Have You Understood?

Nobody knows what happened.

Just two days ago, everything was fine in Central Province, but suddenly, a bizarre war of words broke out.

"You're talking nonsense! Senior Brother Lu clearly climbed to the 108th step. You're all just spreading rumors."

"Huh? You're the one talking nonsense. I heard Senior Brother Lu say with my own ears that he stepped onto the 365th step."

"Hahaha, this is hilarious! It's clearly 720 steps, okay?"

"You're all spreading rumors, rumors! I saw Lu Changsheng with my own eyes, Senior Brother Lu, stepping onto the 1001st step. Am I blind?"

"It doesn't matter how many steps he ascends, but I still want to emphasize that the reason Senior Brother Lu hasn't become an immortal is because he cares about us Great Luo disciples. How come it's become distorted in your mouths?"

"Hahahaha, that's hilarious! Still thinking about the Great Luo? You have no vision at all. Eldest Senior Brother's thoughts are about all living beings under heaven. Don't you understand?"

"Yes, yes, Senior Brother Lu cares about all living beings. What kind of Great Luo is he? How could Senior Brother Lu's vision be so narrow?"

"Let me tell you, it's no use who comes today. The reason why Senior Brother Lu hasn't become an immortal is because he still thinks about our Exquisite Holy Maiden."

"Yes, yes, yes, it's about our Exquisite Holy Maiden."

"Superficial, superficial. Is my Eldest Senior Brother that kind of superficial person? Is he a womanizer? Is he?"

"Girls, please stop interrupting. Eldest Senior Brother is definitely not the kind of person who is lustful."

"Uh, can we from the Eastern Land chime in?"

"Can't!"

"Roll!"

"When did it become your Eastern Land' place to interfere in the affairs of the Central Province?"

The war of words broke out for no apparent reason. Throughout Central Province, the discussion was not about Lu Changsheng's succession to the Holy Lord, but about the Celestial Origin Holy Ground, how many steps Lu Changsheng actually climbed on the Ascension Platform, and why he chose to give up on the Path to Immortality.

And at this very moment.

The Great Luo Holy Land.

Inside the main peak hall.

Lu Changsheng sat in the main hall, lost in thought.

He couldn't possibly be unaware of something so significant.

But he really couldn't understand who was capable of spreading such terrifying rumors.

Why abandon the Path to Immortality?

It's not that Lu Changsheng lacks ambition; if there truly is Path to Immortality, he can't guarantee anything else, but he would definitely be the first to rush up it.

"That's not right. Qing Feng has already left, so how can there still be rumors?"

Lu Changsheng sighed.

He couldn't understand it.

Perhaps this is why the person who wrote about the Qing Feng is not here, nor is the person named the Qing Feng, yet the Qing Feng still exists.

He shook his head.

Lu Changsheng no longer cared about this matter; he could understand why such a thing had happened.

The Immortal Cultivation World is just too boring.

Most disciples spend their days and nights cultivating. After that, they have nothing to do. What can they do when they have nothing to do?

It's just a group of people gathering together and chatting aimlessly.

You say, "I've heard," and he says, "I've heard."

You say, "I have a buddy," and he says, "I have a brother."

Just like that, with just a few words, something that never happened was born.

Therefore, in order to effectively eliminate rumors, we absolutely cannot rely on everyone's self-discipline. After all, in this world, cultivators can go without food, but they absolutely cannot be without rumors.

So, to solve this problem, we need to keep everyone busy.

Kindness!

Mu Cuo.

The point is to keep everyone busy.

Those who idle away their days are bound to cause trouble.

Therefore, Lu Changsheng has been thinking about an effective way to deal with this unhealthy trend in the cultivation world these past few days. This situation absolutely cannot continue.

Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng picked up his pen and carefully wrote a line on a booklet.

The booklet is also titled 'Several Things a Good Holy Lord Had to Do'.

One hour later.

Lu Changsheng wrote down dozens of rules in great detail.

But before Lu Changsheng could continue writing the ninety-ninth rule...

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

Lu Changsheng stopped writing and then carefully put the booklet into his bosom.

Soon the palace doors opened, and dozens of disciples stood outside, looking at Lu Changsheng and respectfully saying, "We greet our Eldest Senior Brother."

These people look familiar.

Lu Changsheng frowned slightly, but soon he remembered who these people were.

A second-generation Great Luo!

"Eldest Senior Brother, Junior Brother have followed Eldest Senior Brother instructions and have been chopping wood on Qiong Mountain every day. I have come and gone on foot without using any magic. I have now completed five hundred catties of firewood in a day. Please, Eldest Senior Brother, bestow your magic upon me."

It was Wang Ye who spoke.

He knelt respectfully on the ground and spoke with utmost sincerity.

Ha?

To bestow the Dharma?

What does that mean?

Lu Changsheng fell silent.

He soon recalled the task he had given them that day.

Hiss!

This is awkward.

Lu Changsheng was indeed embarrassed.

He was just looking for a quick thrill, so he casually assigned a few difficult tasks, but to his surprise, they completed them in less than six months.

I haven't finished editing it yet.

Why don't you wait a little longer, until I've come up with a reason, and then I'll tell you?

Lu Changsheng thought to himself, but looking at their sincere faces, Lu Changsheng felt genuinely embarrassed.

However, he pondered for half an hour.

Lu Changsheng nodded, appearing quite calm.

"So, have you figured it out?"

A sound rang out.

This time it was Wang Ye's turn to be stunned.

Do you understand?

What did I realize?

Did you grasp the basics?

Wang Ye was stunned. These days, he had been chopping wood every day, working hard and wearing out countless pairs of shoes and sweating profusely, all in the hope that his Eldest Senior Brother would guide him and help him understand things soon.

But now, he's actually asking himself if he's truly understood?

If you've figured it out, will you come back?

Eldest Senior Brother, are you kidding me?

Wang Ye felt indignant, but he dared not show any blame on his face. Instead, he frowned, thinking that his Eldest Senior Brother was testing him.

But a long time passed.

Wang Ye really couldn't come up with anything to say.

"The Eldest Senior Brother Junior Brother are dull-witted and haven't figured it out yet."

Wang Ye said this.

"Sigh!" Lu Changsheng sighed from the bottom of his heart. He had hoped that Wang Ye would say, "I've figured it out," so that he could answer in the same way. But he didn't expect Wang Ye to be so straightforward.

He sighed.

Lu Changsheng said with some disappointment, "I'll give you three more days. Continue chopping wood. I'll come back to ask you again after three days!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you Eldest Senior Brother, thank you Eldest Senior Brother."

Wang Ye immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he got up and left.

Upon seeing this, the other disciples spoke up without hesitation.

"Eldest Senior Brother, we haven't figured it out either, so we won't bother Eldest Senior Brother any longer. We'll come back in three days."

They got up, said those words, and left.

Now Lu Changsheng was starting to regret it.

Why three days?

Is it not good to say seven days, ten days, or thirty days?

It's over!

It's over!

If they found out I was making this up, would I get beaten up?

In an instant, my good mood was ruined.
