After the thunderstorm completely wiped out the wolf bandits, it left behind a large area of scorched earth, nearly a hundred meters long.
"What a spectacular scene!"
"Uncle Serpent Spear, can you discern the specific soul power of this being in the sky?"
Xue Qinghe turned to look at the Serpent Spear Douluo standing beside him and asked with a curious expression.
"It won't exceed the Soul King level at most, and it might even be lower."
"This strange phenomenon must have been caused by his soul skill."
Serpent Spear Douluo spoke calmly. At first, Lu Yuan's appearance with its own strange phenomena had indeed startled him, and even made him somewhat wary.
But when he saw the soul skill that Lu Yuan released, he instantly saw through Lu Yuan's true strength.
"Not even a Soul King? What an interesting Soul Skill!"
"They saved us, so I think we should thank them."
Xue Qinghe immediately became curious about Lu Yuan's soul skill that had caused such an unusual phenomenon.
They also became somewhat interested in Lu Yuan, who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere and uttered such arrogant words.
When thunder rolls across the clouds, when lightning illuminates the earth, I come with the storm, bringing the wrath of the gods!
What arrogant words! Even he, and even his own grandfather, wouldn't dare to say such things.
Interesting, truly interesting. I'd love to meet someone so interesting.
Snow brother!
Chapter 14 Traveling with Xue Qinghe!
Lu Yuan stood in the sky, looking at Xue Qinghe and the Serpent Spear Douluo walking towards him. He was slightly taken aback, and after thinking for a moment, he ultimately decided not to leave.
Upon landing, Lu Yuan deactivated his Martial Soul Possession and showed a friendly expression as he looked at Xue Qinghe and the Serpent Spear Douluo approaching him.
Upon seeing Serpent Spear Douluo and Xue Qinghe, Lu Yuan knew he had made a pointless move.
Leaving aside the noble young man in white robes, even the guard in golden armor beside him was someone I couldn't see through.
Strong, absolutely strong!
They might even be stronger than Contra.
Upon seeing the swan-shaped carriage, Lu Yuan suddenly had a guess: could the two people in front of him be Qian Renxue, who was impersonating Xue Qinghe, and the Serpent Spear Douluo?
Whether in the original novel or the anime, Serpent Spear Douluo always seems to be wearing golden armor.
Thinking about this, Lu Yuan really didn't know whether to feel lucky or unlucky.
Lu Yuan didn't feel any ill will towards Qian Renxue; he just felt that the girl was a bit silly.
With innate soul power at level 20, he actually went on some kind of undercover mission, all for the sake of stealing a country.
Lu Yuan felt that if he had her background and talent, he would never be foolish enough to go on a mission to steal a country.
This is simply a waste of talent. After all, with Qian Renxue's talent, she would have become a titled Douluo at least after twenty years of cultivation, if not a god. It's not like she only became a Soul Saint when she was almost thirty in the future storyline.
Just as Lu Yuan was making his guesses, Xue Qinghe had already arrived in front of him with the Serpent Spear Douluo.
Xue Qinghe looked at Lu Yuan, a hint of surprise appearing on her face.
He's so young! That kind of attack was delivered by such a little guy.
He would never have believed it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.
However, it is precisely such young prodigies who are worth winning over.
"Thank you for your help, young man. I am Xue Qinghe."
"I do not know your name, young brother. I am deeply grateful for your life-saving grace and will do my best to repay you."
Xue Qinghe spoke gently, already feeling a sense of goodwill towards Lu Yuan, whom she was meeting for the first time.
Hearing Xue Qinghe's words, Lu Yuan was also shaken.
Just as I had guessed, it really was Qian Renxue and the Serpent Spear Douluo.
"Greetings, Your Highness. My name is Lu Yuan. Please do not speak of such a life-saving grace. It was I who meddled in your affairs. With this senior here, even if I had not intervened, Your Highness would not have been harmed."
Lu Yuan shook his head, and without pretending not to know Xue Qinghe, he gave a slight bow and spoke modestly.
