In the large hall, Mu Chen's eyes were tightly fixed on Datura. His slightly trembling hands revealed the unstable emotions in his heart.
He would never forget how weak and powerless he felt when that old and imposing figure took Luo Li away from his side on that Hokuang Reiwon.
He could never forget the heartbreaking tears and sadness in the girl's eyes when she turned around to leave.
However, he couldn't stop her at all and could only watch as she left.
He knew that this farewell would last for many years.
"Next time, I won't let anyone take you away from me. No one!"
At that time, the youth's firm and unquestionable voice was still clear to this day. It was also from then on that the youth left the ivory tower of Hokuang Reiwon and traveled thousands of miles to the true Boundless World.
After so many years, the young man from before had already grown increasingly tall. The repeated life and death experiences had worn away the tenderness on his young face. However, his pitch-black eyes were still as tough as before.
After a couple of years, the tender young man had transformed time and time again between life and death. Now, the former young eagle finally had the qualification to spread its wings and soar.
Right now, he was no longer the weak youth from before. Even if he stood before Luo Tianshen again, Mu Chen no longer had any fear.
If he brought out all his trump cards, then even a Greater Earth Sovereign would have a change of expression on his face!
The tempering over the years had ultimately allowed the former youth to grow stronger.
He now had the ability to stand in front of the old man who had once made him feel that he was unshakable, and he was now as immovable as a mountain.
Of course.
He knew, his growth.
It was not that he wanted to go against the old man who was also wholeheartedly devoted to Luo Li, but he wanted to use this to tell him that the person his granddaughter had chosen was not an ordinary stone, but a dazzling diamond that had been washed clean!
And for that day, he had worked hard until now.
Mu Chen deeply inhaled a mouthful of air as the tumbling emotions within his heart gradually calmed down.
However, those pitch-black eyes had become increasingly bright and dazzling at this moment.
Datura looked at Mu Chen, who was emitting a sharp aura, and raised her brows. Soon after, she smiled and said, "Looks like that little lover is really important to you."
After knowing Mu Chen for so many years, this was the first time she had seen Mu Chen's emotions fluctuate like this because of a girl.
When Mu Chen heard this, he smiled a little embarrassedly, but his eyes were still fixed on Datura.
When she saw his gaze, Datura stopped teasing him, her small hand stroking her bright and clean chin.
"How much do you know about the Luo God Clan?"
Mu Chen was stunned before he shook his head. In the past, the Luo God Clan was unreachable in his view.
He was incomparably tyrannical. But now, his vision was naturally different from before. According to his estimations.
According to his estimation, the current strength of the Luo God Clan might be comparable to a top-tiered force in the Greatlaw Continent.
"The Luo God Clan has declined by too much.
But at their peak, the Luo God Clan far exceeded your imagination. "Datura said.
"In the ancient times, the Luo God Clan had a peerless beauty.
At the pinnacle of the Luo God Clan, there was a peerless beauty that appeared. In terms of strength and fame, even the Heavenly Emperor would be inferior to her. "
When Mu Chen heard her words, a smear of shock appeared on his face. The Luo God Clan actually had such a figure?
Even the Heavenly Emperor was inferior to her?
Mandala smacked her lips as she exclaimed, "That person was known as Goddess Luo in ancient times. Not only was she ranked amongst the pinnacle powerhouses of the Great Thousand World, but she was also the bella of the Great Thousand World in ancient times. Tsk, tsk. It's said that many Heavenly Sovereigns bowed to her beauty back then."
Mu Chen was dumbfounded. He never expected that the Bella of the Great Thousand World would appear in the Luo God Clan.
"The foundation of the Luo God Clan is extremely ancient. If it wasn't for the Fiend Clans, the Luo God Clan might be able to ascend to the ranks of the Ancient Clans." Datura said in pity.
Mu Chen was speechless. In the Great Thousand World, only the most ancient clans could be known as the Ancient Clans, just like the Ancient Maha Clan and Ancient Buddha Clan. He never expected that the Luo God Clan would have such a foundation.
"Did Goddess Luo fall in the end?" Mu Chen asked.
Datura gently nodded her head with a grave expression. "It's said that Goddess Luo obstructed two Sky Monarchs of the Fiend Clans by herself. Furthermore, those two Sky Monarchs were ranked eighth and ninth respectively."
Mu Chen squinted his eyes. According to the classification of the Fiend Clans, the two Sky Monarchs should be ranked 8th and 9th amongst the Fiend Clans. They were definitely extraordinary existences.
After all, he had witnessed how powerful the Nine-Corpse Sky Monarch was back in the Ancient Haven Palace, so he knew how terrifying those Sky Monarchs were.
However, Goddess Luo actually fought two of them by herself. What kind of courage and danger was that?
