Lu An rested for an entire afternoon in the Third Northwest Courtyard. He did nothing this afternoon. He didn't cultivate or temper his body. He just sat quietly and emptied himself.
Lu An even took a nap on the bed. It turned out that the bed in Sengoku was much more comfortable than outside. He soon felt sleepy lying on it. When Lu An woke up, he felt much better.
As for what happened after lunch, Lu An wasn't angry. It didn't mean that he wouldn't be angry, but he knew that some things would only be a meaningless struggle even if he resisted. It might even lead to more troublesome consequences.
After resting for an entire afternoon, Lu An felt that he was completely energized. When the banquet was approaching, Yao came to the courtyard to look for him. When she saw that Lu An's spirit was much better than at noon, she finally felt relieved.
"The banquet is about to start." Yao said softly to Lu An, "But there won't be as many people at this banquet as at noon. There will only be my father, my mother, second brother, and you."
Lu An was startled when he heard this. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Isn't this your family's dinner? Won't it be troublesome for me to go?"
"I didn't know either, but my father said that you must go." Yao said.
Must he go?
Lu An was startled and then frowned slightly. Could it be that the person had already discovered the two types of Fate Wheels in his body?
Thinking of this, Lu An denied it in his heart. In his heart, the strength of the person in the black fog was unparalleled. It was a strength that even a Level Eight Heavenly Master could not compare to. If the person in the black fog said that no one could detect it, it must be impossible to be detected.
"Okay." Lu An relaxed his brows and said with a smile, "Then let's go."
"Okay." Yao nodded.
Soon, Lu An walked beside Yao and left the Northwest Courtyard. The two walked in Sengoku and attracted a lot of attention along the way. When the two finally arrived at their destination, Lu An found that this was not the place they went at noon, but a more beautiful courtyard.
This courtyard was the best location in the surrounding area. Without a doubt, it was the residence of the Master of Sengoku.
Walking into the courtyard, this courtyard was much larger than the Northwest Courtyard Lu An lived in. There was not just one house, but many. At this moment, in a pavilion on the small lake in the courtyard, Yao's parents and Qing were sitting there waiting. Between the three of them was a table full of dishes.
Yao led Lu An and arrived at the pavilion very quickly. After coming to the pavilion, Lu An courteously bowed to Yuan and the beautiful woman and said, "Junior Lu An greets seniors."
"Yes." Yuan nodded slightly, and his expression seemed to be much more amiable than it was at noon. He pointed to a chair and said, "Have a seat."
Hearing this, Lu An sat down politely.
"I heard that something unpleasant happened after the luncheon. Are you okay?" Yuan looked at Lu An and asked.
"It's fine," Lu An said without hesitation. "It's just a spar."
"That's good," Yuan nodded and did not mention it again.
Yao did not tell her father, but as the Master of Sengoku, Yuan naturally knew everything that happened in Sengoku. He asked just to see Lu An's reaction.
"Let's eat," Yuan waved his hand and said, "Eat while it's hot."
After Yuan spoke, the others began to eat. After everyone had picked up their food, Lu An reached out with his chopsticks and picked up the food.
"I still have to thank you for Yao's matter." Yuan said to Lu An, "I know the outside world very well. Yao must have a lot of trouble out there alone. You played a big role in her safe return. As her father, I must be very grateful to you. "
"Senior, you flatter me," Lu An said with a smile.
"I just didn't expect that kid to kidnap my daughter and abandon her outside. It's unforgivable!" When Yuan said this, he frowned. It was obvious that he was really angry. He said, "I must settle this matter properly!"
At the side, Qing also nodded. Leaving Yao alone outside, if not for Lu An's help, she would have definitely been in trouble!
However, looking at her father, Yao's expression changed slightly. She seemed to be struggling, but she still said, "Father, the past … Let it be."
"How can that be!" Yuan immediately said, "I already knew that kid was not a good person. No matter where he goes, I must find him!"
As he said that, Yuan suddenly realized something. He could not help but ask his daughter in surprise, "Little Yao, don't tell me you still like him and can't forget him?"
"…"
Yao lowered her head and used her chopsticks to fiddle with the food in her bowl. She did not say a word.
"Little Yao!" The beautiful woman could not help but advise, "How can you still like him when he's already like this? Think about what happened to you on the ship. If not for Lu An, the consequences would be unimaginable! "
"En," Yao replied softly without raising her head.
Looking at their daughter, Yuan and the beautiful woman sighed at the same time. Lu An's heart was also moved. He really did not expect that Yao would still like that man.
"Forget it." Yuan seemed to be tired. He waved his hand and said, "It's good that you can come back safely. You have never been out of Sengoku before. This time, you have been out for so long. You have seen many things. At least now you know how important strength is. You have gained something. Since you have decided to cultivate, you must not be lazy. Do you understand? "
"En." Yao raised her head and said softly, "I will definitely cultivate well."
"Then I'm relieved." Yuan was relieved. Then, he looked at Lu An and said, "It just so happens that you also want to cultivate immortal arts. Both of you will start tomorrow. Both of you can cultivate together and compete with each other. It can also be considered as motivation for each other. "
"Yes." Lu An said.
After the few of them ate quietly for a while, Yuan looked at Lu An again and said, "I have never asked about your family background. Where are you from? How is your family?"
Hearing Yuan's question, Lu An frowned slightly and said, "I don't know who my parents are. I was adopted when I was young. Later on, the person who adopted me died. Now, I am the only one left."
Yuan listened to Lu An's words and carefully sensed Lu An's aura. For an expert like him, it was easy to tell if a person was lying or not. This kid was indeed not lying. This surprised him.
"I'm sorry." Yuan said, "It reminded you of the past."
"En." Lu An replied and continued to eat.
"Then where did you learn your cultivation?" Yuan asked again.
"In an academy in Midnight Kingdom called Meteor Trail City," Lu An said truthfully, "After leaving the academy, I have been traveling around. Then, I came to Tiancheng Kingdom."
"Midnight Kingdom." Yuan thought carefully and said, "I have some impression of this country."
Then, Yuan looked at Lu An and said, "Your talent is considered good outside. Especially in a small country, it is already very outstanding. What are your plans in the future? Are you going to join a big sect or do you want to get an official position in a country? "
"I want to improve my strength." Lu An heard this, looked at Yuan and said softly, "As for the rest, I am not interested."
"Ambitious." Yuan smiled and said, "In the afternoon, Little Yao told me a lot about you. She said that you are a very hardworking person. You don't even rest at night and keep cultivating. Nowadays, there are not many young people like you who are willing to work hard without being supervised. It is Little Yao's blessing to be able to make friends with you. "
"Senior, you flatter me." Lu An said with a smile.
"From tomorrow onwards, I will personally teach Little Yao cultivation." Yuan's face turned serious and said, "Little Yao's cultivation must not make any mistakes, so I can't be distracted. Little Yao has been asking me to teach you personally this afternoon, but I really don't have time. "
"So." Yuan turned his head and said to the beautiful woman, "His cultivation will be under your charge."
