Impressive, You Actually Managed to Offend an Undying Realm Expert
Lu Zhengran happily led his younger brothers and sisters to the backyard. Just then, Lu Zixuan and her two companions returned from the academy.
They were surprised to see a group of strangers in the yard.
"Second Brother!" Lu Miaomiao's big eyes lit up when she saw Lu Zhengran, and she rushed over to Lu Zhengran in a flash.
"Haha, Miaomiao! You're back from school!" Lu Zhengran picked up his little sister.
"Why are you back? Did you miss Grandpa Xiao's cooking? Are you going back after tonight?" Lu Miaomiao asked Lu Zhengran expectantly.
Lu Zhengran's expression changed slightly, but he still maintained his smile and said, "I'm not going back. Your second brother will stay here with you."
Really?!
"Uh-huh!"
Upon hearing her brother's words, Lu Zixuan realized something, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes before she walked up to him.
"Sister!" Lu Zhengran called out with a smile.
Lu Zixuan nodded, looked at Zhen Pengda and the others, and asked, "These are your younger brothers and sisters?"
Lu Zhengran nodded and quickly said to Zhen Pengda and the others, "Quickly call her 'Big Sister'!"
"Big Sister!" Zhen Pengda and the others grinned.
Lu Zixuan smiled and nodded.
"Sister, I'll take them to the backyard to soak in the Water of the Yellow Springs first, then I'll talk to you later!"
Let's go together.
"Okay, Miaomiao, are you going to Dad's, or are you coming with us?"
"I'm going to Daddy's! I'll play with Second Brother later!"
Lu Miaomiao smiled and ran towards the stone pavilion.
"Daddy! There are so many people! Who are these uncles and aunties?" Lu Miaomiao was not shy at all. She ran straight to Lu Qing'an Lu Qing'an, sat on his lap, and tilted her head to look at Zhao Hanfeng and the others.
"Don't you recognize your Uncle Feiyu?"
"Oh! Uncle Feiyu is here too! Long time no see!"
"Haha, Miaomiao is still so cute! Come here, let Uncle Feiyu give you a hug!"
"..."
Lu Zhengran and Lu Zixuan walked together towards the backyard.
During the journey, Lu Zixuan sent a telepathic message to her younger brother, asking with some hesitation, "You're really coming back? Not going back? Then, what about Mother...?"
Lu Zhengran glanced at his older sister, sensing her concern for their mother from her awkward expression. He sighed softly and replied telepathically, "Mother said her cultivation speed will be faster when I'm not there..."
Lu Zixuan remained silent for a moment, then continued to ask telepathically, "Is she alright now?"
Lu Zhengran: "It's alright..."
"OK..."
Inside the stone pavilion.
With Lu Miaomiao's arrival, the atmosphere changed considerably. Zhao Hanfeng and the others were no longer as reserved as before. With Xue Tianfei personally brewing tea, they each held a cup and drank the tea made from the leaves of the Demon God Mother Tree.
At the same time, there were also grapes with a green sheen to eat.
After eating a single grape, they felt as if their bodies were being cleansed by a special energy.
A thought even crossed their mind: if they ate too many grapes, any hidden constitution within them might awaken!
"Brother-in-law, there's something I've been thinking about, and I think it's necessary to tell you." Xu Xuanyu suddenly said at one point.
Lu Qing'an looked at Xu Xuanyu and said, "Speak."
Xu Xuanyu said, "When we killed Huangfu Qi earlier, two souls appeared in his body. One of them was a woman's soul, and that soul was very strange, saying some strange things."
He repeated exactly what the female spirit had said, word for word.
"Karma Dao Mark? Her senior brother will use them to find you?" Lu Qing'an had never heard of Karma Dao Mark.
Then he looked at Zheng Miaoyin and asked, "Have you ever heard of this thing?"
Upon hearing about the Karma Dao Mark, Zheng Miaoyin was astonished. When asked about them, she quickly replied, "These Karma Dao Mark are no simple matter! Only Undying Realm expert can imprint them on another's soul! Generally, Undying Realm experts will imprint Karma Dao Mark on the souls of their newborn descendants or disciples when they take on new apprentices. If they encounter danger while traveling, simply stating that their souls bear Karma Dao Mark will deter enemies from attacking them."
