What Lu Yuan did not expect was that the arrangement he had made with a 1% probability had actually played a role in the end…

In the Immortal Ascension Assembly.

At this moment, Xu Wan’er had confirmed to be blood-related to Jing Ming after he used the Bloodline Detection Technique to prove it again.

Xu Wan’er was a little awkward by the sudden appearance of an ancestor.

After all, Jing Ming looked like a middle-aged man in his thirties.

But in reality, this guy was already an old man with a lifespan of more than a thousand years.

Xu Wan’er couldn’t bring herself to call someone with such a face her ancestor.

On the other hand, Jing Ming’s kindness to her and his undisguised good intention towards her made Xu Wan’er feel as if she had met a family member after a long time.

Although Xu Wan’er was very cautious now, she was as steady as Lu Yuan who has steadiness engraved in his cells.

Therefore, after getting familiar with Jing Ming, the two of them began to talk.

During the conversation, Xu Wan’er also learned about Jing Ming and her grandmother’s past.

When she heard that Jing Ming and her grandmother was all a misunderstanding, Xu Wan’er also sighed.

She recalled that her father had once mentioned her grandmother, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

He even said in a serious manner that the Xu family’s ancestors were actually not ordinary people.

It was just that in their generation, the family had fallen.

Xu Wan’er thought that her father was joking.

After all, her generation was only the fourth generation.

The speed of this fall was a little too fast.

As Xu Wan’er was lost in her memories, Jing Ming learned from her who her ‘teacher ‘was.

It was the Young Master that she had been talking about before.

And this Young Master was a Qingyun Sect cultivator named Lu Yuan.

According to Xu Wan’er’s description, Lu Yuan was not just a guide on the path of cultivation to her.

He was also an existence comparable to a life mentor.

First, he saved her from the fire.

Then, he helped her solve the problem of being parasitized by the Buddha statue.

Jing Ming had heard of the devilish way, Huanxi Sect, in the Lower Realm.

Logically speaking, with the terrifying cultivation of the Upper Realm, it was completely capable of dealing with the three devilish sects.

However, the reality was that the strength of the three devilish sects in the Lower Realm was even slightly stronger than the five righteous sects.

No one would believe that this was the result of no secret manipulation by the Upper Realm.

The main reason for this was that the Upper Realm had created a relatively dangerous environment for the cultivators of the Lower Realm.

In a sense, the three devilish sects played the role of a catfish.

Its function was to increase the enthusiasm of other cultivators in the Lower Realm.

Moreover, the Three Upper Realm Sects would not allow the appearance of a single unified situation in the Lower Realm.

This was because, in the small worlds that were once controlled by the Upper Realm, there were cases of the Lower Realm refusing to obey the discipline of the Upper Realm after unification. And thus went against the Upper Realm.

Although the Upper Realm relied on its powerful foundation and strength, it still quickly suppressed this rebellion.

However, in the end, it still caused the Upper Realm to suffer considerable losses.

The most direct point was that the small world had cultivated for thousands of years before it finally recovered.

After all, the Upper Realm almost killed all the cultivators in that small world.

A unified Lower Realm was not a good thing for both the Lower Realm and the Upper Realm.

It was for this reason that the small worlds controlled by the Upper Realm were basically similar to their world. The righteous and devil ways were in a delicate balance, and no one could do anything to the other.

This was the general policy of the Upper Realm. Jing Ming did not care about it at all, nor did he have the ability to change it.

Even if he had the ability to change it, as someone who had a stake in the Upper Realm’s policy, Jing Ming would most likely not think of changing anything.

Why were there so many geniuses in the Upper Realm?

Why were the resources in the Upper Realm so much richer than those in the Lower Realm?

It was because there were countless places similar to the Myriad Bone Forest that continuously transported luck and spiritual energy to the Upper Realm.

That’s right, spiritual energy was also a part of the Upper Realm’s absorption of the Lower Realm’s resources.

However, this did not mean that Jing Ming would not do anything to the Huanxi Sect who dared to plot against his descendants.

