"It's ti for you to know my secret!" Lu Yao's idea was to slowly reveal his special qualities bit by bit.
Li Pei laughed, "Geniuses all have their secrets. But I bet I can guess yours~"
Anyone who can undergo a Blood-Exchange at the age of 20 must have had so 'extraordinary encounters', everyone who knows, understands.
The girl circled around Lu Yao, speaking in a delicate voice, "You have a Mystic Cultivation Manual, unique Alchemy thods... and also—powerful Firearms~ am I right~"
Li Pei, who had been in Yunzhou with them for a while, had long noticed so clues.
From Master Pang at the beginning to the Hailong Gang, and the top echelons of the Opium company, all had died under powerful Firearms, and she even secretly helped cover it up.
Lu Yao gave a thumbs up, "You guessed it all! However... it might be a bit different from what you imagine. Now~ let show you a piece of Firearms."
"Speaking of Firearms~" Li Pei said with a smile, "I've brought sothing powerful that has just been developed, you should take a look first."
Lu Yao was curious and followed Li Pei to her car.
The girl opened the trunk and took out a strange-looking automatic cannon with a magazine inserted vertically at the top.
"This is the latest weapon—the Italian Canon!" Li Pei introduced proudly:
"The great powers have been waging continuous wars, with tens of thousands dying every day, and weapons are being updated and replaced especially quickly.
This Italian Canon has a caliber of 25MM, much more powerful than a gun, and more portable than a cannon, specifically designed to counter Knights, and of course, Martial Artists as well."
The girl aid at a large tree in the distance and pulled the trigger, and with a series of muffled bangs, the Italian Canon fired, blasting a tree as thick as a bowl in half.
The full na of this weapon was the "Fiat Automatic Cannon".
The muzzle velocity barely exceeded the speed of sound, and the power was average. Despite having a larger caliber, its destructive power seed to be on par with a .50 machine gun.
As for the rate of fire... it was semi-automatic, not yet fully automatic.
"How about that! With this thing, we can perfectly leverage our Spirit Refining Stage! Even if ten Blood-Exchanged attackers surrounded us, we wouldn't have the slightest fear!"
Watching the girl's proud deanor, Lu Yao politely complinted, "Not bad, it's okay."
Li Pei imdiately sensed her lord's insincerity and, not convinced, said, "Co on~ let's see yours. I want to see how impressive it really is~"
What she had was the newly developed Italian Canon, and even Einheit was purchasing and even copying it!

The two went to Liao Ya and Liao Qe's room.
The sisters hadn't slept yet. Liao Ya asked curiously, "Is the purification done?"
"It's done, and Grandmaster Yu has left." Lu Yao said, "Bring out the Fire God Cannon, teach Li Pei how to use it. She might need it tomorrow."
"You're going to deal with the 'Rat Envoy'?" Liao Ya imdiately guessed her junior brother's plan.
"Yes, you three will provide support with the Fire God Cannon, I'll be the main force using my airplane."
Li Pei was sowhat confused and about to speak when she suddenly froze—Liao Qe had pulled out sothing thick and big from under the bed, the very Fire God Cannon!
This was a Gatling Gun composed of six barrels, embodying the cold, hard beauty of modern machinery.
"This… this… what is this…" At this mont, the widely knowledgeable Commandery Princess was sowhat at a loss for words.
Her pale hands tinged with blush gently touched the thick and big Fire God Cannon, then she lifted it.
Liao Qe patiently instructed, "Hold it like this, this is the trigger, press it and it will fire..."
Li Pei, holding the two-ter-long, thigh-thick Fire God Cannon, aid at the distant mountain top in a daze and pressed the trigger.

The six barrels rotated, spitting out half-ter-long flas, as the 20mm Cannonballs barrelled out like a storm, and amid the noise like a jackhamr hitting a wall, soil and rock were thrown into the air, clearing an empty spot on the mountain.

Li Pei also felt the huge recoil force driving her feet deep into the ground as shell casings littered the area around her feet.
She looked at the weapon in her hands in disbelief, "This could kill soone of the Innate stage..."
"We've killed several of them already, most of them Western Demon Beasts," Liao Qe boasted proudly.
"Killed several..." Li Pei's worldview was shattered and was now reshaping itself.
She of course knew that Lu Yao was no ordinary person. When he distributed food, it was in the millions of tons! He gave a whole vat of Innate elixirs! He definitely had extraordinary adventures and secrets.
Following the rules and tacit agreents, Li Pei didn't ask or probe, fearing her husband-to-be's taboo. But unexpectedly, he had set off a thunderclap in her head!
Seeing the Royal Lady with her eyes wide in shock, Liao Qe couldn't help but let out a snort of laughter, then pretended to be serious and said,
"Peipei, you're about to enter our family's door, so I'm telling you so things in advance, but in the future, you shouldn't be so flustered by every little surprise."
"You dare to laugh at , you brat! And~ don't call by my nickna!" Li Pei ca back to her senses and slapped the younger girl's pert backside hard, producing a crisp smack.
"Of course, I know that my husband-to-be is extraordinary, I was just too surprised earlier."
"Your jaw almost hit the floor~"
After so playful bickering, Liao Ya, standing to the side with a smile, chid in, "Sister Li Pei, there are even stranger things to co in the future, so prepare yourself ntally."
"Huh?" Li Pei couldn't imagine what could make her lose composure more, but after today's shock, accepting future surprises would likely be easier.
Tomorrow was Wan Shou Banquet, and everyone needed to rise early, so they all went to bed early.
Li Pei saw the sisters hide the Fire God Cannon under the bed and couldn't help but have another round of complaints!
She had been sleeping on that bed for half a month, never knowing that she had been lying on top of a deadly weapon!
Tonight, although Li Pei went to bed early, she did not sleep well.
Several tis she couldn't help but think to inquire about the sisters' lord's origins, but she held back every ti.
"To be favored by my lord, let him tell himself~"
Imagining the wonderful life after her wedding, Li Pei finally fell asleep in the latter part of the night.

The Izumo Embassy.
Lu Yao had long wanted to kill the "Rat Envoy," and coincidentally, this man was also thinking about him.
At the mont, Kotaro Komura was weaving a Straw Man while asking, "What are the chances of winning the duel tomorrow?"
Standing beside him was the Embassy Military Officer—Mitsuomi Kamiya.
"Using the 'Demon Brain,' I've calculated a 90% chance of victory."
Mitsuomi Kamiya's school, the Ji Martial Path, possessed a very special thod— allowing the brain to enter deep hibernation and engaging in "imaginary combat simulations."
It ant envisioning an environnt and opponent identical to the real world and engaging in a fight to the death.
The simulations were so realistic they could be confused with the real thing, particularly since Mitsuomi Kamiya had witnessed Lu Yao's five consecutive matches and could now recreate nearly 100% accurate combat scenarios.
In the past three days, he had simulated a hundred life-and-death battles in his mind, with a winning rate of—93%.
Kotaro Komura stuck a finger into his mouth and suddenly yanked out a tooth.
He handed the bloody tooth to his subordinate and said, "Add this to it, and make sure there's a 100% chance of killing him. It's very important to !"
"Yes, sir!" Mitsuomi Kamiya received it respectfully with both hands.
A cultivator at the Out-of-Body stage could use various mysterious and strange techniques by projecting their spirit, but using external objects would always result in so loss of power, and using one's own body could unleash full power!
