Swallowing the Stars: Ten Thousand Times Return for Taking on Disciples

Chapter 222 The Excited King of Qianwu Kingdom
In fact, the Seventh Prince has been very low-key.

As the only son of the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom, he usually books the entire restaurant whenever he goes out to eat.

He even invited a professional chef to his home to cook for him personally.

This time, they were simply asking the guests on the 18th floor to dine on another floor. This was only because of the background of Baiweilou Restaurant.

The guests on the eighteenth floor naturally noticed them when a group of people rushed in.

Hearing that the Seventh Prince had arrived and wanted to book the entire floor, everyone was somewhat dissatisfied, but they still got up to change to another floor.

Although most of them were realm lords or had certain status and position, compared to the Seventh Prince, it was like the difference between a firefly and a star.

However, one person did not move.

Instead of moving, he looked in the direction of the Seventh Prince and said, "It's just a meal, is it necessary to make such a fuss? Does the food taste better after clearing the place out? Your Highness, Seventh Prince?"

"you!"

The lackey beside the Seventh Prince was furious; he never expected that someone would disregard the Seventh Prince's authority.

Just as he was about to reprimand the ungrateful fellow and teach him a lesson, a slap landed on the back of his head.

For a moment, he felt dizzy.

“Lu Qingshan…”

The seventh prince's eyes lit up.

"I didn't expect the Seventh Prince to recognize me."

Lu Qingshan poured himself a glass of wine.

"I know you, of course I know you, you are..." He looked at his lackey and said, "Get lost, and don't show your face in front of me again, or you'll die a horrible death."

The lackey was startled. Seeing the Seventh Prince's murderous gaze, he dared not speak and scrambled away from the eighteenth floor.

The Seventh Prince then stopped the guests who wanted to leave, saying, "I'm sorry, it was that ungrateful fellow who took it upon himself to disturb everyone's meal. All your expenses today will be charged to me. Please go back and have your meal."

The Seventh Prince then beckoned to the waiters, who served each table a top-quality wine worth one Hunyuan as an apology...

One by one, the diners who were about to leave returned to their original positions under the Seventh Prince's gaze.

They stared in shock at the figure sitting by the window.

They certainly didn't believe the Seventh Prince's nonsense. What could make the Seventh Prince change like this must be someone with an even more astonishing identity.

Even more astonishing than the Seventh Prince's identity is...

Everyone was secretly speculating.

They seem to have come into contact with a remarkable being today.

The Seventh Prince instructed his entourage to find their own seats, and then sat down opposite Lu Qingshan.

He raised his hand to create a soundproof barrier before speaking, "Lu Qingshan... I've often heard your name before, but this is the first time we've met. Weren't you in the Primal Secret Realm?"

"Hehe, Seventh Prince, you're quite well-informed... I just returned from training in the outer battlefield. I came back to visit my teacher, and when I passed through Qianwu City, I saw my disciple's Baiwei Restaurant, so I came over to try it out. It's quite a coincidence that I ran into Seventh Prince."

"Yes, what a coincidence! It means we're destined to be together."

The Seventh Prince was an easygoing person. He picked up his wine glass and poured himself a drink, but he was secretly surprised.

Having returned from his training in the outer battlefield, as an immortal god, he naturally knew what the outer battlefield was. Even if he had a hundred lives, he wouldn't dare to go there.

Lu Qingshan has returned from the battlefield outside the domain, so his strength must be terrifying. He has heard that the world lords of the Primordial Secret Realm are comparable to Marquis Immortals. Although he is an Immortal Military Lord, his strength is probably not enough compared to them.

Moreover, thinking of the reminders from the Eighteen Divine Generals, his enthusiasm grew even stronger.

"Brother Qingshan... come, let me toast you first."

"Seventh Prince, please."

The Seventh Prince was, after all, the only son of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler, so Lu Qingshan still gave him some face.

As an immortal god, it's quite normal to have mental issues after countless years of stagnant power...

The human race's cosmic venerables value their reputation more than their own lives.

Moreover, the Seventh Prince is a typical spoiled brat.

"Brother Qingshan, I'm quite interested in the battlefields beyond the borders. Could you tell me more about them?"

The seventh prince asked.

"Hehe, alright." Lu Qingshan drank his wine while talking about things from the battlefields beyond the borders, which made the Seventh Prince's expression change repeatedly.

The royal family of the demon race.

Disciple of the Machine Race Venerable.

The Zerg Queen.

Countless powerful figures of equal or even greater status than him perished one by one on that meat grinder-like battlefield outside the realm. Just the number of demon royals and kings who died at Lu Qingshan's hands was countless, which made the Seventh Prince break out in a cold sweat.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Lu Qingshan held a hint of awe.

"Seventh Prince...you are lucky to have a king as your father to protect you from the wind and rain, allowing you to enjoy life in peace for countless years. Do you know why your teacher is disappointed in you?"

"It's not because your abilities haven't improved, but because you lack a sense of responsibility."

"You may have noble blood, but you are also a member of the human race. If you don't even like your own race, how can you expect others to like you?"

"I don't expect you to be diligent in your duties and love the people. As long as you can avoid associating with those corrupt officials and scoundrels, avoid harming your own people, and try to do some good deeds, I believe your teacher will see the changes in you."

