Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

Chapter 190 Coming Out



When Cai Hong was sent back outside, he noticed that the old man from earlier had already disappeared. That old man was extremely strong and he felt a dangerous aura around him. Hence, he was rather vigilant about his presence.

Compared to Jin Hai and Bo Ang, who had gone back to their respective palaces to report what they found out, the old man was simply too powerful. With a single click of his finger, the old man could possibly kill the two of them.

In other words, that old man’s strength was on par with Cai Hong himself.

However, Cai Hong did not want to linger in that old man’s presence. He simply ignored the thought of the old man’s arrival then and stared directly at the entrance of the Void Ground. “Your Highness, how long are you going to stay inside? I just hope you did not encounter any mishaps.”

Meanwhile, Yang Lujia had already recovered his nonchalant face and was staring shamelessly at the three people before him. He then bowed with cupped hands and said, “Senior, this junior will now go out of this place. I hope that the seniors will be able to help me as soon as I return to the void with my family.”

“Why do you need our help? Hmph! Your family alone could help you!” the old tree refuted. “To the family you belong to, children like you are like valuable treasures. Always remember that.”

Yang Lujia was not surprised. From the very start, he suspected that his family might be from a colossal power and was someone everyone would feel afraid of the mere mention of their name.

Recalling the reaction of Brownie, the Devouring Void Puppy, a prince of the Devouring Void Dog Tribbe, he knew that the ‘Yang’ as his surname was definitely something very grand. Like in any other cultivation novel he had read, despite his busy schedule on Earth, he was able to encounter the same situation—where the protagonist’s family was akin to a feared monster—without the protagonist realizing that he actually had such a strong family.

Yang Lujia realized that his life’s journey in this world had become akin to a protagonist’s journey. He wondered if he really was the protagonist here. However, he doubted that as everyone was a protagonist of their own story, so he neglected this useless idea.

“Senior old tree, please let me out of this place,” he pleaded to the old tree and turned his way to look at the three old people while bowing slightly with cupped hands. “As for seniors, I hope we meet in the void as soon as I go there.”

The Wind King Tribe old man was pleased with Yang Lujia’s attitude, and so were the other two. “Now that our status as Inheritors is gone and we have already passed our inheritance to another kid, we will soon return to the void.”

All three of them smiled at him as Yang Lujia’s figure slowly dissipated from their sight.

“Why did you lie to him?” the old tree asked the three old people. “You know, you can’t get out unless you completely get rid of your status as Inheritors. You still have your other souls out there who have yet to pass on their inheritance.”

“I didn’t say we would absolutely set ourselves free. However, I am pleased with his attitude and talent. That’s why I made that upfront,” the Wind King Tribe said as he smiled like the other two old people.

“Whatever,” the old tree replied. “However, I am afraid that the next time you meet him, he’s already stronger than you by a hundred times. You don’t know that family. All of them are freaks and monsters. Each of them possesses talents that could make the heavens jealous.”

“What about that, though? He seems like a polite kid,” the Wind King Tribe old man refuted. “Senior old tree, do you have some grudge with that family? You sound like you don’t like them.”

“Hmph! Whatever!”

Cai Hong was still waiting for His Highness Yang Lujia to come out. Around him were treasures he extorted from the old people he got his inheritance from. He was slightly anticipating the arrival of His Highness.

“Cai Hong, what are all these things?” Yang Lujia suddenly appeared behind him, which frightened Cai Hong. Well, after recognizing the voice, he became even more excited than before.

“Your Highness! You’ve finally come out! I, Cai Hong, have long been anticipating your arrival!” Cai Hong passionately knelt in front of Yang Lujia.

“What are you doing? You may stand up,” Yang Lujia unhurriedly said. As he lifted Cai Hong by his arms, he surveyed the surroundings and found people waiting behind the shadows. However, among these people, he did not see the Dragon Phantom Sect or the Northern Wolves Sect people. “Where are the others? Where is Lan Mingyue?”

Cai Hong respectfully replied, “Your Highness, the Dragon Phantom Sect and the Northern Wolves Sect have just recently returned to their sects. Meanwhile, Ms. Lan Mingyue just left without saying a word.

“Furthermore, she had a look of worry in her eyes the moment she went out of the Void Ground for the first time. When I was about to ask her about what happened, she did not even look back and instead flew in a certain direction.”

“Why didn’t she tell you? She could just probably ask for your help while I’m away.” Yang Lujia felt confused. “Anyway, how about your inheritance? For three years, what did you obtain?”

“Scriptures, arts, and treasures!” Cai Hong’s eyes sparkled.

When Yang Lujia heard the word “treasures,” his body jolted—revealing an excited look in his eyes as he waited for Cai Hong to bring out all of those treasures.

GASP!

When Cai Hong finally brought out all of the treasures, Yang Lujia’s eyes twinkled in delight. “Fuck! So many! Good! Good! You’re truly reliable, Cai Hong! Hahaha!”

When Cai Hong first heard Yang Lujia’s laugh, he felt shocked as he had not heard His Highness laugh like this before. Knowing this was too rare of a scene, Cai Hong was even more elated when he was praised by His Highness. The elation rooted in the deepest part of his heart. His three-year wait was not put in vain!

Although three years was not that long for cultivators, when you anticipate something or love someone to the bone and they’ve been long missing, three years would be equivalent to three million years. That was what Cai Hong felt when he waited for His Highness.

Yang Lujia coughed in embarrassment as soon as he realized how he had shown his glee earlier. “Cai Hong, keep all these treasures with you for a while. We will be using this to help others cultivate.”

“Yes, Your Highness!”

“Wait! Before you keep those treasures, would you like to bet with me, milords?”

Cai Hong was immediately angered by the man’s sudden interruption and the way he called out to His Highness. “Impudent! Do you even know who His Highness—”

“Cai Hong, stop.” Yang Lujia waved his hand at him and instead focused his gaze on the man who was wearing a glistening robe. He looked like a general of an entire army, and he emitted the air of a Saint Emperor. In fact, his cultivation realm was the same as Cai Hong’s.

“What do you want?” Yang Lujia asked the man. “If you want to bet, what will be your stake?”

The man landed on the ground with an imposing air as if he was used to looking down on people. He then shifted his gaze to Cai Hong. Yang Lujia was simply too weak to talk to him. He felt like Cai Hong was the only one who was capable enough to stand toe-to-toe with him. “Young man, how about you bet with me?”

“Shut up! Don’t you dare ignore His Highness!” Cai Hong was gritting his teeth as he looked at the man who had a nonchalant look on his face.

However, he soon calmed down after hearing Yang Lujia send him a voice transmission. “Cai Hong, that man is extremely dangerous. However, you should also know that people can only see me as a mortal. Thus, you don’t have to worry about others ridiculing me. Just laugh at them for being ignorant. Anyway, accept his bet. I can easily throw him directly into hell if he tries anything funny.”

Seeing the suddenly calm expression of Cai Hong, the man was taken aback and even thought Cai Hong had something wrong with his brain.

“I appreciate your concern, Your Highness! Thank you!” Cai Hong replied via voice transmission.

However, what the man didn’t notice was that Yang Lujia had already disappeared beside Cai Hong and was already in the sky, highly expecting the battle to commence.

Yang Lujia smiled. “This shall serve as your training, Cai Hong. Cherish it. After all, it’s only been three years since you became a peak Saint Emperor. I don’t know what exactly your motive is for becoming so loyal like a dog to me. However, you seem to be related to the void and my family—you emit an aura that is the same as mine.”
