Douluo: Lin Dong Travels Through Huo Yuhao

Chapter 19: Laughing at the Red Dust: Grandpa's Mission

Lin Dong showed a meaningful smile and touched his ear nonchalantly: "Just tell me whether you agree or not?"

Looking at his casual look, Jing Hongchen couldn't help but sigh:
"Alas, this time we three old guys have fallen into your hands, you little bastard. It's because your thing is too attractive. I agree."

Seeing that Jing Hongchen had already expressed his opinion, Xuan Ziwen and the others had no other opinions and looked at Lin Dong and nodded.

Seeing this, Lin Dong showed a satisfied smile. Since they all agreed, what he was going to say next would be easier to handle.

Then he looked at Jing Hongchen and smiled, "Dean Hongchen, I believe you have read my file."

Hearing Lin Dong mention this matter on his own initiative, Jing Hongchen was somewhat confused but still felt relieved. After all, the fact that he took the initiative to bring it up meant that there was nothing shameful about it.

Then he nodded and said, "That's right, but your file only records the way you came to Sun and Moon. I don't know anything else. Even if you don't want to tell me, I still believe you."

Since Jing Hongchen trusts Lin Dong so much, it is natural that he is willing to give him such important core technology. This is enough to show Lin Dong's sincerity.

Jing Hongchen's words made Lin Dong feel more favorable towards him, but after hesitating for a while, he slowly spoke:
"Three teachers, I will tell you the truth. I am not from the Sun and Moon Empire, but from the Star Luo Empire."

As soon as he said this, the expressions of the three people changed, and Jing Hongchen couldn't help but ask:

"Then why did you come to Sun Moon? With your talent, wouldn't Shrek and Xingluo Royal Academy be vying for you?"

"I have an irreconcilable feud with the wife of the Duke of White Tiger. If I stay in Xingluo, I will inevitably be targeted. Moreover, she has sent soldiers to hunt me down. So I have no choice but to come to Sun and Moon."

Jing Hongchen and the other two looked at each other with unstoppable smiles in their eyes. This Duchess is really a good person, and they will "thank" her well in the future.

Jing Hongchen looked at Lin Dong with a serious face and said, "Don't worry, you are in Sun Moon now. Not to mention the Duchess, even the so-called White Tiger Duke would not dare to come here to seek revenge. Just focus on your cultivation. The academy will give you the best treatment."

"By the way, Dean, if my core array is used by you on soul guides, I hope I can have the right to control these soul guides in the future. I am not the kind of person who does not bear grudges."

The three of them noticed that a frightening murderous intent suddenly appeared on Lin Dong’s young face, but he quickly adjusted himself and continued:

"It doesn't have to be all of it. Just take the part that I need. I think this request shouldn't be too much."

Listening to Lin Dong's calm tone, Jing Hongchen did not show any dissatisfaction, but agreed with a smile:

"No problem, it's all a small matter. As long as you need it, the Empire will equip you with a customized soul guide."

Hearing Jing Hongchen's answer, Lin Dong smiled with satisfaction, then looked at Jing Hongchen and bowed:

"Then thank you very much, Dean and the two teachers."

Seeing his rather mature action, the three of them looked at each other, wondering how badly the young man in front of them had been persecuted to have such a mature character.

Then, when they looked at Lin Dong, there was a hint of kindness in their eyes.

As the head of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen had no choice but to speak and test:

"Lin Dong, if one day, Sun Moon and Xing Luo go to war, which side will you choose to stand on?"

Lin Dong noticed the wariness in his eyes, but he still said calmly, "Stand on my side." Hearing his answer, Jing Hongchen couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Then which side do you stand on?"

"I'll stand on the side of whoever treats me well. Anyway, my impression of Xing Luo is always just that small woodshed."

Seeing the coldness in Lin Dong's eyes, Jing Hongchen's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible joy, and he secretly thought in his heart:

It seems that we need to send more people to build relationships with Lin Dong. He is at a vulnerable time right now, so why not... let Xiao and Meng have more contact with him.

Thinking of this, Jing Hongchen immediately looked at Lin Dong and nodded:

"That's good. As long as you don't have any intention of helping the Xing Luo Empire, we at Sun and Moon will definitely do our best to train you."

Lin Dong nodded, as if he remembered something, and said with a complicated expression:
"Once the war begins, apart from myself, only those close to me can protect me. The sect, the country, etc. will be distracted by too many concerns."

Looking at Lin Dong in front of him, Jing Hongchen couldn't help but think of his grandchildren.

Although both of them have good talents, their character is far worse than Lin Dong's. It is estimated that it will not be long before this young man in front of them will become the leader of the entire academy.

Then he sighed and patted his shoulder heavily:

"Okay, let's not talk about this topic anymore. The most important thing for you now is to improve your realm. Just practice with peace of mind."

Lin Dong nodded: "Then I will go back and rest first. Tomorrow I will be in Teacher Xuan's laboratory and explain the core formation problem to the three teachers in detail."

Hearing this, the three of them couldn't help but smile, and nodded repeatedly like primary school students listening to their teacher.

If other people saw this scene, they would never believe it. These three people are the top researchers in Sun and Moon Soul Guidance Devices. How could they be so... respectful to a boy who is only eleven years old?
After separating from the three people, Lin Dong returned to his own residence. After such an intense carving session, his body was exhausted to the extreme, and he collapsed on the bed and fell into a deep sleep...

Lin Dong opened his eyes and saw the sun hanging high outside. He rubbed his temples:
"I just made a second-level soul guide, but I'm so tired that I slept until now. I have to practice faster."

After saying that, he took a deep breath and was about to start absorbing the power of thunder to temper his Great Sun Thunder Body, but unexpectedly, there was a knock on the door.

Lin Dong stood up and opened the door. Unexpectedly, it was Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen who came. Before he could speak, Meng Hongchen smiled and said:
"Grandpa asked me to take you to familiarize yourself with the environment of the academy, and to introduce you to the specific uses of some soul guides."

Then a strange smile appeared on his face, and he pointed at Xiao Hongchen beside him and said:

"As for this guy, he's my stubborn and arrogant brother. He would never admit that you are better than him, and he insisted on coming here to see you."

Lin Dong looked at the scene in front of him and suddenly thought of Qingtan. He then took the initiative to extend his hand to Xiao Hongchen: "Hello, Lin Dong."

Xiao Hongchen first glared at the snickering Meng Hongchen, then stretched out his hand, with a hint of pride in his tone: "Xiao Hongchen!"

Seeing Lin Dong's strange gaze, Xiao Hongchen unconsciously turned his head to the side and said angrily:
"Why are you looking at me like that? I came to you just for grandpa's mission. Don't listen to Meng's nonsense."

Lin Dong was still unsure at first, but after hearing his words, he instantly became certain of one thing:

Another guy who likes to talk tough like Xiao Diao.
