"The most important thing is that the Divine World realm Master seems to contain nine complete Laws. Comprehending these Laws here will be remarkably effortless."
"No wonder Master looks down upon Divine Origin, I fear Divine Origin is at best a mere supplement to Master, nonessential..."
Liu Fengnian wandered everywhere until suddenly, he saw a massive space bubble in the sky. It seemed to have sealed a great world within!
Liu Fengnian was astounded and became gradually numb as time passed. Finally, his mind calmed down, and he hastened towards the World Divine Tree.
Seeing Liu Fengnian return, Li Cheng flipped his hand and instilled the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture and some basic knowledge into Liu Fengnian's mind, "As your teacher, I grant you this enlightenment, go and contemplate well."
Just like with Ye Yijian last time, Li Cheng used Enlightenment to bestow knowledge upon Liu Fengnian.
A few days later, Li Cheng left the Divine World, leaving Liu Fengnian behind to continue cultivating. He intended to bring him to the Ancestral Temple of Confucianism once back in the Confucian Sect.
As soon as Li Cheng appeared in the guest hall, Yi Kui immediately knelt down, holding the storage ring in both hands, and respectfully said, "Supreme Li, I really dare not accept this item, please take it back!"
Li Cheng shook his head with a smile, "Do you have the confidence to step into the Divine Emperor's Realm?"
Yi Kui suddenly looked embarrassed, "Supreme Li jests. I don't even have the possibility of reaching the Divine Venerable Realm, let alone the Divine Emperor."
Li Cheng nodded, "Therefore, you keep it, consider it a gift from my disciple."
Saying so, Li Cheng sat back down and took a sip of his tea.
The tea was freshly brewed, showing that Yi Kui had been changing it constantly, as he didn't know when Li Cheng would appear and could only keep making tea.
"You've made an effort; it's worth this piece of Divine Origin." Li Cheng glanced at the cup and then added.
Yi Kui opened his mouth, resolutely saying, "I will resign from the position of city lord and wish to serve beside Young Master Liu all my life!"
Li Cheng was taken aback, looking at Yi Kui in amazement and then shaking his head, "That's entirely unnecessary. Giving you Divine Origin was just a casual act, a coincidence."
Yi Kui seemed to have made up his mind, bowing deeply, "I have decided, I beg Supreme Li to grant this request!"
Grant this request, my foot. Even if this guy becomes a Pseudo Divine Emperor in the future, Li Cheng wouldn't care to accept such a Protector for his disciple.
Besides, his disciples don't need any Protectors!
Thinking this, Li Cheng said, "Just be a good city lord, assist Mansion Venerable well, and if you become a Divine Emperor in the future, then look after my seventh senior brother. That will be enough; the role of an attendant doesn't suit you."
Yi Kui hesitated, knowing full well that following Li Cheng was impossible for him. He didn't have that qualification!
That's why he had lowered his sights, hoping to follow Li Cheng's disciple instead.
But to his dismay, Li Cheng still didn't regard him highly!
With a silent sigh, Yi Kui said, "Yes, I will follow Supreme Li's arrangements!"
Li Cheng stood up and patted Yi Kui's shoulder, "You've managed to hold the position of city lord for tens of millions of years, showing your extraordinary ability. I have high hopes for you!"
Yi Kui smiled awkwardly and bowed, "Supreme Li overpraises me!"
"I'm preparing to leave Land Puppet Mansion. Could you do me a favor and pass on a message to Mansion Venerable City for me?" Li Cheng requested.
Yi Kui, flattered, bowed even lower, "Supreme Li, please command me. I dare not take the credit for such a task."
How could Yi Kui not know, a message could easily and quickly be sent with a Message Jade Slip, but why didn't Li Cheng send the message himself, instead asking him to make the trip?
That was because Li Cheng wanted the Mansion Venerable to value him highly!
"Find Mansion Venerable Blunt Empty and tell him I have had to leave Land Puppet Mansion due to some matters, and that I will come to visit another day." Li Cheng instructed.
Yi Kui maintained his bow, "Supreme Li, rest assured, I will not fail in this task!"
As soon as the words fell, Li Cheng's figure had already disappeared.
Yi Kui inwardly marveled, "Truly an extraordinary person who could cause an anomaly in the entire Divine Realm upon reaching the Divine Venerable level, he left without causing the slightest spatial disturbance."
