All Those Pies the System Promised Weren't for Nothing

"You mustn't!"

At the critical moment, Fang Ling transmitted his voice.

The voice carried a hint of Sword Intent, Luo Zhen awake.

"Doing this is inappropriate and detrimental to your chances of becoming the Holy Son."

Fang Ling directly explained the stakes to Luo Zhen.

In fact, he was on Luo Zhen's side.

From the Luo Zhen arrived until now, to be honest, no matter how you look at it, he's gotten a huge bargain.

Such a uniquely gifted younger generation is almost unheard of.

The potential for growth is limitless.

With such a disciple, who wouldn't pay extra attention to him?

He had previously been reluctant to let Luo Zhen know that the Sword Immortal had arrived, actually out of selfishness that he didn't want to lose such a precious disciple.

After all, if Luo Zhen becomes a holy son and grows up, he, as Luo Zhen's master, will surely enjoy a lot of blessings.

However, the current situation is that Luo Zhen's qualifications and other aspects are sufficient, and some people, such as the Holy Lord, still have concerns about his loyalty.

In the current situation, Luo Zhen's words disrupt the atmosphere and will inevitably generate some negative opinions.

There is indeed a conflict between Luo Zhen and Qin Jiuxiao.

However, since Luo Zhen was his disciple, he naturally had to show him some favoritism.

In short, Luo Zhen should not be allowed to play the villain.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhen also paused.

Having stayed in the holy land for so long, and with Fang Ling's careful guidance on interpersonal relationships and social etiquette...

He was no longer as naive and ignorant as before.

A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan!

Lu Changzhi took in Luo Zhen's reaction.

Lu Changzhi found this somewhat amusing.

It seems the relationship between these two "leeks" (a metaphor for being exploited) isn't very good.

Of course, we had already seen some clues during the last time in the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range.

As the saying goes, two tigers cannot share one mountain.

The same principle applies to a piece of land and two leeks.

Lu Changzhi didn't see anything wrong with this.

That's perfect, so as to avoid ruining Qin Jiuxiao's life because of our good relationship. After all, he didn't have Nine Deaths and One Life, and he's actually the most robust one.

Putting his thoughts aside, Lu Changzhi turned to Qin Jiuxiao.

A slight nod is enough to acknowledge the response.

Qin Jiuxiao's eyes flickered slightly, a hint of disappointment flashing across them, but it vanished in an instant.

I thought this Sword Immortal would praise me or express his high regard for me.

Unexpectedly, he remained completely silent.

Perhaps this is just the way Sword Immortal act.

Having finally gotten a chance to offer a toast, they seemed somewhat reluctant to leave.

At this moment, on the other side, Luo Zhen picked up his wine glass, stood up, and spoke:

"Junior Luo Zhen has long admired the Sword Immortal Senior, and wishes to offer a toast to you."

A brief silence fell over the room upon hearing this.

It should be noted that, in the past, whether it was Huang Yunya, Fang Ling, or Qin Jiuxiao, there was always a reason for their toasts.

It's not that Luo Zhen couldn't offer a toast for that reason, but no matter what, he was still just a disciple.

If we're really going to show respect, it should be after the other elders.

This situation is somewhat inappropriate.

Huang Yunya frowned slightly, and the expressions of the other elders also changed.

But their changes were ultimately no match for Qin Jiuxiao's.

Almost as soon as Luo Zhen finished speaking, Qin Jiuxiao's expression suddenly changed.

The anger in his eyes almost shot directly into Luo Zhen's face.

He already disliked Luo Zhen.

In addition, recently, the Holy Land seems to be paying more attention to Luo Zhen than to himself.

He didn't bring himself when he went to the Five Symbols Sect before, but he brought Luo Zhen with him.

How long has Luo Zhen been here?!

He himself was the veteran quasi-saint, while the other was a newcomer.

What right do they have to provoke me and go against me!

Beside Qin Jiuxiao, the elder's expression changed slightly, and he quickly spoke up to warn him.

Huang Yunya also looked at Qin Jiuxiao, his brows furrowing even more noticeably than Luo Zhen's.

Relationships between people are very simple.

When you think he's good, even when he does bad things, it's all due to the charisma of a ruthless leader.

But if you think this person is not suitable...

For a moment, the atmosphere on the field became quite strange.

Lu Changzhi sighed with emotion at this:

"I'm so lucky to have transmigrated into the Five Symbols Sect."

This backstabbing and intrigue is so intense, just watching it gives me a headache, let alone participating in it.

He knew perfectly well what he was fighting for: the position of Holy Son of the Cloud Heaven Holy Land.

But this kind of thing...

For him, the Five Symbols Sect's system was still the most comfortable.

Ignoring Qin Jiuxiao's situation, Lu Changzhi turned his attention back to Luo Zhen.

After a moment, Lu Changzhi turned his attention to Fang Ling and said:

"Your disciple?"

Fang Ling nodded:

"Exactly."

"Hmm." Lu Changzhi nodded.

"You've taken on a fine disciple."

As he spoke, he picked up his wine glass.

When Lu Changzhi Luo Zhen "a good disciple," his eyes shone brightly.

At this moment, his expression can best be described with one idiom.

His face was beaming with glory.

Their chests seemed to stand up a bit higher without them even realizing it.

They said nothing, but they were conveying the same message:

I'm so proud!

Huang Yunya and the other elders all had a change of expression.

To be praised by Sword Immortal is quite an achievement; it takes real skill.

Especially considering the contrast with Qin Jiuxiao just now.

Luo Zhen tilted his head back and drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.

In fact, he hadn't expected Lu Changzhi to say that.

"It seems that even Sword Immortal recognizes my extraordinary nature."

As he pondered this, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.

Strike while the iron is hot.

Since the Sword Immortal has feelings for me, then...

The next moment, Lu Changzhi heard Luo Zhen's telepathic message:

"Senior, may I have the opportunity to cultivate under your guidance?"

"Um?"

Lu Changzhi was taken aback; it was unexpected.

But considering Luo Zhen's upbringing, saying that seems a bit conservative.

However, he only had one thought about this.

Don't get involved!

Just as he was about to refuse, a thought suddenly struck Lu Changzhi.

"I almost forgot about the [Impermanent Karma] talent."

At that moment, Lu Changzhi changed his mind and transmitted his voice:

"Become a saint first."

Upon receiving the answer, a sharp glint suddenly appeared in Luo Zhen's eyes.

No rejection, there's hope!

If that's the case, then the position of Holy Son...

I must take it down no matter what!

Seeing Luo Zhen's reaction, Lu Changzhi understood what was going on.

I've successfully created this pie in my sky.

The system isn't giving us all these freebies; we're not just eating them for nothing.

The main problem is that the quality of the things Luo Zhen gave himself was too limited.

The first time it was Spirit Rank sword, and the second time it was just a life-saving technique that Fang Ling had crafted.

Almost there. If I had become a Holy Son, the Holy Land would have given me many good things, and it would have been best if they had something unique.

Luo Zhen is doing well, and so am I.

A joyful and harmonious atmosphere.

"This trip wasn't a complete waste."

Thinking to himself, Lu Changzhi was quite satisfied.

I inspected the growth of the chives, reduced the possibility of them dying, and also fertilized them to promote their growth.

Just then, the system's voice suddenly sounded in Lu Changzhi's ear:

"Master, your precious Qin Jiuxiao is about to turn evil."
