Chapter 347: Chapter (2)

There was a 9,000-year-old Peach of Immortality in Lu Ping’s hand.

He knew this thing.

But he had never eaten it before.

When he was in the Heavenly Court, he had only seen the Queen Mother taste this kind of thing. He had only managed to get a 6,000-year-old Peach of Immortality at most.

He had only managed to get one in the Heavenly Court after tens of thousands of years.

That time, the Phoenix clan helped him condense ten suns in one go!

As the clan leader, he got such a Peach of Immortality.

However, no one knew whether it was bitter or sweet, sour or bitter.

However, in Lu Ping’s hand was a real Peach of Immortality that was ripe once every nine thousand years.

“This is your son-in-law’s gift to you. Please have it!” Lu Ping said with a smile.

Although he was dissatisfied with his father-in-law before, he didn’t want to give up.

But when he knew what he had to endure, Lu Ping could understand a little. In the end, they were now a family.

“I don’t want it. Give it to Xiaoqi!” Huang Beisi said coldly.

“I’ve given it to her!”

“Then give it to Shiliu!”

“I’ve given it to her too.”

“Even if you’ve given it to her, she won’t eat enough!”

He really knew his daughter like a father.

Lu Ping was about to open his mouth when Huang Beisi said sternly, “If I tell you to keep it, then keep it!”

He said seriously, “Do you know why Xiaoqi and Shiliu were left behind on Fengming Planet by me?”

Lu Ping shook his head.

Huang Beisi raised his head and looked at the sky, sighing faintly, he said, “I’ve already thought about it. If there really is a day when the Heavenly Court asks me to return, and if I have no way to retreat, then I will not hesitate to fight! Even if I die, I don’t want to go back to that kind of life. Seeing my wife, children, and clansmen suffer such inhuman suffering, I have no choice but to endure it! If I want to die, then I’ll die!”

“Xiaoqi and Shiliu are innocent. I don’t want to implicate the two of them. In fact, all over the universe, some clansmen have already been released. It’s good that they can escape this calamity.”

As Huang Beisi spoke, he looked at Lu Ping. In a deep voice, he said, “Kid, your cultivation has already entered the Immortal stage. Now that you’ve become a planet official of the Heavenly Court and have connections with the saints, I hope that you can help me protect Xiaoqi and try not to expose Xiaoqi’s identity. If the Heavenly Court really wants to force the Phoenix clan to return, I also hope that you can think of a way to help delay it.”

Huang Beisi’s words were sincere and he didn’t hide anything. To him, there was nothing to hide.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Lu Ping was hiding something, he wouldn’t have agreed to let Lu Ping and Huang Xiaoqi be together so easily.

Lu Ping smiled bitterly in his heart. A saint?

Where would he find a saint?

But he definitely couldn’t say it now.

He said seriously, “I definitely won’t let anything happen to Xiaoqi and Shiliu…”

No matter what, Lu Ping knew that Huang Beisi was right.

Because of Huang Xiaoqi’s identity, it was not a secret on Fengming Planet. Many people knew about it. If Yun Xiao really knew about it, would it have a bad effect on Huang Xiaoqi?

However, the Heavenly Court did not give any orders regarding the Phoenix clan, so Lu Ping knew that there should be no problems in the short term.

If there really was a problem, the worst-case scenario would be to run away with the sect.

They would find a place that no one knew about and stay there for now.

Anyway, the universe was so big, who could find it?

As for the development of the sect, that would have to wait until later.

Seeing that Lu Ping had agreed, Huang Beisi said, “Alright, I have to take these children and leave. See you again.”

Lu Ping thought for a moment and said, “The immortal world in the southeast star domain that Yun Xiao established is near Fengming Planet. I suggest you take an ordinary person’s spaceship and leave. Don’t leave directly. Otherwise, if people see you, you might be in trouble.”

Lu Ping left, and Huang Beisi also left.

However, after receiving Lu Ping’s reminder, Huang Beisi decided to hide his cultivation and take people to leave in an ordinary spaceship.

As for the Peaches of Immortality, Huang Beisi ultimately did not want them.

Lu Ping had a lot of things to deal with when he returned this time.

He also needed to take care of his own personal disciples.

With Lu Ping’s current cultivation level, it was simply too easy for him to go back and guide them.

Among these disciples, Lu Zi’s cultivation level had already reached the Golden Core stage, while Cui Mengyao’s cultivation level had jumped to the highest among the disciples, the Heaven Immortal stage.

