Ancient Ancestral Ruins - Chapter 65 The Old Tortoise Who Hidden Tightest Circumstances

“Yes, time waits for no one.”

Inside the courtyard, Lu Jiu echoed the same sentiment.

Despite the passage of time, his appearance remains unchanged, and everything is as it was before.

The old friend, however, had white hair at his temples and a face full of wrinkles.

If even the Qin family’s young master is like this, it’s no wonder that girl Ruyu doesn’t come to see him.

The Qin family arrived.

This undoubtedly adds another layer of mystery to Lu Jiu’s identity.

Some forces that had been eager to make a move chose to remain inactive and keep quiet, not daring to act rashly.

Before we knew it, some time had passed.

An old Taoist priest arrived at the gate of the Lu family in Wangyue City.

The old Taoist priest was unremarkable in appearance, his robe was covered in dust, and when he smiled, he revealed a mouthful of large yellow teeth.

“Peerless Divine Array”.

The old Taoist priest glanced at the Lu family’s ancestral home. The seemingly peaceful space actually contained countless array runes and patterns.

The so-called peerless divine array represents the highest level of divine arrays, with unimaginable power, capable of slaying true gods!

With the old Taoist’s level of cultivation, he could easily ignore this divine formation and even forcefully break it open.

But he did not do that.

His rash and impulsive behavior is not in line with his way of dealing with people.

And so it was.

The old Taoist priest dusted off his robe, walked to the gate of the Lu family’s ancestral home, and knocked on the door.

When a member of the Lu family opened the door, the old Taoist priest handed over a visiting card with a beaming smile.

“The old Daoist Cang Qingzi has come to pay a special visit to Fellow Daoist Lu Jiu!”

…

For Lu Jiu, who possesses a seventh sense.

He had foreseen Cang Qingzi’s arrival.

In Lu Jiu’s small courtyard.

He lay on the armchair as always, with Li Hanlu and Xu Huanhuan on his left and right behind him, respectively, while Bai Su served him like a maid, making tea for Lu Jiu.

As the head of the family, Lu Qingyun personally brought Cang Qingzi here, then bowed to Lu Jiu and turned to leave the courtyard.

“I see.”

The moment Lu Jiu saw Cang Qingzi, his eyes narrowed slightly. “In ancient times, when the human race was invaded by demons, your Cang Qing Dao Sect turned a blind eye, just because your Cang Qing Ancestor was a demon?”

“Fellow Daoist has keen insight; I never expected you to see through my true form at a glance.”

Cang Qingzi smiled. In this Cang Qing Realm, Lu Jiu was the first person to see through his true form.

Just as Lu Jiu said.

He, Cang Qingzi, was not a human cultivator, but a demon.

Li Hanlu and Xu Huanhuan, standing behind Lu Jiu, showed surprise and shock in their beautiful eyes.

To them, Cang Qingzi was undoubtedly a legendary figure, a reclusive master, and unfathomable.

Unexpectedly, this person is actually a demon!

Bai Su, however, felt nothing at all and did not even glance at Cang Qingzi. It seemed that, apart from her master Lu Jiu, no other living beings were important or of any concern to her.

“It’s not that I can tell you’re a demon, but I also know that your true form is an old tortoise, which is consistent with your personality.”

Lu Jiu said indifferently.

Even when facing the founder of the Azure Dao Sect, Lu Jiu showed no intention of getting up to greet him, behaving casually and naturally.

Such behavior is considered extremely rude by anyone.

However, Cang Qingzi didn’t care at all.

Even though Lu Jiu’s words carried a hint of sarcasm, he ignored them as if he hadn’t noticed.

“Fellow Daoist’s realm is unfathomable; this old Daoist admires it immensely!”

Not only did Cang Qingzi not show any dissatisfaction, but he also fawned over him and acted as a straight man, adopting a very humble posture.

Such a scene.

Li Hanlu’s expression turned slightly strange, because this scene seemed all too familiar.

His cousin, the only true disciple of the Azure Dao Sect, who traveled the world, looked just like this back when he was in the Ancient Demon Secret Realm.

Just as Master Lu said, this Azure Daoist sect is truly of the same lineage!

