Heavenly Star River, Fu Clan's frontline headquarters.
Lu An came to a room in the central pavilion. As usual, Fu Yueni was here to disguise Lu An. Fu Yueni had already done Lu An's disguise many times, so she was very familiar with it.
After disguising himself, Lu An came to Fu Yu's office. Fu Yueni told him that there was no one here, and that the surrounding walls were not transparent. Fu Yu looked at Lu An. Logically, Lu An should have gone there four days ago, but he did not. Fu Yu knew that Lu An was in seclusion, or else he would not have been delayed by other matters.
There were only two people in the room. Fu Yu came to Lu An. She did not say anything, and only looked into Lu An's eyes.
Fu Yu's starry eyes looked into Lu An's dark eyes, and Lu An naturally looked back at Fu Yu, not knowing what his wife wanted to do.
Fu Yu naturally felt Lu An's aura. Lu An did not deliberately hide his strength here, and just from his aura, it was enough to show how much his cultivation level had improved. Fu Yu was happy for Lu An's cultivation level, but she was more concerned about his eyes. So Fu Yu used her starry eyes to look into Lu An's eyes. Their eyes met, but in reality, it was a clash between two powerful concepts.
No.
It was not a concept. To be more precise, it was a regulation.
Two regulations were clashing, confronting each other.
After Lu An broke through to the Heaven Tier, Fu Yu and Lu An's eyes met for a long time. Both of them had special eyes. Not counting their lifespans of nearly a hundred years, the number of people in history who had special eyes could be counted on one hand. This was enough to show how rare special eyes were. It could no longer be described as rare. Even so, to Lu An, he had it, his wife had it, and he had seen one other person who had it, and that was … Li Han of the Spirit Clan.
As far as he knew, there were three people, but other than the three of them, he had never seen anyone else with special eyes. Not a single person from the Hachiko clan was present.
The last time their eyes met, it ended with no result. The two eyes did not affect each other. Fu Yu's starry eyes did not invade Lu An's eyes, and the darkness in Lu An's eyes did not permeate Fu Yu's starry eyes.
And this time …
After staring at each other for half a cup of tea's time, Fu Yu closed her eyes.
There was still no change in her eyes, but … she felt a trace of pressure.
That's right, Xing Mou's perception wouldn't lie. Her eyes did feel a trace of pressure. Although she didn't really use the power of the Star Eyes, Lu An didn't do it deliberately. Even if this trace of pressure was very small and negligible, the pressure still existed.
As long as there was pressure, it meant that Lu An's path was further than hers. Or … Lu An's law had already suppressed the law she was pursuing.
Fu Yu quickly opened her eyes. It looked like an ordinary blink, but it cut off the confrontation with Lu An's eyes. Then, she revealed a beautiful smile and said, "Congratulations, my husband, for taking another step forward."
Lu An also revealed a smile and said, "I will work hard in my cultivation and protect you as soon as possible."
"Mm." Fu Yu smiled faintly.
Lu An took a deep breath. He was reluctant to part with his wife and her smile, but he knew that his current feelings would only delay his future happiness. Thus, he left and disappeared from the room.

Spirit Galaxy, Jiangshou Planet.
Eight days ago, after reaching an agreement with Jiang Xiao, Lu An left his own Teleportation Array in the Teleportation Palace. Thus, he came here directly and didn't go to Jiangshou Planet. Lu An, who walked out of the Teleportation Array, retracted his aura and maintained the same level as when he first met the Jiang Clan. After all, his strength had increased twice, especially this time. He was worried that it would arouse suspicion. Moreover, he would spar with the Hachiko clan's Gao Clan and Fu Clan. When the time came, he would definitely use his true strength. Because of this, if Chu Xing and Lu An maintained the same cultivation level, it might arouse suspicion.
Even if they didn't need any evidence, just suspicion was enough to threaten Lu An's life. Thus, he had to be very careful. Fortunately, he had the Hidden Immortal Ring. Otherwise, a Heavenly King Realm expert would be able to sense his true cultivation level. Even if he retracted his aura, it would be useless, including the other powers in his body. His current aura was released by Lu An through the Hidden Immortal Ring. Under the protection of the Hidden Immortal Ring, even a Heavenly King Realm expert wouldn't be able to see through it.
