Huang Jiuzhao: Envious, Drooling, Want It!
I was just about to leave; I'll come back later.
Lu Yuan noticed that two figures were walking towards them from another direction.
"The Huang Clan boy?"
Lu Yuan was clearly quite familiar with the aura of the Huang Clan.
However, his gaze only swept over briefly before settling on the figure to the side.
Another one whose true level and strength he cannot see through.
"Could this be the disciple I mentioned last night?" Lu Yuan's heart stirred.
He remembered very clearly what the other person said last night.
While Lu Yuan was observing the two, Huang Jiuzhao was also talking with Gu Chen.
They became friends after a fight.
The two of them fought from day to night, and now it's daytime again.
They acted as if they had known each other for the entire night.
Simply put, both of them had a great time.
Although there is a difference in their realms, if they maintain the same level of cultivation, neither side is perfect; both have their strengths and weaknesses.
Eight ounces against eight ounces, that's bound to be endlessly interesting.
"It's almost lunchtime now, so this is the best time to come see Master. He'll definitely be awake."
Now that they had met, Gu Chen shared some of his experience, but also offered some reminders:
"However, based on my understanding of my master, he definitely won't agree to spar with you."
Huang Jiuzhao shook his head, his face resolute:
"Your master is a descendant of Senior Lu Yuan, so I must spar with him at least once, no matter what."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a voice rang out from the side:
"Huang Clan boy, you can't just say things like that. He's not my descendant."
Huang Jiuzhao was startled and looked in the direction of the sound.
Then a figure, as tall as a door, stood not far away.
Huang Jiuzhao paused, blinked, and seemed somewhat uncertain.
Gu Chen, standing to the side, raised an eyebrow, noticing the information presented by the system, and was quite surprised.
A powerful expert at the Ninth Layer of Saint Venerable, also known as Lu Yuan —is this... Master's father?
However, this idea only flashed through my mind for a moment.
Gu Chen knew in his heart that the identity of Lu Yuan's son was most likely fake.
I didn't expect to be exposed so soon.
At this moment, Huang Jiuzhao, who was standing to the side, looked at Lu Yuan with a moved expression, as if he had finally confirmed it:
"You, you're Senior Lu?!"
"Not bad." Lu Yuan nodded.
Huang Jiuzhao's eyes immediately lit up.
Even geniuses are human; it's not that geniuses can't have idols.
Now, with his rarely seen idol right in front of him, one can imagine how exciting this must be for Huang Jiuzhao.
For a moment, Huang Jiuzhao was at a loss for words.
What he really wanted was to ask the other person if they could have a friendly spar.
But he was only at the Saint Realm, while the other party had likely already reached the Saint Emperor, so it wasn't appropriate for him to say that.
Asking for guidance would be more appropriate, but it doesn't feel quite right to say that Guiyi.
Huang Jiuzhao, who rarely hesitates in his actions, is now somewhat conflicted when facing Lu Yuan.
At this moment, Lu Changzhi's voice came from the courtyard:
"They're all standing at the door, are they here to freeload a meal?"
Despite saying that, the door was still opened.
Huang Jiuzhao snapped out of his daze and gestured to Lu Yuan:
"Senior, please."
Lu Yuan nodded and went in first.
Huang Jiuzhao and Gu Chen then entered.
Lu Changzhi came out of the house and looked at Lu Yuan, somewhat surprised:
"You're so quick, senior?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan smiled and said:
"Since I'm all alone, a little tidying up will suffice; it won't take much time."
Lu Changzhi nodded, then, as if remembering something, asked:
"Where does the senior live?"
Lu Yuan looked around, then tentatively asked:
"How about you make room for me in a side room?"
"The city is overcrowded these days, and it's too much trouble to travel back and forth if you live too far away."
Lu Changzhi thought for a moment, looked at Gu Chen, and said:
"Why don't you go and stay with him, senior? He lives in the courtyard next door."
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and nodded.
Huang Jiuzhao, who had been somewhat puzzled by the fact that the conversation between Lu Changzhi and Lu Yuan didn't seem like that of a father and son, almost wore his "envy" on his face when he saw Lu Yuan agree to stay in Gu Chen's courtyard.
The other party is actually able to live in the same courtyard as Senior Lu Yuan!
I'm envious, I'm green with envy, I want it!
"By the way," Lu Yuan turned his gaze away from Gu Chen and asked Lu Changzhi, "Is that right?"
"Is he the disciple you mentioned last night?"
Lu Changzhi shook his head:
"He is not."
"He's someone else, but there's something I need your help with, senior."
"Just say it," Lu Yuan said.
Lu Changzhi nodded and said:
"He shares the same physique as your senior and is also a warlike person. I plan to have your senior mentor him for a period of time to help him improve his strength."
"Same physique?" Lu Yuan was somewhat surprised and looked at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen looked at Lu Changzhi nodded slightly. Then Gu Chen activated his physique.
Lu Yuan stepped forward and placed his fingers on Gu Chen's wrist, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
Their physical constitutions are indeed the same, but it seems that this younger person's constitution is better than mine?
He immediately nodded and agreed.
Those with similar constitutions tend to understand each other better, making them the most suitable people to provide guidance.
Huang Jiuzhao listened intently, nearly crying from envy; tears almost streamed down his face.
Living with my idol and receiving personal guidance from him? Wow!
It's hard to describe Huang Jiuzhao's feelings at this moment.
However, despite his cravings, Huang Jiuzhao still paid attention to many things.
Even with outsiders present, the conversation between Lu Changzhi and Lu Yuan didn't sound like that of father and son at all.
Who calls their own father a senior?
Not to mention, Lu Yuan's current attitude is somewhat inconsistent with his expectations of such a powerful person; it seems as if he is spoiling Lu Changzhi.
At that moment, he looked at Lu Changzhi and asked:
"Aren't you Lu Yuan's most beloved son?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately looked over and said:
"This is getting increasingly outrageous. Does it mean I have a bunch of sons?"
Before Lu Changzhi could answer, Lu Yuan continued:
"Of course not. If I had a son like that, I'd practically skip around when I walked, you believe me?"
"Ah?"
The admiration in Lu Yuan's words left Huang Jiuzhao incredulous, and he subconsciously said:
"That senior, he does have..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Yuan seemed to remember something and waved his hand:
"No need to ask any more questions. You only need to know one thing: he is very strong."
As he spoke, Lu Yuan's gaze towards Huang Jiuzhao held a hint of sympathy:
"Judging from your aura, your Huang Clan has surpassed its predecessors. Your achievements will likely surpass those of your Huang Clan ancestor."
"What a pity, you were born in the same era as him."
Huang Jiuzhao's gaze sharpened slightly, but there was a hint of excitement in it:
"So, his strength and talent are also very strong?"
The powerful can inspire admiration and inspire others to surpass them, but they cannot inspire fear.
"Not strong, not strong."
Lu Yuan shook his head, pondered for a moment as if making a calculation, and then said:
"If they're all invincible among their peers, then using strength as a measure is inappropriate."
