Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy

Salas bowed deeply and respectfully responded, "Salas understands, sir, until we meet again." After speaking, he turned and led a group of Law Enforcers to swiftly evacuate the scene. The Law Enforcers acted in an orderly and well-trained manner, and for a moment, only the sound of their departing footsteps remained on the street.

The onlookers watched this group of Law Enforcers come and go like the wind, all marveling and sighing in admiration. They engaged in lively discussions, praising Li Qing's authority and influence.

Seeing Salas leave, a trace of relief finally appeared on Carefree Meng Lan's face. She turned to Luo Chen, her eyes glistening with a hint of mischievousness and familiarity, "It seems we've really encountered someone important this time."

Luo Chen also showed a relaxed smile, secretly relieved that this incident was resolved so smoothly. He looked at Li Qing, his eyes full of gratitude and respect.

Carefree Meng Lan turned to Li Qing again, a touch of elegance and wisdom reflected in her smile, "You must be the esteemed Li Qing, right? Carefree Meng Lan has long admired your reputation."

Li Qing chuckled, his smile revealing a sense of detachment and transcendence, "Miss Ling Yue flatters me, Li Qing is just an ordinary person."

"An ordinary person?" Carefree Meng Lan chuckled softly, shaking her head, "Li Qing's illustrious name has spread throughout the Divine Fire Empire, who doesn't know of it?"

"Miss Ling Yue overpraises me." Li Qing maintained that gentle smile, as if no amount of praise could shake his heart.

Carefree Meng Lan was stirred, naturally putting her arm around Luo Chen's shoulders, looking at Li Qing with a smile, "Sir, how do you know this newly recognized brother of mine?"

Luo Chen's body stiffened, he didn't expect Carefree Meng Lan to ask that suddenly. He looked at her with a hint of doubt, only to see a sly light flickering in her eyes, as if hinting him not to speak.

Li Qing watched the interaction between Carefree Meng Lan and Luo Chen, a knowing smile flashed in his eyes, "Me? That was many years ago..." His voice was deep and magnetic, seemingly carrying a sense of time's passage.

"Back then, I was just a fledgling youth, and encountered danger during an expedition. It was young brother Luo Chen who saved my life." Li Qing said slowly, his gaze revealing memories and emotions about the past.

"Is that so." Carefree Meng Lan nodded, her smile even more radiant, "It seems my brother is quite a figure." Saying this, she gently patted Luo Chen on the shoulder, her eyes full of admiration and encouragement.

Luo Chen felt a bit embarrassed by the words of Carefree Meng Lan and Li Qing, scratching his head and smiling sheepishly, "It was just a coincidence..."

"Miss Ling Yue." Li Qing suddenly turned to Carefree Meng Lan, asking seriously, "Has the Ling Yue Family chosen the members for the special training this time?"

Carefree Meng Lan was taken aback, then smiled, "Not decided yet, why do you ask about this, sir?" A trace of doubt flashed in her heart, not understanding why Li Qing suddenly cared about the Ling Yue Family's special training.

Li Qing shook his head, his expression indifferent as he said, "Nothing, just asking casually." His gaze turned to Luo Chen again, "Young brother, we really are fated. We meet wherever we go."

Luo Chen also smiled, "Yes, Sir Li Qing, I didn't expect to meet you here either." His heart was filled with gratitude and joy. He knew that today, escaping danger was thanks to Li Qing's help. What made him even happier was realizing that his bond with Li Qing seemed to be deepening. This wondrous fate filled him with expectation and longing for the future.

Luo Chen gently nodded, a slight smile on his lips, and said, "Yes, Mengyifei City doesn't seem as big as they say." His words carried an attitude of detachment, as if this bustling city was not impressive in his eyes.

"Hahaha, well said..." Li Qing suddenly burst into laughter, his eyes shining with appreciation. He deeply looked at Luo Chen, as if seeing something special in this young man. "What a phrase 'Mengyifei City doesn't seem as big as they say.' Seas apart, true friends feel close, I never thought a young lad like you would understand so deeply."

Luo Chen smiled wryly in his heart, realizing that Li Qing misunderstood his meaning, but he didn't explain and just nodded along with Li Qing's words.

"Young brother, I believe with our fated connection, we'll surely meet again somewhere in this world. When that time comes, don't forget me~" Li Qing's face was beaming with a warm smile, as if he already considered Luo Chen a kindred spirit.