"The Undying Realm?!" Xu Xuanyu opened his mouth, somewhat bewildered.
Lu Qing'an glanced at Xu Xuanyu.
Thinking to himself, "This kid's got some skills. He's only at the Profound Heaven Emperor Realm and he's already offended an Undying Realm expert?"
Bao Huai of the Pill Cloud Continent is only at the Reincarnation Realm. Above the Reincarnation Realm is the Creation Realm, and above the Creation Realm is the Undying Realm.
"In what level of continent do people at the Undying Realm usually reside?" Lu Qing'an asked calmly.
Zheng Miaoyin said, "At least it's the Six Heavens Continent."
Lu Qing'an patted Xu Xuanyu on the shoulder. "Very good, you've been targeted by a powerful figure from the Six Heavens Continent. You should be proud of yourself."
Xu Xuanyu's lips twitched violently.
Brother-in-law!
This!!
Lu Qing'an was naturally not afraid of the Undying Realm experts; it would be even better if they came, allowing him to capture one for further study.
However, he could scare Xu Xuanyu. After eliminating Huangfu Qi, Xu Xuanyu probably wouldn't be as diligent in his cultivation as before. With this crisis in the works, the kid would likely work even harder to cultivate.
Xu Yunyi was also frightened and looked at her younger brother with a worried expression.
Undying Realm expert!
Couldn't they just slap the Cangyun Continent?!
Lu Qing'an then looked at Zheng Miaoyin and asked, "Is it possible that this soul originated from your Divine Continent?"
Zheng Miaoyin thought for a moment and shook her head directly, "I don't think the probability is high! Souls from our Divine Continent almost always come on those Divine Crossing Flying Ship, and they are all criminals. On the Divine Continent, Undying Realm experts are already among the top-tier beings. If someone close to them commits a crime, they wouldn't be exiled to such a remote area."
Lu Qing'an nodded slightly.
That makes sense.
"You mean, her soul coming here was rather accidental?"
For example, what happened when this person passed through this area that caused their soul to enter the Cangyun Continent?
"Then I don't know." Zheng Miaoyin shook her head.
Lu Qing'an suddenly realized something, and his expression turned strange.
Zheng Miaoyin said that when the Divine Crossing Flying Ship passed through this area, there were two people and a very powerful, Ominous Living Being fighting in the outer realm. Could this soul be one of those two people?
Or perhaps the soul of that Ominous Living Being?
Thinking of this, he smiled.
It seems that there are still many secrets about the Cangyun Continent that have not yet been discovered.
Either way, it doesn't really matter to him now.
He is not afraid of any threats.
"Anyway, you should focus on your cultivation." Lu Qing'an looked at Xu Xuanyu and smiled mysteriously.
"Brother-in-law... I'm still only at the Emperor Realm, and I haven't even reached the Tribulation Heaven Emperor Realm yet. When will I be able to cultivate to the Undying Realm?! It's too difficult!!" Xu Xuanyu cried.
At this point, he stared at Lu Qing'an, asking hopefully, "Brother-in-law, tell me honestly, is it possible for you to be unafraid of the Undying Realm?"
After that question was asked, many people present stared at Lu Qing'an.
Zhao Hanfeng and the others were completely unaware of the realms beyond the Emperor Realm, so they were utterly confused.
Xiao Qingyi and the others were well aware of this, and they increasingly felt that Lu Qing'an might be more than just Peak Chaos Emperor Realm.
Zheng Miaoyin, in particular, had already concluded that Lu Qing'an was a top-tier, terrifying being from a high-level continent, and very likely a powerful figure from the Nine Heavens Continent!
Perhaps he's still Eternal Realm expert!!
Seeing Xu Xuanyu's terrified and somewhat desperate expression, Lu Qing'an knew that this might backfire. After a moment's thought, he said, "Alright, my strength is average. I can barely hold my own against someone at the Undying Realm. Just focus on your cultivation! Don't rely on me for everything!"
He wasn't lying about that!
It really is just one move!
