Peerless Taoist

0Lu Yu was slightly stunned, but looking at Shangguan Wan'er's expression, it was obvious that she was intentionally joking.    

    

"The Grand Secretary of Great Qin, I am not ready to change for now. Li Si is doing well now. He has unified the language of the entire Heaven Realm and measured the world. I will not change at this time."    

    

Lu Yu was wise enough to tell Shangguan Wan'er that she was joking.    

    

"I have no intention of being an official. I just want to travel around the world and see places that I have never been before..."    

    

When Shangguan Wan'er said this, her expression suddenly became a little lonely.    

    

Looking out from the pavilion in the palace, one could see the entire scene of Shangjing. After Great Qin had taken over the Chu Realm, this place had been turned into a huge city.    

    

All the cultivators from all over the world were sent into this huge city. The population of eight hundred million was an astronomical figure for some mortal countries, but in the huge Chu Realm, it was nothing.    

    

On the ruins, a new city had been built. The Chu Dynasty had become history, and it was now Great Qin's era.    

    

However, in the midst of all the lights, there was not a single one that belonged to her, Shangguan Wan'er.    

    

Even the name was a lie.    

    

Lu Yu was silent. He did not take the initiative to invite Shangguan Wan'er to Xianyang. The current Shangguan Wan'er did not have Ji Chenyu's memories.    

    

This could be called her other life. She should not be controlled by others. She had the right to choose her own life.    

    

"Tell me about Ji Chenyu."    

    

Shangguan Wan'er suddenly said.    

    

Lu Yu was well aware that Shangguan Wan'er was also very curious about Ji Chenyu's identity. She had been following up on her investigation.    

    

However, the Heaven Realm was vast, but who would remember that ordinary girl from the Lower Realm?    

    

"At that time, I met her in a place called White Deer Academy in the Lower Realm..." Lu Yu slowly said, and the memories in his mind began to reappear.    

    

Ji Chenyu was a famous girl in the White Deer Academy at that time. Later, Lu Yu entered the White Deer Academy to cultivate. The two of them got to know each other due to fate.    

    

She was a poor girl with a pitiful background. She was originally from a wealthy family, and she should have lived a luxurious life. Unfortunately, an accident happened, causing her family to be exterminated. She also fell into dire straits in the Southern Wasteland, and at the same time, she was constantly being corroded by the nightmares.    

    

Lu Yu could not bear to see such a scene. He helped her, and after that, the two of them parted ways. In the end, they met in the Middle Land, Lingxiao Sect.    

    

In Lu Yu's heart, he always felt pity for this young girl. He silently helped her, but he did not expect that she would leave such an indelible feeling in her heart.    

    

Outsiders would usually only take a fancy to Ji Chenyu's appearance, but only Lu Yu sincerely wanted to help her.    

    

Whether it was killing the demons time and time again or driving away the nightmares in Ji Chenyu's mind, Lu Yu was like a solid backer, protecting her at all times.    

    

Even Lu Yu did not notice that Ji Chenyu's heart had long since developed feelings for him.    

    

The battle arena of the competition was Lu Yu's memory of the past. It was also there that this pitiful girl had lost her residual soul.    

    

Due to her Yin Body, her last wisp of residual soul was taken away by Xu Guizong.    

    

Now, it seemed that this wisp of Yin Body's soul was also an important part of Shen Linglong's sacrifice.    

    

Otherwise, Xu Guixuan would not have come to the Lower Realm and captured the soul of a girl.    

    

Shen Linglong had already started to plot a long time ago.    

    

If it were not for Lu Yu's sudden rise and the many things that had happened in the entire Heaven Realm, the target of Shen Linglong's sacrifice would have been the Great Yu Dynasty.    

    

At this moment, Ji Chenyu's figure kept appearing in Lu Yu's mind.    

    

In the last moment, Ji Chenyu had blocked Lu Yu's fatal attack for him. However, she did not expect that they would part ways forever.    

    

Shangguan Waner pursed her lips and looked at Lu Yu's figure. She suddenly felt that there seemed to be many things on his back.    

    

In fact, they had only met for the first time. Shangguan Waner had always understood Lu Yu from the many memorials of the Chu Dynasty.    

    

However, when she truly came into contact with Lu Yu, she felt a sense of familiarity in her heart.    

    

It was as if she had once known this man before.    

    

Shangguan Wan'er took a deep breath and looked at Lu Yu. "Am I the same as Xu Guizong? Since you can open Xu Guizong's memories, you can also open mine."    

    

After saying this, Shangguan Wan'er had made a big decision.    

    

After all, who would be willing to become another person for no reason?    

    

Lu Yu looked at Shangguan Wan'er and found that her eyes were filled with determination, as if she had already made her decision.    

    

Originally, she was loyal to Emperor Chu, but she did not expect that Shen Linglong would eventually use her. She originally thought that she still had relatives in the world, but she did not expect that her identity was a lie. The so-called relatives were always lying to her.    

    

Shangguan Wan'er's heart was at a loss.    

    

Although the world was big, there was no place for her.    

    

Shangguan Wan'er could have joined the Qinhuang Dynasty like the other Chu ministers, but Lu Yu did not agree.    

    

The reason Shen Linglong let Shangguan Wan'er stay by her side was actually to use her as a puppet to handle government affairs.    

    

He could tell Shangguan Wan'er's plan. She wanted to use the complicated government affairs to get rid of her current troubles.    

    

However, such a busy life would only bring endless emptiness.    

    

"You and Xu Guizong are different. He only has a portion of his memories sealed, but you..."    

    

Lu Yu looked at Shangguan Wan'er and shook his head. "I can't help you recover."    

    

Shangguan Wan'er was like Niuniu, a reincarnated residual soul.    

    

Ji Chenyu, the reincarnation of Ye Xuelan, was now the princess of Great Qin. She lived a carefree and comfortable life.    

0

    

It was almost impossible for Shangguan Wan'er to recover and become Ji Chenyu.    

    

Shangguan Wan'er suddenly said, "Since that's the case, take me back to the Lower Realm to take a look."    

    

Sensing Lu Yu's gaze, Shangguan Wan'er said, "Since there's nowhere else to go, let's go back to our hometown... Although I don't have those memories anymore."    

    

"Alright."    

    

Lu Yu let out a long sigh and left Chu Realm with Shangguan Wan'er.    

    

With Lu Yu's current strength, he did not need to use teleportation arrays to travel between different worlds.    

    

Flying in the air and breaking through the void was just half a day's time before Lu Yu arrived at the Central Capital Star.    

    

Great Qin, Central Capital.    

    

This was once an extremely ordinary star. Amongst the countless stars in the Heaven Realm, it was quite inconspicuous.    

    

However, after Lu Yu established the Great Qin Dynasty, he upgraded this place that used to be called the Lower Realm into the Central Capital and became one of the imperial capitals of Great Qin.    

    

At this moment, the Central Capital Star had gradually become prosperous. More and more forces had taken root here, and the people who used to live here had also received a great improvement.
