I Beg Senior to Take Me as a Disciple, This Junior Will Serve Master by Your Side for Life!
Luo Chuan's strength had reached the mid-stage of the Jingnie Realm realm, making him an unimaginable force to be reckoned with in front of these cultivators.
Any cultivators who came into contact with the infected either fled immediately or knelt on the ground begging for mercy, hoping that the other party would take pity on their hard-won cultivation and allow them to leave safely.
Luo Chuan didn't care about the group of cultivators kneeling on the ground, but as long as they were running away, they had almost no energy to resist him, and he would crush them to ashes in an instant.
Those at the Spirit Severing Realm are indeed ants before those at the Jingnie Realm; a single sweep of divine sense is enough to kill almost anyone who leaves alive.
"Junior Shen Gonghu, a second-level envoy of the Thunder Immortal Palace, pays his respects to Senior!"
Just then, a black-haired man flew in from not far away.
The black-haired man immediately prostrated himself on the ground, expressing his fervent reverence in a manner he had only displayed when he formally became a disciple.
If outsiders were to witness this scene, they would be extremely shocked. Shen Gonghu is known for his arrogance and ruthlessness. Even among the envoys of the Thunder Immortal Palace, he is a formidable figure, and many cultivation families are reluctant to provoke him.
Most importantly, this person is incredibly talented. Even the Lord of the Thunder Immortal Palace once said that Shen Gonghu's talent ranks among the top thirty in the Luotian Star Domain.
This person has only cultivated for a thousand years, yet he has already reached the early stage of Spirit Severing, close to perfection. The terrifying nature of this talent is even more frightening than his ruthless personality.
Because you'll never know where his end is; perhaps the next moment, he'll reach the true second step.
Looking at Shen Gonghu in front of him, Luo Chuan didn't say anything and strode straight away into the distance, causing the passing cultivators to avoid him as if they were in a hurry.
Shen Gonghu rushed over, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed twice towards Luo Chuan's location, saying, "Senior, please wait!"
Luo Chuan's gaze fell on Shen Gonghu, who was kneeling on the ground before him, and he nodded slightly, saying, "I have heard of your name."
"Everyone else is busy fleeing for their lives, but you alone have gone against the grain and come before me. Are you so sure that I won't take your life?"
Shen Gonghu knelt down and respectfully kowtowed in the direction of Luo Chuan: "Senior, I have long admired you. Even from a distance, I know that you are not the fierce person you appear to be."
"I humbly request that you accept me as your disciple, senior. I am willing to serve you for the rest of my life!"
Luo Chuan gazed at Shen Gonghu, who was devoutly bowing before him, and remained silent for a moment. He did not respond, but simply turned around and continued walking into the distance.
At this moment, he had no desire to take on any more disciples. With Liu Mei and A-Dai under his wing, that was enough. As for others, Luo Chuan had no interest in them.
Seeing Luo Chuan turn and leave, Shen Gonghu hurriedly chased after him on his knees, his forehead pressed to the ground, his voice filled with urgency.
"Your Excellency! I am by no means the kind of person who would curry favor with the powerful! You may not know, but those who fled originally intended to use me as a scapegoat. If it weren't for my quick thinking, I would already be a pile of bones by now."
Shen Gonghu raised his head, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, which then transformed into a sincere yearning. "Since Your Excellency possesses such extraordinary abilities, I am willing to be the sharpest blade under your command. Even if it means facing mountains of knives and seas of fire, I will never flinch!"
"I only ask to stay by Your Majesty's side, even if it's just serving tea and water, I would be willing!"
Luo Chuan continued walking, his tone remaining calm. "I have no shortage of blades."
"But His Majesty always needs someone to run errands and relay messages, and someone to gather intelligence!"
Shen Gonghu continued his relentless pursuit, his knees scraped raw by the gravel, bleeding profusely, but he remained oblivious.
"I have considerable connections among all sorts of people. If Your Excellency gives the order, I can uncover even the most remote and hidden secrets for you!"
Seeing that Luo Chuan remained unmoved, Shen Gonghu suddenly kowtowed heavily, his forehead hitting the ground with a dull thud. "If Your Majesty does not agree, this junior will kneel here forever, until death!"
Luo Chuan finally stopped and glanced back at him.
Sunlight shone on Shen Gonghu's dusty face, revealing in his eyes both shrewd calculation and a resolute determination to gamble everything.
"Whatever you want," Luo Chuan said calmly, then turned and continued walking.
Shen Gonghu was stunned at first, then overjoyed. He scrambled to his feet and carefully followed Luo Chuan three steps behind, bowing deeply. "Thank you, Your Excellency! This junior will do my utmost and will never fail Your Excellency's trust!"
He knew in his heart that the "whatever you want" meant tacit consent.
As long as one can stay by the side of this great being, even if one is only a follower for the time being, the opportunities in the future will be far greater than those of those who flee in panic.
Luo Chuan felt a little helpless. He put one hand behind his back and strode away into the distance.
In the blink of an eye, Luo Chuan's figure completely disappeared from the spot, leaving only the special energy fluctuations that permeated the air.
Shen Gonghu looked excitedly in the direction his lord had left and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, I await your return here!"
Luo Chuan ignored Shen Gonghu kneeling on the ground, his gaze sweeping over the Big-Headed Boy who was trying to retreat, and said coldly, "Trying to escape!"
Before he finished speaking, Luo Chuan's figure blurred, and he took a step that covered dozens of feet. The Immortal-Sealing Seal roared out and rushed straight ahead.
The cultivation level of the Big-Headed Boy is currently the same as that of Luo Chuan, both at the early stage of Spirit Severing.
Having witnessed Luo Chuan's rise to power firsthand in the three trials of Heaven, Earth, and Man, he harbored extreme fear of Luo Chuan and was unwilling to confront him at all.
"Senior Luo Chuan, I will simply withdraw from this place. Why must we pursue this to the bitter end? Our cultivation levels are currently evenly matched. If we were to fight, even if you were to win, you would inevitably be injured. Let's not allow Xu Ting to gain the upper hand!"
The silly smile on the Big-Headed Boy's face had long since disappeared, and he hurriedly shouted.
Clearly, he was unwilling to make an enemy of Luo Chuan. After all, such a powerful figure was far beyond his ability to contend with; a slight misstep could result in the annihilation of his soul and body...
Luo Chuan ignored him and instantly appeared in front of the Big-Headed Boy, reaching out with his right hand to grab his throat.
"No, don't do this!"
The Big-Headed Boy panicked completely and tried to use his magic, but found that his body seemed to be completely imprisoned by Luo Chuan, and he could not move at all.
Sensing the terrifying power of this energy, the Big-Headed Boy immediately begged for mercy, "Spare me! I can't die here so soon. Please, senior, show me mercy!"
"Noisy."
Luo Chuan suddenly exerted force with his right hand, instantly crushing the head of the Big-Headed Boy. He then glanced at Guang Yu in front of him and thought to himself, "It seems that these are just souls. Even if I kill them all, they can be resurrected. What a pity."
Luo Chuan put one hand behind his back, sighed softly, and continued walking into the distance, searching for the cultivators in this place and killing them all.
