Chapter 545: Chapter 261: The Origin of Tagging Along – 2

In the face of True Person Anqiu’s furious questioning, Lu Yuan remained calm and composed, saying leisurely, “As for whether your esteemed sect wants to seek revenge…”

At this point, he looked at True Person Anqiu, and with a chilling tone, said, “Fellow Daoist, are you implying that you don’t want to leave here alive by saying this in front of me?”

As soon as the words fell, Lu Yuan’s powerful aura was revealed without reservation. A powerful divine sense enveloped True Person Anqiu from all directions.

The immense pressure instantly dissipated most of the anger in True Person Anqiu’s heart.

Only then did he realize that the person before him was an Immortal cultivator who had condensed spiritual power, and in terms of cultivation, was no worse than their sect master.

It would be foolish for him to threaten retaliation at this moment, lest Lu Yuan impulsively kills him in anger.

To lose an arm first and then clash with the Dan Ding Path would be truly wronged.

Realizing his situation, True Person Anqiu was suddenly frightened, sweating profusely, and did not dare to say any more threatening words.

‘Wait, condensed spiritual power in his cultivation!’

In his astonishment, True Person Anqiu sensed the terrifying divine sense around him but instantly reacted, and a hint of surprise suddenly rose in his heart.

That’s right.

Without cultivating the Taiping Dao Book, how could he have such strength?

Without cultivating the Taiping Dao Book and having no techniques, and without the immortal spirit qi, where did he cultivate this level of power?

‘Was Lu Yuan’s words just now meant to deceive me? It seems that he was angered by my inquiry about his life and death, so he deceived me with these words.’

With these thoughts, True Person Anqiu suppressed his fear and asked, “Your Highness claims that you have never cultivated the Taiping Dao Book. However, how do you explain this divine sense and the vast magic power on your body?

Without cultivating the Taiping Dao Book, without drawing energy from the Heavenly Pillars, and without a Cave World, how could Your Highness achieve this level of magical power?

I know that I am not very likable in front of Your Highness.

But Your Highness wouldn’t deceive me like this, would you?”

After speaking, he looked at Lu Yuan with a stern and fearless expression, full of inquiry.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but laugh.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, even though they had torn their faces apart, True Person Anqiu still hadn’t given up hope.

Well then.

Since it was so, it was time to show the true evidence and make True Person Anqiu completely despair.

“How did I cultivate?”

Lu Yuan said a sentence and then reached into his bosom, took out an object, shook it in front of True Person Anqiu, and threw it over, “Fellow Daoist Anqiu, do you recognize this?”

Seeing this, True Person Anqiu hurriedly caught it and looked at it intently.

When he saw what it was, his eyes couldn’t help but widen in shock, and he exclaimed, “Storage Spirit Jade!”

Yes, as a disciple of a great sect, True Person Anqiu naturally had the insight to recognize it.

After a brief investigation and sensing the spiritual energy in the jade, he quickly recognized the origin of the object.

When he detected the remaining spiritual energy in the jade and its storage capacity, his heart sank completely.

That was because the amount of spiritual energy that could be stored in this spirit jade was incredibly large, enough for a person to cultivate up to the level of condensing spiritual power.

Given the current amount of remaining spiritual energy, it seemed that this King of Chu had begun cultivating immortal techniques quite early, and even if he hadn’t yet condensed spiritual power, he wasn’t far off.

Damn it! Damn it!

A surge of resentment and jealousy suddenly rose in True Person Anqiu’s heart.

He resented that his sect’s plan had truly failed, and that he had become a laughingstock.

Moreover, he was jealous of Lu Yuan for having such an opportunity and chance to obtain such a spiritual jade.

Even as a disciple of a great sect, he did not have such fortune.

But how could an ordinary person, like Lu Yuan, possess such a treasure?

Thinking about this, he looked up at Lu Yuan and said through gritted teeth, “You’ve hidden it so well, Your Highness. Clearly, you are already a cultivator, yet you’ve kept it hidden and left no trace.

It’s no wonder that you don’t value the Taiping Dao Book. With such opportunities, I wouldn’t want to cultivate that short-lived technique either.

However, there’s one thing I want to ask Your Highness for clarification.

Where did you get this jade?

When I met with you in Ziyun Dao, were you already a cultivator?”

True Person Anqiu wanted to figure out the origin of this opportunity, as well as when Lu Yuan started to deceive him.

Otherwise, even if he went back or died here, his heart would not be at peace.

As for this matter, Lu Yuan, who wanted to completely cut off ties and find an excuse to protect himself, would naturally satisfy him.

“There’s a reason for the origin of this jade.”

Lu Yuan laughed and glanced at the elder Daoist, then slowly said, “Fellow Daoist Anqiu, have you ever heard of Sun Qingyi, Sun Zhenren?”

“Sun Qingyi?” Upon hearing this name, True Person Anqiu was stunned for a moment, then furrowed his brows in thought. After a short while, his eyes showed shock, “The Sun Qingyi who, a hundred years ago, obtained the ancient Wind and Thunder Path inheritance and condensed the spiritual power as a rogue cultivator? You got his inheritance?”

“Indeed.” Lu Yuan nodded and then laughed, “Fellow Daoist, do you know the surname and name of the right minister in my court?”

Hearing this question, True Person Anqiu thought about it and realized, “Right Minister Sun Siwen. That’s right, I remember Sun Qingyi was from Yuzhang Prefecture, and it’s only natural that he left behind descendants there.

And you are also from Yuzhang, so it’s possible that you got this immortal opportunity from his descendants.

So that’s how it is, that’s how it all was.”

Having figured it all out, he wasn’t confused anymore.

True Person Anqiu had no more doubts about the origin of Lu Yuan’s Immortal Technique and Immortal Spirit Qi.

A hundred years ago, that Sun Qingyi, True Person Sun, had cultivated spiritual power as a rogue cultivator, causing quite a stir in the Immortal Cultivation World of the Nine Provinces.
