The Truth Behind the Assassination

Inside this magnificent hall, surrounded by countless Zhenfeng Star, there were only two people: one was the great being with the body of a snake and the upper body of a human, and the other was Lu Yan'an.

"Judging from its appearance, it should be Pu Ti, the eldest disciple of the Zuoshanke, and also the first teacher who guided me to the universe!" Thinking of this, Lu Yan'an's mood was somewhat complicated. He had thought that he would meet this nominal teacher when he came to the Star Tower, but he did not expect that day to come so soon.

"Greetings to this senior of the Snake-man!" Lu Yan'an bowed respectfully. No matter what, this Pu Ti was Lu Yan'an's nominal mentor, and he was able to reach this point thanks to Pu Ti's legacy, so he had to pay his respects.

However, he could not call him by his name directly, nor could he reveal that he already knew his identity. Therefore, addressing him as "Senior of the Snake-man Clan" was the most appropriate thing to do at this time.

"Sit!"

This powerful and ancient figure, Pu Ti, pointed to the ground in front of him.

Lu Yan'an didn't mind at all, and immediately sat down on the ground in front of it as Pu Ti had shown him.

"Are you filled with doubts?" This great and ancient being looked down at Lu Yan'an, his purple beard hanging down, smiling. "What exactly is Teacher Doubt? Why does it know about Feng Yunruo? And who am I?"

"No, I'm not confused! I just want to know why this Zuoshanke summoned me here!" Lu Yan'an thought to himself. As for the identity and origins of this Zuoshanke, probably no one else in the entire Primal Universe, or even the Universe Ocean, knew anything about him except Lu Yan'an. He even knew some of the secrets of the Yan Di in front of him, Lu Yan'an, and the Pu Ti Emperor.

However, Lu Yan'an couldn't just stand there and say he knew everything, so he could only continue, "Yes, I am full of doubts, and I would appreciate it if you could enlighten me, senior."

"You Yuan Planet people are truly the most superior lineage guided by our teacher," the great ancient being exclaimed, then changed the subject, saying, "I usually only leave a Clone here, but knowing you've arrived, I came in person. Oh... I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is 'Pu Ti,' the guardian of the Star Tower, and also your guide. Of course, you might be more familiar with my other name— 'Ti Pu'!"

"Ti Pu?" Lu Yan'an exclaimed, feigning surprise.

"Does my name sound familiar? If I'm not mistaken, you should have received my inheritance, but none of that matters anymore!" Pu Ti looked down at Lu Yan'an and smiled. "Haha, I was originally the first servant that Master Zuoshanke took in back then, but countless Years have made me the Universe Master... My master was merciful and made me his disciple."

"I am the most senior disciple under my teacher."

"The leader of the Yan Shen Race is the second disciple of our master."

"Our master has many servants, but only two disciples. I am lucky because I have followed him the longest and have the strength. He valued our past relationship and that's why I was qualified to become his eldest disciple... The Yan Shen Race Clan and the Yuan Planet Clan are the core members that our master has truly cultivated with countless Heart Power."

Pu Ti looked at Lu Yan'an and smiled, "There was once a candidate in the history of your Yuan Planet lineage who had the opportunity to become my third junior brother under Master Zuoshanke. But unfortunately, he failed. Now, the second successor of your Yuan Planet lineage is undergoing a life-or-death test, which has been 3,000 Years ago! Moreover, you should be very familiar with his name—Feng Yunruo."

"Feng Yunruo? 3000 years of life and death inheritance?" Upon hearing this, Lu Yan'an was genuinely surprised. He knew that Feng Yunruo had entered the universe, but he had not heard from him since. He never expected that this was the Years when Feng Yunruo was receiving the life and death inheritance of the Star Tower.

Seeing that Lu Yan'an seemed stunned by her words, Pu Ti continued with a smile, "Yuan Planet is the name you give to your planet. It's different from the name given to the previous candidate in a different era. In the era of the first candidate, Yuan Planet was called 'Shanhai Realm,' but in the era you live in now, you call it Yuan Planet."

"Regarding the Yan Shen Race Clan and the Yuan Planet Clan..."

"Back then, I followed my teacher and ventured into the vast universe."

