Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

YANG LUJIA COULD not find a valid reason why the system limited its own abilities. However, he surmised that it might be because he was already too strong to rely on them. After all, even Fortuniel, the system itself, could not be something absolute in the first place.

This might be a magical world but it didn't mean absolutes exist in this place.

[New Mission: Recruit and acknowledge the Holy Light Palace's SS-Class Genius. The reward will be issued upon acknowledgment from both parties.]

[Target's Information: The SS-Class Genius, Sheng Ao, is a twenty-year-old prodigy, a Holy Son of the Holy Light Palace. He once went to Da Sishen and executed a lot of the devils that were residing there. After that forceful descent, the Saint Emperor of the Holy Light Palace called him back for another mission he was tasked to do. It was a mission to eliminate another lingering faction of fiends to the southwest of Da Shikong. While he was trying to eliminate the whole faction, he was caught up in a strange affair. Although he was a monk and vowed not to taint himself with otherworldly desires like lust, he was still overcome by the beauty of the faction leader's daughter. When the Dragon Emperor Palace reported what happened to a Holy Son of the Holy Light Palace to their Saint Emperor, the entire place instantly erupted in rumors. Due to his destroyed reputation, he was thrashed and condemned by the Holy Light Palace even though he pleaded for himself that he did not touch any part of the woman's body and was only drugged. When their Saint Emperor heard of this, he instantly sent him to the Second Region of the Three Regions.]

[Additional Information: When you go to the Holy Light Palace, do not kill as possible as you can.]

[Sub-Mission: Learn about the truth and prove his innocence to the entire Holy Light Palace.]

[Sub-Mission: Sheng Ao's life is hanging on a thread. Save him by using the Nine-Lead Nirvana Herb.]

[Sub-Mission: Kill the Child of Pan Gu, Sheng Ao! Reward: System Upgrade, A System New Function Option]

[Ding! Main Mission Triggered: Insufficient System Level! Needs Upgrade!]

Yang Lujia was dumbfounded by the bombardment of notifications in front of him from Fortuniel, but he disregarded them.

Fortuniel's voice was still child-like, but it was obvious that he had grown. However, that was not his focus at the moment. He was still looking at the new mission of accepting another disciple.

He wasn't even able to finish Feng Huang's problem and now he was given another problem. But he had to bear with it. Also, he wanted to know who this Sheng Ao was. He was kind of curious about the kid who slept with a woman.

Moreover, he was sent to the Second Region. He would be stupid not to notice the relevance of the information he acquired from the fatty before, specifically regarding with the Second Region.

Fatty said that the Second Region was flooded with churches. In other words, they must have the Holy Light Palace as their backing. He could also tell that a Saint Emperor must be the strongest cultivator in Da Shikong. That wasn't surprising at all. Just like how they called God Kings and God Emperors, it would be normal to call them Saint Kings and Saint Emperors as well. The only mystery was if there was any realm that was lower than the latter but higher than the former.

However, that would be left for later. "Fortuniel, how long do you think that kid, Sheng Ao, could last?"

"Host, he can last only until a year."

"Then, I guess there's still plenty of time. After all, I have to finish what I started here. It would be boring of a life to leave here just like that, right? Haha!"

Fortuniel did not reply. Instead, the boy appeared in front of Yang Lujia, floating midair. "Hello, host," the boy greeted.

Yang Lujia smiled at him and said, "You've grown up. Have you recalled anything from your memories?"

"Unfortunately, I haven't." The boy shook his head. "However, I am only coming out because I want to feel some fresh air."

"You're able to act like a human now?" Yang Lujia pretended to be surprised. He knew that the boy would definitely grow and even if it was only an inch, he would still recognize it. No matter, he kept his vigilance. If things went for the worst, he would be able to somehow evade it. Hopefully.

"It seems so," Fortuniel replied and happily went back to Yang Lujia's body.

"It still feels weird that someone is living inside my body," he voiced out which made Fortuniel speechless. "Nonetheless, you're just a system. Moreover, you are a boy. If you were a girl, I would really be slightly embarrassed."

Although he said that, no one knew whether he was really embarrassed or it was due to him drinking wine. Soon enough, he burped.

Strolling within the main sect grounds, he found pretty decent disciples who he could give his guidance to. But he did not have much of that time to do it. It would only be a hassle. He was only here to search if there was something wrong with any of the disciples. Given the spy that was involved in the conversation between the father and son of the Blue Scale Sect, he knew that there must be more than just one spy in the sect.

While doing so, one disciple particularly attracted his attraction. It was a young man who was aiming his saber from side to side shabbily.

Appearing beside the young man with a wine in his hand, the former was frightened that he dropped his saber and his butt hit the ground before he could even realize it.

Yang Lujia stilled his gaze on the young guy who could not even utter a word. "I feel like something's weird about him. It's like something's pulling me to him," he thought.

"W-Who are y-you?" The young guy looked so petrified as if he had seen a monster.

Because in his sight, Yang Lujia wasn't someone normal as others would see him. He could see through the terrifying treasures Yang Lujia was wearing. From his robe to his bracelet, to the gourd he was holding, and to the necklace around his neck. All of them were treasures to his eyes.

"W-Why do y-you have s-so many tre… treasures?" The young man pointed at Yang Lujia. "Your robe… your gourd…"

"Oh? You can actually recognize them?" Yang Lujia said in a light voice, but it was like a big blow to the young man.

Yang Lujia was dumbfounded, though. He had always covered his robe and the other treasures of his body with a protective layer that could disguise them as normal things, like ordinary things to wear of a mortal.

And with his strength, no one should be able to see through him or his treasures.
