Luo Zhen: "I Won't Let Everyone Down, Either"

As soon as the voice faded, the person replied:

"Your Majesty, the spear was found in the storage ring, and no defects have been found yet."

Zhou Mu nodded without saying anything.

At this moment, the visitor said again:

"It is said that there may be even higher-grade treasures in the cities within the secret realm. Should we explore them?"

"It's too late." Zhou Mu said calmly, then paused and added:

"Step down."

"Yes."

The person who had come got up and left.

Zhou Mu then fiddled with the jade talisman in his hand.

He naturally knew about the cities within the secret realm.

But taking those things from the city is easier said than done.

In contrast, he has better methods at his disposal.

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; why not do it?

With the Privilege Token in place, the greatest gains will undoubtedly belong to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty.

The only drawback is that this Privilege Token only exists in this one part.

However, it's enough.

In a luxurious private room at a restaurant in Heaven's Chosen City.

A group of core disciples from the Cloud Heaven Holy Land gathered together.

At the head of the table sat Luo Zhen.

At this moment, he held a wine glass, looking relaxed and exuding an air of confidence and charisma.

"Come, Senior Brother Luo, let me toast you again, wishing you great luck and a resounding victory on this journey to the secret realm."

"Senior Brother Luo, let me also raise a toast. If this secret realm expedition goes smoothly, I reckon I'll have to address you as Holy Son Luo from now on when we get back."

"Absolutely, absolutely. Given how much the sect leader and elders value Senior Brother Luo, I think there's no doubt about it."

Everyone toasted each other, creating a lively atmosphere.

It wasn't a victory celebration banquet.

Rather, it was for the upcoming journey to the secret realm.

Going it alone may offer all the advantages, but the risks are only greater if danger arises.

Having someone to help might make things much safer.

Of course, you shouldn't choose the weak ones.

Those weaker than oneself are called burdens.

However, it's not easy to win over those who are stronger or much stronger than oneself.

In addition, one's social status cannot be low; in fact, it is even more important to some extent.

Luo Zhen is clearly the most suitable choice.

Given his status as a potential Holy Son, the Holy Land would undoubtedly place great importance on him and would certainly possess numerous powerful methods to counter him.

Although his cultivation level isn't high, to become a quasi-saint, he must possess some powerful methods, such as unique skills.

Moreover, if their strength is too great, they might not be willing to pay attention to them.

On the contrary, Luo Zhen had not been in the public eye for long, and his inner circle was not yet fixed. Compared to other quasi-holy sons whose circles were basically fixed, he was obviously much easier to approach.

In addition, after the incident not long ago where he was holding a blue ball and looking at something, some well-informed people clearly sensed that the Holy Lord and other elders had changed their attitude towards Luo Zhen.

It is very likely that the position of Holy Son will belong to Luo Zhen.

Time is running out to establish a holy son.

They should cultivate good relations now, so that when Luo Zhen truly becomes the Holy Son, they can also benefit from his success.

After another round of toasts, Luo Zhen stood up, glanced at everyone present, and said:

"Thank you all for your support. Since you have so much faith in me, I will certainly not let you down."

"Cheers to the spoils of the secret realm!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Zhen raised his wine glass.

"Cheers!"

Everyone raised their glasses together, drank to their hearts' content, and enjoyed themselves immensely.

On the city street.

"That's about it."

Looking at the sky, Lu Changzhi thought to himself.

They weren't out for very long.

Since the simplification was completed, the results have indeed been outstanding.

Every now and then you'll see a little hand waving at you, as if saying, "Come on, come on."

As a result, some opportunities of varying quality were gained.

In addition, you can also see some small palms.

However, Lu Changzhi did not continue to investigate.

Too many attempts result in a significant loss of experience points.

For some people, however, opportunities are less valuable than experience.

That's all for today.

That's it for today, time to head home!

The secret realm is scheduled to open tomorrow at noon.

To this day, the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty has still not appeared.

This is both unexpected and intriguing.

The skill level of the monks from the Western Region has been witnessed by all sides; it remains to be seen whether the younger generation of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty will surpass them.

As everyone waited, the night slowly passed.

The next day, early in the morning, the entire Heaven's Chosen City was already in an uproar.

The Struggle of the Heaven's Chosen is finally about to begin!

Countless people emerged from the houses, and in an instant, the area was bustling with activity.

"Knock knock knock!"

A bell rang, startling everyone present.

"Look!"

Someone exclaimed in surprise and pointed to a spot.

In the distance, a colossal palace, like a floating island, slowly approached.

"Hiss--"

A series of gasps rippled through the crowd, mixed with incredulous exclamations:

"Holy crap, this is amazing!"

"Such a grand undertaking, on such a scale, could never have been accomplished through ordinary means."

"As expected of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, their very entrance alone is enough to overwhelm all others."

Such a sight is hard not to be awestruck.

As they approached the palace, everyone's attention turned to the people inside.

Soon, someone exclaimed in surprise:

"These are all purple-gold symbols; they actually belong to three Saint Realm experts!"

Lu Changzhi's gaze also fell upon the three of them.

With the help of the information provided by Cang Wenyu, he roughly knew the situation on the side of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty.

The one in the middle is none other than the current Emperor of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, Zhou Mu.

To their left and right, judging from their names, were none other than the leaders of the Battle Hall and the Punishment Hall, both of whom were also at the Saint Realm.

It must be said that even without displaying the aura of the Saint Realm expert, the sheer power of three Saint Realm experts standing together was still awe-inspiring.

This was especially true for the people in the city.

The Saint Realm is practically the pinnacle of existence in Land of the Four Directions.

The Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, however, sent three people to appear at once.

At that moment, many people felt for the first time, so strongly and intuitively, what the gap between power truly meant.

Although everyone knows that there are no fewer than three Saint Realm experts in both the Northern Region and Western Region.

But knowing something is one thing, but it can never compare to seeing it with your own eyes.

Despite the shock of the crowd, Lu Changzhi's gaze did not linger on the three of them for long.

The group was led by three people, followed by many elders and powerful figures.

The younger generation of boys and girls were seated in the side halls on either side.

A glance around revealed that these younger colleagues also wore badges on their chests.

There were five leaders on each side, all with purple badges to distinguish them from the others behind them.

"Exactly ten. These must be the ten prodigies of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty they were discussing."

Lu Changzhi spoke softly, his expression slightly shifting.

The next moment, he thought to himself:

"System, activate Accomplice Identification."

A short while later, a green light appeared.

This time, Lu Changzhi suddenly froze:

How could that be?
