"Is that so?"
Lu Yuan appeared before Zhen Xuan with a calm expression and a smile brimming with aning, leaving Zhen Xuan’s heart tumultuous, uncertain whether the other party was acknowledging the truth or rely being polite.
The man before him, School Leader Lu, was drastically different from the King of Chu from his initial impression.
This drastic difference was not about appearance.
The two n’s appearances were not entirely identical, but they were almost indistinguishable, as though carved from the sa mold.
Judging only from this aspect, the two of them could be considered the sa person.
But in other respects, such as temperant, aura, magic power, divine soul, and so on, they were entirely different.
How heroic was the initial King of Chu?
Rising from a Hunter in tis of chaos, he quelled the rebellion in a province and established a foundation for the feudal lords.
Thereafter, he founded a nation and claid sovereignty, pushing back the Zhou People in the north and pacifying the barbarians in the west. Commanding a million strong, holding half the province’s territory, he was a hero of the world, renowned for his dominant rule.
Back then, the King of Chu had an edge that could not be hidden, dominating the world and intimidating those who dared not gaze upon him. His rage made the feudal lords tremble, his peace subdued the world.
But now, School Leader Lu, his sharpness concealed, was indifferent to fa and fortune, his words tactful and devoid of grand ambitions.
The personalities and temperants of the two n were as different as night and day.
Their divine souls and auras seed like two different beings.
The Dao Law they cultivated was also dissimilar, with a vast difference in the nature of their magic power.
In truth, apart from their identical appearances, they were essentially two different people.
This stark divergence was one of the reasons Lu Yuan daringly stepped forward into the public eye.
In terms of appearance, he had no intention to change it.
Regarding temperant, he had transford from a sovereign emperor to a carefree immortal wandering eternity, influenced over the centuries. The original temperant, once intentionally repressed, would naturally vanish, to be replaced by another.
As for the magic power, after uniting the Nine Provinces, he had long since changed his main cultivation thod, giving the Taiping Daoist thod a major upgrade, changing it right from the roots.
The magic power cultivated from the new Taiping Daoist thod was, of course, a different one.
And with the foundation of the cultivation thod altered, influenced by this change, especially when he broke through in his cultivation and transford into an immortal, his divine soul and aura naturally underwent a tamorphosis.
After the transformation was complete, he was at a different level of existence, naturally distinct from his past.
And these differences, when put together in sum.
Apart from his unchanged appearance, everything else about Lu Yuan, inside and out, from skin to bone, from body to soul, had already beco another person.
Under such circumstances, as long as he did not acknowledge it, others naturally could not confirm his true identity.
This was also what led to Zhen Xuan’s current hesitation.
’Could it be, as I previously speculated, that the current School Leader Lu is the reincarnated being of the forr King of Chu?
Having failed to escape the calamity of the Nine Provinces, he fell during the End of Dharma era.
Ultimately, his soul was lucky enough to be reincarnated into the Immortal Realm, then entered the Taiping Tao Sect, achieving what he has today?’
Such a conjecture involuntarily arose in Zhen Xuan’s heart, surprise and doubt mixing within him.
Because it was possible.
Within the Immortal Realm, most beings would have their souls dissolve into the ether, Between Heaven and Earth, after their passing. A minority might be collected by various domains of the Yin World, entering the Underworld to beco wandering ghosts.
However, there were also those with successful cultivation or the lucky ones who could retain a sliver of their true essence, with their divine souls not extinguishing after dissolution. They would reconvene their spirit, and under the cycles of the Heavenly Path, they would reincarnate and live a second life.
In the Immortal Realm, basically becoming a True Immortal ant ensuring the indestructibility of the True Spirit, allowing for reincarnation.
And with so many inhabitants in the Immortal Realm, across such a vast population, naturally, there were lucky individuals; among billions, there would be one or two who might have the fortune to reincarnate and restart life.
If the King of Chu, Lu Yuan, was lucky enough, even if his cultivation was insufficient, it was possible for him to live a second life.
After all, he was a person of great Qi Luck, likely having gathered the last of the Nine Provinces’ Qi Luck. With such a foundation, preserving the True Spirit to live a second life wasn’t too phenonal.
Given the King of Chu’s Lifespan, a thousand years or so would have passed since his reincarnation up to now.
A thousand years were enough, as long as one could enter a Great Immortal Sect. With the innate talent and foundation carried by the reincarnated soul of the King of Chu, achieving what School Leader Lu has today would be quite reasonable.
In the end, the last Qi Luck of a world is also extraordinary.
’However, if that really is the case, my initial idea to foster an alliance with School Leader Lu, as a fellow from the Jiuzhou Immortal Gate, just got more challenging.
If he were the King of Chu, we could share a connection as fellow countryn.
But if it is a reincarnated being, not even incense affinity would be possible to cling to, so how much favor could I expect from him?’
After the True Spirit reincarnates and is reborn, that is completely a different person.
The soul, mory, personality—all are reshaped anew, impossible to be like the past life.
Just like a broken sword being reforged, lted into molten tal, and reforged anew.
The two cannot be the sa sword.
The sa goes for the reincarnation of the True Spirit.
This was also the worst possible outco for Zhen Xuan.
"It doesn’t matter whether Daoist friend is my old companion or not, I am willing, and I also wish to be friends with Daoist friend. My Purple Cloud Sect, as well as the Jiuzhou Immortal Gate, feel the sa.
I have prepared a place for you within my Mountain Gate, waiting for Daoist friend’s visit."
Regardless of whether he was right or wrong in his guess, Zhen Xuan decided to first win over School Leader Lu.
Improving relations with the Taiping Dao was the most crucial.
Everything else would co later.
"Daoist friend, I also wish for the Taiping Dao and Jiuzhou to maintain good relations for generations to co, without resorting to conflict."
Lu Yuan nodded with a sincere smile.
Nonsense.
He had been courting Jiuzhou all these years, what else for?
