"Your cultivation … I can't see through it. Could it be that you've already reached the Celestial Age?"
Xiao Yan's words were filled with disbelief because he couldn't see through Luo Ping's cultivation at all. He was currently at the late Primordial Soul Stage, which meant that Luo Ping had at least reached the Celestial Age.
"Master is indeed amazing. You guessed it right. I'm currently at the early Celestial Age."
Luo Ping didn't hesitate to reveal his cultivation base.
After receiving a definite answer, Xiao Yan smiled with relief. He kept muttering, "Good, good, good. You really didn't disappoint me. How many people in the Cultivation Domain can compare to your cultivation speed?"
"I've really taken in a good disciple. An amazing disciple. No matter how seriously I cultivate, I probably won't be able to catch up to your cultivation speed."
"In the future, the Kongming Sect's legacy will depend on you. I believe that you can develop the Kongming Sect."
Xiao Yan clearly recognized and appreciated Luo Ping's cultivation speed. He even handed the development of the Kongming Sect to Luo Ping.
At this moment, Xiao Yan still didn't know about the war between the three races. Naturally, he didn't know that the Kongming Sect had already been destroyed.
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Luo Ping's face dimmed for a moment. Then, he recovered his smile and pointed below.
"Master, look below!"
Xiao Yan looked in the direction Luo Ping was pointing. Only then did he realize that the person who had been wailing in pain in the arena below was actually the sect master of the Valley of the Sacred Sword, True Monarch Jian Chen.
He revealed a look of surprise and looked at Luo Ping with some doubt.
"Master, I'll explain it to you later."
Luo Ping replied to Xiao Yan. After that, he turned his gaze to Helian Huozhi and said, "Junior Luo Ping greets Senior Helian. Many thanks to Senior for rescuing my master."
When Helian Huochi heard what Xiao Chen said, his eyes shone with praise. He then said, "Brother Xiao has shown kindness to my family. How can I not save him? Wouldn't that be ungrateful?"
"You brat, I have been paying attention to you ever since you came to the Cultivation Realm. After all, you are the current owner of the Slanted Moon Three Star Sword. I originally planned to secretly protect you, but I never thought …"
"Haha, your wisdom and methods have actually helped you overcome the numerous difficulties and resolved all the dangers one by one. Not only that, your heaven-defying cultivation speed is far superior to even my two sons."
"You must know that they have been in their mother's womb for more than eight thousand years. They have been absorbing their mother's skills to survive. After they were born, their starting point of cultivation is much higher than that of ordinary people."
"However, their cultivation speed is much inferior to yours. Your fortuitous encounters and opportunities, your efforts and perseverance are rarely seen in the world. I'm afraid that from the end of the ancient times until now, there are only a few people who can compare to you."
Helian Huozhi's words were full of praise for Luo Ping. He even gave a very high evaluation of him. This made the usually calm Luo Ping feel a little embarrassed.
"Senior, you flatter me. Junior was only lucky to be able to overcome the numerous difficulties and cultivate to the current level. How can I compare with countless seniors?"
Luo Ping said modestly.
"You don't have to be modest. If you can keep your life, your future achievements will definitely be higher than us old fellows. I believe in you."
Helian Huozhi said encouragingly.
"Many thanks, Senior!"
After saying that, Luo Ping retreated and gave his seat to Guang Quanzi and the others. At this time, Gongzi Yu walked to Helian Huozhi excitedly and rushed into his arms.
"Father!"
After more than a thousand years, Gongzi Yu finally had the opportunity to call out these two words. He was very happy and blessed.
Even though Helian Huozhi had already become a Second Tribulation Scattered Immortal, his eyes were slightly red. He could not hide the excitement and excitement in his heart.
The pain in his heart was no less than that of Gongzi Yu. Although he had always known that Gongzi Yu was his son, he could also see Gongzi Yu grow up step by step, become a genius disciple of the Sacred Sword Valley, and become a genius of the current generation.
However, he could only watch from afar. He could not recognize Gongzi Yu because once he did, he was worried that Gongzi Yu would lose his mind and fight with True Monarch Jian Chen.
Before the time was right, Helian Huozhi could not reveal his identity. Therefore, he could only watch Gongzi Yu's growth silently.
This kind of reality where he could only watch from afar and not recognize Gongzi Yu had always made Helian Huozhi very worried. Now that he could finally recognize his son, he was naturally very excited.
"Let's go. Let's talk on the ship first."
Helian Huozhi patted Gongzi Yu's back and said. Then, he looked at the other Great Vehicle Stage experts.
"Everyone, please wait for a while at the headquarters of the Thunder Crane Chamber of Commerce. After I'm done talking with my sons, I'll look for all of you. At that time, we'll discuss the matter of the ancient ruins' treasure map."
Helian Huozhi said to the crowd.
Hearing this, the Thunder Crane Star Monarch and the others understood Helian Huozhi's feelings. Therefore, after agreeing, they left and waited at the headquarters of the Thunder Crane Chamber of Commerce.
