Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

ODDLY, THE ENTIRE hall inside the Sacred Vihara was overcome with silence.

“So, how about it?” Zhang Wei asked after explaining himself to City Lord Shen Zui. “Shen Zui, think about it. You don’t like war, but isn’t this what you want? To purify and enlighten the whole realm and its people, that this should be something everyone should pursue.”

Shen Zui pondered for a moment. “You’re right, but purging the souls of these people’s innocent lives. It’s not quite worth it. I’d rather stay here in my Sacred Vihara.”

Zhang Wei shook his head in response. “You don’t understand me at all. Shen Zui, come to the think of it, won’t you be saving the souls of these people when we purge them? These innocent lives need salvation. Living in this world as if you’re living in a prison for being weak is just the same as not living at all.

“Look around you. The whole world, including ordinary people, has always been bullied by those who are strong. The only way to save them is to purge all of their souls and get the chance to be reincarnated in their next lives.

“Don’t you cultivate for the good of others? During this time, should you not help them instead? Shen Zui, in this world, for people like them, living is like pretending to be alive when they’re not. People like them would think they’d better die rather than suffer at the hands of others.

“People like them could not seek justice for the death of their loved ones. People like them could only weep during the night. People like them could only hide under their pillows.

“Listen to their cries, Shen Zui. They are your people. It’s your duty to save them.”_.

This time, Shen Zui was standing by the window. Outside, he saw a maid with a basket hanging on her wrist getting killed for not accepting a man’s offer for her to become an object to satisfy his sexual desires.

Alas, the little brother of the maid was too late. When he arrived, she was already dead.

“Can’t you see that? That little boy right there will soon suffer in this cruel world, having seen the darkness in it. He will suffer…”

“Enough,” Shen Zui cut him off. “You two may go now. Let me think of it.” Shen Zui threw a golden token at Zhang Wei. “When that golden token releases a slight glimmer, it is equivalent to me agreeing to your plan. By then, you can tell me what your plan is.”

“Alright,” Zhang Wei said as he dragged the old man with him out of the Sacred Vihara.

Seeing their retreating backs while flying on a sword, City Lord Shen Zui only sighed and took a look again at where that maid was killed. No one knew his thoughts.

A little while later, he shook his head and went back to meditate.

In the Valley of Gods.

Yang Lujia was left helpless. After the self-destruction of Zhao Dilao, he realized another thing. Although he was already strong, not everyone could be held within his grasp.

Like what just happened.

Lin Diyu forcefully ascended.

Zhao Dilao was only a fucking clone.

And now, he was left alone like a headless fly wandering around this valley, losing his original purpose for coming here. He wasn’t even able to get an answer from Zhao Dilao about the location of the latter’s race.

He wanted the exact coordinates, but Zhao Dilao only told him that the Echinemon Race was a race that was on a constant move.

In other terms, they were akin to bees who liked to fly about and unknowingly brought up plants with pollens falling off of them.

“Lin Diyu, I will also go to that higher realm later or sooner. Just you wait. As for whoever forcefully made you ascend, he better take care of you, lest I kill him mercilessly.”

Stepping out of Saint Blood’s Tomb, he pondered.

As though realizing something, his eyes turned hot. “Long Guang! Feng Huang! Brownie! Metallie! Fortuniel, are they safe for now?”

“Host needs to figure it out by himself. Unless Fortuniel issues a mission, Fortuniel cannot or may not be able to answer your questions.”

He gritted through his teeth. As expected, he could not rely on the system so much from then on. It felt like Fortuniel, who had gained sentience was quite odd. Even this most secret he had with him that no one knew, even his grandfather, could not be fully trusted.

In fact, he himself knew that he had relied on the same way too much that his advance could be considered too advanced like a freak of the Dao.

With it, his power exploded. It surged in the entire Valley of Gods.

Even though he had the token with him, going out was not allowed unless it reached the designated time he should go out. It went the same with others.

Unless you ascended like Lin Diyu, you wouldn’t be able to get out of this place even if you had the token. If you could wait for six months, however, the condition to be able to go out would be met.

As his power rolled out, the entire Valley of Gods trembled. An invisible and boundless force unfurled as spatial cracks began to form.

“What’s happening? Why is the ground suddenly trembling? Is there some monster residing beneath the Valley of Gods?!” a disciple from the Southern Territory exclaimed, still fighting for the inheritance left by a Saint.

“Fortuniel, how much power did I choose to release just now?” Yang Lujia subconsciously asked. “It seems powerful.”

“Host, if you compare your full power to your five fingers on one hand, this is only at least two centimeters of your pinky finger.”

“What the fuck? Am I really that powerful?” Yang Lujia was in a daze for a while and soon shook his head. “No, I must get out of here. Although I have a trace of the Echinemon’s aura with me, I still can’t find the location of this Echinemon Race. I have to get back to their side sooner! To hell with hit!”

At this moment, a man whose eyes were initially closed trembled. With his white beard swaying along with the pressure he was emitting, he stood and looked in the direction where Yang Lujia released a ‘bit’ of his power.

“Unbelievable… master has already grown to such an extent…”

A month ago…

In the Inn where the trio was staying along with Metallie, they were all rolling on the floor. Well, except for Long Guang who was playing with a toy robot in his hand.

Brownie was at the end of its wits and stopped rolling on the floor. “This prince is so fucking bored!”

Feng Huang also stopped looking at her cute future senior brother playing with a toy robot. She then stared at Brownie and chased him nonstop. On the other hand, Metallie was crunching with the metals Yang Lujia gave him.

What a sight to behold.

“Stop! Stop! This prince has already had enough of you! Pleasee! Fuck!!!” Brownie was caught in his tail.

Hastily using his powers to get rid of the little girl’s grip, he unknowingly used his strength and arrived outside the inn.

“What the hell? How the fuck can this prince get back inside now?”
