Lu Yurong calmly looked at him.
Leng Jinghua also looked at him and noticed that his expression was strange. He smiled and asked gently, "What's wrong, Young Lu?"
Lu Guangdi's expression was uncertain. After a while, he forced a smile, "Nothing, Your Highness, do you know Lu Zhengjun?"
"Yes, I've heard of him." Leng Jinghua praised, "He's truly a legend. Although he's retired, he's still so charming that I can't wait to meet him. Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity."
Lu Guangdi said, "Your Highness, I'm actually not related to him. I won't recognize him as my father, and he won't recognize me as his son."
"Oh?" Leng Jinghua frowned, "Blood is thicker than water. After all, we share the same bloodline."
Lu Guangdi said hatefully, "He doesn't deserve to be my father!"
"You must have suffered a lot over the years, right?" Leng Jinghua asked.
Lu Guangdi scoffed, "If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have become a fatherless child, and my mother wouldn't have died so early. In any case, I will never recognize him!"
Leng Jinghua nodded, "Maybe he doesn't even know of your existence."
"When my mother passed away, he came!" Lu Guangdi clenched his teeth and laughed coldly, "But he left me at Tide-listening Pavilion and didn't bring me back. He only glanced at me as if he didn't know me at all. Fine, if he doesn't recognize me, I won't recognize him either!"
His face was flushed red with excitement.
Leng Jinghua said, "It seems like there's a deep misunderstanding between you and your father."
"There's no misunderstanding, he just cherishes his reputation and thinks that I shouldn't have been born!" Lu Guangdi clenched his teeth, "Fine, then I'll cultivate as hard as I can, I'll definitely surpass him!"
Leng Jinghua said, "Your cultivation level is so high now, it's probably higher than when he was young!"
Lu Guangdi smiled.
Then, his smile slowly disappeared. He thought about how he was defeated by Chu Li again and how he made a bet to leave Fairy's Capital. He was so ashamed!
Back then, he stepped into Fairy's Capital to make a name for himself. He wanted to show that guy that he was stronger than him and make him regret it. Then, he would defeat him in front of him and humiliate him!
Chu Li was the best stepping stone. As long as they could cripple Chu Li or even kill him, they would instantly become famous in the world. They would be in the limelight for a while and would not lose to Lu Zhengjun in the past!
Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. He did not expect Chu Li to be so difficult to deal with. Not only did he fail to defeat him, he even embarrassed himself!
Leng Jinghua shook his head helplessly.
Lu Guangdi was born at the wrong time to meet Chu Li.
If it were not for Chu Li, Lu Guangdi's cultivation level would have been extremely rare in the world. He would have been able to dominate the younger generation, and both father and son would have been able to dominate the world. It would have been a wonderful story. Lu Guangdi would have been able to hold his head high, and Lu Zhengjun would have been able to acknowledge him.
"Your martial arts are now crippled. Without the Primary Heaven Pill, it won't be easy for you to recover!"
Lu Guangdi furrowed his brows and remained silent.
Now that his martial arts were crippled, his spine was broken as well. He had lost all confidence.
Lu Yurong calmly said, "Green Deer Cliff has the Primary Heaven Pill that can help you recover your martial arts. Back then, King An managed to recover his martial arts after obtaining a Primary Heaven Pill. As for you, now is not the time to be angry. Ask Senior Lu for a Primary Heaven Pill, then obtain a Mystical Technique. After that, you can seek revenge on Chu Li. Otherwise, you'll never be able to catch up to Chu Li in this lifetime. You'll just have to watch him walk with his head held high."
Lu Guangdi had a conflicted expression on his face.
Lu Yurong scoffed. "At a time like this, you're still thinking about your pitiful pride? You and Senior Lu are father and son. No matter what, you can't change that. Both of you have the same blood flowing in your veins. Why are you still talking about pride and face with him? "
Lu Guangdi shook his head. "I don't want to have anything to do with him!"
Lu Yurong calmly said, "Alright, then you should return to Tide-listening Pavilion and recover your martial arts. It'll take at least two years for your martial arts to recover, right? You should know that Chu Li has only been cultivating for two years. In two years, he went from a normal person who didn't know any martial arts to what he is now. What will he become in another two years? "
Lu Guangdi frowned and remained silent.
Leng Jinghua sighed and gently said, "Forget it, Yurong, don't force Young Lu. If he doesn't want to find Senior Lu, then forget it."
Lu Yurong said, "Alright, since he wants to recover his martial arts, there's no difference between staying in Fairy's Capital and Tide-listening Pavilion. Tide-listening Pavilion is quieter, it'll be better for him to focus on his cultivation."
Lu Guangdi frowned. "Miss Lu, are you chasing me away?"
"Do you have the cheek to stay?" Lu Yurong scoffed. "The Crown Prince's Residence doesn't support idlers!"
"Yurong!" Leng Jinghua hurriedly said, "Don't be so harsh! … Young Lu, just focus on recuperating and recovering your martial arts. You don't have to worry about anything else! "
"Your Highness …" Lu Guangdi cupped his fists in gratitude.
The harsher Lu Yurong was, the more magnanimous Leng Jinghua seemed. this moved Lu Guangdi even more.
He had an extreme personality, but he was still spoiled in Tide-listening Pavilion. His thoughts were not complicated enough, and he was easily deceived.
"Young Lu, I'll help you find some spirit pills. Even if I can't find something like the Primary Heaven Pill, it'll still be beneficial." Leng Jinghua gently said, "Even if I can't find it, I'll try to shorten the time it takes for you to recover your martial arts."
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Lu Guangdi cupped his fists in gratitude. He wanted to go through a mountain of blades and a sea of fire to repay Leng Jinghua's kindness.
Leng Jinghua waved his hand and smiled. "You're a High Official that I invited, it's only natural. … Go back and rest."
"Yes," Lu Guangdi replied.
As she watched him leave the backyard, Lu Yurong smiled. "This time, he'll probably look for Lu Zhengjun!"
Leng Jinghua slowly nodded.
He glanced at Lu Yurong. The two of them had great teamwork. By using both the carrot and the stick, he would not have to worry about not being able to break the knot in Lu Guangdi's heart and lure Lu Zhengjun over.
Once Lu Zhengjun arrived, his plan would truly begin.

A bright moon hung in the sky. Chu Li sat by the stone table in the courtyard, lazily studying the Heavenly King Palm.
It was brightly lit, and the courtyard was as bright as day.
The Heavenly King Palm was full of mysteries. He wanted to understand its mysteries and use it accordingly. Unfortunately, the Omniscient Mirror was not omnipotent, and it could not completely understand the mysteries of the Heavenly King Palm.
He suddenly looked up and saw Lu Yurong standing in front of him. She had arrived without a sound, and it was obvious that her cultivation level had increased by quite a bit.
Chu Li smiled. "You don't come to me for no reason. Is it because Lu Guangdi hasn't left yet?"
"Yes." Lu Yurong nodded. "You've completely offended my uncle-in-law, and he wants to use the Secret Guardians Hall to deal with you."
Chu Li frowned at her.
Lu Yurong said, "This is a good opportunity to chase Gu Yu away."
"Why are you being so kind?" Chu Li scoffed.
Lu Yurong rolled her eyes at him. "I want to watch your show, but I remember my promise. You, on the other hand …"
She shook her head as she spoke.
Chu Li scoffed. "Don't worry, Lu Guangdi will leave!"
"That's good." Lu Yurong smiled. "Let me be clear with you, Lu Guangdi is the illegitimate son of Green Deer Cliff's Lu Zhengjun. I'm leaving."
She fluttered away after she finished speaking.
Chu Li fell into deep thought.