Lu An appeared in the Teleportation Palace. The protector glanced at Lu An but didn't say anything. Seeing the other party's attitude, Lu An put down some of the worries in his heart. It seemed like things were going according to his plan. At least, Jiang Xiao didn't betray him.
Lu An left the Teleportation Palace and walked within the palace, heading straight for Jiang Xiao's residence. Soon, he arrived outside the courtyard and said to the two maidservants, "I would like to see Eldest Young Lady. Please inform her."
One of the maidservants immediately left and returned quickly. She said to Lu An, "Eldest Young Lady invites you in."
"Many thanks."
Lu An entered the courtyard and walked through the beautiful garden. Soon, he arrived in front of Jiang Xiao's boudoir.
The door of the boudoir wasn't closed and Jiang Xiao was sitting in the outer hall. The two of them met through the door frame. Jiang Xiao raised her hand and pointed to a chair. Although she didn't say anything, it was obvious that she wanted Lu An to come in and sit.
Lu An naturally didn't hesitate and stepped in. As soon as he entered, the door behind him immediately closed.
Lu An didn't care and went straight to the chair and sat down. Lu An didn't want to sit here. Instead, he sat opposite Jiang Xiao. However, he was worried that he would be suspected if he did too many things. So, he sat there.
The two of them were very close to each other. There wasn't even a table between them. They could touch each other.
Lu An's attitude was very natural and casual. After all, the relationship between the two of them was not a master-slave relationship, but a cooperative one. This was completely different from Jiang Xiao's subordinates. In Jiang Xiao's heart, this man knew her secret and had seen the Hidden God Stone. He might even have something on her. Although this man had no interest in her body, she couldn't show an arrogant attitude in front of this man.
"I thought you wouldn't come." After closing the door, the contents of their conversation wouldn't spread to the outside world. Jiang Xiao felt relieved and said, "Don't you come every five days? It's been eight days."
"I have something to do myself." Lu An said.
"Oh?" Jiang Xiao raised her eyebrows and revealed a curious expression. Then, she thought of something and said, "Don't tell me you're not only working with the Jiang family, but also with other clans and moving back and forth between the clans?"
"..."
Lu An revealed a puzzled expression and said, "Miss, your imagination is too rich."
Jiang Xiao wasn't angry at Lu An's words because Jiang Ping had investigated Chu Xing. In the past eight days, she had confirmed that there was no such person as Chu Xing among the business partners of the other clans. There was no newcomer, which meant that Chu Xing was only working with the Jiang family.
"Is there any news about the Pei family?" Lu An didn't dwell on this topic and directly asked the question he was concerned about.
"There is news." Miss said, "Since the Young Master disappeared, they are naturally in a mess. However, they don't have any clues because this Pei Pei has made too many enemies in the past and harmed too many women. They don't know where to find revenge. As long as you do it cleanly, they won't find us. "
Lu An nodded and continued to ask the question he was most concerned about, "Miss, how do you want to deal with Jiang Xin?"
The two of them were in the same boat. Jiang Xiao wanted to hide it from Chu Xing, after all, the other party would have another weakness. Because Spiritual Consciousness Sacrifice could be discovered, and Spiritual Consciousness Sacrifice could only be done once. If Jiang Xin could not sacrifice her Spiritual Consciousness to others, it meant that she had already sacrificed her Spiritual Consciousness. In the end, Jiang Xiao did not hide it because there was no need.
Chu Xing already had her biggest weakness in his hands. In contrast, this weakness was much smaller. Even if Chu Xing announced this matter, she had a way to solve it, which was likely to be beneficial to her.
"I asked her to sacrifice her Spiritual Consciousness to me." Jiang Xiao said with a smile.
Lu An was slightly startled when he heard this. He had forgotten about Spiritual Consciousness Sacrifice and said, "It's a perfect way."
"Who said it wasn't?" Jiang Xiao said with a smile, "Now she is very obedient in front of me, as obedient as a pet."
As for how Jiang Xiao would deal with Jiang Xin, Lu An was not interested in it in his heart, as long as he could confirm that there would be no future trouble. He was more concerned about the matter of the top clans coming to propose marriage tomorrow. He asked, "I don't know if Miss has thought of a way to let me follow Miss, so that I can see the people from the top clans proposing marriage tomorrow?"
