Lu Chen was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and joked, "What, do you think I'm favoring one over the other?"

"Heh." Gu Yuena snorted coldly. If she were to appear in front of Lu Chen now, she would definitely roll her eyes.

Gu Yuena continued, "I can't guarantee what others might say, but I don't believe you, Lu Chen, are unaware of her identity—she is Ning Rongrong, the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, who will become the Nine-Colored Goddess in the future."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "I do know, so what?"

Gu Yuena said warily, "Are you plotting something again? You know the other person's future but you're still hiding it from them."

Lu Chen glanced back at Ning Rongrong, who was jogging towards him, and then replied:

"It was just a mutually beneficial arrangement between us. She was after my soul tool technology, and I was after her immense wealth. It was a perfect match, nothing more to say. Besides, you see, she insisted on following me; I didn't force her."

Gu Yuena said, "That girl was destined to become the Nine-Colored Goddess, but her fate has changed because of your appearance."

Lu Chen said innocently, "Don't blame me for this. If we really want to investigate, then we should blame God."

After God sends me here for 20,000 years, the trajectory of this world will definitely change.

Besides, how do you know she wouldn't be better off with me?

After Lu Chen finished speaking, Gu Yuena didn't reply for a long time. Lu Chen knew that Gu Yuena had started disappearing again.

At this moment, Ning Rongrong had already caught up with Lu Chen.

Ning Rongrong said breathlessly, "Couldn't you have waited for me? I'm a support-type Soul Master! How can I compare to you offensive-type Battle Soul Masters in terms of physical strength!"

"Then consider it training to improve your physical fitness! As a support-type Soul Master, you need to be able to outrun others on the field. Besides, I'm not a power-attack type Soul Master, I'm a control-type Soul Master," Lu Chen said casually, waving his hand in front of him.

"Control type?" Ning Rongrong was taken aback. "Isn't your martial soul that silver spear? How did it become a control type?"

Lu Chen replied, "That's my weapon, not my martial spirit."

Ning Rongrong asked in confusion, "Then what is your martial soul? Hey, slow down! I can hardly keep up with you."

Ning Rongrong only caught up with Lu Chen for a moment before Lu Chen overtook her again.

"Walking around more is good for Soul Masters!"

"If that's what you're saying, then we'll still have to do morning exercises, right? I might as well go back to Shrek Academy!" Ning Rongrong said breathlessly.

"Wait a minute... let me catch my breath first..."

At this moment, Ning Rongrong could no longer keep up and stopped in place, panting heavily.

Lu Chen didn't force Ning Rongrong and stopped walking.

Although he wasn't a power-attack type Soul Master, his childhood habit of blacksmithing gave him a robust physique. Furthermore, his experience of undergoing the Ice and Fire Refinement Technique meant his stamina was comparable to that of a three-ring power-attack type Soul Master. This was why Ning Rongrong couldn't catch up.

Lu Chen turned to look at Ning Rongrong.

At this moment, Ning Rongrong had one hand resting on a tree, her fair forehead covered with fine beads of sweat, and a few strands of hair stuck to her flushed cheeks.

She was bent over, her thin clothes soaked with sweat, revealing dark watermarks on her chest, and you could even see her slightly sized breasts rising and falling slightly with her breath.

"Tsk, having too good eyesight isn't always a good thing." Lu Chen clicked his tongue and turned his face away.

When Ning Rongrong saw Lu Chen turn his face away, she felt something was wrong. Then she looked down at herself and immediately understood what was going on. Her cheeks flushed instantly.

Ning Rongrong muttered a few words to divert their attention: "Why is your physical condition so good, you're a control-type Soul Master? You're like a monster..."

Lu Chen said, "Because I have a unique body-strengthening method."

Ning Rongrong's ears perked up, as if she had heard something novel. "What body-strengthening method? Can I practice it too?"

"In theory, anyone with a strong will can cultivate as long as their soul power level reaches a certain level," Lu Chen replied.

Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up. She stopped panting and her legs were no longer numb, and she ran to Lu Chen's side in three quick steps, completely forgetting the embarrassment of her exposed private parts.

"What kind of body-strengthening method is it? Can you teach me?" Ning Rongrong asked expectantly.

Lu Chen said helplessly, "Teaching a disciple can starve the master. If you want my body-tempering method, you have to exchange something for it."

A blush crept across Ning Rongrong's cheeks. She lowered her head shyly, adopting a girlish demeanor, and said, "Then what do you think of me?... "

Lu Chen solemnly raised one hand and said, "Your suggestion is good, but I think we need to add more money."

Ning Rongrong was displeased at this point and said angrily, "What do you mean by 'I have to pay more'? I'm naturally beautiful, it's your honor that I've taken a liking to you!"

Lu Chen spread his hands and said, "Miss Ning, if you really want this body-tempering method, be serious and show sincerity. At the very least, don't joke around—look, you said it was my honor to be interested in me, which means you're not interested at all."

If you keep acting this quirky when you're doing business with me, I'll keep refusing to do anything with you. Speaking of which, you really should learn a thing or two from Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in this regard.

Ning Rongrong paused for a moment when she heard her father's name.

Then she stuck her tongue out at Lu Chen and said playfully, "You're just like my father, an old-fashioned person who doesn't understand romance at all, hehe."

"That's truly an honor," Lu Chen said. "So, do you still want that body-tempering technique?"

"want!"

Ning Rongrong replied without hesitation, "How could I not want it? Name your price. As long as it's not too outrageous, I can agree to it."

Lu Chen paused for a moment, then said, "I've heard that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has a method for distraction. If you can teach me, I'll teach you my body-tempering method."

This time, it was Ning Rongrong's turn to hesitate.

Distraction control is a sect's most treasured technique, much like the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect's Blue Lightning Dragon Transformation or the Clear Sky Sect's Ring Explosion. These are foundational techniques of the sect, of great significance. This technique will not be taught to anyone who is not a disciple of the sect.

However, if this technique weren't taught only to disciples, Lu Chen wouldn't have bothered with it. Moreover, the core of his martial soul is the manipulation of elements, making distraction and control especially important for him.

During the era of the Dragon King Legend, Gu Yue repeatedly manipulated different elements, maintaining a delicate balance between these opposing elements. When the mixture of these elements was released, it could instantly cause extremely terrifying damage!

Even when one's cultivation level is low, if one can master the five elements, one can even pose a certain threat to a nine-ring titled Douluo!
