Huang Jiuzhao's Weighty Fatherly Love
The one transmitting the message was none other than Huang Zhan.
Lu Changzhi looked over.
Then he saw Huang Zhan smiling and nodding at him.
At that moment, Lu Changzhi couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and replied with a smile:
"I truly cannot refuse Your Majesty's invitation."
"Haha." Huang Zhan laughed and said:
"It seems that you are indeed someone who knows how to enjoy life, just as Jiuzhao said. In that case, our Huang Clan will always welcome your visit."
"OK."
Lu Changzhi nodded and said:
"I'll visit you another day after the Law Contemplation Gathering."
"Then we'll await your arrival, young friend."
After Huang Zhan finished speaking, he turned and said:
"There's one more thing I'd like to ask for your help with, young friend."
Lu Changzhi wasn't too surprised, but felt that the speed at which the true intentions were revealed was somewhat familiar. He nodded and said:
"Please speak freely, Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, Huang Zhan got straight to the point:
"Jiuzhao has been strong-willed since childhood, and his talent and strength are quite considerable, but because of his environment, he hasn't suffered many setbacks. If you have some free time, young friend, you can help him beat him up a few more times and put Jiuzhao in a bad position, so he doesn't have it too easy."
Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi couldn't help but glance at Huang Jiuzhao, who was standing next to Huang Zhan and had yet to realize the depth of his father's love.
Yes, biologically related.
No wonder he's his biological father.
In response, Lu Changzhi smiled and said:
"The senior's son is quite talented and strong. It would be difficult for me to deal with him, but since the senior has spoken, I will try my best."
Huang Zhan nodded. "Then I'll have to trouble you, young friend."
After speaking, Huang Zhan gestured and looked away, ceasing further conversation.
While Lu Changzhi was deeply moved by Huang Jiuzhao's profound paternal love, he was also very clear-headed.
The other party's main objective is probably to find out my strength.
However, for the leader of a powerful force, this is only human nature and there is nothing wrong with it.
Moreover, he had to admit that the way the other party invited him was truly impressive.
On the other hand, after exchanging Huang Zhan with Lu Changzhi, Huang Zhan's opinion of Lu Changzhi was much higher.
Seeing is believing; once seen, one senses its extraordinary nature.
One's aura and level of attainment can be concealed, but some things, such as temperament and how one treats others, cannot be hidden.
The cultivation techniques he practiced in the Huang Clan gave him an invisible aura that, even without being deliberately displayed, would affect ordinary juniors and those whose cultivation level was lower than his to some extent.
However, he did not sense this in the young man. On the contrary, the young man spoke eloquently and appeared extremely calm. What was even more remarkable was that, according to the information Huang Jiuzhao obtained from Lu Yuan, this young man was only eighteen years old.
At such a young age, with such composure, coupled with Lu Yuan's attitude towards the boy, it was almost certain that behind him stood a true powerhouse, or a powerful force.
In fact, this boy might not even be from this area.
In short, after seeing it with his own eyes, Huang Zhan already had a clear understanding of the situation.
Jiuzhao has likely encountered a benefactor this time.
As for what happens next, we'll have to see what kind of influence this young man can demonstrate.
Lu Yuan is no ordinary person; anyone who can command such treatment from him must possess extraordinary qualities.
Although he was a Pseudo Saint Emperor, Lu Yuan's influence was indeed astonishing.
It even became the focus of the entire event at one point.
For a time, it even significantly impacted the attention garnered by other forces and powerful individuals.
Lu Yuan reacted calmly to this.
There's nothing you can do about this; it's best to just stay silent.
Public opinion is a fearsome thing.
If he hadn't fought that battle with Lu Lulu back then, he might indeed have been able to reach the Saint Emperor within a thousand years.
But there are no "what ifs" in life.
However, he didn't regret it.
Although his battle with Lu Lulu had a profound impact, it ultimately gave him the opportunity to avoid being narrow-minded and complacent.
The only downside is that everyone now sees him as Saint Emperor. If he doesn't explain, things will only get worse. If he does explain, he'll have to stand up for him. He's very clear about the difference in effect between Saint Venerable and Saint Emperor —just one word.
For now, I'll just ignore it.
However, some things obviously cannot be achieved simply by wishing for them.
"Lu Yuan, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. I imagine you have already taken that step beyond the Saint Emperor. After our battle back then, you have gone much further than I have. Congratulations."
The speaker was Xiang Li's father, Xiang Ge.
As his voice fell, the sounds around him temporarily slowed down, and then they all became somewhat strange and emotional.
"There was indeed such a battle; if it weren't brought up, it would almost be forgotten."
"Yes, I just remembered that I seem to have seen some records. Many years ago, the Xiang Clan chief did indeed spar with Senior Lu. However, I remember that Senior Lu seemed to have lost back then?"
"He did lose, and it was when Senior Lu was at the height of his power that he suffered his first complete defeat. Back then, the Xiang Clan Chief was truly strong; even Lu Yuan was no match for him. However, so many years have passed, and times have changed. The two are now at different levels, which is truly regrettable."
Many people who knew more about it also started discussing the topic.
As for Lu Yuan, who was at the center of the conversation, he looked at Xiang Ge after hearing what Xiang Ge said, seemingly lost in thought.
After a few breaths, Lu Yuan finally spoke, nodding and saying:
"It's nothing, just a bit luckier, nothing to mention."
As soon as the words were spoken, the crowd erupted in uproar.
This is tantamount to a personal confirmation that he has become the Saint Emperor.
From Saint Venerable to Saint Emperor, countless powerful figures throughout history have been stuck in this position, unable to advance even until their death.
Those who can enter the Saint Emperor are all outstanding individuals, Fortune Upon the Body and possessing extraordinary talent.
Lu Changzhi, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but shake his head secretly upon hearing this.
He personally got involved in the installation.
But it's fine, he does need this effect now.
On the other side, after hearing what Lu Yuan said, a shadow flashed across Xiang Ge's eyes.
He didn't continue looking at Lu Yuan, but instead looked at Lu Changzhi beside him and said:
"The man next to you, that must be your son, right?"
"He doesn't look quite like you, but he's probably just as warlike as you were back then."
"Now that we are old, it is the world of the younger generation. If there is an opportunity, we can let Li'er have a match with him, so that the world can witness her talent."
As soon as the voice fell, countless forces all around, inclined to or dependent on the Xiang Clan, echoed it, adding to the atmosphere.
Even some individuals or forces with weak ties to either side have shown a keen interest in this.
After all, it's hard not to be enthusiastic about watching a spectacle.
