"Tianqi... there's sothing I want to talk to you about," Lu Tianyue said, looking at her quiet sister, deciding it was better to clear things up. Otherwise, her sister, who had just started to beco cheerful, might be greatly shocked and either revert back to her old self or close herself off entirely, neither of which Lu Tianyue wanted to see.
After all, she still hoped her sister would support the Lu Family.
"Is it... about Brother Tianming?" Lu Tianqi asked her sister, her eyes suddenly reddening, and she said softly, "He's not Brother Tianming; he's Chu Mo, right?"
"You guessed?" Lu Tianyue looked at her sister sowhat awkwardly.
Lu Tianqi nodded gently, "From the mont they called him Master Chu, I had my suspicions. At that ti, I just found it strange why Brother Tianming, who hadn't co back for so many years, appeared just after our side had an incident. The timing was too coincidental! But back then, there were no flaws on him, so even though I had my doubts, they soon disappeared. Because he was always trying his best to help us. Just like one of our family mbers."
Lu Tianqi continued softly, "So, from that ti, I never doubted him again, treating him as Brother Tianming. But recently, I felt sothing was not right, because he was too mysterious. And looking at his arrangents, it was clear he was planning for the whole of Jinxiu City, not just to help the Lu Family. But I still didn't have many doubts; it's normal for a great man to have so ambition. But today... after I heard the three words 'Master Chu,' I finally understood everything. In fact, there has never been a Brother Tianming; there has only ever been one person. The one who bullied ... Chu Mo."
Lu Tianyue's face grew even more awkward, and she seed sowhat guilty.
"Also, he is the Chu Mo who saved , who saved the entire Lu Family," Lu Tianqi added. "You knew very early on, right? No... you didn't just know early on; this matter was planned by you from the beginning! Otherwise, he couldn't have impersonated him so perfectly, without a single flaw!"
Lu Tianyue gave a bitter smile, "You're right, I knew from the beginning; his identity was also arranged by . Keeping it from you was..."
"Sister, I don't bla you," Lu Tianqi said quietly. "Though I was mischievous in the past, I wasn't soone who couldn't appreciate kindness from malice."
"..." Lu Tianyue looked at her sister, who appeared extraordinarily calm, feeling a bit uneasy.
At that mont, Lu Tianqi suddenly showed a mischievous smile and looked at Lu Tianyue, "But sister, you all deceived quite miserably! Am I really that unreasonable?"
"No, that's not it," Lu Tianyue tried to explain.
Lu Tianqi gave a light chuckle, "Sister, I really don't bla you. I just feel... just feel a bit, strange." Saying this, Lu Tianqi pursed her lips, lifted her head, and gazed into the distance, speaking softly, "Soone you've hated deeply for a long ti suddenly becos the great benefactor who saved you and your family... This feeling, how to say it, is indeed a bit strange."
Lu Tianqi, looking at her sister, then asked, "Right, if he isn't Brother Tianming, what happened to Brother Tianming?"
Lu Tianyue's face slightly changed, she sighed lightly, but did not answer.
Lu Tianqi's face gradually turned pale, and after a long silence, she asked softly, "He's gone, isn't he?"
Lu Tianyue nodded gently, "For a long ti now."
"I see, I really should have thought of it just now, asking only adds to the agitation. If Brother Tianming were still alive, with all the commotion Chu Mo has caused by impersonating him, he would have reacted sohow. This truly is sad news," Lu Tianqi sighed softly. "If only he were truly Brother Tianming, that would have been so much better!"
"Tianqi, you... you don't really like him, do you?" Lu Tianyue asked her sister with so concern.
Lu Tianqi shook her head, "What's the use of liking? Haven't you seen the group of exceptionally beautiful won around him?"
"No, you're wrong," Lu Tianyue said seriously, looking at her sister. "I can feel it; those won might have intentions towards him, but he... he definitely does not hold them in his heart!"
"Hmm?" Lu Tianqi looked at her sister with so surprise.
"Stop thinking about it, let it be. Such things..." Lu Tianyue laughed at herself sowhat, thinking: Silly little sister, if it were possible, wouldn't your sister try to win him over? Even if it ant both of us marrying him, if he agreed, I wouldn't hesitate! Such a man... is destined to soar across the heavens, and to be by his side would be a trendous happiness! Unfortunately...
Lu Tianyue looked at her sister and said softly, "Now that you know, but regarding his identity..."
"Don't worry, sister, I'm not that foolish. Unless he reveals it himself one day, he will always be my Brother Tianming!" Lu Tianqi, equally clever, understood her sister's concerns and responded with a smile.
"That's good to hear!" Lu Tianyue finally felt relieved and smiled.
Although Miao Yi Niang and the others had just arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, they had integrated into this place in the shortest ti possible.
So, even though the Lu sisters were becoming more familiar with the place, comparatively, they seed like guests, while Miao Yi Niang and her group felt like the real masters of the house.
Chu Mo took the opportunity while everyone was busy preparing food and chatting to visit the backyard, where he saw the Fire Dragon, as well as Xiao Wanjun and Li Fangzhong, who were also cultivating there.
Chu Mo first visited the Fire Dragon.
The proud Fire Dragon, upon seeing Chu Mo, was very pleased and even transford into a middle-aged man enveloped in flas to chat with Chu Mo for a while.
When the Fire Dragon learned that Chu Mo's friends had provoked the Ouyang Family of Qingfeng City, he waved his hand indifferently, "They're just a bunch of chickens and dogs, not worth ntioning! If they dare to co, I assure you they won't return!"
Chu Mo looked at the Fire Dragon and asked, "Are you sure? If they co out in full force, a group of Primordial Infant peak experts, can you handle them all?"
The Fire Dragon laughed proudly, glancing at Chu Mo, "Kid, there's no need to provoke . Although in this world, I can only exert the power of a Primordial Infant peak, my presence alone is enough to make all of them unable to even budge! A bunch of insignificant cultivators, even those from the Heavenly Realm, how many of them dare to act recklessly before ?"
Chu Mo smiled. Although the Fire Dragon seed to be boasting a bit, it wasn't excessive. In the Spirit Realm, there truly were few cultivators who could withstand the pressure of the Fire Dragon.
Perhaps, that Blood Demon Ancestor... should be counted among them? Chu Mo thought, feeling that he should break through to the Primordial Infant realm as soon as possible, as only then could he truly take control of his own destiny.
Otherwise, relying on anyone else was only a temporary solution, not a long-term strategy.
Afterward, Chu Mo bid farewell to the Fire Dragon and went to et Xiao Wanjun and Li Fangzhong.
These two forr Primordial Infant peak powerhouses, having recovered over a period of ti, were vastly different from before!
Looking at the two vibrant young n before him, Chu Mo could hardly believe his eyes, thinking, are these really the sa as those two skin-and-bones, nearly dead old n from the black prison?
"Xiao Wanjun..."
"Li Fangzhong..."
"We greet the master!" The two said in unison, bowing with a fist to Chu Mo.
