I'm in the world of cultivation, and I get a system for becoming a wealthy urban tycoon?

Lu Yang looked at Leo and said casually, "Swear an oath. My name is Lu Yang."

As soon as Lu Yang finished speaking, Li Ao noticed that the invisible force that had been binding his mouth and consciousness had quietly loosened.

He swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing dryly.

He dared not hesitate for even a moment.

This young master has already given him a chance to live.

He must seize this opportunity!

He took a deep breath, raised his right hand, and brought his index and middle fingers together towards the sky.

An unprecedented solemnity appeared on that wrinkled face, a reverence for the Way of Heaven.

"Heaven above, the Great Dao as witness! Today, Li Ao, with his own soul as guidance and his three souls and seven spirits as proof, sincerely kowtows to Heaven and Earth and the Great Dao, and makes this oath of master and servant! From this day forward, I willingly serve Lu Yang as my master, and with this body and soul, I will forever be his servant, without any disloyalty! If I break this oath, may my soul be annihilated between Heaven and Earth, never to enter the cycle of reincarnation, never to fall into the Netherworld, and never to be redeemed again!"

As the last word fell, the surrounding air suddenly underwent a subtle change that was invisible to the naked eye.

An invisible and intangible aura of the Great Dao descended from the depths of the sky and silently landed on Leo.

That is the mark of the establishment of the Great Oath of Heaven!

Heaven and earth bear witness, the Great Way is the proof; if there is any breach of this oath, all the punishments stipulated in this oath will be carried out in full!

Lu Yang nodded slightly, then glanced at Wang Da.

Wang Da raised his right hand, and a gentle, flowing flame flowed across his hand.

He extended his five fingers and gently grabbed Leo.

The next moment, Leo's body suddenly arched upwards.

His face turned deathly pale, and he clenched his teeth, but he still couldn't suppress the muffled groan in his throat.

The cold sweat that had just dried on his forehead surged out again, dripping down his chin onto the spiritwood deck and leaving several dark, damp stains.

flame!

Flames erupted simultaneously from the depths of his soul, the core of his consciousness, every inch of his physical meridians, and even the surface of the golden core in his dantian.

The fire threads, like countless tiny chains, sealed, wrapped, and branded his entire existence layer by layer.

A moment later, wisps of flame emerged from Leo's body.

They converged, rotated, and compressed in the air, eventually condensing into a flame seal no bigger than a thumb.

The Dao Seal is entirely made of red gold, with flowing patterns on its surface that emit a warm yet gentle glow.

With a wave of his hand, the Dao Seal floated into his palm.

He turned to look at Lu Yang, his tone calm: "Young Master, that's enough."

Lu Yang nodded.

Wang Da held the Flame Dao Seal and gently pushed it toward Lu Yang.

The Dao Seal silently disappeared into Lu Yang's brow the instant it touched him, and then appeared deep within his sea of ​​consciousness.

Instantly, Lu Yang was able to clearly perceive everything about Li Ao through this Dao Seal.

His heart rate, the flow of his spiritual energy, the speed at which the golden core in his dantian rotated, and even the faint sense of relief he felt deep inside at that moment, as if he had survived a calamity.

As long as Lu Yang has a thought, this Flame Dao Seal will instantly detonate everything inside Li Ao's body, burning him completely from his soul to his physical body.

Lu Yang was still a little uneasy about just a grand oath to Heaven.

After all, although breaking the oath would mean certain death for Leo.

However, if he were willing to suffer utter ruin to do something detrimental to Lu Yang, he might be able to throw him into a panic.

Now that Lu Yang had the enslavement mark personally condensed by Wang Da, a True Monarch at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, using the laws of fire, he was completely at ease.

With Wang Da's profound understanding of the laws of fire, combined with the foundation of a max-level, low-grade Heavenly Rank cultivation technique, this enslavement mark has completely locked up Leo's soul, body, and spiritual energy.

Leo had no chance to resist!

With a slight thought, Lu Yang released the suppression on Li Ao.

Leo immediately felt the omnipresent flames within him dissipate.

His physical body was back under his control, the spiritual energy in his meridians began to flow freely, and his sea of ​​consciousness regained its clarity.

He stood there, feeling as if he had just walked through the gates of hell.

He knew very well that from this moment on, his life was completely in the hands of this young master Lu.

Of course, Leo never even considered resisting.

He simply couldn't possibly resist an existence of that level.

He knelt on one knee, his voice filled with the relief of surviving a close call: "Leo greets His Majesty!"

Lu Yang waved his hand casually: "Just call me Young Master, like Wang Da and the others."

Upon hearing this, Leo was taken aback, and a hint of surprise even rose in his heart.

Who is Wang Da?!

Wang Da Ke was that Nascent Soul stage True Monarch just now!

I didn't even have the slightest power to resist him!

With my own strength, what merit do I possess to be called "Young Master" like this person?

If I round up or down, wouldn't I be able to rival the True Lord?

His lips twitched, but his expression remained respectful as he quickly corrected himself, "Greetings, Young Master!"

Lu Yang nodded: "Get up."

Leo stood up in response, quickly walked behind Wang Da and the others, and stood properly without daring to overstep his bounds.

He could clearly sense that none of the guardians here were people he could defeat.

Each and every one of them is ridiculously strong!

Not to mention Wang Da, that Nascent Soul True Monarch level figure.

In the surrounding sky, all the cultivators watching this scene showed deep awe on their faces.

