The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

"Is Young Master Lu leaving?"

Li Qingluo stared blankly at Lu Yao, who was bidding her farewell.

"I have disturbed your estate for many days, so it is naturally inconvenient for me to stay any longer."

Lu Yao was more polite to Li Qingluo, after all, he was after her daughter.

"I suppose you have important matters to attend to. In that case, I won't keep you any longer."

Li Qingluo nodded.

Suddenly, Li Qingluo glanced at Wang Yuyan beside her, and a thought struck her.

"Young Master Lu, I have a favor to ask of you. Please grant my request."

Li Qingluo thought for a moment and then spoke to Lu Yao.

"Oh? Madam Wang, please speak freely."

Lu Yao was slightly taken aback, wondering what Li Qingluo was up to.

“Yu Yan grew up by my side since she was little. Although she knows some martial arts theory, she doesn’t have much experience in the martial arts world.”

“Young Master Lu is highly skilled in martial arts. I would like to have him take Yu Yan with him when he travels around the world, so that she can broaden her horizons.”

Li Qingluo smiled slightly, but she wanted Lu Yao to bring Wang Yuyan along.

Wang Yuyan was taken aback by Li Qingluo's words, but she was also very curious about the martial arts world, so she did not refuse.

"Since Madam trusts me, I will naturally protect Yuyan to the best of my ability."

Lu Yao nodded, knowing that Li Qingluo was creating opportunities for the two of them to spend time together.

……

At the foot of Mantuo Manor, Lu Yao and three women, including Wang Yuyan, boarded a small boat and slowly sailed away.

"I'll have to trouble you with this journey, Brother Lu."

Wang Yuyan, wearing a light pink dress, excitedly spoke to Lu Yao.

Wang Yuyan rarely leaves Mantuo Manor, and when she does, it's usually to play at Yanziwu in Canhe Manor, so she's really looking forward to this trip.

"Haha, Yu Yan, there's no need to be so polite."

Lu Yao chuckled and gestured to Wang Yuyan not to be so reserved.

Canhe Village was not far from Mantuo Manor. An hour later, Lu Yao and the others arrived at their destination.

"Brother Lu, you've finally arrived. Please come in."

Murong Fu and four retainers were already waiting for Lu Yao there.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Brother Murong."

Lu Yao leaped off the small boat and stood before Murong Fu, saying...

Wang Yuyan and the other two women also got off the small boat and walked over.

"cousin."

Wang Yuyan called out to Murong Fu, but her voice was no longer filled with emotion as it had been before.

"Yes, my cousin is well."

Murong Fu replied indifferently and then fell silent.

Murong Fu then led Lu Yao and the others into Canhe Manor.

Inside a guest room, Lu Yao and Murong Fu were talking.

"I'm currently in contact with the Beggars' Sect. I wonder when Brother Lu's one million taels of silver will arrive?"

Murong Fu glanced at Lu Yao and said calmly.

"Hehehe, Brother Murong, don't worry. I have already informed the sect, and it should be soon."

Lu Yao chuckled lightly, not expecting Murong Fu to be in such a hurry.

"No, no, my young master treats us with sincerity, but we haven't seen your sincerity yet."

Bao Butong shook his head, looking at Lu Yao with distrust in his eyes.

"Ha! Are all of Brother Murong's men this unruly?"

Lu Yao narrowed his eyes, raised a finger, and a burst of energy flashed, instantly sending Bao Butong flying.

The other three people beside Murong Fu immediately drew their weapons and looked at Lu Yao warily.

"Insolence! Put your weapons away!"

Murong Fu's face darkened, and he shouted loudly.

"Young master, I'm going to check on Brother Bao."

The fourth person in charge of the storm spoke up. After Murong Fu nodded, he went to check on Bao Butong's condition.

"My men were rude. Please forgive them, Brother Lu."

Murong Fu's expression shifted, and he bowed slightly to Lu Yao in a low voice.

Murong Fu knew in his heart that he was no match for Lu Yao, and since the two were currently cooperating, it was not advisable to become enemies.

