Chapter 1145: I Declare Lu Teng and Gongyang Qingrou Husband and Wife (Username 19133)

This was just like saying, even if the world's richest man had even more money, it wouldn't matter, because he was already the richest man anyway. If he had money, then he had money, and no one would envy or admire him for it.

But if a neighbor's family, who had always been about the same as everyone else, suddenly became wealthy, then throughout the entire village and beyond, how many people would lie awake at night unable to sleep? There might even be a few who'd hang themselves out of spite.

The various factions of Ji Continent watching this scene were bound to spread word of this once-in-a-lifetime spectacle they had witnessed today, along with the name Lu Ding, and the birth of the Son of Heaven, to every corner of the world!!!

Someone said,

"Some emperors of certain countries like to call themselves the Son of Heaven. I wonder, when these fake Sons of Heaven encounter Lu Ding, the real Son of Heaven, what will they think?"

"From today onward, 'Son of Heaven' should only be used to describe him alone."

"If anyone else dares to use 'Son of Heaven' as their title, that would be trying to claim kinship with Lu Ding. And with the temper he just showed when he attacked, heh heh......"

Voices rose one after another.

Back to the Lu Family.

At this moment, the various Lu Family Patriarchs and the Lu Family members were all sick with regret.

Why didn't you say so earlier!!

Why didn't you say so earlier!!!

If you had said so earlier, that you were this incredible, then what else would we have had to say? We would have directly sent a grand eight-person palanquin to bring your father here, forced him to kneel before you and admit his mistakes.

If your father wasn't enough.

We uncles, elders, and patriarchs would all kneel before you, would that be enough?

What were you even doing?

They didn't even dare to imagine, if Lu Ding could successfully return to the Lu Family, then the Lu Family's prestige would surely reach unprecedented heights. And if they could develop steadily, waiting for Lu Ding to grow up.

Not to mention becoming the overlord of Ji Continent, even the uncrowned king of the Second Circle, the Lu Family could achieve that!!!!

But now, the Lu Family could only helplessly and unwillingly hand Lu Ding over to Lü Mountain, that already overwhelmingly powerful hidden force that was so strong it left people dazed.

What a waste!!!!

Eh....... wait!!!

There's still the Great Han!!!!

With Lu Ding's feelings for the Great Han, wouldn't that mean.........

The Lu Family members finally realized the severity of the problem.

If Lu Ding were merely a member of Lü Mountain, they might not feel this much regret and grief. But Lu Ding was also a man of the Great Han!!!!

Wasn't the uncrowned king of the Second Circle, which should have been theirs, about to be handed over to the Great Han!!!!?

This is bad!!!!

Pain!!! It hurts too much!!!!

Especially for Lu Family Founding Ancestor Lu Lin. He had watched with his own eyes as the Lu Family's opportunity slipped away.

Originally, after learning some of Lu Ding's situation and witnessing how Lu Ding dealt with Lu Teng's sons and daughters, he had come to greatly admire Lu Ding, even going so far as to tell Lu Ding the Lu Family's greatest secret.

This man was also someone of true integrity!!!!

He truly wanted Lu Ding, carrying the Lu Family bloodline, to walk a path no one from the Lu Family had ever walked before!

Unfortunately, Lu Ding didn't think much of it!

He actually didn't think much of it!!!!

The child with the most potential, the most outstanding child, had slipped through the Lu Family's fingers like this, passing them by.

Lu Lin, who hadn't been too seriously injured, coughed out a mouthful of blood, spraying it into a fine mist from sheer fury.

Excessive anger harms the body.

At this moment, when he looked at Lu Teng, although there wasn't much killing intent in his eyes, the hatred was practically overflowing.

Lu Teng was also a junior he had doted on. While he wouldn't go so far as to kill him, there was absolutely no way he would ever let Lu Teng have an easy time after this!!!!

Absolutely!!!!

In the air, Lu Ding slowly came back to his senses, opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and let it out.

"Whoosh.........."

Lu Ding hated the feeling of being evenly matched. He preferred overwhelming dominance, but regarding the situation on the Demon Continent, he actually hadn't been too confident deep down.

But now, everything was fine.

Even if he went to the Demon Continent and encountered those cheat-like monsters the Great-Grandmaster had mentioned, he could still achieve total domination!!!!

Born of heaven and earth, sharing the same lifespan as the heavens, once proven, eternally proven!!!

He existed between heaven and earth, a flower blooming in three places - past, present, and future - and he alone would reign supreme!!!

What Lu Ding needed was merely time to grow, and the result of his growth was already predetermined.

Because he was the Son of Heaven!!!

"Hahahahahahahahaha........"

Lu Ding's laughter reverberated through the air, resounding across heaven and earth, while black smoke continued to billow and churn from his apertures.

But compared to before, the influence his arrogance now brought caused even heaven and earth to change color with awe.

