Chapter 62 Identity

After coming to the martial arts school, Lu Yao followed Jin Yulong to the director office on the top floor.

Because he had been here once before, Lu Yao was not unfamiliar with this place. The calligraphy work, Ode to Gallantry, was still fresh in his memory.

"I know you have a lot of things to ask me now. Now you can ask." Mr. Jin poured two cups of water, one for Lu Yao, one for himself, and then sat down on the sofa opposite Lu Yao. "As long as the conditions permit, I will tell you."

Lu Yao indeed had a lot of things to ask Mr. Jin. Now that he had the opportunity, he didn't hesitate and asked his first question, "Mr. Jin, what realm are you in?"

"Because of some rare opportunities in the early years, I have now reached the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm." Jin Yulong said in a very calm tone.

However, his calm words were like thunder in Lu Yao's ears, instantly stirring up mixed emotions in Lu Yao's heart.

Jin Yulong, who didn't seem to be a powerful man, was actually in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm.

Although Li Jiang hadn't told Lu Yao about the abilities he would have when he was in the Golden Core Realm, Lu Yao knew that reaching this phase was not something that could be achieved merely by working hard. He had come to realize this point when he cultivated himself during the Body Refining Phase.

Not only did this require all kinds of miraculous pills, but it also required absolute talent.

Moreover, there were other things that shocked him.

He learned from Qian Hu that the realm of martial artists in the ancient martial arts system was divided into four ranks of Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. Although Qian Hu could have spiritual power wandering in his body, he was only at the peak stage of the Yellow Rank. Lu Yao once thought that Jin Yulong was at most one or two levels higher than Qian Hu, barely reaching the middle or early peak stage of the Profound Rank.

But in the end, Mr. Jin was not in the division of the ancient martial arts system at all. Instead, he was in the immortal cultivation system that Li Jiang had told Lu Yao about.

"Mr. Jin, can you explain to me the division of realms in the ancient martial arts system?" Lu Yao asked tentatively.

"Of course, I said that as long as the conditions permit, I'll tell you everything you ask me about. It's no big deal!" Jin Yulong continued to speak in a very cordial tone, "In the ancient martial arts system, we have four commonly-used ranks. From low to high, they are Yellow Rank, Profound Rank, Earth Rank and Heaven Rank."

After Jin Yulong finished speaking, he deliberately paused.

"But didn't you say that you were in the Golden Core Realm?" After hearing what Jin Yulong said, Lu Yao was even more confused.

Lu Yao had guessed right. In this world, ancient martial arts were really divided by the four ranks. But why did Jin Yulong say that he was in the Golden Core Realm? This was obviously contradictory!

"Because I am not an ancient martial arts practitioner. I am a cultivator!" Jin Yulong raised his voice a little.

This explained it!

But why did Mr. Jin choose to tell him this?

Could it be that Mr. Jin also knew Lu Yao's secret and realized that he was also a cultivator instead of an ancient martial arts practitioner?

Lu Yao did not dare to think further. He stared closely at Jin Yulong's every move with his eyes, and his body unconsciously moved a little further away from Mr. Jin.

"Huang Bingtian and I are friends. You can also regard the two of us as people who have similar identities!" Mr. Jin knew that after listening to his words, Lu Yao had already become wary of him, so he said another sentence.

Huang Bingtian was the first big shot that Lu Yao had come into contact with, and he was also Lu Yao's real savior. He was the old chief of the Xindu Military Region, the former big boss.

Since Mr. Jin and Huang Bingtian were people of similar identities, then Lu Yao could easily guess the identity of Mr. Jin.

Jin Yulong was also a member of the military. Since he could become friends with Huang Bingtian, and given the fact that Wang Ping, Buick and other people with military backgrounds respected Jin Yulong so much, it was clear that he had a high status in the military.

Mr. Jin knew that Lu Yao had a lot of guesses, so he continued, "And I am the late Chi Ying's teacher. Do you remember Chi Ying?"

After listening to Mr. Jin, Lu Yao immediately said, "Of course, Chi Ying was the captain of the Eagle Special Forces. My heart belonged to him. Without his heart, I would have been dead by now!"

"You don't know that Chi Ying has another identity!" Jin Yulong looked at Lu Yao and said.

"What identity?"

"Chi Ying was also a cultivator, and he was also a member of the country's Dragon Group." Jin Yulong said seriously.

Another cultivator!

The phrase "cultivator" was repeatedly mentioned today. Although Lu Yao was not as shocked as before, when he heard that Chi Ying was also a cultivator, he was still surprised.

Since Chi Ying was a member of the country's Dragon Group, could it be that there were still many cultivators in the Dragon Group?

Lu Yao felt that things were gradually developing beyond his imagination. If his guess was confirmed, wouldn't that mean that he was not the only cultivator in this world?

In Lu Yao's heart lived a cultivator who had lived countless eras, and under his guidance, Lu Yao had embarked on this path, but how did the others become cultivators?

"The Dragon Group is Shina's most mysterious military organization. Everyone in the group has ancient martial arts inheritance. Their identities are a top secret in the country, and ordinary people will never know them in their lifetime. Normally, they will appear in society with unexpected identities. Some people may be doctors, some may be soldiers, and some may appear in some foreign organizations." Jin Yulong took a sip of water and continued, "However, only Chi Ying was a cultivator. Captain of the Eagle Special Forces was only one of his many identities."

