Yes, it was Liu Qingfeng.

On the Great Abyss Sea.

Two elderly figures slowly appeared, a man and a woman.

Their hair was snow-white, and they were old beyond description, their vital energy withered to the extreme, as if they might die at any moment.

Liu Qingfeng stood behind them, looking at the surrounding crowd, a hint of panic inexplicably showing in his eyes.

"Qingfeng?"

An elder of the Great Luo Holy Land recognized Liu Qingfeng in an instant.

"Elder Chen?"

Liu Qingfeng was also taken aback and immediately called out.

"What are you doing here? Who are these two seniors?"

Elder Chen asked, his expression filled with curiosity.

"These two? It's hard for me to explain. Where's Eldest Brother?"

Liu Qingfeng asked curiously, not seeing Lu Changsheng there.

"Your Eldest Brother is still at the Linglong Holy Land, right? By the way, what are you doing here? Aren't you with your Eldest Brother? Good, you're slacking off again, aren't you? Fine, I'll tell your father when I get back. You little rascal, you don't learn anything good and run around all day long."

Elder Chen suddenly realized and said this.

"Elder Chen, you've misunderstood me, I..." Liu Qingfeng wanted to explain.

However, Elder Chen shook his head and said, "I'm not listening, I'm not listening! You're just lazy and gluttonous. Qingfeng, Qingfeng, how did you suddenly become like this? I couldn't tell when you were little."

Hearing these words, Liu Qingfeng was stunned, unsure of how to explain.

Just then, the two elderly figures slowly spoke.

"Young friend Qingfeng, thank you for bringing us here. The sword manual is in the cave. Remember, study that sword manual diligently. Don't worry about quick results. Once you truly understand it, leave the cave. Otherwise, if you can't do it in one go, all your previous efforts will be wasted."

The old man spoke slowly.

"Junior understands. Thank you, seniors, for your guidance these past few days. Junior wishes both of you to return to your peak and cross the Immortal Gate."

Liu Qingfeng bowed.

"Mm."

The old man nodded, then supported the person beside him, and together they stepped into the Tianyuan Immortal Gate.

These two exuded an extremely terrifying aura.

From the moment they appeared, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, because the aura was too powerful. Although their vital energy was withered and they looked sickly, everyone had a feeling, a feeling that if the two of them made a move, everyone present working together wouldn't be able to defeat them.

"Elder Chen, I have to leave first. If you see Senior Brother Changsheng, please tell him that I am now working hard, chasing after his footsteps, and let him believe that one day, I, Liu Qingfeng, will also be recognized by the world."

Liu Qingfeng said, looking at Elder Chen.

However, Elder Chen shook his head and said, "Qingfeng, be down-to-earth and don't daydream. Chasing after your senior brother's footsteps? I'm not trying to discourage you, but do you think you're worthy? Cultivate properly, or learn to cook from your uncle. There are three hundred and sixty professions, and every profession produces an expert, right?"

Liu Qingfeng: "..."

"What? You're not happy after I say a few words to you? Your mentality is no good. Qingfeng, Qingfeng, why are you leaving? I can't even say a few words? I'm still your elder, after all."

"Qingfeng! Qingfeng! Don't go, I haven't finished speaking yet."

"Sigh, young people nowadays just don't listen to the advice of old people."

Elder Chen was a little depressed. He was just giving a few words of instruction, and he wasn't even happy. Sigh, young people are just like this, they don't listen to advice.

Liu Qingfeng left, leaving with a belly full of resentment.

At the same time.

Linglong Holy Land.

Linglong Great Hall.

Lu Changsheng sat cross-legged in the center of the hall, with the Holy Lord of Linglong in front of him.

"The Holy Lord means that because of the Tianyuan Holy Land, the Holy Maiden cannot go with me to participate in the Heavenly Pride Assembly?"

Lu Changsheng asked with some curiosity.

This didn't make sense. You said it was okay for me to bring someone, but now you're telling me this? I've prepared everything, and now you're telling me not to let her go?

"The Tianyuan Holy Land is of great importance. Yunrou is of great use to me and cannot follow you for the time being. But this is also good, allowing you to exercise your courage more. Otherwise, even if Yunrou goes with you, judging by your appearance, you wouldn't dare to do anything."

The Holy Lord of Linglong picked up her wine cup, took a sip, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.

What does this mean?

Holy Lord of Linglong, although you are the Holy Lord, you can't look down on people, right? It's fine if you look down on others, but you're actually looking down on me?

Also, what do you mean by "of great use"? How will she be used?

Lu Changsheng sat calmly in front of the Holy Lord of Linglong, and if the Holy Lord of Linglong knew what Lu Changsheng was thinking, probably...

