Chapter 54 Resonance of Intensions
Long Tian walked into the bathroom. It felt a bit odd to walk around naked, but this was his villa; there was nothing to worry about.
He turned on the shower, the rush of water hitting his body, a symphony of droplets creating a refreshing percussion against his skin. The cool sensation mingled with the warmth of the room, creating a comforting contrast.
And at the same time, he was thinking about something. If Qin Chen died, wouldn't he officially become the protagonist? That's what he often thought about when he transmigrated into this world.
But regardless of whether Qin Chen was there or not, he didn't care about his role in the novel. From the beginning, he had considered himself the main character.
But one thing for sure, he must kill Qin Chen.
***********
After his shower, Long Tian put on his uniform and currently opened the door to a room on the second floor.
The scene was the same as before; Li Yue'er was still unconscious, with otherworldly Reiki flowing out in abundance.
And as usual, Shen Yulan absorbed the Reiki. Since Li Yue'er had been unconscious, he had already let Shen Yulan absorb the Reiki, so she didn't join him when he went to the market to find ingredients for evolution potion.
In that instant, Shen Yulan's eyes fluttered open, her gaze meeting Long Tian's. She studied him closely, her words threaded with curiosity, "You look different, Long Tian."
"More handsome?" he retorted, a playful glint animating his eyes.
A hint of exasperation tinged Shen Yulan's response, "When will you get rid of your narcissistic tendencies?"
"Isn't that a fact?" Long Tian grinned unabashedly.
"incurable, it seems. Anyway, I sense that your spiritual power has become stronger than before. What did you do?" Shen Yulan asked curiously.
"Well, I just drank a potion. At the very least, my spiritual power is five times stronger than before. At this point, if a soul were to possess my body, I could devour it easily," Long Tian replied with an impish grin.
Shen Yulan fell silent upon hearing this. It wasn't the first time Long Tian had grown stronger. While she still preferred Qin Chen, she wasn't sure if he could defeat Long Tian in a battle.
"Anyway, today is the day of the martial spirit awakening ceremony at my school. Are you coming with me?" Long Tian shifted the topic, asked.
"Martial spirit awakening? Sure, I'll come with you," Shen Yulan responded.
"Alright," Long Tian nodded and picked up the jade necklace, putting it around his neck.
************
As Long Tian drove to school, on the other side, Liu Qian was taking a shower.
She had just woken up after drinking the evolution potion Long Tian had given her. She was surprised when she woke up; her bathroom was almost entirely steamed up. Fortunately, there was no one around, and she didn't know why her father hadn't discovered it.
And luckily, their house had six bathrooms, with two on each floor.
After drinking the potion, she felt stronger within herself. She had to thank Long Tian for giving her the potion.
*************
After a while, Long Tian had arrived at the school grounds and parked his car. He walked around, seeing a large stage set up in the middle of the assembly field.
It was the place where students would awaken their martial spirits. There was a large white crystal in the center of the stage. And also an inscription without any text, which was a magical stone that could reveal the name of a person's martial spirit.
Many students had already taken their seats around the stage, and there were also many parents who wanted to see their children.
Unfortunately, he hadn't informed his parents; they probably wouldn't have come. But that wasn't a big deal.
As he walked, he suddenly saw a familiar face. It was Qin Chen, chatting with an old man dressed in the attire of a cultivator. He approached them.
"Yo, Qin Chen, any progress on my request?" Long Tian's voice carried a playful note, his lips curling into a grin.
Noticing him, Qin Chen responded, "Be patient, Long Tian, I will give it to you as long as you fulfill your end of the bargain."
"Of course, as I promised, I'll give you Li Yue'er. But do you know what I mean by my request?" Long Tian asked again.
"Don't worry about that, I understand it well," Qin Chen answered.
"Good," Long Tian nodded, his eyes holding a glint of mischief.
As he was about to leave, the old man next to Qin Chen said, "You must be Long Tian. I've heard about you often, but I didn't expect to meet you here."
Long Tian turned his gaze to the old man, inquiring, "And who are you?"
"Han Yuan, one of the Elders of the Wudang sect," Han Yuan answered.
Hearing this, Long Tian was slightly surprised. One of the Elders of the Wudang sect... So the old man was the one who had always been helping Qin Chen.
In the original plot, Qin Chen was always assisted by an Elder from the Wudang sect, but the author didn't mention the Elder's identity. It seemed he had found him now.
"I've heard a lot about you from the sect leader. Why did you refuse to join the Wudang sect?" Han Yuan asked curiously.
"There's no specific reason," Long Tian answered casually.
Han Yuan nodded, examining Long Tian from head to toe. He didn't see any flaws; Long Tian looked perfect for his age, and he carried himself well.
But appearances didn't always reflect one's character. Long Tian might be talented and highly regarded by the sect leader, but he might not have a good personality. Being the young master of the Long family, an ancient family, he was undoubtedly quite arrogant.
In contrast, Qin Chen was different. Han Yuan had come to know him and found his character to be good. He believed Qin Chen was far better than Long Tian in all aspects.
"Let's go, Elder Han," Qin Chen suddenly said.
Han Yuan nodded and went along with Qin Chen.
Long Tian's gaze lingered on the figures of Qin Chen and Han Yuan as they walked away, a glint of sinister intent flashing in his eyes.
Han Yuan would be very troublesome if left alive, so he had a plan to kill him, and of course, Qin Chen too.
