As Their Child, You Had One Thing Very Much in Common With Them
After the meal.
Lu Changzhi got up and went to Dharma Form Peak.
Where is Peak Master Xu?
They arrested a nearby person and questioned him.
Then, Lu Changzhi received an answer:
"The peak master has gone into seclusion again."
"Um?"
After listening, Lu Changzhi's expression became somewhat strange.
So there was still some stock left over from last time?
Thinking to himself, Lu Changzhi said to the other party:
"Once Peak Master Xu finishes his seclusion, tell him I came to see him and that he can visit my Hidden Origin Peak sometime."
The other party nodded in agreement, and then Lu Changzhi got up and left.
An old steed in its stall may still be eager to serve; such a story is certainly a beautiful one.
I won't bother you any longer.
Return to Hidden Origin Peak and enter the Dao Comprehension Formation Stele.
After a night, Qi Zhan's anger and tension subsided somewhat.
Upon seeing Lu Changzhi arrive, he decisively spoke up:
"Your Excellency, are you and that Holy Son Qin Jiuxiao from the same holy land?"
"The Holy Son Qin Jiuxiao?"
Lu Changzhi raised an eyebrow, finding it amusing:
"So this is how you call yourself the Holy Son?"
However, this is quite in line with Qin Jiuxiao's style.
Qi Zhan breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing this.
Judging from this, the two are likely from the same holy site, and probably have a competitive relationship.
If that's the case, then it might be a good thing for me.
As he sat cross-legged, seemingly trying to say something, Lu Changzhi waved his hand and said:
My identity is unimportant.
"Let's get down to business."
Lu Changzhi looked at Qi Zhan:
"So, have you made up your mind? To hire or not to hire?"
Qi Zhan's expression changed.
Here we go again!
What kind of job can you possibly get?
"Your Excellency, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Changzhi interrupted him.
Without further ado, he activated the Imperial Dragon Soul-Suppressing Bell, and a dragon's roar immediately resounded.
Startled, Qi Zhan nearly went mad.
Who is this person?
They won't even let me speak, how can I possibly confess?
Lu Changzhi didn't have many thoughts on this.
This is a good opportunity to properly learn how to use the Imperial Dragon Soul-Suppressing Bell.
After thoroughly ravaging Qi Zhan with the Dragon Soul, Lu Changzhi stopped, satisfied, with a system notification.
Another Exclusive Luck Points has been earned.
With a flash of light, Lu Changzhi's figure vanished.
"I..."
Qi Zhan gritted his teeth.
Even though he's lived for many years, when faced with this kind of emotion, he couldn't help but want to curse out loud.
Who is this person?
Slandering yourself, interrogating yourself—how can you possibly know things you don't even know yourself?!
If such a good thing were true, I would have done it already.
However, he ultimately held back.
When you're under someone's roof, you should first try to find a solution while you still have time.
This junior is annoying, but he can't come every day!
On the other side, Lu Changzhi did not leave the Trial Formation Stele.
While he was at it, he took the opportunity to check on the situation of the Blood Demon Clan.
Um.
It is growing well.
"However, looking at it now, the experience gained seems rather limited."
Lu Changzhi murmured something.
After all, considering the previous spectator task, 100 experience points really isn't enough.
As soon as the voice faded, a message popped up.
It's the same trial mission as before, but this time there's an additional note after the mission description.
"Given the significant effort the host has invested in the Blood Demon Clan, the reward experience will increase as the Blood Demon Clan's population grows. Current experience value per kill: 100."
Lu Changzhi nodded.
That's quite humane.
It seems we can't rush to harvest yet; let it fatten up a bit more.
Xu Kun arrived in the evening.
"Peak Master Xu's seclusion this time was actually so short?"
Lu Changzhi said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Xu Kun coughed lightly and said:
"I did my best, and although I didn't get a lot, I'm still quite satisfied."
Hearing this, Lu Changzhi's expression became somewhat strange, and he tentatively asked:
"Sister in law?"
Xu Kun was taken aback when he heard this.
After pondering the taste, I couldn't help but chuckle to myself:
"Changzhi, you've got the wrong idea, this is a proper seclusion."