"Our teacher spent countless Heart Power choosing a planet inhabited by Human Race and began guiding their growth, creating a race with innate strength! This race later became the 'Yan Shen Race'," Pu Ti said with a smile. "Unlike me and the other servants, who were chosen arbitrarily by our teacher, the Yan Shen Race was carefully nurtured by him. Under his rigorous selection, the most powerful member of the Yan Shen Race ultimately became your teacher's second disciple."

"My second junior brother is unwilling to be inferior to anyone."

"Leaving humanity with their tribe, they called themselves the 'Yan Shen Race' and became a powerful race in the universe," Pu Ti laughed. "Although the Yan Shen Race is far inferior to humans in terms of overall strength, they have a second junior brother who is the Universe Master and possesses Supreme Treasure crafted by their teacher. He is not afraid of any of the top human beings and has since become an Overlord in the universe."

"And what about you, Teacher Pu Ti? Judging from your appearance, you should be one of the many races among the 'Snake-man' of the orc race among my Human Race," Lu Yan'an continued to ask.

Upon hearing Lu Yan'an's address, Pu Ti was first taken aback, then burst into laughter, the sound seemingly infecting the surrounding space and time, causing it to tremble. After a long while, its laughter gradually subsided, and then it said to Lu Yan'an, "I dare not accept this title of 'teacher'! I've only provided you with a platform and some opportunities; whether you can seize these opportunities depends mainly on yourself."

"I don't have such ambitions, and unlike my second junior brother, I don't possess a special race that allows me to lead my people, conquer a territory in the universe, and become a regional Overlord. Being alone, I naturally remain among the Human Race."

"I just didn't want to reveal my full strength and implicate my teacher, so I kept a low profile and had one of my Clone among the Human Race for a long time. I also had my Clone display the Peak Battle power of Universe Venerable, slightly weaker than the Universe Master in the race, and I used the pseudonym 'Ti Pu'."

Lu Yan'an was very clear about these things. Pu Ti had remained hidden among the Human Race until the time of City Lord Luo.

"As for the teacher's identity, I can only give you a general idea." After a moment's thought, Pu Ti smiled and said, "You should know that some of the Overlord among the Universe Venerable are even comparable to Universe Master in terms of combat power. And if we can resurrect them, then we can make these Universe Overlord fight, fight regardless of their lives! Even if they perish, they can be resurrected again! This alliance will naturally be incredibly powerful."

Lu Yan'an nodded slightly.

"The most powerful force in the universe."

" Of the Four Peak Races, apart from the Monster Race which has two of the Universe Supreme Being, each of the other races has one strongest being. Among you humans, the one who can achieve this is the 'Giant Axe Founder'! I believe you are quite familiar with him," Pu Ti said. "And outside of the Four Peak Races, there are some extraordinary and Special Lifeform, like the teacher, who is a one-of-a-kind existence in the universe, without any other life of his kind."

"Beyond the Four Peak Races, numerous Special Lifeform, and some extraordinary individuals among billions of races... have also produced great and invincible beings like the 'Giant Axe Founder.' Teacher is one of them."

"Our teacher is unconventional and carefree. The Six Great Peak Races have long spent countless efforts to invite him to join, but he simply ignores them and disdains to participate in those struggles."

"On the contrary, our teacher has some special pursuits. The Yan Shen Race Clan and the Yuan Planet Clan are among the crystallizations of his Heart Power. As for why our teacher went to the Ancestral God Religion to assassinate you, it was mainly because he wanted to meet the second leader of the Yuan Planet Clan. In addition, the Machine Race promised to 'assassinate' you in exchange for a Peak True Treasure, so our teacher went along with it!"

"Perhaps you still have some doubts about why your teacher left after merely destroying your Soul-type Supreme Treasure, even though he had the upper hand. Actually, your teacher never intended to kill you. As the second human leader of the Yuan Planet lineage, you are practically your teacher's child. How could your teacher possibly lay a hand on you?" Pu Ti explained to Lu Yan'an with a smile.

"As for why the teacher invited you here, the teacher will personally appear and explain it to you after Feng Yunruo has completed this path of life and death." At this point, Pu Ti's tone became somewhat heavy, as if he had recalled the terrifying nature of this path of life and death!
