"Hall Master, are you here too?"
What Long Chen didn't expect was that the Hall Master was also here.
"Ahem, I'm just passing by and wanted to greet the Lord of the Pure Courtyard." The Hall Master cleared his throat and said, though he certainly couldn't say he was here to feel wronged.
"Greetings, Lord Jingyuan." Long Chen hurriedly saluted the old sweeper.
Lord Jingyuan smiled slightly and said, "The battle with the Nether Dragon Amaterasu was truly spectacular to me. "
Lord Jingyuan, you flatter me." Long Chen hurriedly replied humbly.
Long Chen arrived. The old sweeper placed the broom on the steps and slowly sat down on the flowerbed nearby, saying,
"You're just here. I have something to tell you."
"Kid, I'm all ears."
Long Chen hurriedly replied, and at the same time sat down on the ground. The Hall Master followed suit, but even as the Hall Master, he could only sit as a disciple, not as tall as the old sweeper.
"This matter concerns the Underworld Emperor. You need to be careful." The old sweeper said.
"Isn't the Nether Emperor in Nirvana? Long Chen probably wouldn't attract its attention yet! The
Hall Master's expression was solemn; he knew much more about the Nether Emperor than Long Chen did.
"Originally, with Long Chen's cultivation and strength, it wasn't enough to alert the Nether Emperor in Nirvana, but Long Chen was deeply entangled in the karma between him and the Nether Emperor.
His beloved was the daughter of the Nether Emperor, who forcibly erased the Nether Emperor's mark by Long Chen. The Nether Dragon Amiterasu, the son of the Nether Emperor, was nearly killed by Long Chen and had to sacrifice himself. The old sweeper said slowly.
"With these two causes and effects, it's unlikely they'll attract the attention of the Underworld Emperor in Nirvana." The Hall Master said.
"His karma isn't limited to just these two things. Long Chen, in the underworld, did you befriend someone?" The old sweeper said.
Long Chen was stunned. The first people he thought of were Leng Yueyan and Ming Cangyue, but then, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
"You mean Brother Wutian?" Long Chen's heart skipped a beat.
"Did he ever say what his background is?" The old sweeper said.
"All I know is that his true form is the Santong Swallowing Sky Beast, a royal family member of the Nether Clan... Wait, the royal family of the Nether Clan—the Nether Emperor..." Long Chen's face changed dramatically. If Brother Wutian is a descendant of the Nether Empress, will the two of them face off on the battlefield in the future?
Thinking of Wu Tian's loyalty to him, treating him like his own brother, Long Chen's heart suddenly became unsettled at the thought of this possibility.
Seeing Long Chen's face change dramatically, the old sweeper shook his head and said, "You don't need to worry. The Three Heaven-Swallowing Beasts are indeed from the Underworld royal family, but the Underworld royal family is not limited to just one clan."
The Nirvana Nether Emperor is a mortal enemy of the Santong Swallowing Sky Beast clan. Back then, the current Nether Emperor colluded with the You Clan and, through despicable means, overthrew the throne of the Santong Swallowing Sky Beast clan. In other words, it was a scheme to cross the throne.
Since you are close to Wutian, you naturally become involved in his karma, so it's easy to attract the Underworld Emperor's attention. Upon
hearing that the Nether Emperor and Wu Tian were enemies, Long Chen's anxious heart instantly relaxed. In his heart, Wu Tian was like a big brother, caring for him with utmost care. They talked about everything, wishing they had met too late. If he had met Wu Tian's swordsmen, Long Chen would be heartbroken.
"However, the Nether Emperor is in Nirvana. Unless absolutely necessary, I would never use my divine sense to transmit a decree. That would be very disadvantageous to him. Was it really worth it for him?" The Hall Master asked in confusion.
"You have to understand, who killed the Nether Emperor back then to enter Nirvana?" The old sweeper said.
The Hall Master's mouth dropped open, staring at Long Chen in shock, suddenly realizing something.
The old sweeper continued, "Long Chen, you don't need to worry about the Nether Emperor personally dealing with you, but you must be careful of that Nether Dragon Amaterasu." "
Watch out for him?"
"Yes, it's very likely he will return with the will of the Nether Emperor and appear as the true son of the Nether Emperor. At that time, he won't be the Nether Dragon Amitharu he is now. You need to be mentally prepared and never let your guard down." The old sweeper said.
Long Chen smiled slightly and said, "As long as the Nether Emperor doesn't come in person, I'm not afraid. Next time I encounter him, I'll twist his head off and make him pay the price for betraying the Dragon Clan." "
When he heard that the Nether Emperor and Wu Tian were not together, Long Chen completely regained his confidence. As for anything else, he was never afraid.
So what about the power of the Nether Emperor? He had the mysterious Golden Lotus Seed given to him by Aunt Gong, which could resist the power of the Nether Emperor. When the time came, Long Chen would fight with real skill, fearing no one.
"Hahaha, well done, I just like your attitude."
Seeing Long Chen's confidence and his threat to kill the Nether Dragon Amaterasu and purge the dragon clan's rebellion, the Hall Master was especially pleased by this tone. He patted Long Chen firmly on the shoulder to show his appreciation.
The old sweeper continued, "Also, let me tell you something: Minglong Tianzhao is not the first to awaken the Mandate of Heaven. "
I understand." Long Chen nodded and said.
The old sweeper was slightly moved: "You actually know?" Long
Chen laughed and said, "I'm just guessing, but I think it's almost certainly true." "
That actually surprised me." The old sweeper smiled faintly and said.
Long Chen smiled and said, "It's simple. None of my close female friends showed up, especially the one who loves to join the fun. I knew that Minglong Tianzhao was definitely not the first to awaken his destiny."
The reason the Minglong clan spread the news immediately after Minglong Amaterasu awakened his destiny was actually a sign of insecurity.
They are recruiting more quasi-Destiny Warriors to strengthen the Nether Dragon clan, while the truly proud races have no interest in courting outsiders.
The reason the Minglong clan made such a big announcement was precisely to expose their weakness: the Minglong clan had too few quasi-Destiny Destined Ones, so they needed to win over those from other clans.
If the Minglong clan had thousands of Quasi-Destiny Practitioners, they definitely wouldn't have spread the news. Instead, through Minglong Tianzhao's efforts, they would help more clansmen awaken their Destiny. The
old sweeper nodded and said, "That's impressive. It's rare that at such a young age, you already possess such wisdom." Long
Chen said, "Actually, it's nothing special. Right now, the truly powerful people haven't even surfaced."
Only those who are dissatisfied with one bottle and half a bottle are left empty will come out and jump around like clowns.
I fought the Dark Dragon Amaterasu before my friends didn't arrive. Clearly, they were all at a critical moment and didn't show up.
One or two didn't come, which was nothing, but not a single one showed up, which said the truth. It also meant that countless true prodigies were in seclusion. "
The human race's schemes are indeed terrifying. I never thought of so much." The Hall Master shrugged and said.
"By the way, Long Chen, what brings you here to see Lord Jingyuan?" The Hall Master suddenly asked.
It must be said, the Hall Master cultivatesAlthough the rank is high, his emotional intelligence is not great. If Long Chen had any secret matters and wanted to discuss them privately with the Pure Courtyard Master, wouldn't that be awkward to ask?
Long Chen said seriously,
"Since the Dean is not here, I have no choice but to consult with the Pure Courtyard Lord. I want to take over the Xuanling Realm."
