Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts-Chapter 5750 Smaller Scale
Chapter 5750 Smaller Scale
“Why talk about help? Whatever orders you have, just tell me,” said Long Chen hastily.
Luo Zichuan sighed, “If it were before, I naturally would have given you orders because you are the son of my Luo family, and it would be your duty to uphold your responsibilities. But your father has changed my thinking. Although you possess violet blood, you don’t owe anything to the Luo family.”
Long Chen was silent. His father was amazing. He had actually managed to change the opinion of a stubborn old man like his grandfather.
After all, Luo Zichuan was so stubborn that killing him might be easier than changing his mind. However, his father had done just that. Long Chen almost prostrated in reverence.
Luo Zichuan said, “Your father asked me why I resented Ningshuang. Then he asked if I would still resent her if her bloodline had been average. He said that if having children was only to fulfill the dreams we couldn’t achieve ourselves, then it was merely a business transaction. In that case, such a relationship was only about profit and utility, and there was no need to speak of familial ties.”
Long Chen was gobsmacked. His father was truly daring to say such a defiant thing in front of his grandfather.
“You can’t say it that way. Your goal was to save your ancestors. It was noble, and no one can criticize you,” said Long Chen hastily.
Luo Zichuan smiled faintly. “I said the same thing. But do you know what your father said? He told me that I couldn’t even take care of my own family, let alone save anyone. If I had shown Ningshuang fatherly love instead of treating her like an emotionless tool, would she have fled to the lower plane?”
Long Chen was left speechless. His father’s words were a brutal assault—one that left no room for defense.
Luo Zichuan sighed. “After so many years of stubbornness, I didn’t expect to be cursed awake by someone I once hated.”
“But you don’t blame him, right?” probed Long Chen.
“Why would I? It was indeed my fault. Pushing the blame onto others? That is not something I, Luo Zichuan, do. Hahaha!”
Luo Zichuan’s sudden laughter caught Long Chen off guard. Could it be that his grandfather had been cursed into madness by his father?
“In truth, your father was nervous when he said these things, but he had no choice but to act cold and aloof. He knew my temper. If he appeared weak, I would only look down on him. So he said something so defiant, forcing me to listen. It must have been hard on him,” sighed Luo Zichuan.
Long Chen secretly gave his dad a thumbs-up. Facing someone as obstinate as his grandfather, only a handful of truly great figures could remain composed.
If Long Chen had been in his father’s position, dealing with a stubborn old... definitely not fogey like his grandfather, he wasn’t sure he could have kept his temper in check.
Luo Zichuan said, “But that is in the past now. I’m grateful to Zhantian for pulling me out of my rigid thinking. Now, I can look at every issue from another angle... So, let’s talk about the Luo family and the violet blood race. The violet blood race has spent countless years cultivating itself, expending many resources to rise from the brink of extinction. This was only possible because of the legacy left by our ancestors.
“Through various methods, we managed to preserve the purest bloodline and nurtured a large group of experts, while those with inferior bloodlines were mercilessly eliminated over time. Now, the violet blood race has reached its golden era. We have countless heavenly geniuses, including tens of thousands of thirteen-vein Heaven Saints. But you’ve seen it yourself—though their realms are high and their bloodline power is immense, their actual combat abilities are mediocre. They have never stepped onto a real battlefield.
Long Chen nodded. He had noticed this glaring weakness.
Luo Zichuan continued, “Their fights have been limited to duels and competitions. But now that the laws of the nine heavens have returned, ancient factions are resurfacing in the Sovereign Emperor Heaven. The hidden branches of the violet blood race are also returning. As for those still lost in the crack between worlds, they... probably were crushed by the power of those worlds and turned to dust.”
Luo Zichuan could only sigh. Had he not been fortunate enough to find his ancestors in a space fissure and tear through the void to reach their hidden world, they too would have been doomed.
Luo Zichuan said, “The Luo family once had several branches, and my ancestors were only one of them. At that time, I became the hero of our branch.”
After pausing for a bit, Luo Zichuan continued, “I heard that the day you arrived, Luo Shenghui said a certain thing... that we were a waste of resources. In truth, he wasn’t entirely wrong. The greatest crisis facing the violet blood race is the shortage of resources. And this applies not only to those with weaker talents but even to the likes of Luo Shenghui. If they cannot prove their worth, they, too, will be deemed a waste.”
“No way!” Long Chen exclaimed in disbelief.
“Now that the laws of the nine heavens have changed, the violet blood race’s Sovereign Mountain will soon appear—our ancestral land. When that happens, all the branches will converge there. Our branch is not unique; there are at least eight thousand more like us, if not ten thousand. Do you think Sovereign Mountain can accommodate us all?” said Luo Zichuan.

Long Chen’s heart shook. “You mean... our branch must undergo a brutal selection? Only the strongest will be allowed to enter Sovereign Mountain? The rest will be discarded?”
“That is my speculation. The race leader has not revealed anything to me, but the evidence is clear. Our world was dragged to this realm by the Sovereign Emperor Heaven’s laws, and we find ourselves in conflict with a devil race. Through multiple battles, I can see that they seem to have the same plan—culling the weak through war.”
Long Chen couldn’t help but gasp. In that case, there was going to be a major cleansing throughout all the nine heavens. The world was now overflowing with experts, and for the weak, their mere existence was a crime.
“I understand. You want me to help the Luo family’s people survive?” asked Long Chen.
However, Luo Zichuan shook his head.
He replied, “A smaller scale. Only those who deserve to live should survive, not only from our family.”
Long Chen immediately grasped his meaning. The violet blood race and the devil race were waging war to purge their own weaklings, leaving behind only the elite among elites. Then, they would gather in their ancestral lands.
Long Chen said, “I understand, Grandfather. Don’t worry. Leave this matter to me. However, you know me. I can’t go all out if I’m not getting paid...”
Luo Zichuan chuckled. “As a disciple of the violet blood race, as long as you’re strong enough, all our resources are at your disposal.”
Long Chen’s eyes gleamed. When he thought of the violet blood race’s vast treasury, his blood surged with excitement.
“Alright! Then I’m all in!”
