Saying that, he enthusiastically leaned over, seemingly wanting to give Lin Chen a hug.
Lin Chen was taken aback, a chill rising from his heart.
Instinctively, Lin Chen dodged, then ended up embracing the man...
"Hmm, what the heck?"
Lin Chen was stunned again.
He was clearly supposed to have avoided the man’s hug, so how did they end up hugging?
Lin Chen quickly pulled away, stepping back half a step.
The man smiled undiminished, introducing himself:
"My na is Max, originally from Mo Country. I’m the initiator of the Ares Program..."
"Oh? So he is indeed a foreign friend!" Lin Chen muttered to himself.
Unexpectedly, Max shook his head and said,
"No, just half a month ago, I applied for Great Xia nationality. Now I’m a citizen of Great Xia!"
Hearing this, Lin Chen was montarily baffled and turned to look at Wang Lishan.
Seeing this, Wang Lishan also looked helpless, and finally introduced:
"Ahem, Lin Chen, let introduce you."
"This Ares person was a figure from four hundred years ago... Mo Country’s Ares Program initiator..."
"Hmm... you can understand it as Great Xia’s Sequence Plan, all aiming to train top martial artists..."
Pausing, Wang Lishan continued:
"As for Ares’ strength... hmm, Martial Emperor Peak?"
Hearing this, Ares shook his head and said,
"No~ dear Wang... a month ago, I sensed this destined man, Lin Chen... so I broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm."
Upon hearing this, Wang Lishan was also taken aback.
"Martial Emperor?"
Lin Chen was shocked inside.
This sowhat effeminate Mo Country man is a Martial Emperor!?
"No? I’m not effeminate... I’m just a gentleman, and I’m a Great Xia person now!" Ares said, taking out his freshly made Great Xia ID card.
Mind Reading Skill?
Lin Chen was stunned again.
"Yes, it’s Mind Reading Skill... but that’s just part of my powers."
"My real ability is prophecy!"
Ares’ smile remained unchanged, startling everyone as he said:
"I used to be Mo Country’s National Preceptor and initiator of the Ares Program..."
"However, now that I sensed your presence. I have defected from Mo Country."
"Next, I will beco your important follower. Lin..."
Lin Chen, upon hearing this, was even more bewildered.
What the heck? The National Preceptor of Mo Country defected to join Great Xia?
Since when did I have such a follower...
Ares smiled and said,
"Lin, in the future, I will beco your right-hand man..."
"Under your leadership, the Human Race will surely drive out the Demon Beasts and beco the strongest race in the universe!"
"After coming to Great Xia, I discovered... the cultivation level of Great Xia is truly astonishing!"
"Immortal Martial Dual Cultivation, this is simply a genius plan! It will surely beco the trend of the New Era!"
"And you... the great Lin, are the creator of the New Era, destined to beco the god of the Human Race!"
After hearing this, Lin Chen fell silent.
He seriously suspected that this man nad Max in front of him wasn’t quite right in the head.
Hmm... how to say?
Besides being inexplicably eccentric, he seems quite talented in Great Xia?
"However... this Max’s cultivation..."
Lin Chen’s pupils shrank suddenly.
Although he couldn’t see through Max’s Martial Arts Realm.
But his cultivation... seems to have reached the Golden Core Stage?
"Impossible... Cultivation was only introduced to Mo Country a few years ago, how did this guy beco a Golden Core Cultivator?"
Lin Chen found it hard to believe.
Could this Max really...
"Yes, I’m a genius."
At this mont, Max found a pair of gold-rimd glasses from sowhere.
He slightly raised his chin, unintentionally revealing a profound gaze.
"According to the intelligence Lin retrieved, I’m a Celestial Spirit Root Cultivator."
"From Qi Refining to Golden Core... it only took three years."
"That’s why I’m even clearer... how wonderful Cultivation is!"
Indeed...
A Celestial Spirit Root Cultivator, naturally not lacking in cultivation resources with his Martial Emperor Realm.
In this way, achieving Golden Core within three years also makes sense.
This talent is truly frightening.
Though still a bit inferior to Lin Chen, as Lin Chen’s journey to Golden Core took even longer...
"Max, nearly five hundred years old. Why still so neurotic?"
Just then, a voice suddenly appeared.
The next second, Lv Zishou appeared beside Lin Chen.
"Elder Lv." Lin Chen hesitated slightly in his heart and saluted Lv Zishou.
Upon seeing Lv Zishou, Max also brightened up.
"Oh, dear Lv... it’s you again."
"Why aren’t you defending in the Third Martial Realm? How co you have ti to co back?"
Lv Zishou glanced at Max, remaining silent.
But soon, Max showed a hurt expression.
"Oh Lord! You actually don’t trust ... you think I would harm Lin, harm the hope of the Human Race’s future?"
Elder Lv said nothing, also having his mind read by Max.
In fact, he indeed didn’t trust Max.
After all, Max was a National Preceptor, a Prophet, praised as the man who would lead Mo Country to the pinnacle of the world.
For the past few hundred years, Max was the second-in-command of Mo Country.
A man truly at the center of power...
Yet, such a person suddenly defects from Mo Country to join Great Xia.
All to follow in Lin Chen’s footsteps, how could Lv Zishou be at ease?
Even if not fearing Max harming Lin Chen, he feared Max luring Lin Chen to Mo Country.
Cultivation transcends national boundaries, but cultivators have national boundaries!
To ensure Lin Chen’s safety, Lv Zishou rushed back to Great Xia at the first opportunity after learning of this.
