Chapter 115 Sun and Moon's Strongest Backer
Wang Chen hadn't expected Kong Deming to offer to take him as a disciple.
It should be known that Kong Deming's status and importance in the Sun Moon Empire even surpassed the Emperor; he was truly at the pinnacle.
Wang Chen naturally wouldn't refuse. Rejecting would bring no benefits and might even be harmful, while accepting would bring immense advantages. With Kong Deming backing him, Wang Chen could practically walk sideways in the Sun Moon Empire from now on.

Moreover, he could also learn Kong Deming's powerful soul tools, enhancing his own strength. In the future, when he needed to add soul rings and hunt soul beasts, it would become much easier. As long as Kong Deming took action, unless it was a fierce beast with over 500,000 years of cultivation, it would be a piece of cake.
Wang Chen bowed respectfully and said, "Disciple Wang Chen greets Master!"
Kong Deming's face revealed a satisfied smile. He stroked his beard and nodded, saying, "Good, good! From today onwards, you are my disciple, Kong Deming."
Subsequently, Kong Deming took out a silver-white badge from his storage soul tool and handed it to Wang Chen.
"This is the Palace Enshrinement Hall's Hall Master token. With this token, you can freely enter and exit the Palace Enshrinement Hall. If you encounter any problems, you can also seek help from the Enshrinements of the Palace Enshrinement Hall. Keep it safe."
Wang Chen accepted the badge and discovered that it was engraved with a silver moon. It felt cool to the touch and contained special secret orders, clearly used to enter and exit various places in the Palace Enshrinement Hall.
Wang Chen immediately stored the token in his storage soul tool.
Seeing Wang Chen accept the badge, Kong Deming looked at the sun outside the window, which was about to set. He then said, "It's getting late today. Go back and rest first. Come here again early tomorrow morning, and I will officially begin teaching you."
Wang Chen respectfully bowed and said, "Yes, Master. Disciple takes his leave."
After saying that, Wang Chen withdrew from the Silver Moon Hall. After exiting the Silver Moon Hall, Wang Chen found that Xu Tianzhen was still waiting for him outside.
Seeing Wang Chen come out, Xu Tianzhen immediately greeted him with a beaming smile and asked, "Teacher Xiao Chen, what did Elder Kong want with you?"
Wang Chen smiled and replied, "Elder Kong has accepted me as his disciple."
Upon hearing this, Xu Tianzhen's eyes widened instantly, and she said in surprise, "Elder Kong accepted you as his disciple?!"
Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and asked, "What, don't you believe it?"
Xu Tianzhen quickly said, "I believe it, why wouldn't I believe it. Teacher Xiao Chen, you're really amazing."
But in an instant, a sly smile appeared on Xu Tianzhen's face. "Teacher Xiao Chen, you are my teacher, so wouldn't that make Elder Kong my grandmaster?"
Wang Chen couldn't help but chuckle at her words. He had only casually taught Xu Tianzhen a small trick, and she had already latched onto him as her teacher.
Xu Tianzhen cheered, "It's almost evening, Teacher Xiao Chen, don't go home for dinner. Come on, I'll take you to taste the craftsmanship of the royal chefs."
After speaking, Xu Tianzhen pulled Wang Chen away. Wang Chen could only follow along and sample the taste of the imperial cuisine.
鈥?鈥?鈥?,"The news of Silver Moon Douluo Kong Deming accepting Wang Chen as a disciple spread like a tornado.
First, it was the Enshrinements in the Palace Enshrinement Hall. They were the first to learn of this news.
Then, they began to transform into small tornadoes, blowing towards their relatives and friends. Then, step by step, it swept through the entire Mingdu. Everyone who received the news was shocked by this heavy news.
To some extent, this news was no less significant than the establishment of the Crown Prince's selection.
鈥?鈥?鈥?,"In the evening, Mingde Hall.
Jing Hongchen, who had just finished his busy work, leaned back on the sofa. Upon learning that Wang Chen had been accepted as a personal disciple by Elder Kong, he couldn't help but sigh, and a look of envy appeared in his eyes.
In the Sun Moon Empire, Kong Deming's status was so high that it was unimaginable. The respect and admiration of many soul tool masters for Kong Deming even exceeded that of the Emperor.
Every soul tool master could see a towering mountain on their path forward, and that mountain was Kong Deming.
Even the many ninth-level soul tool masters who held high positions and stood above countless soul tool masters could only look up at Kong Deming from halfway up the mountain, and they couldn't help but want to become Kong Deming's personal disciples.
But unfortunately, to this day, no ninth-level soul tool master had been valued by Kong Deming. At most, they would receive some guidance.
Jing Hongchen said enviously, "Wang Chen has actually become Elder Kong's personal disciple. In Mingdu in the future, I'm afraid even ninth-level soul tool masters will have to give him some leeway."
Immediately afterward, Jing Hongchen stood up from the sofa and planned to contact other ninth-level soul tool masters to meet Elder Kong tomorrow to congratulate him on his happy acquisition of a disciple.
