Lu Wangchuan's heart pounded when he heard this!

He never expected Xi Feng to be a demon god who had fought against the last Great Emperor of the human race!

Wouldn't his tomb contain the most top-tier martial arts inheritance?

After all, he was someone who competed for the imperial throne with the last Great Emperor!

His martial arts inheritance should also have the potential to challenge for the Great Emperor position, right?

The Great Wilderness Three Thousand Regions, with three thousand states in each region, this vast human world has only produced ten Great Emperors so far. One can imagine the power and terror of a Great Emperor.

And this map was in his hands, didn't that mean he was the most likely person to inherit his legacy in the future?

"But you don't need to worry too much. Such legendary figures are not someone we will ever interact with in this lifetime."

Cheng Yunxiao's words pulled Lu Wangchuan back to reality, and Lu Wangchuan nodded.

As he was now, he indeed had no way to obtain that inheritance. His cultivation was insufficient, and going in would be seeking death.

Moreover, before that, this map absolutely could not be known by anyone, otherwise, he would definitely die without a burial place.

Even the strong individuals in the Divine Water Sect would not be unmoved.

"Alright, I'm going to start teaching now. You should also find a place to listen."

"Yes."

Lu Wangchuan responded and found a corner to sit down and listen to the lecture.

Cheng Yunxiao was, after all, a rare expert in the Divine Water Sect. His lectures were indeed very insightful, and Lu Wangchuan listened very carefully.

The experience of experts in cultivation and combat was gained through their own struggles. They had suffered countless losses to accumulate this valuable experience, which could not be simply summarized in a few words.

Many people came to listen to the lecture. At this moment, a group of people suddenly walked in from outside.

The disciples looked over curiously, only to see a group of Divine Water Sect disciples escorting a line of carriages.

"What's going on?"

"Who are they capturing in those carriages?"

Cheng Yunxiao glanced over and said with a smile:

"These people are high-ranking members of the Black Lotus Society. They are supported by the Heavenly Martial Sect and are vying for Da Qian's territory in the Mortal World.

You must be very curious why we captured them. It's because the Heavenly Martial Sect, in order to suppress the influence of our Divine Water Sect, actually resorted to despicable means, sending Black Lotus Society martial artists to intercept and kill disciples who wanted to join our Divine Water Sect!

I will tell you all here today, the dignity of our Divine Water Sect is inviolable. Those who offend our Divine Water Sect, no matter how far away, will be punished!"

Everyone's enthusiasm was ignited, and they shouted in response.

"Those who offend our Divine Water Sect, no matter how far away, will be punished!"

Lu Wangchuan was filled with emotion. As expected of the Divine Water Sect, even a powerful force like the Heavenly Martial Sect dared to attack disciples who had not yet joined the sect, and the Divine Water Sect dared to confront them head-on. Looking back at the chaotic times in Da Qian...

Indeed, to gain a foothold in this world and not be bullied, one must strengthen their own power.

Just as he was thinking, Cheng Yunxiao spoke again with a smile:

"This time, the reason we were able to discover this matter is entirely thanks to one disciple. He is Lu Wangchuan, who just joined the sect half a year ago! Wangchuan, you have rendered a great service this time. Go to the Sect Resource Hall later and claim a reward."

Lu Wangchuan's heart warmed. He hadn't expected Elder Cheng to take credit for such a great service for him. He could have easily said nothing and kept it for himself, but instead, he gave the reward and reputation to him. It was truly rare.

"Thank you, Grandmaster."

Lu Wangchuan stood up and bowed in thanks. Everyone else looked at him with curiosity.

"Who is Lu Wangchuan?"

"I haven't seen him before."

Cheng Yunxiao spoke again.

"Lu Wangchuan is a successor of the Limitless Sword Dao. He is now under my tutelage in the Law Enforcement Hall and is a third-generation core disciple."

Many people in the sect with some seniority immediately understood.

After all, the matter of Still Water Peak was only eleven years ago. For martial artists, eleven years is not a long time, and that incident caused a great stir back then, leaving a deep impression on many.

"Is he the disciple of Lu Xianyuan, who was driven out back then?"

"Lu the Unjust?"

Lu Wangchuan heard some unpleasant remarks coming from the crowd and his eyes turned cold.

Lu Xianyuan had shown him great care. His aptitude might not have been high, but he was still his master. How could he allow these people to slander him in public?

"Lu Xianyuan is my master. If anyone dares to insult him again, don't blame me for being impolite!"

However, these words were completely ignored by the crowd, and the mockery only increased.

Cheng Yunxiao on the high platform let out a cold snort. His aura surged wildly, suppressing everyone and making it difficult for them to breathe.

"Nonsense! Is this all you've learned in the sect, slandering others behind their backs? What are you all discussing? Let me tell you, Lu Wangchuan is now a third-generation disciple of my Law Enforcement Hall. By insulting his master, you are going against my Law Enforcement Hall.

If anyone dares to wag their tongues carelessly again, don't blame this old man for being merciless!"

His words struck everyone silent. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Cheng Yunxiao was protecting Lu Wangchuan, but what could they do?

Cheng Yunxiao held a crucial position in the sect, his strength was among the top, and he was also an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall.

He was not a pushover!

"Alright, today's lecture ends here. You may all disperse. Remember from now on, never slander fellow disciples behind their backs, or this old man will not be lenient!"

Everyone was struck silent, not daring to refute, and could only leave dejectedly.

After everyone had left, Cheng Yunxiao came over to Lu Wangchuan and offered a word of comfort.

"Wangchuan, don't be afraid. I'm here. No one dares to bully you in the Divine Water Sect."

"Yes, thank you, Grandmaster."

Lu Wangchuan cupped his hands in thanks, then straightened his back and said neither humbly nor arrogantly:

"I am not afraid of what these people might do to me. It's just that my master has the grace of teaching me, and I will never allow anyone to insult him! If anyone insults him again, I may not be able to suppress my anger."

"Good! As expected of a disciple of my Law Enforcement Hall! Full of spirit!"

Cheng Yunxiao patted Lu Wangchuan on the shoulder, his eyes filled with even deeper appreciation.

Lu Wangchuan could stand up for Lu Xianyuan today, and he could stand up for himself tomorrow. In this restless world, such a loyal and righteous child was truly rare. He must be properly promoted and not allowed to be buried, otherwise it would definitely be a loss for the Law Enforcement Hall and a loss for his own lineage!

"Good child, if anyone speaks disrespectfully and insults your master in the future, don't hesitate. You can directly take action to teach them a lesson. If necessary, killing one or two minor disciples to establish authority is also acceptable. If you're not tough enough, the insults will only increase. As long as you don't provoke others first, I will bear everything for you!"

"Thank you, Grandmaster."

Lu Wangchuan bowed again in thanks. Having Cheng Yunxiao, such a protective senior in the sect, was undoubtedly a stroke of luck for him.

"Go, collect your reward at the Sect Resource Hall and cultivate well. Also, strive for your master's honor and let those who look down on us know that our Law Enforcement Hall lineage is not useless."

"This disciple will remember Grandmaster's teachings!"

Thanks to the book friend who is not afraid of trouble on the internet for the reward, I am extremely grateful.
