Chapter 4136 The Nest Boss Luo Casually Built
The advancement of a true disciple to the [True Lord] level is a top priority among all the top sects in [Glorious Return to the Ruins].
The Tai Shi Demonic Sect naturally celebrated this momentously, as it signified a significant increase in the sect's overall strength.
"Gu Zhenchuan truly lives up to his reputation as a top-tier disciple of this generation!"
"He has a handsome and refined appearance; this is what true handsome and refined appearance looks like!"
"Look, it glows!"
"You're making a fuss over nothing! That's called the Light of Law... or the Radiance of Divine Art! It's a symbol of the eternal nature of the [Eternal Divine Art]!"
A figure in black was ascending the steps, surrounded by swirling colorful clouds and flowing divine light, appearing like a celestial being.
"Excellent, excellent, excellent! As expected of someone born with a divine body and innate Daoist bones! Changkong has truly not disappointed us!"
"Among the younger generation of various sects in Guixu, Changkong is undoubtedly the best!"
Inside the main hall, all the [True Lord] level elders smiled and nodded... Only [Ink Jade] True Lord showed no joy or sorrow—he was actually feeling heartbroken at the moment.
Seeing how outstanding other people's disciples are, while his own disciple seems to be facing a life-or-death crisis, how could he possibly be happy? Especially since Fairy Linglong was a vessel he had been cultivating for many years, and he hadn't even had a chance to harvest her yet...
【Moyu】The True Lord is in the main hall, but his mind is far from here... The training of true disciples is not to be interfered with by the elders of the sect; the life and death of disciples are left to fate.
But Fairy Linglong meant something different to True Monarch [Moyu]... One of his avatars had already quietly left [Glorious Ruins] before heading to the sect's main hall.
The place the Dharma Mirror finally explored was somewhere on the [Science Side]—also the place that True Monarch [Moyu]'s Dharma Body was heading to.
"From this day forward, Gu Changkong officially becomes the Demon Child of my [Primordial Demonic Sect]. In the future, he will embark on the Path to Immortality and spread the might of my Demonic Sect!"
Just then, a grand voice slowly rang out from inside the hall, and the twelve True Lords instantly turned their gazes to the black-clad youth who had already entered the hall.
From this day forward, the identity of this true disciple is completely different; his status as a demonic disciple of the demonic sect is now equal to theirs… or even greater.
"Chang Kong will live up to the sect's expectations and suppress all who resist on the path to becoming a Celestial Immortal..."

Marindo, Sky Auction House.
Fernando covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and walked slowly through the blood mist, leaning on his cane. Soon, Fernando, who was very familiar with the auction house, arrived at the place where the auction items were stored.
There were no security personnel to defend the property, but the security system in the auction house's warehouse was still operational.
A dark green emblem slowly bloomed between Fernando's eyebrows—Justin would be terrified if he saw it.
This was clearly the royal crest, and of a high rank...
The locks on the warehouse doors opened automatically, one by one. Fernando chuckled and stepped inside—this place not only stored the items that hadn't yet been auctioned today, but also some of the goods for the next auction.
Fernando casually picked up an irregular piece of metal, examined it for a moment, and then put it down.
Soon, Fernando took out a black and white jade pendant with two fish on it... The black fish on the jade pendant flew out instantly and then turned into a huge black shadow!
Under Fernando's command, the shadowy figure brutally swallowed some of the artifacts in the warehouse directly into its body.
Then, the black shadow returned to the jade pendant, and immediately the white fish on the jade pendant activated, spitting out orbs of light... Inside the orbs of light were the treasures that had just been swallowed by the black fish.
After doing all this, Fernando smiled with satisfaction and then left the warehouse... The warehouse's defense system was activated again, as if none of this had ever happened.
However, some of the artifacts in the warehouse had by then become fakes.
……
Venus returned with the Fairy Linglong.
His "wait a moment" was very meaningful, and Boss Luo indeed didn't have to wait too long.
"Is this the guy?" Long Xiruo narrowed her eyes, clicking her tongue in amazement. One side of Linglong Fairy's chest had been dented, but the other side was still high and firm... Oh, isn't this the same as Xiao Xiao's?
Venus nodded. "She should be a true disciple of the Primordial Demonic Sect who went out for training."
Boss Luo was clearly hearing the name "Tai Shi Demonic Sect" for the first time, and then asked about the sect's origins.
Venus was very knowledgeable and told us that this was a great sect located in the [Glorious Ruins]. This great demonic sect had once had a Grand Master, a powerful figure who had advanced to the fourth node.
"Lord Lin Yuan's arena is a regular training ground for these sect's true disciples..." Venus said calmly, "Every now and then, true disciples from the [Glorious Ruins] sect will voluntarily participate..."
The background checks on gladiators entering the arena are very thorough, because Venus knows a lot about the sects within the [Glorious Ruins].
The [Blood Asura Evil Array] used by Fairy Linglong this time was actually a move used in the arena by a true disciple of the [Primordial Demonic Sect].
