Chapter 84 – Family teacher, Leng Feiyan

Chapter 84 – Family teacher, Leng Feiyan

The disciples of the Tianyan Sword Sect's Inner Temple were fully qualified to make even a prince like him seek their friendship.

The Hidden Dragon Royal Family had eight princes in total, all of whom were candidates for the future throne.

Emperor Ji Hongyue did not appoint a crown prince based on seniority but allowed them to build their own networks and power.

Whoever had the most influence and connections in the future would become the crown prince.

Therefore, the eight princes had understood the importance of networking from a young age, each having an impressive web of connections.

The disciples of the Sword Sect's Inner Temple were all apprenticed to one of the twelve Grand Elders. Regardless of which Elder they followed, their future achievements were bound to be extraordinary.

Even if they didn't achieve much, they would at least become masters of the Golden Elixir stage. As a prince, how could he not understand the value of such high-quality connections?

He was eager to find out which Grand Elder Lin Jichen was apprenticed to, so he could flatter that Elder and gain some favor.

But Lin Jichen's answer left him puzzled.

"My master is not one of the twelve Grand Elders."

"Oh?" Ji Chen asked in confusion, "Has the rule for Inner Temple disciples changed? I remember that all Inner Temple disciples were apprenticed to the twelve Grand Elders."

Lin Jichen smiled brightly and revealed, "I am the Sect Master's last disciple. My master is Leng Feiyan."

Ji Chen was stunned, his eyes wide with shock.

This astonishing news shook the entire hall.

Even the servant behind Ji Chen was covering his mouth in surprise.

Ji Chen was the first to react, as if doubting his own ears, and asked again.

"What did you just say? You said you are... the Sect Master's disciple? Leng Sect Master's disciple?"

"Absolutely."

Lin Jichen finished speaking and took out the Soul Talisman given to him by Leng Feiyan.

The reason he announced his identity so boldly was to see if he could get some benefits from the Third Prince.

With the Soul Talisman in hand, the Hidden Dragon Royal Family wouldn't dare to harm him.

The only thing he was unsure about was whether Leng Feiyan's name carried enough weight to get him some benefits...

Seeing the talisman, Ji Chen finally believed him. His heart was in turmoil, as if struck by a bolt from the blue!

But soon, his shock turned into joy, and he looked at Lin Jichen with a changed expression.

It was as if he was looking at a peerless beauty standing naked before him.

Lin Jichen felt a bit weird. Hey, hey, hey, what is this prince thinking? What's with that look?

"How many spirit stones do you have left?"

"Emm... less than ten thousand."

"How much reputation do you have?"

"Less than three hundred."

Ji Chen clapped his hands and said, "I'll sell this shop for five thousand spirit stones and two hundred reputation!"

Lin Jichen almost laughed out loud. Oh my, this prince is so considerate and knows how to make friends.

"This... isn't right."

Lin Jichen pretended to refuse.

At this moment, the eunuch returned with the deed.

Ji Chen took the deed and immediately handed it to Lin Jichen.

"Brother Lin, if you still consider me a friend, please accept this deal. If you refuse, it means I, Ji Chen, am not worthy, and I understand."

Seeing Ji Chen say this, Lin Jichen 'moved' and patted Ji Chen's hand.

"In that case, thank you. I, Lin Jichen, am willing to be friends with the Third Prince!"

"Haha, it's an honor, an honor. Being friends with Brother Lin is truly my honor!"

...

After Lin Jichen left, the smile on Ji Chen's face hadn't faded, showing that he was in a very good mood.

The servant beside him quietly reminded, "Royal Brother, did you forget your promise to Linglong? You said you would take me out of the palace to play, but you've been delayed for a long time..."

Ji Chen suddenly remembered and smiled apologetically at the servant, "Look at my memory, I forgot. Let's go, I'll take you out of the palace now. I'm in a great mood today, I'll make sure you have a great time."

"Mm-hmm." The servant nodded eagerly, happily following Ji Chen out of the City Administration Hall.

Outside the palace, Lin Jichen was overjoyed with the two deeds in hand.

Indeed, it's good to have a powerful master. The disciple also benefits.

This is what they mean by "when one person ascends, even their pets rise to heaven"... though it feels like he's insulting himself...

Never mind, he made a huge profit anyway.

One thousand reputation and sixty thousand spirit stones for two properties, it was like a pie falling from the sky.

Lin Jichen didn't know which shop Ji Chen had given him, so he quickly followed the address on the deed to check it out.

When he arrived at the address, he was stunned by the size of the shop before him.
