"You said you want to invite me to the Heavenly Court?" Hongyun wondered if she had heard wrongly.
She looked at Lu Sheng in shock.
"Of course. I believe in your sincerity and character. Now that the Demon Court has been established, I need time to cultivate in seclusion. Whether it's strength or reputation, the most suitable candidate is you. So I hope you can help me take care of the Demon Court while I'm cultivating, "Lu Sheng answered very sincerely.
Hongyun was stunned.
"I'm not talking about that … I mean, the Demon Court … not the Eastern Emperor Taiyi …"
"They're already in the past." Lu Sheng smiled.
"…" Hongyun was speechless for a while. Although there was related content in the previous message talismans, it was not as shocking as this.
"Everything in the world has its ups and downs. The Taiyi Emperor left the Heavenly Court and gave the entire Demon Court to me. I'm the Celestial Emperor, so I'm in charge there now." Lu Sheng gave a simple introduction.
"…" Hongyun was dumbfounded.
When he met Lu Sheng not long ago, he was just an ordinary Great Demon who ruled over a forest. Now, in the blink of an eye, this fellow had become a Celestial Emperor after cultivating in seclusion?
"… Did you … fight with someone recently?" Hongyun asked carefully, looking at Lu Sheng's confident expression.
"Yes, what are you trying to say?" Lu Sheng was puzzled.
"The injury here is not easy to treat, right?" Hongyun pointed at his head with a look of pity.
"… There's nothing wrong with my head." Lu Sheng was speechless.
Of course, he could understand her thinking. In fact, if he was in such a situation, he would probably behave the same way.
"It's actually very easy to verify this, but let's not waste time here." Lu Sheng stretched out his index finger, and a white flame appeared on his fingertip.
He flicked his finger and gently flicked the flame towards Hongyun.
As soon as she saw the flame, Hongyun's expression changed. She instantly went from being completely doubtful to half-believing.
He reached out his hand to catch the flame and used some demonic power to slowly extinguish it.
"Then, everything depends on you." Lu Sheng threw out a white jade Ruyi again. "This is the key to the Solar Divine Palace."
Hongyun caught the ruyi scepter. Her hands sank slightly and she almost dropped them.
The weight of this thing was like that of those magic treasures that had been compressed at high pressure. Such a small thing weighed at least hundreds of thousands of tons.
Lu Sheng had asked Hongyun to come out of seclusion just to have another supervisor in name.
The Demon Court had many Demon Gods guarding it, so there was no need to worry about any problems. The only problem was that the Sorcerer Tribe might launch an expedition. However, the Sorcerer Tribe was busy hunting down Tai One and the other two for revenge. They did not have the time to deal with them for now.
Bai Ze and the other demon gods were also among the Magi. Therefore, even if they were to fight, it would not be now.
After Lu Sheng arranged everything, he once again set up a formation in the depths of the Celestial Heavens' Celestial Thearch Palace. He ordered over ten demon gods that he summoned from the lower realm to guard the place. Then, he opened the teleportation formation again and entered the space-time vortex.
…
…
"Gulp … Gulp …"
Entering the Mother Stream again gave Lu Sheng a completely different experience.
He moved his limbs slowly, his arms moving along the corrosive water of the Mother Stream. He swam quickly in a direction that he had already calculated.
The colorful space-time vortex kept crashing into his body. Compared to his slow swimming speed before, he was now like a nimble swordfish. He swam quickly in the direction that was pointed above his head.
Above his head, there was still the black line guidance from the Understanding Through Misfortune designed by Bansai.
Lu Sheng swam carefully as he touched the world line with his hands.
"Can you hear me, Bansai?" Bansai? "Lu Sheng sent his Primordial Spirit into it. He converted his voice into a message and transmitted it.
This was the world line created by the Understanding Through Misfortune. Not only could it guide the direction, but it could also be used for a short communication.
It was much more powerful than the crude formation that Lu Sheng used to make.
While marveling at Bansai's genius, Lu Sheng listened carefully for any possible movement from the world line.
Not long after, a soft voice echoed from the World Line.
"Boss! You've finally replied! This function has been activated for so long, isn't it a little too slow? " Bansai's voice was slightly excited. After all, Lu Sheng had been in the Chaotic World for so long. The time spent on both sides was equal, and there had been no reply.
Now that Lu Sheng had finally replied, he could even hear loud cheers coming from the world line. It seemed like Bansai was not the only one there. There were many others too.
After the Green Branch Sect in the Demonic Realm was integrated, it seemed like its foundation was becoming more and more stable.
"How's the situation over there?" Lu Sheng asked simply.
"Everything's normal. There was another battle between the Palaeozoic and the League of Stars. This time, it's for real. Two galaxies near us were destroyed …" Bansai said with lingering fear.
"Billions of stars exploded at the same time. That scene … It's said that the creatures on many planets were blinded by the strong light. They suffered from countless terminal illnesses due to the excessive radiation."