A genuine Golden Core cultivator was actually taken in as a servant by this Young Master Lu!

It was described lightly and calmly.

It's as if he just casually picked up a tool that was fairly handy!

This is a True Person at the Golden Core stage!

Throughout Qin Province, those at the Golden Core stage are considered to be among the highest ranks.

In an ordinary Golden Core family, a Golden Core ancestor is the pillar of the entire clan!

Among the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect disciples present, there are probably very few who can break through to the Golden Core stage!

For a moment, their feelings were quite complicated.

Lu Yang ignored what others thought and looked at Li Feng.

Li Feng's face paled even more as he was swept by that gaze.

He stood alone in the air, surrounded by swirling clouds and complex gazes from all directions.

He gritted his teeth, respectfully cupped his hands, and said, "Young Master Lu... I am also willing to swear a great oath to Heaven and become your servant."

A subtle, strange feeling arose in Lu Yang's heart.

No... what class are you?

Do you want to be my servant?

If Li Ao hadn't been at the Golden Core stage, Lu Yang definitely wouldn't have accepted him.

Li Feng is only at the Foundation Establishment stage, so he's basically useless to Lu Yang.

and……

To be honest, Lu Yang didn't think Li Feng had done anything wrong. He was just unlucky to have run into such a cute little guy like Li Yao.

In addition, Li Feng is also a disciple of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, and I will have to cultivate in the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect in the future. Taking a Golden Rainbow Sword Sect inner disciple as a servant would not look good for the sect.

Lu Yang chuckled and shook his head: "No need."

Li Feng's expression suddenly froze, and the last trace of color drained from his face.

He swallowed hard, his lips twitching into a bitter smile.

Sure enough, I am just a Foundation Establishment cultivator, how could I possibly have the same treatment as the ancestor?

I was being too naive.

He lowered his eyes, his voice hoarse: "I understand... I'll kill myself now..."

Lu Yang was taken aback and quickly said, "Hey, wait! When did I tell you to kill yourself?"

Li Feng looked at Lu Yang with some confusion: "Young Master Lu, what do you mean by this...?"

Lu Yang spoke gently, "When I met with Uncle Li last time, aside from Li Yao, there wasn't anything unpleasant. Since Uncle Li has apologized and Li Yao has been eliminated, let's just let this matter rest."

Li Feng and Li Ao were both startled.

Li Feng, in particular, felt very insecure because he hadn't become Lu Yang's servant.

He stared wide-eyed in disbelief, cautiously looking at Lu Yang, and said, "You...you mean...you won't pursue...my mistake anymore?"

Lu Yang nodded and chuckled, "Uncle Li, there's no need to be so nervous. I'm not some evil or demonic cultivator."

Li Feng's eyes reddened, and he almost cried.

His life was saved!

He repeatedly clasped his hands in mid-air, each bow deeper than the last, his voice trembling with barely suppressed gratitude: "Thank you, Young Master Lu! Thank you, Young Master Lu!"

Then, as if remembering something, he glanced cautiously at Lu Yang and asked, "Young Master Lu, what about the Li family...?"

Lu Yang understood Li Feng's meaning, his gaze calm as he looked at Li Feng: "Let it go this time, but I don't want it to happen again."

The heavy weight that had been hanging over Li Feng's chest for so long finally came to a crashing halt.

He nodded repeatedly: "Young Master Lu, rest assured! The Li family will definitely keep its clansmen in check from now on! No more petty thieves will dare to displease you!"

Leo, equally unable to hide his excitement, said, "Thank you for your mercy, young master!"

Although Leo is now Lu Yang's servant, his mindset has not changed.

He was still a Golden Core cultivator of the Li family, and he still cared about the bloodline and foundation that the Li family had accumulated over hundreds of years. Naturally, he did not want the Li family to be wiped out.

Hearing that Lu Yang had so easily spared the Li family, Leo was truly grateful!

After all, few people present knew better than him just how strong this young master's protector was.

If the young master so desires, the Li family will have no chance of escaping!

The fact that the young master has let the Li family go is already an act of immense mercy.

Lu Yang thought for a moment and then tossed the storage bag containing the corpses of the Li family members back to Li Feng.

His voice was calm and composed: "The deceased are gone, let's leave it at that. These people were members of the Li family after all, so you can bury them yourselves."

Upon hearing this, Li Feng trembled.

The bag still carried the chill of the high-altitude wind, yet the fabric felt scorching hot, almost burning his hand.

His blood relatives, his clansmen, his brothers... are all contained within.

He originally thought that these people wouldn't even be qualified to be buried in peace.

But now, Young Master Lu has returned them all to him.

Li Feng had lived for several decades and his cultivation had reached the Foundation Establishment stage. He considered himself not someone who easily fell in love.

But at this moment, his nose and eyes were sore, and he had to bite his lip hard to barely suppress the surging emotions.

He took a deep breath, bent down deeply, and held the storage bag in both hands, saying in a hoarse voice, "Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Lu!"

Lu Yang looked at the figure bent to its limit in mid-air, remained silent for a moment, and then waved his hand.

Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the clouds, casting a pale golden outline on his profile.

His tone remained calm and unhurried: "Alright, let's go back."

"Yes! Li Feng takes his leave!"

Li Feng bowed deeply again.

He then turned around, transformed into a streak of light, and flew towards the market.

After flying a long distance away, he suddenly raised his hand and wiped the corner of his eye.

The wind was strong, and the water dried up in no time.
