Chapter 163 This must not be spread.
"She's flying... Is she flying through the air? The person who came is actually a Saint-level expert!!"
boom! !
As the flames fell to the ground, Hu Yanwei, who had regained his youth, emerged from the flames.
"Such a beauty exists in the world?!"
"A Saint-level expert, and such a beautiful woman at that!"
"..."
Guests who were near the accounting office couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"Wait, look!"
At this moment, a sharp-eyed observer noticed the two enormous crystals that Hu Yanwei was holding aloft with her soul power and exclaimed in surprise, "...What are those things she's holding in her hands!?"
Hey.
Two enormous, bright purple crystals were slowly lowered.
The arrival of this Saint-level expert attracted the attention of all forces, and they were all greatly alarmed.
"Ms. Huyanwei, here are two top-grade Sky-Splitting Crystals!"
Upon hearing this, both Lü Fengxian's lips twitched simultaneously. "Sky-Splitting Crystal? Is this the grand gift you were talking about? This is far too 'valuable'! I'm so poor I'm practically broke, this is all I have left..."
"Space-Crystallizing Crystal?!"
This is a rare material used to make storage talismans…
"Truly worthy of being a Saint-level expert... such a grand gesture... it's truly astonishing!"
"etc…
Another Saint-level expert has arrived... Does that mean the Lü family now has two Saint-level experts and one God-level expert on their side?
"The Lü family now is arguably the most powerful family in the Tiandu Kingdom..."
"Who knows? What if the royal family is hiding a god-level ancestor?"
"Don't be ridiculous. If there really was such an ancestor, the empire wouldn't have split up..."
Discussions rose and fell, and the guests' attitude towards the Lü family was elevated to a new level.
"Huyan Wei?!" Eunuch Lin's expression changed. "How could this be... It's a pity... I originally wanted to observe the situation and use them to probe the strength of the Lü family, but now it seems that won't work..."
"Hiss..." He gasped, thinking to himself, "First it was the Samarin family of the Lower Domain Kingdom, then the Saint-level of the Huyan family, could the Lü family... really have 'treasonous intentions'?"
Why go through all this trouble when you already possess god-level combat power...?
No, things aren't as simple as they seem on the surface. Perhaps 'Demigod Lü' is really an imposter, or perhaps that divine aura is just a sophisticated illusion...
Is it possible that His Majesty is not overthinking things, or that I have failed to consider them thoroughly?
'Lü Fengxian' looked at Lord Bao with a slight smile, 'Now we have two Saint-level experts on our side, what do you mean?'
"what?!"
All the high-ranking officials in red robes were taken aback.
Kaka!
Song Bingchuan cracked his knuckles and grinned crookedly, "Hey, you surnamed Bao, how about you call out your Saint-level ancestor from the Bao family to play with us? I promise my brother won't get involved."
Lord Yang: "Hiss..."
Lord Bao: "Hiss..."
Lord Ruan: "Hiss..."
Lord Qu: "Hiss..."
Apart from Lord Shen from the Ministry of Works and Lord Shangguan from the Arsenal, all the other officials gasped in shock.
"There are two Fengxian brothers?" Shangguan Yinqin, hiding nearby, looked on in astonishment. "And one of them seems lifeless, like a 'dead person'..."
Her soft murmur was heard by Xiaoju beside her.
Immediately, the latter scratched his head and asked, "Miss, I feel that these two sons-in-law of Fengxian are exactly the same. How did you see the difference?"
"Because I've shared intimate moments with Brother Fengxian, I'm very familiar with his scent. The one holding the imperial edict is Brother Fengxian, and the other one must be the dying ancestor of the Lü family..."
He paused for a moment, then added, "I just can't understand why they all look exactly alike."
"It's probably inherited from a previous generation," Xiaoju said. "It's not that strange to look exactly like someone from your ancestor, is it? You can't have two bodies, can you?"
“That’s true.” Shangguan Yinqin nodded, then asked, “Xiaoju, do you think we should go to the accounting office to register the congratulatory gift?”
“That wouldn’t be good, would it? One of your uncles is right here. If we register, wouldn’t we miss the fact that you traveled without permission?” Xiaoju thought for a moment. “Besides, Miss, you haven’t prepared a gift.”
Shangguan Yinqin: ヾ(≧へ≦)〃
"Humph…"
Under the shocked gazes of everyone, Hu Yanwei gracefully walked to Lü Fengxian's side, his attitude making it all too clear that he had not simply been invited to the banquet.
"Why are you resorting to that [body outside body] thing?" Hu Yanwei secretly transmitted his voice.
"!!!" Lu Fengxian exclaimed in surprise, "How did you figure that out?"
“That body lacks vitality. I can tell at a glance that this is an external body you created using your remains. This aura is very similar to the spiritual pearl incarnation of our Huyan clan.”
She paused for a moment, then asked, "So... you took over your offspring's body through [secret techniques]?"
It seems that Hu Yanwei is still convinced that Lü Fengxian is the same person as 'Lü Fengxian'...
Perhaps it's because they're unwilling to acknowledge a certain cruel truth.
Since that was the case, Lü Fengxian had no choice but to go along with her idea and continue speaking:
"Wrong. If a person were to seize the body of their own offspring just to survive, wouldn't that make them worse than pigs or dogs? I would never do such a thing..."
I merely used [secret techniques] to create a clone of a young body, then transferred my [soul] into this vibrant body, thus giving myself a second chance at life.
He paused, then said, "This matter must never be spread; you must keep it buried in your heart."
"I see."
After saying that, the two ended their secret telepathic communication.
"May I ask, Your Excellency, is it the ancestor of the Huyan clan, the person destined to be the Star Soul General [Nezha] – Lady Huyan Wei?" Eunuch Lin bowed and stepped forward, cold sweat dripping from his face.
"Ah."
Hu Yanwei simply responded with a faint sound, then turned his head and walked towards Lü Fengxian.
“Um…Ms. Huyanwei, our family…” Eunuch Lin called out.
However, Hu Yanwei ignored him and instead congratulated Lü Fengxian on his own.
"Young Master Lü, congratulations on your honor. This is just a small gift, nothing more..."
At the same time, he transmitted a message: "Brother Lü, thank you for the gift of the pill. The Huyan family will remember this kindness. As long as we do not cross the line, the Huyan family will fully support all your actions."
She paused, then added, "Whatever you plan to do, I will personally stand by your side."
"Even if many people see me as a 'sinner'?" Lü Fengxian asked telepathically.
Hu Yanwei replied firmly, "Even if many people see me as a 'sinner'!"
Immediately afterward, she asked telepathically, "I'm very curious, how did you manage to become a high-level alchemist after being 'reborn'? After all, alchemists are few and far between in the entire Eastern Continent..."
In nearly a century, I've never seen my elder brother possess such extraordinary skills; I'm incredibly curious.
Lu Fengxian thought for a moment and replied telepathically, "Well, I can't really explain it. After all, the opportunities in secret realms are incredibly diverse, and it's not surprising that someone could comprehend alchemy..."
"Brother Lü is truly blessed; I envy him."
Meanwhile, on the surface...
“Senior Huyan, you are too kind,” Lü Fengxian said humbly. “Your presence alone is enough to make my humble abode shine with honor…”
