Adding Friends Can Make Me Stronger

Chapter 24: Check his body carefully again at night!

Meng Clan’s Chamber of Commerce.

The residence was a series of continuous pavilions, connected to each other, with towering courtyard walls, quite majestic.

At the gate, there were two guards at the seventh level of the Vein Tempering Realm.

“It looks just like I remember, nothing has changed.” Looking at the residence, Meng Changqing nodded slightly.

“Are you… the young clan master?” A somewhat uncertain voice rang out.

Meng Changqing looked in the direction of the sound.

One of the guards had already turned towards him, his expression full of astonishment and uncertainty.

And the other guard also realized it.

“Yeah.” Meng Changqing nodded slightly.

The clichéd scene he imagined did not happen. It seemed that his position as the young clan leader in the family was indeed quite high.

“It’s really the young clan master!” The two guards suddenly became somewhat excited.

In the family, although the previous talent was not the highest, his character was the best.

He was usually very approachable with these guards and servants.

This also led to a very good reputation for the previous person.

“Young clan master, let me lead your horse for you!”

One of them hurried forward.

The other rushed inside.

While running, he shouted.

“The young clan master is back!”

For a moment, the previously quiet Meng residence suddenly became lively.

Many clan members came out of their rooms, including the elders of the clan.

After all, it had been two years since the young clan master joined the Tai Xuan Sect.

There hadn’t been much news in the past two years.

When Meng Changqing stepped through the gate, hundreds of pairs of eyes looked over.

There were curiosity, joy, and various emotions.

“Greetings, young clan master,” everyone said respectfully.

“No need for formalities, everyone.”

Looking at the faces, Meng Changqing didn’t feel as unfamiliar as he had expected.

There was a sense of closeness in his bloodline.

“Changqing,” a surprised voice rang out.

Meng Changqing saw the crowd in front of him split in two, and a black figure quickly approached.

Wearing a straw hat and a black dress.

Tall figure, well-proportioned, exuding a mature charm.

She was the chairman of the Meng Chamber of Commerce.

She was also Meng Changqing’s aunt.

Gu Hongyu!

“Auntie.”

Looking at the black-clothed woman who had come close, Meng Changqing couldn’t help but smile.

This was the most important person in the previous person’s memory.

It could be seen from the instinct of the body.

Instinctively close.

Instinctively trusting.

If it weren’t for this woman, he wouldn’t have the life he has now.

Young clan master? Joining the Tai Xuan Sect? It would all just be a fantasy.

“You little rascal!

“You finally decided to come back!”

Because she was wearing a straw hat and had veil covering around her, Gu Hongyu’s face couldn’t be seen clearly, but her voice clearly conveyed a strong sense of joy.

As an outsider, she chose to stay in the Meng family mainly because of Meng Changqing.

Otherwise, she would have left long ago.

“I thought you had forgotten about your auntie and planned to stay at the Tai Xuan Sect forever.”

Gu Hongyu raised her hand and tapped Meng Changqing’s chest, but found it unusually hard, unlike before.

“Auntie, you’re exaggerating. Even if I forget someone, I wouldn’t forget you,” Meng Changqing said with a smile.

“Hmph, I bet you wouldn’t dare.” Gu Hongyu snorted lightly.

Then she realized and coughed lightly.

After all, they were in public, not in private.

As the chairman, she had to maintain a lofty demeanor.

“Young clan master, your clothes seem to be something only inner disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect are qualified to wear, right?” An elder suddenly spoke up.

Everyone’s attention immediately shifted to the clothes.

As one of the major forces in the Tianling Prefecture, people naturally paid attention to the situation of the Tai Xuan Sect.

Generally speaking, the clothes of outer disciples were relatively simple, while inner disciples would have many patterns and designs.

Cloud patterns on the cuffs, gold silk borders.

As for true disciples, their clothes would be even more noble and luxurious, and they might even have some unique functions.

“These are indeed the clothes of inner disciples!”

“Doesn’t that mean the young clan master is already a martial artist in the Aperture Connecting Realm?!”

As the words fell, exclamations continued to ring out.

Aperture Connecting Realm.

For people from these small places, that was already the level of a strong practitioner.

And he was still an inner disciple of the Tai Xuan Sect.

Although there was only one word of difference between outer and inner disciples, there was a world of difference between them.

Only by entering the inner sect could one be considered a formal disciple of the Tai Xuan Sect.

The Tai Xuan Sect, that was the place they dreamed of going.

“You.” Hearing this, Gu Hongyu suddenly reacted.

“Yes, I am now an inner disciple, at the fourth level of the Aperture Connecting Realm!”

Meng Changqing nodded.

A strong aura of cultivation suddenly surged forth.

It caused the veil around Gu Hongyu’s face to flutter, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.

“The fourth level of the Aperture Connecting Realm!”

The crowd was shocked once again.

They had thought that the young clan master had just stepped into this realm, but they didn’t expect that he had already made some progress in this realm.

“Young clan master, mighty!” After a brief silence, cheers erupted.

In Cloudwater City, martial artists in the Aperture Connecting Realm were considered top-notch.

For the Meng family, having one more martial artist in the Aperture Connecting Realm meant a significant increase in strength!

And the young clan master was still so young.

In the future, there would be a great opportunity to enter the Sea Cleaving Realm!

Once you entered the sea of enlightenment, you would truly be extraordinary, surpassing the secular world.

“Well done!” There was also excitement in Gu Hongyu’s voice.

No wonder she had felt abnormal strength when she tapped his chest just now.

So he had already stepped into the Aperture Connecting Realm.

However, she still had doubts deep down.

Meng Changqing had been raised by her since childhood, and she knew his situation very well. She didn’t know every hair on his head, but she was close.

With his talent, he shouldn’t have been able to step into the Aperture Connecting Realm in such a short time.

But it wasn’t suitable to delve into it now.

She would check his body carefully again at night.
