Upon hearing this, the Two-Faced Ancestral God showed a rare look of surprise.
He never expected that Lu Ming would make such a request.
It's important to understand that every being at the level of a universe master sits in a region and commands respect throughout the world.
Even direct disciples rarely receive personal protection.
"You mean...you want to protect him personally?"
The voice of the two-faced ancestral god carried a hint of disbelief.
"As the Lord of Jinyu, you actually dare to condescend to be a 'guardian' on Zijing Island?"
Lu Ming nodded calmly, his tone indifferent yet firm: "For safety's sake."
These four simple words stirred up a storm in the heart of the two-faced ancestral god.
He gave Lu Ming a deep look, a complex expression flashing in his eyes.
While the master-disciple relationship is important in the universe, at the level of the Lord of the Universe, the disciple is still important.
But it's not that important.
People like Lu Ming, who are willing to set aside their status and personally protect their disciples, are extremely rare.
"You really..."
The two-faced ancestral god sighed softly, his tone tinged with emotion.
“Cherish your disciples.”
At this moment, the two-faced Ancestral God couldn't help but recall Lu Ming's years of cultivation in the Ancestral God Sect.
At that time, although the King of Burning Sky was incredibly talented, he always kept to himself, giving people a sense of aloofness.
I never expected that after becoming the ruler of the universe, he would treat his disciples with such care.
Lu Ming shook his head slightly, a faint smile appearing on his lips: "After all, I only have this one disciple."
These words, spoken casually, sent a jolt through the heart of the two-faced ancestral god.
He has only one disciple!
The two-faced ancestral god couldn't help but think of those powerful beings in the universe, each of whom had a large number of disciples.
Even he himself has guided many successors over the long years.
But it's truly rare for someone like Lu Ming to devote so much energy to a single disciple.
"I understand."
The two-faced ancestral god finally nodded.
"Since you've made up your mind, I'll arrange for you to stay near the palace of the King of the Knife River. However..."
He changed the subject, his tone becoming serious: "You should know that your entry into Purple Thorn Island as the Lord of the Ember Universe will inevitably attract the attention of various forces. This may actually make the King of the Blade River even more conspicuous."
A sharp glint flashed in Lu Ming's eyes: "I know I won't expose myself, but if they dare to make a move, I will let them know what price they will have to pay for messing with my disciple, Lu Ming's disciple."
At that moment, the aura emanating from Lu Ming shook the entire palace.
That was the majesty of the ruler of the universe, the murderous aura honed through countless battles.
The two-faced ancestral god sighed inwardly, for he could sense the determination in Lu Ming's words.
This newly crowned Lord of the Universe is clearly taking this opportunity to declare to the entire universe that his disciple, the Lord of the Ember Universe, is not someone anyone can mess with!
"In that case, let's do as you say."
The two-faced ancestral god finally nodded in agreement.
"I will have a mansion prepared next to the Daohe King's palace, and you can move in at any time."
"Thank you."
Lu Ming nodded slightly, then added.
"I hope this matter will remain undisclosed for the time being. I ask the Ancestral God to keep it a secret until I officially appear."
The two-faced ancestral god nodded knowingly: "Don't worry, I know what to do."
The two smiled at each other, understanding each other tacitly.
At this moment, the dual-faced Ancestral God became even more certain that Lu Ming's entry into Zijing Island this time was not simply to protect Luo Feng.
This person is probably going to take this opportunity to put on a good show on the stage of the Ancestral God Sect.
The audience for this performance will be the pinnacle powers of the entire universe.
The two-faced ancestral god couldn't help but look forward to seeing the interesting expressions on the faces of those forces secretly plotting to assassinate Luo Feng when they discovered that the Lord of Jinyu was stationed on Zijing Island.
After all, under the suppression of the primordial universe's origin, any universe master can at most unleash top-tier sixth-order combat power.
Lu Ming is precisely the best among those at this level.
With him in charge of Zijing Island, unless the strongest person in the universe personally takes action, no one can touch a hair on Luo Feng's head.
But how could the strongest being in the universe risk offending the Ancestral God Sect by personally taking action for a mere World Lord?
"It seems that Zijing Island is about to become lively."
The two-faced ancestral god said meaningfully.
Lu Ming smiled slightly, his eyes gleaming with wisdom: "Isn't it good to make things a little more lively? Let those with ill intentions know that the geniuses of our human race are not to be messed with as they please."
