No Declaration, No Objection!
Upon hearing this—
Qin Lu narrowed his eyes slightly, silently sipping his tea, clearly not expecting Ye Wuxu to have discovered something, or perhaps...
Has he already sensed something is wrong?
However, Ye Wuxu's guess was a far cry from the truth, but ironically, two negatives made a positive, and he guessed the correct answer...
There were indeed many major upheavals recently...
But that wasn't the Fortune Heaven Sect; it was all due to Qin Lu's four Nascent Soul causing several major paths to tremble, which led Ye Wuxu to unexpectedly discover the Venerable Tianyan...
The Venerable Tianyan is the second Spirit Transformation Venerable of the Human Race, and his true identity is the second incarnation of the Venerable Shenji...
Ye Wuxu traced the matter back to Heavenly Evolution, and naturally guessed that it was the Venerable Tianyan Fortune Heaven Sect...
It was purely by accident that they discovered some secret!
And now--
Although Qin Lu didn't know what the Fortune Heaven Sect's plan was, Ye Wuxu had already sensed the existence of the Fortune Heaven Sect...
Then naturally, one will be on guard!
And the so-called butterfly effect must be something like this...
Qin Lu deviated from his predetermined fate, which also affected Ye Wuxu's fate, allowing him to see a deeper secret...
However, judging from the current situation...
Ye Wuxu is most likely just starting to get a clue and is still secretly making arrangements...
Knowing everything, Qin Lu could naturally guess Ye Wuxu's intention: to eliminate all potential threats completely...
Mixed it all up!
Because Qin Lu knows everything, he cannot easily intervene now; the situation is too chaotic, and he must continue to wait for the right opportunity...
Seeing Qin Lu remain silent, Gu Xuanzhen spoke up:
"What's wrong, Brother Qin?"
"But what did you think of?"
"As long as Brother Qin supports Senior Ye, we can establish a foothold and prepare for any unforeseen circumstances that may arise!"
Upon hearing this--
Qin Lu's expression changed slightly, revealing a hint of apology...
"It's not that I, Qin, am unwilling to help, but rather that my cultivation level is too low, and the world's situation is still far too chaotic..."
"Of course, Qin cannot easily step in."
"After all, as you all know, our Great Qin has only just embarked on the right path and it is not appropriate for us to interfere in the affairs of the mainland. Moreover, Great Qin is about to face another..."
"Entering the fray rashly is too risky."
Qin Lu's words were very tactful, but Gu Xuanzhen naturally understood his deeper meaning and Qin Lu's concerns, after all, the Great Qin was too young...
If anything unexpected happens to Qin Lu, the Great Qin will collapse overnight!
Moreover, this alliance is different from previous ones. The previous alliances were formed because they were squeezed out by the Four Kingdoms Alliance and the Daoqing Lineage...
People huddled together for warmth and survival in the cracks.
This time, the Longlife Three Truths Alliance is directly confronting the Four Kingdoms Alliance. If they bet on the wrong horse, they will face being purged...
Previously, as a neutral party, the worst that could happen was that the victor would suppress them.
It's not that there's absolutely no room for maneuver!
But now it's either rich or dead; given the difference, it's understandable that Qin Lu would be cautious...
Neither express an opinion nor support nor oppose it.
This is what Qin Lu meant: Qin Lu remains neutral, indicating his unwillingness to get involved in this mess, especially since the Great Qin Dynasty is located in the Northern Continent...
It is very far from the Central Lands; at most, it only has one eye in the Three Mysteries Kingdom.
This wouldn't affect the overall situation in the Central Lands Plains, so Gu Xuanzhen had nothing to say. In fact, Qin Lu refused to take sides...
This was also within their expectations.
After all, it involves risking one's life and fortune; being extremely cautious is always the right thing to do...
Then--
Gu Xuanzhen chatted with Qin Lu for a while longer before getting up and leaving to return to the Central Lands...
Although this trip failed to win over Qin Lu, it at least brought the two sides closer, as long as Qin Lu doesn't stab them in the back...
Neither Longlife Three Truths could accept it if they didn't side with the Four Kingdoms Alliance.
After seeing Gu Xuanzhen off, Qin Lu remained still, seemingly waiting for something. A short while later, a figure appeared in the sky...
It was none other than True Lord Qingyuan from the Four Kingdoms Alliance!
He shares the same title as True Lord Qingyuan of the Seven Beauties Star Domain, and his cultivation level is also at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, but the two cultivate completely different Daos...
The one who was killed by Qin Lu cultivated the paths of Ancient Wood and flourishing vegetation.
The True Lord Qingyuan of the Four Kingdoms Alliance Dao Law the Great Dao of Qingyuan within the Wood Dao. The so-called Qingyuan is a combination of the Wood Dao and the Qi Dao...
It is similar in nature to the Great Dao of Nether Moon.
Its primary ability is the Qingyuan Qi, the most powerful branch of the Great Dao within the Wood Dao. Its Qingyuan Qi...
It also possesses extremely potent toxicity!
In terms of overall combat strength, it is in no way inferior to that True Lord Qingyuan, who has already been killed by Qin Lu...
At this moment, the other party arrived uninvited. Anyone with a brain knows that they were there to recruit Qin Lu, since Qin Lu's combat strength is indeed not weak!
Although Qin Lu consistently emphasized his shallow cultivation and remarkably low-key demeanor...
But no one truly regarded a ruthless individual capable of threatening Nascent Soul Middle Stage as a newcomer, given Qin Lu's impressive record...
That's real, undeniable power!
In the battle alone against the Mieyang Immortal Palace, Qin Lu killed two Nascent Soul. Although he had the assistance of others, the fact that he was able to kill Nascent Soul Cultivator...
That certainly can't be simple!
How can it be explained away by a single stroke of good luck?
Everyone knew that Qin Lu was hiding his true strength, but no one could truly fathom the extent of his power...
This is also why Qin Lu has received so much attention.
"Fellow Daoist, since you're here, please have a seat!"
Qin Lu raised his cup in invitation, and True Lord Qingyuan, being a guest, readily complied. From the current perspective, since Qin Lu had invited him to sit down and chat...
This proves that cooperation between the two parties is not impossible.
No rejection means there's room for negotiation!
The old fox, having known this for a thousand years, was naturally well aware of this, and the smile on his face grew even wider, even his tone became more intimate...
"Friend Qin, you seem to have a refined taste, but judging from the posture just now..."
"Fellow Daoist Qin has clearly rejected Fellow Daoist Gu's attempt to win him over, but from your perspective, I can understand..."
"I believe you can guess why I've come."
Upon hearing this—
Qin Lu smiled, then shook his head.
"My meaning is very clear: I do not wish to be involved in the conflict between the two sides. However, I can assure Senior Heavenly Wind that I will not rashly interfere in the battle for the Spirit Transformation..."
"I'm still a newbie, and I just want to quietly guard my little corner of the world."
"This is my stance; I hope Fellow Daoist Qing will not force me..."
As he spoke--
Qin Lu abruptly changed the subject:
"More than your purpose in coming here, Fellow Daoist, I am curious about how you, Fellow Daoist Qing, managed to traverse the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains to reach the Northern Continent?"
"Logically speaking, the teleportation array leading to the Northern Continent is currently controlled by the Longlife Ancient Kingdom."
"Could it be that there's some hidden passage?"
