Looking at Xu Zile’s dumbfounded expression, Xu Ziyu felt guilty and did not dare say that she was why his face was swollen.

If she told him the truth, she feared that Xu Zile would kill her on the spot.

However, someone aside from her knew the truth. The human cultivator, standing at the entrance and who was considered handsome even in the Qingqiu Clan, had seen everything.

Fortunately, the other party was not in the mood to expose her. Xu Zile accepted that his face was bruised because he had landed face-first.

After this little episode, Xu Ziyu also came back to her senses.

She looked at Lu Yuan and asked tentatively, “Are you Lu Yuan from the Qingyun Sect?”

Lu Yuan didn’t answer her question immediately. Instead, he warned, “Before 1 answer your question, you’d better tell me your purpose for coming here. This will determine the patriarch’s punishment for you.”

The two fox demons were on high alert when they heard him say this. Could the patriarch be the Sword Celestial who suppressed them?

Xu Ziyu’s fluffy ears pricked when she heard Lu Yuan’s blatant threat. She immediately corrected her attitude.

At the moment, she had long lost the arrogance she once had when she first came to the Lower Realm.

Now, if anyone said that a cultivator from the Upper Realm could easily defeat several cultivators from the Lower Realm, Xu Ziyu would definitely pick on the liar and give them a good beating.

Times had changed. Even the cultivators of the Lower Realm were not to be trifled with.

Xu Ziyu initially suspected that the person who defeated them was Lu Yuan.

After all, the mystical black tortoise made of Paper Men was only at the Core Formation Stage at first.

Lu Yuan was also a Core Formation Stage cultivator in the Lower Realm.

However, after Lu Yuan sent out his clone, Xu Ziyu no longer felt that the person they were dealing with was Lu Yuan.

It was because the techniques that the clone had displayed were too brutal.

Even now, Xu Ziyu still had lingering fear towards that shocking sword.

She felt suffocated whenever she recalled the sensation of being crushed by the sword, which was akin to a mountain.

In her opinion, Lu Yuan, a Core Formation Stage cultivator from the Lower Realm, could not possibly unleash such terrifying strength and means.

Xu Ziyu had heard of Core Formation Stage monstrous figures who could activate Dharma Idols.

However, she did not believe such geniuses would stay in the Lower Realm, where resources were scarce.

She also refused to believe that Lu Yuan was one of those geniuses.

After all, the probability of Lu Yuan being a Core Formation Stage genius was too low.

Therefore, Xu Ziyu and Xu Zile immediately assumed that the patriarch Lu Yuan mentioned was the Sword Celestial who defeated them a few days ago.

For them, losing to a Nascent Soul Stage elderly cultivator was obviously more acceptable than losing to a Core Formation Stage cultivator from the Lower Realm.

Xu Ziyu and Xu Zile would have gone nuts if they were to believe that they had lost to a Core Formation Stage cultivator from the Lower Realm, even with their combined strength.

Moreover, the two of them actually had a basic understanding of Lu Yuan’s abilities.

After all, Meng Ruyan’s pursuers thoroughly investigated what she had been through in the Lower Realm.

They knew Lu Yuan was Meng Ruyan’s junior brother and had cultivated for a shorter time than her.

Let alone Lu Yuan, even Meng Ruyan had not reached the Nascent Soul Stage.

After mentally going through what she knew and what she thought had happened, Xu Ziyu secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

At least for now, Lu Yuan and the Qingyun Sect did not bear malice to her and Xu Zile.

Perhaps they had also guessed that she and Xu Zile had extraordinary backgrounds and did not want to cause trouble.

With this thought in mind, Xu Ziyu directly told Lu Yuan the truth.

Lu Yuan found the situation troublesome after learning they had come to the Lower Realm ahead of time because of the thousand-year battle.

He had never expected that not long after the Immortal Ascension Assembly ended, the members of the Upper Realm would come to the Lower Realm so soon to cause trouble again.

Moreover, the members of the Upper Realm targeted Moongazer Serpent.

In another 60 years, the thousand-year battle would begin in the Lower Realm.

At that time, the attention of the cultivators from the Spirit Sword Sect and the Demon Clan from the Upper Realm would undoubtedly be on Moongazer Serpent.

It was undoubtedly difficult for him to hide and cultivate in secret in such an environment.

Fortunately, he still had 60 years. He could break through to the Nascent Soul Stage within that time.

Lu Yuan felt he would have no problem, at least in self-protection.

Moreover, he could also use this opportunity to enter the Upper Realm.

After all, although the Lower Realm could accommodate Apotheosis Stage cultivators, cultivators here only cultivated to the Nascent Soul Stage at most.

Lu Yuan could forcefully break through to the Apotheosis Stage at the Lower Realm. However, not only would his growth be limited by the resources here, but he would also be restricted by the way of the heavens in the Lower Realm. The gains would not make up for the losses.

Lu Yuan was stable but would not do a losing deal.

With the resources of the Lower Realm, he could barely achieve the same result as cultivating in the Upper Realm.

However, if the way of the heavens restricted him, his cultivation speed would fall behind others severalfold.

Moreover, he did not dare to guarantee that he would not garner the attention of the members of the Upper Realm after he broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage.

As a steady person, Lu Yuan felt it was better for him to prepare more.

He should make preparations assuming that anyone who could break through to the Nascent Soul Stage in the Lower Realm would be targeted by members of the Upper Realm.

On the other side, Xu Ziyu and Xu Zile saw Lu Yuan fall silent after they finished speaking.

Xu Zile thought that Lu Yuan was offended by them secretly coming over to investigate him. He immediately gave his sister, Xu Ziyu, a look..
