Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

Yang Lujia decided to leave Cai Hong alone to investigate the matters of the Second Region. He merely told him to gather information about them as much as he could while he was away.

“When I’m back, I will immediately notify you,” Yang Lujia said as he tossed a token at Cai Hong. “That’s a communication token. It can be used specifically for communication.”

In fact, this communication token was among the rewards Fortuniel gave him when he received Long Guang as his disciple.

On the other hand, Cai Hong was very happy that he had been given another mission by His Highness. If others were to see his expression right now, they would think he must be an idiot for following someone like that—as though every order from that person was sacred and would benefit him.

After all, people in this world would always seek benefits. They would never believe someone like Cai Hong to exist. Even the closest of their friends would betray them, but not Cai Hong.

Cai Hong was only prejudicial towards others but not towards Yang Lujia. In other words, while he might not be selfish towards Yang Lujia, he might be towards other people if such a circumstance would warrant him to obtain something valuable for Yang Lujia.

“Yes, Your Highness!” Cai Hong hurriedly bowed and set off to find information about the Second Region. Once His Highness called him back, he would have several pieces of information with him to benefit His Highness’ knowledge.

Seeing Cai Hong leave with a delighted expression, Yang Lujia could only shake his head. No matter what, Cai Hong already knew his rules—if this kid killed someone, it would not have anything to do with him—after all, he had already warned him. If he happened to have deviated from this warning of his, that would mean it would already be beyond Yang Lujia’s jurisdictional control of Cai Hong’s decisions.

After all, although he was someone under his tutelage, Cai Hong was still a person who would make his own decisions.

“Forget it,” Yang Lujia said as he disappeared on the spot and entered Long Guang’s world.

However, after he entered, he was stunned by the sudden changes. The world where Long Guang used to stay and grow up had actually grown to such an extent that there was already an abundant amount of heaven and earth qi.

He could also feel that the cultivators, especially his old friends, had become much stronger than before.

The core of this world was made out of the life rules from the Realm of Life, and this realm’s core he created for Long Guang was connected to this disciple of his. If the world advanced by leaps and bounds, it would only mean this disciple had also become stronger. In other words, Long Guang was doing fine, and he even managed to break through so fast that his growth had already affected the entirety of the Long Guang World.

He truly missed that kid, especially his innocent face and eyes.

Nevertheless, if he wanted Long Guang to grow stronger, it was necessary not to chain him to his side. A child like him needed to see the world in order to learn the type of practicality and reality this world had been pursuing.

Shaking his head, he disappeared again and appeared in front of a large palace. This was actually a palace built by the City Lords of Da Sishen. They named this palace the Palace of Dawn—something related to what Yang Lujia had told them—about the name of the organization Yang Lujia was intending to erect.

He even intended to meet the siblings Wang Lao and Wang Zhu, who now became Saints due to their effort in cultivating diligently and utilizing the heaven and qi as well as the resources that had grown and nurtured in this world. He saw through that palace that these two were actually cultivating it. Moreover, on their other side was an old man—their father.

“Stop! What are you doing here? What do you want? Nobody like you could just conveniently enter this place! Otherwise, the lords inside will undoubtedly lash out at you and kick you out of this continent!” The palace guards pointed their spears at the approaching Yang Lujia.

Actually, they knew Yang Lujia. It was just that Yang Lujia had changed his face into someone they simply had no knowledge of.

“Interesting,hahahaha,” Yang Lujia reacted, his muffled laughs infuriating the palace guards.

“If you dare do something, we will not be lenient!”

Later on, while they kept aiming their attacks on Yang Lujia, the latter simply stood there without any incurred injuries at all. Their attacks were like only a breeze in the air as they either passed through his body or stopped an inch before him.

“What the hell? Who are you?” a palace guard finally asked.

“Don’t you remember me?” Yang Lujia then realized that these people did not want to incite rebellion. Instead, it was his issue that they attacked him.

His face remained unchanged. That was why they were attacking him relentlessly, as though he was an outsider.

“I understand now. I apologize for creating a misunderstanding earlier,” Yang Lujia immediately continued as he looked at the palace guards’ anxious faces.

They were actually one of the people who had followed him up to this point. Also, knowing his strength, he knew that they could not contend with him at all—much less incite a rebellion against someone who sheltered them.

After some time, Yang Lujia’s face started to revert back to being Cao Nima’s. It was the face he had been using in Da Sishen. Now, it actually felt refreshing to him to use this face. In fact, it was also his fault that they would erect a gargantuan sculpture of him in the middle of the continent with that face. He suddenly felt sorry for their efforts. After all, that was not his real face. It was something he randomly chose—just because he wanted to lie low.

“Chief Justice Cao!” The palace guards immediately knelt, their bodies even trembling in excitement.

This was the person they had always yearned to meet for three years already. They thought he had abandoned him, but he actually came back.

“It’s been quite a long time, eh? Now that you’ve grown up, I assume you did not regret your decision to follow me!”

“We are forever grateful for Chief Justice Cao’s grace. We will follow Chief Justice Cao’s rule and become his subordinates with a hundred percent loyalty! We, the people of this continent, have vowed to become loyal to Chief Justice Cao! Chief Justice Cao’s strength is unfathomable!” a palace guard, who seemed to be the leader of them all, spoke with overwhelming passion and emotion in his heart.

“It’s good that you still know how to recognize grievances from gratitude. Since you still remember, have the matters of this palace come out to see this Chief Justice.” Yang Lujia was nodding repeatedly as he saw the performance of these people.

He was thoroughly pleased. If before, he did not want to handle any other people, this time around was different. He felt like he needed to build his force for whatever was coming to trouble him.

As an insanely strong being, his instincts were telling him that the danger awaiting him in the future would be extremely rigorous and life-threatening. Therefore, he had to prepare himself and build an army that could assist him to fight whoever his enemy would be.

And he would start doing so by creating a name for this realm and by starting with the Four Regions.

The palace guard leader personally escorted Yang Lujia to the inside of the palace, and there, he waited for the Wang siblings and their father to come out. He did not want to complicate matters by distracting them from their seclusion—causing a backlash that might become irreversible to repair even for him—as powerful as he was.

After four days of waiting, while Yang Lujia was patiently sitting down in the hall of the palace, he met a woman. She was the City Lord Ice.

“You’re actually back?!” City Lord Ice was so surprised that his chin almost dropped to the ground as he looked at Yang Lujia like a ghost.

Seeing her acting like this, Yang Lujia joked, “Hey, fwhy are you looking at me like you’re certain I died?”

Yang Lujia understood, of course, their feelings. Although three years was long for him, three years of not seeing him—for them—was somewhat of a burden. It was something heavy to accept. It was like they were children abandoned by their own parents. Therefore, he did not blame her for her reaction.

No one could imagine, not even himself, that Yang Lujia, a notorious businessman and a person who was hailed as the smartest guy on Earth, had become understanding to this extent. As ruthless as he was on Earth, his change was simply incomparable in this world.
