“It’s fine. Our benefactor should be here soon. Let’s thank our benefactor first. If not for him, we would have definitely died.”
The one-armed man’s face was pale. He rubbed Lu Changsheng’s head dotingly and then turned to look into the distance.
Soon, a graceful figure rushed over from afar and finally stopped in front of everyone.
This person was wearing a martial artist outfit with a long saber at his waist, a black gold bow in his hand, and a quiver on his back.
This person was handsome and had a unique aura, giving off a very beautiful feeling.
Seeing the figure appear, the one-armed man hurriedly took a step forward and spoke gratefully.
“I’m Lu Yuan from the Xia Capital. Thank you for saving my life.”
“Thank you for saving my life.”
Although the remaining burly men were covered in injuries, they still cupped their hands and bowed.
“My name is Li Xuan. Everyone, you’re too polite. Hurry up and treat your injuries.” Li Xuan cupped his hands and urged everyone to quickly treat their injuries.
He could see the information of these people with a sweep of his eyes.
There was no need for introductions. Moreover, these people were all severely injured. The longer this dragged on, the worse it would be.
In particular, the one-armed Lu Yuan had lost his left arm. He could only control the flow of blood for a short period of time through the body refinement technique.
However, this was not a long-term plan. He had to treat his injuries as soon as possible.
“Thank you, benefactor.”
The one-armed Lu Yuan thanked again solemnly and began to treat his injuries.
This guy was a tough guy. He could even resist the enemy after losing an arm. Even when he stitched up the wound, his expression did not change.
During this process, he even chatted happily with Li Xuan, as if he had not just lost an arm.
During the conversation, they also became familiar with each other. Li Xuan took the opportunity to suggest taking the other party’s son as his disciple.
“Take my son as your disciple?”
The one-armed Lu Yuan was slightly stunned and asked in disbelief, “You want to take him in as your disciple?”
“Yes, your son Lu Changsheng is very talented. His future potential is limitless. He’s very suitable to be my disciple.” Li Xuan smiled.
“Really? But my son has never been able to circulate his blood essence and his body is also very bad. I came out this time to find natural treasures for my son.”
The one-armed Lu Yuan said in surprise, not daring to believe that his son’s talent was very good.
“Believe me, your son is very talented. Otherwise, I wouldn’t want to take him in as my disciple,” Li Xuan said confidently.
“This…”
The one-armed Lu Yuan was shocked and suspicious. He still did not dare to believe his son’s talent.
Thinking that Li Xuan was their benefactor and Lu Changsheng was still unable to cultivate, the one-armed Lu Yuan thought for a moment and said.
“Son, quickly become his disciple. Perhaps he can help you find a solution.”
“Yes, Father.”
Lu Changsheng looked at Li Xuan hopefully. Then, he knelt down and bowed deeply to Li Xuan.
“Greetings, Master.”
[Ding! You have successfully taken in a peerless talent disciple. Reward: Peerless Sword Cultivator talent.]
[Ding! Your disciple is the chosen one. Another talent reward: Blood Avatar.]
Ding!
Name: Li Xuan
Physique: Seventh level of the Body Refining Realm
Abilities: Sharpshooter, Gale Saber Technique, Cloud Steps
Disciples: Qin Yue, Lu Changsheng
…
“Alright, alright, get up. From now on, you’re my disciple.”
Li Xuan looked at the rewards and helped Lu Changsheng up in surprise. When he saw the ability of the blood avatar clearly, he felt that the future was even brighter.
However, at this moment, Li Xuan swept his gaze over the black ring on Lu Changsheng’s left hand and suddenly saw a notification.
[Black Emperor: A knowledgeable person who is proficient in various martial arts and sealing techniques. Lu Changsheng’s Dao Protector’s soul is placed in the ring and can’t be taken in as a disciple.]
Seeing this notification, Li Xuan was immediately enlightened.
Previously, when he took Qin Yue in as his disciple, the system had reminded him that Qin Yue had a special bloodline. In the future, as long as Qin Yue’s bloodline awakened, she would be able to obtain powerful strength.
Compared to Qin Yue, Lu Changsheng was much worse. Although he had peerless talent, he did not have a bloodline. Now that Li Xuan saw the ring, he understood the reason.
