"Whatever the Heavenly God says, the deed is done. Whether you kill me or punish me, I will accept it as you wish!"
Lu Fan's expression was indifferent, his words devoid of any reservation, as if everything in his eyes was mere dust.
"Well said, 'Whether you kill me or punish me, I will accept it as you wish!'"
God Rufeng smiled. "You kid are indeed tough. To be able to kill someone at the second level of the God Realm with your barely-entered God Realm is no small feat!"
"You flatter me, Heavenly God!"
Lu Fan clasped his fists and smiled, his eyes clearly calm.
"You can still smile!"
Zhao Xiaoyu rolled her eyes, his heart sinking further. With things having come to this, Lu Fan's nonchalant attitude was making him extremely worried.
"Don't worry, this kid is so calm, he must not be afraid. Why are you so concerned!"
God Rufeng chuckled. "It's better to let nature take its course!"
"Heavenly God, you jest!"
Zhao Xiaoyu said repeatedly, "This matter is of great importance, and he offended Zhang Feng to save me. How can I stand by and do nothing!"
"Don't worry, the servant's quarters are under my jurisdiction. Even the Enforcement Heavenly God has to give me some face!"
God Rufeng laughed. "However, killing a disciple of Yuqing Mountain is no small matter. Even though Zhang Feng made the first move, given his status in the servant's quarters, he will likely still face severe punishment!"
"Then what should we do!" Zhao Xiaoyu frowned.
Even Lu Fan frowned. If that were the case, his plan would have gone awry.
"Your Excellency Heavenly God, he came to the servant's quarters to provoke me. Now that he is dead, how can I be blamed!" Lu Fan said directly.
"The Enforcement Heavenly God will not consider so much. You killed a Yuqing Mountain disciple, and you violated the rules!"
God Rufeng stated frankly, "He will not show mercy, and at that time, you will inevitably face severe punishment!"
"If that's the case, then I'll fight!"
Lu Fan's eyes sharpened. "I want to see if this God Realm is truly so unreasonable!"
"Young people are too hot-headed!"
God Rufeng waved his hand. "But speaking of which, I do have a way to help you escape this calamity. I wonder if you are willing!"
"If it can help me escape this calamity, I am naturally willing!"
Lu Fan's eyes were solemn and even more serious.
Having reached this point, he had nothing more to say. How could he be unwilling?
"Since that is the case, then kneel down now!"
God Rufeng said directly, "And kowtow three times!"
"Kowtow?"
Lu Fan was baffled. "Why is that?"
"If you become my personal disciple, you will also be a disciple of Yuqing Mountain."
God Rufeng smiled. "The Enforcement Heavenly God will not easily move you out of respect for my face!"
"That's wonderful!"
Zhao Xiaoyu was overjoyed. "Is God Rufeng intending to take him as a disciple? This is a great honor!"
Lu Fan was also a bit surprised. He naturally did not expect God Rufeng to do this, as taking on a disciple was no trivial matter.
"If I don't take him as a disciple, how can he escape this calamity!"
God Rufeng waved his hand. "But speaking of which, everything has its destiny. In the future, you kid, when you follow me within Yuqing Mountain, you must tread carefully!"
"Why is that?" Lu Fan was baffled.
"I don't want to get entangled in too many things!"
God Rufeng said directly. "In the entire Yuqing Mountain, being accepted as a disciple by a Heavenly God is an extraordinary achievement. You kid, within Yuqing Mountain, will inevitably face criticism!"
"So that's how it is!"
Lu Fan nodded, finding this point quite agreeable.
"Since I have accepted you as my disciple, you will cultivate on the peak of Yuqing Mountain from now on!"
God Rufeng said directly. "The peak of Yuqing Mountain possesses divine power. Only by transforming divine power into your own can you achieve continuous breakthroughs!"
"Divine power?"
Lu Fan was slightly surprised. "So in the God Realm, to break through, one cannot rely on spiritual energy but must rely on divine power? No wonder I haven't felt any signs of breakthrough after being in the God Realm for so long!"
"In the God Realm, divine power surges all the time!"
God Rufeng said directly. "You kid, being able to ascend from the lower realm, you must have some talent. Perhaps you will have some great fortune in the future!"
"Thank you for your high regard, Heavenly God!"
Lu Fan quickly clasped his fists, showing great respect to the old man before him. To break his own rules to help him and accept him as a disciple was a great kindness.
God Rufeng waved his hand and then began to meditate again. However, he gave Lu Fan a jade token.
"This is the jade token of a Yuqing Mountain disciple. Congratulations on becoming a disciple of Yuqing Mountain!"
Zhao Xiaoyu looked at Lu Fan and smiled. "From now on, I'll probably have to rely on you to look out for me!"
"Don't worry, I came from the servant's quarters. This little matter is nothing!"
Lu Fan smiled faintly, his gaze even more placid, as if everything was under his control.
Zhao Xiaoyu returned to the servant's quarters, his face much more relaxed. Having resolved Lu Fan's situation was like lifting a heavy burden from his heart.
"How did it go?"
Liu Da Pang walked over. "Old Ten, he..."
"He has already been accepted as a disciple of Yuqing Mountain. Even the Enforcement Heavenly God will not do anything to him!"
A smile appeared on his lips, Zhao Xiaoyu said directly, looking completely at ease.
"Became a Yuqing Mountain disciple?"
At this, everyone was startled and somewhat incredulous. They naturally never expected Lu Fan, through his own efforts, to become a disciple of Yuqing Mountain.
"With this, we in the servant's quarters have some prospects!" Fatty Lao San laughed. "I knew long ago this kid was not simple. I never expected that after only arriving in the God Realm, he would become a disciple of Yuqing Mountain. We will have someone to rely on in the future."
Everyone also nodded, their faces showing emotion. This was naturally a great good thing for them.
Not long after, a piece of news spread: Zhang Feng of Yuqing Mountain attempted to assassinate someone in the servant's quarters last night but was instead killed by someone from the servant's quarters.
Even more bizarrely, this person became a disciple of Yuqing Mountain overnight, and moreover, the personal disciple of God Rufeng.
There were a total of nine Heavenly Gods in Yuqing Mountain. Those accepted as personal disciples by Heavenly Gods were by no means ordinary individuals.
It so happened that Lu Fan was from the servant's quarters, which made it even more baffling to everyone.
"That must be Lu Fan! I heard he's the one who killed Zhang Feng. I really didn't expect someone who just ascended to the God Realm to be able to kill someone at the second level of the God Realm!"
"So it's not! It seems he's not simple, but Zhang Feng's older brother, Zhang Shihai, is not someone to be trifled with!"
Conversations continued, and everyone discussed with great curiosity about Lu Fan's arrival.
Lu Fan was absorbing divine power, feeling his internal strength growing stronger, and was inwardly shocked.
Not far away, many men approached with imposing strides, their auras chilling and unsettling.
