"Junior Brother Liu, you are really good!"
Hearing Liu Muchian's words, Xu Wen could only shake his head secretly in his heart.
Originally, for the sake of old friends, saving Lu Zhen and others was the limit he could do, and he would not show up to meet them at all.
It's not that he looks down on mortals, it's that the two parties are already completely different worlds, and there is no need to meet each other anymore.
The last thing a cultivator wants is to be tainted by unreasonable cause and effect, let alone that the other party is involved in a dispute over the succession of the throne.
However, he showed up in the end, not because of the other party's so-called inheritance, but because of the girl Liu Muchian.
The first time he saw her, he felt that she was somewhat similar to Liu Minghe. After asking, it was indeed the case.
Judging from the time, she should have been conceived when the two sent Lu Zhen and others back to the mortal world.
Liu Minghe, I dare not say anything else, but Xu Wen's ability to be merciful and leave seeds behind is unmatched by Xu Wen.
Xu Wen just got rid of his single mother-to-child relationship not long ago, but the other party has several children.
Old friends like Lu Zhen, who had a normal friendship, could be ignored, but Liu Minghe's descendants couldn't be ignored.
He raised his hand and brushed Liu Muxian's forehead, turning the magic power into spiritual energy and injecting it into the girl's forehead. The spiritual energy suddenly trembled slightly.
Able to induce spiritual energy, this girl actually has spiritual roots.
However, it is not surprising that Lu Zhen and Liu Minghe both have spiritual roots. If both parents have spiritual roots, the likelihood of their children having spiritual roots is much greater than the average person.
But the specific spiritual root and its strength cannot be determined. Only a large spiritual measuring platform or her own cultivation can be found.
"Have you taught her the exercises?"
Turning to look at Lu Zhen, Xu Wen asked in a low voice.
Lu Zhenliang nodded quickly and said:
"I have taught her, but she has water spirit roots. The Kuntu Jue I learned before is not suitable for her. I can only teach her some basic breathing techniques!"
The Breathing Technique can only sense spiritual energy and cannot be converted into mana. It is generally used to test spiritual roots.
Of course, there are benefits. Having been refined by spiritual energy for a long time, the energy and spirit must be stronger than ordinary people. No wonder they can stay calm in the battle just now.
As for the land of spiritual energy, although it is difficult to find spiritual energy in ordinary places, it is not completely impossible for the royal family of a country.
How to arrange Liu Muchian?
Xu Wen was thinking in his mind, but Lu Zhen knelt on the ground with a "pop" sound again, raised the silk in his hand high, and said mournfully:
"Senior Brother Xu... No, Chief Xu, I don't know what happened these years, but Qingfeng City has never received any envoys."
"Mu Xian is almost twenty years old. It will be too late if she doesn't practice. I originally planned to take her to the Taibai Bird Road this year, but I never thought that something unexpected happened in the middle school!"
"Please, for Minghe's sake, accept Mu Xian as your disciple, and prevent her from wasting her spiritual roots and wasting her time in the mortal world like me!"
Because of the Xishan ruins, various factions have been secretly fighting each other, and there have been several attacks on each other's envoys. Indeed, no envoys have been sent out in recent years.
Originally, it was not a common thing to receive envoys, but unexpectedly it happened to delay Liu Muchian's journey.
However, it is absolutely impossible for Xu Wen to accept him as his disciple.
The succession of master and apprentice is an extremely important matter on the road to immortality, second only to Taoist companions. Without carefully examining the qualifications and character of the other party, it is impossible to accept a disciple.
Even if the other party is Liu Minghe's daughter, she cannot be excluded.
Xu Wen would not be like Li Xiuning, who muddleheadedly accepted a few disciples and spent a lot of time and energy being their nanny.
Moreover, because of Qiu Yunchang's incident, Xu asked himself that he didn't know where the escape route was, so how could he possibly bring another tow tank with him.
Of course, there was no need to tell Lu Zhen about these things. After thinking for a moment, he said seriously:
"You know, I have wood spiritual roots, and I also practice wood-attribute skills. I am completely at odds with Mu Xian's spiritual roots. I can't guide her in her practice, let alone accept her as a disciple."
"However, since she is the daughter of You and Minghe, I naturally will not stand idle."
"I will teach her a water attribute technique and let her practice it on her own. I will return to Qingfeng City in a while and take her to see Minghe!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhen was immediately disappointed.
She could tell that Xu Wen's so-called discord in martial arts was mostly just a shirk.
It's just a pointer to a monk who has just entered Taoism. How could a foundation-building monk have so little knowledge?
But she was originally an extremely shrewd person. Her royal career was full of intrigues, and she was the best at reading people's hearts.
Knowing that Xu Wen was her biggest support now and that she could never offend her, she immediately said without hesitation:
"Thank you Master Xu!"
While pulling his daughter, he put the silk into the girl's hand and said urgently:
"Why don't you give the silk to the Immortal Master to thank him for protecting you from entering Taoism."
Liu Muxian was a bit like Lu Zhen, a person with a quick mind. He hurriedly raised the silk fabric high and said loudly:
"Thank you, Immortal Master, for protecting the way. This trivial thing will not be taken lightly. I also ask Immortal Master not to dislike it!"
In a world where Taoism manifests its sages, all royal families originate from cultivators, so it is not surprising that some inheritance will be left behind.
