Reunion with Qian Renxue

"The second reason is Senior Dugu. For the time being, my identity must be kept secret, and Xue'er's identity cannot be exposed either, so we cannot let Senior Dugu know about our relationship. However, he has been following us, and we cannot find a suitable reason to leave him behind. We can take advantage of the fact that you are staying to take care of Dean Erlong to let him stay and protect you as well."

"In this way, we can legitimately keep Senior Dugu here."

Lu Yuan said with a faint smile.

"You're always full of bad ideas!" Zhu Zhuqing patted Lu Yuan's chest and said.

"How can you call it a bad idea? This is wisdom, this is intelligence," Lu Yuan said, pinching Zhu Zhuqing's delicate nose.

"Narcissist!" Zhu Zhuqing pouted and said in a coquettish voice.

"And you are right about one thing. I do have important business to discuss with Xue'er. Last time, I asked Mad Rhino Douluo to ask Xue'er to prepare some rare metals for me. I plan to make a few Soul Tool in the next few days, so they will probably all stay with Xue'er. Since you are with me, I will not have time to take care of you."

Lu Yuan said with a serious expression.

"Pah, so in the end, you still went to find Qian Renxue, didn't you?" Zhu Zhuqing rolled her eyes.

This guy might indeed have important business to discuss with Qian Renxue, but to do business during the day and then take the opportunity to stay overnight—this scoundrel is definitely capable of doing something like that.

Oh well, this rascal has been with me for so long, it's time for him to take a few days to spend time with Qian Renxue. This brat may not say it, but he probably misses her terribly, so it's better to let him go.

Otherwise, if we force him to stay, he'll really think we're petty.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan gave a wry smile. He did indeed miss Qian Renxue very much, and he even had some Immortal Herb to give her. With these two Immortal Herbs, it wouldn't be a problem for Qian Renxue to break through to level sixty.

After a rough calculation, it seems that Qian Renxue has been stuck at level 59 for several months without breaking through. It seems that even a genius like Qian Renxue needs time when facing the bottleneck between Soul King and Soul Emperor.

Seeing Lu Yuan's wry smile, Zhu Zhuqing reached out her jade-like hand to straighten Lu Yuan's clothes and said, "Go if you want to. After all, she is your first woman. You have been with me long enough. I can't always monopolize you. Otherwise, Qian Renxue might have a problem with me."

"You're always so sensible!" Lu Yuan smiled slightly upon hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words.

Gently stroking Zhu Zhuqing's long hair, I realized how well she always knew when to advance and retreat, and I was growing to like her more and more.

"My lord, shall we go directly to Mistress Xue's place?" Long Xiaoyao asked.

"Well, let's go straight there. I imagine Xue'er has already prepared all those rare metals," Lu Yuan said.

Lu Yuan and his companion set off from the Blue Tyrant Academy toward the Crown Prince Estate.

The two traveled at full speed, and although Heaven Dou City was large, it took them less than an hour to reach a place not far from the Lu Yuan Crown Prince Estate's residence.

"Old Long, go in!" Lu Yuan's hand flashed with light, and the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud appeared instantly. The magnificent blue light shield enveloped Lu Yuan completely, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

In the Crown Prince Estate, Qian Renxue was reviewing official documents. Occasionally, she twirled the pen in her hand, blinked her beautiful eyes slightly, and asked softly, "Has that brat prepared all the metal he wanted?"

"All the metals Young Master Yuan requested have been prepared. They can be delivered whenever Young Master Yuan needs them," said the Snake Lance Douluo from not far away.

"That's good. Is that jerk still with Dugu Bo? We haven't received any updates for several days." Qian Renxue said, glancing at the Mad Rhino Douluo beside the Snake Lance Douluo.

"I'm not quite sure about that either. When Young Master Yuan asked me to pass on a message to Miss, he told me to stay here and that he would come to find Miss in a few days."

"Now I reckon that Young Master Yuan should have already left Dugu Bo's place."

"Mad Rhino Douluo said."

"Is that so?" Qian Renxue tapped her fingers lightly on the table, making a clicking sound. After a moment, she looked up at the Snake Lance Douluo and said, "Uncle She, please have the people from the Spirit Hall go and check again. That jerk told me to prepare the metal and that he would come to find me in a few days. But now that the metal is ready, he hasn't sent a single word."

Qian Renxue's tone carried a hint of resentment. This jerk had been in Heaven Dou City for so long, but he had only met her once, and he had brought Zhu Zhuqing with him. The two of them hadn't even spent a single moment alone together!

That jerk just spends all his time with Zhu Zhuqing, leaving her all alone.

"You heartless bastard!" Qian Renxue cursed inwardly.

"Who said there was no news? Here I am, aren't I?" A faint laugh came from outside the door. The blue light dissipated, and the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud spun in Lu Yuan's hand. With Sisi smile on his face, he strode into the study.

"Young Master Yuan!" As soon as Lu Yuan entered, several Titled Douluo hurriedly greeted him.

"Senior Snake Lance!"

"Pufferfish Senior!"

"Mad Rhino Senior!"

Lu Yuan greeted the three Titled Douluo one by one, but his eyes were fixed on Qian Renxue.

"What's wrong, Xue'er? It's only been a few days. Are you so eager to know about me? Have you been missing me?" Lu Yuan said teasingly.

"Ahem, Miss, please continue your conversation with Young Master Yuan. We three old folks will take our leave now." Seeing the two lovelorn lovers gazing at each other with affection again, Snake Lance Douluo shuddered and quickly said.

Heaven have mercy, he doesn't want to eat dog food anymore. He's already so old, and he still has to go through this kind of torment. Sigh!

It's tough!

"Yes, Miss, we'll take our leave now. If you need anything, just give us a call!" Mad Rhino Douluo quickly added.

For the past few days, he had been following Lu Yuan and Zhu Zhuqing around, and he was so tired of seeing them being so affectionate that he didn't want to eat any more of their lovey-dovey stuff.

"Then you can go down first!" Qian Renxue naturally understood what the three Titled Douluo meant. Her pretty face flushed slightly as she waved her hand and said.

"Yes!" The three Titled Douluo nodded and quickly left the study, thoughtfully closing the door behind them.

"Xue'er, you haven't answered me yet. Did you miss me?" After the three left, Lu Yuan slowly walked to Qian Renxue's side, raised his right hand, and removed Qian Renxue's disguise. Instantly, the beautiful Qian Renxue returned.

"Stop being so narcissistic, who would want a stinky guy like you!" Qian Renxue tilted her head slightly, with an arrogant expression.

"Really? But I miss you so much, Xue'er!" Lu Yuan smiled slightly, grabbed Qian Renxue, and then carried her in a princess carry.

"Ah!" Startled by Lu Yuan's sudden attack, Qian Renxue cried out in surprise, quickly hugging Lu Yuan 'Lu Yuan neck and punching him in the chest with her fist. "You brat, this is the study, don't do anything reckless."
