Chapter 152: Chapter 152 Kneel in Front of the Door

Detoxification Pill dissolves quickly upon being consumed, transforming into a medicinal effect that spreads out and wanders within the body.

This kind of Elixir differs from the Spirit Revitalizing Pill, with half of it likely dedicated to detoxification and the other half pure Spiritual Energy.

After all, the detoxification energy needs to attach to the Spiritual Energy to circulate throughout the body.

A quarter of an hour passes, and the power of the Detoxification Pill is completely consumed.

However, Ling Chen’s skin remains impeccably clear, without a trace of toxins expelled.

Instead, this pure Spiritual Energy has enhanced Ling Chen’s Spiritual Power Cultivation by a minor level, reaching the late seventh stage of the Spirit Sea Realm!

"This Elixir must be fake, right?"

It was supposed to be a detoxifying Elixir, yet somehow it mimics the effects of a Spirit Revitalizing Pill.

No toxins were expelled, only an increase in cultivation.

Ling Chen couldn’t help but wryly smile.

"Isn’t this Palace Master too stingy? To actually fool me with fake medicine?"

The favorable impression he just had of the Palace Master significantly decreased in an instant.

If it weren’t for the sake of the medium-grade Telekinesis weapon, Ling Chen truly would have considered quitting.

"Let’s save this Spirit Ascending Pill for Xiao Wu."

Ling Chen took out another Spirit Ascending Pill, glanced at it, and then put it away.

He had already consumed one before.

Taking another would practically have no effect.

Better to let Xiao Wu have it.

Ling Chen practiced Divine Soul Telekinesis in the courtyard for a while, then took out his Identity Token and summoned Gu Ce.

"Young Master Ling."

Upon entering, Gu Ce bowed respectfully.

"Can you refine Detoxification Pills?"

Ling Chen looked at Gu Ce, speaking indifferently.

Detoxification Pill is also a third-grade Elixir.

"Yes."

Gu Ce quickly nodded.

Ling Chen nodded slightly and instructed, "Good, refine a few for me today and bring them over in the evening."

Ling Chen found Gu Ce easily manageable as free labor.

Regarding the materials needed for refining Elixirs, Ling Chen believed that Gu Ce wouldn’t dare to ask him for them.

After all, Gu Ce still needs him to help find Luo Luo and remove the imprint in his Divine Soul!

Although, with Ling Chen’s current Divine Soul Cultivation, it would be easy to break the Nine-Star Imprint in Gu Ce’s Divine Soul.

But, Ling Chen didn’t plan to make a move.

At least not until his strength surpasses that of Gu Ce.

Gu Ce once attempted to kill him, and if not for Luo Luo’s intervention, he might already be dead by Gu Ce’s hands.

Ling Chen certainly wasn’t going to let this slip by easily.

Consider it punishment for Gu Ce!

"Yes."

Gu Ce quickly agreed.

What could he do?

He was desperate too.

But with someone else’s seal in his Divine Soul and even the Lord National Master helpless against it, he could only seek help from Ling Chen, who had connections with Luo Luo.

Though Ling Chen hasn’t mentioned taking him to Luo Luo yet, he could only endure.

Fight against Ling Chen?

He wasn’t looking to die.

The imprint in his Divine Soul is entirely for protecting Ling Chen.

The moment he harbored any thoughts of capturing Ling Chen, the imprint in his Divine Soul reacted, causing intense pain.

He truly didn’t dare to.

Though discontented, Gu Ce still respectfully complied.

"Wait a moment!"

He had just reached the doorway when he heard Ling Chen’s voice.

"Young Master Ling, do you have any other instructions?"

Gu Ce obediently ran back.

Ling Chen looked at Gu Ce and asked, "Gu Lin, what is your relation to him?"

A few days ago, during the investigation by the Ghost King Guard and the Palace Master, Gu Lin caused him trouble, and Ling Chen hasn’t settled this matter yet!

"He is my grandson!"

Gu Ce quickly responded.

Of course, not a direct grandson.

Gu Ce is from the Gu family, one of the six esteemed families, and is Gu Lin’s great granduncle!

