm, Refining Emptiness and Integrating with the Dao.
Li Jing and his wife have been recuperating at the General's Mansion these days.
After all, the couple had been seriously injured in their previous battle with the Heavenly Immortal Wolf Demon.
Seeing Chen Changsheng's meticulous guidance of Deng Chanyu, the two were deeply moved.
Everyone knows that the difference between having a master to guide you and figuring it out on your own is enormous.
……
In the blink of an eye.
January has passed.
On this day, Chen Changsheng had just finished instructing Deng Chanyu on her cultivation.
at this time,
A message suddenly pierced through time and space and landed on him.
My master instructed me to return to Mount Emei.
This message came from Zhao Gongming.