Jing Hongchen thought to himself, "Recently, I heard news from the palace that His Majesty wants to betroth Princess Tianzhen to Wang Chen.
This kid Wang Chen is quite cunning. Knowing that the consequences of rejecting would be unpredictable, he didn't refuse. Moreover, he gets along very well with Princess Tianzhen.
Furthermore, he hasn't come to find Meng'er these days, which shows he knows how to avoid suspicion."
Jing Hongchen's feelings towards Wang Chen were very complicated, with admiration, helplessness, and even some resentment.
He resented that Wang Chen was previously Jing Hongchen's grandson-in-law, but now he had become the Emperor's son-in-law.
However, Jing Hongchen felt fortunate that he hadn't revealed the news that Wang Chen was his grandson-in-law in the beginning, for fear that others would know that Wang Chen's talent and strength were too outstanding. Otherwise, it would be awkward now.
However, thinking of his granddaughter, Jing Hongchen suddenly felt a headache.
He hasn't told his granddaughter the news that Wang Chen is going to become the Emperor's son-in-law yet.
The reason for not telling her is that he is afraid that his granddaughter will not be able to think straight and do something stupid. Therefore, he has arranged a large number of learning and cultivation tasks for Meng Hongchen these days, so that she can study hard at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Tool Master Academy.
The reason is that her cultivation progress is behind her brother Xiao Hongchen, and she must make up for it.
But he can hide it for a while, but he can't hide it forever. When the Emperor issues an edict to bestow a marriage, his granddaughter will definitely know.
Jing Hongchen only hopes that this matter will not be too much of a blow to his granddaughter at that time. However, he can't do anything about it.
Who asked Wang Chen's talent and strength to be too monstrous? Even if he was the Hall Master of Mingde Hall and a ninth-level soul tool master, he couldn't keep Wang Chen in his hands.
鈥?鈥?鈥?鈥?鈥?,"In the bedroom of the deposed Crown Prince, Xu Tianran's residence.
"Wang Chen has become Elder Kong's personal disciple? No! ! ! This is not true, this is not true."
Crackle, crackle, crackle, all the furnishings, furniture, and decorations in the entire room were smashed into ruins by the angry Xu Tianran.
After venting his anger, Xu Tianran sat on the wheelchair with a dazed expression.
These days, bad news has been coming one after another, making Xu Tianran feel somewhat desperate.
Originally, he had discussed with the people of the Holy Spirit Cult to have the people of the Holy Spirit Cult kill all of the Second Prince Xu Tianyu's supporters, so that Xu Tianyu would definitely not be able to become the Crown Prince.
But who would have thought that the Holy Spirit Church, which he saw as powerful and full of titled Douluo experts, would actually fail? Not only did they fail to cripple the Wang family, but Wang Chen of the Wang family actually killed them instead.
Upon learning that the Wang family, who supported the Second Prince, had such a monstrous talent like Wang Chen, Xu Tianran felt that things were going badly.
As expected, things turned out as he had predicted. A few days ago, his father issued an edict to make the Second Prince the Crown Prince. Then, Wang Chen, this monstrous talent, even became the personal disciple of Old Kong.
Xu Tianran was very clear that, with the current situation, it was almost impossible to remove the Second Prince from the position of Crown Prince, unless the Second Prince suddenly died or was killed.
Otherwise, if he wanted to bring down the Second Prince, he had to eliminate his supporter, the Wang family. But how difficult would it be to eliminate the Wang family?
Wang Chen was a top expert who could kill Titled Douluos. Now, he had even become the personal disciple of Kong Deming, Old Kong. The difficulty of eliminating Wang Chen was as high as ascending to heaven.
At least, Xu Tianran knew that with his own strength and influence, he could never deal with Wang Chen. It would be quite easy for Wang Chen to deal with him.
At this time, Xu Tianran had only one thought in his mind, and that was that he could only rely on the Holy Spirit Church. If the people of the Holy Spirit Church could not get rid of Wang Chen, then the outcome of this battle for the throne would be decided.

Xu Tianran was hysterical, his face twisted, and crazy thoughts emerged one after another. "Doesn't the Holy Spirit Church have two Limit Douluo experts? Why don't you take action? Why don't you take action and kill Wang Chen!"
鈥?鈥?鈥?,"Sunset Water Alliance Headquarters, Conference Hall.
Dark Spirit Douluo Shen Kang sat expressionlessly on the chair. Opposite Shen Kang was Zhong Liwu, the leader of the Holy Spirit Church.
Below the two of them were the Second Elder and Third Elder of the Holy Spirit Church. Both of them were evil soul masters with Titled Douluo cultivation, and they were also ninth-level soul engineers.
They now concurrently serve as the Alliance Master and Deputy Alliance Master in the Sunset Water Alliance, managing the affairs of the Sunset Water Alliance.
Zhong Liwu said to Shen Kang in a cold voice, "Shen Kang, what is Wang Chen's recent situation? Are there any flaws?"
As the leader of the Holy Spirit Church, Zhong Liwu was extremely concerned about the Holy Spirit Church.
