Chapter 421: The Unbeatable Strategy Against Formidable External Foes
Before the majestic Hanyu Mountain, the disciples were filled with great excitement.
Although they all maintained self-discipline and composure, upon witnessing the true countenance of Emperor Yan, they were still deeply moved.
And in the face of Lianshan Jing's smile, Xiao Ai explained, "These disciples are from the Fire Pass Country and hold tremendous admiration for the lord. Therefore, on this occasion of the lord's visit, we have brought them here to broaden their horizons and provide them with an opportunity to express their gratitude and appreciation to the lord."
"After all, without the support of the lord, they wouldn't be able to come to Hanyu Mountain. These disciples owe their current fortunes to the lord and are truly grateful."
Saying this, Xiao Ai turned to the disciples behind her and said, "Why don't you express your gratitude to the lord?"
The disciples promptly bowed and respectfully expressed, "We sincerely thank the esteemed lord for his great kindness! We shall never forget it, for all eternity!"
Lianshan Jing burst into hearty laughter, shaking her head and waving her hand, saying, "That's enough, that's enough. It is truly a stroke of luck for all of you to be accepted as disciples under the tutelage of the Wolf God. In the days to come, focus on cultivating yourselves, vanquishing demons, and protecting against evil. That would be the best way to show your gratitude to me."
Saying this, Lianshan Jing, amidst the widened eyes of the disciples, smiled and patted Gu Yan's shoulder, saying, "Gu Yan, it has only been a few years, and you have already transformed into a human… It seems like you have indulged in the fruits of the Wolf God quite a bit."
Upon hearing Lianshan Jing's words, Gu Yan couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. He awkwardly chuckled and replied, "I have actually been diligently cultivating, sister. Please don't underestimate me like that. It's not like I can only transform into a human because of the blessings from the Wolf God…"
Gu Yan stubbornly maintained his stance, even calling her "sister" in the process, thus clarifying this relationship.
This left the disciples completely bewildered. They never expected that Gu Yan, their senior apprentice, would be so audacious as to take advantage of Emperor Yan in plain sight of everyone. Wouldn't their master be furious about this?
However, as the disciples looked towards Xiao Ai, they saw her standing there with an indifferent expression, without uttering a word of rebuke. It seemed that Gu Yan, their senior apprentice, had not done anything wrong.
Furthermore, Lianshan Jing smiled and said, "How much of the weight was carried by you, my dear? Your sister here is well aware of that. But I must admit, this human form you have taken is quite handsome, almost a spitting image of our dear father."
Lianshan Jing pinched Gu Yan a few times, assessing him and remarking, "Strong muscles, excellent physique… what a fine physical form you possess."
Lianshan Jing couldn't help but sigh in admiration, while the fiery serpent coiled around her body curiously stared at Gu Yan's appearance, its snake-like tongue flickering in and out.
With this turn of events, all the disciples were dumbfounded.
Because the scene before their eyes proved one thing: the most seemingly immature and unreliable Gu Yan, who appeared that way in their daily interactions, was actually the legitimate son of the late emperor? The younger brother of the current lord?
This… So, everything that Master Gu said was actually true?
The disciples, for a moment, found it nearly impossible to accept this reality. They were all stunned and speechless.
However, they had no room left to speak after that. With just a few casual words, Xiao Ai made the disciples step back, and then personally accompanied Lianshan Jing as they set foot on the main peak of the Wolf God Temple.
In the end, these disciples were unable to meet their deeply revered ancestor and could only obediently return to the lakeside of the back mountain. But even though they couldn't see Lu Heng, today they had the extraordinary opportunity to meet Emperor Yan, their Highness. This left them tremendously excited, and they chattered incessantly on their way back.
Even the several middle-aged disciples, who were much more mature, were now slightly overwhelmed, filled with happiness and excitement.
On the other side, as Lianshan Jing arrived at the entrance of the Wolf God Temple with Xiao Ai by her side, she caught sight of Lu Heng, dressed in white robes, standing in front of the temple with a gentle smile.
