Chapter 80 Post-Match Review
In the evening, Lu Ren recalled the day's duel and reflected on some of the details he had handled.
Although he won in the end, in terms of pure strength, he was still a step behind Chen.
If he doesn't unleash his full power, the opponent can dominate him.
Once he activates his ultimate skill, even if the opponent tries to slow him down, he won't be able to catch up.
But in fact, he did win.
The attribute panel can clearly show the difference in strength between the two sides, but those differences are not insurmountable gaps. On the battlefield, things change in an instant. A single thought or decision during a duel can have a greater impact on the outcome of the battle than years of training in the cold winters and hot summers.
Making the wrong decision could cost you your life. Even when facing a weaker enemy, you cannot afford to underestimate them in the slightest.
Lu Ren understood that he was able to win today because his opponent underestimated him.
Could he one day underestimate others and be defeated or even killed by a weaker enemy? Lu Ren pondered this in his mind, reminding himself that he must never let his guard down.
Inside the house, the women were chattering incessantly.
Jiang Yueying is leaving for Yanzhou tomorrow and won't be going back today. She's been invited by Lu Youhe to stay at their place for the night.
They're having a pillow fight right now, and the little girls in their nightgowns, including Xiao Jue'er, are making a lot of noise in the room.
These girls are clearly not young anymore, why are they having a pillow fight? Don't they think it's childish? But it's late at night, and these young ladies don't care about this or that, they just play!
The girls are very close; they even said they'd sleep together tonight.
Thump, thump, thump, bang, bang, the little girl ran around on the ground, and the pillow flew around in the air.
Lu Ren was so annoyed that he went outside to play on his phone.
Open the app, and in just over a week, he has gained several thousand followers.
It all started with a post he made a week ago, which has now garnered thousands of comments, tens of thousands of likes, and thousands of shares.
Actually, although Lu Youhe is very cute, he is not so cute that he can become popular just by posting something. The key is that Jiang Yueying followed him, and in Jiang Yueying's following list, there is a minor celebrity named "Singer Jiang He".
The minor celebrity followed Jiang Yueying's trail to him, liked his post, and even reposted it.
Jiang Yueying debuted a few years ago through a singing competition, and later released several singles that topped the charts on several music platforms. She has participated in many programs since then and has been doing quite well in the last two years.
So when she casually reposted it, Lu Ren gained a lot of traffic.
Crimson spear, immortal shield, slaying all immortal kings and destroying the nine heavens!
At the pinnacle of immortality, I reign supreme over the world; with my Youhe River, there is heaven!
In the early stages of online literature development, the combination of the girl's pretty face and fierce expression still attracted a lot of attention.
He scrolled through the comments section and grinned broadly.
Kaiyunluo: Judging by the age, they're probably still in elementary school? I wonder if they'll delete the post when they grow up? /covering mouth and smearing cream on bread: Which cartoon line is this?
Jiudong: Nowadays, even the dark history of kids is in high definition /laughs. The internet environment is very friendly, but it's only been a few years since everyone has been online. Netizens don't know how to cross-dress or create abstract content.
If you use abstract language, people won't understand your humor; they'll genuinely think you have some kind of mental problem.
Of course, a large number of young people are also starting to emerge on the internet, but they don't have much say yet. However, Lu Ren has a vague feeling that these people will probably be the abstract army ten years from now.
Ace Pilot: Little friend, your primary task now is to quit Tomato Chinese Website. Canghai Mingyue: [Image] This Venerable One Passes By indifferently. Cannon: This Venerable One sees that little friend has good aptitude. Would you be willing to become this Venerable One's disciple?
I can't be trusted: Ever since Lu Ren bought a cell phone, he's been secretly taking lots of photos of Lu Youhe, making up for the regret of not having taken any photos of Lu Youhe during their elementary school years.
It's a loss for the world if only I get to see such an adorable little sister; I definitely have to share it with my online friends.
