Different People Called for Different Dishes and Different Medicines; No Method Was Set in Stone

"What's going on here?"

Looking at the empty system, Gu Chen was completely bewildered.

Finally, it wasn't a failed check-in.

But right now...

What about the mission?!

After waiting for several more breaths...

The mission did not reappear.

The task reward did not appear.

Gu Chen changed his position again and spoke again:

"System, check-in."

The system was as silent as a dead rooster, not crowing once.

Gu Chen let out a long sigh.

I made a special trip all this way, and went through so much trouble here.

And then there was nothing.

"This system seems a bit unreliable."

An idea popped into Gu Chen's mind.

However, Lu Changzhi did not notice these reactions from him.

After resolving the system issue on Gu Chen's side, he used the Descent to return to Hidden Origin Peak.

They came quietly, and they left quietly.

"Now that I have a mission to complete, it seems I'll need to get out and about more often for the next while."

Back in the courtyard, Lu Changzhi said softly.

After all, while there's a chance that something like waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump might happen, the probability of that happening again, given that Gu Chen was the one who waited for him from the very beginning, is not very realistic.

As for the Land of the Four Directions, there's clearly no point in searching for them.

During this time, he traveled to various places in the Land of the Four Directions, but the system did not make any move to take on disciples, so the outside continent was obviously more likely.

"However, there's no rush for now."

With a soft voice, Lu Changzhi sat down on the recliner.

The Law Contemplation Gathering soon.

According to what he knew, during the Law Contemplation Gathering, the most outstanding young talents from various forces Five Continents, as well as Rogue Cultivator from all directions, would go to hear the Dao.

If the other party also goes, it can be considered another form of offering themselves up.

With this thought in mind, Lu Changzhi stopped considering the matter and instead chose a comfortable position to lie down.

Five Continents.

The news spread that Myriad Laws Academy had brought forward the Law Contemplation Gathering.

The entire Five Continents seemed to become lively as a result.

All around, one could often see cultivators emerging from seclusion, and in many places, they could be seen conversing with each other like old friends.

"I thought you'd died in seclusion. It seems you also found out about this."

"If anyone's going to die, it'll be you first. I'm still in great shape." The other man laughed and cursed, then said:

"It's been so long since we last met. How's your cultivation going? Have you made any breakthroughs?"

"At this age, breakthroughs in cultivation are no easy feat. I hope this Law Contemplation Gathering bring me further insights, allowing my strength to improve even further."

"You old codger, take it easy. I see your face is dark; you might have all your luck gone after that trip."

"Black? If it's really black, then there's even less to worry about. No one can absorb it, so you can comprehend it for free. Isn't that wonderful?"

Discussions related to the Law Contemplation Gathering can be seen everywhere.

Compared to older practitioners who focus on enlightenment itself, younger practitioners tend to concentrate on the discussions that might arise among promising younger generations during the Law Contemplation Gathering.

The most outstanding among their peers are the ones who attract their attention the most.

"I've heard that the prodigies from various states have emerged from seclusion, as have the top forces in the Central Province. It's a pity that this Law Contemplation Gathering doesn't allow for sparring among them; otherwise, it would definitely be a grand event of fierce competition." A young man spoke up, with no small amount of regret.

"Fighting and getting hurt is no fun. Just seeing all these geniuses gathered together is something to look forward to. Besides, I've long heard that Fairy Shen from the Myriad Laws Academy is not only exceptional in comprehension and talent, but also in appearance and temperament. I think this time I'll have a chance to see her in person." The young man, who looked like a handsome gentleman, smiled with a hint of anticipation.

"What's the use of just looking? You'll only be drooling over it without being able to get your hands on her. If you're so bold as to think like that, why don't you consider if there's any way to win over that Senior Sister Shen?" someone teased, glancing at you.

The young man, who looked like a prince, glanced at the other person:

"Some things are always just out of reach. People like you are naturally prone to daydreaming. Unfortunately, no matter how wonderful the dream, it's useless. You might as well appreciate it like I do."

The conversation of the group of people was overheard by Qin Han and Luo Zhen, who were not far away.

"Brother Qin, do you have feelings for this Senior Sister Shen?"

Luo Zhen looked at Qin Han and asked a question.

He had noticed some changes in Qin Han earlier and had a rough idea of what was going on.

Upon hearing this, Qin Han glanced at Luo Zhen and said:

"Go and gather some information about this Senior Sister Shen and bring it to me."

Luo Zhen nodded, not too surprised, and then got up and left.

After Luo Zhen left, Qin Han transmitted his voice to Hua Yunfan:

"Elder Hua, what do you think about me making Senior Sister Shen of the Myriad Laws Academy my target?"

He had already learned that while the Myriad Laws Academy might not be as strong as the Xiang Clan, its influence was definitely a cut above, making it a good place to go.

"Okay, but it will be difficult," Hua Yunfan said.

"This is not the Land of the Four Directions. The influence and resources of the powerful forces here are far more terrifying, and the difficulty of many things here is incomparable to what it used to be in the Land of the Four Directions."

After a pause, Hua Yunfan added:

"It's fine to make it a target, but it's best not to resort to any underhanded tactics."

There is no single, universally applicable method that can be applied to every situation.

"That's true."

Qin Han rarely agreed.

He had also learned about the Academy's strength, and knew that trying to play the hero and rescue the damsel in distress was probably not an option.

"Is there any technique or method that can increase one's charm, or make female cultivators more likely to fall for me after cultivation?" Qin Han then asked.

Hua Yunfan was silent for a moment:

"Yes, but those methods are only effective against ordinary female cultivators at best. They're unlikely to be effective against key juniors of this Academy."

"That's worth a try."

Qin Han said.

He would seize any opportunity, no matter how small.

A short while later, Luo Zhen returned and said:

"Brother Qin, I've obtained some relevant information, but there's some bad news."

"What?" Qin Han looked at him.

Luo Zhen:

"There are rumors that the Xiang Clan plans to arrange a marriage between their top prodigy Xiang Li, and Senior Sister Shen from this Academy. This Law Contemplation Gathering may involve this matter."

Qin Han frowned.

He had heard of Xiang Li before; he had a powerful background and was the Five Elements Sacred Physique of this generation, valued by many forces, and was even said to be able to overwhelm his peers.

This is clearly not good news.

However, Qin Han's expression quickly softened, and he said:

"Just planning?"

Luo Zhen nodded:

"What I've heard is just a possibility; nothing is certain about the two of them at the moment."

"Understood." Qin Han nodded, a confident smile appearing on his face.

Since the outcome is still uncertain, then...

Although Luo Zhen didn't know Qin Han's specific thoughts, he had a general idea and couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

"That's really arrogant!"
