Zhou Qing was a bit puzzled. Both of them were fox spirits, but how could their temperants be so different?
However, it seed that Grand Uncle had ntioned that Master Lu was possibly suppressing her breakthrough to the Spirit Severing Realm.
Perhaps she had already touched the edge of the Demon Emperor’s power, thus she could so perfectly conceal her Demon Race identity.
"What exactly is going on?" Zhou Qing asked again, steadying himself.
Lu Yaoyao then described everything she had seen to Zhou Qing in detail.
After hearing this, Zhou Qing fell into deep thought.
Both of them were from the Fox Race, and last night Master Lu even almost tried to kill Consort Chen?
It seed sothing unpleasant had happened between them, which explained why Xuanyuan Muqian looked so displeased when she visited Master Lu at the academy back then.
Now, it all made sense.
Forget it, it’s not good to judge others without going through their hardships.
Even though she clearly didn’t want to get involved with people from the imperial capital, she still ca for Lu Yaoyao’s sake; that was already good enough.
But—
Looking at the glowing words "Good Father" above Lu Yaoyao’s head, Zhou Qing felt a surge of complex emotions, eventually unable to stop himself from laughing out loud.
"Um, Junior Sister Lu, can I ask you a question?" Zhou Qing asked with great effort to suppress his amusent.
Lu Yaoyao was concentrating on stroking the soft feathers of an old hen. Hearing Zhou Qing’s words, she didn’t even raise her head and said, "Go ahead, Junior Sister will answer everything she knows."
Zhou Qing hesitated for a mont, a trace of conflict flashing across his face, and softly said, "Don’t get angry if I ask, okay?"
Lu Yaoyao imdiately raised her head, revealing a pair of twinkling little tiger teeth: "Even if I get angry with anyone, it won’t be with you. Ask away."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing instantly regretted it a little.
Won, so contradictory.
Last ti, Grand Uncle gave Immortal Drunk, and I slept for seven days. When I woke up, you looked so angry and scolded non-stop.
Seeing Zhou Qing’s hesitation, Lu Yaoyao tilted her head, eyes full of doubt: "What exactly do you want to ask?"
"No, nothing really. Maybe forget it," Zhou Qing chickened out.
Lu Yaoyao imdiately put down the old hen, crossed her arms on her hips, and puffed her cheeks slightly.
"It’s really annoying to speak half-heartedly like this. What do you want to ask? Just ask quickly."
She even stomped her foot coquettishly, her tone clearly displeased.
Zhou Qing couldn’t help but twitch his face.
You say you won’t get angry? It’s not even started yet.
Helplessly, he tentatively asked, "Do I look a lot like your dad? I an when your dad was young."
Zhou Qing carefully asked, as if touching on an extrely sensitive subject.
Sure enough, Lu Yaoyao’s face imdiately changed, and she unconsciously clenched the hem of her clothes with her hands, her eyes flustered, not daring to et Zhou Qing’s gaze.
Seeing Lu Yaoyao in this state, Zhou Qing had already gotten his answer in his heart.
But at this mont, he was even more curious about what exactly had happened to this girl?
How did her family die?
Recalling the past, she seed to always be looking for soone who matched so signs related to her parents.
For instance, the Immortal Xuan You with the silver streaks in her green hair, the Ninth Princess with silver in her black hair, Consort Chen included, and even No. 6 with his head full of silver hair.
No, to be precise, she seed to have first imagined herself as her father, which is why she repeatedly asked what kind of Dao companion I was looking for and the color of the Dao companion’s hair.
Otherwise, back in the Taiqing Sect, when I randomly made up an orange-haired figure, she was so excited when the Ninth Princess arrived coincidentally.
Unfortunately, it was a misunderstanding. Xuanyuan Muqian just had so residual effects from a dicinal pill, like now, she had already returned to normal.
And that recipe book she gave by mistake, it even had a portrait of Immortal Xuan You with the words "Big Mom" written on it.
All these signs clearly indicated that my guess was correct.
"I, I have sothing to do, I need to go!" Lu Yaoyao’s voice had a quivering edge, her steps flustered as she turned and ran, almost tripping over the threshold.
But she quickly returned, hugged the old hen, and then ran off without looking back.
Watching her flee in such a sorry state, Zhou Qing truly felt so regret.
It was enough to know it in my heart. Why dig up everything? It’s simply rubbing salt into her wound.
Zhou Qing felt full of guilt and sighed secretly.
Not long after Lu Yaoyao left, Xuanyuan Yichen ca to visit.
After witnessing Zhou Qing’s Divinity Transformation stage combat power, his face now carried a hint of restraint.
"Brother Zhou, I still need to ask for your help!" After entering, Xuanyuan Yichen once again took out that square box.
After opening it, the pitch-black lamp was still inside.
Zhou Qing had identified this thing at the academy last ti; it was called the Soul-Catching Lamp.
The lamp’s handle was made from the hand bones of a Spirit Severing Realm expert, and the lampshade was ford from the resentnt of a Resentful Spirit.
But to avoid trouble, he had claid he couldn’t rember.
Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Yichen turned out to be so persistent.
This ti, he still shook his head, showing a helpless expression on his face, and said, "That old recipe book I got at a street stall back then, I only flipped through a few pages and then got bored and didn’t read further. It’s not that I can’t rember, it’s that I have never seen it."
Xuanyuan Yichen looked a bit disappointed after hearing this, and sighed softly, saying, "I’m sorry, it’s just that this thing is very important to ."
Zhou Qing couldn’t help but say, "Elder Xuanyuan is a Spirit Severing Realm expert with vast knowledge and experience. You can ask him to take a look."
Xuanyuan Yichen, however, shook his head, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes, and said, "Everyone has their own secrets. This thing is still unknown to Grandpa Emperor. Besides, he doesn’t like dealing with the affairs of us princes, so I also ask Brother Zhou to keep it secret."
