Divine Realm?!
The crowd was first bewildered, then their expressions turned blank, a result of overwhelming shock.
None present were ordinary people. Though not involved in martial arts, they had some understanding of the martial world.
They knew that a Grandmaster of the Hua Realm could dominate a region.
The Four Supremes of the Heavenly Rankings were the apex of Grandmasters in the Hua Realm, practically unrivaled in the martial world, each holding significant importance.
And the Divine Realm was a state beyond the Hua Realm, a legendary state…
Zhou Zishan was overjoyed, his eyes alight with frenzy.
He had never imagined that a servant he had taken into his household twenty years ago was a Divine Realm martial artist!
He only knew Master Luo was very powerful, but he never expected Master Luo to be this strong.
Perhaps he was no less than Xiao Tian Ce, the God of War of the Northern Territory!
With such a powerful being guarding the Zhou family, how could they not prosper!
However, Master Luo soon denied the claim of Divine Realm.
“Divine Realm? I haven’t stepped into it yet. I can only be said to have glimpsed the Divine Realm, still a step away. I can barely be called a Glimpse-Divine Realm.”
Master Luo’s clear and calm voice emanated from his body.
Hearing Master Luo’s words, the crowd couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
But it was only a tiny bit of disappointment. Even a Glimpse-Divine Realm was beyond the Hua Realm, especially since Xi Yuan had already been defeated by him.
However, Zhou Zishan’s expression turned displeased.
In his opinion, Master Luo didn’t need to be so modest. Whether it was Divine Realm or Glimpse-Divine Realm, if he had claimed to be Divine Realm, no one would dare to question him!
He impatiently said, “Master Luo, why are you still wasting your breath with him? What is Xi Yuan, what are the Four Supremes of the Heavenly Rankings? They are nothing before you. Kill him with one move!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Master Luo’s sharp gaze shot towards him.
“Are you telling me how to do things?”
In an instant, Zhou Zishan felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. Under that gaze, he felt a chill to his bones, and every hair on his body stood on end.
“Zhou Zishan, for the past twenty years, I was willing to act as an old servant merely to conceal my identity and hide my strength. Today, I have revealed myself to everyone. What right do you have to point fingers at me?”
Hearing this, Zhou Zishan awoke as if from a dream.
Master Luo was a being who surpassed the Hua Realm. How could a mere Zhou family have the right to command him?
Thinking of this, Zhou Zishan’s old legs went weak, and he immediately knelt on the ground. “I dare not. I deserve death. Master Luo… no, Mr. Luo, I have offended you greatly just now. I beg Mr. Luo for forgiveness!”
Master Luo curved his lips. “You don’t need to be so formal with me. Regardless, your Zhou family has shown me kindness. After I settle my internal affairs, I will help you resolve your problems!”
Hearing this, Lu Datou suddenly stood up. With a flash, he launched another attack towards Master Luo.
“Heh, Datou, are you still going to oppose your master? It’s like a moth to a flame…”
As Master Luo’s voice rang out, he waved his palm forward. A dazzling sliver of light erupted from his fingertips, directly striking Lu Datou.
However, Lu Datou’s figure merely flickered slightly before transforming into a wisp of white smoke.
“Hmm? A fake?”
While Master Luo was pondering, Lu Datou’s true form had already appeared behind him.
Lu Datou channeled his internal energy, his arms and legs becoming like suction cups, firmly adhering to Master Luo’s body, much like an octopus.
“Datou, you have degenerated, cultivating such tricky and perverse skills. You should know that such petty tricks are useless against absolute strength!”
However, Lu Datou paid him no mind, as he also knew he couldn’t hold Master Luo for long.
But he would hold on for as long as he could!
He twisted his head and shouted at Chen Xiao, “Chen Xiao, quickly take your woman and leave! What are you still spacing out for? I can’t hold on much longer!”
Upon hearing this, Master Luo finally understood.
At the same time, Li Ziqing quickly tugged Chen Xiao’s arm. “Chen Xiao, let’s leave quickly. This Master Luo is too powerful. We should temporarily avoid his edge and not let Mr. Lu’s good intentions go to waste!”
Before Chen Xiao could speak, Master Luo’s body suddenly erupted with a golden light, causing everyone to cover their eyes again.
Simultaneously, Lu Datou let out a scream of agony.
When the golden light faded, he lay on the ground, utterly exhausted and battered. His body was covered in blood holes of various sizes, and blood flowed profusely.
“Hmph, Lu Datou, since you are determined to die, do not blame me for disregarding our master-disciple relationship!”
Master Luo gathered energy in his hand, forming a football-sized ball of light, covered in thorns, making it impossible to look at directly.
The ball of light shone brilliantly, and from afar, it looked as if Master Luo was holding a sun in his hand!
“Die!”
Master Luo charged towards Lu Datou, hurling the thorny ball of light at him fiercely!
In an instant, the temperature surged, and everyone present felt as if they were immersed in a sea of fire.
Their vision was filled with blinding white light, and some were even directly blinded.
The residual power tens of meters away was already so formidable. They couldn’t even imagine the power that Lu Datou, at the center of the light ball’s explosion, had to endure.
At the moment the ball of light exploded, Lu Datou closed his eyes, knowing he was doomed.
Scenes from his life flashed through his mind like a slideshow.
From practicing martial arts as a child, to his family’s ruin, to making a grave mistake, to becoming famous in the martial world as one of the Four Supremes of the Heavenly Rankings, to a life of hardship, and finally dying at the hands of his enemy…
His life was as brilliant as it was frustrating!
However, after waiting for a few seconds, the expected death did not come. He slowly opened his eyes, and a figure stood before him…
“Chen Xiao?”
Lu Datou exclaimed in disbelief. Had Chen Xiao taken Master Luo’s fatal blow for him?
How was this possible? How could Chen Xiao, at such a young age, possess such formidable strength?
However, facts did not lie. He was not dead, and he was not even injured, which was enough to explain everything.
Seeing Chen Xiao before him, Master Luo was even more incredulous.
“Kid, what is going on?”
His gaze was scattered; he couldn’t imagine what had happened.
He only knew that when the ball of light exploded, a figure had rushed forward. In his eyes, such an action was undoubtedly suicidal.
Yet, when the dust settled, Chen Xiao before him was unharmed. This was truly inexplicable.
Chen Xiao smiled calmly and said lightly, “Is this the Glimpse-Divine Realm? It seems to be nothing more than this…”
