Review

"That's roughly how my audience with that being in the Purple Mansion went today..."

"So, let's do a proper review together--"

Not long after, Punk Lü Yuan, Primordial Spirit returned to his body after being released from the Bright Yang Tower by Li Yelan, did not choose to open his eyes immediately.

Instead, he directly summoned the Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan into his consciousness space.

He first asked the Immortal Book about his doubts, but received no answer.

Then, he gave a brief and appropriate account of what had just happened to the Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan had been listening attentively.

Finally, he said the words above.

However, before they began to review their actions, Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan raised his hand.

He rubbed his temples, momentarily unsure whether Punk Lü Yuan was lying to him.

"Wait a minute, I'll ask again."

"You mean, because within the giant corporation you're in, the Fire Virtue will soon rise—"

"So, that's why you, who made your choice under the guidance of the Immortal Book, are so highly regarded by that Purple Mansion?"

The Punk Lü Yuan, who was being questioned, was somewhat puzzled. "That's right... Didn't I explain things clearly enough just now?"

"Don't you know the advice the Immortal Book gave me that day?"

Seeing how serious he was and how he never showed any sign of guilt, Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan shook his head slightly.

"Of course I know, so I'm not actually questioning that."

"I repeat the truth of this statement just to see if you have any guilty conscience."

"Make sure your other experiences aren't a joke to me."

"So, judging from your current appearance, and considering how earnestly you inquired about the Immortal Book as soon as you came in, is this really true?"

"Did that Purple Mansion Great True Person really lay hands on you and make suggestive remarks, just as you said?"

Punk Lü Yuan finally understood what he meant; wasn't this a direct questioning of his charm and looks?

Therefore, his face darkened instantly.

Then, he also forgot about the debriefing, his face darkened, and he suddenly lunged forward, wrestling with Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan.

"What do you mean?"

"What, does it sound unbelievable that I've been chosen by Purple Mansion True Person?"

Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan has now reached the Embryonic Breathing Twelfth Layer and is about to reach perfection. It will only be a matter of time before he enters the Qi Refinement.

Therefore, Punk Lü Yuan's level poses a limited threat to him.

Frankly speaking, they're not necessarily much better than mosquitoes.

So he easily blocked all the attacks with one hand while quietly explaining the rationale behind his doubts.

"Let alone me, anyone would find it unbelievable to hear such a thing..."

"After all, you're only eight years old—"

"Besides, she's a real True Person, after all. You may be somewhat attractive, but she wouldn't do something like this, would she?"

Punk Lü Yuan's face darkened even more. "What do you mean by 'having some looks'?"

"How can you say something like that against your conscience when I'm so incredibly handsome and dashing?"

Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan sighed, "I only said that because I was too ashamed to go against my conscience."

Clearly, he still felt that although Punk Lü Yuan had already begun to show his talent.

But he's not quite at the level of being so handsome that he's earth-shattering and could make even Purple Mansion Great True Person fall in love at first sight.

Only someone as narcissistic as this would deliberately ignore something so illogical.

Of course, it might not necessarily be narcissism; it's more likely that he's getting revenge for teasing him with the "Acting Method last time.

That's why I'm deliberately keeping it a secret from myself.

"Didn't you want to do a debriefing?" At this point, Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan suddenly blocked Punk Lü Yuan's head, preventing him from advancing any further.

"Let's start from this point and first determine why she's behaving so unusually."

Upon hearing this, Punk Lü Yuan finally stopped, but his words still carried a hint of indignation:

"What's unusual? Everyone loves me, flowers bloom for me, and cars get flat tires just by looking at me! It's perfectly normal!"

Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan finally couldn't take it anymore and punched him in the stomach:

"Stop being serious. We're discussing a very serious issue right now."

The fact that the Immortal Book didn't give you a direct answer already speaks volumes.

His punch wasn't actually that hard.

But Punk Lü Yuan seemed to have been jolted awake by a punch, looking at him helplessly.

"Can't you let me fantasize a little? What if I really am stuck with a fantasy-cultivating punk story like Gara Gemu?"

Punk Lü Yuan was the first to realize that something was amiss; he even asked Immortal Book about it as soon as he returned.

How could I not know there was a problem?

And this was the first thing he originally planned to review—

What he did just now was simply because he had already guessed something, but was deliberately keeping it a secret from Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan.

Why did he play tricks on me like that during the last discussion about Acting Method?

Seeing that he had finally returned to normal, Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan asked seriously, "We can talk about fantasy later..."

"Well, given your personality, keeping me in suspense like that, do you already have some initial guesses and ideas?"

Upon hearing this, Punk Lü Yuan snapped his fingers, "You guessed right, but there's no reward for you--"

Previously, I was facing a great True Person, which put me under immense pressure, and I didn't have time to think.

That's why Punk Lü Yuan couldn't understand the cause and effect for a while.

But once he calmed down, his inner demons kicked in, and the most likely guess came to mind.

"Three possibilities." Without elaborating, the Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan, who was concentrating intently, heard Punk Lü Yuan say this so calmly, and then extended three fingers with his right hand.

He first withdrew his middle finger. "First, either we're closely related by blood, like you and Liu Bang— "

"However, I don't really agree with that. You weren't there, so you don't know how strange her gaze was towards me..."

"Excuse my bluntness, but that was definitely not the look you give a relative."

"If I had to describe it, looking back now, that look in my eyes was practically like I wanted to eat them up."

After saying that, he slowly lowered his ring finger. "Secondly, either she has some connection to my biological parents whom I've never met—"

"Because she treated me with no sense of unfamiliarity or distance, neither in her actions nor in her words."

"Do you understand? It's like everything is happening naturally, logically, and as if that's how she's supposed to interact with me."

"Just like between you and me."

"All of this proves that she knows me, but only one side of her knows me."

"And she knows me, pays attention to me, understands me, and logically speaking, her behavior couldn't have developed overnight—"

"So I think she might have some connection to my biological parents, otherwise, before I was diagnosed with Pseudo Spirit Root, what did I do to deserve her attention?"

"Of course, there's one last possibility, which I'm not sure about, but I think is perhaps the most reasonable guess."

As Ancient Cultivator Lü Yuan frowned, Punk Lü Yuan slowly lowered his last little finger.

Then, he said only three words, but they made the atmosphere subtly awkward.

Those three words are...

"Tiansuzi"—"Punk Lü Yuan said calmly, without the slightest worry.
