Chapter 367: Chapter 201: Starting to Reveal Cards
Translator: 549690339
“General, just after eight months, you have already stepped into the Innate realm and beco a Grandmaster. Truly a hero of our ti.”
Since Lu Yuan ntioned Lan Cai’er by na, she could no longer remain aloof and had to respond, offering a slight complint as she did so.
At the sa ti, she couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Lu Yuan.
Truth be told, when she tried to assassinate Lu Yuan last ti, he was protected by Yan Wangqiu, and she didn’t have a direct confrontation with him.
However, at that ti, Lu Yuan’s Inner Qi field revealed when facing the assassination already showed so signs of being an external body.
From that mont on, Lan Cai’er knew that it would only be a matter of ti before he broke through the Innate realm.
However, even so, she never expected that day to co so quickly.
Moreover, not only did that day co quickly, but she also beca the fiancée of this man she had been trying to kill, all within a year.
She couldn’t quite accept the massive change in her identity and the strangeness of the situation.
She really didn’t know how to face this man who was both her enemy and her future husband.
Especially since she still harbored hatred towards Lu Yuan, the discrepancy and conflict of her emotions made her even more uncomfortable.
‘However, before my father left, he asked to get closer to this man. If possible, consummate our relationship, creating a true bond between husband and wife, and bearing his child.
Only then could the Holy Sect and our clan gain so protection and support.’
To agree to this marriage and marry an enemy was already difficult. As a girl, there was no way she could do sothing so shaful.
When Lan Cai’er thought of what her father had said previously, she felt both ashad and angry as well as miserable and resentful.
The unraveling of her life, from once being a Holy Sect saintess, an Inborn Grandmaster, to now being reduced to entertaining a man, was nothing short of a tragedy.
Yet, for the sake of her clan and the Holy Sect, she had no choice but to submit and obey her father’s instructions.
But ultimately, it wasn’t her wish.
So when facing Lu Yuan, she could only maintain a cold and standoffish deanor, clinging to what little dignity she had left.
Fortunately, the enemy General in front of her had not humiliated her too much.
On the contrary, he had shown her considerable respect, which gave her so relief and made her feel not so miserable.
As for the many thoughts in the heart of this saintess, Lu Yuan was unaware and could not fathom them.
However, after hearing her complint, he shook his head modestly and said, “It took over thirty years to accidentally break through the Innate realm, far less talented than Miss Lan. I am ashad, truly ashad.”
Lu Yuan was genuinely in awe of Lan Cai’er’s martial arts talent.
He had encountered many adventures, so after sixteen years of martial arts practice, he broke through the Innate realm at the age of 31, which could be considered a rare feat.
However, Lan Cai’er was even more exceptional.
She broke through the Innate realm at the age of 26, five years younger than Lu Yuan.
Although it had a lot to do with the support of her entire sect and clan, which enabled her to save a considerable amount of ti accumulating Inner Strength.
However, even so, while Inner Strength could be supplented by the Divine Blood Elixir, the realm of mind and cultivation were not things that could be made up for externally.
Lan Cai’er had to cultivate herself to a ntal state capable of supporting a Grandmaster before she could wield the power of the Innate realm.
As for Lu Yuan, he read Taoist Classics for sixteen years and relied on the accumulation of the Attribute Panel to bridge this gap.
However, this saintess did not have such ans to cheat.
To reach such a ntal state at the age of twenty-six was purely due to talent.
Therefore, praising her for her talent and intelligence was by no ans excessive.
This woman was truly stronger than him.
Hearing Lu Yuan express his sincere admiration, Lan Cai’er couldn’t help but feel a little delighted in her heart.
After all, this was the acknowledgent from an enemy, and a Grandmaster of the sa level as her.
Although she was happy, she remained level-headed and didn’t beco smug. She simply said, “I have been fortunate to have famous teachers since childhood, and the support of the Holy Sect’s thousand years of accumulation. Today’s achievents are not my own.
On the other hand, General Lu started from humble beginnings, and his achievents today are all due to his own efforts, far surpassing soone like who relies on the legacy of others.”
While Lu Yuan admired Lan Cai’er’s talent and intelligence,
In fact, this saintess also sowhat admired his rags-to-riches story.
Today, Lu Yuan’s background and encounters in recent years have co to light.
Anyone with so power could investigate his background.
And anyone who saw this investigation had to admit one thing.
That this forr mountain hunter, although fortunate, worked hard and was talented enough to achieve what he has today.
This was a true Heaven’s Gifted Talent.
Otherwise, how could an illiterate hunter think of learning to read, practicing martial arts, studying Taoism, learning how to command soldiers and fight in wars…
How could he seize all these opportunities and achieve such martial arts and success today?
Any of these accomplishnts alone would have made a person a local hero.
When all of these achievents are combined, if this isn’t Heaven’s Gifted Talent, what else could it be?
At any rate, Lan Cai’er reflected that if she were at Lu Yuan’s starting point, most likely, she would have earned enough money hunting to buy land and property at the foot of the mountain and then gotten married and had children.
At the very best, she would have practiced so martial arts and made a na for herself locally.
And that would have already been her limit.
