within the Cauldron of Emptiness, a true spirit was born!It is precisely because of the presence of the Ling that Lei Bao was never able to truly become the master of the Jie Kong Ding. After all, no...Just as Jiang Yun and Xiao Zheng were chatting, inside the left eye of the statue at the Luo family, Luo Baichuan stood respectfully before Luo Qing and said, "Ancestor, after this battle, Ling Xiao's reputation has plummeted. Should we keep him as the young master, or choose someone else"

Lu Qing fell silent for a moment before saying, "In the Luo family, is there anyone with better aptitude than Luo Lingxiao"

"No!"

"Then let's keep him for now and have him participate in Xiao Zheng's selection. A dual-channel physique is also advantageous among pharmacists!"

"Yes!" Luo Baichuan bowed in agreement, then hesitated before continuing, "What about Jiang Yun How should we deal with him Should we send a few demon beasts to kill him after he leaves the Luo family As long as he's alive, he will always be a threat to our Luo family in the future."

"I have this all under control, you needn't worry about it! Now leave!"

"Yes, sir!"

Despite having many questions in his mind, Luo Baichuan didn't dare to ask and could only retire, starting to make arrangements for the banquet.

Soon, many cultivators were led by the Luo family servants to the banquet hall and successively presented their respective gifts.

Although most of them came for the Yaoshendzong, after all, it was the Luo family who provided this opportunity. Therefore, the gifts they brought, even if not rare, were extremely valuable.

When it was Jiang Yun's turn, the always composed Jiang Yun actually became a little awkward.

This naturally left everyone quite puzzled, until they saw the gift that Jiang Yun took out. At that moment, everyone's faces turned incredibly strange.

Jiang Yun's gift was a beast horn, but it was only half!

Ginger Cloud had naturally seen this gift a long time ago. He originally thought that this half beast horn must be some rare and precious material for alchemy or forging, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see anything special about it.

For this, he even took the corner to Nanxing City's magic weapon shop and asked someone to appraise it, but in the end, he was driven out.

because this is just incredibly ordinary, half a head chopped off from some kind of beast!

In other words, this half of a rhino horn, even if thrown on the street, no one would be willing to pick it up.

When she learned the result, Ginger Cloud's heart was in ruins. She even vaguely guessed that she must have been severely tricked by her master!

To give someone a broken animal horn as a birthday present, even if they are oblivious to social etiquette, is clearly a blatant provocation!

Even Ke Jiangyun didn't have the courage to replace his master's gift, nor did he have enough spirit stones to buy a high-end one. Therefore, he could only grit his teeth and take out this broken horn.

The servant responsible for recording the gifts, seeing this half-broken horn, almost choked on his breath.

After staring at the broken horn for a long time, he finally wrote down with a pen while snarling in a voice that everyone could hear: “To Daozong Jiangyun, the gift is half a beast horn!”

Before the man's voice could finish, Jiang Yun had already slipped away into the crowd. The unexpected scene was simply treated as a joke by everyone else.

After all, the Wen Daozong and Luo family have a feud, and the Luo family has not treated Jiang Yun kindly. Therefore, Jiang Yun taking out half of the beast's horn can also be seen as a retaliation.

As everyone presented their gifts, the banquet officially commenced.

Although the dishes were plentiful and Luo's family had also arranged for singing girls and dancing girls to liven up the occasion, almost no one had the appetite to eat or watch the performance. Everyone was just hoping that the banquet would end quickly.

More importantly, the protagonist of this birthday celebration, Lao Luo Qing, the patriarch of the Luo family, didn't show up at all.

Luo Baichuan merely greeted everyone as the host with a few words, so this birthday banquet left the diners feeling unsatisfied.

Just as the wine had flowed for three rounds and the dishes had passed through five flavors, just as the banquet was about to come to an end, a voice suddenly rang out above everyone's heads.

"Today, all of you esteemed friends have traveled far to celebrate my birthday. I am deeply grateful, and I should have been there in person to meet and thank you all. However, I am currently in seclusion and unable to attend, so I hope you will understand."

Upon hearing this, everyone naturally understood that the speaker must be the ancestor of the Luo family, Luo Qing!

Though this thousand-year-old cultivator has long since relinquished his position as head of the family, in actuality, it is still he who truly controls the Luo family.

It's not just because he is the eldest, but also because he is the only one among the Luo family who has attained the level of a Heavenly Immortal.

Even the Luo family's current status and scale can be said to have been built by him.

That's why everyone knew the Luo family was weak before coming to their doorstep. It was because the Luo family only had one cultivator at the Heavenly Cave realm, and even the current head of the family, Luo Baichuan, was only at the ninth level of the Pulse Connection realm.

Such strength, among the numerous factions within the entire Shan Hai realm, could only be ranked in the middle.

If Luo Qing wasn't good at managing and also came from the lineage of demon cultivators, then it's likely that other forces would have already divided and absorbed it long ago.

Therefore, for Luo Qing, this ancestor, even other forces paid great attention to him. Now that he spoke, everyone naturally responded in unison.

"It's alright, Luo Senior, your cultivation is important!"

Wishing Luo Senior a life as vast as the East Sea and longevity that rivals Mount Nanshan!

Amongst the cheers, Luo Qing's voice rose again: "To all of you who have been so kind, this old man has nothing to repay you with. Therefore, I have decided that after the three masters of Yaoshengzong finish their business, the Yaojiejie will be opened!"

"Every sect family who comes to my Luo family can send one person below the Heavenly Cave Realm!"

Demon World!

Upon hearing these three words, many of the older cultivators present immediately showed astonishment on their faces. As for the Luo family members, even Luo Baichuan himself, their expressions changed drastically.

Because the Refining Devil Realm is their Luo family's sacred land, let alone outsiders, even the Luo family disciples only have the privilege of entering once a year.

But now the Patriarch is so generous, allowing cultivators from other sects and families to enter. Naturally, this leaves them puzzled.

But they didn't dare speak a word, only casting their eyes upon the colossal statue that stood before them.

Ginger Cloud naturally didn't know what the Demon Refining Realm was. Fortunately, at this time, Xiao Zheng walked over to him with Xie Xiaoyong and said: "The so-called Demon Refining Realm is actually a secret realm, just like the five peaks of your問道宗. It contains both opportunities and dangers."

Jiang Yun suddenly understood that this Demon Refining Realm was actually a magic weapon, like the Zhantian Sword or the Phantom Beast Diagram, and naturally it was also one of the Luo family's foundations.

However, even though he understood, Jiang Yun's interest in this demon refining world remained low.

Because he had already obtained the complete Nine Arts of Refining Demons, opened up the twelfth meridian, and even surpassed the threshold of a Demon Refiner.

Even if there were any good things in this demon-taming world, they wouldn't hold any attraction for him.

Suddenly, a deafening boom echoed through the air. Upon that colossal statue towering hundreds of meters away, a radiant glow of nine colors erupted suddenly.

Look closely, the glow clearly emanates from the left hand that has always been on the statue's back.

And where there was emptiness in his left hand, under the glow, a scroll of bamboo slowly began to appear.

But this bamboo slip is not a statue, but a real object!

He stared at the bamboo scroll for a long time, especially at the statue's left hand holding the scroll. After a while, Jiang Yun suddenly turned his gaze to the statue's right hand that was outstretched but empty.

In his left hand, he held a bamboo slip. In his right hand, it seemed like he was also holding something. His left hand held a bamboo slip, and his right hand...should be holding…

After a moment of contemplation, a ray of light slowly blossomed in Jiang Yun's eyes. He uttered each word distinctly: "One, branch, pen!"