"Brother Murong, your methods of managing your subordinates need improvement. If you can't even manage this, how will you govern the Great Yan Dynasty in the future?"

Lu Yao smiled slightly, his expression somewhat enigmatic.

"Brother Lu is right."

Murong Fu's cheek twitched slightly, and he said stiffly.

After dismissing Murong Fu, Lu Yao returned to his room and disappeared in an instant.

Mythological world.

Lu Yao's figure appeared instantly inside the Wu Kingdom's imperial palace.

Lu Yao quickly found Xiang Yu, who was reviewing memorials.

"Who goes there! There's an assassin!"

When a young eunuch saw Lu Yao and realized that he was not from the palace, he immediately started shouting at the top of his lungs.

Lu Yao frowned slightly, and with a wave of his hand, the little eunuch was knocked unconscious.

Hearing the commotion, Xiang Yu, who was reviewing memorials, immediately took down his hanging sword and came out.

"How dare they attempt to assassinate me? They're asking for trouble."

Xiang Yu remained calm, clearly not taking the assassin seriously.

After all, Xiang Yu himself possessed exceptionally high martial prowess, and most people simply couldn't defeat him.

"Has Xiang Yu forgotten me so quickly?"

Lu Yao crossed his arms and chuckled softly.

"Hmm? Your Majesty, you're back!"

When Xiang Yu saw Lu Yao, he was startled and quickly went to Lu Yao's side.

"I'm just here to borrow a few people, I'll be leaving soon."

Lu Yao glanced at Xiang Yu. Over the past ten years, Xiang Yu, who had become emperor, had gained some weight.

After a while.

Xiang Yu summoned Zhang Liang and Han Xin to the palace.

Zhang Liang and Han Xin were both very excited to see Lu Yao, after all, Lu Yao was an immortal who had ascended to the celestial realm, and they never expected that he would actually return.

Lu Yao quickly put the two of them into the Origin Space and left the mythical world.

The world of The Condor Heroes.

Lu Yao met Yang Guo in the Valley of Heartbreak.

"Master! It's been more than ten years since I last saw you. I'm so glad to finally see you again."

Upon seeing Lu Yao, Yang Guo was so excited that he immediately knelt on the ground.

Lu Yao soon learned about what had happened after he left.

With the help of the Innate Skill given to him by Lu Yao, Yang Guo successfully broke through to the Innate Realm, and the Martial God Palace still stood tall in the entire martial arts world.

Lu Yao then called Ling Xiaofeng over.

Ling Xiaofeng's aptitude is not as good as Yang Guo's. He is currently stuck at the peak of the Acquired Realm and has been unable to break through to the Innate Realm.

"Your martial arts skills are a bit lacking; this won't do."

Lu Yao shook his head and directly poured twenty years' worth of Northern Darkness True Qi into Ling Xiaofeng's body.

The powerful Northern Darkness True Qi instantly ignited Ling Xiaofeng's dantian, and he quickly broke through the shackles and stepped into the Innate Realm.

This is also due to Ling Xiaofeng's limited aptitude. Without Lu Yao's help, he probably would never be able to break through again in his lifetime.

After being forcibly boosted and infused by Lu Yao, Ling Xiaofeng's escape route was cut off, and he would be stuck at the early stage of the Innate Realm for the rest of his life.

"Thank you, Palace Master!"

However, Ling Xiaofeng harbored no resentment. The Innate Realm was a realm he never dared to dream of. Now that Lu Yao had helped him reach the Innate Realm, he was more than grateful and had no reason to resent it.

"That will do."

Lu Yao nodded; two innate masters were enough.

In the original space.

Lu Yao gave the four men some instructions, asking them to assist Murong Fu in restoring the Yan state, and also instructed Zhang Liang and Han Xin to change their names and disguise themselves.

Zhang Liang and Han Xin are both only in their forties, and they are full of enthusiasm when they hear the task Lu Yao has given them.

Yang Guo and Ling Xiaofeng's task was much simpler: to protect Zhang Liang and Han Xin.
