Mu Chen felt a little embarrassed by the praise and rubbed his nose.
"Uh... Master, you flatter me. I may be confident, but I wouldn't dare say for certain that I'll be able to stand alongside those two in the future."
As his cultivation rose and his understanding of the Great Thousand World deepened, he increasingly understood the weight carried by titles such as Flame Emperor, Soul Emperor, and Martial Ancestor.
Di Er Meng's voice rang out in Mu Chen's heart:
"Little Mu Mu, be more confident. As Destiny's Master, you will surely stand at the pinnacle of the Great Thousand World someday!"
"Stop saying things like that. You're going to make me arrogant." Mu Chen felt somewhat helpless. Even with his steady temperament, Hun Xiao and Di Er Meng's repeated flattery still left him feeling a little lightheaded.
"Hehe, then I won't say it anymore. Hmm, I'll find a chance to pour some cold water over you."
That won't be necessary, Mu Chen muttered inwardly.
Hun Xiao nodded slightly. "Modesty is a fine virtue, but as a young man, you can be a little more high-spirited as well. Oh, right, my brother wants to see you... He had already returned to the clan, but he specifically came back here to find you."
Mu Chen was startled. He already knew that Hun Xiao's brother was the Soul Clan Leader, and he was immensely puzzled...
Why would someone so important specifically want to see me?
He looked at Hun Xiao and put on a fawning smile. "Um, Master, could you reveal why the Soul Clan Leader wants to see me? At least then I can prepare myself."
Hun Xiao shook her head unconcernedly. "It probably isn't anything major. I merely mentioned your talent in my letter, and he came rushing over."
