Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

ALONG THE WAY, when people saw their clothes, they received public remarks from people that weren’t so pleasant to the ears. It was overly displeasing that they wanted to explode in anger.

Nonetheless, they could only take it in. After all, they could only blame themselves for being the weakest group among others. Arriving at the Death City Palace of the City Palace Lord, Yang Lujia’s eyes were already sparkling. It was the same for his companies, the dog, Feng Huang, and Long Guang. At least Lin Diyu could still restrain himself.

Witnessing the others eating their fills, the group went on and arrived at an empty table filled with food. Eyes sparkling, they began to gobble up every food they picked.

On the table, the dog was using its paws to push the food closer to it. It especially chose meat and started devouring it with relish. On its side was Long Guang who was happily eating that veggies-type of food, while Feng Huang was going for the desserts on Yang Lujia’s side.

While they busied themselves eating, the others were dumbstruck. This was simply a great disrespect to the City Palace Lord. After all, the banquet had not even started yet but this group of kids actually ate food without permission.

Those food were all with spiritual energies. One could simply explode if one ate too much. However, even after an hour passed, while no one reprimanded them, they unknowingly finished all the food on the table. However, this bunch only burped and even started to look at the other tables.

“What the fuck are they doing? Aren’t they afraid of exploding? Why do they seem like…”

“Fuck! Where are the guards stationed here? Aren’t they going to scold these presumptuous fellows? They’re simply going too far!”_.

“I think those guards were called by the City Palace Lord’s daughter for instructions.”

“Wait, isn’t there yet the younger brother of the City Palace Lord’s daughter, Xia Jiali? Where is he?”

The moment the crowd heard the name of the youngest of the City Palace Lord, they looked around. When they saw the grim face of the boy, they tensed up.

“It seems like a show is about to brew,” City Lord Ice said while punching the man beside him in the face.

Wang Zhu didn’t mind whatever Yang Lujia and his group were doing anymore. He only wanted to save his life. At this point, he would certainly die because of bruises! Fuck this life!

The Runic Demon’s eyes, however, were not on Yang Lujia and the group but on the stairs where the City Palace Lord was going to walk down. On the other hand, Soul Demon was intently watching Yang Lujia. This was the kid called Cao Nima, from what he had heard in the news he received.

“However, I can’t see through him. This is weird. Why do I feel like he’s a mortal?” Baffled, he could only ignore this fact for the time being.

Behind him was Fierce Demon whose eyes were shining with delight as he continued to look expectantly at City Lord Ice. He would then throw some glances at Wang Zhu as though he was jealous. “If only City Lord Ice was willing to touch me…”

Speed Demon felt helpless over this. If this Fierce Demon would not find himself a hole to hide in, Speed Demon would do it himself for the other party and shove him inside. However, he anticipated more of the trouble brewing between Yang Lujia’s group and Xia Jiali.

“Hey, you country bumpkins! Have you ever even attended a banquet in the past?!”  Xia Jiali was so infuriated that he wanted to just kill this group in one go.

On the other hand, the others from the Eastern Territory were worried for Yang Lujia and his group. Especially Wang Lao. After all, they were the only hope he could rely on for the Eastern Territory to not be at the bottom again—to regain their reputation.

Yang Lujia was struck awoke. His vigilance once again came back. Although he was observing the others watching them before, his cautiousness was still there. However, thinking about it once more, it seemed like they became the center of attraction and the spotlight.

They even incurred the hate of someone wearing a golden robe.

This kid was actually someone who had almost the same status as the City Palace Lord himself. From what he had heard, this was the youngest of the City Palace Lord.

“We apologize, young lord. We didn’t know the banquet has not yet begun,” Yang Lujia swiftly dodged Xia Jiali’s anger at them. “May I know what compensation the young lord wants us to compensate?”

Xiao Jiali smugly strutted his way in their direction. “You? How much do you think you can compensate a young lord like me? My father is the leader of all territories. Do you think he would not give me anything I want?”

Expressionless, Yang Lujia bowed in front of the boy. “I hope that the young lord can be lenient. I recently found a treasure before. I remembered others called it the Amaryllis Blossoms. I think it’s a natural treasure that could help one advance from God King Realm to God Emperor Realm.”

“Oh?” Xia Jiali himself was surprised. He then probed into Yang Lujia’s cultivation level. However, he could not find out anything other than Yang Lujia being a mortal. He was stumped. “You? Why are you here? Are you a mortal? Do you think a mortal could easily get something like the Amaryllis Blossoms? This kind of flower, as far as I know, would attack its pursuers. It even killed someone at the God King Realm. You…”

Ignoring Xia Jiali, Yang Lujia pulled out the Amaryllis Blossoms from Fortuniel’s system space. His gaze then went bank to the other party. “This is Amaryllis Blossoms, young lord.”

The moment it was released, the others gasped in surprise. Even the God Emperors themselves. The Amaryllis Blossoms who was struggling to get rid of Yang Lujia’s grip on its stem swept its aura in the entire Death City Palace. It even alarmed those who were behind doors, the City Palace Lord’s daughter and the City Palace Lord himself.

“Fuck! That’s not the Amaryllis Blossoms at all! It’s the Amaryllis Flare!”

“That’s actually an Amaryllis Flare! That’s a treasure worth millions of high-grade spirit stones!”

“That’s right! The last time it appeared in an auction, it even reached the threshold of billions!”

“What?! It actually appeared in an auction before?”

“I think so?”

While the others busied themselves talking, Xia Jiali’s breathing already became ragged staring at the Amaryllis Flare. Its aura was fiery, very hot. One touch and it could burn him, even though he was at the Tenth Stage of the God King Realm. The more important matter was that this could help him advance from the God King Realm to the God Emperor Realm.

His father told him that he could participate in the Annual Death Ceremony as long as he reached the God Emperor Realm threshold. His father would make an exception for him. Although it was already a bit too late, the fact that this natural treasure could help him advance to a major realm could almost make him crazy in euphoria.

Then, he quickly regained his calm expression, not anymore angry with this young man in front of him. He even grinned and said, “You, where did you get this? How can a mortal like you get something like this?”

“Does it matter, young lord?” Yang Lujia smiled amiably.

“Right, it seems like I think too much,” Xia Jiali said and laughed his heart out. He then quickly retrieved the natural treasure. “From now on, we’re sworn brothers!” He anchored his shoulders on Yang Lujia’s and dragged him away from his disciples and the puppy.

Seeing that the natural treasure was already taken by the young lord, everyone’s clamor gradually subsided. However, before they could even reach another table filled with food because Xia Jiali thought of treating Yang Lujia another set of food, a young man’s voice echoed in the whole area.

“Xia Jiali!”

Xia Jiali’s eyes bulged out. “Big Brother Xia Jieke! You’re actually here!”

Xia Jieke’s figure from the main door disappeared and reappeared in front of the two. “Would you not introduce to me this new friend of yours?” His eyes scanned Yang Lujia in the eyes, then turned his gaze back to his brothers.

Xia Jiali’s legs turned jelly. That gaze always terrified him. His big brother was the never-before-seen genius in the entire Da Sishen. During last year’s Annual Death Competition, his big brother won first. Until now, no one knew the depths of his strength. Only their father could tell.

Especially those turquoise-tinted pupils of his big brother. They were cold. Even if his big brother was smiling, it still terrified him. Apart from his busy father, most of the time, his big brother was always the one who would train him.

On the other hand, Yang Lujia’s face turned solemn. He could naturally see through the cultivation level of this Xia Jieke. What was more was that, he felt that this man was extremely dangerous.

The most dangerous, so far.