“Her training will probably lead her down the path of an assassin,” Venus said after a moment’s thought.
Mr. Luo nodded. "Then it's up to you to interrogate him, Mr. Venus."
“Okay.” Venus nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the crystallized fairy instantly merged into his crystal hand.
Long Xiruo narrowed her eyes. Venus's Crystal Hand was like countless diamond cells... and at this moment, Fairy Linglong was sealed inside one of those diamond cells.
The two female warriors from the [Jinxiu] faction looked at each other in bewilderment. They had played virtually no role in this incident and were completely clueless about the [Tai Shi Demonic Sect]. This was not something they could access, so they could only silently memorize it and organize it to report back to His Highness [Anle].
As someone from the auction house, Kearns hesitated to speak, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
This incident has caused a huge uproar, with many people dead, and it involves countless noble circles in Marindor... Now that the murderer has been found, he should be handed over to the Sky Auction House.
—Forget it, this is something I can't handle myself. Let Lord Su Duo worry about it!
The Blood Asura Evil Array is slowly dissipating now that the person controlling it has disappeared... but the stench of blood at the scene is still so strong that it makes people nauseous.
……
Karns quickly found Sudo lying in a pool of blood... but Sudo was not injured, and the blood on his body was someone else's.
As the local manager of the Sky Dome Auction House, how could he not have some life-saving items on him?
"【Glorious Ruins】...【Primordial Demonic Cult】?"
Karns quickly reported what he had heard to Sudo... After listening, Sudo frowned deeply—this place where the defendant was located was not the third node that he could reach at all!
"My lord, let's think about how to clean up this mess. Too many nobles have died this time..."
Su Duo sighed. The waiters, security personnel, and ordinary employees at the auction... if they died, so be it. Some minor nobles were not a problem either. As long as the Fourth Princess and Li Wei Titus were safe, it was already a blessing in disguise.
“Tell the families of those deceased nobles that we will fully cover their [Life Bank] fees.” Su Duo rubbed his temples. “If they didn’t purchase [Life Bank] services, other cloning methods are also acceptable… If none of those are available, then just pay them back.”
Losing money is the most brutal, simple, and effective method; anything else is meaningless.
Su Duo has decided to swallow this bitter pill and only hopes to minimize the impact...
……
After arranging for Kearns to handle the aftermath, Su Duo immediately located the place where Boss Luo and his group were.
Even though he knew that the incident was caused by an assassination attempt, Su Duo still immediately put on a guilty expression the moment he saw Boss Luo.
"...Lord Li Wei, I am so sorry! It was a security lapse that caused you this fright!"
Su Duo looked like he was about to cry, refusing to mention the assassination attempt or the assassin himself, and instead directly blamed his own family's security.
In fact, the auction house does need to bear responsibility, since this happened within the auction house, and the auction house itself has an obligation to protect the safety of the customers entering the venue.
If you can't even control this place, who will come here again?
Even your own security chief has been taken over and secretly tampered with the energy shield, causing it to reverse and trap everyone inside the main building.
If Venus hadn't dealt with the situation so quickly, who knows how many more people would have died.
Therefore, this incident may have been caused by an assassination attempt on Levi Titus, but the Sky Auction House can only bear full responsibility.
That's how it was determined.
Even if it wasn't, Su Duo was certain that Princess Anle would make it a done deal... so it was more dignified to take it on herself rather than struggle.
After understanding Su Duo's intentions, Boss Luo didn't say much. After exchanging a few simple pleasantries, he took out the fifth auction item and said, "Mr. Su Duo, this is the fifth auction item that was lost in the chaos, and I just happened to find it."
Su Duo quickly said, "So it's here... I remember you were also bidding on item number five, Lord Li Wei, right? Consider this item number five as an apology from our firm... Lord Li Wei, please don't refuse. After all, if it weren't for you, it might have been taken by someone else, and they wouldn't be as noble as you to return it voluntarily..."
Mr. Luo casually said, "I think I'll just buy it."
Su Duo didn't want to get bogged down in this matter, so he said directly, "Then let's settle on your original offer. What do you think?"
“Okay.” Boss Luo nodded, then added after a moment’s thought, “Oh, right, there’s also item number eighty-seven…”
Su Duo's super brain remembers every detail of the items in this auction.
Without a second thought, he said, "Lowest price! Lowest price is fine! Lord Li Wei, please don't make things difficult for me anymore, or I'll start to cry."
"Alright then." Boss Luo smiled and then glanced at the maid.
Then the maid casually pulled out a black bank card.
Su Duo gasped. If he remembered correctly, the Void Bank had issued no more than a hundred of these black bank cards in the entire Science faction…
There should be several of these among the imperial family members. Could this be Princess Anle's?
But what Su Duo didn't know was that this card wasn't from the "Science Side," but rather a universal card usable by all four sides...
The transfer went smoothly.
After fiddling with the strange cube in his hand for a while, Boss Luo suddenly said, "Mr. Su Duo, could you do me a small favor?"
"Please speak..."
……
……
"...For me?"