"No wonder."
Lu Changzhi laughed heartily:
"I was still thinking, 'Peak Master Xu, why do you tell everyone everything?'"
Xu Kun waved his hand, looked at Lu Changzhi with a hint of emotion, and said:
"Changzhi, it seems you've grown up quite a bit."
Lu Changzhi, as if remembering something, changed the subject and asked:
"What was Peak Master Xu focusing on during his seclusion, because of the previous illusion array?"
Peak Master Xu nodded, while Lu Changzhi raised an eyebrow:
"I never imagined that Peak Master Xu was faking it that day."
No, not at all.
Xu Kun shook his head and said:
"I guess I was lucky. I didn't understand anything at the time, but after going back to sleep, I actually gained something in my dream."
"That's really a good thing."
As Lu Changzhi spoke, he changed the subject and said:
"It's quite a coincidence, I came to see you for something similar."
"Oh?" Xu Kun's expression shifted, and he looked over.
Lu Changzhi raised his hand, took out the pale purple jade talisman, and handed it over:
"I was lucky; I got it from a dream while I was sleeping."
Xu Kun was somewhat surprised. He took the jade talisman and began to sense it.
Then, he looked surprised, took a deep breath, and exclaimed in shock, as if he had found a priceless treasure.
After a long while, he finally regained his composure, and even his voice became somewhat unsettled:
"Changzhi, where did this thing come from?"
Having been obsessed with Dao of Formations for many years, he knew the value of this item better than anyone.
The large number of items, and the fact that they are not all from the same person, can sometimes provide different perspectives for practitioners of Dao of Formations cultivation.
The principle remains the same despite all changes; to understand the principle, one must first observe the myriad changes.
The sheer number of them was enough to shock him.
Secondly, there's the matter of quality.
The lower the level, the more numerous they are, but such formations have extremely limited value.
But the things in this jade talisman are different.
There are quite a few Saint Rank experts among them. With such quality and scale, even Holy Lands might not have such an accumulation of Dao of Formations compared to other forces.
Lu Changzhi remained calm, blinked, and said:
"I got it in my dream, and it was right by my bedside when I woke up."
Upon hearing this, Xu Kun's lips twitched.
But Lu Changzhi sighed softly, looked up, and said:
"I dreamt of my parents; this is what they gave me. I never expected..."
After glancing at the jade talisman, Lu Changzhi sighed:
"It's true."
"Hiss--"
Xu Kun took a deep breath and looked at Lu Changzhi in disbelief:
"They're back?!"
Lu Changzhi's heart stirred slightly.
Judging from this reaction, what's involved here is not simple.
At that moment, Lu Changzhi waved his hand:
"They're busy and can't come back, but they can send me some things. I think this jade talisman is more suitable for the Dharma Form Peak."
Xu Kun remained silent, seemingly lost in thought.
At this moment, Lu Changzhi changed the subject and said with a smile:
"It seems that Peak Master Xu knows my parents."
"I've only heard of some things, I wouldn't say I know anyone." Xu Kun shook his head.
Lu Changzhi's expression shifted. "Tell me about it?"
Xu Kun thought for a moment, looked at Lu Changzhi, and said:
"As their child, you share one thing in common with them."
"Which point?"
"He has deeply grasped the essence of the sect's ancestral teachings and is extremely adept at concealing his abilities," Xu Kun said earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi fell silent.
The way you're saying that the sect leader and the sect's patriarch have been hiding their abilities quite a bit.
"But..."
An idea flashed through Lu Changzhi's mind.
"Has this found a good place to dump the blame?"
After chatting for a while longer, Lu Changzhi confirmed his guess.
Xu Kun's focus was no longer on the origin of the jade talisman or the truthfulness of his claims.
This clearly reveals a problem.
In other words, he implicitly acknowledged that his parents were capable of producing items of this caliber and performing such acts.
"It seems my background isn't so simple after all."
Feeling a surge of emotion, a sudden inspiration struck Lu Changzhi.
"System, what are my parents' specific identities and capabilities?"
Lu Changzhi wondered to himself.
I almost forgot about that.
For things like this, just ask the system directly; it's much easier.
