Thoughts and Zhu Qing
"My lord!" Seeing Lu Yuan stand up, Long Xiaoyao knew that his lord had finished absorbing the knowledge and had made a great breakthrough.
Even Long Xiaoyao was somewhat taken aback by that blue-gold light just now; even Soul Sage couldn't withstand that attack, even if they activated their Martial Soul Avatar.
Based on his years of experience, Long Xiaoyao made a judgment: the power of that attack definitely surpassed that of Soul Sage. His master was truly formidable.
"Shh, don't disturb Zhu Qing!" Lu Yuan put his index finger to his lips and said softly.
As he spoke, he looked at the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud that Zhu Zhuqing had placed aside, reached out and beckoned it into Lu Yuan's hand.
He poured Soul Power into it and then put it back. This thing would lose its effect if the poured Soul Power disappeared over time, so Lu Yuan poured some Soul Power into it again so that it could protect Zhu Zhuqing.
"Old Long, come over here!" Lu Yuan took a few steps away, making sure his voice wouldn't disturb Zhu Zhuqing, before stopping. Of course, he didn't go far; he wouldn't let Zhu Zhuqing out of his sight.
"Old Long, it's getting dark. Go and have Dugu Bo prepare some food and send it over. If the old man doesn't have any ready, you can have him send some ingredients over. It would be best if he sent over a few more fish, Zhu Qing loves grilled fish!" Lu Yuan said.
"Yes, my lord!" Long Xiaoyao nodded and asked, "And here?"
"Leave this to Mad Rhino Senior. His protection is enough. Just go and come back quickly," Lu Yuan said.
"Yes, my lord. However, this Mad Rhino is not your direct subordinate. He is the High Priest's man. You should be careful when using him. Although the High Priest is close to you, it is still best to be cautious. After all, the Snow Mistress is the Snow Mistress, and the High Priest is the High Priest."
"The one in charge of the Worship Hall now is the High Priest, not the Snow Mistress. And since you have already taken on the fate of Soul Beast, the Angel God behind the High Priest is also someone you need to be careful of." Long Xiaoyao's Sound Transmission, reaching Lu Yuan's ears.
After all, as Lu Yuan's most loyal henchman and inseparable ultimate bodyguard, Long Xiaoyao naturally knew about Lu Yuan's relationship with the Soul Beast, and Lu Yuan did not hide it from him.
Anyone in this world could betray Lu Yuan, but Long Xiaoyao, summoned by the system, would never do so, so there was no need to hide it from him.
"I know, Old Long, thank you for reminding me!" Lu Yuan said with a slight smile.
"Since you, my lord, are aware of the situation, then I am relieved. I will go now!" Long Xiaoyao said.
"Go ahead!" Lu Yuan nodded.
Long Xiaoyao's figure gradually disappeared.
Lu Yuan walked back and sat down not far from Zhu Zhuqing, staring blankly at Zhu Zhuqing pretty face.
What Long Xiaoyao said actually makes a lot of sense. No matter how good Qian Daoliu to him, it was only because he had the ability to revitalize the Spirit Hall and had an intimate relationship with Qian Renxue. Putting all that aside, there was no real affection between him and Lu Yuan.
Qian Daoliu is a messenger of God, and wholeheartedly serves the Angel God.
If he were to truly become an enemy of the Divine Realm in the future, Qian Renxue would definitely stand by his side, because she was already his woman. However, Qian Daoliu would not. He would only obey the orders of the Angel God, because that was the divine messenger, a divine messenger who devoted all his faith to the gods.
So don't be fooled by the fact that he and Qian Daoliu seem to have an exceptionally close relationship now. In the end, they may not be able to stand on the same side, especially after Gu Yuena's identity is exposed. That rift will definitely appear.
This is why Lu Yuan wanted to create his own power.
Only a force under one's own control is the most secure. Deep down, Lu Yuan still doesn't trust the Worship Hall. If the opponent is an enemy of the Spirit Hall, then Lu Yuan believes that he and Qian Daoliu will cooperate perfectly. But if Lu Yuan wants to help the Soul Beast, Qian Daoliu might be the first to object.
As for Bibi Dong, Lu Yuan wasn't worried. Just as he supported her, she would support him in return, because they were both people who valued relationships. They would never abandon someone they cared about, which was a major reason why Lu Yuan had always stood by Bibi Dong's side.
Therefore, Lu Yuan can certainly use Mad Rhino, a member of the Qian Daoliu School, but if it involves his own secrets, then I'm sorry, he absolutely cannot let him know.
In summary, Lu Yuan's purpose in creating his power was twofold: first, to help Qian Renxue annex the Heaven Dou Empire, and second, to assist the Spirit Hall in unifying the continent.
Secondly, it possesses a powerful force of its own, which, when necessary, can be used to counterbalance Qian Daoliu's Worship Hall and to help Lu Yuan achieve his goal of liberating civilians.
As for the Divine Realm, that's not something any so-called power can handle; they can only rely on themselves.
Facing the Divine Realm, without the fighting power of the deities, it is utterly useless.
While Lu Yuan was lost in thought, Zhu Zhuqing had already absorbed all the medicinal power.
As soon as she opened her big, bright, dark eyes, she saw Lu Yuan staring at her blankly, his brows furrowing slightly at times.
Lu Yuan's expression was serious, as if he was considering something.
Lu Yuan's serious expression made Zhu Zhuqing's eyes light up. She loved Lu Yuan's serious look; he was exceptionally handsome and charming.
Zhu Zhuqing secretly looked around. Long Xiaoyao was not there, and Mad Rhino Douluo was also wandering around, not paying any attention to this side.
Zhu Zhuqing gently bit her red lips, then took a step forward and bumped directly into Lu Yuan's arms. The suddenness of the fall caught Lu Yuan off guard, and he was knocked to the ground by Zhu Zhuqing, her body pressing down on him.
Startled by the sudden movement, Lu Yuan immediately snapped out of his daze. He gently pulled Zhu Zhuqing his arms, bit her red lips, and said softly, "Little kitty, what are you trying to do? In broad daylight, do you intend to force yourself on me?"
"Who forced themselves on you? And it's not broad daylight!" Zhu Zhuqing grumbled.
"Oh, it's already dark, it's definitely not broad daylight!" Lu Yuan's tone carried a hint of amusement. "So you're trying to force yourself on me just because it's not broad daylight? Little kitty!"
"Who forced themselves on you? I didn't! I just wanted to hug you. If you keep talking nonsense, believe me, I'll bite you!" Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face was flushed with Sisi shyness. All she wanted was to snuggle into this guy's arms.
She just accidentally used too much force and knocked him down. When did she ever intend to force herself on him?
That jerk! He really has no tact when he talks, how could he say such things about her!
