I'll Quit Being a God-Novel

The elderly person's scolding was so amusing that the young White Dragon girl standing nearby struggled to hold in her laughter.

And this is also the reason why the elderly person was displeased and felt that these two young individuals were being too frivolous and lacking in seriousness.

Regarding this, Lu Heng could only smile bitterly with a sense of resignation.

The Lord of the Heavenly Court…Superme God Lu Ai…

Indeed, everything is indeed related to Xiao Ai!

Even the so-called Heavenly Court seems to have been established by Xiao Ai herself.

And during the promotion, Xiao Ai attributed a large portion of the credit to Lu Heng, so the unsuspecting Lu Heng, who had no knowledge of this matter, inexplicably became the Heavenly Lord of the Celestial Desolation Realm.

After some consideration, Lu Heng continued, "Old sir, I can see that you have such a profound understanding of the immortals of the Heavenly Court… So, may I ask if you happen to know how many disciples the Heavenly Lord has?"

Lu Heng asked with a smiling face, "Heavenly Lord is so powerful, is it possible that he only has Supreme God Lu Ai as a disciple?"

Lu Heng's inquiry brightened the eyes of the nearby young white dragon girl, who quickly approached, eager to hear about the current situation of her senior martial siblings.

While the elderly person skeptically scrutinized Lu Heng from head to toe, he said, "You little child… How come you know nothing? This old man even suspects that you are deliberately teasing me…"

Lu Heng quickly smiled and said, "No, no, I absolutely didn't intend to mock you, sir. The junior truly lacks worldly knowledge and has never heard the tales of the celestial gods. That is why I sought guidance from you, kind sir, to remember the names of the divine beings. In the future, when I encounter temples, I shall offer incense to avoid disrespecting the divine and inviting calamity."

The elderly person stared at Lu Heng for a long time, finding it somewhat unbelievable that this person before him had no knowledge of such common sense.

After all, Lu Heng does have a remarkable temperament; one can tell at a glance that he is a well-bred and knowledgeable gentleman.

How can this esteemed gentleman not even know about the Heavenly Lord and the Supreme God?

Hmm… It seems to be a decorative pillow that is more about appearance than utility.

The elderly person shook his head and said, "Heavenly Lord has three disciples in total. They are Superme God Lu Ai, Heavenly Lord Gu Yan, and the most mysterious and inscrutable Spirit Keeper Fei Yi. Besides them, there are also rumors that Chakravartin You Yue of the Underworld is a named disciple of Heavenly Lord, and Witch Su Li from the ten witches of the Spirit Mountain has received enlightenment from Heavenly Lord…"

The elder was about to elaborate on the legendary stories of these divine beings, but Lu Heng furrowed his brow and said, "What about Sun Yan? Isn't there a demon cultivator named Sun Yan among the disciples of Heavenly Lord?"

Lu Heng voiced his perplexity.

However, the moment he uttered those words, the vast Ancestral Shrine fell into immediate silence.

From the elderly person before him, to the pilgrims not far away… Everyone stood frozen in place, their eyes filled with an incredulous and terrified gaze fixed upon Lu Heng, as if beholding a monstrous entity.

Such an uncanny situation caused a slight sinking feeling within Lu Heng's heart.

Sun Yan…

He asked somewhat anxiously, "Elder, is there no Sun Yan among the disciples of the Heavenly Lord?"

The elderly person in front of Lu Heng trembled at the mention of this name. After recovering from the shock, he hurriedly exclaimed in terror, "What nonsense are you spouting? Demon King Sun Yan… He is the leader of all the wicked creatures in the world! The consort of the monstrous Nine Phoenix from the Arctic Skyark Palace!"

"How could it possibly be a disciple of the Heavenly Lord! What nonsense are you talking!"

The elderly person scolded Lu Heng angrily and indignantly, "In the presence of the Heavenly Lord's divine position, what nonsense are you uttering? Hurry up and kneel before the Heavenly Lord to apologize!"

Speaking, the angry old man grabbed Lu Heng and was about to drag him to bow before the Heavenly Lord's statue in the grand hall.

