“Eldest Young Master probably won’t be able to come recently.”

Lu Xiaoran raised his eyebrows slightly.

“What does this mean?”

“Young Master, during the two years you were in seclusion, many changes happened to the Lu family. The other families had quite a lot of friction with the Lu family.”

“Didn’t you guys say that my grandfather’s cultivation far exceeds theirs? How dare they provoke my grandfather?”

Steward Lu sighed slightly.

“I don’t know what’s going on, but these people’s cultivation levels have become much stronger recently. The cultivation levels of the patriarchs of the few families are actually catching up to the old master. Although they’re still a distance away from the old master, the distance has already decreased a lot. The old master won’t be able to gain much advantage against them.”

Lu Xiaoran’s expression was somewhat solemn.

“Got it. You can leave first.”

“Yes.”

After Steward Lu left, Lu Xiaoran began to lower his head and ponder.

“Before I came to the Lu family, I didn’t see any trouble in the Lu family. Now that I’m here, something like this has happened. Could it be that I have bad luck? Or could it be that after killing so many hot shots, I’ve also become a hot shot in the end? Have I been infected by their characteristics of causing death wherever I go?”

Lu Xiaoran definitely did not believe that this was a coincidence. The patriarchs of the few families had all been beaten up by Old Master Lu previously. However, now, their strength was able to approach Old Master Lu’s in such a short period of time.

It would be fine if there were only one or two of them, but it was somewhat abnormal for all of them to increase.

Perhaps, he would even have to step in in the end. Otherwise, the Lu family would definitely be destroyed.

Lu Xiaoran could not help but sigh deeply. Why was it so difficult to hide and cultivate?

Why couldn’t the heavens just spare him from all this trouble.

He only wanted to cultivate well alone. Did the heavens think that he was bored and wanted to give him some excitement and surprise?

However, before this matter was confirmed, Lu Xiaoran could not think too much.

After all, what if everything turned out to be fine in the end?

It would be best if Old Master Lu could step in and kill them. In that case, he would not have to appear and could continue to hide and cultivate.

“Amitabha, hallelujah, ho… God bless me. Although I, Lu Xiaoran, am a little bad and have killed many people, please protect me on the account that I’m single. Amen.”

Lu Xiaoran pressed his palms together and bowed to the surroundings. Then, he walked back to his small courtyard and casually roasted a few Golden Luck Dragons to increase his luck.

In order to ensure that his luck could be better, he even roasted a strengthened version of the Golden Luck Dragon.

It had to be said that the strengthened version of the Golden Luck Dragon was indeed impressive. Its meat was more chewy and extremely muscular. If one had to compare, ordinary Golden Luck Dragons were like fish that would melt in one’s mouth, and the other was like beef with muscles.

Although they all tasted like seafood, the chewiness and texture were different.

Moreover, to be honest, the strengthened version of the Golden Luck Dragon was more suitable for barbecue.

After eating a few Golden Luck Dragons, Wang Cai’s voice sounded from Lu Xiaoran’s body.

“Master, Master, did you miss me?”

In the next moment, Wang Cai immediately transformed into its human body and appeared in front of Lu Xiaoran.

“You’re finally out.”

Lu Xiaoran said, “Let me ask you. Did you wake up when I was cultivating?”

“No, I didn’t wake up. I’ve been meditating to evolve and improve myself.”

Lu Xiaoran was somewhat suspicious.

“Really?”

“Of course it’s true. I swear.”

Lu Xiaoran looked carefully at its expression and it did not seem to be lying.

However, he could not use common sense to deduce this Wang Cai’s behavior. After all, it was still a system and its strength was equal to his. It was still very easy for it to hide its expression.

“Then do you have white fur?”

“Aiya, you’re so annoying, Master. How could I have white hair? That’s only when I return to my dog form. However, I’m in my human form now, so I’m exactly the same as a human girl. My hair is all black now.”

“Really?”

“Of course it’s true. Master, if you don’t believe me, you can take a look.”

Seeing that Wang Cai was about to lift its skirt, Lu Xiaoran hurriedly turned around and waved his hand.

“Alright, alright, I believe you.”

The corner of Wang Cai’s mouth revealed an imperceptible smile.

Because Lu Xiaoran had turned his head away, he did not notice.

“Alright, let’s get down to business. You’ve already advanced, so you should have become stronger, right? Can the disciples sense it?”

“I can’t sense all of them for the time being, but I can already sense that the closest one is Zhuge Ziqiong.”

“Oh? Show me her information panel?”

“Alright.”

Wang Cai quickly generated Zhuge Ziqiong’s information panel. Her cultivation had already broken through to the third level of the God Creation Realm. She had a rather good cultivation.

After all, Zhuge Ziqiong had only been in the Divine World for a few years.

However, from Zhuge Ziqiong’s cultivation, her cultivation speed seemed to be approaching his own.

Because Lu Xiaoran’s cultivation had the combined cultivation of a portion of the disciples, he was able to reach the Ten Domain Martial God Realm.

