By carriage, they would arrive in no more than the time it took to burn an incense stick,

and during that time,

"Xue Qinghe" treasured every moment,

as for why?

The reason was actually very simple.

Because only during this time could "he" speak with Lu Yunzhu alone, get to know him more deeply, learn the full extent of his abilities, and find out more about cultivators and cultivation.

Therefore,

Xue Qinghe cherished these few precious moments.

"Mr. Lu, may I... boldly ask you a few small questions?"

"Xue Qinghe" spoke cautiously,

afraid of offending Lu Yunzhu and provoking his displeasure.

Hearing this,

Lu Yunzhu, who had been resting with his eyes closed, replied, "Your Highness, please ask."

"Can cultivators... truly bring the dead back to life?"

As "Xue Qinghe" asked this question,

"he" nervously clenched his fists without realizing it.

Nodding slightly,

Lu Yunzhu answered without hesitation, "They can."

After saying that,

he seemed to recall something.

As he opened his eyes, Lu Yunzhu spoke again and asked, "May I ask whom the Saintess wishes to save? Qian Xunji?"

Lu Yunzhu's words

were like a thunderbolt striking from the heavens.

"Xue Qinghe's" pupils instantly contracted, and "he" froze.

It was also because of Lu Yunzhu's words

that Snake Lance Douluo Yu Long, who was driving the carriage, was stunned for a moment, causing the moving carriage to pause briefly.

"Mr. Lu... I... I don't know what you mean."

After slowly recovering,

"Xue Qinghe" unconsciously swallowed,

then spoke with a smile.

Receiving that answer,

Lu Yunzhu shook his head in disappointment.

He took a deep breath,

then let it out heavily before replying,

"You know better than anyone whether you do or not. But in any case, if you want to discuss matters with me... then please take off that layer of skin on your face."

Chapter 18: Three Years, From an Ordinary Person to a Title Douluo

(Second update)

Lu Yunzhu had already made things this clear,

so no matter how foolish Qian Renxue was, she naturally understood that he had seen through her identity.

Since that was the case,

it would be inappropriate for Qian Renxue to keep hiding it.

Therefore,

she went along with it and dismissed the soul bone skill, removing her disguise.

Sensing the breathtaking change inside the carriage,

Snake Lance Douluo slowly drove onward,

while secretly thinking to himself,

I never expected the Young Master's disguise to... to be seen through by him!

One must know that this is a soul bone disguise even the Second Worship finds difficult to see through. Moreover... it was successfully used within the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace for over twenty years, yet now... he has seen through it.

Cultivators truly are... terrifying!

After unconsciously swallowing,

Snake Lance Douluo Yu Long was utterly shaken.

At the same time,

he understood in his heart

that he had likely been exposed as well.

However, since Lu Yunzhu had not pointed him out,

he would continue carrying out his duties,

doing his best not to cause Qian Renxue any trouble.

After Qian Renxue revealed her true appearance, Lu Yunzhu's calm gaze gained a hint of intrigued appreciation.

After slowly coming back to himself,

Lu Yunzhu smiled and said, "Now that's more like it."

"Mr. Lu is truly impressive. You saw through my flawless, perfect disguise of more than twenty years with such ease."

Looking at Lu Yunzhu,

and seeing that he bore no ill intent,

Qian Renxue unconsciously swallowed.

After gradually steadying her state of mind,

she spoke respectfully.

Not wasting time on pleasantries or idle chatter with Qian Renxue, Lu Yunzhu, knowing that she had come to him with a purpose, got straight to the point.

"From now on, you ask and I answer. But... I will only answer three questions. Understand?"

Hearing Lu Yunzhu's words,

and seeing that he had seized the initiative,

Qian Renxue, who had silently fallen into a disadvantageous position, wisely nodded and replied respectfully, "Understood."

At present, Qian Renxue was asking a favor of another.

Furthermore, Lu Yunzhu's strength was right before her eyes.

Therefore,

she had no choice but to bow her head under another's roof.

So what if Qian Renxue was the Young Master or Saintess of Spirit Hall? What if she was the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire?

Before Lu Yunzhu, a cultivator,

Qian Renxue did not dare act the least bit presumptuously,

for his value was simply too "great."

"Earlier, you asked whether cultivators could bring the dead back to life. I can tell you clearly that they can. But reviving someone who has been dead for many years is as difficult as ascending to heaven, and the chances are pitifully small. That is your first question. You have two chances left."

Having said that,

Lu Yunzhu smiled faintly.

Upon receiving Lu Yunzhu's answer,

Qian Renxue could not help feeling somewhat disappointed.

Qian Renxue truly wanted to save Qian Xunji and revive him, but after hearing Lu Yunzhu's words, she understood the difficulty involved.

After Qian Renxue slowly came back to herself,

she used her second question without hesitation.

"My second question is simple. I want to know Mr. Lu's background, and why you are seeking Dugu Yan."

Hearing Qian Renxue's words,

Lu Yunzhu smiled and teased, "That is two questions. Fine, fine. Since you have taken rather good care of me, I'll count those two questions as one."

"Thank you, Mr. Lu."

Upon hearing that,

Qian Renxue felt a little embarrassed,

but she did not refuse Lu Yunzhu's kindness. After all, why turn down a benefit offered for free?

"My background is simple. I was an orphan from Suotuo City in the Heaven Dou Empire. Three years ago, I was still an ordinary person. By a fortunate coincidence, I became a cultivator. You can investigate that yourself. With your status in Spirit Hall and your position as the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, I believe it will be easy for you to find out."

"As for why I am looking for Dugu Yan, that is simple as well. I promised that old man Dugu Bo that I would look after his granddaughter."

Outside the carriage,

Snake Lance Douluo Yu Long, who had been calmly driving, heard the two key phrases "three years" and "ordinary person."

His eyes immediately widened without realizing it.

After slowly, gradually recovering,

his heart was filled with incomparable shock and horror.

Three years... In three years, he went from an ordinary person to a Foundation Establishment cultivator capable of standing shoulder to shoulder with a Peak Douluo. Is that real? Three years are worth decades, perhaps even a full lifetime of my bitter cultivation. Truly, goods should be thrown away when compared, and people... make one furious when compared!

For a moment,

Snake Lance Douluo Yu Long hated that he was not a cultivator.

At the same time,

he could not help wanting to become one himself.

Though she did not know whether Lu Yunzhu was telling the truth,

Qian Renxue felt that he should not deceive her.

After slowly coming back to herself,

Qian Renxue found it all utterly unbelievable and astonishing.

Three years.

From an ordinary person

to a Foundation Establishment cultivator capable of rivaling a Title Douluo, all in merely three short years.

And an ordinary soul master,

in those same three years,

would already be doing quite well to raise their Soul Power by ten ranks, would they not?

Yet Lu Yunzhu,