However, after recovering her physical body, Cui Mengyao’s directed cultivation mission had been reactivated.

In other words, she still had to walk the path of an alchemy master.

Although Cui Mengyao currently had a whole body of cultivation, when it came to combat strength, it was still a stretch.

There was no other way. Her cultivation level had been forcefully raised by Yun Xiao through the use of spiritual items and various methods during the reconstruction of her body.

Cui Mengyao only knew basic sword techniques in combat.

Of course, the easiest way now was to give Cui Mengyao an immortal artifact or spiritual treasure.

With her cultivation base, she could immediately unleash great combat strength.

Many ancient cultivators were the same.

For example, Yun Xiao’s combat strength would be greatly reduced if she didn’t have the Primordial Golden Dipper and the Golden Dragon Shears.

However, Kong Xuan and Sun Wukong didn’t have that crutch, because their battle techniques were extremely comprehensive.

Lu Ping didn’t want Cui Mengyao to become someone who only relied on magic treasures.

After all, once a magic treasure was restrained or had no effect, there was no way to escape.

However, Lu Ping didn’t have a suitable cultivation technique to teach her.

He could only teach her the path of alchemy and the art of alchemy.

After all, as long as Cui Mengyao refined pills, Lu Ping would be able to obtain higher quality replicas, which was very tempting to Lu Ping.

His third disciple, Kong Jing, was already at the Nascent Soul stage.

His cultivation was also piled up by a lot of resources.

Whether it was Kong Xuan or Huang Xiaoqi, they all gave him a lot of resources, especially the things that Kong Xuan gave him, which allowed his cultivation to rise rapidly.

However, this kid didn’t have the same problems as Cui Mengyao.

The cultivation technique he cultivated could condense Five-Colored Divine Light. It was only because of his cultivation, talent, and other reasons that his battle prowess might not be as terrifying as Kong Xuan’s.

But to be honest, the power wasn’t something magic treasures or spells could compare to.

It could be said that he was a combination of offense and defense and was extremely powerful.

Kong Lele’s cultivation was much lower. She was only at the Foundation Establishment stage.

Meng Fan was also at the Foundation Establishment stage, but his cultivation was higher than Kong Lele’s.

Then there was Chu Nanxi.

This old demon’s cultivation didn’t increase too quickly. She hadn’t reached the Nascent Soul stage yet, so she had no choice. After switching to grade SSS cultivation techniques, she needed more resources, and breaking through was even more difficult.

After having a sect, Lu Ping wasn’t very enthusiastic about taking in disciples.

It could only be said that it was up to fate.

Lu Ping checked the cultivation levels of the disciples one by one and gave them cultivation suggestions one by one.

The cultivation levels of these disciples were generally lower, and the cultivation value they obtained wasn’t much.

After giving the suggestions, the group of disciples dispersed.

Huang Xiaoqi came over and hugged Lu Ping, saying gently, “Thank you for your hard work.”

Sometimes, a warm word from one’s beloved was enough to sweep away all fatigue.

Of course, Lu Ping himself was not tired.

He suddenly thought of a problem.

“Who was that last time? The one who was locked up. How is he?”

Huang Xiaoqi straightened up and exclaimed, “Oh no! I forgot about him!”

Lu Ping was dumbfounded.

What was the name of that disciple? Gao Zhen! That’s right, that was the name!

Huang Xiaoqi said, “Yeah, didn’t you ask Huang Shiliu to dig a cave with him last time and then set up an array to trap him? After you left, I didn’t think of him at all.”

“So…” Lu Ping had a bad feeling in his heart.

“That’s why I didn’t ask Huang Shiliu to deliver his food for more than half a year.” Huang Xiaoqi’s eyes were filled with guilt.

Lu Ping said nothing.

That kid couldn’t have starved to death, right?

At this moment, within the Seven Phoenixes sect, Gao Zhen’s eyes were sunken, and his face was sallow and emaciated.

He had completely become skin and bones and was just like a disaster victim.

His clothes were still considered clean. In here, he could cultivate, and he could also cast some basic spells, so his personal hygiene could still be considered decent.

At this moment, he was squatting on the ground, looking up at the sky.

“There aren’t any birds yet… I’ve been hungry for five days. If there aren’t any birds… What should I do?”

This was the only way he could get food.

He had to wait for birds and beasts to pass by.

The formation set up by Huang Shiliu allowed entry but no exit. When one entered, everything was as usual. As long as one wanted to leave, they could forget about it.

So as long as there are birds and beasts passing by, they would become Gao Zhen’s food.
