In the center of Lawrence City stood an ancient castle that occupied a vast area. This was also the core area of the entire Lawrence City. Saint Sophia lived in this place.
Apart from that, many important members of the Lawrence family were also scattered in the buildings around the castle.
At this moment, Xia Ping entered the ancient castle under Emma's lead.
Many of the Lawrence family members saw Xia Ping as soon as he entered.
"Look, isn't that Barty? Why is he at our family headquarters? "
"Don't you know what happened recently? Barty did something earth-shattering and earned tens of billions. He's now a popular person among the Magic Tribe. Even the family head specially summoned him. "
"Damn it. Barty was just a small character before. Anyone could bully him. I didn't think he'd turn things around now."
"Sigh, comparisons are really infuriating. Why wasn't I chosen by the family head?"
"I'm afraid Barty will really soar to the sky from now on. It's very possible that he'll become an elder of the Lawrence family."
Everyone discussed animatedly. They were all envious and jealous. They didn't think that a small character they'd looked down on before would turn things around all of a sudden. He'd grown into a character they could only be jealous of. The change was too fast.
Under Emma's lead, Xia Ping soon arrived at a large hall in the deepest part of the ancient castle. There was no one here. It seemed to be the family's forbidden area. No one was allowed to go near it.
This was where the family head of the Lawrence family resided. It was where the saints resided.
"Lord family head."
At this moment, Emma stood outside the hall and called out.
"Emma, is it? Come in now."
A voice came from the depths of the hall. With a snap, the doors of the palace opened automatically.
Whoosh whoosh!
Xia Ping and Emma walked straight in. A woman wearing a long white dress appeared in front of them.
"Hm?!"
Xia Ping's hair stood on end in an instant. He felt a great threat from the woman in the white dress in front of him. Her appearance seemed to be a bit similar to Emma's.
However, their strength was completely different.
She stood where she was, and her real body seemed to be a blurry shadow. With her body as the center, the space within a radius of a hundred meters was distorted. The surrounding space seemed to be collapsing, and countless dimensional spaces were distorted.
Without a doubt, this woman was not just an Undying Saint. Her cultivation base had probably surpassed the Undying Saint realm and reached the Near Ancient Saint realm.
It was said that after reaching the Ancient Saint Realm, they had already begun to comprehend the origin laws of the universe. The difference in strength between them and the Immortal Saint was like heaven and earth. They were more than a hundred times stronger and were not existences that the Immortal Saint could compare to.
Sometimes, out of a hundred Undying Saints, there might not even be one who could reach the Near Ancient Saint realm. This was because to reach this realm, not only did one need a solid foundation, one also needed great comprehension and luck.
Xia Ping could defeat and even use the Reincarnation Brush and other magic treasures to kill Immortal Sages. However, he had no confidence in dealing with Near Ancient Sages. If they really fought, Xia Ping would probably be killed in an instant.
"Master, be careful. This woman is not simple. She has probably reached the level of an ancient saint."
At this time, the green ox's voice also came over and warned, "To reach the Near Ancient Saint realm, one must completely comprehend the power of the Space Law. This kind of person is simply a legend.
Near Ancient Sages can merge with the void at any time. Ordinary people cannot attack their bodies at all. A punch will only hit nothingness.
After all, this kind of legendary person who has comprehended the Space Law can travel through countless dimensions with a single thought. They can travel hundreds of light years away and hide in the depths of dimensions. It is impossible to reach them.
However, if they attack you, they can kill you with a single punch from countless dimensions away. This kind of difference is so great that it can't be measured by distance. In terms of combat power, Undying Saints can only carry the shoes of Near Ancient Sages. "
Space Law?!
Xia Ping narrowed his eyes. Although he knew that Near Ancient Sages' power was beyond imagination, he did not think that reaching this realm would require one to completely comprehend the Space Law.
Near Ancient Sages who had comprehended the Space Law were unimaginably powerful.
"Patriarch Sophia, this is a clansman of the Lawrence family that I mentioned to you before. He is extremely intelligent and talented. He can be considered a promising talent of the Lawrence family."
Emma immediately introduced Xia Ping to the lady in white, Sofia.
"Interesting."
At this time, the woman in white smiled lightly. She seemed to have sensed something. "You are only at the Returning Origin realm, yet you can perceive some of my secrets. It seems that you not only have a great encounter, but you are also overflowing with talent."
Her eyes seemed to contain endless mysteries. Like lasers, she looked at Xia Ping from top to bottom. It was as if she could see through every corner of Xia Ping and see through all of his secrets.
Nothing could be hidden in front of her.
Xia Ping's hair stood up. He felt a great threat. He immediately wanted to counterattack, but he resisted. He was very confident in the power of the Formless Mask. He would not expose his secrets.
Sure enough, after scanning for a while, the woman in white stopped probing. She seemed to think that she already knew Xia Ping like the back of her hand.
After all, in her eyes, a mere Returning Origin realm junior was not worth mentioning. The gap was too big. Probing him was already giving him a lot of face.
"Barty, I heard that you want to borrow the power of the Lawrence family to obtain the position of treasury guard?"
The woman in white, Sophia, asked.
"Yes, Patriarch. I heard that this position is a lucrative one. There are many benefits."
Xia Ping admitted honestly.
"Hehe, you are quite direct. You speak without any consideration for benefits. You are a straightforward person." The white-clothed woman, Sophia, chuckled. "People like you are either loyal and honest, or you are evil and wicked. But it doesn't matter which kind of person you are. As long as you are a member of the Lawrence family, you will naturally be protected. "
Her words showed great confidence. No matter what kind of person Barty was, she could control him. Not because of anything else, but because of her invincible strength.
She was a sage who had comprehended the Law of Space. She could easily crush all conspirators.
If she was unhappy, she could destroy the enemy. It was as easy as breathing.
"Of course, the greater the benefits, the greater the price."
The woman in white, Sophia, looked at Xia Ping. "I heard that you are extremely smart. If you can complete the task I give you, then it is not impossible for you to become a treasury guard."
