Lu Chen felt a bit off.
Li Mingru seemed...
Somehow different from what he had imagined!
Could there be a hidden agenda here?
Was it Xiao Hei?
Lu Chen shook his head secretly, sure that it had nothing to do with Xiao Hei.
Then what was it for?
Lu Chen took a deep breath and said, "Teacher, I want to ask, why can't I leave?"
Li Mingru also seemed to realize he had been somewhat out of character and let go of his hand, saying, "Lu Chen, you are cultivating spiritual power! I am an intermediate cultivator after all, I can guide you in this respect! If you leave the academy, what if something goes wrong with your cultivation?"
Having said that, he turned his head to look toward Heavenly Medicine Elder!
"Indeed," Heavenly Medicine Elder stroked his beard and also began advising Lu Chen, "Lu Chen, Ming Ru is second only to the dean in Heavenly Book Academy! Do you know why, after you killed Wu Chiren, Xu Zhengde didn't come to trouble you?"
