Chapter 609: Determination

Chapter 609: Determination

Ling Ping’an held Hu Nuonuo’s hand as they walked out of the house.

At this time, it was already midnight.

The winter frost shrouded the small mountain village.

The few people at the door, even if they were all transcendent beings, were shivering from the cold.

But when they saw Ling Ping’an come out, they immediately bowed respectfully.

“Young Master…” The few of them lowered their heads in unison.

Ling Ping’an looked at these people and didn’t say anything, but he didn’t leave either.

After a moment of silence, he said, “The Lu family…”

Lu Wenxiao knelt down as if he had been pardoned and kowtowed, “Young Master!”

“Follow me!” ordered Ling Ping’an.

“Yes!” Lu Wenxiao kowtowed again in ecstasy.

Then, he hurriedly followed behind Ling Ping’an.

Ling Ping’an walked straight ahead and soon arrived at Uncle Zhang’s door.

After he knocked on the door, Uncle Zhang’s familiar face appeared in front of him.

“Young Master…” the old man stammered.

Ling Ping’an looked at the old man whom he had been familiar with since he was young and said, “Uncle Zhang, it’s been hard on you all these years!”

“There are some things that I intend to clarify after coming back this time!”

Immediately, Uncle Zhang lowered his head. “Zhang Zhao respectfully listens to young master’s orders!”

As Ling Ping’an helped this old man up, he said, “You don’t have to do this!”

He turned around and looked at Lu Wenxiao behind him, saying, “You have been presiding over the matters of the ancestral residence for me!”

“This descendant of the Lu family wants to acknowledge his ancestors and return to his ancestors… you can make arrangements for him!”

“Yes!” Zhang Zhaoxian nodded swiftly.

However, Lu Wenxiao was so emotional that he started to cry.

It had been decades since the Lu family had been expelled from this place.

The thing that his father had been yearning for before his death was about to come true today?

He recalled that afternoon. He could not even enter Qilipu village.

It was thanks to Hu Nuonuo that he was able to set foot in this place and obtain this opportunity.

He quickly knelt down and said, “Young Master Hong En!”

After that, he bowed to Zhang Zhaoxian and said, “Eunuch Zhang is a great person!”

Then, he bowed to Hu Nuonuo and uttered, “Thank you, Sister Hu. I will never forget your great kindness!”

Lu Wenxiao was very clear about the meaning behind this.

This was not only for him and his descendants. From now on, they would have the right to witness the power of the divine ability.

It would also allow his ancestors’ souls to be at peace.

One had to know that, on this day, he would be a slave, and he would be a slave for generations to come.

And the family slaves who were expelled would not only bring disaster to his descendants, but also his ancestors’ souls.

Consequently, these ancestors unable to rest in peace, and they would be unable to escape.

However, Ling Ping’an looked at him and said, “Don’t be happy too early!”

“There are some things that you have to do, and you have to do them well!”

There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

Even if one was kind-hearted, there had to be a purpose.

In the past, Ling Ping’an could do whatever he wanted.

But now, he was determined to step on that path, to explore his own path, to seek for balance and even to control his own fate.

Then, he could no longer be as casual as in the past.

There must be order.

Lu Wenxiao promptly stood up and said respectfully, “Young master, please instruct me… I will not hesitate even if I have to go through fire and water!”

Following a chuckle, Ling Ping’an began to explain.

…

In the underground ruins.

Li Shouyi looked at the huge bronze God with a burning gaze.

Hollow Jade Yang Jian?

He was contemplating about the title.

He didn’t call himself Lord Qingyuan Miaodao, nor did he call himself true monarch Lord Erlang. Instead, he was proud of Yuxu Yang Jian?

Why was it so?

Li Shouyi took a deep breath as that was too huge a shock.

He was a disciple of the snail emperor sect, and now, he was a disciple of three purities.

The Dao Father and the Holy Mother had both come knocking on his door within a day.

The federal empire was so lucky to have two immortal gods at the Dao Father level treat them differently?

That was impossible!

Therefore, they could only target that bookstore owner.

So… what was the background of that bookstore owner?

He actually made all the disciples of the Dao ancestor pay him a visit?

They heard the bronze God, who called himself Yuxu Yang Jian, say, “On behalf of Yuxu’s disciples, I am willing to establish contact with you… What do you think?”

He showed an image of a place where time and space intersected with many different universes.

Yang Jian knew that this was the greatest opportunity in the history of Yuxu’s disciples.

As he began to feel a little uneasy, he took a deep breath.

“Respect the Gods…”he cupped his hands and said softly, “I should have welcomed you…”

“But…”

“I can’t make the decision on this matter!”

If he could make the decision, he would have used the realm of nightmare to invite the human elites from that parallel world to the federal empire.

After all, ever since the scientists of the federal empire found out that the Blackguard was cooperating with the Earth of a parallel world, they had all gone crazy.

Many scientists had reported one after another, wanting to obtain a game pod so that they could go to that parallel world.

The Science Committee under the cabinet had been requesting the Blackguard to invite the other party’s elites to visit and study in the Federal Empire.

Ever since the era of the great ancestor, the federal empire had suffered from a ‘thirst for talent’.

For 300 years, the national policy had always been to ‘absorb global talent at all costs’.

For this reason, even though the constitution of the Empire stated that the federal empire was not a country of immigrants.

However, the successive cabinet, regardless of whether it was the Gonghe Party or the Datong Party, would always try their best to give the green light to the talents they brought in.

However, this matter was not something that the blackguard could decide.

The only one who could decide was the owner of the bookstore.

Only with his approval could this matter be accomplished.

Otherwise, there was no chance of success at all!

Now, the request of this immortal God who called himself Yuxu Yang Jian was just so-so.

Yang Jian also understood.

In this world, there were rules set by saints.

Naturally, if he wanted to come over, he would need the approval of that saint.

Therefore, he nodded and said, “I know. However, I am restricted here and can not walk out of this place. Therefore, I can only ask you to pass this item to that… teacher on my behalf!”

As he said this, a light flew out from his forehead.

When the light landed in Li Shouyi’s hand, it turned into a jade slip. On the jade slip, mysterious runes began to spread out layer by layer.

Li Shouyi was naturally happy to give him such a favor. He cupped his hands and said, “If that’s the case, I will definitely hand it over to that…”

Yang Jian nodded and slowly closed his eyes.

His divine sense had almost run out of time. It was time to return.

Li Shouyi raised his head and looked at the bronze statue that was gradually withdrawing its divine light.

Then, he sighed softly. “It is indeed a great change that has never happened before!”

However, the Federal Empire had already embarked on this path, so they could only advance and not retreat.

If they retreated, the world would fall into chaos!

And whether it was the people from snail emperor or the disciples of the Dao Father, all of them made him feel heavy pressure.

“We must grasp a higher level of strength!”

He clenched his fists.

“We must immediately launch an attack on the abyss and surround and kill a demon lord!”

“Only in this way can we accumulate enough honor points to exchange for the ‘construction wood orbital launch system’ as the prerequisite!”

The construction wood orbital launch system was the prerequisite system for the highest reward in the realm of nightmare, the ‘dark bird around the sun formation’.

Only by possessing the former skill could they have the latter skill.

And both of them were the supreme treasures of the immortal Qin civilization!

According to research, they were the perfect fusion of technology and psionic power.

If these two systems could be mastered and digested, then the Federal Empire could also produce their own super energy.
