The Search for the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone Vein
Xue Tianfei looked at Lu Qing'an and asked gently, "What's wrong?"
Lu Qing'an said, "It's nothing, have some tea."
Just then, Li Wensong returned.
Lu Qing'an was a little puzzled when he saw Li Wensong suddenly return.
Didn't I send him off to do something? Why is he suddenly back?
"Brother Lu, I've come to report something to you."
Lu Qing'an looked at Li Wensong with a beaming smile, like a newlywed young man, exuding an air of success, having married a beautiful wife and had a child.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Lu Qing'an calmly drinking tea, Li Wensong asked him what was wrong, a smile playing on his lips.
Actually, he had thought it wouldn't matter whether he came to report or not, since he already knew. But after hearing Lu Qing'an's words, he instantly realized that he shouldn't have had that thought.
Yes!
Even if you know this big shot knows everything, you still have to follow the proper procedures!
And so, this big shot knew what he was thinking, and his words and actions at this moment already gave the answer.
That means no matter what, the necessary procedures still have to be followed!
It's like a grand, sweeping plan. Perhaps this bigwig already knew the outcome long ago, but he still needs to implement and complete it step by step!
Li Wensong looked at Lu Qing'an with the same respect he had shown a student who had just received a lesson, his eyes filled with even greater admiration.
Lu Qing'an did nothing, but suddenly noticed that Li Wensong's expression kept changing, and he was looking at him like he was looking at an idol. He was confused again.
What's wrong with you now???
He really couldn't understand what Li Wensong was thinking; his mind was simply too bizarre to the extreme. He really wanted to see what it was like inside!
"Brother Lu, Chen Lingling came back to find us not long after she left..."
Li Wensong told Lu Qing'an everything that had just happened.
Lu Qing'an's expression remained calm throughout, but his initial confusion turned into shock.
What the heck??????
He doubted he had heard correctly.
How come they all match up?!
Lu Qing'an took a deep breath, then calmly picked up the teacup, secretly swallowing as she drank.
Good heavens!
Did it really seal away the memories?
But then, did Li Muchen seal away his own memories?
After Chen Lingling learned of this, she concluded that I had used some kind of Rule of Cause and Effect to control Li Muchen and perform an invisible, untraceable, and invincible method of sealing his memories.
Listen to this! Is what you're saying even true?
This isn't right!
I was just kidding you guys!
At the time, I really didn't know what to say, so I just gritted my teeth and pretended to have extraordinary abilities, forcibly sealing the memories of a Peak Eternal Realm expert...
Yes, his original intention was simply to use his superior strength and powerful soul to seal the other party's memories. It wasn't some strange method of using causal abilities to control the other party and make them seal their memories unconsciously.
This thing, which sounded so off, actually started to seem a little strange after Li Wensong and Chen Lingling imagined it!
"Yes, Chen Lingling has joined us now, so you guys should work on getting along well."
Lu Qing'an casually put down his teacup and calmly gave Li Wensong a word of advice.
All right!
He didn't care what exactly happened to make things this way; after all, he now had another Mid Eternal Realm subordinate!
Chen Lingling is even stronger than Lianxin, and it's said that she has connections with many Eternal Realm in the Nine Heavens Continent, and even knows a Peak Eternal Realm expert. A subordinate like that will definitely be of great use!
He did absolutely nothing, just casually pretended, and gained a Mid Eternal Realm subordinate whom he could command at will, with the potential to even break through to the Late Eternal Realm later on. It was an incredibly profitable, risk-free deal.
Seeing that Lu Qing'an remained calm throughout, displaying an invincible attitude as if he had already taken everything under control, Li Wensong smiled.
I knew it!
"Is there anything else you need me to do, Brother Lu?" Li Wensong asked with a smile. As he spoke, he stared intently at Lu Qing'an, carefully considering every word Lu Qing'an was about to say.
If something sounds off, there's definitely a deeper meaning to it!
Maybe I'll secretly give him another task!
Lu Qing'an shook his head directly this time. "That's all."
Li Wensong blinked, then nodded. "Okay, then I'll take my leave."
Okay, I just shook my head and said that's all, so there shouldn't be anything else!
Then I'll continue preparing for the trip to the Fallen God Sea!
And so, Li Wensong took his leave.
After the surroundings quieted down, Lu Qing'an glanced at Xue Tianfei and then said, "Xue'er, do you think I'm that powerful?"
Xue Tianfei blinked. "I feel like something's off..."
Lu Qing'an didn't want to hide anything from Xue Tianfei, so he whispered, "I do have strength, but I don't possess this kind of miraculous power at all. This Li Wensong is truly a talent!"
Xue Tianfei: "..."
Such talent is truly rare!
He suspected that if Li Wensong continued to develop his power, he could attract many subordinates with the Peak Eternal Realm strength!
Is it possible that one day, he will become the most powerful figure in the Nine Directions and Ten Domains, not through his own strength, but through the imagination of these people???
"It seems I need to prepare properly for the trip to the Fallen God Sea! Chen Lingling's willingness to serve me is probably related to her cultivation level. This time, she wants to find fortuitous opportunity in the Fallen God Sea to break through to the Late Eternal Realm. But I don't know what it takes to break through from the Mid Eternal Realm Late Eternal Realm..."
Lu Qing'an looked at his woman and smiled, "Xue'er, do me a favor. When you're doing business, could you please inquire about information regarding those who break through from the Mid Eternal Realm to the Late Eternal Realm..."
After listening, Xue Tianfei smiled and nodded in agreement.
She didn't know why, but she felt a great sense of accomplishment when she was able to help Lu Qing'an.
Days passed by.
There are less than three days left until the opening of the Fallen God Sea.
Just then, Lu Qing'an finally received the good news from Wang Duanshan and He Hong.
The two of them trotted out of the Time Cultivation Tower. As they walked together, they stood very close, giving off a strange vibe—somewhat like brothers, yet also somewhat like dao companion!
This perfectly illustrates what it means to be inseparable!
"All done! Look at this treasure!" Wang Duanshan plopped down, picked up the teapot, and poured tea into his mouth.
They were clearly thirsty, but they were too busy to drink water.
Lu Qing'an looked at the "Heaven-Seeking Treasure Mirror" on the table, which was emitting a faint glow, and asked, "Can it directly search for the location of Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone veins now? How do I use it?"
