"Right!" Zhou Qi suddenly shifted the topic and said, "There’s one more thing I almost forgot. Mr. Ling, you were the champion of this year’s newcors’ competition. As a reward from the ceremony, you will beco a mber of the Heavenly chanism Pavilion. I wonder when you will have ti. We can keep it simple, just go through the formalities for you and Mr. Song. Once you join the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, we all beco one family. No matter what happens, the Heavenly chanism Pavilion will provide you with protection, just like this ti. If acting under the na of the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, even the God Organization won’t dare to touch you. Although the Heavenly chanism Pavilion fears the God Organization, they also dare not lightly provoke us."
Mr. Ling’s eyes sparkled, this sounded quite good. If he had the backing of the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, he could probably walk more confidently in the future, who would dare provoke him.
"Elder Zhou, are there any other benefits to joining the Heavenly chanism Pavilion?"
"Benefits?" Zhou Qi said with a smile, "There are plenty of benefits. Since you were the champion of the newcors, the Heavenly chanism Pavilion will definitely cultivate you vigorously. Within a few years, your strength will significantly improve."
"How will they cultivate ? Do I have to stay at the Heavenly chanism Pavilion all the ti?"
"Of course. The Heavenly chanism Pavilion possesses the richest resources, where else could you go if not there."
Hearing this, Mr. Ling hesitated. Being stuck in the Heavenly chanism Pavilion all the ti ant no freedom anymore. Thinking this, he asked, "Elder Zhou, after joining the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, am I not allowed to move freely?"
"The Heavenly chanism Pavilion has its rules. Free movent is allowed, but most of the ti you must stay in the Pavilion, unless your strength reaches a certain level, then you could be permitted to go out freely."
"What level?"
"It’s best to beco a master on the Earthly List. With your capabilities, as long as you cultivate diligently, you could break through your current limits and reach that rank within at most five years."
Five years?
Mr. Ling was startled. Spending five years in the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, given his temperant, he couldn’t sit still for that long. Besides, the outside world was waiting for him; he didn’t have so much ti to waste in the Pavilion. In five years, by the ti he beca an Earthly List master, Nanrong Wanqing might have married soone else.
"No, this won’t work." Mr. Ling shook his head and said, "Elder Zhou, if that’s the case, then I can’t join the Heavenly chanism Pavilion. Sorry, I still have many personal matters to attend to, and I probably don’t have ti to stay in the Pavilion."
Zhou Jun, who was beside them, couldn’t help but persuade, "Mr. Ling, this is a rare opportunity, you really shouldn’t miss it. Think about it, after five years, when you beco the youngest Earthly List master, how glorious that would be, right?"
"What use is glory?" Mr. Ling said dismissively, "There are always higher skies beyond the skies, and other people beyond people. The Martial Arts world of Huaxia is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, you never know how many unknown masters are out there. Even if one’s martial skills are strong, they will eventually be surpassed by others, and I don’t want to beco an obsessive martial artist. Besides, my personality isn’t suitable. I’d rather go back to my colorful world and be an ordinary person."
"As you wish." Zhou Qi finally spoke, "This kind of thing depends on your own will; the Heavenly chanism Pavilion won’t coerce. Alright, if there’s nothing else, then I’ll go and respond to the people from the God Organization."
As Zhou Qi and Zhou Jun turned to leave, Mr. Ling seed to think of sothing and quickly called out to Zhou Qi.
"Mr. Ling, is there anything else?"
"Elder Zhou, you rember Dongfang Yu, right? Initially, your people from the Heavenly chanism Pavilion saved him from our hands, and you promised us so convenience during the Heavenly chanism Great Ceremony. I won’t argue about the convenience, but you from the Heavenly chanism Pavilion should at least give us a reason, not let us suffer losses without knowing."
"Dongfang Yu... I rember now, there indeed was such a matter. Sorry, if it weren’t for your reminder, I almost forgot about it. The reason the Heavenly chanism Pavilion intervened on behalf of Dongfang Yu is that he is a master on the Earthly List. Mr. Ling, in Huaxia’s Martial Arts world, let alone the Heavenly List, even Earthly List masters are quite scarce. Therefore, as long as it’s not too excessive, our Heavenly chanism Pavilion will extend so leniency and privileges to them, giving them a chance to reform. If they don’t heed the advice of the Heavenly chanism Pavilion and continue to act recklessly, the Pavilion won’t provide any further protection."
Mr. Ling nodded, "Since you put it that way, I won’t pursue it. But if Dongfang Yu cos to trouble us again..."
"You have nothing to worry about. If he dares to harm you, you won’t need to lift a finger; the Heavenly chanism Pavilion will take care of it."
"That’s comforting. Gentlen, have a good journey, I won’t see you out."
The next day.
Morning.
When Mr. Ling got up, the port of Jinhai City was already in sight.
Due to the event that occurred yesterday, the Heavenly chanism Pavilion decided to end this voyage early, sending everyone back to land to avoid further unexpected incidents. After all, the Heavenly chanism Great Ceremony was already finished, except for the final celebratory ceremony which wasn’t held as usual, everything else went smoothly.
After packing up, Mr. Ling went to Qiu Yong’s room to greet him, then he headed alone to the deck.
Standing in front of the cabin door marked with warning signs, Mr. Ling hesitated for a mont, and finally gathered the courage to push open the door.
His main purpose here was not to et the mysterious Tea Girl, but to inquire about the whereabouts of Porridge Girl. Since Porridge Girl left yesterday, he hadn’t seen her again. Mr. Ling had searched almost the entire ship but found no trace of Porridge Girl. Thus, he pinned his last hope here.
That night, he had seen through the surveillance video that Porridge Girl had entered and exited the room where Tea Girl resided. It was evident that the two won knew each other, and perhaps Tea Girl knew where Porridge Girl was.
Entering the cabin, before Mr. Ling reached the door of Tea Girl’s room, he saw a delicate-looking woman coming towards him, blocking his way.
Yesterday at the venue, Mr. Ling had seen this delicate-looking woman, knowing only that she was a mber of the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, but not her exact identity.
"Mr. Ling, I’m very sorry, but this area is not open to outsiders, please leave as soon as possible."
"I’m here to find the owner of that room. Could you please send a ssage for , tell her I have sothing very important to discuss?"
"Please wait a mont."
Shortly after, the person ca out of the room and said indifferently, "You may enter, but you have only five minutes."
"Thank you!"
Walking into the room, it was arranged just like the last ti, with a curtain separating the middle. Behind the curtain, a delicate silhouette could be vaguely seen.
"Have a seat."
Tea Girl’s pleasant voice ca from behind the curtain.
"What important matter do you have for ?"
"You know soone called..." Mr. Ling was about to directly ntion Porridge Girl, but then he thought that the na ’Porridge Girl’ was only his nickna for her, and Tea Girl might not know who he was talking about.
He quickly changed his words: "The other night, a woman with a covered face ca here, I need to know her whereabouts."
