"Heh."
Luo Tiance laughed at himself.
"What am I being greedy about? Having the chance to obtain Zhuxian is already the opportunity of a lifeti, why long for more? I should be content," he said.
"Grandpa..." Luo Yu tried to speak, but was interrupted by Luo Tiance, "Grandpa understands you. You young people are all perfectionists; it’s disappointing if you can’t collect them all, isn’t it? But don’t be sad; who knows what the future might hold? Although the chances are extrely slim."
Luo Yu stopped talking and waved his hand.
"Swish, swish, swish—"
Red, purple, and green Godly Swords flew out from within him, emanating a potent, ancient charm as if they had been blessed over countless years—and had been through countless slaughters. When they appeared, even the State-Defending Divine Sword began to emit a trembling sword hum.
Luo Tiance, who had been feeling regretful and was consoling Luo Yu, was now watching the three divine swords hover in front of his grandson, nearly smacking into his face.
With his keen eyes, it was obvious to him that the newly appeared swords, while different in aura from Zhuxian, were clearly of the sa caliber.
"This... this..."
Luo Yu chuckled slyly.
"Isn’t this just a coincidence, Grandpa?"
"The Four Slay-Immortal Swords... it seems I have them all..."
Luo Tiance was utterly dumbfounded.
Had it not been for his incredibly strong ntal resilience, he would have been as emotionally explosive as any ordinary person, swearing in his head.
He had just ntioned having regrets.
And then his grandson goes and whips out the Four Slay-Immortal Swords? Does the "Jian" family need to lay out all their swords so perfectly in front of them?
Wake up; these are not ordinary treasures. Each one could cause a worldwide sensation and a fight to the death.
He forcibly composed himself and said with a steady mind,
"It’s a pity, though. The legend goes that a complete set of the Slay-Immortal Sword Array still requires..."
"Are you talking about this, Grandpa?" Luo Yu produced a palm-sized jade stone from his sleeve, its innards swirling with yin and yang, the five elents, and the Bagua, sheens of light flowing through it, even without being activated.
Luo Tiance’s mouth hung open, a voice erging from his throat, "You’re not trying to tell that’s the diagram for the Slay-Immortal Sword Array, are you?"
"It is indeed the diagram," Luo Yu affird.
At Luo Yu’s confirmation, Luo Tiance clamped his mouth shut, his eyes reddening and even streaked with blood.
If the person before him was not his grandson, he would have wanted to strike him dead with a sword first, then seize the treasures and erase all evidence.
A storm of emotions, the equivalent of a category 12 hurricane, raged inside Luo Tiance.
Incredible talent, unbeatable treasures; does his grandson have any flaws at all?
What, lecherous?
With such abilities, what’s wrong with a bit of lust, huh? Tell , what’s wrong?
"Good grandson, make sure nobody finds out about your treasures, or else..." Luo Tiance felt his lips dry up and licked them.
"Ahem, ahem."
Luo Yu blinked, "Is it possible that this is just the tip of the iceberg of my wealth?"
"What?" Luo Tiance’s eyeballs bulged out, "You call this the tip of the iceberg? You call having a complete Slay-Immortal Sword Array the tip of the iceberg?"
"You guess?" Luo Yu’s mouth curled up in a smile, enjoying his little mischief. After all, the old man had just been so secretive with him.
Luo Tiance took a deep breath and shook his head.
"Good grandson, don’t reveal these treasures until you’ve fully grown. Otherwise, the entire world would go mad, and even Grandpa wouldn’t be able to protect you."
"It’s not that Grandpa is afraid," Luo Tiance said, shaking his head, "If you truly exhibit these treasures, the world should fear your potential, and they’d go to any lengths to deal with you. I’m worried that even the revived deities would ignore the backlash and co out seeking to annihilate you..."
"Low profile, I got it!" said Luo Yu with a laugh.
"You?"
"Low profile?"
Luo Tiance sighed inwardly; this kid never seed to do anything low-key. As naturally as the breeze, he flaunted his presence.
His eyes sparkled as he said, "The foreign forces have yet to target you."
"Isn’t that a good thing?" Luo Yu smiled and said, "Their people co in vain, nothing can stop your sword."
Luo Tiance shook his head.
"The fact that they haven’t sent anyone can only an one thing, there’s a traitor among the high ranks of Great Xia."
