speak at this time, he could only stare expectantly at Li Chen.And Li Chen, hearing Zhao Xuanji's words, directly refused without thinking."No, Xu Changqing has been working at the Ministry of Finance...Chapter 1369: When Can I Enter the Realm of Terrestrial Immortals

My master was brilliant from a young age, but he didn't like being a prince, let alone an emperor. Instead, he had a special fondness for martial arts and Taoist culture. He then left the palace incognito and joined the Heavenly Master Dao.

Li Tianzun explained: "Of course, a prince's identity cannot be so casually abandoned. The Taoist sect is not so easy to enter. However, the events of that year concealed many secrets and truths that were destined to remain unknown. Even I can't say for sure. This secret, perhaps even Emperor Daxing doesn't know it. Now, in this world, before I reveal it, only I should know this secret."

"But as for you and me right now, I was taught by my master. He saved my life and raised me, so when I say that I have a connection to your Li Clan lineage, it's not just talk."

After he finished eating the apple in three or two bites, Li Tianzun smiled at Li Chen again and said: "But I'm a free spirit by nature, I can't stand being bound. You and I are destined not to be on the same path. Being able to travel together for a while is already fate. When the fate runs out, we should part ways. Do you understand what I mean"

Li Chen was a bit down.

If he had a master like Li Tianzun by his side, he would be completely free from worries.

For example, today's Jue (meaning "awakening") shore, in the future there might also come a Jue dog, Jue cow.

In his estimation, Li Tianzun's strength was on par with Jie Wanguang, standing alone at the pinnacle of the terrestrial immortal realm.

Such a person, however, is not bound by worldly rules and conventions. Therefore, methods that might be effective on ordinary people are useless against him.

Although Jiewang was successfully threatened and tempted with the Buddhist teachings, Li Tianzun's personality was clearly very different from Jiewang's.

If you were to threaten and tempt Li Tianzun with celestial master techniques, not only would it be ineffective, but it would also completely estrange him, which is not worth the risk.

Li Tianzun smiled, then suddenly turned his head to Gong Huiyu and said: "Young lady, seeing that my friend is so agreeable to me, I'll give you a chance to ask me a question."

This can be considered Li Tianzun's way of repaying Li Chen.

After all, he is the prince, the future emperor. Even if Li Tianzun is unrestrained, he still has to give some face.

The disciples and grandchildren of the Heavenly Master Dao all rely on the imperial court for their livelihood.

We can't let the old bald monks of Buddhism steal all the believers.

He wouldn't actively compete for Li Chen's support, but he also wouldn't put on airs and push Li Chen towards the Buddhist sect.

The emergence of Jue'an is a good thing for Taoism, but Li Tianzun obviously also understands that for someone like Li Chen, public and private are distinct. Jue'an is Jue'an, Buddhism is Buddhism, they can be mixed up when discussed, or clearly separated.

Palace Huiyu tilted her head slightly, realizing how precious this opportunity was for a martial artist.

Especially her, she has been stuck at her current realm, and can hardly see any hope of further progress.

"When can I reach the realm of a terrestrial immortal" Gong Huiyu didn't beat around the bush, asking in a straightforward manner.

Li Tianzun rubbed his chin and took another good look at Gong Huiyu, saying, "You're out of luck."

These three words would be devastating to any half-step Earth Immortal.

Gong Huiyu remained calm, simply nodding in response without further elaboration.

He seemed resigned, yet also as if he didn't acknowledge Li Tianzun's words at all. equivalent to opposing his own father.Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. From the middle-aged man's attitude towards him, he knew the other party was aware of his identity."The chief minister truly...
