Chapter 433: Stubborn Lu Xun

The last time mentioned.

In the end, it became the last two times.

"I'm leaving."

A few hours later, Lu Xueqi was dressed and ready to leave.

Only then did she seem to have completely shaken off the aftereffects of the love poison.

Mainly, she had endured it for a bit too long.

Unlike Ran Bing, Lu Xun would meet with Ran Bing every two or three days to fight poison with poison.

"Okay."

Lu Xun hadn't expected that, after Lu Xueqi resolved the love poison, she would voluntarily do that with him.

Does this count as a farewell cannon?

After just two steps, Lu Xueqi seemed to think of something, turned her head to look at Lu Xun: "Qianqian probably really treats you as a brother; she gave you the key to enter the Moonheart Secret Realm. You don't have to acknowledge the Ning family, but you might as well meet her and hear what she has to say."

Moonheart Secret Realm's key?

Is what Lu Xueqi pointed to the thing inside that little pouch?

Lu Xun didn't respond.

Seeing this,

Lu Xueqi sighed inwardly and left the Lu Family Building.

This is the first time,

she left by walking normally.

In the past, every time she left, because she had fought Lu Xun for too long, her gait was unnatural, so she always chose to fly.

This time wasn't too intense, and having long since adapted, she was actually able to walk.

After Lu Xueqi left, Lu Xun found the little pouch Ning Qianqian had given him, opened it, and saw it contained a bronze key and a letter.

Could this key be the Moonheart Secret Realm's key?

Thinking this, Lu Xun moved and caught up with Lu Xueqi.

"Sister Xueqi."

"What's up?"

Lu Xueqi stopped, holding her sword, and calmly looked at Lu Xun.

After the love poison was resolved, her attitude toward Lu Xun didn't change much.

Of course, this is merely superficial.

Perhaps it's precisely because she doesn't want what happened between them to affect the future that she deliberately treats Lu Xun this way.

Sometimes, the more deliberate she is, the more it reveals the problem.

For a girl, how could such a thing possibly be forgotten?

"The things inside, please return them to her."

Lu Xun handed over that little pouch.

"This is the Moonheart Secret Realm's key; training inside grants three times the time—you really don't want it?"

Lu Xueqi was somewhat surprised.

The Moonheart Secret Realm is a very special secret realm.

It is similar to the Earthcore Secret Realm that once existed on Lan Xing; inside, the flow of time is much slower than outside.

However, the Earthcore Secret Realm's time flow was too slow, reaching an astonishing hundred times slower than the outside world.

Inside, a hundred years pass; outside, only one year.

Such a slow time flow led to a series of problems; moreover, the incomplete evolution of the Earthcore Secret Realm caused extra loss of lifespan for those who entered.

Like Fu Lao Yezi and this group of Eight Realms cultivators, each worries about their lifespan—this is the reason.

The Moonheart Secret Realm, however, only recently evolved; inside, the time flow is only three times slower than outside.

This means that cultivating in the Moonheart Secret Realm yields three times more time.

This rate isn't too slow, keeping variables within a certain range; so far, there appears to be no extra loss of lifespan.

On the moon, who knows how many people want this key.

Ning Qianqian expended enormous effort to obtain it, brought it to give to Lu Xun, but Lu Xun didn't want it!

"No."

Lu Xun decisively returned it.

"You take it to her yourself; giving it to me like this, she might not accept it..."

"If she doesn't accept it, just keep it for yourself—that's what I said."

Deep down, Lu Xueqi still leans toward having Lu Xun recognize Ning Qianqian.

So she wants Lu Xun to return it to Ning Qianqian himself.

Unfortunately, Lu Xun's attitude is very firm.

"Alright, I understand; I'll talk to her again."

Seeing Lu Xun so stubborn, Lu Xueqi took it over.

"Thank you."

"Don't thank me; since it started because of me, let it end because of me—goodbye!"

Lu Xueqi put away the little pouch, her flying boat accelerated, shot up into the sky, and soon disappeared from sight.