Clearly, the elder in the ring would help Lu Changsheng break the seal and become a powerful martial god.
“Master, why can’t I successfully circulate my blood if I have cultivation talent?”
Lu Changsheng’s voice sounded, his voice filled with confusion.
Seeing Lu Changsheng’s expectant eyes, Li Xuan raised his hand and patted his shoulder to comfort him.
“Disciple, don’t worry. Your talent has been sealed. That’s why you can’t use it.”
“Seal?”
Lu Changsheng looked at Li Xuan in confusion.
“Yes! According to my observation, your talent has reached the peerless level. However, you’re in a sealed state, so you’re unable to circulate your blood.”
Li Xuan looked around and whispered to Lu Changsheng and Lu Yuan.
“Peerless?!”
Lu Changsheng and Lu Yuan were shocked when they heard this.
It had to be known that talent was divided into many types. Starting from the bottom, there were low-grade, mid-grade, high-grade, top-grade, and the legendary peerless-grade.
Top-grade was already very powerful, but now, Li Xuan said that Lu Changsheng had reached the peerless level. This was a little terrifying.
“Re… really? Do I really have peerless talent?” Lu Changsheng was shocked.
“Yes, I guarantee it.”
Li Xuan’s words were firm and powerful.
These words also surprised Lu Changsheng, and his pale face also started to turn red.
However, thinking that his talent was sealed, Lu Changsheng felt disappointed. He did not know when he could unlock it.
“Disciple, your fate is extraordinary. Don’t worry about the seal. Sooner or later, someone will undo the seal for you. If no one helps you in the future, I’ll help you undo it.”
Seeing that Lu Changsheng was disappointed, Li Xuan consoled him. After all, Lu Changsheng was his disciple and he still had to take care of the other party.
Moreover, as Lu Changsheng’s strength increased, Li Xuan could also receive rewards. Therefore, Li Xuan planned to wait for a few years. If the elder in the ring did not help, Li Xuan would think of a way to help this disciple.
Of course.
Of course, the more important thing now was to study the blood avatar, so Li Xuan found an excuse to leave.
Not long after Li Xuan left, as Lu Changsheng helped his father bandage his wound, he asked, “Father, is what Master said true? Do I really have a peerless talent and an extraordinary fate?”
“This… I’m not sure either.” Lu Yuan shook his head.
He had gotten someone to test Lu Changsheng and the result was that Lu Changsheng’s physique was too poor. They even said that Lu Changsheng did not have any martial arts talent.
However, Li Xuan actually said that Lu Changsheng had peerless martial arts talent. This was really unbelievable, so Lu Yuan naturally had some doubts.
“I see. I understand.”
Lu Changsheng was somewhat disappointed. He really wanted to know if this was true. Unfortunately, even his father did not know.
Helpless, Lu Changsheng could only wait for the future to verify all of this.
“Father, I’ll go get some water.”
Seeing that there was no more water in the water gourd, Lu Changsheng said to his father and walked towards the stream beside the valley.
That place was very safe and close. He did not have to worry about safety.
When he arrived at the stream to receive the water, an old voice suddenly sounded.
“Kid, you do have peerless talent.”
“Who is it?” Lu Changsheng stood up fiercely and looked around warily.
“Don’t worry, I’m in your ring. You can call me Black Emperor.” The old voice sounded again and directly entered Lu Changsheng’s ear.
This voice made Lu Changsheng suspicious. He felt that this old man was not simple.
“Do… do I really have peerless talent?”
“That’s right. Moreover, it’s an extremely terrifying peerless talent. I originally wanted to take you in as my disciple, but I didn’t expect someone to be one step ahead of me. I can’t see through that person,” the old voice said again.
“You can’t? Do you mean Master?” Lu Changsheng asked again.
“That’s right. Your master Li Xuan’s strength is very ordinary. He’s only at the seventh level of the Body Refining Realm, but he actually saw through your talent at a glance and even saw that your fate is extraordinary.”
“It has to be known that even I had to spend several years and a lot of strength to find out that your fate is extraordinary.
“But your master saw through it at a glance. This is very unbelievable,” the old voice said solemnly.