"Oh, Brother Lu Yuan, you know me?"
Xue Qinghe's gentle smile faltered slightly, then he asked with an even wider smile.
"The crown prince of a country, the future ruler of the world, even though I come from a rural background, I naturally have some understanding of him."
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Xue Qinghe's eyes flashed with ambition and fervor.
Wasn't that precisely why she came to the Heavenly Dou Empire to replace Xue Qinghe?
Ruler of all under heaven, what an alluring title!
If she could truly become the ruler of the world as Lu Yuan described in the future, that woman's face would certainly be quite a sight.
"But it's all for my father's sake. I only ask to do something for the people."
“Brother Lu Yuan saved my life, so you may call me Brother Xue from now on, and I will call you Brother Lu.”
Looking at Xue Qinghe's gentle expression in front of him, Lu Yuan knew she was a woman disguised as a man, but he couldn't help but feel a bit of goodwill towards her.
"Then I shall presume to address Your Highness as Brother Xue."
Lu Yuan smiled adorably. He was only seven years old at the time, and his handsome little face was full of collagen, making him incredibly charming.
Even Qian Renxue, who had been an undercover agent since she was nine years old, was unaware of Lu Yuan's thoughts at this moment.
Thinking that Lu Yuan had been touched by his friendliness, he burst into laughter: "Then from today onwards, Brother Lu, we are friends."
"I see you're all alone, Brother Lu. Are you also heading to Tiandou City?"
This is the only way to Tiandou City. Since Lu Yuan is here, it is quite normal for Xue Qinghe to have such thoughts.
"Yes, I want to go to Tiandou City to see what it's like. I just saw the wolf bandits and thought the caravan was about to be attacked, so I instinctively took action."
"Sorry, senior, I took your chance."
Lu Yuan apologized to the Serpent Spear Douluo not far to his side in a cute way.
"fine."
"When you see injustice, you should draw your sword to help. This is exactly what we Soul Masters should do. You don't need to take this small matter to heart."
Serpent Spear Douluo shook his head and responded coldly.
He didn't really care at all. After all, only fallen soul masters would secretly hold a grudge about stealing kills. He was just enjoying his freedom by not taking action.
Looking at Lu Yuan, even the Serpent Spear Douluo was secretly shocked.
What terrifying talent! As a Title Douluo, he had already sensed Lu Yuan's specific soul power through such close observation.
To be able to unleash such a powerful soul skill at level 20, he's truly a little monster.
Serpent Spear Douluo glanced at his own prince and couldn't help but shake his head.
Such powerful soul skills are not a big problem for His Highness now, but His Highness at level 20 is really far from being able to achieve them.
"Oh, since you're also heading to Tiandou City, why don't you come with us? It'll be good to have someone to look after you on the way."
"By the way, Brother Lu, you don't look very old. Are you heading to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy this time?"
Xue Qinghe now truly felt that Lu Yuan was a genius sent to him by heaven.
Thinking of the Spirit Hall's recent frenzied promotion of the Golden Generation, he couldn't help but curl his lip, and a hint of disdain appeared in his eyes.
What kind of Soul Masters dare to call themselves the Golden Generation?
If I weren't on a mission, I would have beaten them so badly they wouldn't even recognize that woman.
"I am on my way to Tiandou City. Since Brother Xue has invited me, I will gladly accept."
"This trip to Heaven Dou City is just to see its prosperity, and of course, I also want to see the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
A smile appeared on Lu Yuan's face as he followed Xue Qinghe toward the convoy, speaking as they walked.
"Oh, what a coincidence! My father recently entrusted me with the responsibility of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy!"
"I never expected that I would encounter a genius like you, Brother Lu, so soon after taking over. I am truly lucky!"
When Xue Qinghe heard that Lu Yuan was going to Tiandou City not only to broaden his horizons but also to Tiandou Academy, his eyes lit up and a look of joy appeared on his face.
