Transmigrated into a Grandpa, Embracing the Laid-Back Life

Chapter 164: Changes

It was still that secluded side hall.

The stone door closed, cutting off everything from the outside world.

"Sit."

Chen Ping's voice carried a trace of weariness.

Su Ming sat down as instructed, his posture still respectful.

Inside the Xuantian ring, Lin Yu let out a long, deep sigh.

"My god! You scared your master half to death!"

"Disciple, with your acting skills, not winning an Oscar in your previous life would have been a waste of talent!"

"But... this time, we've really gone too far. The Enforcement Hall is involved. People fear fame just as pigs fear getting fat. It'll be hard for us to keep a low profile and grow quietly on Formation Peak now!"

Su Ming felt a bitter laugh in his heart, but dared not show the slightest hint of it on his face.Chen Ping remained silent for a long time, seemingly organizing his thoughts.

Finally, he retrieved a palm-sized, pitch-black token from his storage pouch and slid it across the table towards Su Ming.

On the token, only one flamboyantly written character "Chen" was engraved.

"This is my personal disciple token."

"With this token, on Formation Peak, seeing it is like seeing me in person."

"From now on, if you have any matters, come directly to the main peak to find me. No need to go through anyone else."

These words were no longer a promise, but protection.

The most direct protection from a Golden Core True Disciple.

Su Ming hurriedly stood up and bowed deeply.

"Many thanks for Senior Brother's great favor! This disciple..."

"No need to thank me." Chen Ping cut him off, smiling a self-deprecating smile.

"Regarding today's matter, if not for your meticulous mind and discovering the clues in advance, I'm afraid... my Maintenance Department would have become a huge laughingstock."

He looked at Su Ming, a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

"I'm just curious, did you really... just happen to come across that miscellany by luck?"

Su Ming's heart tightened, knowing the real test had arrived.

He raised his head, revealing a bitter smile uglier than crying, tinged with a hint of bookishness.
