Chapter 212: Leeching Off the Old Folks!
Lu Qingyang's voice rang out, and the entire great hall fell silent, so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
No one failed to sense the aura radiating from Lu Qingyang.
Supreme Great Vehicle — it was not that the Great Evil Dynasty had none.
But among the younger generation of the imperial clan, only Lu Qingyang had reached this realm!
No, not just the younger generation.
Among all existing Supreme Great Vehicle cultivators, he was the only one as young as Lu Qingyang!
Lu Tianzhu raised his head to look at Lu Qingyang, and within his eyes there was not only surprise but a thick appreciation.
"Good boy. Without a word, you actually cultivated to Supreme."
Lu Tianzhu's voice trembled slightly.
As for Lu You, he had already been scared out of his wits.
After sensing the Supreme aura on Lu Qingyang, his trembling legs had not stopped.
He wanted to say something, opened his mouth, but could not say anything at all.
The pleading in his eyes was so thick it was about to flow out.
"Father, when do you plan to ascend?"
Lu Qingyang spoke again, his voice still calm.
In truth, Lu Qingyang was genuinely asking about this cheap old father's ascension date.
After all, in the Simulation, this old father of his counted as a major asset.
If he were missing, the difficulty this time really would not be so easy.
Hearing Lu Qingyang ask again.
Lu Tianzhu stood up, and the pressure of a peak Supreme slowly overflowed.
"Three years at most, within this year at the shortest — your father will ascend."
"And you? Do you plan to go with your father, or do you want to be emperor for a few years first?"
"Emperor? Boring. I'll go with Father."
Lu Qingyang changed his form of address.
Invisibly, it instantly drew him closer to Lu Tianzhu.
And the ministers below the hall, after hearing the conversation between Lu Qingyang and his father, all realized they had chosen the wrong side.
One by one they kowtowed, crying out in alarm.
"Your Majesty! His Highness the Crown Prince is a heaven-sent genius, cultivating to such a realm at such a young age!"
"He deserves to be called the Great Evil Prodigy!"
"Indeed! Our Great Evil having such a powerful Crown Prince is a blessing for our Great Evil!"
"Your Majesty, this subject concurs!"
"This subject also concurs!"
"..."
Streams of flattery flowed smoothly from those ministers' mouths.
The sight of everyone fawning even made Lu Qingyang somewhat dazed.
How do these people not even change their wording?
Their faces are truly thick beyond compare.
Lu Qingyang inwardly mocked them and paid the crowd no more attention.
After respectfully cupping his fists toward Lu Tianzhu.
Without waiting for Lu Tianzhu to speak, Lu Qingyang withdrew.
Now he had the right.
And the confidence to take his leave before the sovereign.
And as Lu Qingyang displayed his cultivation.
Throughout the Great Evil, everyone knew their Crown Prince had reached Great Vehicle.
Those who had originally looked down on him, wavering.
Even those who had thought of undermining him — the hostile factions all rushed to pledge allegiance at this moment.
Endlessly, people expressed goodwill and loyalty to Lu Qingyang through their subordinates.
But what they did not know was that the goodwill they were radiating was all useless effort.
Because Lu Qingyang would ascend before long...
Three years later, the Great Evil Dynasty.
Emperor Lu Tianzhu and Crown Prince Lu Qingyang ascended together.
Historically known as the Two Sages Ascend to Immortality!
And Lu Qingyang was a full nearly two hundred years faster than in the Simulation.
"BOOM!"
"Boom boom boom!"
On the day of ascension.
Within the Great Evil Dynasty's imperial palace.
Sky-filling rosy clouds and spiritual clouds filled the heavens.
All around were ministers and imperial cultivators watching the ascension.
Lu Qingyang and Lu Tianzhu both stood high in the sky.
Under countless people's astonished gazes and exclamations of praise.
They welcomed the guiding rosy clouds.
And then, upon the heavens, two clouds of guiding rosy clouds thick with immortal power suddenly appeared.
"Yang'er! Your father will set an example for you!"
"Today, father and son, we ascend together!"
Lu Tianzhu said, then soared upward.
Hearing this, Lu Qingyang laughed heartily and followed.
The time it takes to drink a cup of tea later, both figures vanished together from the mortal world...
The Immortal Realm.
Lu Qingyang and Lu Tianzhu ascended successfully.
The two had just arrived in the Immortal Realm.
Lu Qingyang's original intent was to find a place to continue lying low.
But who knew Lu Tianzhu was unwilling.
Saying they had finally ascended after so much trouble, how could they not explore everywhere.
Find some fortunes.
Hearing this, Lu Qingyang initially wanted to refuse.
But recalling that in the Simulation, Lu Tianzhu had ascended first.
And after Lu Qingyang ascended, Lu Tianzhu had already established his own power in the Immortal Realm.
So after thinking it through, Lu Qingyang decided not to stop him.
And so the two began exploring the Immortal Realm.
Walking and looking around, searching for fortunes.
Before long, Lu Tianzhu unexpectedly found a Ruins of the True Immortal.
Though it was only the legacy left by a Fifth-Turn True Immortal in meditation.
For Lu Qingyang and Lu Tianzhu, who had just ascended to the Immortal Realm, it was already a rare windfall.
The two explored the Secret Realm together.
Soon they had gains.
Each obtained a first-tier low-grade Immortal Artifact.
And also several Immortal Realm jade talismans, recording some Immortal Realm secrets.
It seems this cheap old father's fortune still works in the Immortal Realm.
If that's the case, can't I just leech off the old man this Return to True?
Why bother finding fortunes myself?
Lu Qingyang calculated inwardly.
On the surface, he became even more obedient to Lu Tianzhu.
And soon, Lu Tianzhu and Lu Qingyang encountered another weak True Immortal remnant tribe.
On Lu Tianzhu's suggestion, the two became Grand Elders of this True Immortal tribe.
Before many years passed, both their cultivations had breakthroughs.
Two hundred years later, when Lu Qingyang was nine hundred years old.
While out exploring with Lu Tianzhu, they unexpectedly encountered that miraculous Flower of Merit again.
This time, Lu Tianzhu again absorbed the Flower of Merit, achieving the Body of Merit.
And his cultivation stepped into Fourth-Turn True Immortal.
Lu Qingyang followed closely, stepping into Third-Turn True Immortal.
"Phew..."
If it continues like this, as long as nothing unexpected happens.
I estimate it will soon be time for the fisherman's profit in the Simulation.
Lu Qingyang recalled the Simulation process — at age 1122, his cheap father was bold enough to swoop in on two Human Immortal Immortal Lords.
And the greatest gain of the Simulation came precisely from this swoop.
Just don't know if this Return to True will also go so smoothly.
Lu Qingyang pondered inwardly, deciding to continue following the cheap old father's lead.
At the very least, get this fortune in hand first.
And time rolled on.
Soon, on a certain day, while Lu Qingyang and his father were wandering the Immortal Realm.
From the heavens suddenly came rolling thunder.
Immediately after, Lu Qingyang clearly saw two streaks of flowing light flickering from the distant horizon.
Lu Qingyang's heart stirred slightly.
In an instant he understood what this thing was.
For one exhilarating moment his mood surged, and before he could speak, he heard Lu Tianzhu beside him suddenly shout.
"Go!"
