This Junior Is Willing to Follow Senior

All the demons bowed their heads and knelt before one man.

This scene was truly spectacular.

This immediately plunged countless people into a state of shock.

At this moment, Xue Lang stood up, bowed again towards Lu Changzhi's location, and then said:

"Thank you for sparing my life, senior. This little demon is out."

The sound boomed and echoed throughout the area, giving a considerable shock to the countless people present.

The change in this demon's attitude was truly astonishing.

This has led many to wonder what kind of methods could be used to train... no, educate such a monstrous creature.

After Xue Lang finished speaking, he also paid attention to the reactions of everyone present.

After hearing enough gasps of astonishment, I finally understood.

That's called giving him face; in Human Race parlance, it's called being a master of flattery.

Perhaps if this elder brother is satisfied, he might not just give me the scroll directly, but he could lower his requirements, which would be something to look forward to.

The Ancient Devil Scroll is of little use to Human Race, but for him, once he obtains it, even the Rapid Ascent that Human Race strive for would be insufficient to describe the speed at which he grows stronger.

Now that I've decided to work with my older brother, I'm prepared to do a good job!

On the other side, Lu Changzhi hadn't expected Xue Lang to cause such a commotion, but he didn't say much.

Although Xue Lang may have some tricks up his sleeve, he can easily control life and death with the help of the Ancient Devil Contract, so there's no need to worry too much about these things.

He nodded slightly.

Upon receiving the response, the surging Blood Devil immediately returned towards the void rift.

In an instant, like the receding tide, the once overwhelming number of Blood Devil rapidly diminished.

The crimson color quickly dissipated between heaven and earth, as if a mountain had been moved away, and a feeling of relief naturally arose in the hearts of everyone present.

"This demon is absolutely terrifying."

"Yes, thankfully, we encountered a powerful figure who came to our aid; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"Speaking of which, when did our Land of the Four Directions have such a powerful figure? Even the Saint King's very old self was forced to self-destruct, yet this demon was still not seriously injured. This demon must be a very strong Saint King, yet he was subdued by such strength. Just what level and power must this senior possess!"

"How could people like us possibly fathom such a thing? Perhaps it's a realm above the Saint King level, but I've never heard of it. What exactly lies beyond that?"

As the Xue Lang subsided, everyone's attention immediately turned to Lu Changzhi.

With the danger over, all that remained was relaxation, and in an instant, all sorts of speculations arose wildly in the telepathic communication.

At this moment, Zhou Mu took a deep breath, clearing his mind of distractions, and rose to mid-air, maintaining a height slightly lower than Lu Changzhi's. He bowed to Lu Changzhi and said:

"I am Zhou Mu, a pilgrim of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. I am grateful for your assistance today."

Such a momentous event required his presence and, as the emperor, he was bound to make a statement.

After a pause, Zhou Mu asked:

"I wonder if you have the time, senior? I hope you will linger a little longer so that the Holy Dynasty can express its gratitude for this matter."

The other powerful figures from the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty also looked on, their expressions filled with anticipation.

Expressing gratitude is genuine, but more importantly, it's best to use this opportunity to strengthen the relationship.

At this moment, the news that the venerable Emperor has self-destructed his cultivation and perished here cannot be kept secret.

This is definitely not good news for the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty.

Building closer relationships, even if it's impossible to actually achieve them, is extremely important to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty at present.

This place is mostly inhabited by people of high status and position in the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, so these matters were immediately on their minds.

No need to thank me.

Lu Changzhi shook his head slightly, then looked at Zhou Changshou.

Although Lu Changzhi's gaze could not be seen, the movements of the cloak were still very obvious.

Everyone turned to look at Zhou Changshou.

"Could this powerful figure be a friend or old acquaintance of the former emperor?"

Some people thought of it and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

Zhou Mu's uneasy feeling inexplicably intensified.

Suddenly, everyone heard a Buddhist chant.

"Amitabha."

"Esteemed benefactors, this item is destined for this humble monk."

The one who spoke was Lu Changzhi, and as his voice fell, he pointed one finger at Zhou Changshou below.

"Um?"

Everyone present was slightly taken aback.

This sounds somewhat familiar.

Zhou Mu followed the direction Lu Changzhi pointed, and when he saw that it was his father, his face twitched slightly.

Could the other person be referring to his father?

It's just that "wu" is used to describe things like utensils.

How could one's own father be a monster?

Of course, there is another possibility.

What the other party wanted was something from his father.

While Zhou Mu felt uncertain, Zhou Changshou had a strong feeling.

The other party was referring to himself.

However, the other party was a Buddhist Order monk, while he himself had only cultivated these things...

However, considering the practices of Buddhist Order in the Western Region, it seems that saying all crows are black doesn't necessarily mean anything.

With his concerns dispelled, a possibility flashed through Zhou Changshou's mind.

This senior colleague may have taken a liking to me.

Once the thought crossed his mind, he immediately mustered his strength and spoke:

"Thank you, senior. I am willing to follow in your footsteps."

His words caused a stir among those around him.

"What?! This powerful senior wants to take the old emperor as his disciple?!"

"Shh, don't talk nonsense. It's just following, not becoming a disciple. You need to be clear about that. Otherwise, if you accidentally offend a senior, you can look forward to crying in your next life!"

"Hiss, I never expected that His Majesty, at such an advanced age, would actually benefit from this misfortune. It seems that His Majesty is one of those people who achieve great things late in life and enjoys a blessed old age."

Everyone present was extremely excited.

What this means is enough to make anyone incredibly excited just by thinking about it!

"Good."

Lu Changzhi nodded slightly and said:

"Since it's a mutual agreement, let's begin."

A thought struck everyone again.

What should we begin?

It's highly likely that it's to heal the old emperor's injuries, since the old emperor has lost both arms and one leg, his physical body is severely damaged, and his aura is extremely weak.

I wonder what kind of methods this incredibly powerful expert possesses.

"Could it be that severed limbs are regenerating?"

As everyone was pondering this, they saw a figure raise his hand and wave it, instantly using force to lift Zhou Changshou up.

The next moment, all the powerful figures present felt an incredibly powerful mental force that moved them, which transformed into an invisible and terrifying palm that fell towards Zhou Changshou's location.

This action immediately drew a chorus of sighs and reflections.

A strong person is a strong person; with a casual move, they make others feel they cannot catch up.

"However, this doesn't seem to be for healing the physical body. Using such mental power, could it be that the old emperor...?"

As the powerful figure was speaking, his voice suddenly paused, then turned into a shocked curse:

"Holy crap, how did the old emperor's soul get crushed?!"