“A guest is a guest, yet I won’t even offer you a seat. Aren’t you angry?” Lu Jiu picked up a teacup from the table beside him, took a sip, and looked at the old Taoist opposite him with a half-smile.

“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. This is a small matter. I don’t care about it. Fellow Daoist, you don’t need to care either.”

Lu Jiu smiled upon hearing this, “I’m afraid I’m not worthy of being addressed as ‘fellow Daoist’ by you. If I’m not mistaken, you old tortoise have lived from ancient times to the present day, so you must be at least a million years old.”

“As for me, Lu, I have only lived for a mere ten thousand years. I should address you as a senior.”

In this Azure Realm, no one can see through Azure Child’s true nature, because their understanding and perspective are insufficient.

However, Lu Jiu had revealed almost everything about Cang Qingzi on their first meeting.

The words “one million years old” struck Li Hanlu and Xu Huanhuan like a thunderclap, their pretty faces filled with disbelief and horror.

After all, this number is simply too frightening!

How long has the recorded history of the human race been in the Azure Realm? At most, it’s only a hundred thousand years, right?

Although Cang Qingzi still wore a smile on his old face, his face twitched slightly as he said awkwardly, “Although I have been around longer, in the path of cultivation, those who have reached the highest level come first. In this respect, you have already surpassed me. How dare I call myself a senior?”

“That makes sense!”

Lu Jiu nodded, seemingly agreeing with the other party’s point of view, but his tone suddenly turned cold and sharp, “You yourself said that the accomplished come first, so who gave you the audacity to call me ‘fellow Daoist’?”

These words were spoken.

The smile on Cang Qingzi’s old face froze instantly.

Although he couldn’t help but curse inwardly, after all, he had already lowered himself so much, yet this bastard surnamed Lu was still so aggressive.

He knew that Lu Jiuming was clearly trying to give him a hard time.

But his long-standing survival skills forced Cang Qingzi to grit his teeth and endure it.

“Senior is right to reprimand me; it was I who was ignorant.”

The ability to bend and stretch, and to remain unmoved by honor or disgrace, is perfectly embodied in Cang Qingzi.

Seeing this, Lu Jiu couldn’t help but chuckle and pointed at the other person, “You old turtle, I was just joking with you, why are you taking it so seriously?”

A thousand horses galloped through Cang Qingzi’s mind. He cursed inwardly, “Who the hell knows if you’re really joking?”

This was the first time the two had met.

Both Lu Jiu and Cang Qingzi were curious about each other and were testing each other.

What Cang Qingzi probed Lu Jiu about is known only to himself; no one else can know.

But Lu Jiu had already figured out that this old tortoise, Cang Qingzi, was extremely cunning.

“After how I’ve treated you, haven’t you ever thought of testing my strength? After all, even that brat from the Seven Killings Holy Sect could tell that there was a problem with my cultivation, and that my current cultivation level is only at the Qi Refining Realm.”

As he spoke, Lu Jiu released his aura, which was indeed the fluctuation of the Qi Refining Realm.

Cang Qingzi could no longer laugh. His face was full of embarrassment and his tone was bitter. “Senior, please stop testing me. Others may not know your level, but I do know a thing or two.”

“Oh? What do you know? Tell me.” Lu Jiu smiled faintly.

“The so-called ancient world in this realm is nothing more than a fragment of heaven and earth that evolved into a new realm after the primordial chaos was broken. Because the primordial chaos was a catastrophe, countless living beings died, and cultivators, in particular, were few and far between.”

“Therefore, the human race in this world at the beginning of the cultivation civilization rose slowly. What they obtained from the ruins of some ancient immortal sects were not profound or top-notch inheritances. They knew very little about the eighteen difficulties of becoming an immortal.”

“If I’m not mistaken, senior’s cultivation has already reached the Golden Immortal realm, which was probably more than three thousand years ago.”

“If we calculate it this way, it only took you a little over six thousand years to go from the peak of True God to Golden Immortal.”

“Such an astonishing cultivation speed would make him one of the few unparalleled geniuses even in the ancient primordial era!”

That brings us to this point.

Cang Qingzi looked at Lu Jiu with a deep sense of respect, and this reverence seemed genuine.
