He Really Was a Simpleton

"Oh right, I forgot to look for him!"

Liu Xun also suddenly realized what was happening and turned to look at Liu Duanyuan:

"Ancestor, where did you find that kid again?"

Liu Duanyuan also perked up, looked outside, and said:

"Withering and Flourishing Sect"

"A mere sect like the Withering and Flourishing Sect actually has such a descendant." Liu Tianming looked surprised.

"He just happened to be there at the time," Liu Duanyuan explained, then looked at everyone present and said:

"I will personally go to handle this matter."

"Considering our previous help, he probably won't be too wary of me."

Upon hearing this, everyone present nodded in agreement.

After Liu Duanyuan left, the people present chatted for a while longer, and finally moved on to another, more important issue:

"So what do we do now?"

"What else can we do besides searching?" An elder of the Liu Clan shook his head, slightly puzzled.

"We never intended to return those artifacts to the Shen Clan, and now that they're gone, we have no other choice."

"Even if this were told to outsiders, it would be difficult for them to believe it."

Although they all knew in their hearts that this was indeed the case, many people still couldn't help but sigh when they actually heard these words.

They've finally visited the emperor's tomb, but looking at it now, it seems they haven't gained anything; instead, they've gotten themselves into a mess.

Don't overthink it, it's not your fault.

Liu Xun patted Liu Tianming on the shoulder:

Don't worry, what belongs to you, no one can take away.

Liu Tianming simply nodded without saying a word, his mind still preoccupied with being tricked by a chair.

On the other side.

As the instigator, Lu Changzhi Descent directly to Hidden Origin Peak after obtaining the Emperor Conferment Chair.

"Phew, I'm finally back."

The chair was taken out again, Artifact Spirit's voice rang out.

"How."

Lu Changzhi smiled upon hearing this:

"Were you feeling stifled by Liu Tianming's company?"

"That doesn't count."

The Artifact Spirit chuckled:

"I'm quite busy."

"Tell me, what have you been busy with?" Lu Changzhi said with a smile.

"Hehe, look."

Emperor Conferment Chair chuckled, and then a flash of light appeared in front of him.

Suddenly, weapons appeared out of thin air in the previously empty courtyard.

Guns, knives, daggers, bows, whips, hammers...

Everything imaginable is there, haphazardly arranged, like a general store.

Lu Changzhi was stunned:

"Where did they all come from? Are they from the Liu Clan?"

A quick glance revealed that these artifacts were of exceptionally high quality; any one of them could be considered Dao Artifact.

Not only are they of high quality, but their quantity is also quite large.

Most importantly, all of this was beyond his expectations.

After all, the initial act of sending out the Emperor Conferment Chair was merely to establish a persona for Liu Tianming.

Unexpectedly, we've now achieved the effect of "sowing one seed in spring and reaping ten thousand in autumn."

That's right.

The Artifact Spirit the Emperor Conferment Chair recounted the events that had transpired to Lu Changzhi.

Then, he finally took out the long spear and said:

"That's it."

Lu Changzhi examined the spear.

It must be said that Emperor Artifact are indeed extraordinary.

Although this Emperor Artifact spear was concealing its aura, its first impression was still quite stunning.

"That actually suits Gu Chen quite well."

Lu Changzhi thought of something, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face:

"Gu Chen has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel."

We've obtained the inheritance from the Emperor's Tomb, and now we've acquired another Emperor Artifact— a long spear.

"Is this what you meant?"

The Artifact Spirit of the spear spoke at this moment.

Lu Changzhi looked at the Emperor Conferment Chair:

"What's the meaning?"

Immediately, the Emperor Conferment Chair's voice was heard transmitted:

"I lied to him, saying there would be benefits if he came."

"He believed that?" Lu Changzhi asked rhetorically.

"Not only did I believe it, it also helped me corroborate it," the Artifact Spirit said.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi immediately rubbed his forehead and shook his head.

Who would have thought that the Artifact Spirit of a dignified Emperor Artifact would be in such a state? There's truth to everything.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Changzhi looked at the spear and said:

"Following my disciple will naturally bring benefits."

"Really?" the spear Artifact Spirit asked in return.

"Of course." Lu Changzhi nodded.

"Where is your disciple?" the spear Artifact Spirit asked directly.

Lu Changzhi finally couldn't help but laugh.

The account of the Artifact Spirit the Emperor Conferment Chair was told without any exaggeration.

The Artifact Spirit of this Emperor Artifact, the spear, is quite simple-minded.

"Go."

Lu Changzhi raised his hand, his spiritual energy enveloping the spear, and then flicked it.

Instantly, the spear was thrust diagonally into the room where Gu Chen was.

After doing all that, Lu Changzhi looked at the Dao Artifact again.

"It'll just gather dust if you leave it there."

After a moment of contemplation, Lu Changzhi had an idea:

"Let them choose first; take what they like, and give the rest to Zhong Ming."

Each person can only use, and is used to using, one or two types of things.

Besides, they don't have three heads and six arms.

But Zhong Ming was different; he had many people.

At that moment, Lu Changzhi gathered the rest of the people together.

After selecting and assigning tasks, Lu Changzhi's gaze swept over everyone, finally returning to Zhong Ming, and he said:

"You took the most; if you get recognized, you know what will happen?"

"I understand." Zhong Ming nodded.

"This is Liu Clan property. Since I can use it, then I am a member of the Liu Clan."

"That's right."

Lu Changzhi smiled and nodded, then returned to his Emperor Conferment Chair and snapped his fingers.

"Come on, to the spa."

In Gu Chen's room.

The sensation of the spear piercing through him brought Gu Chen back to his senses.

A quick glance... hmm, a long spear.

Upon closer inspection, Gu Chen's eyes widened immediately.

"Emperor Artifact?"

Gu Chen took a light breath.

He has been using Sacred Artifact, but this is a leap forward, bypassing the Dao Artifact stage.

Just then, Gu Chen sensed the Emperor Artifact spear's influence on him and immediately said:

"Artifact Spirit?"

"What's in it for me to follow you?" Long Spear asked bluntly.

Gu Chen was taken aback:

What benefits do you want?

"To become stronger, to be able to cultivate independently," said the spearman.

Gu Chen thought for a moment, then realized he had no ideas.

He had absolutely no idea about the methods for Artifact Spirit to cultivate independently.

However, the thought of his master gave Gu Chen a sense of confidence.

If I can't do it, surely my master can too?

"Okay," Gu Chen replied immediately.

"How do we do it?" The Artifact Spirit seemed to come alive.

"Wait a minute," Gu Chen said.

"This will definitely take some time; it depends on whether you can wait."

"Yes," the Artifact Spirit said.

After that, there was no further sound.

"This..."

Gu Chen was slightly taken aback, looking at the spear with some doubt.

Does this spear really trust me that much?

Shaking his head, Gu Chen withdrew his attention from the spear and returned it to the inheritance.

The way he's handling this spear makes it seem like he's just spouting nonsense.

I should focus on finishing this inheritance and improving my strength first.

Otherwise, it would truly be an empty promise, just as the Junior Brother Mu said.

Of course, the most important thing is to complete the task.

At that moment, Gu Chen focused on his cultivation once again.
