Chapter 994: Chapter 975: Pretending to be the God's Child? Frantically Gathering Treasures for Luo Yu!_3
Liu Shengji forced a smile, "Elder Luo, your grandson isn't even born yet, and you've already paved the way for him, even taking care of finding a wife in advance."
Luo Tiance kept a straight face.
"Whatever others have, my grandson must also have."
"Whatever others don't have, my grandson will definitely have."
The eight of them felt a headache coming on, as they had already realized that Luo Tiance was thoroughly obsessed with his grandson.
With gritted teeth and stomping feet, they said, "Fine, we agree to your request."
Luo Tiance nodded.
"But..." Zhu Wushi said with a sneer, "Elder Luo, after taking such a great advantage, can't you crack a smile?"
"No, I think my grandson is at a disadvantage," Luo Tiance sighed, "I hope he won't blame me for putting such great pressure on him."
Cao Xiong muttered, "Well, what if your grandson fancies a married woman from one of our eight families? Do we still have to indulge him?"
Before Luo Tiance could speak, Zhu Wushi cursed, "Shameless, do you think everyone is like your Cao Family—uninterested in beauties, but in someone else's wife?"
Cao Xiong glared.
"I'm telling you not to talk nonsense without basis, slandering good people."
Zhu Wushi spat.
"Your family's Cao Potian isn't very old, probably hasn't even grown out all his hair, yet he's already caused a huge commotion by taking a fancy to a widow, hasn't he?"
"Shut up!"
Cao Xiong was somewhat reluctant to meet the eyes of the other old friends; it was embarrassingly shameful because what Zhu Wushi said was true, and was even more exaggerated than the rumors outside.
After all, the Heroic Spirit awakened by Cao Potian was that of their old ancestor.
Cao Xiong changed the subject, "Now, the last matter is how to make Elder Luo's grandson look more like the God's Child."
Luo Tiance turned his gaze towards Zhu Wushi.
"Old Zhu..."
"What now..." Zhu Wushi shuddered with a bad premonition.
Luo Tiance said slowly, "I remember, do you not have a treasure obtained from the Ancient Ruins that can evolve all sorts of illusions?"
"That is a first-rank artifact that creates illusions; I believe its effects are even beyond that, but I just haven't figured it out yet," Zhu Wushi said warily.
Luo Tiance's eyes lit up.
"Well, isn't that perfect for disguising my grandson as the God's Child?"
"Hand it over." Luo Tiance walked towards him and extended his hand.
Zhu Wushi's face twitched.
"This... Isn't this outright robbery?"
Luo Tiance laughed, "Old Zhu, if you say that, I might have to draw my sword; this is a contribution to the cause of Great Xia. I'm dedicating my grandson, why would I not ask for your trifle?"
Trifle?
Zhu Wushi was on the verge of crying with heartache, but ultimately, he reluctantly handed over a hazy, elusive pearl to Luo Tiance.
"This object is named the Huanling Pearl; it can create all sorts of illusionary scenes. As long as your imagination is rich, these illusions can be indistinguishable from reality, except for lacking in offensive power."
"Hmm." Luo Tiance nodded and then approached Zhao Yingtian with a smile.
"Old Zhao, if I remember correctly, do you not have a Jade Pendant that can both conceal and simulate the presence of strength?"
Zhao Yingtian shook his head, "I already bestowed it to the Little Martial God of my house."
"Retrieve it, my grandson needs it." Luo Tiance said, allowing no refusal.
Eventually, Zhao Yingtian was persuaded and, with a crestfallen expression, agreed.
After a round of plundering, Luo Tiance prepared various treasures from the Ancient Ruins for his unborn grandson.
"Elder Luo, it's all on you now."
"Just wait for your grandson to be born; we will make as much noise as we can, shock the world!"
"I have it under control."
Luo Tiance flew away on his sword, breaking through the conference room's window and disappearing into the distance.
The other eight territorial lords also clenched their fists and left in succession.
Three days later, in The Capital Base City, the city center.
Luo Family.
With a mansion that spanned hundreds of miles, adorned with gardens, rockeries... these retro landscapes were magnificent and imposing.
Outside the mansion walls, heavy troops were stationed around, and patrolling soldiers were everywhere.
Even more so, countless accomplished experts were hidden in the shadows, guarding the mansion.
At that moment, the entire Great Xia Country, and even major forces around the world, were closely watching the Luo Family Mansion, because they all knew.
The third generation of the Luo Family was going to be born today...