It's hard to say how valuable it is. It may be priceless to ordinary people, but to Xu Wen, who has already established a foundation, it may not be worth mentioning.
What Lu Zhen was betting on was not how valuable this thing was, but Xu Wen's character.
Accepting the things was a done deal. With Xu Wen's character, he would definitely not break his promise.
How could Xu Wen not see what the mother and daughter were thinking? He smiled, put away the silk, and whispered:
"You don't need to call me Immortal Master, your father and I are close friends of life and death, you can just call me uncle!"
Lu Zhen's son Zhang Zhiming looked at the piece of silk with some reluctance.
However, Lu Zhen had accumulated a lot of authority in his heart, and he did not dare to object.
Moreover, as a member of the royal family, although he was a little weak, he was not stupid. He also knew that Xu Wen was the only chance for their mother and son to turn around.
At this time, the baby in Lu Zhen's arms began to cry loudly.
After being on the run for so long, with constant hunger and thirst all the way, the child was already starving.
With a wave of his sleeves, all four of them were sucked into the sky by him and headed towards Wanglong Village.
Normally, it would be difficult for a foundation-building monk to fly with one person, but Xu Wen practiced wind-attribute skills and could easily lead several people.
Stopped at the entrance of the village and walked back to Xu's house with a few people.
Seeing Xu Wen suddenly return with an extraordinary temperament woman and several children, Xu Shiyu almost thought that this was Xu Wen's wife outside.
I heard that she was the princess of Qian Kingdom and Xu Wen's old friend. I was also very surprised. It was very lively to make tea and pour water.
It was night, Xu Wen was looking at the silk pieces from Lu Zhen in his room, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
With a sweep of his consciousness, he could see an area of hundreds of feet, so he knew who was visiting.
With a wave of his hand, the door opened automatically. He put down the silk and said in a deep voice:
"Junior sister Lu, please come in!"
Lu Zhen walked in slowly, closed the door, walked slowly to Xu Wen and sat down.
After freshening up, she took off her royal clothes and put on a pair of ordinary clothes, without losing any of her grace and adding a bit of charm.
Coupled with the teachings she has received and the tolerance she has developed over the years, she is both noble and gentle, making people admire and get close to her unconsciously.
Of course, she was not planning to simply seduce Xu Wen, but wanted to use her appearance and grooming to make her next words more influential and convincing.
Looking at her steadily, Xu Wen said nothing.
Lu Zhen lowered her head, as if she was lost in memories, and after a long while she whispered:
"I didn't know that I had Minghe's child at first. Soon after returning to Qianguo, I made an engagement with the third prince..."
Lu Zhen originally came from a family of officials in Qian Kingdom. Although she failed in cultivation, in the eyes of others, her status was still far higher than that of ordinary official women.
Being married to the royal family has no intention of reaching a high level.
Lu Zhen, who was disheartened after returning to the secular world, had no intention of resisting the marriage. After meeting the third prince several times, she settled on it.
However, as her belly grew bigger and bigger a few months later, she realized she was in trouble.
Knowing that it was Liu Minghe's child, she still couldn't completely give up on immortality, so naturally she was unwilling to abort this child.
She insisted on giving birth, even if she broke off her engagement with the third prince.
But the third prince didn't know what kind of psychedelic soup he drank, and he insisted that he would not marry anyone but her.
Originally, as long as both parties agreed and moved faster, the child could be regarded as the third prince. No one could say anything else.
But royal marriage has never been a matter between two people. I don’t know who spread the news.
For a time, the two of them were thrust into the spotlight.
Fortunately, the third prince really loved him and refused to give up even if he wanted to be his father. The two parties eventually got married.
However, after this incident, the third prince's prestige plummeted, and he basically had no chance of becoming Dabao.
According to Lu Zhen, the couple began their careers as Princes of Taiping. However, a few months ago, the old emperor, who had always been in good health, suddenly passed away, and Qianguo, which was originally relatively stable, suddenly fell into a bloody storm.
They, a pair of idle princes who had nothing to do with the world, were also targeted. The third prince was kidnapped by a strange man invited by the eldest prince using Taoism. Lu Zhen herself could only flee in a hurry with her three children.
Although he did not refute, Xu Wen knew that the other party's words must be full of water.
Not to mention anything else, how could an idle prince possess something inherited from the latent country?
It stands to reason that such things are either in the hands of the emperor or the prince, but there is no way they can get them.
"Junior sister Lu told me this, I don't know what you mean?"
Xu Wen asked in a deep voice without worrying about the truth or falsehood of her words.
Lu Zhen was stunned. She didn't expect that her affectionate performance and statement would only get Xu Wen's reaction.
She instantly understood that Xu Wen was no longer the Xu Wen he was before, and could no longer be restrained or moved by ordinary emotions.
No longer hesitating, she immediately changed her strategy. She no longer tried to influence him through twists and turns, but instead directly used benefits to bind him.
Pointing at the inherited silk, Lu Zhen said in a serious voice:
"This silk is only half of the inheritance. The other half of the inheritance is still in the palace. Only my husband knows a place, and I don't even know about it."
"I want to ask my senior brother to help me rescue my husband and support him in ascending to the throne."
"This silk, the spiritual veins in the palace, and the position of Qianguo's national master are my couple's reward. The entire Qianguo will contribute everything to Senior Brother Xu's practice!"
