New Plans
"How do you feel?" Lu Yuan slowly withdrew his finger and asked softly.
"I feel great! It's like all the fatigue has completely disappeared, my head isn't dizzy at all, and I feel refreshed and full of energy. Xiao Yuan, your Pure Qi Divine Power is really useful!" Qian Renxue said with admiration.
"It's useful, but I can't always stay by your side, nor can I restore you anytime, anywhere. You need to take good care of yourself and not push yourself too hard," Lu Yuan said softly, pinching Qian Renxue's cheek.
"Okay, I understand!" Qian Renxue nodded, grasped Lu Yuan's hand, pressed it against her face, and gazed at Lu Yuan quietly with her golden eyes, which were as clear as water, filled with deep affection.
"I haven't come to see you for three months. Have you missed me?" Lu Yuan gazed into Qian Renxue's eyes and asked softly.
"I think about you every day, but I can't leave. Otherwise, I would come to find you." Qian Renxue's beautiful voice rang out, her tone full of longing.
"Sigh, me too. I've been busy for the past three months refining Soul Tool and pills, training the team, and preparing for the competition. There's been a ton of stuff to do, and I only managed to find a little time to come see you today," Lu Yuan said.
"Refining Soul Tool and pills?" Qian Renxue asked softly, "Are the Soul Tool being refined for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? And those pills, are they the Longevity Pill and Youth Preservation Pill that are currently causing such a stir?"
"Yes!" Lu Yuan nodded and smiled slightly. Under Qian Renxue's questioning gaze, he withdrew his hand from her face. With a gentle gesture, a bright light flashed, and a pill that was entirely clear blue and had a beautiful cloud pattern around it appeared in Lu Yuan's hand.
"Xue'er, open your mouth," Lu Yuan's voice rang out.
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue couldn't help but slightly open her bright red lips. Lu Yuan gently pushed the clear blue, lustrous pill into Qian Renxue's mouth.
The pill melted instantly upon entering her mouth and went directly into Qian Renxue's stomach.
"Xiao Yuan, what was that pill just now?" Qian Renxue asked curiously.
She knew Lu Yuan loved her and that Lu Yuan would never harm her, so she swallowed the pill without hesitation.
But she was still curious; she wanted to know what that pill was.
"The pill you just took was Youth Preservation Pill, and a top-grade one at that. Ordinary Youth Preservation Pill can only preserve youth, but they can't make an already aged face look younger. But a top-grade Youth Preservation Pill can. It can restore the user's appearance to their best age and then keep it unchanged."
"Of course, it won't work on my precious Xue'er, because you are already at the most beautiful age, so you can't really tell anything. But from this moment on, your appearance will remain forever as if you are twenty years old."
Lu Yuan smiled slightly.
"So this is the Youth Preservation Pill." Qian Renxue nodded gently, then asked, "Did Zhu Zhuqing and the others take it too?"
"No!" Lu Yuan shook his head and said, "Zhu Qing is still young and growing. Taking the Youth Preservation Pill now would be harmful to her. As for Senior Sister, I haven't had time to give it to her yet. I'll give it to her when we get to the finals and Spirit City."
"Oh!" Qian Renxue gave a soft "oh" and asked, "What about Gu Yuena?"
When he said "Na'er," Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, but meeting Qian Renxue's gaze, he still spoke.
"You'll all find out about these things sooner or later, but I'll tell you some things first. The Youth Preservation Pill is useless for Na'er because she is already eternally young and will not change for thousands or thousands of years."
Lu Yuan said.
"It seems I was right after all. She's not human at all; she's a god, isn't she?" Qian Renxue stared intently at Lu Yuan and continued, "When I saw her, I already had a guess in my mind. Her aura was far stronger than my grandfather's and the Dragon Emperor Douluo's; it was like heaven and earth apart."
"I had already guessed it at that time, and I didn't expect it to be true."
"Your charm is truly immense; even the gods have fallen for you," Qian Renxue said softly, looking at Lu Yuan.
"Isn't it a given that I'm charming? Otherwise, how could I have won your heart?" Lu Yuan chuckled.
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue rolled her eyes at him but did not refute him. After all, her love for Lu Yuan was partly due to his extraordinary good looks.
"By the way, Xiao Yuan, is there something you need to see me about today?" Qian Renxue asked, changing the subject to inquire about Lu Yuan's purpose for coming today.
"It's nothing, I already told you I just came to see you," Lu Yuan said with a light laugh.
"Forget it, you can fool others, but you can't fool me. Your eyes clearly tell me you came to see me about something important. Otherwise, given your personality, you wouldn't have just given me a quick kiss; you would have at least done something more."
"At least you know something?" Lu Yuan asked with a smile.
"You know what you're good at!" Qian Renxue glared at Lu Yuan, her cheeks slightly flushed.
"Hehe!" Seeing Qian Renxue's blushing cheeks, Lu Yuan chuckled and decided not to tease her anymore. He would save that for later. Let's get down to business for now.
"You really can't hide anything from me." Lu Yuan sighed softly, looking into Qian Renxue's watery golden eyes, and asked, "Xue'er, you should know that Xue Ye is planning to win over our Dragon King Hall, right?"
"Yes, I know that. After all, your Dragon King Hall is very strong now, so it's normal for him to try to win you over. He has always wanted to win over some powerful Soul Master sects, but unfortunately, apart from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect supporting the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Clear Sky Sect has gone into seclusion, Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has always been neutral. He has never had a target."
"Now that your Dragon King Hall has suddenly appeared and is so powerful, it is only natural that he would choose to win you over. With the support of the Dragon King Hall, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family will surely gain more power and the Heaven Dou Empire will become even more impregnable. At the same time, he can also use your strength to fight against the Spirit Hall. This is what Xue Ye is thinking."
Qian Renxue spoke softly.
"Hmm." Lu Yuan nodded slightly. Qian Renxue was right; this was indeed the old man Xue Ye's idea.
"However, Xiao Yuan, if you were to intervene in the power center of the Heaven Dou Empire as the Hall Master of the Dragon King Hall, it would be a good help to us. If we join forces, it will be much easier to eliminate dissidents and remove obstacles, and we can take control of the entire Heaven Dou Empire more quickly."
"So Xiao Yuan, you must agree to this cooperation with the Heaven Dou Imperial Family."
As Qian Renxue spoke, her eyes were fixed on Lu Yuan.
