Chapter 25 First Encounter with the Old Celestial Master



"Good morning, Master Wang. Judging from your complexion, you don't seem to have slept well last night!"

Lu Renjia looked at Wang Ye's increasingly severe dark circles and teased him.

Wang Ye waved his hand and replied weakly, "Hey, don't talk about it, my head hurts a lot right now."

"Brother Lu, if you are in a hurry to go to Longhu Mountain, then please go ahead first. I need to take a break."

Last night, refusing to believe in superstitions, he continued to calculate Lu Renjia's origins.

The result was that after a busy night, nothing was accomplished.

Although Lu Renjia was asleep last night, he still had some understanding of what Wang Ye had done.

After saying goodbye, he left the room and went inside the hotel to find something to eat.

I just got my breakfast and went to a rather secluded spot to sit down.

Suddenly, two faint sounds came from the side.

"Have you heard? Last night, Wang Bing of the Wang family was ambushed and knocked unconscious. He almost died at the foot of Longhu Mountain. The Old Celestial Master is furious!"

"I already knew. I heard that Wang Ai, one of the Ten Elders, almost got into a fight on Longhu Mountain and tried to disrupt the Luotian Grand Ceremony."

A question mark appeared above Lu Renjia's head: Is this plot in the original work?

Furthermore, who in the world of supernatural beings doesn't know that Wang Bing is powerless and has the Wang family backing him up?

Who has the audacity to lay a hand on him?!

These things had nothing to do with Lu Renjia, since he slept like a log last night.

After breakfast, he went directly to Longhu Mountain, paid for the ticket, and went inside.

Unexpectedly, they ran into Zhang Chulan and his group again as soon as they went up the mountain.

"This is the mark of a celestial being. With your palm reading, young benefactor, you are destined for greatness..."

The monk's charade with Feng Baobao instantly drew everyone's attention.

After extensively publicizing the deeds of his master and the fire unicorn, he began to sell Buddhist prayer beads to Feng Baobao.

"This bracelet isn't 98,000, it's not 9,800, it's only 998!"

"I want it! I want it!"

Feng Baobao held up several red banknotes, shouting excitedly as if she had seen a priceless treasure.

Xu San stopped Feng Baobao, saying helplessly, "You've been fooled, Baobao. You actually believed that a monk came to our famous mountain to kill a fire qilin?!"

"I want it, the one I fought over 80,000 rounds to finally get."

Feng Baobao still wanted it, and she shouted at the top of her lungs.

The monk felt uncomfortable under the stares of those around him, so he quickly packed his things and left.

Lu Renjia found it all quite amusing; such a close-up view was something that could never be captured in anime.

"Sister Bao'er..."

This rush to give away money left Zhang Chulan speechless.

Those around her, witnessing this scene, were both amused and exasperated by Feng Baobao's antics.

Lu Renjia smiled and shook his head, then took a detour to the back of Longhu Mountain.

That is the Dragon Tiger Mountain of the supernatural world, the place where the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony is held.

Why take a detour?

He knew Feng Baobao, this lively character, because he didn't want anyone to know.

The area in front of Longhu Mountain was bustling with activity at this time.

The old master Zhang Zhiwei appeared there, happily dealing with the reporters.

That energetic performance made him seem more like a young person than some young person with dark circles under their eyes.

Lu Renjia could only say, "It's not going to be an old man's hot-blooded anime!"

Zhang Lingyu stood beside her, looking at her master with a helpless expression.

Suddenly, he caught sight of Lu Renjia out of the corner of his eye and quickly came out.

"Brother Lu, I was rude last time."

"Master Lingyu, it's alright. After all, we became friends through a fight, so let's just treat it as a friendly exchange."

In fact, Zhang Lingyu is a good person, but that "one thought" back then planted a demon in his heart.

He excels in every other aspect; one could say he is a person who is almost perfect.

At this moment, the Celestial Master had finished dealing with the reporters and came to Zhang Lingyu's side, glancing at Lu Renjia one last time.

"Lingyu, this must be young friend Lu!"

"Reporting to Master, this person is Brother Lu."

Zhang Zhiwei nodded and asked, "May I ask, young friend Lu, who your teacher is?"

"I am just a rogue cultivator from the world of supernatural beings, without any master or lineage. I am sorry to have made you laugh at me, Master."

Lu Renjia remained calm and composed, showing no signs of nervousness even when facing a peerless expert.

Moreover, he was telling the truth; he really didn't have any formal teacher.

Zhang Zhiwei squinted at Lu Renjia, trying to find a flaw in him.

However, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see the slightest problem.

That shouldn't be happening!

He could defeat Lingyu by cultivating alone.

Could it be that such a genius truly exists in the world?!

Zhang Zhiwei sighed and said, "I was being presumptuous. Lingyu, please take young friend Lu inside first!"

Lu Renjia cupped his hands in greeting and followed Zhang Lingyu to the trial stage of the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony.

Watching Lu Renjia's departing figure, Zhang Zhiwei couldn't help but sigh.

Because he... couldn't see through Lu Renjia.

The Luo Tian Grand Ceremony was a scheme he set up for Zhang Chulan, orchestrated in order to reclaim the position of Celestial Master.

Zhang Chulan thought his own disciple was his biggest obstacle, but an even bigger obstacle eventually appeared.

Moreover, Zhang Zhiwei is 100% certain that the person who made the move last night was definitely not Lu Renjia.

Therefore, the person who attacked Wang Bing can now be identified.

"Feng Zhenghao, I hope you stop playing around. You've hindered the progress of the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, so this old Taoist has no choice but to personally teach you a lesson."

It was actually very simple for Zhang Zhiwei to immediately guess that the murderer was Feng Zhenghao.

First, we can rule out Lu Jin; he wouldn't stoop to doing such a thing.

Secondly, we can rule out Lü Ci, because he and Wang Ai are in cahoots.

Then the only person left with the courage and ability is Feng Zhenghao.

After Lu Renjia left, Wang Ye, Zhang Chulan, Zhuge Qing, and others made their appearance.

Zhang Lingyu led Lu Renjia to a cliff, where a deep abyss about a hundred meters away appeared before them.

Several thick hemp ropes were attached to both sides, and the ropes would sway when the wind blew.

"Brother Lu, you can participate in the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony through here. After passing the trial, someone will take you to your guest room. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave."

"Take care, Master Lingyu!"

Lu Renjia replied and then focused his attention on the hemp ropes.

A young Taoist boy from Longhu Mountain came before him and explained, "Esteemed benefactor, only those who traverse this path are qualified to participate in the Luotian Grand Ritual."

"If there is no other way, please go over these ropes."

Lu Renjia nodded, knowing that this was done to control the number of people.

The extraordinary individuals here all display their unique abilities, doing whatever work comes their way.

However, getting through here was not difficult for him.

He used his telekinesis to levitate himself and flew over there.

This move completely stunned those mischievous individuals.

"Holy crap, this is some kind of god!"

The world of superhumans is full of all sorts of strange abilities, but very few, if any, superhumans can fly.

However, Lu Renjia's high-profile approach successfully attracted a lot of attention.

Among them were Feng Zhenghao and Wang Ai.

"Lu Renjia, you still dare to participate in the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony? Do you really think I, Feng Zhenghao, wouldn't dare to touch you?!"
