I Became Invincible After Sweeping The Floor For 70 Years

Chapter 128: From Now On, I’m No Longer a Handyman

Ling Ran knew that when the Elder King made a move, the purple light divine sword would at least be upgraded to one higher grade. However, she did not expect that it would be upgraded to the supreme grade in the end.

This was definitely a pleasant surprise!

A supreme-grade weapon was undoubtedly extremely useful to a cultivator.

For example, although she had just stepped into the Bahuang realm, she could cross two or three small realms with the supreme-grade purple light divine sword, allowing her to fight against experienced Bahuang Venerables in level three or level four. The weapon indeed made her stronger.

“Many thanks, Elder King!” Ling Ran immediately expressed her thanks and fondled the purple light divine sword lovingly. She could sense that the Dao patterns that she had inscribed on the sword were still there. However, the Elder King had sublimated all of them, making most of them reach the Sage level, and some were even Sage King level patterns.

To put it bluntly, this purple light divine sword could now be compared to a Sage intermediate-grade weapon. It was also worth mentioning that as Ling Ran’s cultivation increased and she stepped into the Sage realm in the future, the purple light divine sword would thus become a Sage supreme-grade sword even after the sword became a purple light Sage sword. It possessed great potential for growth, and this was truly valuable.

Lord Dragon was present at the Sages’ peak as well. As he looked at the purple light divine sword, he was filled with envy. He also wanted to own a supreme-grade weapon. This couldn’t do, he had to find a chance to ask Sage Chen to help him refine a supreme-grade weapon as well.

Lord Dragon secretly made up his mind.

After receiving the purple light divine sword, Ling Ran prepared to bid farewell and leave. She did not dare to continue disturbing the Elder King, but the latter stopped her and said, “Wait a moment, I still have something for you. This is a Sage robe. You should wear it.”

Qin Chen took out another Sage robe. It was the one he had obtained when he had checked in back in the Bahuang realm. It was not of much use to him now.

Since Ling Ran was the Holy Lord of the Taiyi Holy Land, she naturally had to be protected.

Of course, he had refined the Sage robe again. It was originally an intermediate-grade Sage robe, but now it was in the advanced grade.

To make something reach the supreme grade, the energy, time, and resources needed were exorbitant. Qin Chen couldn’t possibly spend so many resources on a Sage robe that was insignificant in his eyes. Therefore, he had only refined it and raised it by one grade in the past three years to better master the Heaven-Earth Weapon Refining Scroll.

Now, Ling Ran had stepped into the Bahuang realm and she was the strongest person in the Taiyi Holy Land other than him and Lord Dragon. In the future, if he was not around and the people or factions whom he had him took the opportunity to take revenge, Ling Ran would be the first to be targeted.

Therefore, Qin Chen felt guilty and decided to give the Sage robe to Ling Ran for protection.

When Ling Ran saw the Sage robe, she was instantly overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, and she immediately rejected the offer, “Elder King, I am already very grateful that you can help me raise the grade of my weapon. I cannot accept this Sage robe.”

Qin Chen shook his head, “This Sage robe is no longer of much use to me. You should wear it. As the Holy Lord of the Taiyi Holy Land, you must protect yourself.”

Ling Ran could not refuse such words, so she could only accept the robe and thank him, “Thank you Elder King for bestowing the Sage robe.”

After bidding farewell to the Elder King, Ling Ran left the hall. At the entrance of the Sages’ peak, she saw Qin Chen’s clone, the 17th Prince, sweeping the floor.

Qin Chen would occasionally ask his clone to sweep the floor here.

Although Lord Dragon, who knew the truth, had advised Qin Chen many times to reveal his true identity and question the latter just why he had to continue sweeping the floor, Qin Chen simply refused to expose himself, because he found himself enjoying this ordinary feeling.

After one’s identity was exposed, it seemed that one would instantly become a senior that everyone looked up to and respected. But after a long time, one would get tired of this feeling, and it was often accompanied by endless troubles.

He wouldn’t have the best of both worlds as he did now. On one hand, when he appeared as the Elder King, he would receive the admiration of everyone. On the other hand, he could also appear with his true identity and enjoy ordinary life without so many worries.

More importantly, if the ancient race found out that the Elder King was a junior who had only cultivated for a hundred years (they didn’t know about the time acceleration), they would do everything in their power to stop the human race from producing a great emperor.

Although Qin Chen was now a Sage King and had sufficient confidence, if a few great Sages from the ten thousand ancient races came with extreme ancient weapons, he would definitely die even if he had the system.

He had to wait and see. When he became a Supreme Sage, then he would completely expose his identity. At that time, he would rule the world and have nothing to fear.

For now, it was better to continue lying low.

When Ling Ran came out and saw Qin Chen’s clone, she naturally could not tell that it was just a clone.

All she could see was that the abandoned 17th Prince was still only in the Sancai realm after a hundred years. His talent was just ordinary, but it was still impressive that he could cultivate from a mortal body to this step.

She came before Qin Chen’s clone and sighed, “Qin Chen, I know that you’re not accepted by the Great Qin Dynasty and are thus resentful. Even though you’ve been working hard, you’ve rejected the sect’s offer to convert you into an official disciple many times. If you continue like this, you’ll never be able to return to the Great Qin Dynasty. Today, I will decide for you. You will no longer be a handyman. From now on, you will be an official inner disciple. You will receive a monthly salary of spirit stones from the Holy Land for cultivation, and you can also go to other cultivation places in the Holy Land to cultivate. I hope you can cultivate well. As long as you don’t give up, one day, you will make the Great Qin Dynasty look at you in a new light. At that time, you will be accepted again.”

After that, she turned around and left.

Qin Chen, who was left behind, had a look of shock on his face. He suddenly had the urge to vomit blood. He just wanted to be a salted fish who didn’t have to do anything. Why did she insist on him becoming an official inner disciple?

However, Ling Ran had already gone far away, and he could not say anything. He couldn’t let his true body, Elder King, come forward to change such a meager decision either.

He could only accept this.

The next day, Qin Chen went to the handymen’s yard first. Obviously, the handymen’s yard already knew about this.

The miscellaneous affairs elder was still the same one from back then, but his cultivation was already at the Wuxing realm. He looked at Qin Chen, who looked like he was in his 40s or 50s because he was hiding his cultivation, and sighed, “Qin Chen, you should have agreed long ago. Although your talent is average, you are still in the Sancai realm, which is enough for you to become an official inner disciple. It’s just that you are a little old as an official disciple.”

Qin Chen laughed bitterly. He really wanted to stay here. What was wrong with sweeping? He could hide his identity and check in at the same time.

If it wasn’t for his identity as a handyman, he wouldn’t have become a Sage King in a short hundred years.

After bidding farewell to the elder, Qin Chen also informed his senior brother before heading to the inner sanctum of the Taiyi Holy Land alone.
