Senior, Here, Have Some Meat

This is what everyone is looking forward to.

Another night has passed.

The day for the Law Contemplation Gathering to officially begin has arrived.

Early in the morning, one could immediately sense that the city had become unusually lively.

Centered on the Academy, several high platforms rise up and are suspended in mid-air. In addition, several other platforms are scattered around the Academy in a staggered manner.

Each Dao Contemplation Gathering attracts countless people. With tens of thousands or even more practitioners, providing a building where everyone can observe the Dao is clearly not a simple task.

However, as a cultivator's strength increases, their perception also improves.

Fortunately, this open-air format is the most suitable one.

For once, Lu Changzhi got up very early.

The main purpose was to witness the grandeur of this relatively large space.

It has to be said, it was truly quite shocking.

Aside from the ground, cultivators could be seen everywhere in the air, standing in mid-air.

All around, practitioners from the Academy could be seen maintaining Order.

"If it were a less prestigious faction, it would probably fall into complete chaos very easily."

Speaking softly, Lu Changzhi glanced at Mu Fan and the others, and said:

"Let's go, let's find a place too."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuan flipped over two plaques:

"I received two plaques yesterday, one from the Academy and the other from the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. Which one do you want to choose?"

Lu Changzhi couldn't help but glance at Lu Yuan again, and exclaimed in admiration:

"The senior is indeed shrewd; I didn't expect you to be prepared."

In response, Lu Yuan said:

"In that case, how about some tangible reward?"

Lu Changzhi was at a loss for words, both amused and exasperated.

It feels like Lu Yuan is going around in circles, torturing me.

However, this did save a lot of effort, given the current chaotic situation.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Changzhi flipped his hand, took out a piece of Black Dragon jerky, and handed it to Lu Yuan, saying:

"Senior, come on, have some meat."

As soon as the voice fell, Mu Fan, who was standing to the side, suddenly looked over, his face a mixture of disbelief and disbelief. Then, as if he had figured something out, he muttered to himself:

"Indeed, compared to Master, who is probably tens of thousands of years old, someone a thousand years old does seem like a child."

Lu Yuan's lips twitched, and he gave Lu Changzhi a deep look, which carried a hint of "you've won."

Lu Changzhi laughed heartily at this:

"It's a limited edition; if you don't eat it, it'll be gone."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a gust of wind blew by, and the dried meat came into Lu Yuan's hand.

After taking a bite, Lu Yuan suddenly stopped, his expression shifting slightly as he looked at Lu Changzhi:

"What kind of meat is this?"

"Black Dragon," Lu Changzhi said.

"The Black Dragon Clan is not to be trifled with." Lu Yuan gave Lu Changzhi a deep look, then asked again:

"Did you make this meat?"

Lu Changzhi gestured to Luo Ling'er and smiled:

"My disciple, what do you think? Isn't he good?"

Lu Yuan nodded:

"It's pretty good, but why is it a limited edition?"

Lu Changzhi shook his head:

"The Black Dragon supplier is gone."

Lu Yuan didn't ask any more questions, seemingly lost in thought.

Lu Changzhi smiled:

"What, senior, do you have some ideas?"

"The relationship between the Black Dragon and Human Race is extremely poor, and the Black Dragon Clan is quite powerful." Lu Yuan shook his head.

"But we could try to borrow some meat from them."

Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.

This sounds just like the system.

Without dwelling on the matter any longer, Lu Changzhi took out another piece of dried meat and gave it to Lu Yuan, then picked out the token given to him by the Myriad Laws Academy.

No need to look around for a spot; you can simply find a seat on the surrounding elevated platform and enjoy an excellent view.

Having a strong background and resources usually allows one to obtain treatment that is difficult to obtain otherwise, and this is also true here.

A short while later, they took their seats on the high platform, where they could see the entire view below.

Those who can sit on a high platform are invariably of extraordinary status.

The group's seating quickly attracted a lot of attention.

"Those who can ascend to that high platform are said to be solitary powerhouses, and these few should be among them, though it's unclear which side they belong to."

"That man's face seems somewhat familiar, like I've seen him somewhere before, but I can't quite place it."

"I seem to have some recollection of him, but... um? I remember now, that seems to be... that Sparring Maniac Saint Lu Yuan from back then?"

"Hiss, now that you mention it, it does seem to make sense. But how could that be? Didn't he disappear from the public eye a long time ago and rarely show his face? Is that really the case?"

"After all, this time there's the element of Prophet involved, making it somewhat special. It's not surprising that Senior Lu appeared. Besides, look at the Huang Clan's side. Huang Jiuzhao's eyes when he came over, and the Huang Clan Family Head's nodding in agreement, so there's definitely no mistake."

"My goodness, this trip was definitely worthwhile! I actually got to see it in person!"

"But who is that young man next to Senior Lu?"

"Could he be a junior of Senior Lu?"

"How could that be? Look at them, if you put them in a painting, the styles would be completely different. It's definitely not them." Someone shook their head and said.

"Moreover, when they walked over and sat down, the young man was in the most central position, while Senior Lu Yuan's position wasn't the most important. Judging from this, that handsome young man must be someone of great importance."

"Senior Lu is said to be able to reach the Saint Emperor within a thousand years. Now that so much time has passed, he should have reached the Saint Emperor by now, right? To have a Saint Emperor Realm expert as an assistant, if it's really just because of his status, then what kind of status must he have!"

As the discussions grew louder and the crowd became dense, Lu Changzhi and Lu Yuan's location quickly became a focal point of attention.

The most important reason is undoubtedly related to Lu Yuan's realm of cultivation.

Nowadays, most of the discussions are just speculation; even if Lu Yuan hasn't become Saint Emperor, he's definitely one foot in the door.

In short, they all basically viewed him as Saint Emperor.

The various powerful forces that came were all only at the Saint Venerable Realm.

Under such circumstances, the Saint Emperor's personal presence is bound to attract considerable attention.

Lu Changzhi overheard quite a bit of this discussion and couldn't help but think that perhaps it was the right thing for him not to agree to Lu Yuan becoming his disciple.

The whole situation is contrary to the sect's ancestral teachings. They are actually at the Ninth Layer of Saint Venerable, but outsiders treat them like Saint Emperor.

The sect wanted to keep more secrets, but Lu Yuan was doing the opposite.

Just then, a voice transmission sounded in Lu Changzhi's ear, saying:

"Thank you for your kindness to Jiuzhao, young friend. If you have time in the future, you are welcome to visit my Huang Clan family. My ancestors once found a bed that was so comfortable to lie on and so sweet to sleep on. If you like it, you may take it with you."
