Chapter 66 Lu Ming, the Ten-Thousand-Year Ancestor! The Seventh on the Martial Soul Ranking Revealed! Lu Ming's Disciple?!
Shui Bing'er's cheeks grew redder the more she thought about it, but her eyes became increasingly determined.
Once the deed is done, there's nothing the chef can do.
After all, my master is the most soft-hearted and the most responsible person.
At worst, I can apologize to my master properly later, and maybe even act cute. My master definitely won't blame me.
"Master, Bing'er won't let you run away again!"
Amidst the wind and snow, Shui Bing'er sat down again, but this time, her gaze was fixed on the sky, awaiting the arrival of her glory.
...
Tiandou City, Ye Family Mansion.
As the leading healing-type Soul Master family in the Heaven Dou Empire, the Ye family welcomes an extremely distinguished guest today.
Xue Ke, one of the current rulers of the Heaven Dou Empire, was once a princess and is now the empress.
However, this empress, who once held sway over the court, stared wide-eyed with utter disregard for decorum, almost dropping her teacup.
"benefactor?!"
Xue Ke's voice trembled as she looked at the young man sitting leisurely in the armchair, sipping tea.
"Is it really you?!"
She received word from her subordinates that a man who looked remarkably like her benefactor from years ago had come to the Ye family.
She had initially thought it was just a resemblance, or perhaps a descendant of her benefactor.
So she put aside her official duties and rushed over in a great hurry.
But when she actually saw that face, all her reason crumbled.
Those eyebrows, that temperament, even the slight upward flick of the little finger while drinking tea, all perfectly overlapped with the figure in my memory.
The protagonist, Lu Ming, put down his teacup and glanced at the beautiful woman in front of him.
He said calmly:
"Xiao Xueke".
"Long time no see! I didn't expect you to have grown so much."
That cry of "Little Xueke" shattered Xueke's last line of defense.
It's been over twenty years.
Since her benefactor left, no one has dared to call her that anymore.
Xue Ke stepped forward quickly, completely disregarding the distinction between ruler and subject, wanting to reach out and touch it, yet he dared not, fearing that this was just a dream.
"benefactor..."
"More than twenty years have passed, how come you... haven't changed at all?"
Time has left its mark on Xueke's face.
But the Lu Ming in front of him still looked like that young man in his early twenties.
With fair skin and clear eyes, time seemed to have stood still for him.
Lu Ming smiled and waved casually:
"A good mindset naturally slows down the aging process."
At this moment, Ye Lingling, who had been standing to the side, walked up.
She was wearing a long black dress, and her cool expression carried a hint of helplessness.
"His Majesty."
"Please watch your words."
Ye Lingling bowed slightly to Xue Ke, then pointed at Lu Ming.
"This person is not someone of the same age who has mastered the art of preserving youth."
Xue Ke was taken aback and turned to look at Ye Lingling.
"Lingling, what do you mean? He's the one who saved me back then..."
Ye Lingling took a deep breath, her tone becoming extremely solemn:
"He is the ancestor of our Ye family."
"Moreover, he is the one who created the Ye family genealogy, the very source of the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul inheritance..."
"An ancestor of ten thousand years".
boom!
These words struck Xue Ke like a thunderbolt, exploding directly in her mind.
She froze completely.
"What?"
"Your benefactor is the ancestor of your Ye family?"
"Or... an ancient ancestor?"
Xueke felt her worldview collapse and rebuild itself at that moment.
Ten thousand years?
Isn't that a legendary existence?
My benefactor has lived for ten thousand years?
Her gaze toward Lu Ming instantly became both awe-inspiring and strange.
The benefactor he had been thinking about for over twenty years turned out to be an old monster who had lived for ten thousand years.
Just then, the scene above the sky changed again.
The original description of the Haotian Hammer slowly faded away, replaced by a new brilliance.
Standing to the side, Ah Yin had no interest in the new rankings at the moment.
She clutched her chest, her beautiful face filled with bewilderment.
"The Clear Sky Hammer is only ranked eighth?"
"That's the faith of the Haotian Sect."
"How could it be so low?"
Bai Xiuxiu, standing on the other side, snorted coldly upon hearing A Yin's mutterings.
A flicker of disgust flashed in her deep blue eyes.
"Does a hypocritical scoundrel like Tang San deserve to be on the Spirit Ranking?"
"Eighth place is already giving him too much credit."
"If there were a list of shameless people, he would definitely be at the top."
Upon hearing this, Ah Yin didn't know what to say.
Xue Ke also recovered from her shock at this moment.
She looked at the sky, then at Lu Ming, who was calmly drinking tea in front of her.
"No matter how long the benefactor has lived or what their status is."
"If it weren't for my benefactor, my Swan Martial Soul wouldn't have been able to evolve into the Radiant White Swan, ranking ninth on the Martial Soul Ranking."
"My benefactor, Xueke wants to repay you."
"Xue Ke can give you the entire Heaven Dou Empire, as long as my benefactor wants it."
Lu Ming waved his hand, about to speak.
A loud phoenix cry suddenly rang out from the sky.
That was a cry unlike any other bird's, carrying a chilling and noble quality that pierced the soul.
All eyes were drawn to it.
[Ranked seventh on the Martial Soul Ranking!]
[Ice Phoenix!]
In the sky, a phoenix with a crystal-clear body soared into the heavens.
It is not constructed of fire, but sculpted from the purest ice.
Each feather is like the most perfect ice crystal in the world, refracting a rainbow of colors.
As it took flight, the surrounding space seemed to freeze, and snowflakes danced in the air.
Ultimate!
sacred!
Inviolable!
[Ultimate Martial Soul!!]
[Possessing ultimate ice attributes, capable of materializing for attacks, it is the king among avian martial souls.]
The appearance of these few lines of large characters instantly caused a sensation throughout the entire continent.
Ultimate Martial Soul!
This is a quality that only exists in legends.
However, what is even more shocking is the text description that appears next.
[Master: Shui Bing'er.]
Shui Bing'er was originally an orphan who lived on the streets. At the age of five, she was fortunate enough to be taken in as a disciple by the renowned master Lu Ming!
At that time, Shui Bing'er was suffering from a cold poison, and Lu Ming spared no effort, consuming his own life force, to cleanse her meridians day and night and heal her hidden injuries!
At the age of six, when Shui Bing'er awakened her martial soul, her talent, though good, was not top-tier. Lu Ming once again sacrificed twenty years of his lifespan, drawing upon the essence of heaven and earth to forcibly help her martial soul evolve and transform her aptitude!
[Finally, it evolved into the legendary ultimate martial soul—the Ice Phoenix!]
This passage caused an uproar.
Consumes life force?
Wasting twenty years of one's lifespan?
What kind of master craftsman is this?

...
at the same time.
The outer edge of the Starry Sky Forest.
Three figures were speeding towards Jialing Pass.
The woman at the head of the group had long silver hair and purple eyes that seemed to hold the stars and the sea.
It was none other than the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena.
Behind her followed the Beast God Di Tian and the Emerald Swan Bi Ji.
When Gu Yuena saw the ice phoenix soaring high in the sky, she stopped in her tracks.
"It's actually an Ice Phoenix?"
