Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques Chapter 696 - 237: Tens of Thousands Gather at the Heavenly

Occasionally appearing, they would never interfere in the affairs of the Xiao Family.

Who would know who "Lu Changsheng" is?

However, the elders and Divine Power Martial Artists of the Xiao Family were different.

They had heard of Lu Changsheng.

He was even widely renowned!

"Lu... Lu Changsheng?"

"The one who, with a Divine Power Body, defied and slashed a Martial Saint, Lu Zun?"

"No, he’s no longer Lu Zun. He is now... Lu Saint! Lu Changsheng has already forged a Sacred Body and ascended to beco a Martial Saint!"

"Indeed, this news just reached Xiao City not long ago. It is absolutely true. The Sacred Body forged by Lu Saint is rooted in Infinite Divine Power. Once it was successfully forged, its power was beyond imagination."

"Ancestor, we must not be enemies with him at any cost..."

The head of the Xiao Family was filled with endless fear.

Lu Changsheng!

The terrifying Lu Saint of the Heavenly Sect in the Holy Land!

So people had even begun to believe that Lu Changsheng might be among the most extraordinary of Human Saints.

Across the entire Holy Land, Martial Saints who could rival Lu Saint could be counted on one hand.

Such a Martial Saint had only recently been a topic of conversation for them—after all, he was irrelevant to the Xiao Family.

He was like a figure from the legends.

But who would have expected that this legendary figure would now arrive at the Xiao Family?

Yet, upon seeing Zhang Shu and recalling that Lu Changsheng was an Inner Mansion Martial Artist of the Martial Saint Mansion...

In an instant, the mbers of the Xiao Family deduced certain truths.

Zhang Shu and Lu Changsheng must have gotten to know each other at the Martial Saint Mansion.

The head of the Xiao Family feared that the Xiao Family Ancestor might not understand the prowess of Lu Changsheng.

He promptly transmitted his thoughts, detailing all of Lu Changsheng’s deeds to Xiao Zhenyi.

Xiao Zhenyi’s mind was shaken.

Most of his ti had been spent in seclusion.

He hadn’t realized that such a terrifying Martial Saint had erged in the Holy Land.

Comparable to disciples of the Holy Land who were born once in a lifeti!

"Infinite Divine Power, truly remarkable..."

By now, all of Xiao Zhenyi’s arrogance had dissipated.

He imdiately descended.

With a "sincere" tone, he said, "So it is Lu Saint himself visiting us. Forgive for not welcoming you earlier."

"Rest assured, Lu Saint, Zhang Shu’s matter is rely a misunderstanding. The Xiao Family shall no longer force Zhang Shu into marriage nor suppress the Zhang Family."

Xiao Zhenyi was soone who knew when to yield and when to stand firm.

He clearly understood the implications of "Infinite Divine Power."

Even more so, he recognized how terrifying a Sacred Body forged from Infinite Divine Power could be.

He had no desire to personally experience the Sacred Body of Lu Changsheng.

Given that Lu Changsheng personally ca to support Zhang Shu, how could Xiao Zhenyi dare to confront the Zhang Family?

In fact, with Lu Changsheng present, the Xiao Family wouldn’t dare touch the Zhang Family.

This was influence!

Or perhaps, intimidation.

A person’s na casts a shadow.

Lu Changsheng had now earned renown across the Holy Land.

Many troubles could now simply be resolved with the ntion of his na.

"Good, the matter is settled," Lu Changsheng said with a smile.

"Zhang Shu, return to the Zhang Family for now and explain everything carefully to your family."

"Once your family is settled, join in heading to the Heavenly Sect in the Holy Land."

"I feel a natural affinity with the ancestor of the Xiao Family and wish to discuss and exchange martial arts insights. You may seek at the Xiao Family at that ti."

Lu Changsheng said to Zhang Shu.

Zhang Shu’s expression was a bit peculiar.

A natural affinity with the Xiao Family Ancestor?

How could this truly be "a natural affinity"?

Nonetheless, since Lu Changsheng had said so, Zhang Shu naturally nodded, imdiately leaving the Xiao Family and flying toward the Zhang Family.

Xiao Zhenyi gazed at Lu Changsheng, his expression rigid, his heart sinking further.

"Friend Lu, please."

Xiao Zhenyi had no choice but to invite Lu Changsheng into the Xiao mansion.

Within the Xiao Family’s secret room, Lu Changsheng and Xiao Zhenyi sat cross-legged.

In truth, Lu Changsheng genuinely intended to simply consult and exchange martial arts insights with Xiao Zhenyi.

Especially regarding the realm of the Human Saint.

"Friend Xiao, may I ask, given the power of the Xiao Family, can the montum of its people support your cultivation?"

Lu Changsheng asked.

"Not enough..."

Xiao Zhenyi shook his head, answering honestly.

The montum of the people seed abstruse, yet in reality, the mighty power of a martial artist derived from themselves.

The montum of the people functioned as a type of cultivation resource.

By relying on the montum of the people, one could continually enhance the Sacred Body.

Once the Sacred Body was elevated, losing the montum wouldn’t have any impact, nor would one beco reliant on it.

Immortal cultivators even had the concept of Red Dust Enlightennt.

Martial artists similarly originated from the mortal realm.

Leveraging the montum of the people for cultivation was nothing out of the ordinary.

Given the scope of the Xiao Family, it couldn’t even support Xiao Zhenyi’s cultivation.

If there were to be a second Martial Saint?

The Xiao Family would likely be unable to sustain it.

At that ti, the Xiao Family would have no choice but to embark on relentless expansion.

A power was not necessarily better with more Martial Saints.

The more Martial Saints, the stronger the overall power—this was undoubtedly true.

But in so cases, an excess of Martial Saints could actually diminish the available montum of the people.

If the power’s expansion failed to keep up, cultivation might be compromised instead.

"Friend Xiao, have you ever considered going to the Holy Land?"

Lu Changsheng asked again.

"The Holy Land... isn’t so easily entered."

"Actually, I did visit the Heavenly River Sacred Land back then, but I was eliminated outright, not even qualifying to enter the Sacred Land."

At this, Xiao Zhenyi’s heart filled with bitterness.

No matter how commanding his presence might have been in Xiao City, or even within a thousand miles where his na was greatly respected.

But when he achieved the rank of Martial Saint and attempted to enter the Holy Land, he didn’t even et the qualifications.

It was utterly humiliating.

Yet Lu Changsheng’s eyes lit up as he promptly asked, "Friend Xiao, you’ve actually been to the Heavenly River Sacred Land? What criteria did the Sacred Land have for Martial Saints at the ti?"

"Criteria?"

Xiao Zhenyi glanced at Lu Changsheng.

He knew very well what Lu Changsheng ant.

With Lu Changsheng’s talent, he certainly wouldn’t be content with stopping at the realm of the Human Saint.
