Li Cheng marveled quietly, "Seventh Senior Brother, how formidable!"

Light Destroying Heaven Venerable's mouth curved slightly, and he patted Li Cheng on the shoulder, "You ran all this way just for this kid? What's your relationship with him?"

Li Cheng smiled, "My disciple!"

Shock filled Lin Xiao's heart. The youth in front of him was the disciple of Light Destroying Heaven Venerable?

That... That would make him the...

Lin Xiao's thoughts raced, and he instantly guessed that the youth before him was the son of Confucius Ancestor!

Because the disciples of Confucius Ancestor were all significant figures in the Divine Realm, the seventh disciple, Light Destroying Heaven Venerable, and the eighth disciple were said to be at the Complete stage of the Divine Emperor's Realm, so the youth had to be the son of Confucius Ancestor!

And the son of Confucius Ancestor actually declared himself to be his disciple!

Without any hesitation, Lin Xiao knelt down, reverently kowtowing, "Disciple Lin Xiao, greets Master!"

Light Destroying Heaven Venerable chuckled in a teasing manner, "A disciple just taken in, not bad, not bad!"

"Greetings, Seventh Martial Uncle!"

Lin Xiao also gave a respectful kowtow to Light Destroying Heaven Venerable.

Light Destroying Heaven Venerable was momentarily speechless, then after thinking a bit, he took out a storage ring and stuffed it into Lin Xiao's hand, "You've already kowtowed, so as your martial uncle, naturally I have to give you a little gift. Take it."

Without waiting for Lin Xiao to speak, Light Destroying Heaven Venerable said to Li Cheng, "I have a lot of things to take care of on my end, so I'll be leaving first. You should leave Mysterious Fire's territory soon; that guy is a real jerk. Right now, you shouldn't provoke him."

Li Cheng gave an awkward smile and nodded, "Rest assured, Senior Brother!"

Li Cheng had already guessed that his senior brothers had probably left certain measures in place on him, so if he encountered any dangers, they would come to his aid based on those measures.

It could be said that he could almost do as he pleased in the Divine Realm!

Light Destroying Heaven Venerable smiled and vanished from sight.

Li Cheng also continued southward with Lin Xiao.

Elsewhere, Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable returned to the Heaven Venerable Mansion with a gloomy face, causing all his subordinates to be too afraid to breathe heavily.

Of his subordinates, the Four King Kongs, one, Chen Qingshan, had died, leaving only three.

The three signaled to the others in the mansion, who swiftly departed, and in a blink of an eye, only Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable and the three King Kongs remained.

"Heaven Venerable, with the fourth one gone, can this matter really end without consequence?" one of them asked.

Every mention of this affair made Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable grind his teeth with anger, and he coldly huffed, "It was the son of Confucius Ancestor who took the action. What can we do?"

The three exchanged glances; the second one asked, "Earlier, we sensed you, Heaven Venerable, personally made a move. Could it be you didn't manage to slay the son of Confucius Ancestor?"

"You didn't sense it when Light Destroying Heaven Venerable arrived, did you?" Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable said irritably.

Without waiting for them to say more, Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable continued, "Enough said. The vendetta for Chen Qingshan cannot be avenged. The disciples of Confucius Ancestor are all like plague gods, and to make matters worse, they are all obstinate bullies who would rather use their fists than reason with you. They are all extremely protective of their own, so do not provoke them."

The second one was somewhat unwilling, "So the fourth brother just died in vain?"

"Not in vain; his death has informed us of the terror of the son of Confucius Ancestor. He's only at the Complete stage of the Divine Venerable Realm and could slay a Pseudo Divine Emperor in such a short time. What do you think, how strong will the son of Confucius Ancestor be if he steps into the Divine Emperor's Realm?" Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable said.

The three looked at each other again, each reading amazement in the others' eyes. Divine Venerable at the Complete stage slaying a Divine Emperor?

This seemed almost like the talk of a madman.

But the fact was just so, making it unbelievably hard to accept!

"Confucius Ancestor is approachable and deeply respected by the Wan Race of the Divine Realm. Of his nine disciples, aside from the one he took on ten thousand years ago, the other eight are just shameless brutes who resort to fists over words at the slightest disagreement, so let's just drop the matter of Chen Qingshan."

"And you all, definitely do not provoke the son of Confucius Ancestor. Those eight brutes are terrifyingly strong and must have left their measures on him," Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable told the three.

The three sighed; they were all Pseudo Divine Emperors, and with Chen Qingshan so easily slain by Li Cheng, any of the three going against him would be seeking death.

They all heard it; even Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable was unwilling to provoke him.

So, naturally, the three of them did not dare to provoke him either.

The atmosphere in the room turned silent.

As if thinking of something, the second one hastily said, "Right, Heaven Venerable, shouldn't we pass on the word to prevent those below from causing trouble and provoking the son of Confucius Ancestor?"

Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable was startled, "You handle it!"

Having said his piece, Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable also disappeared from sight.

At this moment, Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable had merely concealed his presence, but the three were completely unable to detect him.

Mysterious Fire Heaven Venerable looked at the second one with great satisfaction, thinking to himself, "Luckily the second one reminded me. Indeed, if those below accidentally provoke the son of Confucius Ancestor, that would be problematic."

He agreed with what the second one had said, but it wouldn't be possible for him to personally instruct the three to handle it, as he had already lost face once; how could he instruct them on such matters again?

"Heaven Venerable has left. Big brother, second brother, what should we do?" the third one asked.

The second one took a deep breath and said, "I will personally handle it. Wherever the son of Confucius Ancestor goes, I will spread the word. Hopefully, this guy will leave the Twelve Mansion soon."

Li Cheng had already left Mansion Venerable City. He stopped in a beautiful mountain range and asked, "I forgot to ask you, do you have any unfinished business in Land's End Mansion?"

Lin Xiao hurriedly shook his head, "No, Master. Now that my family has been vindicated, and I have no living relatives, I have no concerns left."

Li Cheng smiled, "I had already accepted fourteen disciples before you, making you the fifteenth. These senior brothers and sisters are your family."

Lin Xiao was taken aback and quickly bowed, "Yes, Master!"
