Are You Really My Grandpa?

"Come on, let's go take a look too."

Li Qingping rose to her feet as well and looked at Xiao Qing beside her.

"Yes, Miss."

Upon hearing that, Xiao Qing led Li Qingping outside. By the time the two of them reached the entrance of the Princess's Mansion, Uncle Li was already confronting Lu Xuan across from him.

"Fellow Daoist, do you not know where this is? How dare you cause trouble before the Princess's Mansion? Do you mean to say that you do not hold Yuanwu Kingdom in your eyes?"

Uncle Li spoke first. Although Lu Xuan's realm was the same as his, he could sense that Lu Xuan was stronger. If they fought, he might not be a match for him.

"Not at all. I came to the Princess's Mansion only to find my grandson."

Lu Xuan spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly. Meanwhile, Li Xukun, standing beside him, was nearly scared stiff. Those were people from the Princess's Mansion, and one of them was even a Nascent Soul Realm powerhouse.

Lu Xuan could slip away afterward, but the Li Family had put down roots in Qingfeng Town. Where could they possibly run?

"Seniors, please rein in your auras. I can barely hold on."

Li Xukun said weakly, only to receive a cold snort from both Uncle Li and Lu Xuan.

Li Xukun: Fine, I'll shut up.

"Who is your grandson? My Princess's Mansion should not have your grandson here."

Only then did Uncle Li restrain his aura somewhat.

"My grandson is called Lu Jiuyuan. I am Lu Xuan, father of Lu Guang, the head of the Lu Family!"

Just as Lu Xuan's words fell, Lu Jiuyuan arrived before the Princess's Mansion under Xiao Wu's guidance.

"You're my grandpa?"

Lu Jiuyuan spoke in disbelief. He had originally thought that his entire family had been slaughtered by the Chen Family. He had never expected that he still had a grandpa alive.

As Lu Jiuyuan spoke, Lu Xuan noticed him as well and could not help feeling surprised. His grandson was truly a handsome young man.

"That's right. I am indeed your grandpa, if your father is Lu Guang."

Lu Xuan spoke with a serious expression. Having said that, he immediately moved to step forward and acknowledge Lu Jiuyuan, but Uncle Li stopped him.

"You keep claiming that you are Lu Jiuyuan's grandpa. Do you have anything to prove it?"

Uncle Li let out a cold snort. Lu Jiuyuan now possessed Heaven Grade Top-tier talent and was an unparalleled prodigy who had cultivated to the twelfth level of the Body Tempering Realm. No matter what, he had to protect Lu Jiuyuan well.

At those words, Lu Xuan's expression darkened. Yet because Uncle Li was from Yuanwu Kingdom, Lu Xuan could only force a drop of blood from his fingertip.

"If you do not believe me, you may use the Bloodline Recognition Technique."

Hearing this, Uncle Li turned to Lu Jiuyuan and agreed. If this man truly was Lu Jiuyuan's grandpa, helping the two of them recognize each other might improve Lu Jiuyuan's impression of him.

After learning that some of his blood was needed, Lu Jiuyuan did not hesitate and drew a drop of blood from his fingertip.

Although he could regard Yuanwu Kingdom as his backer, he ultimately had no blood relation to Yuanwu Kingdom. Who knew whether they might sell him out one day?

After obtaining the blood of both Lu Jiuyuan and Lu Xuan, Uncle Li did not hesitate in the slightest and directly performed the Bloodline Recognition Technique. Before long, he saw that the two drops of blood had completely fused together.

This meant that Lu Xuan truly was Lu Jiuyuan's grandpa.

Only after confirming it did Uncle Li allow Lu Jiuyuan to go to Lu Xuan's side.

"Grandson, you've suffered all these years. If Grandpa had been here, how could the Lu Family possibly have been destroyed by the Chen Family?"

Lu Xuan spoke with some self-reproach, while Lu Jiuyuan shook his head.

"Grandpa, I've already let go of the past over these years and accepted my current fate. But now that you've returned, we can rebuild the Lu Family."

A vast ambition flashed through Lu Jiuyuan's eyes. He wanted to rely on his passive ability to forge an unmatched Lu Family. Of course, Lu Jiuyuan did not know whether the system's passive ability could still trigger after reaching a certain level.

"Good, good, good. Now that Grandpa has returned, we will naturally make our Lu Family endure once more."

Lu Xuan nodded with a serious expression. The Lu Family of the past had already been wiped out, but so what? As long as he remained, as long as his grandson remained, the Lu Family remained.

"Then congratulations to Young Master Lu on being reunited with your grandpa. If you do not mind, when the Lu Family is rebuilt someday, the County Princess Manor will certainly prepare a generous gift for Young Master Lu."

At that moment, Li Qingping stepped forward and spoke with a smile.

"Then thank you, County Princess. I have troubled you during this time."

Lu Jiuyuan politely cupped his hands.

"Very well. In that case, I shall not disturb Young Master Lu and Senior Lu's reunion. Uncle Li, let us return."

After speaking, Li Qingping led Uncle Li and the others back into the County Princess Manor. Yet Li Qingping's presence made Lu Xuan rather curious.

"Grandson, that woman looks pretty good. If you get the chance, you need to seize it."

Lu Xuan looked at Lu Jiuyuan and spoke with a serious expression. Lu Jiuyuan could only respond with a bitter smile.

"Grandpa, she is King Li's most favored sixth princess. I'd better forget it, at least not for now."

"King Li? Grandson, I believe you can reach King Li's level."

Lu Xuan shook his head. Just as he was about to say more, Lu Jiuyuan hurriedly stopped him.

"Alright, Grandpa, let's find people to rebuild the Lu Family first. After all, only the two of us remain in the Lu Family now."

Lu Jiuyuan was afraid that his grandpa would say something else, lest the powerhouse secretly protecting Li Qingping hear it and come out to slap them to death.

After all, Lu Jiuyuan had once seen a powerhouse stronger than the Nascent Soul Realm appear out of thin air in the County Princess Manor. Judging by the fact that his grandpa could confront Uncle Li, his grandpa was probably only a Golden Core Realm powerhouse.

And he had never heard his father mention his grandpa. Most likely, this grandpa was background produced by the system's passive ability.

"County Princess, are we really just letting Lu Jiuyuan leave like this?"

Xiao Qing asked in disbelief. After all, they had all witnessed Lu Jiuyuan's talent. It would be best to keep such a genius close.

"Xiao Qing, you are still too naive. With a genius like him, one can only befriend him. If we forcibly keep him, it will only arouse his resentment, and the loss will outweigh the gain."

Only then did Xiao Qing nod, seeming to understand yet not fully understanding.

"Besides, the news has likely already reached the capital by now. Father will probably soon send someone to bring Young Master Lu into the Imperial Family. At that time, Young Master Lu likely will not refuse either. After all, Yuanwu Kingdom's strength is right here for all to see."

An unusual glint flashed across Li Qingping's face, but it quickly vanished.

Meanwhile, Lu Jiuyuan had already brought his grandpa to the renowned Spirit Building Shop in Qingfeng Town.
