Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 1398 - 1088: What Kind of Mistake Must Be Made to Be Imprisoned in Serenity Tower?
Yue Zhengze took a deep breath.
Sixteen years old, and not even born in a Super Force.
Not even from a regular Star Domain, but born in the Barbaric Star Domain.
Coming from the Barbaric Star Domain meant that Lu Chen had extremely scarce cultivation resources. In such a situation, to break through to the Returning Ruin Realm Fifth Layer at sixteen was astonishing.
This talent...
Neither the former Saintess nor the current Saintess could compare.
Returning to his senses, Yue Zhengze was overjoyed. When their Palace Master emerged from seclusion, Lu Chen would certainly be chosen as the Saint Heir!
He must seize the opportunity now to build a good relationship with Lu Chen. When Lu Chen truly became the Saint Heir, he might not even get a chance to meet him.
Thinking of this, Yue Zhengze said, "Truly, heroes emerge early."
"To break through to the Returning Ruin Realm Fifth Layer at sixteen, the position of Saint Heir of Yunhua Palace is surely yours."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Senior is joking, I just had a stroke of luck."
Yue Zhengze replied, "Even if you had some opportunities, without the corresponding talent, it would be impossible to reach the Returning Ruin Realm at this age."
"Many Heavenly Prides with opportunities find it hard to seize them if their talents are lacking."
"You could seize the opportunities because your talent is sufficient."
With a look of regret, Yue Zhengze continued.
"Unfortunately, you arrived a few days late. If you had come earlier, before the Palace Master entered seclusion, perhaps you would have been immediately made the Saint Heir upon entering Yunhua Palace."
Lu Chen asked curiously, "Isn’t there already a Saintess in Yunhua Palace? Why select a Saint Heir?"
Yue Zhengze answered, "Compared to your talent, the Saintess’s talent is nothing. Yunhua Palace encourages competition; the roles of Saintess and Saint Heir are not fixed."
"The current Saintess was only recently chosen."
Lu Chen said, "I see. Thank you for the explanation, senior."
Yue Zhengze smiled and said, "No need for courtesy, we belong to the same hall. Introducing Yunhua Palace to you is my duty."
As they walked, Yue Zhengze continued explaining the various aspects of Yunhua Palace to Lu Chen, like force distribution and rules.
Soon, they arrived near Serenity Tower. Lu Chen stopped and gazed at the silver tower in the distance.
Seeing Lu Chen’s fixed gaze, Yue Zhengze also stopped and asked in confusion, "What’s the matter?"
Lu Chen feigned curiosity, "What is that tower for? It seems quite special."
Near Serenity Tower, a unique Dao Charm emanated, making anyone who looked at the tower feel an inner peace.
Yue Zhengze glanced at Serenity Tower before responding, "That is Serenity Tower."
Lu Chen continued asking, "Serenity Tower? Is it a place for cultivation?"
Yue Zhengze replied, "You could say it’s a place for cultivation, but not anyone can enter."
"Only Direct Disciples who have made mistakes have the qualification to enter Serenity Tower for reflection."
Lu Chen said, "So it’s a place for imprisoning wrongdoers, I thought it was for cultivation."
Yue Zhengze laughed, "Serenity Tower can certainly be used for cultivation. It has a Heaven Rank Serenity Array that calms emotions, making it ideal for breakthroughs."
Lu Chen asked, "If that’s the case, why is Serenity Tower only used for imprisoning disciples instead of being opened for cultivation by Yunhua Palace disciples?"
Yue Zhengze said, "That I don’t know."
"The previous Saintess proposed to the Palace Master that Serenity Tower be used for cultivation, but the Palace Master did not agree."
"Perhaps the Palace Master is worried that too many disciples entering Serenity Tower might affect it. Serenity Tower absorbs negative thoughts, and too many might cause it to collapse."
Lu Chen said, "I see."
Without lingering on the topic, Lu Chen asked, "What kind of actions usually result in being sent to Serenity Tower?"
This...
Yue Zhengze hadn’t expected Lu Chen to be so interested in Serenity Tower, thinking Lu Chen might be planning something irresponsible by gauging Yunhua Palace’s punishment standards.
After pondering, Yue Zhengze replied, "It’s hard to say, but rest assured, as long as you don’t harm fellow disciples, Yunhua Palace won’t confine you in Serenity Tower."
Then, Yue Zhengze leaned closer to Lu Chen’s ear and whispered, "Even if you commit such acts, if no one knows or the victim isn’t a significant disciple, you won’t be confined."
Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled knowingly and said, "Thank you for the reminder, senior."
Yue Zhengze also smiled and said, "Alright, let’s continue exploring other places."
As they wandered further, suddenly, a middle-aged man’s voice echoed.
"Yoh, isn’t this Elder Yue? What brings Elder Yue to Heavenly Mountain Hall?"
The moment he heard the voice, Yue Zhengze’s face darkened. He immediately said to Lu Chen, "Lu Chen, let’s go."
As they prepared to leave, a gray-robed man appeared before them, blocking their path.
Soon, several disciples in white robes also appeared before them.
The gray-robed man glanced at Lu Chen before smilingly asking, "Is this Elder Yue’s new disciple?"
Yue Zhengze said coldly, "Liang Hong, what do you mean by this?"
Liang Hong shifted his gaze from Lu Chen back to Yue Zhengze, "Elder Yue, don’t be so agitated. I just wanted to see your new disciple."
Yue Zhengze quickly replied, "This is not my disciple, but the Immortal Seed brought back by our Hall Master."
Hmm?
Upon hearing that Emperor Yanyue brought this Immortal Seed, Liang Hong took a closer look at Lu Chen.
To his surprise, Liang Hong was stunned.
This boy is only sixteen and already at the Returning Ruin Realm Fifth Layer!
How is this possible!
This talent exceeds even that of the current Saintess!
Trouble, if the Palace Master emerges from seclusion, this boy will surely become the Saint Heir!
If Heart Moon Hall produced a Saint Heir, its status would surpass Heavenly Mountain Hall, and Heart Moon Hall would no longer be at the bottom.
Thinking of this, Liang Hong’s face darkened.
Initially, Liang Hong saw Yue Zhengze escorting a young man and thought he was Yue Zhengze’s new disciple. He had brought his own disciple, who broke through to the Returning Ruin Realm within two hundred years, to show off.
Compared to Lu Chen’s talent, his disciple’s talent paled in comparison.
