"Senior Brother..."
Gu Shen smiled helplessly, "Stop teasing me."
He knew very well that he was still far, far away from being titled.
The Deep Sea Link, Transcendent Trial... In the Ghost Cage, Gu Shen didn't have much time to communicate with Chu Ling before the dream ended.
He was now eager to connect with Chu Ling and inquire about matters related to the Deep Water Zone.
"Little Gu, Han Dang's matter has been resolved," Senior Sister Luo suddenly said, "You don't have to worry about him targeting you in the future... I hypnotized him."
Gu Shen was taken aback.
This scene seemed familiar... Han Dang probably never thought that he would be hypnotized one day, right?
No wonder his review went so smoothly. The review team called him out in the middle, as if they were discussing some secret matter. It was very likely that Han Dang had submitted a report against him.
However, according to rumors, these two were evenly matched opponents... Senior Sister Luo hypnotizing Han Dang, could it be that she paid a great price?
Gu Shen focused his gaze and felt that Senior Sister Luo's mental power was still as stable as ever, and even stronger.
Like an immense towering mountain.
It didn't seem like she had paid any price.
Gu Shen stopped guessing. It wasn't something he could figure out.
He sincerely said, "Thank you, Senior Sister."
"Why are you saying these things? Since you call me Senior Sister, I will naturally protect you," Senior Sister Luo waved her hand, "What happened between you and Han Dang before is not important. I don't want to investigate or know what 'trump cards' you have. But when you're alone outside, you may encounter many 'Han Dangs'. There are few Transcendents stronger than Han Dang, but there are many with malicious intentions."
Senior Sister Luo paused for a moment and asked meaningfully, "Do you understand the meaning behind my words?"
Gu Shen's expression became serious.
This sentence, like a bucket of cold water, instantly woke him up.
Of course, he understood!
The reason why he had a close call during his confrontation with Han Dang in the orphanage was because Han Dang didn't have the intention to kill him.
If Han Dang was a lunatic, willing to do anything to kill him in the dream... then he would already be a corpse.
He was now somewhat grateful.
Fortunately, Han Dang regarded him as an ordinary person without Transcendent abilities.
"I... will remember it firmly."
Gu Shen kept Senior Sister's advice in his heart.
"Most Mental-type Transcendents can use the technique of 'hypnosis'. I can't guarantee that my hypnosis will be effective on Han Dang for a lifetime. Perhaps in the future, he will realize that his subconscious has been influenced," Senior Sister Luo said lightly, "Of course, judging from Han Dang's talent, this process will take at least three to five years... Just consider it as a preventive measure I took for you in advance."
As Gu Shen listened to the first part, he wiped off his sweat.
As he heard the latter part, he bitterly smiled.
So these two were not evenly matched opponents as he had thought... From Senior Sister's tone, they were not just a little different.
"I will be leaving Qinghe tomorrow."
Senior Sister Luo said, "Not only me, but Zhong Wei and Nanjin will also leave. Of course, you are no exception. Where is your next mission?"
"Mr. Xiao Cui hasn't said yet."
Gu Shen scratched his head, "He just said that a special plane will come to pick me up tomorrow and told me to wait for the message. It seems that someone has already arranged my mission, and it seems to be quite simple... It shouldn't be a high-risk task like containing a runaway Transcendent or searching for a seal."
"Mm..."
Senior Sister Luo looked meaningfully at Teacher Zhou JiRen.
Zhou JiRen leaned back in his seat with his eyes closed, pretending to be asleep.
"It doesn't matter where you go," Luo Er said lightly, "People like us, after awakening as Transcendents, are destined to be scattered. Little Gu, what's important is to stay alive."
"Staying alive is the simplest and most complicated state. It's not just about breathing and being able to open your eyes, it's not that simple."
Gu Shen saw the clear pupils in Senior Sister's eyes.
Each word seemed to slow down immensely.
"A runaway Transcendent is no different from a dead person. In these years, I have witnessed many tragedies... Those who chase after power, lose themselves on the path of life, and can never return." Her voice was soft, sounding somewhat sad, "So... for the next reunion, live well."
This sentence sounded familiar.
It was something Chu Ling had said to him.
He had never thought that such a simple word like "living" could have a deeper and more complex interpretation...
Another voice brought his thoughts back to reality.
"Cough, Little Gu, come! Let's have a drink!"
Mr. Zhong opened a bottle of wine and knocked it heavily, winking at Gu Shen, "Senior Sister's intention is actually good... She just tends to think of things in a bad way. We are all good and hardworking people, so of course, we will live well, right?"
At the same time.
He used his Transcendent ability to transmit a few words to Gu Shen alone.
"Do you still remember... the Transcendent event that caused Senior Sister's physical condition?"
"When we entered the Judgment Hall... there was a guy who had a personality very similar to yours. We were once close friends, fought side by side, and talked about everything. But in a Transcendent event, he burned himself out, unable to suppress his Transcendent power, and caused his own loss of control. It was Luo Er who executed him personally."
When Gu Shen heard these two sentences, his heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly understood... why Senior Sister would say such things to him.
After learning about this past event, he recalled the past ten days of being together.
When Senior Sister saw him for the first time, she immediately warned him about the danger of "Transcendent loss of control" and taught him the best breathing method, "Jingzhe," to stabilize his mental power... When his dream interpretation results came out just four hours ago, she was the first one to comfort him, saying that the road ahead was still long and he had to take it slowly.
Gu Shen knew that these words were her sincere comfort.
But perhaps... there was also a shadow of guilt from her past.
"Today is a day worth celebrating, why be so sad."
Mr. Shu stopped acting.He yawned, slowly opening his eyes: "Those who have died in past battles will not return, and it is their sacrifice that has brought us to this day... Nagano has erected monuments for them, we should always remember the pain and move forward, but we should not stay in the past, the dead cannot be resurrected. Qiye would be proud of your achievements today, I think he wouldn't want to see you immersed in sadness."
"I'm sorry..."
Sister Luo covered her forehead with one hand, she chuckled softly: "I drank a bit too much, so I inevitably thought of him... I just hope... he's still alive..."

"Alright."
Mr. Shu smiled and patted her shoulder, saying: "When parting, drink more to remember the laughter and forget the worries. You have to believe... we will meet again, we will gather again."