"Since that's the case, it's also good. I can complete the Holy Land tour earlier."

Lu Changsheng said, nodding.

However, the Holy Lord of Linglong shook her head.

"No need. This time, the appearance of the Tianyuan Holy Land is of great importance. The Ten Great Holy Lands of Zhongzhou are all on high alert. You don't need to go to the remaining five Holy Lands. Now you are famous throughout the world. Going or not is just a formality."

She said this.

Lu Changsheng was a little confused.

He didn't need to go anymore?

The Holy Land journey was over?

Impossible, right?

Wasn't this story finished after only this much?

Aren't we going to pad it out a bit more?

Lu Changsheng was a little confused.

Ending the Holy Land journey early was not necessarily a bad thing for him, but the sudden end surprised Lu Changsheng a bit.

Wasn't there enough padding, so it ended directly?

"Your master has already negotiated with the Holy Lords of the remaining five Holy Lands. When you become the Holy Lord in the future, you can just go there yourself. This will also be more respectful. Moreover, your deeds have completely numbed Zhongzhou."

"The remaining five Holy Lands don't have anything worth showing off, so it's best to avoid embarrassment. After you return this time, you should be conferred the title of Great Luo Holy Son. At that time, our Holy Lands will send people to come and establish a written certificate, recognizing you as the Eldest Brother of the Daoist sect in the world."

The Holy Lord of Linglong said, explaining everything clearly in a few words.

Hearing this.

Lu Changsheng also understood.

It had been more than three months since he came down the mountain.

Each Holy Land had caused a huge storm.

Again and again.

Now there were five Holy Lands left.

Lu Changsheng found it troublesome, and the remaining five Holy Lands were also very distressed.

Because they didn't have any Yin-Yang Divine Stones, nor did they have any Sword Mountains. What would they do if Lu Changsheng came and they didn't have anything for him to pretend to be powerful with?

Lu Changsheng didn't care, but it would be a loss of face for the Holy Land.

If someone said later, "Lu Changsheng obtained the Ten Great Immortal Swords in the Shumen Holy Land. He came to your Holy Land and didn't get anything? How poor is your Holy Land?"

So, they were also panicking.

In addition, with the appearance of the Tianyuan Holy Land.

The eyes of the whole world were focused on the Tianyuan Holy Land.

Everyone was afraid that something big would happen.

So it was better to just let it go.

When Lu Changsheng became the Holy Lord in the future, it wouldn't be difficult to come and visit.

So, after the Ten Great Holy Lords negotiated, they agreed to this decision.

It was just a little unexpected.

"Then Junior will go back now."

Lu Changsheng got up directly. He didn't need to check in anymore, so he hurried back to the sect to relax.

"No! You must participate in the Heavenly Pride Assembly."

The Holy Lord of Linglong said.

"Can I not go?"

Lu Changsheng asked.

"No!" The Holy Lord of Linglong's attitude was very firm.

"Why?"

Lu Changsheng didn't understand.

He couldn't even refuse to attend a gathering?

"Zhongzhou needs you very much for this Heavenly Pride Assembly!"

The Holy Lord of Linglong said this.

"Needs me?"

Lu Changsheng was really a little confused this time.

What did they need him to do?

"That's right, they need you." The Holy Lord of Linglong nodded.

Then she explained.

"This Heavenly Pride Assembly is different from the past. Because of the Tianyuan Holy Land, all the experts in the cultivation world will gather. Heavenly Prides from the Eastern Lands, Southern Ridge, Western Desert, and Northern Poles will also follow, and even Heavenly Prides from some hidden sects will go."

"In these regions, many extraordinary geniuses have indeed emerged recently, but they are no match for you. Zhongzhou needs you to go and uphold its honor. Otherwise, people from other regions will mistakenly think that Zhongzhou has no geniuses! It will be a laughingstock."

The Holy Lord of Linglong explained this.

Lu Changsheng immediately understood.

Oh!

So they wanted me to go and support the scene?

They should have said so earlier.

This favor!

I, Lu Changsheng, will not refuse.

But soon, the Holy Lord of Linglong's expression became extremely serious.

"Changsheng, this Heavenly Pride Assembly, because of the Tianyuan Holy Land, all the experts in the world will gather in Brightmoon Ancient City. You must win face for our Zhongzhou. We cultivators, having reached this realm, have nothing to fight for with each other anymore."

"Now we are fighting for the glory of the younger generation. We have negotiated, you must let go of all restraints, don't be secretive. You must shock them from the start, make them despair directly. Don't be so low-key anymore, understand?"

The Holy Lord of Linglong said with utmost seriousness.

She told him not to be low-key!

However, these words made Lu Changsheng feel embarrassed.

He really didn't want to be high-profile.