"Although Goddess Luo fell in that battle, one of the Sky Monarchs died and the other was injured."
Datura sighed. Her tone was filled with admiration for the Bella of the Great Thousand World.
Mu Chen was also shocked by this achievement. After all, the Heavenly Emperor only managed to seal the Nine-Corpse Sky Monarch, while Goddess Luo managed to kill one and injure the other. That meant that Datura wasn't lying when she said that Goddess Luo's fame and strength surpassed the Heavenly Emperor.
"When Goddess Luo fell, she turned into a massive river, known as the Luo River. The Luo God Clan guards this river, and it's rumored that Goddess Luo left behind an inheritance, the Luo God Celestial Body."
"The Luo God Celestial Body that's ranked 11th on the Sovereign Celestial Body Ranking?!"
Mu Chen's countenance finally changed. He never expected that such a rare and mysterious Sovereign Celestial Body would be in the hands of the Luo God Clan!
Compared to the Luo God Celestial Body, even his Immortal Golden Body wouldn't have any advantage.
At this moment, he realised that he had underestimated the foundation of the Luo God Clan.
"But …" As Datura spoke, she shook her head and continued, "After so many years, no one in the Luo God Clan managed to cultivate the Luo God Celestial Body. As for the inheritance left behind by Goddess Luo, no one managed to obtain it. This is also the reason why the Luo God Clan has declined to this point."
Mu Chen was speechless. It looked like it wasn't easy to cultivate the Luo God Celestial Body. It was no wonder why he hadn't heard of anyone cultivating the Luo God Celestial Body.
"It's natural for others to covet it with treasures in their possession."
Datura continued, "In the Lesser West Heaven Realm, there are four God Clans, the Luo God Clan, Blood God Clan, Mighty God Clan, and Bone God Clan. Although the Luo God Clan has declined in the past, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Thus, they can be considered as the leader of the four clans."
"But along with the rise of the other three clans, the Luo God Clan's prestige has also declined. Right now, the strongest force in the Lesser West Heaven Realm has been replaced by the Blood God Clan."
"The enmity between the Blood God Clan and the Luo God Clan is extremely great. Both parties have been in conflict for hundreds and thousands of years. Therefore, the Blood God Clan has been pressuring the Luo God Clan over the years, causing the Luo God Clan to be in an extremely pathetic state."
"The Luo God Clan has also failed to live up to expectations. Under such a crisis, the Luo God Clan is in a precarious position."
As she spoke, Datura smiled as she looked at Mu Chen. "But that lover of yours does have some ability. Ever since she returned, she has relied on her own strength to stabilize the clan and allowed the Luo God Clan to survive the Blood God Clan's pursuit."
When Mu Chen heard her words, there wasn't any joy in his heart. On the contrary, he couldn't help clenching his fists in his sleeves with a cold expression. That's because, even if he wasn't by Luo Li's side, he could sense how much grievance that girl had endured in order to stabilize the unstable situation in the clan.
"How is she now?
You said that her situation isn't good? "Mu Chen took a deep breath and asked.
Datura's face turned grave as she gently nodded her head. "According to the information that I've received, Luo Tianshen is planning to hold the Luo God Ceremony for her and try to open the inheritance."
"If Luo Li can really obtain the Luo Shen's inheritance and refine the Luo Shen Celestial Body, she will probably be another Luo Shen in the future with her talent. This isn't something that the other three clans of the Lesser West Heaven Realm would like to see. So I'm afraid that this Luo God Ceremony will be unavoidable."
"Furthermore, I've heard that there are many troubles within the Luo God Clan. Not everyone is supporting that lover of yours. After all, her direct line of descent is rather weak. If anything happens to Luo Tianshen …"
"I'm afraid that the Luo God Ceremony this time won't be easy …"
Huff.
A cold light flickered in Mu Chen's eyes before he took a deep breath to suppress the emotions in his heart and asked, "When will the Luo God Ceremony begin?"
"A month from now."
Looking at Datura, Mu Chen asked, "Can I use the power of the Mu Abode?"
There were too many things involved in the Luo God Ceremony, so Fang Yun would definitely gather. Even if he had stepped into the Earth Sovereign Realm, it wouldn't be easy for him to do it alone.
Datura smiled and stood up.
"You're now the ruler of the Mu Abode, what do you think?"
Mu Chen said softly, "Thank you."
He naturally knew that Mandala had given up on the Northern Region Alliance and established the Mu Abode for him because of him.
Datura stretched herself, but the words that came out of her mouth were domineering.
"Who asked you to be my Junior Brother? She's our sister-in-law. If anyone dares to bully her, we'll beat him to death!"
Mu Chen grinned as an ominous glint shot out from his pitch-black eyes.
Luo Li, wait for me!
