Zhou Yunqiong didn't hesitate and immediately called Zuo Shu.
"Miss, what are your instructions?"
Zuo Shu appeared, still with the same respectful demeanor as before.
If you carefully observe the aura emanating from him,
you will find that he is also in the Shackles Realm.
And is extremely strong.
At least he has broken through more than ten shackles.
"Did you see the news about the Three Immortal Islands?"
At this moment, Zhou Yunqiong restored her previous calm demeanor and spoke softly.
"I did. Lu Yuan alone subdued the three islands, even the Golden Body Realm couldn't match him, very strong." Zuo Shu nodded; even he was greatly shocked when he saw the news.
He had seen Lu Yuan before the mutation; back then, the other was as ordinary as could be.
But later, through various news, this person rose like a comet, becoming more and more astonishing.
Now, he can even directly crush the existences on the Three Immortal Islands.
How can one not be shocked?
"Lu Yuan will inevitably grow into a significant figure in the future, and such an existence cannot be ignored by the Zhou Family."
Zhou Yunqiong pondered slightly, then said, "So it is necessary to win him over, to make him let go of past grievances."
She knew they must act now and could not delay any longer.
Although the Zhou Family had already contacted the Celestial Race and even the Ji Clan,
powerful figures growing in this world cannot be overlooked, especially since she has a series of plans for the future. If Lu Yuan cooperates, it will certainly be much smoother. Winning him over is imperative.
"But... Miss, this might be a bit difficult, right?" Zuo Shu furrowed his brow.
In his impression, the person had an extremely strong and domineering personality.
Anyone who provoked him,
would surely face his direct and merciless actions.
Such a person is somewhat dissatisfied with both Yi and the Zhou Family; wanting him to let go of past grievances is very difficult.
"Then special methods must be used." Zhou Yunqiong spoke, "Select a few Divine Artifacts from the family, saying they're my token of goodwill, to resolve the misunderstanding."
She believed that Lu Yuan liked her at least at one point, and with this affection and some incentives, even if it couldn't eliminate all displeasure, it could at least ease his resentment.
When the time is right, she would personally have a good talk with him. Winning him over wouldn't be too difficult.
"Understood, do you need me to make a trip to the Taishan Trial Institute?"
Zuo Shu nodded.
For this order, he had no hesitation at all.
"Not just you, also Yi. Let Yi go too."
Zhou Yunqiong spoke again, "Since it is to resolve the misunderstanding, it should be done sincerely. Let Yi apologize to Lu Yuan directly."
In her heart, Lu Yuan's value had already surpassed that of the Winged Celestial God, so she made this decision.
Regarding the various incidents outside the Lishan Imperial Mausoleum back then, she also felt they were somewhat related to Yi.
Therefore, having the person in question concede,
would surely express her utmost sincerity, right?
"This... but the Celestial Race will soon descend, won't doing this cause their displeasure?" Zuo Shu hesitated.
"No worries, I had contact with a prodigy from the Celestial Race before, no problem." Zhou Yunqiong shook her head; the so-called Winged Celestial God was merely a pawn in her plan. Now she's connected with more powerful people.
In her heart, she didn't care much about this person; besides, she has the Ji Clan's background.
The Ji Clan from a more distant Star Realm cares greatly about her lineage, and have signaled to the Celestial Race.
Thus, in this regard, Zhou Yunqiong was completely unworried.
Lineage strength
is her greatest reliance.
"Yes."
Zuo Shu immediately nodded, but soon thought of something and couldn't help but ask, "If in the end, Lu Yuan's attitude remains the same?"
"Refuse?"
Zhou Yunqiong was stunned but did not continue to speak, only looked at Zuo Shu.
"I understand."
Zuo Shu bowed and left the room.
As for Zhou Yunqiong,
she stared at the news in front of her.
Still sitting on the sofa, lost in thought.
...
Taishan Cultivation Institute.
Within a building of quite ancient style.
Elder Ji, Elder Yun, and two other members of the highest seven-person group were all present.
Opposite them was Lu Yuan with a helpless expression, not speaking, just quietly listening.
"King Lu, regarding the people from the Three Immortal Islands, everything is arranged, those in the Shackles Realm and above will go to the various Zhen Dan Academies to serve as instructors or assistants, and the Breathing Techniques and Visualization Techniques they've contributed, which are systematic, will be adapted for teaching based on the students' needs."
Someone spoke, known as Elder Wu, in charge of Zhen Dan Academy and the overall education of the Awakened.
And when he mentioned these things, there was immense excitement in his eyes.
Because he knew, with these people joining,
and with allocable resources,
there would certainly be more individuals cultivated in a short period.
Elder Wu truly hadn't expected the deep heritage of the Three Immortal Islands; now incorporated into the official establishment, it was simply a timely help.
All of this was because of King Lu in front of them.
Of course.
Due to past lessons,
he had already decided to allocate more resources, focusing on a selective few, aiming to create powerful figures with them.
"Indeed, the Sect Leader of the Three Immortal Islands also stated, if there's any place needing their assistance in the future, feel free to ask. When the Exotic Beast Kings cause trouble again, we'll have more ways to respond." Elder Yun also spoke, eyes smiling.
