106: Zhang Laonong's Reminder
In front, Lu Xiaoyu was also secretly sizing up Lin Ruiyang. This was the first time she had seen his true appearance, and she couldn't help but be slightly entranced.
"The Holy Son, he's really handsome..."
Lu Xiaoyu's eyes darted away, her pretty face flushed red, and she instinctively lowered her head.
"Lu Xiaoyu is willing to join Holy Son Peak, and will never regret it!"
Lu Xiaoyu bowed again to the ground, her words sincere, her gaze firm.
All along, she had been hiding. The Sects she went to all rejected her because of her past.
Only Lin Ruiyang, whom she met in the Immortal Ancient Battlefield, was the first to actively invite her to join a Holy Land.
This made her feel that she hadn't been abandoned by the whole world, that there was still a trace of warmth in the human world, which was why she decided to come to Taichu Holy Land.
"Alright, from today onwards, you are a person of my Holy Son Peak!"
"Liu Qing, take her to the Test Hall to register!"
Lin Ruiyang's eyes were deep, his face showed no ripples, and he said with endless indifference.
According to the Holy Land's regulations, except for servant Disciples, others who want to join the Holy Land need to be tested in the Test Hall.
With talent and cultivation like Lu Xiaoyu's, she would likely become a Core Disciple.
At that time, she could only enter Holy Son Peak as a follower.
"Yue'er, go tell Qingcheng that we will set off for Jingjue Ancient City tomorrow!"
Lin Ruiyang pondered for a moment, and finally spoke.
"Ah? So soon? Aren't we leaving in ten days?"
"We'll go early... It's said that Tianji Pavilion is going to perform Unraveling Destiny in Jingjue Ancient City, let's go watch the excitement!"
...
An hour later.
Behind Taichu Holy Land.
"Senior, you said Tianji Pavilion is performing Unraveling Destiny in Jingjue Ancient City, should I go?"
On the large rock in front of the small wooden house, Lin Ruiyang held a wine pot in his hand, took two gulps with a "gurgle gurgle" sound, wiped his mouth casually, and asked cautiously.
The Old Farmer bent his waist, holding a few straws, and slowly walked out of the farmland.
"Haven't you already decided! Go if you want, no one dares to pry into your destiny anyway!"
The Old Farmer slowly climbed onto the large rock, sat beside Lin Ruiyang, took the wine pot casually, and smiled slightly.
"Uh... I just wanted to see the world! If Senior thinks there's anything wrong, then I won't go!"
Lin Ruiyang scratched his head, saying with an awkward expression.
Lin Ruiyang came mainly to gauge the Old Farmer's attitude. If he objected, then there must be an irresistible danger present.
In that case, he would give up this opportunity without hesitation.
Logically speaking, after the Sect competition, he defeated Ye Chen, which could be considered completing a Heaven-Defying change of fate.
At this moment, he should be able to gain the Heavenly Dao's approval, just like Jiang Yueyao.
But he had asked Little Fire, and his fortune was only at the yellow level, belonging to the lower-middle tier, just like ordinary Disciples.
"Since you're here, there's something I need to tell you!"
"This Junior is all ears!"
Lin Ruiyang quickly stood up, bowed, his attitude extremely humble.
It was rare for the Old Farmer to be so serious, which must concern his life, so Lin Ruiyang dared not be negligent.
"This matter is about the Ghost King, you need to be careful!"
The Old Farmer's expression was somewhat solemn. He glanced at Lin Ruiyang and said seriously.
"Ghost King, isn't he in slumber? Moreover, Xuanhuang World and the Azure Nether World are far apart, he might not even know there's someone like me in this world, how could he threaten me?"
Lin Ruiyang's expression was stern. He naturally knew about the Ghost King from the original work.
After the Immortal Ancient War, the strongest group of people in all the heavens all fell into slumber due to severe injuries. Luo Qingyu and the Ghost King were both like this.
But Luo Qingyu's situation was even worse than theirs; even her Physical Body was destroyed, leaving only a wisp of remnant soul.
"Originally, with your current cultivation and strength, you wouldn't attract his attention! The key is, these eyes of yours..."
"The Ancient Ghost Eye is a divine object that the Ghost Clan dreams of! And your identity..."
The Old Farmer sighed softly and said slowly.
"My identity? Could it be that Double Emperor Mountain has a feud with the Ghost Clan?"
Lin Ruiyang's eyes narrowed slightly, his heart full of doubt.
"Double Emperor Mountain has formidable strength, but it doesn't have any dealings with the Ghost Clan. What I mean is, your other identities..." The Old Farmer said leisurely.
Lin Ruiyang was startled. Other identities, could it be that he offended the Ghost King on Blue Star? That's not right, where would there be a Ghost Clan on Blue Star?
Could it be that there are other split souls that exist and have a significant grudge with the Ghost Clan?
If that were the case, then he would be too wronged. None of it was done by him, but he would have to take the blame.
"You mean, I have other split souls..."
Lin Ruiyang's heart skipped a beat, and he asked tentatively.
"Child, cultivate your strength well, and remember that the no trace ring must not leave your body!"
The Old Farmer nodded slightly and said indifferently.
Hearing this, Lin Ruiyang couldn't help but curl his lip. The Ghost King was probably also a Divine Lord level existence.
Even with the no trace ring, it might not be able to hide from the Ghost King. It seems he can only be as careful as possible.
"Actually, I only know that 'Lin Ruiyang' of Double Emperor Mountain is my split soul; I have no impression of the others!"
"Senior must know quite a bit, could you please enlighten me..."
Lin Ruiyang's expression was somewhat grim. If he had many split souls offending people everywhere, wouldn't he be finished?
He wasn't afraid of having many enemies, but afraid of not knowing who the enemies were, making it impossible to guard against them.
Seeing Lin Ruiyang's expression change drastically, the Old Farmer shook his head and said, "You don't need to worry too much. At least the current Ghost King doesn't know that the Ancient Ghost Eye has appeared!"
Saying that, he casually plucked a bamboo leaf and handed it to Lin Ruiyang: "Keep this leaf on you. If you encounter someone you cannot defeat, just crush it!"
"If you encounter the White Dragon Clan, remember not to make enemies!"
Hearing the Old Farmer's words, Lin Ruiyang's heart relaxed slightly, and he casually took the bamboo leaf.
The moment he took it, Lin Ruiyang could clearly feel the extremely terrifying power contained within. That power completely exceeded his understanding.
Lin Ruiyang even felt that this power was enough to destroy the entire Taichu Holy Land.
As for the matter of the White Dragon, Lin Ruiyang also deeply remembered it. It was rumored to be an auspicious dragon, and befriending it could increase one's own fortune.
"But even if the Ghost King wakes up, his strength is far less than before. His main body wouldn't cross realms to find me unless absolutely necessary, right!"
"At most, he'd issue a decree and send those little ghosts over to probe..."
Just then, Lin Ruiyang suddenly thought of a key point and said with some confusion.
"If the Ghost King appears in Xuanhuang World, someone will naturally stop him. You need to pay attention to a person named Ouyang Tianzhao!"
The Old Farmer pondered for a moment, and then spoke again.
"Listening to this name, how does it sound like a human?"
"Yes, he is human, but he carries the Ghost King's will and can use a trace of the Ghost King's power! His combat strength is not comparable to Sons of Fortune like Ye Chen. You need to be careful!"
"Also, if you use pupil techniques in front of him, the Ghost King's main body will immediately know about the existence of the Ancient Ghost Eye!"