"How's our situation?" Lu Sheng asked hastily. Currently, the Demonic Realm could be considered one of his bases.
"Everything's normal. I've calculated the possibility of encountering such trouble through the Understanding Through Misfortune. That's why I've set up the Strong Light Filtering Formation. There are many helpers in terms of radiation as well. It shouldn't be much of a problem, "Bansai explained.
"That's good. I've obtained some important clues. I haven't found the Eye of Sin, but I've found their whereabouts." Lu Sheng began describing the specific location in detail and the time that had passed.
Bansai carefully asked for a few more details. Then, there was a slightly longer wait.
"Alright, Understanding Through Misfortune has calculated the general direction. Boss, you just need to keep moving forward and follow the world line."
"Understood." Lu Sheng looked at the black line above his head. It was obvious that this thing had made a turn and was pointing to the right.
Lu Sheng paused for a moment. Colorful light suddenly appeared around his body, propelling him into the distance. Soon, he disappeared into the flow of a Mother Stream.
…
…
Beep beep … Beep beep …
Amidst the ear-piercing sound of a horn, Lu Sheng slowly woke up from his drowsiness.
His vision was a little hazy. It seemed that his eyelashes were covered with eye wax. He reached out and rubbed his eyes. Then, he stood up and looked around his surroundings.
This body was sitting on a moving bus.
The front row of the bus was filled with young students. There were both boys and girls, and they looked to be in their teens. They were dressed differently, but most of them seemed to be dressed in modern attire.
For example, the short-haired boy sitting diagonally in front of him was wearing a white shirt and white shorts. He wore a delicate mechanical watch on his wrist and was chatting with the fair-skinned girl beside him with a smile on his face.
On the parallel right seat, a girl with black hair in a ponytail was playing a game on a tablet. She did not care that the bus would shake from time to time.
Along with the sound of the engine, there was a faint piano music in the bus. However, the music was unfamiliar. It was a song that Lu Sheng had never heard before.
He rubbed his eyes again and saw that there was an advertisement on the back of the seat in front of him.
"Dacheng car, safety guaranteed."
Below was a brand new pure white bus. There was a phone number and an email address on the right side.
He looked at his current body again.
Thin, not tall, fair-skinned. He wore glasses, a white T-shirt, and milky-yellow slacks. On his feet was a pair of gray sandals with a black "L" symbol. However, the symbol on his right foot was broken. From the worn and yellowed edges, it was obvious that he had worn it for a long time.
"Wang Dong, your travel pass." The boy in front passed him a travel pass issued by a travel agency.
Lu Sheng was stunned. When he saw the pass directly in front of him, he quickly reached out to catch it.
There was a piece of white paper embedded in the green pass. On it was written: Wang Dong, male, 16 years old. Address: Silver Gilded Hotel. Emergency Contact Number: 7734176.
He turned it around and looked at it. There was a simple topographic map behind the pass. It was the location of the hotel.
At this moment, Lu Sheng's mind was also rapidly integrating Wang Dong's memories.
With the strength of his Primordial Spirit, all of Wang Dong's experiences from when he was young to now were imprinted in his mind in just a short while.
Wang Dong was an ordinary high school student. He was taking advantage of the holidays to participate in a group trip to a foreign country. Because they were registered together, all the members were students from the same class.
Lu Sheng carefully thought about Wang Dong's information.
He was an introverted and obedient child since he was young. He listened to his elders. He was neither good nor bad in his studies. He liked to read, did not know how to dress, and had an average relationship with his classmates.
He did not have any particularly good friends. They were all acquaintances. His cousin, Zhang Qixuan, was in the same class as him. She sat in the seat in front of him. She was also a member of the group trip.
Lu Sheng carefully sifted through the information. He picked out the parts that were related to the background of this world.
'It's not much different from Earth … It's just that the country Wang Dong came from has different hair colors. Some are black, some are brown.'
He carefully sifted through the information. Everything that Wang Dong had experienced since he was young was not interesting at all. It was all normal, ordinary, and indifferent.
He was like a drop of water in this class. Once he blended into it, he would disappear without a trace.
He thought about it, and went to check on Wang Dong's wish.
Although Mental Energy was good, cultivating according to normal procedures should be the orthodox way.
This child's wish was simple.
'I'll make all those who look down on me look at me in a different light. One day, I'll become the strongest in the world!!'
'Uh … What a message from a chuunibyou …' Lu Sheng's expression was slightly awkward. After all, the bodies that descended into different worlds were actually versions of himself that lived in different universes.
The fact that he had such a chuunibyou wish meant that he was subconsciously part of this type as well.
'Such a shameful speech … As expected of a legendary high school student.' Lu Sheng was speechless as he sensed the state of this body.
Weakling.
Rookie.
Idiot.
These three parallelism sentences perfectly encapsulated all the characteristics of this child called Wang Dong.
