Chen Lin had not mentioned his Ascension to Nascent Soul in his earlier message, intending to surprise the women. Instead, his secrecy had caused Qin Lingyu considerable distress.
Had he known, he would never have concealed it. If Qin Lingyu had gone to extremes and come to harm because of this, no amount of regret would have helped.
This was a lesson, too. In the future, he had to think three times before acting.
At Chen Bao's words, Chen Ling'er's eyes went wide. She grabbed Chen Lin's arm and carefully sensed his aura.
"Ah, it's true! Daddy, you've actually become a Nascent Soul True Lord! This is wonderful!"
She jumped three feet into the air, squealing with excitement.
Now that her daddy was a Nascent Soul True Lord too, they no longer needed to fear Huo Yuntao's grandfather. Her Big Aunt's troubles would unravel like bamboo beneath a blade.
But she immediately pouted and said resentfully, "Daddy, did you do this on purpose? You didn't tell us you'd become a Nascent Soul True Lord when you sent your message, and we worried for nothing. You have no idea how miserable Big Aunt has been."
Chen Lin stroked his daughter's head affectionately. "Daddy didn't think this through. I'll be more careful next time."
Then his expression turned stern. "But you've already reached the Golden Core Realm, yet your senses are still so dull. Even Chen Bao noticed my true cultivation, while you didn't. How would you fight if you were facing an enemy?"
He continued, "And you're a Golden Core True Person now. You can't keep being so flighty. You need to be mature and steady, not act like a child who never grows up..."
Amid Chen Lin's admonishments, the two people and the rooster vanished into the void.