If not for the combined cultivation of his disciples, he should also only be able to reach the God Creation Realm and above, slightly more than Zhuge Ziqiong.

After all, in terms of talent, none of his disciples could compare to him.

However, Zhuge Ziqiong had actually increased to the third level of the God Creation Realm and was almost approaching his ordinary cultivation state.

Could it be that… she was absorbing divine blood crazily?

Lu Xiaoran thought of his little disciple’s cute little canine teeth and could not help but tremble.

Forget it, he did not think too much.

“Since you can already sense her, you should be able to use Soul Guidance, right?”

“Yes, Master. I’ll use Soul Guidance to bring her here now.”

Wang Cai quickly used Soul Guidance.

Then, Lu Xiaoran began to receive the gift boxes and open them.

He wanted to see if there was anything better.

Profound soul x12345.

Indeed, the profound soul had begun to come in bulk.

Profound formation—Immortal Slaying Sword Formation x1.

The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation was a profound formation that was extremely firm and powerful. Once it was used, it was difficult to tell whether one or not would die. It was incomparably dangerous and could be used carefully.

“Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, isn’t this just a profound array formation? Isn’t this the array formation of that very impressive Sect Master ?”

“No, Master. This is only a formation shadow and not the true Immortal Slaying Sword Formation. The true Immortal Slaying Sword Formation is formed with the four Immortal Slaying Swords. This formation shadow is only an imitation and is not as powerful as the true Immortal Slaying Sword Formation. However, it’s already very powerful in this world.”

“I see.”

Lu Xiaoran nodded and continued to open the gift box.

Profound level Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon x1.

Profound Gautama Divine Palm x1.

Profound Blood Fiend Demon Art x1.

Profound Nine Yellow River Formation x1.

Profound Immortal Blood Pill x10.

Profound Soul Subduing Melody x1.

Profound Soul Burial Song x1.

…

He basically did not even have any divine techniques. They were all profound techniques! It could be seen that Wang Cai was really becoming more and more awesome.

After opening so many good things, Lu Xiaoran heaved a sigh of relief.

He had obtained many good things again. It seemed that he would be busy for a while.

With his current cultivation, he could already create two avatars. In this way, it was equivalent to having three people cultivating at the same time. Compared to before, the cultivation speed had increased by a lot.

Coupled with the enhancement of the Immortal Blood Pill, Lu Xiaoran’s cultivation increased greatly again.

In this way, in less than a year, Lu Xiaoran’s strength increased a lot again. He took the opportunity to break through to the Ten Domain Martial God Realm and reached the Hundred Domain Battle God Realm. Moreover, he was already at the fifth level of the Hundred Domain Battle God Realm.

It seemed that according to this situation, it should not be a problem for him to break through to the Immortal God Emperor Realm in five years.

Unfortunately, the effect of the first Immortal Blood Pill was the best. After taking too many, the effect was not very big and even gradually became ineffective.

Therefore, Lu Xiaoran could not expect a great increase in his cultivation just by using the Immortal Blood Pill.

He planned to wait for Zhuge Ziqiong to come before refining the immortal blood in the Immortal Blood Pill in reverse. Then, it would feed it to Zhuge Ziqiong. In this way, Zhuge Ziqiong’s cultivation should increase faster and faster.

His cultivation would also increase even faster.

Perfect.

Other than cultivating, Lu Xiaoran also appropriately increased the might of his Dharma treasure.

He was too weak. He had been in the Divine World for almost four to five years and had only broken through to the Hundred Domain Battle God Realm. He was really too trashy.

At this rate, if he really encountered a big shot, he would die.

The speed of one’s cultivation was destined and could not be achieved overnight.

However, if he obtained a Dharma treasure in advance, it could greatly increase Lu Xiaoran’s true combat strength.

If there was really no other way, he could also use it to self-destruct. It was really a necessary item for killing and robbing.

Lu Xiaoran had strengthened many profound weapons.

For example, when he opened the Exquisite Pagoda previously, it was originally only an ordinary mid-grade God Realm item. However, now that Lu Xiaoran had upgraded it to the profound level, its name had also become the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

It was mainly used to trap the enemy.

It could be compared to the Mountain and River State Painting.

However, the difference between the two was that there were environments and elements in the Mountain and River State Painting. On the other hand, the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was only an empty box with nothing inside.

Lu Xiaoran thought for a moment and extracted many array formation rules before engraving them in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

For example, he stuffed in the Eight Trigrams Sky Sealing Formation, the Primordial Dragon Formation, the Starfall Emperor Formation, and various other array formations.

In this way, the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda had various attack abilities.

He did the same for the other Dharma treasures.

However, after Lu Xiaoran finished doing all of this, another year had passed and Zhuge Ziqiong had not arrived at the Lu family residence.

“This is really strange. Logically speaking, she should have arrived long ago. After all, it’s been so long.”

Wang Cai, open the activity information of those disciples for me.
