Peerless Tang Sect: Becoming a God Through Medicine

Chapter 14 Childish Laughter, Let's Coax Him

"You shouldn't ask me this question, you should ask Grandpa Jing when we can go to the academy for classes." Lin Nuo smiled and gently pinched Xiao Meng's nose.

Jing Hongchen was quite pleased that his granddaughter liked Lin Nuo.

When Jing Hongchen saw Xiao Meng running into Lin Nuo's arms and whimpering again, he just teased her a couple of times and then took the opportunity to ask Lin Nuo to call him grandpa as well. The meaning was clear: he agreed to their relationship.

Even Xiaomeng's pretty face, as red as an apple, was ignored by Jing Hongchen.

As an elder, Jing Hongchen naturally had a well-thought-out cultivation plan for them.

Although Jing Hongchen's plans were constantly being modified because of Lin Nuo's surging soul power due to taking drugs.

In short, don't worry about whether his plan is accurate or not; just say whether he has a plan or not.

If they wanted to cultivate soul tools, they naturally needed Jing Hongchen's approval; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to even enter the realm of soul tools and could only learn theoretical knowledge at home.

Upon hearing the mention of soul tools, Young Master Xiao's eyes, which had lost their luster, immediately lit up.

"Arno, in terms of cultivation speed and strength, I can't compare to you, you freak with a special physique. But when it comes to soul tools, I can definitely learn faster than you!" Xiao Hongchen raised an eyebrow at Lin Nuo provocatively and issued a challenge.

"How about it? Dare to compete with me and see who can level up their Soul Master rank faster?"

Before Lin Nuo could even speak, Meng Hongchen muttered under her breath, "Xiao, why are you still acting like a child? You have to compare everything..."

Xiao Hongchen immediately became anxious upon hearing this: "Meng, you haven't even married into the family yet. Even if you do, we'll still be family. Why are you always siding with Arno?"

Upon hearing this, Meng Hongchen merely snorted softly and did not continue arguing with her seemingly childish brother.

Lin Nuo shrugged and said, "Sure, if you want to compete, then compete. But let's see when Grandpa Jing agrees to let us study at the academy first."

"Then it's settled!" Xiao Hongchen said, full of fighting spirit.

The three of them left the arena chatting and laughing.

Lin Nuo didn't take Xiao Hongchen's challenge to the challenge seriously. It wasn't that he looked down on Xiao Hongchen, but rather that he was well aware of the gap between himself and Xiao Hongchen.

In the original work, apart from Huo Yuhao, who is overpowered, Xiao Hongchen is undoubtedly the most talented in soul tools. In the Legend of the Dragon King, it is even mentioned that Xiao Hongchen was the first person to break through to the tenth level of soul tool master.

Lin Nuo couldn't remember whether it was level eleven or twelve, but it definitely happened.

In terms of soul tools, he is definitely no match for Xiao Hongchen; he is a born soul tool master.

Accepting this challenge was purely to appease my brother-in-law.

Lao Xiao has suffered too many setbacks in the past few years, to the point that his genius and arrogance have been worn down to a great extent, which is not what Lin Nuo wanted to see.

Regardless of Jing Hongchen's original purpose in bringing him back to Mingdu, or whether there was any hidden meaning behind it, the fact remains that he was good to Lin Nuo, and even planned to give his beloved granddaughter Meng Hongchen to Lin Nuo.

Lin Nuo had long considered them as family.

It's a good thing that it can help Lao Xiao regain his spirits, find confidence in the path of soul tools, and even unleash a more brilliant soul tool talent than in the original story.

Compared to my brother-in-law's future achievements, some trivial matters of winning or losing are simply a matter of accepting defeat.

Lin Nuo has a good attitude and won't get easily hurt or break down over such a small matter.

It was these three family members he spent every day with that made him cherish them even more.

Aside from his identity as a transmigrator and his extraordinary physique that transcends the rules, which he genuinely couldn't reveal to the three of them, Lin Nuo had been almost completely open with them.

Some things can be said, and some things cannot. It was almost a week later when I saw Jing Hongchen again.

As the head of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen was indeed very busy, especially since Mingde Hall had many research tasks at present. He didn't know about other plans, but Lin Nuo did know about the humanoid soul tool No. 1 experimental subject that Huo Yuhao stole in the original work.

If you calculate the timeline, these past few years have been the key period for the development of Experiment No. 1.

Jing Hongchen can only go home occasionally, which is the limit. Most of his time is spent developing humanoid soul tools.

However, Lin Nuo has not yet gained a deep understanding of soul tools and has only learned some theoretical knowledge. Therefore, he is unable to provide Jing Hongchen with any guidance based on the ideas in the original work and the battle armor of later generations.

"You want to join the academy and begin learning about soul tools?"

At the dinner table, Jing Hongchen looked at her grandson, granddaughter, and grandson-in-law and frowned in thought.

“Yes, Grandpa, I’m already twelve years old, and Meng and Arno are eleven. It’s not considered early enrollment now, so we should be able to enter the academy to learn about soul tools, right?” Xiao Hongchen looked at Jing Hongchen with anticipation.

He really wanted to win.

Knowing that the Soul Tool might be the only way for him to defeat Lin Nuo, Xiao Hongchen's obsession with the Soul Tool surged like never before, as if his passion was burning!
This was precisely Lin Nuo's goal; he couldn't afford to be distracted by studying the path of Soul Master too deeply.

But Shrek can't be left without someone to target them.

Especially Huo Yuhao, that shameless bastard, now on the opposite side, Lin Nuo couldn't wait to crush this original protagonist with a single finger.

The three people have different thoughts.

But the ultimate goal is always the same: the soul tool.

Jing Hongchen didn't think about it for long and quickly agreed.

Xiao Hongchen is right. The three of them are old enough and have sufficient cultivation. Two are Soul Venerables and one is a Soul Master approaching level 50. Learning about Soul Tools now will not affect their cultivation.

"Sure, you can just register when the college starts recruiting students next month."

It's been a really long month.

Xiao Hongchen had never felt that time was dragging on for so long. In the past month, he read through the basic knowledge of soul masters several times over and over again, barely managing to get through the month.

Standing at the bustling entrance of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Xiao Hongchen opened his arms as if to embrace the heavens and earth.

A sudden surge of heroic spirit!

He even had an urge to shout it out.

Soul Guidance Device, your emperor has returned!

But this is Mingdu after all, and his identity is too sensitive. He can't say such things, or Jing Hongchen will be invited for tea tomorrow.

I wouldn't dare say that if I weren't in Mingdu.

However, judging by future achievements, Xiao Hongchen's statement is actually quite accurate.

"Let's go, let's go register first, I can't wait!" Xiao Hongchen said excitedly, pulling Lin Nuo and Meng Hongchen towards the interior of the academy.

Lin Nuo and Meng Hongchen exchanged a glance, smiled helplessly, and followed in Meng Hongchen's footsteps.
