Respected Elder
"Old man, show some respect. This is my master." Lian Renshan's terrifying aura burst out and shrouded Luo Linkai.
"Boom!"
This powerful aura pushed Luo Linkai back a few steps. He spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at Lian Renshan in shock. He couldn't believe it and shouted, "How is this possible? You... Lian Renshan, how are you so strong? Have you broken through to the Invincible Emperor Realm?"
"Hmph." Lian Renshan snorted coldly. "That's right, I've already broken through. Not long ago, I broke through under the guidance of my master. Luo Linkai, you dare to disrespect my master. If it weren't for our old friendship, I would have killed you."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Elder Lian Renshan had actually broken through to the Invincible Great Emperor Realm under the guidance of that young man. This … this was simply too shocking.
Could that young man be an old antique?
Did he deliberately restrain his aura and conceal his cultivation base? The Great Sage Realm aura that he exposed was just a cover for the others?
To be able to make Elder Lian Renshan so respectful and help him break through to the Invincible Emperor Realm, could that young man be a Half-step True God Realm expert?
If that was the case, then their Sky Sword Sect had made a huge profit.
A Half-step True God Realm expert.
In the Cangsheng Continent, other than the Central Continent, the other four continents didn't have a Half-step True God Realm expert. In their continent, there wasn't even an Invincible Great Emperor Realm expert. Now, Elder Lian Renshan had broken through the shackles and became an Invincible Great Emperor. This meant that the Sky Sword Sect had become the strongest sect in this continent.
Big profit. This time, the Sky Sword Sect had really made a huge profit.
Not only did they have an Invincible Emperor Realm expert, but they also had a Half-step True God Realm expert.
These old-timers were all delighted. To them, this wasn't the greatest benefit. The greatest benefit was that with a half-step True God expert, they would be able to take him as their master. Wouldn't they be able to seek guidance from him? They were old now, and their lifespan would not last much longer. If they could obtain the guidance of a half-step True God, they would be able to break through their shackles and make a breakthrough in their cultivation. That would be the real benefit. It was something they yearned for day and night. Who would want to die?
"Senior, no, Uncle-master, I was wrong just now. Please forgive me." Was Luo Linkai a fool? No, of course he was not a fool. On the contrary, he was much smarter than others. Otherwise, he would not have cultivated to such a level and achieved his current status.
Therefore, when he found out that Yang Hongwu was helping Lian Renshan break through to the Invincible Emperor Realm, and that he was most likely a Half-Step True God Realm expert, he immediately changed his attitude.
"Shameless!" Lian Renshan was disgusted by Luo Linkai's behavior. The reason why he and Luo Linkai were rivals was because he could not bear to see Luo Linkai's face.
Yang Hongwu was also surprised.
He did not expect this old man to be so shameless. He was just mocking him a moment ago, and now he was flattering him like a dog. It made him speechless.
This was the first time he had seen such a shameless person.
"Uncle-master!"
The others were not fools either. One by one, they began to call out.
"Uncle-master!"
"Uncle-master!"
Yang Hongwu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was speechless at the sight of these old-timers kneeling before him, even though they were all old-timers.
"Cough cough, get up. All of you, get up." Yang Hongwu said helplessly. This was the first time he had encountered such a weird situation.
Did the Sky Sword Sect have such a tradition?
However, he had to admit that this method was effective. As the saying goes, one does not slap a smiling face. These guys had just met and they had already acknowledged their Old Ancestor. Even if Yang Hongwu did not want to deal with them, he could not bear to do so.
It was absolutely impossible for such a thing to happen in other sects. Especially for those powerhouses, some geniuses, and those old antiques. Their status was high and lofty. How could they bow down to a seemingly young expert whose cultivation was merely at the Great Sage Realm?
Yang Hongwu knew that such a sect could rise easily.
Of course, it was difficult for such a sect to produce a peerless genius or a super expert.
No peerless evildoer or peerless powerhouse would have such a mentality. However, if every martial artist in a sect had such an attitude, then the sect would be able to develop easily. Moreover, the inheritance would definitely last for a long time.
"The important thing now is to deal with the Sword Tomb. As for Master's matter, let's talk about it after this matter is settled." Lian Renshan said.
"Master is right. As for Grandmaster's matter, let's wait until the matter of the Sword Tomb is settled. Once the matter of the Sword Tomb is settled, I will hold a grand ceremony to make Grandmaster a revered elder of my Sky Sword Sect," Gui Longping said loudly.
Lian Renshan was very satisfied with these words. However, the others were very surprised.
A revered elder was a very high status. If he became a revered elder, he would be able to mobilize all the forces of the Sky Sword Sect and have supreme authority.
His status was incomparably respected, just like an emperor in the secular world.
Yang Hongwu was also shocked.
He did not expect that Gui Longping would be given such a high status by a stranger like him. This was really too shocking.
The status of a revered elder was above the Elders Assembly and the Sect Master.
"This … cough cough, Sect Master, I can't agree to this matter. The title 'revered elder' doesn't suit me. I'm just an outsider. If I become a revered elder of the Sky Sword Sect, what will the other disciples think? Besides, the other elders won't agree. I'm not a member of the Sky Sword Sect, and I haven't made any contributions to the Sky Sword Sect. Therefore, I won't agree to this position. " Although Yang Hongwu did not know what Gui Longping was thinking and what he was planning, he knew that no matter what, Yang Hongwu would not become a revered elder of the Sky Sword Sect.
Moreover, there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world. As the Sect Master, Gui Longping had a high status. How could he let an unfamiliar outsider become a revered elder of the Sky Sword Sect? It would be strange if there wasn't a conspiracy behind this.
"Does Old Ancestor look down on our Sky Sword Sect?" Gui Longping asked.
"Master." Lian Renshan was also disappointed.
"This matter, let's think about it at length." Luo Lin spoke at this time. "After all, Martial Uncle doesn't know our Sky Sword Sect well. Once he understands our Sky Sword Sect, he will definitely agree to become a revered elder of our Sky Sword Sect."
