While speaking, the old man thought of a problem and asked in confusion, "It's only been a few years. That young man's cultivation should be about the same as yours. Even Xu Ding Yang fled at the sight of him, so how did he have the ability to save you?"
Du Lang's expression turned solemn, "It's hard to believe, but Honoured Master, Brother Lu is now at the late-stage of the Constellation Realm!"
"What?" The old man was shocked, "Late-stage of the Constellation Realm? Are you sure?"
If he didn't know his disciple's character, the old man would have thought that he was joking with him. It was shocking that a cultivator could cultivate from the Eighth Order Divine Sea to the late-stage of the Constellation Realm in such a short time.
Du Lang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Honoured Master, how could I be wrong about this? Moreover, Luo Shenzi even gathered thousands of people to go to the Heavenly Dog Star. Even if I was wrong, Luo Shenzi wouldn't be. In the test of the opportunity on the Heavenly Dog Star, Brother Lu lasted longer than Luo Shenzi and was the last to come out!"
"Impossible …" The old man only felt that his cognition had been completely overturned. How could the cultivation of the Constellation Realm be so simple? Even if there were abundant resources, one still needed time to refine them. How could a person's cultivation have such a huge growth in less than ten years?
But soon, the old man thought of another person.
It was the person who brought Lu Yiye from the Nine Heavens to participate in the Divine Sea Battle. At that time, that person casually took out a Nine Star treasure and threw it into the Reincarnation Tree's treasure pool, winning a lot in the end …
The old man had seen that person from afar and felt that his cultivation was unfathomable. Although he couldn't see what his cultivation was with his eyesight, he could tell that this person must be a top cultivator from Rizhao's attitude towards him. His strength was so great that even those from the top Realms were afraid of him.
Lu Yiye from the Nine Heavens had such a Master as his backing, so everything seemed to be logical.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through the old man's mind. He realized that he couldn't treat Lu Yiye from the Nine Heavens as a simple Constellation Realm Junior. He had a very powerful Master supporting him.
Collecting his thoughts, the old man said, "Remember the kindness of saving your life. Even if you don't have the ability to repay him now, if he has any requests in the future, as long as they don't conflict with your ideals and don't do anything evil, you should do your best to help him!"
Du Lang replied respectfully, "This disciple will remember Shizun's teachings!" He then changed the topic, "Shizun, Brother Lu said that he wants to pay you a visit, I wonder if Shizun …"
Hearing this, the old man smiled, "Since he is your savior, and you met him when you were still young, how can this old man not fulfill his wish? Go ahead and make the arrangements."
If Lu Ye was just Du Lang's savior, it wouldn't matter whether he met him or not. Lu Ye only wanted to visit him out of respect for his seniors. Even if he met Lu Ye, it would only make Lu Ye cautious, so he might as well not meet him. However, considering that there was such a powerful expert behind Lu Ye, the old man felt that it was better to meet him.
"Yes!" Du Lang replied and retreated respectfully.
Inside the guest hall, Lu Ye was once again beheaded by Yan Xi, causing him to feel a slight pain in his head. When he opened his eyes, he was about to think about the gains and losses of the battle just now when his expression suddenly froze.
Because just half a foot in front of him, a face that seemed to be carved from jade was staring at him with a pair of clear eyes that were filled with curiosity.
Lu Ye was startled and instinctively raised his hand to press the hilt of his sword, almost slashing it out.
However, when he saw who the other party was, he held himself back.
The one staring at him was none other than the little girl he had rescued from the Mist Dragon.
Since the day he rescued this little girl, she had been in a coma. Li Shang, who had been taking care of her, had repeatedly checked on her condition, only to find that the Soul Devouring Aphids in her Spirit Sea had disappeared, but she still hadn't woken up and there was still vitality in her body.
It had been half a year, and Lu Ye had long become accustomed to her being in a coma. Who would have thought that when he opened his eyes this time, she would wake up and stare at him from such a close distance.
This little girl looked like a little girl, about five or six years old, but Lu Ye wasn't naive enough to think she was really a little girl.
The other party might be an old monster who had lived for who knows how many years. As for why she appeared in the appearance of a little girl, Lu Ye didn't know. There were many wonderful Secret Techniques in this world, many of which had miraculous powers.
"You're awake?" Lu Ye asked calmly, his right hand still resting on the hilt of his Mountain Plate Saber. Although he didn't feel any malice from the other party's eyes, it was always better to be safe than sorry.
If this little girl opened her mouth and turned it into a bloody maw, he would be in deep trouble.
The little girl's eyes lit up for a moment before she opened her mouth and called out in a crisp voice, "Father!"
Lu Ye was stunned for a moment, thinking there was something wrong with his ears and couldn't help frowning, "What?"
"Father!" The little girl smiled brightly and threw herself at Lu Ye, crashing into his arms and wrapping her arms around his neck.
Lu Ye was caught off guard and was thrown onto the bed.
This time, Lu Ye finally heard clearly and couldn't believe his ears.