His desire to win Lu Yuan over had intensified. He was convinced that if Lu Yuan went to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he could definitely bring Lu Yuan under his command.
If such a genius could be controlled, he would surely become a great asset to me in the future!

It has been revised. Thank you all for reminding me. Originally, I was aiming to go to Thunder to obtain the Thunder God's Divine Trial and then comprehend the Thunder God's power to evolve into Thunder God Lei Yi. However, I forgot the toxic point.

Chapter 15 Thunder Devouring Bull, Second Soul Ring
"I never expected that Brother Xue would be in charge of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy at this time."
"Then I'll have to ask for your guidance from Brother Xue from now on."
Lu Yuan truly did not expect that the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy would now be under the control of Xue Qinghe.
After all, the original work does not record the specific person in charge of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
"Hahaha, easy to talk about."
"I'll write a letter of introduction in a moment and send you, Brother Lu, to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"To be able to recruit such a peerless genius as you into the academy, even my father would be overjoyed if he knew."
Xue Qinghe smiled slightly. For a genius like Lu Yuan, even if the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy has a rule of only recruiting nobles, there would be an exception, especially now that he has added his own recommendation.
Qian Renxue's goal was to win over Lu Yuan, but he was quite tactful. During their first meeting, he didn't directly try to win him over; instead, he showed Lu Yuan a gentle and caring expression.
After arriving in Tiandou City, he even took the initiative to invite Lu Yuan to live in the Crown Prince's residence.
Even after being rejected by Lu Yuan, she was not angry at all, and still kindly wrote a letter of recommendation for Lu Yuan.
As the carriage gradually disappeared into the distance, a hint of admiration appeared in Lu Yuan's eyes.
"If we didn't know that Xue Qinghe was actually Qian Renxue in disguise, we would probably have been completely fooled by her performance. What excellent acting skills she has!"
Lu Yuan thought to himself with some emotion, and he gained a deeper impression of Qian Renxue's acting skills.
No wonder he was able to garner support from so many forces and navigate the power struggles within the royal family to secure his position as crown prince; he is truly remarkable.
Unfortunately, it was performed too perfectly, which resulted in a feeling that it was too unrealistic and like a castle in the air.
Looking at the letter of recommendation in his hand, Lu Yuan thought for a moment and then put it into the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moon. Since it had already caught Qian Renxue's eye, there was nothing to hide. After all, what Qian Renxue wanted was to win him over, not to harm his life.
After glancing at the time, Lu Yuan decided to find a place to stay first.
First, meditate to restore your soul power, and then plan for the immortal herb and the second soul ring.
“Your Highness, that young man named Lu Yuan is quite talented. If you want to recruit him, why not just say so? With your status, he will surely serve you.”
Serpent Spear Douluo appeared silently in the carriage. He had been secretly protecting Xue Qinghe, and only after seeing Lu Yuan leave did he reveal himself and ask in confusion.
“The world’s talents are like wild horses. It’s useless to rely solely on status to completely subdue them. What I need is their complete loyalty from the inside out.”
"Uncle Serpent Spear, send someone to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy to put in a good word with those three education committee members and ask them to take good care of Lu Yuan. After all, I just promised to look after him."
Xue Qinghe disdained using his status to make Lu Yuan completely submit; he was confident that he could rely on his personal charm to make Lu Yuan completely loyal to him.
"Yes, Your Highness. Should I arrange for someone to follow Lu Yuan?"
"Lu Yuan's talent is indeed remarkable. If he were to join another force, he would truly suffer a loss."
Serpent Spear Douluo spoke solemnly. Lu Yuan looked to be only seven or eight years old. Reaching level twenty at such an age meant that, in the entire Douluo Continent, only His Highness could surpass him in talent.
"No need for that. Once I set my sights on someone, there's no way they can escape my grasp."
"Go back and have someone investigate Lu Yuan's background, then hand it over to me."
A hint of confidence flashed across Xue Qinghe's handsome face; all the great talents in the world would eventually fall into his trap.