Helian Huozhi waved his hand and directly brought Guang Quanzi, Gongzi Yu, and Nie Dan to the ship where the Star Moon Chamber of Commerce was.
Seeing this, Luo Ping and Xiao Yan also flew back to Ni Yue and the others. At the same time, in the arena area, True Monarch Jian Chen, who was wrapped up by Qing Lei and Lei Guang, instantly flew in front of Luo Ping. He was still trying his best to 'perform'.
As for the ten-thousand-year Rock Spirit Clone, it suddenly shrank and returned to its normal size. It flew back to Luo Ping's side. In the palm of the ten-thousand-year Rock Spirit Clone, everyone could vaguely see True Monarch Jian Chen's body, which was restrained to the point that it could not move.
After that, Luo Ping directly released a strand of information into Xiao Yan's sea of consciousness. He briefly told him what had happened all these years.
After reading this information, Xiao Yan's expression became very ugly. He seemed a little disappointed and helpless. After all, the Kongming Sect was destroyed. He was very upset.
However, when he learned that Luo Ping had obtained the Luminous Mirror left behind by the ancient Human Emperor, refined it, and sealed the three Demon Ancestors, Xiao Yan's sadness was swept away. A gratified smile appeared on his face.
As for True Monarch Jian Chen, Xiao Yan also knew why he was like this. He felt that the strength of Luo Ping's group was unbelievable.
"Master, I have already sworn an oath to not kill him. Why don't you do it? After all, he almost killed Senior Helian's family back then. Now, he has tortured you so badly."
"Right now, he can't fight back at all. You can kill him however you want. Kill him horizontally, vertically, sideways, or head-butting. You can do whatever you want."
Luo Ping saw that Xiao Yan had completely read the information, so he asked Xiao Yan to kill True Monarch Jian Chen.
Although he had sworn an oath to not kill True Monarch Jian Chen, it did not mean that others could not kill him. This was why he had agreed to the oath without hesitation.
"Luo Ping, you despicable person. You didn't keep your word. You will suffer retribution."
"Xiao Yan, you are a magnanimous person. Please let me go. I was only responsible for capturing you. My master was the one who tortured you. It had nothing to do with me."
After cursing Luo Ping, True Monarch Jian Chen began to beg Xiao Yan for mercy.
When Xiao Yan heard this, he fell silent. After a while, he said, "True Monarch Jian Chen, as the sect master of the Valley of the Sacred Sword, you framed your fellow disciples back then and covered up the truth. You have already sowed the seeds of evil."
"Although you were only responsible for capturing me and not torturing me, the torture I suffered was still caused by you. This is also your evil cause."
"Originally, I really should have killed you directly. However, that would be letting you off too easily. Rather than killing you, it would be better to let you continue living without dignity. That would be a very satisfying thing."
"Weren't you willing to become my disciple's subordinate? Then let's do as you say. Being able to take in the sect master of the Valley of the Sacred Sword as a subordinate is also a very honorable thing."
After criticizing True Monarch Jian Chen's evil deeds, Xiao Yan actually didn't plan to kill him directly. Instead, he planned to let him live and let him become Luo Ping's subordinate so that Luo Ping could order him around.
After all, it was very easy to kill True Monarch Jian Chen right now. However, if True Monarch Jian Chen became Luo Ping's subordinate, not only would True Monarch Jian Chen gain a powerful helper, he would also be forced to live without dignity. This was a cruel torture.
Moreover, it would be a great humiliation for the Valley of the Sacred Sword. It would cause the Valley of the Sacred Sword to lose all face. After all, a sect master of a first-rate sect being the subordinate of an early Celestial Age brat was unprecedented.
"Okay, as long as you let me go, I am willing to become Luo Ping's subordinate."
True Monarch Jian Chen seemed to have grasped at a life-saving straw and eagerly agreed to Xiao Yan's request.
Luo Ping heard this and didn't oppose Xiao Yan's suggestion. Instead, he said, "Since my master has spoken, I will spare your life. However, before that, I will need your cooperation."
After saying that, Luo Ping formed a seal with both hands and a ball of blue light appeared on his fingertip. Runes flowed around it.
Next, Luo Ping forced out a drop of blood from his fingertip and fused it with the blue light. At this moment, streaks of red light appeared within the blue light and the surrounding runes instantly drilled into it.
After completing this process, Luo Ping directly flicked the blue light out. It split into two and shot into the head of True Monarch Jian Chen's nascent soul and physical body.
The blue light was like a protective barrier. It appeared around True Monarch Jian Chen's nascent soul and then disappeared into his nascent soul.
Seeing this, True Monarch Jian Chen's expression suddenly changed. He naturally understood what was going on and his heart couldn't help but plummet. He completely lost all thoughts of resisting.
After doing all this, Luo Ping recalled the Azure Lightning Lei Guang and released True Monarch Jian Chen's nascent soul. At the same time, the ten-thousand-year stone spirit clone also released True Monarch Jian Chen's physical body.