He had imagined all kinds of possibilities after this little girl woke up, and it wouldn't be strange if she bit the hand that fed her, but she actually called him father …
What kind of situation was this?
"Father, Father!" The little girl was still calling out, clearly very happy, as if she really was Lu Ye's daughter and reuniting with him after a long separation filled her with joy and joy.
Lu Ye's entire body stiffened. He was an expert in life and death battles, but when such a delicate little girl threw herself into his arms and called him daddy, his heart almost melted. Lu Ye didn't know what to do.
The little girl even rubbed her face against his, a look of enjoyment on her face.
"Li Shang, save me!" After a short moment of thought, Lu Ye finally remembered that he wasn't alone and hurriedly called out to Li Shang who was hiding in his Divine Sea for help.
Li Shang was alarmed. She had been hiding here all this time, so she had no idea what was going on outside. When she heard Lu Ye's cry for help, she thought Lu Ye had encountered some kind of attack, so she quickly flashed out. In her hand was the soul tool bronze ring she obtained from the Great Fortune Roulette.
Then, she saw an extremely strange scene.
Lu Ye was lying on the bed, as if he had been hit by a Body Securing Talisman. A small figure was crawling on his chest, intimately snuggling in his arms.
Four eyes met, Li Shang was shocked: "She woke up?"
After taking care of this little girl for half a year, although there was no communication between them, Li Shang was still very happy to see her wake up.
But this scene puzzled her: "What's going on?"
"Save me!" Lu Ye fiercely winked at her.
How would Li Shang know how to save her?
The little girl suddenly got up from Lu Ye's body and turned to look at Li Shang. She was startled for a moment before she threw herself at Li Shang. Opening her pink arms, she bumped into Li Shang's chest and shouted, "Mother!"
Li Shang also stiffened, the corners of her eyes twitching a few times as she looked at Lu Ye: "What did she call me?"
Lu Ye got up and quietly walked to the side, tidying up his clothes without saying a word so as not to stir up trouble.
"Mother!" The little girl shouted again, this time Li Shang finally determined what she was shouting about. Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, she said: "Girl, you've got the wrong person, I'm not your mother!"
This time it was the little girl's turn to stiffen, then she looked up at Li Shang with her clear eyes. Her eyes became watery at a speed visible to the naked eye, then tears began to flow down her cheeks like pearls from a broken necklace.
She pitifully asked: "Mother, you don't want me anymore?"
"I'm not your mother!" Li Shang weakly defended herself. She was a soul race, how could she give birth to a human!
It would've been better if she didn't say this, but as soon as she said this, the little girl burst into tears, crying like she was heartbroken, as if she had encountered the most grievous thing in the world.
Li Shang was dumbfounded, quickly turning to look at Lu Ye, wanting to get some help from him.
Lu Ye scratched his head, thinking for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he nodded to Li Shang, indicating that this little girl's brain was damaged.
Because the little girl had been tortured into a coma by the Soul Devouring Aphids before, when Lu Ye entered her Divine Sea to investigate, he found that her Divine Sea had dried up, only her Soul Avatar was wrapped in a layer of inexplicable strength, allowing her to survive.
He didn't know how long she had been tortured by the Soul Devouring Aphids, but no matter who this little girl was before, it was likely her mind had been damaged.
At this moment, the little girl was like a newborn who had hatched from an egg, after breaking the shell, the first thing she saw was her parents.
Lu Ye felt that this should be the reason why the little girl called him and Li Shang father and mother, otherwise there was no way to explain the situation in front of him.
Li Shang also woke up, looking at the little girl crying in her arms, knowing that at this time she couldn't seriously explain anything, so she quickly coaxed her.
After all, she had taken care of this little girl for half a year, so her feelings for her were deeper than Lu Ye's, and she was a woman, so her thoughts were much more delicate.
After a while of coaxing, the little girl stopped crying, perhaps because she was tired from crying, or perhaps because of the problem with her Divine Sea, she snuggled into Li Shang's arms and fell asleep.
But even if she was asleep, she still sobbed from time to time, as if she had suffered grievances in her sleep.
Li Shang put her on the bed and covered her with a quilt, then looked at Lu Ye, "What do we do now?"
How could Lu Ye know what to do? He had never been a father before.
Originally, he planned to wait for the little girl to wake up and let her come and go freely, but who would have thought that she would recognize him as her father and mother.
"See if there is anything wrong with her body." Lu Ye stood in the distance and pointed to Li Shang, fearing that the little girl would suddenly wake up and recognize him as her father.
Li Shang saw through his thoughts and couldn't help rolling her eyes, carefully examining the little girl's body, a moment later, Li Shang frowned, "Strange."
"What's wrong?" Lu Ye asked.
"She really doesn't seem to have cultivated." Li Shang's face was puzzled, when the little girl was unconscious, Li Shang checked her more than once, but at that time she only thought that the little girl had suffered a serious injury that caused her body to be a little abnormal, but now that she had woken up, she still couldn't see any trace of cultivation.
She was like a real mortal.
