Chapter 7: Long Xingyu: Welcome to the Apocalypse!

~7 min read 1,345 words

"That's right, the existence who took Ye Ling as a disciple is none other than the Divine Seal Knight of Judgment and Trial, Long Xingyu!" Chen Ying'er explained with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen Hongyu was completely stunned.

This statement was just too outrageous, wasn't it? Long Xingyu, a guy who wouldn't care about others at all, had taken a disciple.

And it was just a little Knight with mediocre talent?

This was truly mind-boggling.

However, as a Hall Master of a temple, he quickly regained his composure, looked at his granddaughter, and asked, "What exactly happened in between? Tell me about it."

Chen Ying'er could not possibly guard against her own grandfather, so she naturally explained everything simply.

After understanding everything, Chen Hongyu nodded as well.

"It seems the intelligence I gathered was indeed incorrect."

"To be able to make a guy as arrogant as Long Xingyu have this kind of attitude and keep observing from the side, it's not simple, not simple at all."

Chen Hongyu evaluated.

His attitude toward him also underwent a significant change at this moment.

"How about it, Grandpa? I told you my judgment was quite good, didn't I!" Chen Ying'er asked smugly.

"It is indeed good. Then, find a time, and Grandpa will also go personally to see this child and see just how terrifying his abilities are!" Chen Hongyu said slowly.

Meeting the parents? After hearing these words, Chen Ying'er thought of Ye Ling's words from before—which she wasn't sure were a confession or not—and her little face couldn't help but turn red in a flash.

This left Chen Hongyu completely bewildered.

What kind of thought process did his granddaughter have? What was she thinking about? Yulong Pass, Mountain of the Divine Seal.

This place could be said to be one of the places with the most surging Light Spiritual Power, apart from the altar where the Divine Seal Throne was located.

And after Long Xingyu brought Ye Ling in, the Light Spiritual Power in the entire place showed a hint of joy, constantly pulsing.

And the source of the change that they were cheering for and gathering around was naturally Ye Ling.

"It seems his talent is definitely far more terrifying than mine. Even when I first came here, there was no such change."

Long Xingyu nodded.

This child was truly different.

He slowly set him down.

And quietly observed the changes in Ye Ling.

From time to time, he would click his tongue in wonder.

Soon, the light aura gathered on Ye Ling also slowly dissipated, and quite a bit of it gathered back into his body.

After waking up, Ye Ling also looked around at the first opportunity.

The immense concentration of Light Spiritual Power here, as well as the aura released by the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul within his body, confirmed to him that he was still at Yulong Pass.

"Here? Where is this?" Ye Ling looked at everything around him, appearing somewhat surprised.

And in front of him, there was only a middle-aged man wearing ordinary leather clothes.

This man made him feel somewhat familiar, but for a moment, he didn't know who he was.

"Senior, who are you?" Ye Ling asked suspiciously.

"Long Xingyu." Long Xingyu answered simply.

"Divine Seal Knight Long Xingyu? Although it is a bit abrupt, could you please provide some proof, Senior?" Ye Ling asked.

Long Xingyu was not displeased by this situation.

On the contrary, he was very satisfied with Ye Ling's counter-reconnaissance nature.

If it were any other Knight, they would probably have started getting excited immediately, right? Soon, a phantom appeared on his body, and a reddish-gold light flickered continuously; it was a special throne, projecting out from Long Xingyu's body.

As a Knight, they all kept the appearance of the Six Great Thrones firmly in their hearts, and here at Yulong Pass, one could also recognize the aura.

This was absolutely impossible to fake! Combined with Ye Ling's description of Long Xingyu's temperament and appearance from the original text, Ye Ling reacted completely at once and bowed: "Probationary Knight Ye Ling, greets Star Universe Hall Master! However, if I remember correctly, I should have been fighting on the Yulong Pass wall just now. Why was I brought here? I ask Star Universe Hall Master to explain!"

Hearing this, Long Xingyu explained: "I took you away."

Ye Ling's expression changed: "Then what about Ying Er?"

"I sent her back. It seems you still don't know her identity?" Long Xingyu said with interest.

"It's good that she was sent back." Ye Ling breathed a sigh of relief, then continued to ask: "Then, why did you take me away?"

"I have taken a fancy to you." Perhaps feeling that this sounded a bit strange, Long Xingyu added: "Based on my previous observations, whether it is your talent, your personality, or your combat ability, they are all excellent. This is true for what I need, and it is also true for what the Knight Temple needs."

"And likewise, I intend to take you as my disciple!"

Long Xingyu's words took Ye Ling by surprise all of a sudden.

Good heavens, taking him as a disciple? The old him definitely wouldn't have caught Long Xingyu's eye.

It was probably because the light power leaked out when he awakened the Six-Winged Angel today, and he noticed it instantly.

As expected of a Divine Seal Knight!

Truly powerful!

A real man should be like this! Watching Ye Ling's contemplative expression, Long Xingyu was somewhat surprised.

Good heavens, a Divine Seal Knight is taking you as a disciple to your face, and you are actually still here pondering and considering?

This is too unique, isn't it? Although he would not force others to become his disciples.

But this matter still needed to be settled quickly.

"What? Do you have other thoughts? Or do you think I am not suitable to be your teacher?" When he said this, Long Xingyu felt like he was going crazy.

He never expected that one day he would actually say such things.

It had always been him picking disciples; how could a disciple pick him!

"Taking me as a disciple?" Ye Ling was stunned, his eyes thoughtful.

As a transmigrator, Ye Ling was certainly very familiar with Long Xingyu compared to the original residents of this world.

Although this guy has a rather extreme personality, and even has a tendency toward "self-cuckolding."

However, the Long Xingyu of this world has not yet reached that extreme.

But setting that aside, toward his own disciple, toward the ordinary people of this world, and toward the rest of the Knights, Long Xingyu is extremely excellent.

Not to mention, everything he does is for the sake of driving away the Demon Race; whether in the past or the present, this can be said to be exactly the same as Ye Ling's thoughts, without the slightest deviation.

Furthermore, Ye Ling himself had the idea of apprenticing to a powerhouse.

To want to become a powerhouse, having talent is useless; one must also have resources.

Ye Ling did not hesitate and went straight to perform the apprenticeship rite among Knights toward Long Xingyu, saying: "Disciple Ye Ling greets Teacher!"

Hearing this, Long Xingyu smiled: "Since that is the case, then you should prepare yourself."

"Prepare?" Ye Ling asked in confusion: "What kind of preparation?"

"Do you know that every year there are many Knights who want to apprentice to me, but why have I almost never taken a disciple?"

"Why?"

"That is because they are afraid; they cannot endure it!"

"Does that mean it is too bitter?"

"It is not!" Hearing this, Long Xingyu smiled slightly, then looked toward Ye Ling's position, a hint of something slightly cruel appearing at the corners of his mouth: "That cannot be described as merely too bitter."

"Perhaps, it can be described using the first word of my Divine Seal Throne."

Having said that, Long Xingyu smiled at the corners of his mouth and waved his hand, saying: "Welcome to the Apocalypse!"