They were long-time friends, there was no need for formalities and polite gestures. After Sun Yan and the others retreated, Lu Heng sat with Lianshan Jing in the pavilion and began discussing the matters related to the River Map and the Luo Book. novelbuddy. com
However, during their conversation, Lu Heng discovered that Lianshan Jing was completely unaware of the true nature of the world…
Based on Lu Heng's understanding, Lianshan Jing, who is Emperor Yan, serves as the earthly representative of the Fire God, essentially being half of a Fire God. As a representative, Lianshan Jing should also be aware of the ancient secrets known to the Fire God.
Upon detailed inquiry, it was revealed that the Fire God was actually injured during ancient times. Currently, the Fire God experiences moments of confusion and moments of clarity, with a majority of time spent in a state of confusion and very little time in a state of clarity.
Having understood the situation, Lu Heng couldn't help but sigh and, without concealing anything, revealed the true nature of the Celestial Desolation Realm to Lianshan Jing.
After listening to it, Lianshan Jing was dumbfounded, never having anticipated that the truth behind this world could be so utterly despairing.
Amidst the desolate chill of an autumn day, the red-haired woman lowered her head and murmured, "Such a world truly fills one with despair. No wonder the Fire God never insists on being worshipped, only sheltering those who willingly believe in Him… In such a desperate world, even with extraordinary divine abilities, the Fire God finds it difficult to protect everyone."
Lianshan Jing felt a mixture of emotions and sighed, deeply moved by the information shared by Lu Heng, which completely overturned all her previous perceptions of the world.
Although ever since she met Lu Heng, her understanding and conventional knowledge have been continuously overturned by Lu Heng.
However, the impact that Lu Heng brought to her this time was far greater than ever before.
However, Lianshan Jing, being resilient in nature after all, though shaken by the ruthless truth of the world, quickly gathered her emotions and steadied her mind, smiling as she said, "In moments like these, the advantage of being short-lived becomes apparent. I may not have the longevity of the Wolf God, but as long as I live this life well, that is enough."
"Even though the Earthly Catastrophe is terrifyingly brutal, and the merciless enemies beyond the realm are difficult to confront, those things are not something I need to worry about."
"It cannot be just my luck that I encounter the Earthly Catastrophe during my tenure, right?"
Lianshan Jing smiled and said, "By the time the Earthly Catastrophe truly descends, I would have long transformed into a cup of yellow clay. There is no need to worry about what comes after… Hahaha… It is indeed the long-lived and formidable beings like the Wolf God who should be concerned about the calamities of heaven and earth. Truly, the capable ones have more responsibilities."
"For the first time in my life, I have discovered that having a lower cultivation level and shorter lifespan also has its advantages, hahaha…"
Lianshan Jing burst into laughter repeatedly, her mood relaxing.
However, while she modestly considers herself of lower cultivation, Lu Heng knows that in terms of cultivation level, Lianshan Jing should be the most powerful among all the Emperors Yan throughout history.
Not to mention her father Lianshan Kui, even the Emperors Yan of previous generations, who are more distant in time than Lianshan Kui, none of their cultivation levels could reach the realm achieved by Lianshan Jing.
Therefore, the Erba God Man, who had been rampaging the South Sea for many years without anyone being able to restrain him, suffered such a disastrous defeat in her hands…
The Lord of All Demons, who resides in the Green Hell Cave, possesses remarkable foresight and a talented group of subordinates. However, they still harbor deep concerns regarding Lianshan Jing's formidable strength, refraining from making any reckless moves…
With her cultivation reaching the current realm of godly transcendence, Lianshan Jing can truly be deemed unparalleled, beyond any predecessors.
However, despite her high cultivation, her adherence to the spiritual path indeed presents a drawback in the form of a relatively short lifespan.
However, she remains completely indifferent to this fact, bursting into hearty laughter.
Confronted with her slightly mischievous and carefree attitude, Lu Heng could only helplessly force a bitter smile, finding himself momentarily at a loss for words to retort. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝙗𝙣𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝒐𝓶
After all, what Lianshan Jing said does indeed make a lot of sense.
Among the methods that render formidable adversaries from beyond the realm powerless against you, the simplest one is to meet your end before their arrival…