The door remained closed until quite some time after the blood mist had dissipated, at which point the door to the VIP room where the Fourth Princess Phyllis was located was finally opened again.
She looked at Su Duo, who had a fawning expression on his face, with a puzzled expression, and couldn't help but frown.
“Yes, Your Highness.” Su Duo said with his head bowed, “This was entrusted to me by Lord Li Wei. He said that antiquities can only gain respect in the hands of those who truly appreciate them.”
“Levi Titus?” Princess Phyllis frowned, pondering, “Did he say anything else?”
She hadn't left the room to avoid running into him and making things awkward... Although it was because of Leonardo last time, she had indeed publicly accused him of being rude to her...
The key point is that this "rudeness" was ultimately proven true.
Su Duo quickly replied, "Lord Li Wei said that what happened last time had nothing to do with Your Highness, and he hopes that you will not take it to heart."
Princess Phyllis remained silent for a long while, then asked, "Where is he?"
"Lord Li Wei has already left," Su Duo said hurriedly.
"I'll accept the things." Princess Phyllis nodded calmly, then asked some questions about the incident.
Su Duo was straightforward, giving a general account of what he knew, but omitting the fact that this trip might be for the assassination of [Livi Titus].
Princess Phyllis didn't expose her either.
In addition to the fifth item up for auction, Su Duo also sent two antiques that had not yet been auctioned as an apology... The Fourth Princess did not refuse.
……
Inside the spaceship, Princess Phyllis looked at the three collectibles on the table—she hadn't spent a penny, but she felt no joy whatsoever.
"Your Highness, what is the meaning of this Livi Titus?" Allen frowned, his face full of vigilance. "This man is clearly already Princess Anle's man, yet he still tries to curry favor with you. He most likely has ill intentions..."
Princess Phyllis glanced at Allen with displeasure.
Allen quickly lowered his head, realizing that he might have overreacted.
The princess sighed and muttered to herself, "He's not Li Guo's man... I think Li Guo is his man."
Having lived for so many years, how could she not see that Princess Anle was completely infatuated? Although she was under Leonardo's control that day, her memory was very clear.
It was precisely because her memory was so clear that she had this feeling of being dead—Francis felt the same way, otherwise he wouldn't have pretended to be dead back then.
Currently, both she and Francis are tacitly claiming that their memories of being controlled are vague... or even nonexistent.
"This……"
Allen couldn't help but look incredulous at Princess Phyllis's statement.
Princess Phyllis ignored him and casually picked up the fifth item to play with.
The fifth item in the auction was quite mysterious, and she couldn't figure out its origin for the time being... This requires further investigation, but she sensed a hidden energy source within the cube.
Perhaps it really is related to the long-lost Hero Race from the Science faction...
She then picked up two more items from her collection—she was a genuine lover of antiques, and the other two pieces that Su Duo had given her were clearly carefully selected.
He must have researched his own preferences.
"Ok?"
Suddenly, Princess Phyllis frowned.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Princess Phyllis singled out one of the two collectibles sent by Su Duo and said indifferently, "This is a fake..."
……
……
Justin had no recollection of how he left the auction house; he only heard about it from his grandfather.
The auction was attacked; a spaceship crashed directly into the main venue... and he lost consciousness in the impact.
After hearing this, Justin's mind went blank... He remembered that it wasn't like that at all; he remembered that he seemed to have suddenly started evolving.
To Justin's surprise and delight, although he didn't remember what had happened, the evolution was already complete—he had unknowingly unlocked the fourth gene lock... and on that basis, his evolutionary progress had increased significantly, perhaps allowing him to move toward the fifth gene lock.
How strong am I right now?
Can't we tear apart the space mechs of the Imperial regular army now?
Justin glanced at his grandfather Fernando... Fernando remained silent throughout the journey. Only after returning to his own flying car did Fernando mysteriously take out a space capsule.
"Grandfather, what is this?"
Fernando made a shushing gesture mysteriously, then lowered his voice and said, "The Sword of Glory [Glad]! I was just lucky. I took it quietly during the chaos, without spending a penny, and no one saw me..."
Justin's eyes widened immediately.
What kind of luck did my old grandfather have...?
"If the Sky Auction House finds out about this..."
“Take it to the ancestral land and give it to that guardian. Who will know?” Fernando tapped his eldest grandson on the head. “Unless you report me!”
"How could I..."
Justin almost cried his eyes out because his grandfather was so good to him... This must be the full support from his elders, right?
……
……
On the other spaceship, Brother Shaq was so moved he wanted to cry.
"This is for me?" Brother Shaq's breathing became erratic as he stared at the golden hook in the box, his face filled with excitement. "My dear brother! You truly are my good brother... Tell me, who are you going to kill?!"
"I don't need to kill anyone," Boss Luo said with a slight smile. "I'm just helping you buy it. Brother Shak can just reimburse me."
Brother Shaq was very generous; without saying a word, he took out more than a dozen bank cards.
Little Angelica smiled and collected everything. It's normal for the owner to buy things, raise the price, and then sell them... right?
After all, the owner is a businessman!
