"Eighth-grade sect guardian! Top human rank!"
The young man was afraid that Xiang Sheng would get impatient, so he didn't dare to keep it a secret. "The Blazing Flame Sect's best mental method is this. As long as one has enough talent, cultivating all the way to the Nascent Soul stage is not a problem."
Xiang Sheng remained silent, pondering for a moment before saying, "Hearing is believing. Give me some general outlines, and I'll be able to tell whether what you say is true or not. If it's true, your matter... can be considered."
The difficulty of the secret method of "Jueming" is far beyond the ordinary methods of cultivating the mind. As the saying goes, if you master one method, you will master all methods.
Although she couldn't understand the top human-level mental method in a short time, she still had the ability to distinguish.
The young man was immediately stunned. He stood there awkwardly for a moment, then stammered, "I don't have the mental method right now."
Xiang Sheng's expression darkened, and he turned and left.
The young man hurriedly grabbed the former's sleeve, his face flushed with anxiety as he said, "My benefactor, it's not too late for you to leave after you listen to me! If you still want to leave after I tell you, I will definitely not stop you or follow you."
Xiang Sheng let go of the boy's hand, expressionless, "You say."
"I...I am the eighth prince of the Lu Kingdom! My real name is Lu Zhu, the "Zhu" in "Zizhu" (purple bamboo)."
Lu Zhu revealed his origins and looked at Xiang Sheng fearfully, but saw that the latter still had no expression on his face and no reaction.
It seems that he really knew it a long time ago, but instead of thinking about stealing the treasure, he stayed away from it?
After figuring this out, Lu Zhu felt relieved and simply told everyone, "I'm not lying about the Heart Sutra I mentioned. Our Lu Kingdom royal family does have such a Heart Sutra. It's just that we have only recently determined the location of our ancestral land, and the Heart Sutra is there.
I am now the only surviving direct descendant of the Lu family. It will be easier to obtain it if you take me in."
Hearing this, Xiang Sheng's heart moved and he asked, "Is the Lu Kingdom's royal family really destroyed?"
Lu Zhu's face was full of bitterness. "I'm here, how could it be fake?"
Xiang Sheng pursed his lips slightly. "I heard that the Blazing Flame Sect had already sent people to support them. How could it be such a result?"
Mentioning the Blazing Flame Sect, Lu Zhu's eyes immediately revealed hatred, and he gritted his teeth, "How can they be support? They are clearly a group of hyenas who came here to take advantage!
My eldest brother worked so hard to hold up the young generation's reputation, and now, only six months after his passing, the Blazing Flame Sect has completely forgotten him. It's truly heartbreaking to see people disappear when they're gone!"
Xiang Sheng frowned slightly, "How many people know about the Lu family's ancestral land?"
Lu Zhu's expression froze slightly. He had been deliberately ignoring this matter, but the other party had indeed noticed it.
With a sigh in his heart, Lu Zhu resigned himself to his fate and said, "My Lu Kingdom... was destroyed because of this."
"Everyone knows?"
Xiang Sheng frowned.
The Chiyan Sect is trying to gain benefits under the guise of rescue, so there is no reason for them to let go of the Lu family's ancestral land.
So, Xiang Hongyu is also on his way to the Lu family's ancestral land?
If I go to Lu State by myself, I will end up empty-handed.
"For some reason, the news of the secret treasures of the ancestral land leaked out, and half a month ago, our Lu Kingdom was destroyed because of it."
Lu Zhu hung his head in dejection. "Right now, I'm afraid all the powerful independent cultivators and sects, both large and small, have already gathered in Xuanwang City, waiting for the opening of the Ghost Gate on July 15th, so they can force their way into our Lu family's ancestral land."
Having said that, he no longer expected Xiang Sheng to help her.
In such a dangerous place, even a fool would know to take a detour, let alone such a shrewd benefactor?
But how can I get to Xuanwang City alone?
While Lu Zhu was dazed, he suddenly saw a hand reaching out in front of him.
He looked up blankly, confused.
Xiang Sheng pretended to be annoyed and said, "You want me to take risks? You can't just rely on an invisible and intangible mental method, right?"
Lu Zhu was stunned for a moment before reacting. His eyes couldn't stop moistening, and he choked out a sob: "You...you are still willing to help me?"
Xiang Sheng hummed, weighed the hand he extended, and said, "Show some sincerity, otherwise I will leave immediately."
"I'll take it! I'll take it now!"
Lu Zhu wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve and buried his head in searching the storage ring. After a while, his eyes lit up and he took out a leather booklet and handed it to Xiang Sheng.
Xiang Sheng glanced at the outline and exclaimed in surprise, "Secret method?"
"Big brother has good eyesight."
Lu Zhu's eyes were still red at this moment, but a smile appeared on his face. He praised and explained, "This is 'Shapeshifting', a secret technique of our Lu Kingdom. In the past, only direct descendants of the royal family like me were qualified to practice it.
This secret technique only requires one to master the first level to transform one's appearance. If mastered to perfection, even one's own aura can be disguised and altered, making it a powerful tool for evading pursuit.
Of course, this kind of deception is not without flaws. According to my royal elders, if the other party's cultivation level is two small realms higher, they may be able to see through this method in person. For those with even higher cultivation levels, it goes without saying.
"There are all kinds of blinding methods for defects like this. You don't need to say more."
Xiang Sheng closed the booklet, put it away, looked around, and said in a deep voice, "This is not the place to talk. Let's first settle down in the city and make plans."
Hearing this, Lu Zhu's heart finally settled down and he nodded vigorously to show that he understood.
Both of them had some cultivation experience, so their pace was naturally not slow. In just half a day, they crossed the barren mountain and arrived at a small secular town at the foot of the mountain.
Xiang Sheng was dressed in rags, looking like a beggar. Although Lu Zhu's clothes were dirty, they still looked somewhat luxurious. As the two of them walked together and just entered the city, Xiang Sheng noticed at least dozens of eyes sweeping over her.
Xiang Sheng frowned, quickened his pace, and chose an unassuming but bustling inn and walked in.
The waiter who was greeting guests at the inn door saw Xiang Sheng. Before he could say anything disgusted, he saw Lu Zhu following behind him. He was so stunned that he forgot to stop him.
