Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

The killing intent revealed by Cai Hong made the bald man shiver in fear. It was as if the Holy Light Emperor was looking at him with the intent to kill—no—it was even more than what the Holy Light Emperor could emit. This aura was so terrifying that if Cai Hong would ask him to submit, he would directly kneel in response.

How could such a young-looking man, so strong as him, remain an unknown individual in the entire Da Shikong?

The bald man then went silent and Cai Hong simply did not want to bother with him anymore. Cai Hong did not want to be friends with someone like this baldy.

Sooner, however, the bald man itched to ask a question. “Young master, where did you come from? It couldn’t be that a genius like you remained unknown. After all, I pretty much knew almost all the geniuses in Da Shikong. However, they are pretty weak in front of you.”

“I came from the Autonomous Region. As for His Highness, we just met a few days ago and he helped me reach the peak of the Saint Emperor Realm after acknowledging him as my master,” Cai Hong straightforwardly replied. “If you want to submit to His Highness, it’s better if you ask him first. Also, remember not to act so arrogantly in front of him. Even if we were to fight, I’ll just be an ant to His Highness. He was that strong. No, he was a god. Using ‘strong’ as a term to describe him is simply an over-understatement.”

While Cai Hong praised Yang Lujia nonstop, the bald man’s heart was growing cold. He actually almost hit a hot iron. If he didn’t concede earlier before this young man’s threat, who knew what would happen to him after that?

Who could possibly tame someone like Cai Hong like this and Cai Hong was even respectfully addressing this person as His Highness? As strong as Cai Hong, who had the strength of the Saint Emperors of Da Shikong, instead of asking for fame and fortune, he instead chose to serve someone.

That was a wonder and a testament in itself that this ‘His Highness’ was really a terrifying person.

Despite these thoughts, the bald man calmed himself down and asked another question, “Where did you meet His Highness, young master?”

“Here, in the Third Region. After His Highness finished some business in the lower realms, he went here to finish some of his missions—”

“Wait!”

“What?” Cai Hong was somewhat displeased when the old man interrupted him.

“Young master, to clarify, did you just say ‘His Highness’ came from the lower realms?” the bald man meticulously asked, suppressing the shock in his heart that had been frequent ever since he came to this place.

“Yes,” Cai Hong directly replied. “It’s none of your business, though.”

“Oh-hoh, look who’s here. It seems like it’s my lucky day today to encounter this baldy here,” a man’s voice entered everyone’s ears.

Although Cai Hong ignored the man who just arrived, he still glanced in the man’s direction momentarily. His eyes then went back to the open gate of the Void Ground.

“Jin Hai, what are you doing here?” The bald man’s face turned gloomy.

After the bald man said such words, Jin Hai, who was hiding in the shadows, appeared before everyone.

“How can you be so fast to arrive at this place? Your palace is quite far away from this place,” the bald man said, sounding slightly surprised.

Jin Hai then replied and said, “It’s just a coincidence that I’m on a journey right now and happened to have been given the command by our emperor to invite the newly promoted Saint Emperor. On the other hand, what are you doing here, Bo Ang?”

Jin Hai’s eyes flashed with a sharp glint.

“I am also here for the same reason as you have,” Bo Ang replied. “Merely, the Saint Emperor you’re seeking for did not want to join anyone aside from ‘His Highness’.”

Bo Ang emphasized the ‘His Highness’ to imply something at Jin Hai.

“His Highness?” Jin Hai was taken aback. “Who is this ‘His Highness? Is it a Saint Emperor who personally went to escort this person?”

“I’m afraid that is not possible,” Bo Ang answered with a shake of his head.

“What?” Jin Hai could not think of any plausible reason why a newly promoted Saint Emperor would instead join someone who did not even own a palace. After all, almost all Saint Emperors belonged to a specific power in Da Shikong.

“Moreover,” Bo Ang paused and stared at Cai Hong.

Jin Hai noticed the strange gaze from Bo Ang. “What’s with him?”

“He’s the newly promoted Saint Emperor. Not only was he young, but he was already at the peak of the Saint Emperor Realm. In other words, he was on par with the Saint Emperors of our palaces.”

“What the fuck?” Jin Hai could not calm himself anymore. “Is what you said true?”

“Yes, absolutely. I actually tried to fight him earlier. If it were not for my politeness before, I would not have been spared. It was like he could kill someone like me as though I am an ant.”

Jin Hai’s mouth went agape. “That strong?”

Cai Hong did not hear their exchange of thoughts. After all, these two people were talking through voice transmissions. Cai Hong did not bat an eye on them, however. Jin Hai was merely an Inferiora, the same as Bo Ang, the bald man.

If it was before when he was still a Saint King, he would definitely be afraid. However, since he had now the strength to back up everything he’d say against others. He felt proud and arrogant. However, his cautious character was still there.

In fact, he always monitored everything around him. Even before the actual arrival of Jin Hai, he had already detected his pres