After learning that Wang Chen, a genius who could threaten the balance between the Holy Spirit Church and the Sun Moon Empire, had become Kong Deming's disciple, Zhong Liwu's desire to kill Wang Chen became even more intense.
At the same time, he also had a worry, that is, what if Kong Deming accompanied Wang Chen to hunt soul beasts and absorb soul rings after Wang Chen broke through the bottleneck?
If that was the case, wouldn't he have to ask Mother and Uncle Long to take action together to kill Wang Chen under Kong Deming's protection?
But if that was the case, how could Kong Deming let it go? At that time, the Holy Spirit Church might have to start a war with the Sun Moon Empire.
For a time, Zhong Liwu couldn't help but worry.
Shen Kang sat on the chair, facing the inquiry from Zhong Liwu, the leader of the Holy Spirit Church, his expression indifferent.
As a Consecrated Elder of the Consecration Hall, he was not under Zhong Liwu's command, and he did not even have much awe for Zhong Liwu, the leader of the Holy Spirit Church.
In terms of strength, although Zhong Liwu was a little stronger than him, he could not catch him if he wanted to run.
The reason why he was here was entirely because of Long Xiaoyao's order.
Shen Kang said lightly, with a hint of casualness in his tone. "Wang Chen has been active in Mingdu recently and shows no signs of leaving. His activities are also very regular, a two-point line, either at the Wang family or going to the palace, without revealing any flaws.
These two places are heavily guarded, and even Limit Douluo experts can hardly sneak in silently.
Moreover, he has just become Kong Deming's personal disciple, and he will most likely be studying with Kong Deming during this period, and should not leave Mingdu in a short time."
Zhong Liwu frowned upon hearing Shen Kang's answer, obviously dissatisfied with this result.
He originally wanted to hear if Wang Chen had any flaws, so he could secretly find an opportunity to kill him and be done with it.
But who would have thought that Wang Chen was still a ascetic cultivator, and he basically never left home on weekdays.
Zhong Liwu didn't have any good ideas for a while, and finally could only say to Shen Kang, "Closely monitor Wang Chen. Once Wang Chen reveals a flaw, take action directly if you have the opportunity, and report immediately if you don't."
Shen Kang nodded and didn't say anything more. He stood up, turned and left the conference hall.
After Shen Kang left, Zhong Liwu's face became even more gloomy. He looked at the Second Elder and Third Elder below and said in a cold voice: "You continue to be active in the Sunset Water Alliance, obtaining resources for the Holy Spirit Church, and at the same time pay close attention to the movements in Mingdu."
The Second Elder and Third Elder nodded quickly in response, not daring to be negligent in the slightest. They knew very well that Zhong Liwu was in a very bad mood now, and they couldn't afford to offend him.
Zhong Liwu waved his hand, signaling them to retreat. After everyone had left, he sat alone in the conference hall, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
"Wang Chen鈥?To kill you, do I really have to ask Mother and Uncle Long to take action?" Zhong Liwu murmured in a low voice.
鈥?鈥?鈥?鈥?鈥?鈥?鈥?鈥?,"Wang Chen's home.
After finishing the imperial meal and returning from the palace, Wang Chen returned home. As soon as he entered the house, he was greeted by the little angel Ye Guyi, who exuded a strong low pressure all over her body.
Ye Guyi looked at Wang Chen's return, feeling both angry and aggrieved. When she woke up, she found that Wang Chen was gone. When she asked Ju Zi, she also said she didn't know, which made Ye Guyi feel uneasy and almost shed tears.
Ye Guyi had been standing at the door waiting for Wang Chen all afternoon. At this time, she finally saw Wang Chen, and the grievances in her heart burst out all at once. She immediately asked, crying, "Wang Chen, where have you been? Wuwuwu."
Wang Chen looked at Ye Guyi's lovable appearance and felt guilty. He knew that he was at fault, after all, he had just taken her body, and the next day he disappeared. It would be strange if Ye Guyi wasn't angry or aggrieved.
Wang Chen explained softly, "Guyi, this morning the emperor asked me to enter the palace to see Silver Moon Douluo Old Kong. The imperial decree cannot be violated.
So I had to go to the palace鈥?Then, after some examination, Old Kong asked me to be his personal disciple, so I only came back now."
Ye Guyi was not an unreasonable person either. As an angel martial soul, she was originally kind-hearted. After listening to Wang Chen's explanation, the anger and grievances in her heart suddenly reduced by half.
Seeing that Ye Guyi's anger had subsided a lot, Wang Chen quickly seized the opportunity to walk to Ye Guyi's side and hug Ye Guyi in his arms.
Wang Chen stroked Ye Guyi's back and comforted, "Okay, okay, don't cry, don't cry, it's my fault, it won't look good if you cry again."
"It won't look good if it doesn't look good, you don't like me at all, wuwuwu." Ye Guyi cried while punching Wang Chen's chest with her little pink fists.
Wang Chen looked at Ye Guyi, who was crying even more as he comforted her, and felt a headache. In the end, he directly kissed Ye Guyi's lips, which gradually made the crying disappear.
