**My Senior Brother is Super Strong - Chapter 24**
Lu Chen came to Juxian Restaurant again.
Wang Yao came up to greet him, "Senior Brother Lu!"
"Are you here to visit Senior Sister Xiao?"
Lu Chen waved his hand and said, "No, just find a place for me. No need for a private room, just outside."
"Oh, I can't stay at Lingxiao Peak these days. People come here every day. It's so annoying."
"Isn't it just a small breakthrough and becoming a Nascent Soul stage master? What's all the fuss about?"
Wang Yao's face turned red, and he felt very uncomfortable.
He wanted to complain about Lu Chen.
What is a small breakthrough?
What's all the fuss about?
Some people are stuck in this realm all their lives and will never reach the Nascent Soul stage.
He was still in the Qi Refining stage right now.
Wang Yao ran away quickly. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would end up complaining about Lu Chen.
Lu Chen sat in the hall and soon saw his junior sister Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye had been working here for almost a month.
Compared to the beginning, Xiao Ye had changed a lot now.
With a smile on her face, she greeted the guests warmly.
Faced with verbal teasing from some guests, Xiao Ye dealt with it easily and resolved it smoothly.
That's about it, Lu Chen thought to himself.
When Xiao Ye first came to Lingxiao Peak, her face still had a childish innocence.
Although she wasn't as arrogant and domineering as the eldest lady, she still exhibited the pampered demeanor of a favored daughter.
Working here and getting in touch with the hustle and bustle of the market had changed her mentality, and this change was exactly what Lu Chen needed.
Xiao Ye was the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, born with a golden spoon in her mouth.
She had not experienced the harsh trials and training of society and was not yet mature enough in her thinking.
In Lu Chen's view, to practice cultivation, you must first cultivate your mind.
As long as your mentality is correct and stable, you will achieve twice the results with half the effort during your training.
Xiao Ye wasn't a genius, but she was not mediocre either. Her talent was acceptable.
Let her experience life first, then allow her to practice; it would only benefit her and not cause harm.
Lu Chen practiced in the time room of the ring. Initially, he couldn't stand it for the first day or two.
Over time, it slowly progressed to ten days, a month, several months, and then a year.
Every time he completed his practice, he felt a sense of emptiness and the weight of the world.
Therefore, after practicing, he always had to lie down and relax.
Otherwise, he would go crazy.
"There is no way; who made his senior brother a pervert?"
"If you want to be his junior brother or sister, you must maintain a stable mentality; otherwise, you will easily collapse."
Lu Chen whispered to himself.
Ji Yan was amazing, talented, and hardworking.
Being a fellow disciple of such an individual was very stressful.
They would also frequently suffer setbacks.
Without a stable and strong Taoist heart, it was only a matter of time before one would collapse.
When Xiao Ye first arrived, she struggled to hold on in that first month.
Lu Chen noticed this, so he asked her to stop practicing temporarily and let her work here instead.
This was to cultivate her Tao heart.
Xiao Ye's mentality had almost recovered.
Thus, after having a meal, Lu Chen sought out Fang Xiao.
Upon seeing Lu Chen, Fang Xiao smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, you said you would bring Mr. Ji Yan to my place for a meal."
"Until now, I haven't seen Mr. Ji Yan yet."
"Could it be that Mr. Lu, a nobleman, is too forgetful and has forgotten this matter?"
Ji Yan had now made headlines in Qizhou.
Everyone marveled at this young genius.
He became a powerful person in the Nascent Soul stage before turning thirty.
The future looked bright.
When people like Ji Yan visited her Juxian Restaurant for a meal, it would establish her restaurant as the number one establishment in Qingyun City.
Lu Chen replied, "No hurry, no hurry; senior brother is not free now."
"Let's talk about it later when he has time."
"Okay, I hope Mr. Lu won't lie to me."
Fang Xiao also understood that Ji Yan was too busy to escape now. She said this mainly to strengthen her relationship with Lu Chen.
As Ji Yan's junior brother, establishing a connection with Lu Chen, and potentially with Ji Yan, would only benefit her.
Moreover, curiosity lingered in Fang Xiao's eyes.
The man before her also had considerable strength.
She just didn't understand why he was so low-key.
Unlike Ji Yan, who was under the limelight, Lu Chen remained chillingly low-profile.
Even as Ji Yan's junior brother, he was still relatively unknown.
Logically speaking, a celebrity like Ji Yan would have everything around him dug up and explored.
But Lu Chen had managed to escape that scrutiny.
He was like a transparent figure, invisible despite being next to Ji Yan.
If Fang Xiao hadn't happened to see Lu Chen's methods once, she would have overlooked him entirely.
However, even with this knowledge, she didn't dare to expose it. She still wanted to live a few more years.
Then, Fang Xiao asked Lu Chen, "Mr. Lu, are you coming to see me for anything?"
Lu Chen said, "I need to take my junior sister back. Boss, please help me settle my junior sister's wages."
"So soon? It hasn't even been a month yet."
Lu Chen responded, "It's just a day or two difference."
"But if you say it takes a month, she should stay for a month."
"It's just a few days earlier. It's hard for me to calculate her wages."
The main reason behind letting Xiao Ye work here was for her to establish a connection with Lu Chen.
With Xiao Ye here, Lu Chen occasionally stopped by.
After a few back-and-forth visits, wouldn't everyone become more familiar with each other?
Having a friendship with a master like Lu Chen was certainly not a bad thing, after all.
Therefore, Fang Xiao didn't want Xiao Ye to leave.
However, Lu Chen perceived these words and stared at Fang Xiao warily.
"Boss, are you trying to deduct my junior sister's wages?"
"Don't you feel embarrassed? A little girl works here and earns some hard-earned money, and you want to cut her wages."
"Boss, you can't be so black-hearted."
Fang Xiao: "..."