"Since the late Chi Ying's identities are a secret, why do you tell me?" Lu Yao could not help but ask curiously.

Lu Yao had vaguely felt that Jin Yulong's sudden appearance this time was not accidental. Moreover, after hearing Mr. Jin tell him so many top secrets, Lu Yao knew that there was obviously a reason that he could not guess.

"Because you have the same blood as his flowing in your body, so I feel you are close to me!" Jin Yulong continued. "Of course, this is not the most important thing!"

"What is the most important thing?"

"The most important thing is that I know Chi Ying's extraordinary heart has brought you many things that you do not expect, so I want to tell you more about him. At the same time, I also hope that you can complete some things that Chi Ying failed to do when he was alive, hence making your due contribution to the country." Jin Yulong said sincerely.

"How do you know that the changes in my body came from this heart?" Hearing this, Lu Yao finally understood why so many people from the military were paying attention to him.

However, how much did they know? Didn't Li Jiang once tell Lu Yao that he awakened only after the heart was put into Lu Yao's body?

Would they also know of Li Jiang's existence?

"Because Chi Ying was not the owner of this heart. He was just a beneficiary of this heart!" Jin Yulong was expressionless and seemed to be lost in his memories. "My master is the real owner of this heart."

Jin Yulong was Chi Ying's teacher, and this heart that used to be in Chi Ying and was now in his body actually came from Jin Yulong's master. This kind of mysterious relationship made Lu Yao a little confused.

A heart that had been transplanted could actually let the beneficiary inherit something in martial arts. This was simply not what a normal person should say.

"Mr. Jin, I don't quite understand what you mean."

Jin Yulong obviously did not have any ill intention. And just as he had said at the beginning, he would tell him everything if the conditions permitted. Therefore, as they talked, the vigilance in Lu Yao's heart slowly decreased, and he became more talkative.

"Before I met my master, I had never heard of cultivators or ancient martial arts practitioners. I only thought that those characters that could fly around were made up by writers. But ever since I followed my master, my worldview had been completely subverted..." Jin Yulong told Lu Yao about his past.

It turned out that Jin Yulong's master had entered a dangerous place by accident and coincidentally obtained an incomplete book of cultivation techniques. That was why he became a cultivator.

His extraordinary talent had to be admired. Relying on an incomplete book, he had painstakingly cultivated himself to reach the Nascent Soul Stage alone, and a strong infant appeared inside his body.

Although he was only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Stage, his life span had increased a lot.

After Jin Yulong's master reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul, he entered the mortal world to deal with trivial matters. At that time, he encountered Jin Yulong, who was about to die, and took Jin Yulong with him.

After Jin Yulong was saved, he always followed his master. Therefore, Jin Yulong saw how his master cultivated with his own eyes. Over time, with his master's explanations, he also embarked on the path of cultivation.

However, that book was after all incomplete. Later, his master was unable to make further progress. After a long time, a flaw appeared in his temperament. Gradually, as time passed, when his master was five hundred years old, he could not resist the invasion of the heart demon, and therefore he finally passed away.

Later, after nine years of mourning for his master, Jin Yulong also chose to be in the mortal world and began the legendary life of making great achievements.

With his skills, he quickly became an officer in the military. And as he gradually displayed his strength, he got promoted to higher positions. Finally, he became the instructor of the Dragon Group.

He also met Chi Ying after he entered the Dragon Group.

He remembered that one year, Chi Ying went abroad on a mission and did not return after a long time. As the instructor, Jin Yulong personally went abroad to find him.

Using some immortal arts for finding people, Jin Yulong quickly found the dying Chi Ying and successfully brought him back to the country.

On the night after returning to the country, Jin Yulong had a very strange dream.

In his dream, his master told him to transplant his heart into Chi Ying's body.

Jin Yulong didn't dare to hesitate in the slightest. He immediately followed his master's instructions. Because of Jin Yulong's various marvelous performances, his application was approved by the higher-ups.

After Chi Ying obtained this heart, he gradually changed.

He alone comprehended a lot of cultivation methods, and his strength kept increasing day by day.

Unfortunately, something happened to him. Because Chi Ying was a soldier, he valued the affairs of the country more. As his ability increased, his responsibility became greater and greater. Because he was involved in too many secular matters, his cultivation was delayed. Later, when he carried out another mission abroad, for some unknown reason, he died. At that time, he was barely at the early stage of the Qi Cultivation Phase.

Due to the special nature of his mission, Chi Ying's body was left abroad.

At that time, Jin Yulong ignored everyone's objections and once again went abroad alone, bringing Chi Ying's body back to the motherland, and he also took Chi Ying's heart away in spite of others' objections.

Later, it was also because of this matter that Jin Yulong was forced to resign from his position as the instructor of the Dragon Group and began to take care of some peripheral matters of the Dragon Group.

However, from beginning to end, he did not tell anyone who was related to Chi Ying about the story behind this heart.

However, many years later, Lu Yao became the first one to know about the whole thing.
