Chapter 341: Willingness

City lord’s office.

Suddenly, a super teleportation array lit up.

The guards near the teleportation array quickly stood respectfully and took on a vigilant expression upon seeing this.

At that moment, Mu Xingran, who was still in the city talking to others, rushed over immediately.

After a moment, the teleportation ended.

A young man appeared in the teleportation array.

“Young one Mu Xingran pays respects to the senior.” Mu Xingran greeted the newcomer respectfully.

“There’s no need for formalities.” The newcomer waved his hand and then asked, “Is the one who passed the 82nd level of the Heart-Seeking Tower still here?”

“Senior, the one who passed the 82nd level is named Li Bai. He is still in the Heart-Seeking Tower.”

“Did you encounter any issues on your way here?” the newcomer continued to ask.

“Senior, while you were on your way here, the city had demon tribe spies appear. Fortunately, we discovered them early and have already eliminated the exposed demons.”

“Very good.”

Hearing this, the person nodded, then instantly disappeared.

In the next moment, he appeared at the top of the Heart-Seeking Tower.

Nearby the Heart-Seeking Tower, a crowd had gathered again.

When they saw the suddenly appearing figure, everyone was initially stunned, then excited.

“Paying respects to the Da Luo Celestial Sovereign!”

“We pay respects to Lingxu Shangren…”

Countless people bowed respectfully to the newcomer.

Many recognized the person before them; he was the only Da Luo Golden Immortal of the Human Race, Lingxu Shangren.

“There’s no need for formalities.” Lingxu Shangren gestured to everyone.

In the next moment, he directly cast a spell towards the Heart-Seeking Tower.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

A series of bell sounds rang out, and invisible waves spread rapidly from the Heart-Seeking Tower in all directions.

Soon, these waves reached everyone throughout the Holy City of Nuwa.

Even those hiding in formations could not avoid being affected by the sound of the bell.

In a mansion within the Holy City, several people were discussing something.

“The message has been sent back, right?”

“It has been sent back. Our powerful members will definitely take action.”

“That Li Bai from the Human Race has the potential of a Da Luo; the tribe will never allow him to grow.”

“And his father, who caused the death of so many members of our tribe. We worked hard to arrange for these people to infiltrate here. We must take revenge for this…”

As the few people were talking,

Dong, Dong, Dong…

The sound of the bell echoed.

“Puff!”

“Puff!”

“Puff!”

“Not good, we’ve been discovered! The Da Luo of the Human Race is coming…”

“Charge out and self-detonate; we can swap one for another…”

In the next moment, they all rushed out of the formations.

However, just as they burst out of the formations, a large hand suddenly appeared.

Then, the few of them were crushed to pieces like ants and unleashed a surge of demon energy.

Many people in the city witnessed this scene.

“As expected of the Da Luo Golden Immortal; it’s amazing.”

“Those people must have been spies from the demon tribe in the city. I didn’t expect them to be found like this!”

“It’s a pity that the Heart-Seeking Tower’s avatar can only be used once every thousand years. If it could be used more often, the demon tribe would never be able to infiltrate our Human Race…”

Only a few could understand the situation just now, such as powerhouses above the Golden Immortal Realm.

Those below the Golden Immortal Realm had little understanding of the specifics.

For example, while the Heart-Seeking Tower could locate demon tribe spies, it required the activation of a Da Luo Golden Immortal and could only be activated once every thousand years.

After Lingxu Shangren eliminated all the demon tribe spies in the city, he tossed several items to Mu Xingran.

“We only recently learned that the demon tribe infiltrated our Myriad Tribes. This is an immortal tool I created to identify demon energy. From now on, if demons enter the city, these immortal tools can be used for identification.”

“Yes.”

“Thank you, senior.”

Mu Xingran quickly expressed his gratitude after receiving the items.

Seeing Mu Xingran’s treatment, others displayed envious expressions.

Once the issue of the spies was handled, Lingxu Shangren turned his attention to Li Bai in the Heart-Seeking Tower.

At that moment, only Li Bai remained in the Heart-Seeking Tower,

as the others who had entered were brought out by Mu Xingran.

Although one couldn’t fight inside the Heart-Seeking Tower, or they would face its attack, it was better safe than sorry.

So now, there was only Li Bai in the Heart-Seeking Tower.

“You are Li Bai?”

With a wave of his hand, Lingxu Shangren pulled Li Bai out from the Heart-Seeking Tower and brought him before him.

“Junior Li Bai pays respects to the senior.”

From everyone’s address to this person, Li Bai also realized who stood before him.

The only Da Luo Golden Immortal of the Human Race, Lingxu Shangren, was a powerful being who had lived from ancient times to the present.

If it weren’t for him, the Human Race would definitely not hold its current position in the Kunlun Realm.

“No need for formalities.”

Lingxu Shangren waived his hand and directly used his divine sense to check on Li Bai’s situation.

Lingxu Shangren’s realm was so high that even using his divine sense to probe Li Bai’s condition, Li Bai didn’t feel a thing.

However, although Li Bai did not sense it, Li Xiaojun’s divine sense did.

Seeing Lingxu Shangren use his divine sense to examine Li Bai, Li Xiaojun immediately felt tense.

“System, will this Lingxu Shangren detect the upper chaotic divine demon roots of Li Bai?” Li Xiaojun hurriedly asked the system.

【System Notification: Host, please rest assured. The system has already hidden all of your offspring’s divine demon roots, and the Da Luo Golden Immortal cannot detect them.】

Hearing the system’s words, Li Xiaojun felt relieved.

If this Da Luo Golden Immortal discovered Li Bai’s upper chaotic divine demon roots, who knows what would happen?

What if he saw Li Bai’s chaotic divine demon roots and considered taking over?

Those were upper chaotic divine demon roots that could break through to the Primordial Supreme Golden Immortal without any bottlenecks.

Let alone a chaotic Da Luo Golden Immortal; even breaking through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm would be worth any price for a Da Luo Golden Immortal.

Li Xiaojun never doubted the ugliness of human nature. A good person, if the benefit is great enough, can still do evil.

If they don’t do evil, it’s just that the benefits aren’t significant enough.

Just like those who betrayed the Human Race in the Cultivation Alliance, eagerly becoming dogs for other races.

Were they born traitors? No, they were simply tempted because their lives were threatened or the benefits were too enticing.

“You are called Li Bai, right? Do you wish to take me as your teacher?”

After thoroughly examining Li Bai and confirming he was indeed a member of the Human Race with no issues, Lingxu Shangren finally got to the main topic.

Upon hearing Lingxu Shangren’s words, Li Bai did not agree immediately but turned his gaze toward Li Xiaojun.

Seeing Li Bai look at Li Xiaojun, Lingxu Shangren also looked over.

At this moment, Mu Xingran quickly introduced, “Senior, this is Li Bai’s father, friend Li Xiaojun.”

“You are Li Bai’s father?”

“Yes, senior.”

Li Xiaojun nodded and cupped his hands toward Lingxu Shangren.

“Mid-Golden Immortal, not bad.” Lingxu Shangren nodded at Li Xiaojun and then asked, “Are you willing to let your son take me as his teacher?”