Bored, Lu Ren searched his phone again and posted another photo he had secretly taken of Lu Youhe while he was practicing swordsmanship, along with the caption:
He can fight three thousand emperors with one hand, and sweep away all enemies with both palms. Who can claim to be invincible? Who dares to say they are undefeated? They have not been seen since the fall of the emperors!
Suddenly, a woman's voice rang out in the air: "Where did you learn all these fancy words?"
Lu Ren quickly looked up, somewhat delighted, and said, "Master, you're here! I won today, and what's next—"
"Alright, alright, I already know."
The white-haired girl floated in the air. Today, she was not wearing her simple training clothes, nor was she casually ponytailed.
She had a head of snow-white hair piled up at the back of her head, and wore a black and red imperial robe. The wide sleeves and hem of the robe were decorated with simple cloud and thunder patterns outlined in gold thread, and a smooth flow seemed to pass through them as she moved.
She even wore shoes today; a pair of embroidered shoes were faintly visible under her horse-face skirt.
"Why are you looking at your teacher like that?"
"This is the first time I've seen my master wearing clothes other than his training clothes."
"I see, is it nice?"
She twirled in the air, her skirt fluttering as she fell back down.
"Uh, oh? It's...it looks good."
"When my master was alive, he loved this outfit the most. Today is the anniversary of his death, so I wore it to pay my respects. That's why I didn't come to watch your test. I hope you won't blame me?"
"—Master actually got married?"
"How old do you think your master is this year?"
Only when she mentioned it did Lu Ren realize that this person was someone of his grandmother's generation.
Indeed, the supporting character's hairstyle today is also a woman's bun, and her gorgeous clothes are different from Shen Yaoxing's girlish clothes; they are the attire of a noblewoman.
However, her appearance is indeed too alluring. When she is with her supporting character master, the master occasionally shows a girlish charm.
The white-haired girl suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled, floated around him once, and then sat in the void with her legs crossed: "My dear disciple, what's with that expression? Could it be that you're jealous of your dead husband? This old woman is already so old, it's truly a sin."
"————" Not only his appearance, but also his mentality is very young.
He knew, of course, that his master was a man in his thirties or even a hundred years old and probably had a large family, but when he learned that his master was married, Lu Ren did feel a little bit of resentment, which was really inexplicable.
Lu Ren said helplessly, "My master is old enough to be my grandmother, so please don't make jokes like that."
"Your grandson could be your great-grandson, not just your grandmother.
Lu Ren was startled and couldn't help but wonder, "Just how old is Master?"
"Didn't you guess that your master is at the Burning Sun Realm? Do you know how long someone at the Burning Sun Realm can live?"
"I saw online that it's possible to live to be over 150 years old?"
"How much effective information about the Burning Sun Realm is available online? Do you know the oldest living Burning Sun Realm expert?"
'
Lu Ren shook his head, genuinely unaware.
"Is this your destination, the Supreme Elder Gu Tong'er of the Gu Clan in Yanzhou? He should be 340 years old this year, right?"
Lu Ren was shocked upon hearing this: "A person at the Burning Sun Realm can live for over three hundred years?"
The white-haired girl was clearly floating in the air, but it felt like there was a soft sofa beneath her. She lay lazily in the void and said languidly, "No, a typical Burning Sun Realm cultivator can live for two Jiazi (60 years). Those with high Life Strength attributes can live even longer, while sorcerers with high Yin-Yang attributes can live the longest, reaching a maximum of around 180 years. However, the reason why Gu Tong'er was able to live for over 300 years is because he possessed a treasure that could prolong life."
"I see--"
"I'll give you a task too."
"What?"
The white-haired girl looked at him and said with a smile, "Go and fetch that precious material."
"————" Should this person listen to what she's saying?
"Don't worry, that's just a precious material, not an elixir of immortality. It's not like it can really make him live forever. Even if this Gu Tong'er has a precious material, his time is coming to an end. Once he dies, the Gu family will no longer have anyone at the Burning Sun Realm, so they won't be able to use this precious material. It all depends on who he plans to hand it over to."
"Since it's something so important, shouldn't Master have gone to snatch it himself?"
