Chapter 43 Son of Destiny "No, I am very satisfied." He Qing said: "If everything goes well, when the next heavenly tribulation comes, I will be able to successfully break through. At present, I am only one step away from the Mahayana." Although what he said was good news, his tone was negative and weak. Lu Li frowned and said, "If that's the case, why do you look like that?" He Qing was amused by his words. He sat up with a "Hey!" and asked in a seemingly casual but serious tone, "You are not surprised at all by this result. You said before that it might have miraculous effects. How did you know about it in advance?" Lu Li seemed very calm after hearing this. Instead of answering, he asked, "Didn't you realize that when you were helping me repair the forbidden spell and calm the evil spirit, you and I worked very well together?" He Qing was slightly startled: She did have this feeling, and not only did she repair the forbidden spell and calm the evil spirit, she also cooperated very well even when she was drawing out the miasma for Lu Li. Lu Li stretched out a finger and gently touched He Qing's chest, and said slowly and ambiguously: "Master, there is a part of me in your body." "Snapped!" He Qing immediately opened his hand and said with disdain: "Don't talk to me like this in your youthful manner. It's disgusting." Lu Li was not angry about this, as he could see that He Qing was ruthless towards "Su Guang", but would be particularly tolerant towards "Lu Li". Lu Li felt amused, and rubbed the back of his red hand, tilted his head innocently and said, "So, Master, do you want to see another side of me?"
"That's not necessary." He Qing refused decisively, not giving Lu Li any chance to get away with it, and then said, "Let's talk business." Lu Li smiled harmlessly, and while sitting cross-legged, he leaned directly on He Qing's shoulder and said nonchalantly: "Master, have you ever thought about why no one has ascended to heaven in the past tens of thousands of years?" He Qing endured the discomfort in his heart and asked inexplicably: "Why should I care whether they can ascend?" Lu Li grasped a strand of hair hanging down from her chest and entangled it with his fingertips, and asked himself calmly, "Since the beginning of the existence of cultivators, the skills you have practiced have been inherited from the power of the ancient gods. Now that the gods are gone, how can you ascend?" "It seems to make some sense." He Qing pondered for a moment and said, "But what does this have to do with what I just asked?" Lu Li chuckled and said, "Then Master, think about it again. Why is it that among all the skills of the immortal sects, only your Yaoguang Sect's Tianxin Jue has the most killing power?" He Qing, who had already begun to be absent-minded, squinted her eyes and pretended to think seriously, and answered uncertainly: "Because, domineering? Hiss..." Before she finished speaking, Lu Li, who was leaning on her shoulder, pulled her hair slightly to draw her attention back. But before He Qing could get angry, Lu Li said quietly, "Because the Tianxin Jue you practiced was created by the Demon God." He Qing was suddenly stunned: "W-what?!" Lu Li sat up straight, and while He Qing was distracted, he gently tidied up her messy hair, saying, "The Heavenly Heart Technique is a technique originally created by the Demon God, and the techniques practiced by the Demon Dao today were left behind after the gods perished and the Demon God was called the Demon God." Even though Lu Li's tone was leisurely as if he was telling a fairy tale, it couldn't stop He Qing's heart from feeling like ten thousand wild horses were galloping through it, and his head was buzzing. She was so shocked that her pupils lost focus and she muttered to herself, "So... I am the descendant of the demon god?" Lu Li paused, as if he didn't like this statement, and corrected it: "I just learned the skills, so I can't be considered a descendant." He Qing came back to his senses and looked at Lu Li in disbelief, shaking his head repeatedly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, the first generation leader of the Yaoguang Sect was one of the main forces that sealed the Demon God, how could he be a descendant of the Demon God?" Lu Li frowned slightly: "I said, not a descendant." But He Qing didn't care about the correct use of adjectives at this time, and asked: "Where did you hear this gossip? Is the news true?" Lu Li looked at her sideways and saw that her expression was different from the lifeless one just now. She was nervous but a little excited. He couldn't help but said with a smile: "Why, Master seems excited to know that the Heaven Heart Sutra was created by the Demon God?" He Qing thought, of course I am excited. If this is true, then it will definitely be the highlight of the second half of the novel! The more I know, the better! Thinking of this, He Qing unconsciously grabbed Lu Li's right hand with both hands: "Tell me how you got the information?" Lu Li's eyes turned and looked at He Qing's slender and soft fingers, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "I don't remember, maybe I saw it somewhere, or heard someone say it."
“……”He Qing: Are you teasing me? But Lu Li said slowly: "I think it's more or less the same. I helped you on the day of your tribulation. Although you were too soft-hearted and didn't allow me to break through, some power remained in your body, which you transformed into spiritual energy for your own use. When you were training with your good disciple, you completely integrated this power, which enabled you to achieve your current level of cultivation." He Qing took a moment to digest everything Lu Li said, counting on his fingers as he muttered, "So, because you practice the magic technique, I can transform your power into spiritual energy?" Lu Li closed his eyes and nodded slightly: "I guess so." "So, when I first repaired the forbidden spell for you, you discovered this, and you knew that if I practiced with Gu Changnian again, my cultivation would have a qualitative leap?" Lu Li raised his eyebrows slightly with an ambiguous tone: "You can say that." He Qing continued expressionlessly: "But you didn't tell me until now." "..." This question was vaguely a bit ominous. Lu Li did not answer immediately. He was silent for a moment before saying, "We can only be sure after trying it." In other words, he treated her as a guinea pig? He Qing looked at Lu Li with dissatisfaction, looked him up and down and said, "Even if I believe what you said, how do you explain Gu Changnian's breakthrough of two realms in a row?" Originally He Qing wanted to see what Lu Li would say next, but Lu Li was quite surprised when he heard it and said, "Break through two realms in a row?" He Qing saw that his reaction did not seem fake, so he put away the temptation and said frankly: "I originally wanted to help him make up for some of his cultivation, but who knew that I would help him break through to the state of out-of-body experience." Lu Li lowered his eyelids when he heard that. When he guided He Qing to practice with Gu Changnian, he had already anticipated that Gu Changnian would improve due to the power he left in He Qing's body, but he didn't expect that he would break through two realms in a row. In Lu Li's eyes, Gu Changnian was nothing more than a cultivator with good qualifications, nothing special. But now... Not knowing what he was thinking of, Lu Li curled his lips with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, and said to himself: "Interesting." He Qing, who was standing by, felt his heart sink slightly when he saw him like this. If Lu Li didn't know that this result would occur, then could it be that the male protagonist's halo was at work again? (End of this chapter)
