Chapter 375

~7 min read 1,223 words

But he's just a poor scholar—where would he get any money?

So his presence earned him the scorn of many.

Including Mother.

She holds Lu Yuan in low regard.

She thinks Lu Yuan is good for nothing.

But since Qin Gu Niang likes him, she forces herself to hold her tongue.

After that, Lu Yuan kept coming back.

Mother also got in the way of their meetings.

But Qin Gu Niang is the future pillar and must inherit her legacy.

So he doesn't want Lu Yuan to marry Qin Gu Niang.

So Mother started to interfere.

After that, Lu Yuan showed up.

Good grief—Lu Yuan hearing this, guessed what came next.

Yes, just from King Qi's attitude, he seems unaware of these matters.

On the contrary, others understand it very well.

Wait?

Why does he feel the people in this secret realm are so lifelike?

As if they were real people.

Could it be his own illusion?

Lu Yuan stroked his chin, thinking.

King Qi thought Lu Yuan was just being silent.

He completely missed Lu Yuan's grim expression.

It wasn't him who said that.

He really didn't think it was good.

He inexplicably took the blame.

And he's developed feelings for Qin Gu Niang?

Good grief, these things must not be known by the two at home.

Otherwise, he'd really get flayed alive.

The door creaked open.

Lu Yi barged in, gritting his teeth, aiming to strike Qin Yu.

Qin Yu hastily retreated; seeing Lu Yi, he thought it was reinforcements.

He immediately narrowed his eyes and fiercely slashed at Lu Yi.

He didn't know Lu Yi's identity; he only knew Lu Yuan had saved him, and he vowed to guard this place to the death.

Swish

The two weapons collided.

Qin Yu wielded a fan made of strange material, razor‑sharp.

As for Lu Yi, he wielded a long blade.

The blade was a classic samurai sword.

But the way he held the knife resembled the swordsmanship of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Qin Yu slightly furrowed his brow.

Are you from the Great Qin Dynasty?

Qin Yu asked.

Lu Yi saw Qin Yu stop.

He immediately turned to Qin Yu, sneering, "What does this have to do with you?"

Yes, if you want to find Mr. Lu Yuan, you'll have to wait.

He's inside.

"Huh?" Lu Yi seemed to catch the hidden meaning in Qin Yu's words and immediately asked his master what had happened.

Thus, Qin Yu recounted everything that had just happened in detail.

Lu Yi???

So you just watched your master go in?

There's no way—I can't get in.

That makes sense!

Lu Yi stepped forward, enduring the pain, trying to force it open.

He actually could have forced his way in.

But this aura was intense, burning his skin.

It was extremely uncomfortable.

Lu Yi swallowed.

Feeling miserable, he just wanted to leave.

But he still gritted his teeth and pressed on.

Until even moving an inch becomes difficult.

Qin Yu seems to have understood Lu Yi's difficulty.

He slightly raises his eyebrows.

"Are you from Lu Bei?"

"Huh?"

Lu Yi lifts his head, looks at Qin Yu, his eyes full of confusion.

How does he know his identity?

He seems to have never told Qin Yu his identity?!

"I am well acquainted with the Lu Bei Organization, because... I was once a member."

"Once?" Lu Yi seems to have thought of something, immediately lifts his head to look at Qin Yu.

His eyes are full of suspicion and vigilance.

Being a former member is enough to show that Qin Yu's strength is great.

Especially strong.

Those who were once of Lu Bei are not ordinary mortals; they are people with strong killing intent.

They are ferocious and brutal; if not for the current head of Lu Bei forcibly restoring order, many would have died.

He seems to understand Lu Yi's gaze.

Qin Yu lets out a cold laugh.

"Indeed, this bunch of beasts has brainwashed you a lot?"

"What do you mean?"

"Do you really think that Lu Bei's major reshuffle is to deal with those vicious people?"

Qin Yu lets out a cold laugh, his voice full of contempt.

"Actually, it's not; the reason for their deaths is entirely because of the current ruler of Lu Bei!"

After Qin Yu finished speaking, Lu Yi's expression changed instantly.

The weapon points directly high at Qin Yu.

As if, if Qin Yu says anything outrageously rebellious, he will strike and kill the other party.

Qin Yu lets out a cold shout.

"How? Can't we even talk about what they did?"

"I can tell you directly! Those enemies all died at the hands of the ruler!"

"Their goal is simply to eliminate foreigners!"

"Foreigners?!" Lu Yi is surprised; he actually had this guess.

But, every time he thinks about this,

Lu Yi will forcibly overturn it.

You ask why?

Lu Yuan says, no reason.

He feels it's impossible, a subconscious feeling of impossibility.

He has seen the ruler of Lu Bei several times; he feels this person is extremely cultivated.

It is impossible for a decision to massacre other participants to appear.

Of course, he also feels the other side is pretending.

From the people he has ordered to be cultivated,

Including him, and other brothers and sisters, they are not skilled.

Moreover, their strength is extremely great.

Especially the fourteenth, deeply favored by 【father】.

"Think carefully: if what I say is false, why would I lie to you?"

"What is my purpose?"

"Purpose?" Lu Yi looks at Qin Yu in surprise, it makes sense.

If Qin Yu wants to sow discord between him and the organization?

"No, I don't believe you, if you try to sow discord between us?"

"Impossible."

Qin Yu shakes his head.

"Impossible, I have no need to sow discord."

"If you think I have this ability..."

"You do!" Lu Yi directly cuts off Qin Yu's words.

He certainly does; if he becomes Lu Yuan's subordinate, he feels he has a chance.

After all, Lu Yuan is very strong, and is also a certain official of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Yes, at this time Lu Yi still thinks Lu Yuan is a person of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu slightly raises his eyebrows.

"Really?"

He was indeed correct in his guess; Lu Yuan's status in the Great Zhou Dynasty is not simple.

Even his strength is this strong.

He must be a person of great status and strength!

I don't know either, how is his family?

……

In another place, Wang An was poking at the food in his hand.

Wang Qingyang was sitting in a tree, checking the surroundings.

"Speaking of which, Senior Lu Yuan, why hasn't he returned yet?"

Wang Qingyang said with a hint of resentment: "He won't have run into danger, will he?"

Wang An lifted his head, glanced at Wang Qingyang, then lowered his head and began to fiddle with his own food.

While fiddling, he said speechlessly: "Can't you say something nice?"

"Senior Lu Yuan will definitely skin you alive!"

"Ah, I'm just worried." Wang Qingyang said, raising his hand.

A helpless look.

"Speaking of which, why hasn't Lu Yi returned yet?"

"Are you talking about me?"

Just as Wang Qingyang finished speaking, Lu Yi appeared behind the two, looking at them. (End of chapter)
