Yellow Fatty felt truly ashad and even more embarrassed, as he could be said to be a capable subordinate under Ye Xuan, who granted him significant authority in the Heavenly Court, yet he had no clue about this matter.
"Sir, please give your subordinate so ti, and I will surely find Emperor Jiang and Zhu Jiuyin." Yellow Fatty pleaded, feeling ashad.
"No need, I already have so leads." Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he murmured.
"Sir knows where Emperor Jiang and Zhu Jiuyin are?" Yellow Fatty asked in astonishnt.
"Not sure, but soone ought to know." Ye Xuan replied with a faint smile.
...
In the vast emptiness, auspicious clouds surged.
Luo Hou walked briskly ahead, with Gu Beichen following behind. The two of them remained silent on their journey, and Gu Beichen had no idea where Luo Hou was heading.
Suddenly, Luo Hou halted, turning to look at Gu Beichen.
"Actually, you should return to Ye Xuan. If you keep following , one day when I grow tired, you could face a great calamity."
"Master, you’re joking. I haven’t yet learned all your skills, and that Heavenly Court is too peaceful, not a place I am fond of. Only by following you can I learn many things." Gu Beichen responded calmly.
"Hahaha."
Luo Hou laughed heartily: "You, young man, are indeed ruthless, but unfortunately, you’re a bit too honest and earnest, not quite suitable to inherit my legacy. If you want to follow , then suit yourself."
"Then who does Master think is qualified to be your disciple?" Gu Beichen asked with a smile.
"In this world, there’s only one person qualified to be my disciple." Luo Hou replied with a proud smile, his eyes gleaming with brilliance.
"Who?" Gu Beichen asked curiously.
It wasn’t boasting for Gu Beichen to say his aptitude was extrely high. Otherwise, he couldn’t have reached the realm of Quasi-Saint even after hundreds of thousands of years; it was a miracle in the Three Realms. If even he wasn’t qualified to be Luo Hou’s disciple, he was genuinely curious who would be.
"Ye Xuan, only Ye Xuan is fit to be my disciple." Luo Hou gave an answer that left Gu Beichen stunned, looking at Luo Hou with shock and disbelief.
"You think I’m too arrogant?"
Luo Hou smiled indifferently, his face showing an unprecedented look of arrogance. He looked up to the Heavenly Vault and murmured: "Gu Beichen, you’re still too young, and Ye Xuan is too. Do you know that before the opening of the Primordial Heaven and Earth, I already existed in Chaos? I even witnessed Pangu God opening the heavens and the earth. Even Hong Jun regarded as a scourge and wished to kill ."
"This world contains far too many secrets. Whether it’s you or Ye Xuan, you are rely prisoners of this heaven and earth, never having truly seen the world beyond the Three Realms."
"Do you think I value Ye Xuan’s cultivation?"
Luo Hou withdrew his gaze from the Heavenly Vault, looking directly at Gu Beichen. A solitary aura emanated from his being.
"What I truly value is Ye Xuan’s temperant. When I see him, it’s as if I see my younger self. The only one who can truly inherit my legacy is him alone." Luo Hou spoke softly.
"Unfortunately, he has never trusted , harboring too much wariness against . Yet, he doesn’t realize that if I wanted to kill him today, he would have no chance to resist." Luo Hou murmured deeply.
"Are you not being a bit too arrogant?"
Listening to Luo Hou, Gu Beichen’s expression revealed so dissatisfaction. He knew that Ye Xuan now was nothing like his weaker self in the past. While Luo Hou’s cultivation was unfathomably deep, thinking of killing Ye Xuan was simply unrealistic.
"You think because he defeated Nuwa and extracted her Hongng Purple Qi, he’s invincible among Saints?"
Luo Hou smiled slightly: "He could defeat Nuwa and battle other Saints because of that Black Battle Armor. Unfortunately, he couldn’t control it; it was only after careful planning did he seize an opportunity from Nuwa."
"If I were him, I would never participate in any Heavenly nding assembly but instead quietly go to Nuwa Palace to kill Nuwa. Otherwise, why bring upon the siege of these Saints?"
"Though he succeeded in the end, he took a great risk. Moreover, in his battle with Laozi, which I witnessed firsthand, he wasn’t Laozi’s opponent. He rely used that Battle Armor to frighten Laozi away." Luo Hou spoke eloquently, as if everything was within his control, holding a force that could layout and command the universe.
"But you just said you could kill Ye Xuan. What ability do you have?" Gu Beichen asked, narrowing his eyes to attempt a probe.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the void shattered, the heavens howled with fierce winds, and a point of Demon Light blossod at the center of Luo Hou’s forehead while a blurry and illusory artifact emanated from it.
Crack!
A strand of Demon Light vanished into the void, the surrounding heavens beginning to collapse rapidly. rely the aura emitted by this item was enough to scare Gu Beichen to the extre, even causing his True Spirit to tremble slightly. It induced in him an intense fear of death.
"Co."
Luo Hou murmured calmly, and from nowhere, a pitch-black long spear appeared in his hand, black as ink and exuding rich Demonic Qi, yet restrained, only arcs of black lightning flickering along the spear shaft.
"This is...?"
Gu Beichen’s face turned ashen, his mouth quivering into a low whisper as if suddenly realizing sothing.
"The God Slaying Spear!"
Luo Hou murmured coldly as he gently caressed the spear shaft, his eyes showing a look of intoxication, as if this object was his true ultimate treasure, more important than anything else.
"Do you know why Hong Jun wanted to kill after Pangu opened the heavens?" Luo Hou looked towards Gu Beichen and asked.
"Could it be because of the God Slaying Spear?" Gu Beichen guessed in horror.
"Indeed, it’s because of this God Slaying Spear. This spear could kill Saints and sever the laws of the Heavenly Dao, my true ultimate treasure, even Hong Jun dreaded it greatly."
After speaking, Luo Hou retracted the God Slaying Spear into his forehead, and the surrounding heavens returned to normal, as if this peerless weapon had never appeared.
"Ye Xuan’s Battle Armor is indeed terrifying, and the Heavenly Punishnt Halberd he wields holds unpredictable might. But it’s a pity he cannot truly wield these treasures. Unlike , this God Slaying Spear and I are unified. If I wanted to kill him, Ye Xuan would have long since died under this spear."
"Moreover, let tell you a great secret: I was able to escape from Hong Jun then because the God Slaying Spear repelled him." Luo Hou spoke arrogantly.
"This...?"
Cold sweat drenched Gu Beichen’s back, completely frightened by Luo Hou’s words, stunned in place, unable to recover for a long ti.
"Scared?" Luo Hou patted Gu Beichen’s shoulder, then smiled slightly and walked away into the distance.
"What a pity, what a pity. I had wanted to pass on my entire legacy to Ye Xuan, that he might transcend the heavens in the future and even leave the God Slaying Spear to him. But he’s too inflexible and has always seen as a great enemy."
Luo Hou sighed with sentint and disappeared into the distance while Gu Beichen suddenly awoke, his face rapidly changing. Then he ford a hand seal, condensing a mory Mirror, recording the scene Luo Hou showed, and directly sent it to the Heavenly Court.
Having discreetly completed this, Gu Beichen chased after Luo Hou once more, though the scene just witnessed was too shocking, intensifying Gu Beichen’s wariness towards Luo Hou.