One must know, those existences are all at the Golden Body Realm; with such strong allies, the official strength has greatly increased.
Just give them time, and they will certainly grow stronger, coping with more crises in the future.
"Actually, you can handle these matters yourselves; there's no need to consult me."
Finally, Lu Yuan responded, his words still filled with helplessness.
There's no choice; as long as it's a major event now.
The higher-ups would inform him.
They might even ask for his opinion, making him seem like the ultimate Controller.
Regarding these matters, Lu Yuan wasn't really concerned; after all, they were troublesome.
No matter how much power one holds.
The most crucial thing is one's own strength.
"Yes, we understand." The elders like Ji readily agreed, but who knows what they're really thinking inside.
Because in their eyes, the reason they are able to stabilize the situation now is all thanks to Lu Yuan.
So, regarding some major events, they must at least let him know.
Of course.
Many other issues, the few of them understood, needed to be resolved on their own.
Especially now, as the official forces grow stronger, they stand unparalleled in terms of strong individuals.
Thus.
They must also strengthen themselves.
Afterward, the elders like Ji didn't have much more to say and went on to their busy tasks.
They know this is the best time to gather strength; you never know when the Outer Realm Creatures might suddenly arrive, which will be the true test.
Seeing everyone leave, Lu Yuan couldn't help but shake his head.
Now, all kinds of issues have been resolved.
The next crisis will accompany the second revival of the world, guarding against the Outer Realm Creatures.
Those existences aren't like people from this world, so simple to deal with.
Powerful individuals from major families in each Star Realm are extraordinarily formidable.
Their combat power is strong, and their Divine Techniques are ever-emerging.
So, he himself must advance further, no longer lingering in the Shackles Realm.
Fortunately, there are only eight of the final one hundred and eight locks left to break, reaching the Extreme Shackled Realm.
Once achieved, Lu Yuan is confident he can push through and reach the Golden Body Realm, where one can fly in the air and undergo a physical transformation, significantly increasing combat power.
Then, after some time, move to the fifth stage of evolution, the Venerable King Realm.
The Venerable King Realm, the realm of true kings, at this stage.
One can directly break through the atmosphere.
And survive briefly in space.
In the true sense, it breaks away from the human category!
Lu Yuan knew he must be quick, as too much time has been spent in the Shackles Realm.
Soon.
He started.
It's just eight Genetic Shackles, no need for any aid, his foundation is enough.
Of course, this is the final step, it takes time, but that's no issue, Lu Yuan has plenty of time now.
And as Lu Yuan prepared to break through to the Extreme Shackled Realm.
The official front, due to the inclusion of the Three Immortal Islands.
Finally established a relatively standard route for the evolution of the Awakened.
The Zhen Dan Academy in the five major super cities is also recruiting vigorously.
Meanwhile, the training of geniuses like Ice Fairy, Zhu Qingyu, and Pure Yang Little Celestial Master has intensified, hoping they reach the Shackles Realm soon and then move on to the next step.
For this, Elder Ji and others devised a series of plans, preparing to create a truly powerful Awakened organization.
Equivalent to the Wangyue Pavilion of the Seven.
But the difference is, it consists of leading geniuses.
And, to enter it, one must undergo various tests.
In the future, it will be the core force.
Even for China.
And this organization will have a most powerful leader.
For the candidate, they already have an idea in mind.
So they went straight to Lu Yuan.
Offering him the position.
Of course, he doesn't need to do much, just hold the title, leaving the specifics to others.
And after some thought, Lu Yuan didn't oppose it, knowing they were looking for a role model akin to an idol to motivate students and geniuses, and indeed, he is very suitable now.
However, as for the organization's name, they were stuck, unsure what to call it.
Thought of many, but eventually, all were rejected.
Still, they asked for Lu Yuan's opinion.
The latter was a bit helpless about it too.
But for some reason, he suddenly thought of the Celestial Emperor's Ancient Order in his mind and uttered a name: Heaven.
After hearing it, Elder Ji and others agreed without much thought, finding it very fitting, as the words are mythical and perfect for representing China, so from now on, anyone passing the tests may enter Heaven.
And the Master of Heaven is Lu Yuan.
This organization directly transcended above the official level, becoming the true core.
However...for now, it only contains Lu Yuan.
Geniuses like Ice Fairy, Pure Yang Little Celestial Master.
Though gifted or with a unique bloodline, still do not fully qualify, needing gradual progress.
Soon, the creation of Heaven also began spreading to each Zhen Dan Academy.
Once the students learned Lu Yuan was leading.
They were all very excited.
All wanted to join this organization, believing they could follow King Lu.
This is the effect of having an idol, setting goals for many, making Elder Ji and others' idea quite sound.
Of course, Lu Yuan did not focus on this, staying at the Taishan Trial Institute.
Over a few days, he broke through five more Genetic Shackles.
Leaving only three to reach the extreme.
However.
Just as Lu Yuan was about to continue his breakthrough, he heard that someone from Zhou Yunqiong had come.