"Moreover, the protective Divine Array of No Return City seemed to have no effect in front of Supreme Li. It seems his mastery in arrays is really as unfathomable as the rumors say!"
Murmuring to himself, Yi Kui hurriedly made his way to the Transmission Array, heading straight for Mansion Venerable City.
He knew this was an opportunity given to him by Li Cheng, and he naturally had to seize it.
Li Cheng left No Return City and stood in the sky, looking around, "Detect!"
[Consume 1 Enlightenment opportunity. One suitable disciple has been found, 30 billion miles away.]
A large arrow appeared in front of him, and without hesitation, Li Cheng followed it and instantly moved.
Soon, he passed through Xuankong Domain.
The Xuankong Domain honored the Xuankong Divine Dynasty, with the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty below it. Having not visited for many years, he wondered how Emperor Xuankong, Kong Linfeng, and Xiao Changting were doing.
With the distance to his next disciple still great, Li Cheng was in no rush and decided to first visit the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty, foregoing the Xuankong Divine Dynasty.
Li Cheng concealed his aura and arrived at the palace of the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty, where everything was as bustling as ever.
Within his Divine Sense, his small courtyard in the Demon-suppressing Department was still preserved.
Inside the Demon-suppressing Department, Kong Linfeng and Xiao Changting were playing a strategic game.
Xiao Changting now seemed a few years younger, his face brimming with smiles. He moved a piece and laughed, "Linfeng, grandchildren have their own blessings; stop overthinking it. If you keep being so distracted, you're going to lose."
Kong Linfeng sighed and said nothing.
Xiao Changting's smile grew even wider, "Beautiful! I'm about to beat you for the eighteenth time in a row. This is unprecedented!"
Kong Linfeng glanced at Xiao Changting, "Heartless!"
"What do you mean by heartless? I've already said that grandchildren have their own blessings. Your son likes being a monk, why force him otherwise? If it comes to it, just have another son." Xiao Changting joked.
Kong Linfeng sighed again, "It's all my fault!"
Xiao Changting put down the chess piece, "Now you realize your mistake? I told you before, but you insisted on intervening. That boy became so resentful that he left home, and now regret is useless. The best thing to do is to have another son."
"After all, that boy is now pure in all six senses and beyond redemption." Xiao Changting added.
"Are you referring to Monk Wumo? That dead monk is far from being pure in all six senses!" Li Cheng's voice sounded.
Xiao Changting and Kong Linfeng exchanged glances, their eyes revealing intense surprise, "Li Cheng!"
They both stood up in unison, with Kong Linfeng taking the chance to sweep the chess pieces from the board.
Li Cheng appeared before them and bowed, "Your Majesty, Venerable, long time no see!"
"Haha, what wind has brought you here? Please, have a seat!" Xiao Changting laughed warmly.
Just as he sat down, Xiao Changting momentarily glanced at the chessboard, then at Kong Linfeng, before finally turning to Li Cheng, "Look, this shameless fellow took the opportunity to..."
Before he could finish, Kong Linfeng had already taken out a set of tea wares and placed them on the board, smiling, "Li Cheng, your arrival is timely. Emperor Xuankong sent me some fine tea, try it!"
Xiao Changting's eyes bulged as he refused to be outdone, producing a jug of fine wine, "Don't listen to him. After so many years, we must welcome you with fine wine!"
"Li Cheng is a descendant of the Confucian Sect; drinking wine isn't proper. Tea is more appropriate!" Kong Linfeng stated seriously.
Seeing the two were about to argue, Li Cheng laughed, "What's with Monk Wumo? He's alright, isn't he?"
"That kid? Linfeng locked him up and is forcing him to return to secular life!" Xiao Changting laughed, putting away the fine wine.
Kong Linfeng nodded, "Li Cheng, you're right; that boy is not truly pure at heart; he's just a pseudo monk. Push him a bit, and I believe he'll renounce his vows."
Xiao Changting, sipping tea, picked up the conversation, "Back then, the boy fancied a girl from a commoner family, but Linfeng didn't approve, which led to what happened later."
Li Cheng glanced at Kong Linfeng, who quickly explained, "Back then, I thought it was a mismatch, as that boy was after all the crown prince, destined to take the throne. Marriage is serious business."
"But that's all in the past, and I regret it, although regret comes too late."
As he spoke, Kong Linfeng sighed again.
"How can it be too late? Has the woman that Monk Wumo fancied passed away?" Li Cheng asked.