Shortly after Lu Ming quietly settled into Zijing Island in an ancient palace next to Luo Feng's residence, his powerful soul consciousness spread out like invisible ripples, instantly enveloping the entire island.
This investigation immediately turned Lu Ming's eyes cold.
"What a generous gesture."
Lu Ming sneered inwardly.
In his perception, there were actually three Universe Venerables lurking around Luo Feng's residence. Even more shockingly, there were two Universe Overlords, each hiding in a different dimension of the void.
These powerful figures had eyes like venomous snakes, fixed on Luo Feng's residence, ready to launch a thunderous attack at the first opportunity.
It's one thing to be a cosmic venerable, but they even mobilized a cosmic overlord!
It's important to understand that cosmic overlords are top-tier combatants and hold a revered status in any elite race.
Now, to deal with a mere realm lord, they've actually mobilized two cosmic overlords—it's like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
"It seems that my performance back then really frightened these ethnic groups quite a bit."
A cold glint flashed in Lu Ming's eyes.
"They are determined to nip Luo Feng in the bud before he grows up, not giving him even the slightest chance."
This configuration clearly provides two layers of protection.
The Cosmic Venerable is responsible for the open assassinations, while the Cosmic Overlord remains hidden in the shadows, ready to act immediately in case of any unexpected events to ensure absolute success.
To deploy such a force to deal with a mere realm lord is beyond mere concern; it's downright madness, sparing no expense!
This is probably because the Lord of the Universe cannot be resurrected.
Otherwise, they might even dare to send out the Lord of the Universe.
"Demon race, insect race, mechanical race... it seems you've really been pushed to the limit."
Lu Ming muttered to himself, but a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.
However, they probably never dreamed that while they were meticulously setting up their killing trap, a cosmic ruler had already silently arrived at Purple Thorn Island and was sitting right under their noses.
"Unfortunately, you won't have that chance."
Lu Ming's gaze pierced through the palace, as if he could see the assassins hiding in the shadows.
"As long as I am here, no one can lay a finger on my disciple."
His divine sense was like the most sophisticated radar, firmly locking onto the five assassins' every move.
As long as they dare to make a move against Luo Feng, Lu Ming will react immediately.
Chapter 175 Luo Feng Died?
Under the suppression of the primordial origin of the universe, the strongest beings in the universe can only unleash the top-tier combat power of the sixth rank at most.
Even so, dealing with a few Universe Venerables and Universe Overlords would be a piece of cake for Lu Ming.
"I'd like to see who dares to make the first move."
A hint of killing intent flashed in Lu Ming's eyes.
"This is a good opportunity to let all races in the universe know what price they will have to pay for messing with my disciple, Lu Ming."
He didn't intend to alert the enemy now. The fact that these assassins were hiding in the shadows actually gave him an opportunity to establish his authority.
Once they make a move, Lu Ming can use the pretext of protecting his disciples to openly and legitimately kill them all.
At that time, it will not only deter those forces that have ill intentions towards Luo Feng, but also proclaim his majesty as the Lord of the Ember Universe to the entire universe.
In the third year of Lu Ming's secret protection, the unexpected finally happened.
Luo Feng walked out of the mansion with a smile on his face, and with a casual wave of his sleeve, the mansion gate slammed shut.
Without warning, a huge figure suddenly appeared in the void in front of Luo Feng. It was a powerful alien being with a triangular head and covered in blue scales.
His once calm eyes now erupted with terrifying killing intent. Boom! Without hesitation, the alien rushed towards Luo Feng at extreme speed. At the same time, his body instantly emitted an aura that shook the surrounding world, and his aura instantly increased a thousandfold.
The divine body has already burned!
"Ok?"
The other two cosmic venerables, who were hiding in the shadows, were just about to make their move when they discovered that the Azure Scale Venerable had already taken the initiative, and they were slightly taken aback.
However, they reacted extremely quickly, immediately taking a step back and dodging thousands of kilometers away.
"The Azure Scale Venerable actually made the first move?"
One of them thought to himself.
"Let me observe first. I merely teleported to a short distance from the King of the Knife River; it was just a teleportation, I didn't attack at all. The Five-Colored Aurora Lake won't assume I'm trying to kill Luo Feng. Let's see how things go."
Luo Feng had just closed the gates of his mansion when he was instantly attacked by the Azure Scale Venerable, who burned his divine body.