That hideous, massive human face hung high upon the celestial dome, overlooking the world below. His might was like the might of heaven itself, radiating brilliantly down upon all, where thunder and rain were equally blessings!!!

Lu Ding, who was already strong in the current version, had now become the answer to the version itself.

"Right now, I lack absolutely nothing!!!!"

Lu Ding's gaze fell downward, looking at Lu Teng and Luo Qingshi, his former parents: "What do you say?"

Lu Teng looked at Lu Ding, wanting to speak but hesitating.

Whether it was his earlier actions or his current state,

they all conveyed one truth: never question his words.

Lu Teng no longer dared to assume the identity of Lu Ding's father.

He simply let go of his pride and said, "At your disposal........"

Lu Ding flicked the hem of his [Jingzhu Dan Imprint Robe] behind him.

"Good, refreshing!!!"

"Senior Gongyang!"

Lu Ding called out to Gongyang Qingrou.

He would never forget the things he had promised, regardless of whether Gongyang Qingrou had done it for herself or had some other motives.

Lu Ding only knew one thing: she had helped him.

So she deserved to be repaid, and her wish deserved to be fulfilled.

Gongyang Qingrou flew over in silence, her eyes shimmering as she looked at Lu Ding. Finally, she let out a sigh and reluctantly shifted her gaze to Lu Teng.

At this moment, Lu Teng was still somewhat confused.

He had thought that Lu Ding would deal with him.

But unexpectedly, Lu Ding had called Gongyang Qingrou over.

What did this mean?

Gongyang Qingrou shouldn't hold any hatred toward him, right?

Could it be that there was some kind of deal between them?

Forget it. Whatever deal there was, it was none of anyone else's business.

And he certainly didn't want Gongyang Qingrou, the one who had played a crucial role in causing all of today's events, to come save him or plead for mercy on his behalf!!

Lu Teng shouted, "Gongyang Qingrou, you don't need to say anything more. My current situation is the karma for my past actions. You go on, don't involve yourself in this matter. The grudge between us ends here today. Consider it as if Lu Teng never knew you. I brought this upon myself. I, Lu Teng, have lived my life owing no one anything, except......."

Saying this, he looked at Lu Ding in the sky and could no longer continue speaking.

Gongyang Qingrou pressed her lips together: "Are you blaming me? You're still blaming me for telling Lu Ding the truth? Have you ever once thought about my situation!!!"

Lu Teng didn't speak. He didn't lift his head. He didn't look at her.

As for whether he blamed her or not, if Lu Ding weren't so glorious right now, then Lu Teng might not have been feeling this terrible. He would have felt bad, but not this bad. But how glorious was Lu Ding right now? The heaven-and-earth-reforged Son of Heaven.......

And he would never return to the Lu Family. If it weren't for what had happened.......

If Gongyang Qingrou had told him in advance, he could have stopped Lu Xiu. Then Lu Ding.....then the Lu Family.........

Sigh.......

Lu Ding looked at the two of them: "Alright, Senior Gongyang, whatever matters you two have, you can sort them out slowly in the future. I'll have your back. When the time comes, I'll leave you my contact information so you can reach me anytime."

"Forced melons aren't sweet, but they do quench your thirst. And if worse comes to worst, you can dip them in sugar and make them sweet."

What did he mean?

Everyone was confused.

Then they watched as Lu Ding straightened his scholar-warrior sleeves: "I hereby announce that, from this day forward, Gongyang Qingrou shall be Lu Teng's lawful wife!!!

"Choose a date for the wedding!"

"A bridal procession stretching a hundred li!!!"

"A proper, formal marriage!!!"

The moment these words left Lu Ding's mouth, everyone was stunned. Wait, weren't they in the middle of a fight? How were you suddenly hosting a wedding? What kind of plot twist was this?

The transition was too fast. Something wasn't right.

Shui Ci, who had originally been Lu Teng's lawful wife and was also the mother of Lu Yansheng and Lu Yuexin, spoke up: "Wait a moment!"

Luo Qingshi, Lu Ding's former birth mother, also shouted: "Wait a moment!!"

Lu Teng struggled and yelled: "I don't agree!!"

But all of this was within Lu Ding's expectations.

Except.......

Gongyang Qingrou, with tears falling, spoke: "I also... don't agree!!!!!"

Lu Ding: ???????

Senior Gongyang, you're backstabbing me!!?

The previous chapter was an extra update for the gift king sent by the big shot who loves mint cakes. This chapter is an extra update for the big shot Username 19133..... Thank you to big shot Jun Shen Hongchen for sending two gift kings, and thank you to the kind big shot* for sending a gift king.

I didn't post an extra update yesterday because I suddenly remembered I had a follow-up medical appointment and ran out of time. I didn't finish writing the extra chapter, so I rushed off to Huaxi Hospital and spent the whole day running around there. Sorry everyone. Normally when I don't post extra updates, I always explain the situation, but yesterday I left in such a hurry that I didn't even mention it. My sincere apologies.

Everyone, please cast your votes.