……

After finishing the pot of fine wine, Lu Qingshan got up and left.

The seventh prince, who remained where he was, had a slight change in expression.

"Hmph, so this is Lu Qingshan. I don't know how many years older I am than you, yet you dare to lecture me."

“Those people…” the Seventh Prince sighed, “If it weren’t for those people, who could bring me happiness?”

The Seventh Prince poured himself a drink, and after a long while, he decided to accept Lu Qingshan's suggestion.

Delete all the names of those individuals from the virtual universe.

…… ……

We left Baiweilou.

Lu Qingshan was teleported directly into the Qianwu Secret Realm through the fixed passage of the Qianwu Dojo.

He has just arrived on Fenglei Island.

The three immortal deities of the Qianwu Secret Realm appeared together.

"Your Highness Qingshan."

Marquis Mingguang exclaimed in surprise.

They sensed a powerful energy fluctuation entering Fenglei Island, which prompted them to come and investigate, only to find it was Lu Qingshan.

"Marquis Mingguang".

Lu Qingshan raised his hand.

"Your Highness Qingshan, you are too kind."

Marquis Mingguang landed beside Lu Qingshan and bowed slightly: "Your Highness, you can just call me by my name. Mingguang greets Your Highness Qingshan."

"Greetings, Your Highness Qingshan."

Marquis Yinyue and Marquis Canghai followed suit and bowed.

After all, all three of them were immortals, with Marquis Mingguang as their leader.

"Please don't be so polite, everyone."

Lu Qingshan smiled faintly and accepted the generous gift from the three immortals. The improvement in his strength brought about a change in his mindset.

The three immortal gods who were once powerful in the Qianwu Secret Realm are now completely insignificant in Lu Qingshan's eyes.

Even without using the powerful Time Overlord Armor, neither the Marquis of Canghai nor the Marquis of Yinyue were his match. If he were to use this powerful armor, even the Marquis of Mingguang, a peak Marquis, would not be able to withstand a single blow from him.

"I came back this time specifically to visit my teacher. I will pay my respects to my teacher first, and then we can chat with everyone later."

Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Of course!" Marquis Mingguang smiled broadly. "When His Highness Qingshan entered the Qianwu Secret Realm, the King probably already knew. Let's go and pay our respects to the King first."

"We'll talk about it later."

Lu Qingshan vanished from everyone's sight in a flash, even surprising the Marquis of Canghai, who was well-versed in the fundamental laws of space.

In just ten thousand years, Lu Qingshan's understanding of the fundamental laws of space has far surpassed his.

Only Marquis Mingguang remained expressionless, as if he had expected this all along.

After Lu Qingshan left, the three of them communicated telepathically.

"Lord Mingguang, just now..."

"Inquired by Marquis Silver Moon."

"Do you two think I've been too polite, even a little subservient, to His Highness Lu Qingshan?" Marquis Mingguang didn't feel ashamed at all.

"This..." The two remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.

Marquis Mingguang explained, "I can tell you two the reason, but please don't tell anyone else."

After offering a cautious reminder, Marquis Mingguang said, "You know that my teacher is a peak-level King-level expert and a member of the Human Alliance, Hongmeng."

Perhaps the other immortals were unaware of the Hong Alliance, but as confidants of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler, the three of them had all heard of the name and knew that it was a terrifying alliance where only those who were granted the title of king could become official members, and even the Marquis of Mingguang was not qualified to join it.

"My teacher told me not long ago that the Hongmeng has decided to invite His Highness Lu Qingshan to become a formal member of the Hongmeng, and my teacher... King Huankong... is one of the members of this invitation group. Now you know why."

……

Both Marquis Canghai and Marquis Yinyue showed expressions of shock.

Even the Marquis of Mingguang, a peak-level marquis, could not join this organization, yet they invited His Highness Lu Qingshan to join.

Doesn't this mean.

In just ten thousand years, His Highness Lu Qingshan has already acquired the strength to be granted the title of King?

"This is incredible."

For the first time, the usually calm and composed eyes of Marquis Yinyue revealed an expression of disbelief.

“I find it hard to believe. You know, ten thousand years ago, when I first learned of Lu Qingshan’s name from my disciple Selis, he was just a domain lord.”

Marquis Canghai took a deep breath.

At this moment, they had no more doubts. If it were them, they would probably have been even more respectful than Marquis Mingguang.

Marquis Mingguang spoke solemnly: "Your Highness Qingshan is not only of a much higher status than us, but also stronger. We must treat Your Highness with utmost respect."

"Understood," Marquis Canghai and Marquis Yinyue said in unison.

……

Lu Qingshan was naturally unaware of the news from this side, as he had already landed outside a massive palace.

"Your Highness, the King is already inside waiting for you."

The eighteen divine generals quickly bowed.

"Ah."

Lu Qingshan returned the greeting with a raised hand before stepping into the magnificent hall.

Looking at the imposing figure in a long red robe standing in the main hall, Lu Qingshan respectfully bowed.

"Teacher, the disciple is back."

"Haha, Qingshan, you haven't disappointed your master... Quickly tell your master, how did you kill that alien king-level expert?"

The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom stepped to Lu Qingshan's side, his joy barely concealed.
