Return to Spirit Hall

"I originally wanted to stay and keep you company, but since I only have one day left, I have to go back tonight," Lu Yuan said with a smile.

"Go back if you want, I don't need you to keep me company!" Qian Renxue glanced at Lu Yuan and said, pretending not to care.

"You really don't need me to accompany you?" Lu Yuan asked with a smile.

"I don't care!" Qian Renxue said indifferently.

"Sigh, I'm so heartbroken. My Xue'er doesn't even want me to keep her company." Lu Yuan slumped into a chair, looking utterly dejected.

The despair in his eyes and the sorrow in his expression made Qian Renxue unable to help but chuckle. This guy was up to his old tricks again.

"Alright, stop fooling around." Qian Renxue her eyes at Lu Yuan and said softly.

"Alright." Lu Yuan sat up straight, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to his calm and indifferent demeanor. The speed at which he changed his expression left Qian Renxue speechless.

"Since we've agreed, I'll head back now and come find you again the day after tomorrow morning," Lu Yuan said, standing up.

"Wait, Xiao Yuan, don't go yet." Seeing Lu Yuan turn to leave, Qian Renxue quickly called out to him.

"Is there anything else, Xue'er?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Have dinner with me before you leave," Qian Renxue's soft voice rang out, tinged with a hint of tenderness.

"Alright then." Hearing Qian Renxue's words, Lu Yuan was taken aback at first, then his heart stirred, the corners of his lips curled up, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

After having dinner with Qian Renxue, Lu Yuan returned to the Dragon King Hall.

After entrusting some matters to Yan Shaozhe and asking him to find a way to stall Ning Fengzhi, Lu Yuan finally felt relieved.

This Second Trial came at a very inopportune time, so Lu Yuan and Qian Renxue had to make ample preparations to conceal their identities.

Yan Shaozhe, he was always prudent in his actions. Since he had been given instructions, he would definitely keep Ning Fengzhi occupied.

Lu Yuan didn't care how exactly they managed to stall them; he figured Yan Shaozhe must have his own methods.

After giving the instructions to Yan Shaozhe, Lu Yuan spent the next day taking Zhu Zhuqing and Wang Qiu'er on a leisurely stroll around the Heaven Dou Imperial City.

After all, after this separation, the next time we meet might be in two or three months.

Happy Shiguang always seem to pass too quickly; a day can fly by.

The next day, early morning!

Before the sun had risen, and with purple mist drifting in the sky, Lu Yuan had already woken up from his sleep and was dressed.

Looking at Zhu Zhuqing, who was still fast asleep, Lu Yuan smiled slightly, gently kissed Zhu Zhuqing forehead, and then turned and walked out.

As soon as Lu Yuan stepped out of the room, Zhu Zhuqing, who had been fast asleep, woke up. She touched her forehead and asked in a slightly cold voice, "Has he already left?"

Her tone was gentle, yet carried a hint of reluctance.

Two golden streaks flashed across the sky, leaving two faint golden trails in the clouds.

These two golden streaks of light were none other than Qian Renxue and Lu Yuan, who were flying at top speed.

Three days have Shiguang since they set off from the Heaven Dou Imperial City. During these three days, the two have been traveling at a rapid pace and are almost at the Spirit City.

"Xue'er, if you're tired, take a rest. There's no need to rush." Lu Yuan said with concern, looking at Qian Renxue, whose forehead was covered in sweat.

"No need, I'm fine. We're not far from Spirit City now, we'll be there soon. Let's rest when we get there," Qian Renxue said, shaking her head.

"Sigh, you're so stubborn." Hearing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but shake his head. Qian Renxue is good in every way, but she's a bit stubborn. She's already so tired, but she won't rest for a while. What's the rush?

"Xue'er, give me your hand!" Lu Yuan said to Qian Renxue.

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue was taken aback, and then extended her right hand as instructed.

Lu Yuan's dragon wings fluttered slightly, adjusting his speed to match Qian Renxue's. Then, he grabbed Qian Renxue's jade hand with his left hand, and a dense white light poured into Qian Renxue's body from Lu Yuan's hand. It was the Pure Qi Divine Power.

The Pure Qi Divine Power has many effects; dispelling fatigue and restoring energy are commonplace. Since Qian Renxue is unwilling to go down to rest, Lu Yuan has no choice but to use the Pure Qi Divine Power.

With the infusion of Pure Qi Divine Power, Qian Renxue's complexion quickly returned to its rosy hue, the sweat on her forehead disappeared without a trace, and she became even more energetic again.

"Xiao Yuan, your Pure Qi Divine Power is truly a panacea! It can heal injuries, restore health, and even help bloodline evolution. It's incredibly versatile," Qian Renxue said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan smiled faintly. The Pure Qi Divine Power was indeed incredibly useful, and he had only scratched the surface of it.

"Feeling much better now?" Lu Yuan asked with a light laugh.

"Mmm, that feels much better!" Qian Renxue nodded and said.

"That's good. Now you can hold my hand and fly, so you won't get tired again. You have no idea how much it breaks my heart to see you looking so exhausted," Lu Yuan said.

"It's good that you feel sorry for me, that's exactly what I want you to feel sorry for," Qian Renxue said proudly, tilting her head slightly.

"You!" Lu Yuan sighed softly, squeezed Qian Renxue's palm, felt the warmth from her soft jade-like hand, smiled slightly, and unconsciously tightened his grip a few times.

Half an hour later, the two finally arrived at Spirit City.

Several months later, upon returning to Spirit City, both of them felt a mix of emotions.

Although Heaven Dou City is not much different from Spirit City, it lacks that sense of belonging. Only here can they feel at home.

Holding Qian Renxue's hand, the two entered Spirit City directly.

Having passed the guards of the Temple Knight, and gazing at the enormous palace in the distance, Qian Renxue looked at Lu Yuan and softly asked, "Xiao Yuan, do you want to go back to see her first, or come with me to the Angel Temple to undergo the assessment?"

"I'll go see my teacher first, and then I'll go to the Angel Temple to find you later," Lu Yuan said softly.

"Alright then, hurry up and come, I'll be waiting for you," Qian Renxue said.

"Okay! I'll be there in a bit," Lu Yuan said with a gentle smile.

After parting ways with Qian Renxue halfway, Lu Yuan headed directly towards the Papal Hall. At this moment, the sun was high in the sky, Bibi Dong should be handling government affairs in a side hall of the Papal Hall.

Moreover, since he returned so openly without trying to conceal his whereabouts, Bibi Dong should have known he was back long ago, and might even be waiting for him to come see her in the side hall right now.

Lu Yuan secretly wondered to himself.

Lu Yuan walked quickly, and in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Lu Yuan had already entered the Papal Hall and headed towards the side hall.
