Ancient Ancestral Ruins - Chapter 71 A Flick of the Finger Kills a True God

Faced with the assertive Lu Jiu, everyone in the shop remained silent.

Taiyi Divine Ancestor sighed and said, “Ten thousand years ago, demons ravaged the land. Many of us, including myself, made contributions to the human race. You, Supreme One, do not deny this, do you?”

“Of course I don’t deny it.” Lu Jiu nodded.

“After you disappeared for many years, other visitors from beyond the realm appeared in the void. All the sects and factions of our human race felt the pressure and sought ways to become immortals. Can Your Majesty understand this?”

“Of course I understand.” Lu Jiu nodded again.

“Then surely the Supreme One should be able to understand our predicament. Is this explanation acceptable?” said the Taiyi Divine Ancestor.

The word “Supreme” carries extraordinary significance.

When Li Hanlu heard this, she thought to herself, “As expected.” She had long suspected Lu Shi’s identity.

Xu Huanhuan’s beautiful eyes sparkled as she thought of some ancient legends.

Throughout history, there has only been one person who has been qualified to be called the Supreme One, and that person had an extraordinary relationship with the Xu family’s grandmother. If it weren’t for the accident that she disappeared for ten thousand years, the Xu family might have formed a marriage alliance with the Lu family!

Of all those present, besides Lu Jiu, Bai Su was the most composed.

For Bai Su, no matter who Lu Jiu is, he is the one who saved her from despair and is the master she is willing to dedicate her life to serving!

As for the disciple of the Taiyi Divine Ancestor, the middle-aged shop owner couldn’t help but gasp.

He had also heard various rumors about that ancient supreme being, and even the Taiyi God Ancestor had mentioned him many times before, saying that he was the most amazing person in the human race from ancient times to the present, without exception!

After the words of the Divine Ancestor Taiyi fell.

All eyes turned to Lu Jiu.

Lu Jiu, however, suddenly burst into laughter.

He laughed as he pointed at the Taiyi Divine Ancestor opposite him.

“Xu Taiyi, you are still as hypocritical and obsessed with saving face as ever.”

This time, Lu Jiu didn’t call him “Old Bi Deng,” but addressed him by his given name.

In fact, this represents a sense of distance in terms of stance.

“I don’t deny your ancient achievements, and I understand the pressure you feel facing outsiders!”

“but!”

As he spoke, Lu Jiu exuded a sharp and incomparable killing intent, making everyone present feel a suffocating sense of oppression!

“None of this is an excuse for you to target the Lu family or slander and defame me!”

Lu Jiu’s face was gloomy as he said coldly, “If you need to slander and defame me in order to gather the faith of all people, I will at most punish you slightly, after all, I don’t care much about these empty titles.”

“But what about the Lu family? While I was away, the Lu family was suppressed and bullied. Whether it was you or anyone else, even if you didn’t personally take action against the Lu family, you were all guilty for watching the Lu family being suppressed and bullied!”

“I’ve always been too lazy to explain too much, because those who understand don’t need me to say anything, and I don’t need to waste my breath on those who don’t understand.”

“Xu Taiyi, I gave you a chance, but unfortunately you were useless!”

The murderous aura emanating from Lu Jiu speaks volumes.

“I am willing to compensate the Lu family!” Xu Taiyi said.

Ten thousand years have passed, and he has now entered the realm of human immortals.

However, Xu Taiyi knew very well that Cang Qingzi’s cultivation was far above his own, and Cang Qingzi’s respectful and fearful attitude towards Lu Jiu made Xu Taiyi dare not turn against Lu Jiu at all.

He is a prime example of someone who has become wise and shrewd with age.

Xu Taiyi also understood that Lu Jiu’s decision not to kill anyone right away meant that he did not intend to solve the problem with violence, and that there was still room for the situation to be de-escalated.

“compensate?”

Lu Jiu laughed, “Any compensation is fine?”

“Your Excellency can make any request!”