Luo Yu responded quickly, "Do you an, those who consulted with you think I’m a fake, posing as God’s Child with the help of a treasure, and the news has reached abroad, and now those high-ups abroad also think I’m a fake God’s Child?"
"Right," Luo Tiance said, squinting his eyes, "I’m wondering, who among the eight people present at the eting has deviated from their faith, or if there’s a traitor among those they told."
"But Grandfather will handle these things later, you, kiddo, are safe for now." Luo Tiance said with a smile, yet the cold light in his eyes did not fade away.
Luo Yu spread his hands, "It doesn’t matter."
"I’m invincible, let them do as they please."
"You’re even more arrogant than I was back in the day," Luo Tiance remarked.
"With a trump card, there’s no need to panic, haha." Luo Yu had no guard up against his own grandfather, ntioning this also to reassure the other party.
"Don’t waste too many resources on ; just stay focused on working hard for Great Xia. If so high-level expert who doesn’t know any better cos looking for , I’ll give them a huge surprise." Luo Yu’s mouth turned up, as if anticipating so amusing event.
Luo Tiance shook his head and said seriously,
"I have to take care of both family and state matters."
"If I can’t look after my own grandson, how can I look after the world?"
"Ever since your father’s accident, I’ve realized that family is just as important. Don’t wait until it’s lost to start regretting."
Luo Tiance let out a sigh, but he quickly laughed again, "Thanks to you, kiddo, your old man can stand up again."
Luo Yu didn’t speak. He could feel that Luo Tiance had always felt guilty about Luo Fan’s broken legs.
"Those Western dogs, the foreign forces are probably waiting to laugh at my grandson being exposed. Let them wait," Luo Tiance scoffed. "In the end, we’ll see who the real joke is."
"Let’s go ho."
"Aren’t we training anymore? It hasn’t even been half a day," Luo Yu said.
Luo Tiance glanced at the corpses of the ferocious beasts lying on the ground, his mouth twitching slightly.
What training!
This kid had a discerning eye like no other, and his combat skills were unbelievably advanced, as if he had inherited them from his past life. It was downright eerie.
It must be said, cultivating a grandson with God’s Child level talents beyond a genius really diminishes the sense of achievent. Because before you even get a chance to teach him, just ntion it, and he’s already got it.
Once upon a ti, Luo Tiance was also known as a freakishly talented genius.
Now, even he thought Luo Yu was abnormal.
...
After returning to the Luo Family Mansion, Luo Fan was still nowhere to be seen, and the old servants of the manor had already prepared a sumptuous dinner.
Grilled Spurting Blood Bear Paw, mutated Overlord Squid Tentacles, and other ferocious beast delicacies, absolute nourishnt for martial artists requiring blood energy replenishnt.
Of course, so refined traditional delicacies were also indispensable.
As both were martial artists, the grandfather and grandson quickly finished off the exquisite food.
"You’re going to head to Sichuan Province Martial University for the start of school, leaving Da Jing for the first ti. Be careful," Luo Tiance said.
"Don’t worry, Grandfather," Luo Yu reassured him.
"I’ll have Chen Long and Si She follow you to help out with miscellaneous matters."
For the ti that followed, Luo Yu didn’t leave the manor but rather entered the Azure Stone Lotus space to cultivate in his dreams.
In the Stone Lotus space, his cultivation speed was very fast.
The hundred golden suns hanging in the sky were also constantly imbuing strands of their power into his body.
Even though he had strong talents, and his status and weaponry crushed ordinary people, and it seed he had decent luck with the ladies, Luo Yu did not slacken in his cultivation efforts. Instead, he worked even harder.
Talent just ans potential greater than others, but only those who put in the effort to realize their potential are truly geniuses.
With strength, one can move freely in a world invaded by ferocious beasts and awakening gods, protecting the ones they wish to protect, guarding the country they want to guard.
Ordinary people work hard to earn their own dignity.
Luo Yu, however, already considered the foreign gods as his potential enemies, striving to ensure that Great Xia could stand with dignity in the coming chaotic tis.
In fact, he had always been clear about one thing: taking on the identity of Green Ox Elder, who had imparted to him a heaven-defying technique and opportunity, was not just about crushing ordinary talent. Fighting against those gods eager for resurrection, he had to work doubly hard.