Meanwhile, the nearby believers and spectators also regained their senses and surged forward, equally furious and emotionally charged like the old man.

"Yes! Kneel before the Heavenly Lord and apologize!"ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by N(o)vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.nᴇt

"Where did this uncivilized person come from, spouting nonsense!"

"Blasphemous and offensive to the divine position of the Heavenly Lord! Unforgivable!"

"Bowing and apologizing!"

As the angry crowd surged forward, Lu Heng was struck with astonishment by the intimidating atmosphere of the scene.

Taken aback by the words spoken by these people.

Demon King Sun Yan? The consort of the Nine Phoenix? The foremost among all the demons in the world?

This… Is it truly that wretched monkey under his tutelage that these people refer to as Sun Yan?

Lu Heng along with the young maiden of the White Dragon silently blended into the midst of the crowd, instantly vanishing amidst the people, thereby provoking a vehement outcry of indignation.

"He's gone! That scoundrel has vanished!"

"He is a cultivator! This scoundrel indeed has some issues!"

"It must be an evil cultivator who has infiltrated the city, deliberately causing trouble!"

"Quickly, go and summon the wizards to hunt down the demons!"

Inside the Ancestral Shrine, emotions ran high, and the clamors of people filled the air.

While in the void above the shrine, Lu Heng and the young white dragon maiden looked down upon the chaos below, leaving Lu Heng somewhat speechless.

The young white dragon even stuck out her tongue and said, "These mortals are just too excitable…"

Lu Heng let out a bitter smile and said, "I thought Sun Yan had met with an accident, but I never expected this monkey to be doing well. It's just… sigh…"

Demon King Sun Yan, the foremost among all the demonic beings in the world…

The title like this, even just the thought of it gave Lu Heng a headache.

Although Lu Heng had jokingly mentioned before with the young white dragon about not being surprised if demons appeared within their sect, when faced with such a situation in reality, he still couldn't accept it.

The current him not only had a headache but also felt a twinge of heartache.

If Sun Yan, this monkey, truly embarks on the path of darkness, then what follows…

Lu Heng was extremely troubled, while the young white dragon beside him spoke up, saying, "Oh… Master, why do you wear such a worried expression? The name Sun Yan sounds quite common, who can guarantee that the Demon King Sun Yan is definitely our senior martial brother? Perhaps it's just a coincidental similarity, don't frown, give us a smile."

The girl reached out and nervously tugged at Lu Heng's face, pulling forth a smile that looked more contorted than tearful.

Lu Heng, too indifferent to be bothered, allowed the girl to pull at his face, and helplessly said, "From the very beginning, Sun Yan, this monkey, has been treading a completely different path of cultivation from the rest of the disciples."

"He began his cultivation path when his lifespan was nearly depleted, losing his original vitality, which already made his cultivation journey arduous. After achieving a little success, he encountered a great calamity, being captured by evil demons and enduring endless torment."

"Compared to the naturally extraordinary Gu Yan and the exceptionally perceptive Fei Yi… It can be said that among the disciples, this monkey has had the most difficult and, in my heart, the most distressing journey."

"If he were to step onto the path of evil, the greatest responsibility would undoubtedly fall on me. It is my fault as his master for not properly guiding and protecting him… Sigh…"

As Lu Heng spoke more Lu Heng's mood worsened.

The white dragon maiden's eyes twinkled as she said with a playful smile, "Since Master cares so much about Senior Brother Sun Yan, how about we make a trip to the north?"

"Since Senior Brother Sun Yan is supposedly the leader of the demonic group and the male master of the Arctic Skyark Palace, we will definitely be able to find him up north. Along the way, we can also inquire about Senior Brother's situation. Perhaps there is another hidden reason behind his descent into darkness?"

The white dragon maiden said, "That so-called Nine Phoenix is clearly an ancient monster, yet she seduced and deceived Senior Brother Sun Yan… I suspect that this old woman had a hand in Senior Brother's descent into darkness! Master, we must not let her go easily!"