Not to mention others, at least three generations of Huanxi Sect cultivators would be ready to face his retribution when the Immortal Ascension Assembly ended.

If Jing Ming guessed correctly, there were many cultivators from Huanxi Sect in the Immortal Ascension Assembly.

Among them, Heng Le, the Buddha Child of Huanxi Sect, was right under Jing Ming’s nose.

It was easy for Jing Ming if he wanted to do anything.

It was true that the Spirit Sword Sect had their eyes on the geniuses of the Lower Realm.

However, there was no comparison between a genius who had yet to grow and a genius who had already grown.

Not to mention that Heng Le was a Buddhist cultivator, so he was destined to be unable to join Spirit Sword Sect.

Therefore, Heng Le’s fate was basically already written.

Offending an Apotheosis Stage cultivator meant that he had no way out.

Under Jing Ming’s seemingly upright appearance, there was no lack of decisive killing.

In other words, cultivators who could cultivate to the Apotheosis Stage were not simple beings.

Jing Ming’s guilt towards Xu Wan’er’s grandmother was like his guilt towards his first love.

This first love was a special existence in any world.

After thinking about how to deal with the Huanxi Sect, Jing Ming directly began to ask Xu Wan’er about Lu Yuan.

“Wan’er, didn’t the Lu Yuan you mentioned come to participate in the Immortal Ascension Assembly?”

At this moment, Xu Wan’er, who was eating the immortal fruit, revealed a rare innocent look she had in her early years.

It could be seen how relaxed Xu Wan’er was after meeting Jing Ming, the patriarch in the Apotheosis Stage.

As she ate the immortal fruit, she said, “Young Master said that he has no interest in the Immortal Ascension Assembly and doesn’t want to go to the Upper Realm, so he won’t come.”

Hearing Lu Yuan did not want to come to the Upper Realm, Jing Ming asked curiously, “Oh? Why?”

Xu Wan’er thought for a moment and said, “Young Master might think that the Upper Realm is too dangerous.”

“After all, although Young Master’s talent is not bad, his talent should be good in the Upper Realm, but it won’t be outstanding. At that time, he will probably encounter a lot of trouble.”

“When Young Master was in the Great Xia Kingdom, he was very afraid of trouble. He basically didn’t go out if he could, even when he came here.”

In just a few words, the image of a lazy and cautious cultivator appeared in Jing Ming’s mind.

This made him frown.

Under Lu Yuan’s tutelage, Jing Ming felt that Xu Wan’er’s cautious personality was not bad.

However, as the saying goes, overdoing is as bad as not doing enough.

It was good to be cautious, but there was no need to be overly cautious.

In Jing Ming’s opinion, Lu Yuan’s choice to hide in the Lower Realm was actually an escape.

To avoid any possible dangers.

However, as a cultivator, especially a sword cultivator, it was good to be steady, but one definitely could not be afraid of difficulties.

Without the determination to press forward, how could one fight the enemy?

At least in Jing Ming’s eyes, other than being steady, a sword cultivator had to be ambitious.

And if one was only willing to stay in the Lower Realm, what kind of ambition was there to speak of?

Therefore, after knowing this information, Jing Ming’s impression of Lu Yuan instantly dropped by several levels.

Actually, if it wasn’t for the fact that he could tell that Xu Wan’er had some special feelings for Lu Yuan, Jing Ming couldn’t care about Lu Yuan’s situation. However, when he saw that this descendant of his seemed to have awakened her first love, his thoughts were exactly the same as the Xu family’s even though he didn’t want to admit it.

That was, he felt that it was not a good choice for Xu Wan’er to be with Lu Yuan.

As the only descendant of an Apotheosis Stage cultivator, Xu Wan’er’s current status was much more noble than the eldest daughter of many first-class families.

After all, a family definitely had more than one descendant.

However, Jing Ming only had Xu Wan’er.

Thinking of this, Jing Ming began to think about how to cut off the feelings between Xu Wan’er and Lu Yuan.

It was also at this moment that Jing Ming realized that there were indeed many changes in people when they got old.

For example, now he has become someone I once hated the most….