“You said it yourself.”

Lu Jiu’s tone was somewhat meaningful.

He could certainly kill that old bastard Xu Taiyi directly, but with the Lu family’s current capabilities, they simply couldn’t handle such a large resource pool as Zixia Divine Mountain.

What he wanted was not just to avenge the Lu family and wipe them out completely.

What he wanted was to make the Lu family rise rapidly within a hundred years, becoming an invincible family that could dominate the world even without relying on him!

Just as Xu Taiyi was trying to figure out what conditions and demands Lu Jiu would make.

Lu Jiu raised his hand and formed a magic seal.

Buzz!

As the surrounding space trembled, an incomparably powerful primordial spirit force spread out from Lu Jiu’s body.

A phantom image of a primordial spirit appeared behind Lu Jiu.

The illusory image of the primordial spirit looked exactly like Lu Jiu, and its hands quickly formed a hand seal, condensing into a dazzling golden rune.

“Xu Taiyi, swear by your primordial spirit and Dao heart that for the next thousand years, you will protect the Lu family and Zixia Divine Mountain will be an appendage of the Lu family. If you harbor any ill will or malice towards the Lu family, your primordial spirit will be destroyed and your Dao heart will be shattered!”

As he spoke, the illusory image of Lu Jiu’s primordial spirit behind him manipulated the condensed golden rune to come to Xu Taiyi’s front.

“Zixia Divine Mountain has become a vassal of the Lu family?”

“Master, this is not…”

The middle-aged shop owner’s expression changed, and he was about to speak.

After all, Zixia Divine Mountain holds a very important position in the Azure Realm. How could it possibly become a vassal of the Lu family? This condition is simply unacceptable!

However, he hadn’t finished speaking.

A second phantom of Lu Jiu’s primordial spirit appeared on his body, pointing a finger from a distance.

puff!

A crack appeared between the brows of the middle-aged shopkeeper, and his primordial spirit was shattered and destroyed in an instant, leaving only a shell that fell to the ground with a thud.

So what if it’s a true god?

In front of Lu Jiu, even if he doesn’t break his self-seal, a true god is nothing more than a slightly larger ant!

And what about Xu Taiyi?

His disciple was killed right before his eyes, yet he dared not utter a single word.

A thousand years isn’t a very long time.

The condition proposed by Lu Jiu wasn’t exactly harsh.

It could even be described as an act of leniency outside the law.

Xu Taiyi knew very well that if he did not agree to Lu Jiu’s conditions, not only would his disciple die, but he himself might not even be able to leave this door today.

I agree!

Xu Taiyi let out a long sigh, and then, as Lu Jiu requested, swore an oath with his own primordial spirit and Dao heart.

The moment he fulfilled his vow.

The golden rune instantly disappeared into Xu Taiyi’s brow, flowing smoothly into the depths of his consciousness and merging with his primordial spirit.

“Your old bones are still useful. I don’t think I need to teach you how to do things in the future.”

“With the oath imprinted on your soul, don’t try anything funny. Otherwise, once the soul imprint is triggered, not only will you be a Human Immortal, but even a Celestial Immortal or a Profound Immortal be instantly affected, your soul will be destroyed and your path will be extinguished!”

“You should be glad that I’m a fairly reasonable person. I didn’t make you a slave, but only made you a long-term employee of the Lu family. That’s giving you a lot of face.”

“You can thank me now.”

Xu Taiyi’s inner feelings were indescribable.

A being hailed as the ancestor of all gods has now fallen to the point of being a laborer for the Lu family. To put it nicely, he is a laborer; to put it bluntly, what is the difference between him and a slave?

Even if someone from the Lu family slapped him twice, he wouldn’t dare do anything, otherwise, if he harbored any ill intentions, his vow would come true.

His status plummeted, and his disciple was murdered right before his eyes, not to mention that.

He even has to say thank you!

“Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!”

Xu Taiyi felt that these words were extremely bitter!
