Chapter 151: The Eldest Senior Brother of Luodi Mountain (Sixteen)

Upon hearing Long Qiu's words,
Su Chen's interest was piqued.
What could possibly make a quasi-emperor so cautious?
It had caused countless failures, including many young emperors, all to come up empty-handed.
Su Chen became engrossed in his thoughts.
A hundred years passed.
Long Qiu asked, "Have you figured anything out?"
Su Chen shook his head.
Long Qiu was somewhat disappointed.
A great secret was hidden within.
Even Little Chenzi couldn't comprehend it.
In this era, it seemed no one could comprehend it.
However, Su Chen wasn't discouraged.
He hadn't figured it out.
But he knew that the demonic runes likely held immense potential.
If his comprehension wasn't sufficient in this life, he would in the next. Sooner or later, he would comprehend the demonic runes.
Long Qiu was unaware of Su Chen's thoughts.
Long Qiu continued, "Nangong Chen, that old fellow has arranged something else."
"He said if you can't comprehend the demonic runes, you'll owe him something."
Su Chen knew that the "old fellow" Long Qiu was referring to was his master in this life.
Su Chen had a bad feeling.
Long Qiu didn't give Su Chen a chance to speak, continuing, "That old fellow said you don't have to marry that little girl from the Zixiao Dao Sect."
"However, you must have a child with her to inherit the legacy of the Great Emperor of the Desolate Ruins."
Su Chen: "......."
He thought the old man had already let go of his resentment.
It turns out he was still hung up on it until his death.
Long Qiu continued, "Nangong Chen, just marry that little girl from the Zixiao Dao Sect. She's a saint, and possesses the Azure Wood Divine Body. She'll live long enough to accompany you for a long time."
Su Chen remained unmoved.
Long Qiu continued, "Over the years, she frequently brought female disciples from the Zixiao Dao Sect to my Luodi Mountain to discuss Dao and guide the cultivation of disciples from both sects. My Luodi Mountain disciples all adore her."
Su Chen raised an eyebrow: "Didn't she say she had nothing to do with me anymore?"
Long Qiu waved his paw: "Women's words are just that—words. The entire Qingming Dao Domain knows that the most beautiful woman in the Zixiao Dao Sect likes you. Whether you admit it or not, the disciples of Luodi Mountain have all been won over by her. Hmm... the disciples from a thousand years ago have become elders."
Su Chen: "I am the Mountain Lord!"
Long Qiu smiled slyly: "Mountain Lord, then you should just give in to that little girl from the Lin family. You can only blame Luodi Mountain for its imbalance of yang and yin."
Su Chen smiled insincerely: "Little mudskipper, you're getting bolder and bolder. What benefits did the Zixiao Dao Sect give you?"
Long Qiu's face stiffened, and he chuckled awkwardly: "These are the old man's last words."
Su Chen grabbed Long Qiu's tail as he tried to escape.
Longqiu let out a bloodcurdling scream.
"Nangong Chen, the Zixiao Dao Sect promised to find me a pure-blooded female dragon! I've served Luodi Mountain for 30,000 years, you can't ruin my happiness!"
Su Chen retorted irritably, "You spineless coward!"
Longqiu stared at Su Chen, his eyes filled with horror. Although Su Chen hadn't fully comprehended the demonic runes, he had become even stronger. Perhaps Longqiu wasn't even Su Chen's match.
Longqiu clutched his tail, looking aggrieved, and said, "But this really was that old man's last words."
Su Chen believed that the old man was capable of such a thing.
Su Chen said, "I'll consider it."
After Longqiu left,
Su Chen's expression returned to calm.
He was naturally aware of the changes at Luodi Mountain.
This was also something he had intentionally orchestrated.
"Perhaps... leaving behind an heir wouldn't be bad."
He had poured too much of his heart and soul into Luodi Mountain.
He wanted to build Luodi Mountain into a super lineage.
To protect him for future generations.
But he alone wasn't enough.
The difficulty of becoming a Quasi-Emperor in this era was several times greater than in the Golden Age.
Even he wasn't confident he could become a Quasi-Emperor.
Three thousand years later.
Su Chen returned to the Zixiao Dao Sect.
"Lord Luodi Mountain, Elder Lin said she's not in the Zixiao Dao Sect."
Su Chen's expression was strange.
His aura was as deep and vast as the sea, obscuring the sun, moon, and stars.
"Tell me, is this truly what your Elder Lin said?"
The elder who came to answer trembled, drenched in cold sweat, and forced a smile, saying, "Mountain Lord, Elder Lin is truly not in the Purple Cloud Dao Sect. Please wait a little longer."
Su Chen nodded.
Three months later.
Su Chen asked, "Your Elder Lin hasn't returned to the sect yet?"
The elders of the Purple Cloud Dao Sect groaned in despair.
They nodded, forcing a smile.
Su Chen smiled.
Three years later.
Su Chen continued, "Has your Elder Lin returned to the sect?"
The elders of the Purple Cloud Dao Sect dared not answer, trembling with fear.
Su Chen sighed softly, "Never mind, never mind."
With that, Su Chen took a step forward, arriving above the Purple Cloud Dao Sect.
At the Purple Cloud Dao Sect, purple energy swirled, and billions of bolts of lightning converged towards Su Chen.
"Nangong Chen, what are you doing? Are you trying to force your way into my Zixiao Dao Sect?"
A deafening voice echoed from within the Zixiao Dao Sect.
Su Chen saw the newcomer and said calmly, "Lin Yu, remove the formation, or I'll dismantle this tortoise shell of your Zixiao Dao Sect!"
A figure in a magnificent robe and feathered crown flew out from within the Zixiao Dao Sect.
It was none other than the ancient freak who had been defeated by Su Chen in the past.
Now the sect leader of the Zixiao Dao Sect, his cultivation had recently broken through to the Saint King realm, but it hadn't yet been fully consolidated.
Upon seeing Su Chen, his expression froze slightly.
The difference between a Saint King and a Great Saint was simply too great.
His tone softened as he asked, "Nangong Chen, what brings you to my Zixiao Dao Sect?"
Su Chen ignored him and continued, "I'll count to three. Either you remove this tortoise shell yourself, or I'll remove it for you."
Without hesitation.
The array formation of the Zixiao Dao Sect gradually faded.
Su Chen arrived at the Zixiao Dao Sect unimpeded.
Lin Yu was helpless.
He knew Su Chen meant what he said.
"Junior Sister Lin,"
"This is all I can do for you."
After all,
he, the dignified head of a sect, being beaten up in front of everyone...
It would be incredibly humiliating.
The next day,
news spread that the Zixiao Dao Sect and Luodi Mountain were forming a marriage alliance.
It was the Lin family of the Zixiao Dao Sect and the Nangong family of Luodi Mountain.
Meanwhile,
the Xuanming Demon Realm, which had been quiet for a long time, began to stir.