"Alright, I know. Come over tonight and bring your grandson with you; I have something to ask him!"

Ling Chen said with a faint smile.

Upon hearing this, Gu Ce shuddered.

Recalling how, during the investigations by the Ghost King Guard, Gu Lin had intentionally made things difficult for Ling Chen, he broke out in a cold sweat.

He, as a grandfather, was already struggling to protect himself.

How could he protect his grandson?

"Yes!"

Gu Ce quickly nodded.

After leaving, the first thing Gu Ce did was to summon Gu Lin.

"Great Granduncle, what is it?"

Gu Lin asked somewhat excitedly.

It was rare for his great granduncle to summon him; this sudden summons made him think it was an opportunity to receive guidance on his Divine Soul Cultivation!

After all, his great granduncle was the foremost among the Gu family!

"I don’t have a grandson like you!"

Gu Ce slapped Gu Lin across the face with a loud "smack."

Gu Lin was dumbfounded and stood frozen for a moment before covering his cheek, looking at Gu Ce with a face full of grievance and asked, "Great granduncle, why did you hit me?"

An infuriated Gu Ce pointed at Gu Lin’s nose and scolded, "Now, immediately, go kneel in front of Young Master Ling Chen’s residence!"

He himself didn’t dare to offend Ling Chen; yet his grandson was audacious enough to not only offend Ling Chen, but even wanted to leverage the Ghost King Guard to deal with Ling Chen. It was simply an outrage!

"No!"

Gu Lin thought he must be hearing things.

His own great granduncle, for the sake of an outsider, was asking him to kneel to someone else?

Was this really someone from their Gu family?

"You little rascal, gotten too bold, have you?"

Gu Ce was hopping mad.

He was protecting Gu Lin!

But this fool still didn’t appreciate the danger.

Having interacted with Ling Chen for some time, he had somewhat figured out Ling Chen’s temperament.

He might appear calm, but inside, he was likely the complete opposite, a man who would exact revenge for the smallest grievance!

Looking at his own attitude, it was clear.

"Are you going or not?"

Gu Ce kicked Gu Lin over.

Then, he rushed over and, "smack smack smack," delivered ten slaps to his face!

He was a top Divine Thought Master, and Gu Lin was merely a mid-level Divine Thought Master, hardly a match in his presence.

If it weren’t for the fact that Gu Lin was his grandson, he would have controlled Gu Lin’s soul by now!

Controlling a Solid Realm Divine Thought Master with a Spirit Realm Divine Soul was all too easy.

Hearing the commotion outside, many Divine Thought Masters peeked out, looking over in this direction.

When they saw Gu Lin, who was regarded as the treasure of the Gu family, getting beaten to the point of not even recognizing his own mother, they were utterly stunned.

"Uncle Qingyang, save me!"

Gu Lin, seeing Gu Qingyang, immediately cried for help.

Gu Qingyang glanced at Gu Lin, then looked up at the sky, and said, "The weather is quite nice today!"

Then, right under Gu Lin’s despairing gaze, he disappeared from the window.

Gu Qingyang, regardless of his Divine Soul cultivation being inferior to Gu Ce.

Even in terms of seniority, he had to address Gu Ce as Uncle!

How could he dare interfere in Gu Ce’s matters?

Moreover, a grandfather disciplining his grandson was perfectly justified!

"Still asking for help?"

Gu Ce kicked him again: "Even if the Family Head were here, he wouldn’t dare to stop me! That youngster Qingyang, dare to meddle in my affairs?"

"Ah!"

Gu Lin immediately wailed miserably, crying out in agony.

"One last time, are you going or not?"

Gu Ce’s eyes turned cold: "Otherwise, don’t blame me for letting you experience the true power of a Spirit Realm Divine Soul?"

"I’ll go!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Lin shuddered, hastily agreeing.

A Spirit Realm Divine Soul could attack another’s soul.

The soul is the most crucial part of a person.

If it were injured, one might become mentally impaired or even die!

His great granduncle had already made the situation dire, and he certainly didn’t dare to take a risk.
