Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world

"Yaoyao..."

Just as Lu Lingxi Yao stepped out of the White Jade Pagoda and turned to walk towards the Phoenix Forest Garden, she heard Lu Linggui Hong's voice behind her.

Lu Lingguihong strode forward, his gaze sweeping over Lu Lingxiyao, a hint of surprise in his eyes, "Judging from your appearance, you've already cleared the White Jade Tower?"

Lu Lingxi smiled slightly and nodded, "Brother has returned so early. It seems you've had a very fruitful trip. You must have already broken through to a higher level?"

Lu Linggui Hong laughed heartily, "Well, compared to my sister, who is the number one genius, I, as her older brother, am somewhat ashamed!"

Lu Lingxi shook her head gently, her tone full of sincerity: "Brother, please don't underestimate yourself. You won't stop moving forward just because you're slightly inferior to me, will you?"

A resolute glint flashed in Lu Lingguihong's eyes. "Of course not. The children of the Lu Ling family are meant to constantly surpass themselves and bring glory to the family. The road ahead is long. Even if we can't surpass our sister, we'll still follow closely behind her."

Then, Lu Lingxi frowned slightly, and a hint of seriousness flickered in her originally bright eyes. She sighed softly, as if she was weighing some important decision in her heart.

Seeing this, Lu Lingguihong was filled with doubt and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Sister... what's wrong? Is something on your mind?"

Lu Lingxi looked at Lu Lingguihong, her voice carrying a hint of barely perceptible worry, "Brother, I've thought about it for a long time. I still think it's better not to let Grandpa go with us to the Upper Realm this time. We know nothing about the situation there, and there might be dangers. If we can go up and investigate first, or find the lost clansmen, and then come back to pick up Grandpa, it might be safer."

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingguihong pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "What you said makes sense. We can't let Grandpa take any risks. However, we still need to communicate with Grandpa properly about this matter so that he won't worry about us."

Lu Lingxi nodded gently, "Yes, let's go talk to Grandpa together. I hope he can understand our decision."

Having decided to set off, Lu Lingxi and Lu Lingguihong, the siblings, had to say goodbye to their masters. So they separated and would return to Guiyun City together after saying goodbye to their respective masters.

Inside the villa of Zisang Gucheng, moonlight filtered through sparse clouds, dappling the exquisite courtyard and adding a touch of melancholy to the farewell. Lu Lingxi and Yao sat quietly to one side of Zisang Gucheng, their shadows stretched long in the dim lamplight.

The usually dignified yet warm-hearted Zisang Gucheng looked solemn at this moment. He spoke slowly, his voice tinged with reluctance.

"Disciple, have you come to say goodbye to your master?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi Yao's eyes reddened slightly. She tried her best to control her emotions, not wanting Zisang Gucheng to see her vulnerable side. Her voice trembled slightly.

“Master, I have a family mission to fulfill, so I have to leave. It is my responsibility.”

Zi Sang Gu Cheng sighed softly, his gaze falling tenderly on Lu Ling Xi Yao's face. He reached out and gently patted Lu Ling Xi Yao's shoulder.

“My disciple, I know your difficulties, but this journey is long and arduous, so you must be very careful.”

Lu Lingxi nodded, tears welling up in her eyes, but she didn't let them fall. She took a deep breath, trying to make her voice sound stronger.

"Master, rest assured, I will carry your teachings with me and forge ahead bravely. Once I have properly settled the family affairs, no matter how far or how long it takes, I will definitely come back to visit you!"

Upon hearing this, Zisang Gucheng smiled with relief. "Good child, remember, no matter where you are, this will always be your home, and your master will always be here. If you encounter difficulties, remember to look back. Your master will always be here, waiting for you to come back!"

The two exchanged a smile. At that moment, all words seemed superfluous; the deep affection between master and disciple needed no further expression.

A night breeze swept by, carrying a hint of coolness, yet it seemed to silently witness this kinship that transcended blood ties, deeply imprinted in each other's hearts at this moment.

The next morning, as the first rays of dawn appeared on the horizon, Lu Lingguihong closed his eyes and concentrated, his body surrounded by faint fluctuations of spiritual energy. As he chanted softly, ripples spread through the air, and then his contracted spirit beast—the Dragon Eagle—appeared before him.

