Since her master had spoken, Zhao Yue naturally wouldn't say anything else.
Zhao Yue was not very interested in the trip to the Divine Capital. The cold poison had just subsided, and she was more interested in cultivating. Little Yuan 'er, on the other hand, could not wait to go in and have some fun.
The most prosperous place in Great Yan was the Divine Capital.
Little Yuan 'er had long wanted to visit the Divine Capital, but her master had never brought her here.
Now that she had this opportunity, she was naturally the happiest.
They decided to keep a low profile. The three of them did not ride the flying chariot. Moreover, the cloud-splitting chariot was damaged and would have to be repaired slowly.
They entered the city.
Bustling buildings, orderly streets … crowds of people came and went. It was far beyond their imagination.
Lu Zhou was slightly surprised as well.
However, Lu Zhou was not reluctant to part with these things.
"Let's go."
There was a hint of command in his voice.
Little Yuan 'er could only suppress her restless heart and follow her master helplessly.
Zhao Yue, on the other hand, followed obediently.
"Master, where are we going?" asked Little Yuan 'er.
"Prince of Qi Manor."
"The Prince of Qi Mansion?" Little Yuan 'er was puzzled.
Zhao Yue came to Little Yuan 'er's side and said in a low voice, "He's someone Master used to know."
"Hmm? How can Master have friends like this? "
"Shh —" Zhao Yue shivered.
Zhao Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. 'I better stay away from you. I'm not you … I'm not as doted on by master as you are.'
If these words were said in the past, he would have been severely punished.
The two of them sneaked a glance at their master and heaved a sigh of relief when they realized that the old man wasn't angry.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he walked. "Yuan 'er."
Thump!
Suddenly, Little Yuan 'er dropped to her knees and covered her ears with her hands. "Master … I was wrong! I won't dare to do it again. "
The passersby on the street gathered around.
Why did someone suddenly kneel down?
It was baffling.
Lu Zhou turned around, a puzzled expression on his face.
Why did this girl kneel down?
"Get up," Lu Zhou said indifferently.
"I say, old man … your attitude isn't right. Your granddaughter is so obedient and cute. How can you be so cold?"
"That's right … This lass immediately admits her mistake as soon as she kneels down. Thinking back to how useless I was, I really can't compare to her."
"Girl, get up quickly. Your grandfather is old and a little muddle-headed. "
Lu Zhou. "…"
This group of passersby was really good at imagining things.
He chattered non-stop.
Suddenly, Little Yuan 'er rose to her feet angrily and stomped on the ground.
Boom!
The ground cracked.
The surrounding people hurriedly retreated!
He was dumbfounded.
My goodness, this contrast is a little scary!
How fierce!
"One more word about my grandfather, and I'll beat you up!" Little Yuan 'er said angrily.
The crowd immediately dispersed.
You take my good intentions for ill will. Why do you have to be a busybody?
They dispersed in a hubbub.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. 'He's doing quite well. In the past, he would've threatened to kill everyone in his family.' This time, it only mentioned beating, which meant that there was a huge improvement.
"Follow me," Lu Zhou said.
"Oh."
Little Yuan 'er and Zhao Yue breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
When the two of them passed by an intersection.
Little Yuan 'er pointed at a few low-rank cultivators with sabers and said, "Master, they're from the Nether Sect."
Lu Zhou looked in the direction of the finger.
Little Yuan 'er said, "The Nether Sect is the greatest Fiend sect in Great Yan. Many factions avoid them. To think that they're openly recruiting here. Is the Imperial family not going to do anything about it?"
"Don't worry about it."
Lu Zhou shook his head and continued walking into the city.
Zhao Yue said, "Indeed, the Nether Sect is a Fiend sect. However, to the Imperial family, the Nether Sect is no different from the ten great sects of the Noble Path. They just don't interfere with each other. The Nether Sect's recruitment is no different from the Noble Path's recruitment. Naturally, the Imperial family won't interfere … Moreover, with the great … great traitor's methods, it's only natural for them to take care of things. "
"Oh."
Little Yuan 'er nodded in confusion.
It was the same everywhere. At the very least, up until now, the Nether Sect had not touched the Imperial family.
They had been secretly annexing the Fiend Sect's forces. This was a conflict in the cultivation world.
After leaving the downtown area, they entered the residential area.
It was much quieter now.
Based on their blurry memories, the three of them arrived near the Prince of Qi Mansion.
After so many years, there seemed to be no changes.
"Master, I'll knock on the door."
It was a wealthy family after all. There were many stairs.
Before he could knock on the door … the door creaked open slowly.
Several servants walked out of the Prince of Qi Manor. At the end, an elderly steward stopped and asked, "Why are you here?
Finally, an elderly butler stopped and asked, "Who are you?"
Little Yuan 'er turned to look at her master.
"Where's Qin Jun?" Lu Zhou asked indifferently.
The butler was slightly annoyed. He wondered who was so bold as to address his master by name. He looked over.
This butler was no ordinary butler.
He had stayed in the Prince of Qi Mansion for 20 years and was well-liked by everyone in the mansion. He was attentive and meticulous. He could remember the information, hobbies, and appearances of the Prince of Qi Mansion's distinguished guests.
He was a very observant person.
The butler studied Lu Zhou with narrowed eyes.
'Hm?'
The butler's eyes widened in shock.
He seemed to remember something.
He did not dare to be careless. He hastily bowed and walked up to Lu Zhou. "May I ask if you're from Golden Court Mountain, old mister?"
'This emotional intelligence!
This brain! '
'It's not asking about your name or the Evil Sky Pavilion. It's asking where you're from.' He would not offend anyone with his name, and he would not offend anyone with the words' villains' either.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. "You know me?"
The old butler did not hesitate at all when he heard the answer.
Thud!
He fell to his knees and kowtowed as he said, "Greetings, old mister."
As always, he was careful to address Lu Zhou in a manner that might cause mishaps.
Zhao Yue and Little Yuan 'er were shocked and puzzled by this.
His master had a notorious reputation. Even those who had nothing to do with the Evil Sky Pavilion would avoid him whenever they heard of him. However, this old butler was kneeling. It seemed like there was a special connection between them.
Zhao Yue said, "Answer the question."
Little Yuan 'er nodded and said, "Answer the question."
It was said that there were many rules within the palace walls, and it was true. They had not even entered the Imperial city, and they were already kneeling.
The old butler said, "I … saw … old mister's portrait in the old master's study!"
"My portrait?" Lu Zhou began to recall.
He recalled his first meeting with the Prince of Qi, Qin Jun.
He did not recall any portrait being left behind. He guessed Qin Jun must have asked an artist to leave it behind after he left.
'Forget it. It's not a big deal.
If I have more Reversal Cards in the future and become younger, they won't be able to recognize me. '
"This way, old mister!"
The old butler knew how to conduct himself. He knew Lu Zhou's status so he did not even bother announcing his arrival. He hastily rose to his feet and made an inviting gesture.
Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction. He strode into the Prince of Qi Mansion.
Inside the living room.
The old butler mustered up his courage and ordered the servants to brew tea with the best tea leaves in the mansion.
Lu Zhou did not mind. Instead, he asked, "Where's Qin Jun?"
The old butler stood respectfully at the side and said, "In reply to your question, old mister, the old master has gone to the Imperial city. He might return in half a day. Just stay here, old mister. "
As soon as he finished speaking …
A loud voice rang from outside.
"Old Hong … I heard we have an honored guest?"