This dragon-eagle, with its eagle head and dragon body, possesses a majestic posture. Its outstretched wings stretch to the horizon, and its scales gleam in the sunlight, exuding an inviolable nobility. Its eyes, like burning lava, shimmer with the wisdom to see through all things in the world. Its talons are exceptionally sharp, flashing with a cold light. Even mountains of solid rock would be reduced to dust under its claws, fully displaying its domineering presence.

Upon witnessing this scene, Lu Lingxi Yao's eyes flashed with amazement and envy. She sincerely praised it, her tone full of admiration.

"Brother is truly amazing, managing to contract such a majestic and powerful spirit beast!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingguihong's lips curved into a gentle smile. He leaped lightly and landed steadily on the broad back of the dragon eagle. Then, he extended a hand to Lu Lingxiyao, his voice filled with endless doting affection.

"Come, come with me!"

Lu Lingxi smiled slightly, shook her head, and looked at him with a hint of pride. "No need, brother, I also have a flying spirit beast."

As soon as she finished speaking, she called out softly, and a huge, menacing ancient beast—Youming—slowly stepped out from the void.

The appearance of the Netherworld seemed to freeze the air itself, and an ancient and powerful pressure spread out, causing the surrounding creatures to tremble involuntarily.

The once arrogant dragon eagle involuntarily lowered its head before Youming, its massive body trembling slightly as it prostrated itself on the ground, clearly deeply intimidated by the ancient aura emanating from Youming.

Seeing this, Lu Lingxi felt slightly apologetic and quickly signaled Youming to suppress the chilling pressure. Sensing its master's wish, Youming slowly adjusted its breathing, and the oppressive feeling gradually dissipated, allowing the dragon eagle to finally catch its breath.

Then, the dragon eagle carried Lu Ling Guihong, and the Netherworld carried Lu Ling Xiyao. The two, one in front and one behind, were like two shooting stars streaking across the sky, speeding towards Guiyun City at an astonishing speed.

The scenery along the way unfolds slowly like a scroll painting, from the vast mountains and rivers to the babbling streams, from the cloud-shrouded peaks to the flower-filled plains, each place seems to be telling how vast and wonderful the world outside Guiyun City is.

Dragon Eagle and Netherworld darted through the forest, sometimes flying low over the lush trees, startling flocks of birds; sometimes soaring high in the clouds, keeping company with the sun, moon and stars.

Lu Lingguihong sat on the back of the dragon eagle, his gaze deep as he looked at the gradually familiar scenery. Complex emotions surged in his heart. He murmured to himself, his voice soft but full of deep affection.

"I haven't been home for many years. I wonder if everything is alright at home? Grandpa, I'm back."

Lu Lingxi Yao held Youming's mane tightly, occasionally looking up at the sky and then down at her feet.

"Brother, look at that cloud, doesn't it look like the kites we used to fly in the yard when we were little?"

Lu Lingxi's words carried a touch of childlike innocence, which made Lu Lingguihong smile indulgently. As the outline of Guiyun City became clearer on the horizon, the two began to talk more.

“I remember when I was a child I always dreamed of flying out of Guiyun City and seeing the outside world. Now I have actually done it, but I miss that little home even more.”

"Yes, the outside world is vast, but it never tastes like home. Do you still remember the most famous osmanthus cake in Guiyun City? I can almost smell its fragrance."

For some reason, Lu Lingxi suddenly felt a sense of loss, as if an invisible thread was pulling at the softest corner of her heart, making her involuntarily think of her always smiling grandfather. After so many years away, she wondered how he was doing now, and whether he was in good health!

Lu Lingguihong keenly noticed the change in his sister's emotions. "Are you thinking about Grandpa? Don't worry too much. Maybe he's under the old locust tree at home, brewing his favorite tea, quietly waiting for our return."

It's a pity there's no communication conch. If I had given Grandpa one, he might have known how well or poorly he was doing. This time when I go back, I must prepare a few, no matter what. Although these communication conches are very precious, they are nothing to Lu Lingxi Yao now.

This time, it was much faster than when they went to the Holy Spirit Academy. On the evening of the third day, they arrived at Guiyun City. As the last rays of the setting sun shone on the city walls of Guiyun City, Longying and Youming slowly descended and landed on the open ground outside the city. Accompanied by a deep and solemn mechanical sound, the city gate slowly opened, as if welcoming the two children returning home. Lu Lingguihong and Lu Lingxiyao smiled at each other and stepped into the city gate.
