Chapter 1068: Chapter 1068: Bai Xiuxiu’s Thoughts

“There’s no doubt he wants to win you over, but since you’re from the Wild Dragon Clan, he can’t be sure if there’s anything wrong with you. He let you absorb the Dragon Power, and this is definitely a way to draw you in. But even for the Dragon Clan, Dragon Power must be the most precious resource. Think about it, who would do such a thing shortly after meeting someone? He dares to do this, one reason being to win you over, to make you trust him more, so that after receiving benefits, you’ll be loyal to him. Another reason must be that he has something to rely on. I don’t think his own strength is sufficient for that, because if in the future you manage to become a Dragon Knight as he predicted, he won’t be able to suppress you. So, the problem likely lies within your own body. After all, you’ve consumed his food, absorbed the energy he provided, and in this process, it wouldn’t be hard for him to meddle.”

Bai Xiuxiu nodded, secretly admiring Lan Xuanyu’s meticulous thinking. His judgment wasn’t based on any direct observations but rather on logical reasoning.

Lan Xuanyu smiled and said, “But you don’t need to worry. Whatever he did to you is very subtle, and it’s within your bloodline power. The issue within your bloodline power isn’t that big of a problem. I should have a way to help you resolve it, so I want to ask about Senior Demon Queen’s perceptions in detail before we proceed. If it doesn’t have a big impact on you, it’s better to hold our forces for now to avoid arousing Huang Daoqi’s suspicions. When it’s time to remove it, I should be able to do a sweep with my bloodline power over yours.”

“Actually, if Huang Daoqi hadn’t meddled with you, I would be even more worried. It would mean he probably has other measures he hasn’t used yet. That would be the real trouble. The fact that he has meddled actually makes me a bit more relieved.”

Bai Xiuxiu said, “I really can’t handle all this scheming and plotting. Luckily I have you. So, what should we do next?”

Lan Xuanyu replied, “From the fact that he acknowledged you as his goddaughter, it shows that you are more important to his family than he initially thought. So he is eager to further strengthen his relationship with you. This means he doesn’t suspect you. For now, just continue as normal, proceed with your cultivation. Wait until you have completely absorbed the Dragon Power you received this time, then go see him, and propose to absorb Dragon Power again. See how he reacts. Moreover, I suspect that before long, he will come to you first. After assessing your condition, he is likely to give you the Dragon Knight Cultivation Method. After all, he has high hopes for you.”

Bai Xiuxiu nodded and said, “I can feel that after absorbing the Dragon Power, the way he looks at me has changed significantly. The shock that the Dragon Power brought him must have been substantial. However, Xuanyu, this Dragon Power seems extremely pure and powerful, part of the Dragon Clan’s power. If you were to absorb this Dragon Power, wouldn’t you also gain significant benefits?”

Lan Xuanyu responded, “That there would be benefits is without question, but I’m unclear on how significant they would be. It would require an attempt to know. So, the Imperial Dragon Power Hall is a very important place for us.”

Bai Xiuxiu’s brow furrowed slightly and she said, “Then do we proceed according to our original plan? For you to appear as my boyfriend and join them, would that work?”

Lan Xuanyu shook his head and said, “That’s no longer feasible. Doing so would make it too obvious and could lead to exposure. Especially since Huang Yuanlang clearly has designs on you. But the ability you’ve displayed this time should deter him to some extent. At least he shouldn’t dare to harass you, and at most, he would try to curry favor with you. But if you suddenly introduce a boyfriend, he will definitely get angry, which could increase interference with us, and more so, another person would make it easier for them to grow suspicious, leading to adverse effects. So, I thought about it on the way back just now, and we can’t do that.”

Suddenly, a smile appeared on Bai Xiuxiu’s face as she scanned Lan Xuanyu’s face with her deep blue eyes, staring at him again and again.

Feeling somewhat uncomfortable under her gaze, Lan Xuanyu asked, “What are you looking at?”

With a sly grin, Bai Xiuxiu said, “I just had a great idea that might just solve the problem you mentioned.”

“What idea?” Lan Xuanyu asked with a puzzled look.

Bai Xiuxiu whispered something softly, and in an instant, Lan Xuanyu’s expression drastically changed, while the expressions on Tang Yuge and Yuanen Huihui’s faces became quite odd.

“No, no,” Lan Xuanyu repeatedly waved his hands, declining Bai Xiuxiu’s suggestion.

Bai Xiuxiu snickered, “What’s wrong with that? I think this plan is great! It perfectly solves the problems you mentioned. Plus, think about it—the use of the Dragon Power Hall must be the biggest secret of Sky Dragon Planet. If we were to find out on our own, who knows how much time it would waste and what risks we’d have to take just for that slim chance. I bet even Huang Yuanlang doesn’t know how to use the Dragon Power Hall, it must be known only to Huang Daoqi. This is the only way for you to use the Dragon Power Hall in the shortest time. Won’t you really consider it?”

“I…” Lan Xuanyu looked at Bai Xiuxiu and couldn’t help but feel that the suggestion was part of her twisted sense of humor.

“I think we can give it a try, Brother Xuanyu, hahaha! It sounds pretty good,” Yuanen Huihui suddenly burst out laughing.

Even Tang Yuge, standing beside him, couldn’t help but smile, “I also think Xiuxiu’s idea isn’t bad, and, frankly, I kind of want to see it happen.”

Lan Xuanyu said, frustrated, “You all must have devils living in your hearts. Go back and rest. Let me think about this some more. Xiuxiu, you cultivate as Huang Daoqi instructed, and when the Senior Demon Queen wakes up, notify me right away. We’ll discuss and decide how to deal with your condition.”

After saying this, he practically beat a hasty retreat, walking out quickly under the gaze of the three others. His previous wise demeanor had long since disappeared.

“Hahahahaha!” Loud laughter from Bai Xiuxiu came from behind him.

Back in his room in Bai Xiuxiu’s residence, Lan Xuanyu also couldn’t help but chuckle and shake his head. He took a moment to compose himself, then reconsidered Bai Xiuxiu’s earlier suggestion. It had to be admitted, her proposal did have some feasibility.

Even so, he still wasn’t very keen on trying it!

He turned on his communicator and checked the messages from Qian Lei, Liu Feng, and the others.

Liang Pu had already made contact, and everything was going smoothly. Liang Pu had earned some money, and had begun looking for a location related to opening a store.

As for finding a place to live outside, Qian Lei and the others had already started looking. According to Qian Lei, finding a decent place to live wouldn’t be too difficult and should be settled within a day or two.

Everything was proceeding smoothly according to his plan. At least the initial infiltration was essentially secure.

The next actions would be easier than initially anticipated. With the cover of Bai Xiuxiu being Huang Daoqi’s daughter, their future endeavors to make money would be much easier. Accumulating wealth would be a relatively long-term process. Moreover, to avoid exposure, Lan Xuanyu would temporarily stop taking out the forging metals. He would trade and sell according to the business practices of Sky Dragon Planet. Then, with the use of some Imperial resources, it wouldn’t be long before they could accumulate substantial wealth.

At that point, they could start expanding outward and look for more opportunities.

As long as they stayed away from Sky Dragon Planet, the chances of being exposed were minuscule. Even if they went to Sky Dragon Planet, as long as they didn’t reveal themselves to the First Seat of Sky Dragon Planet, their chances of being discovered weren’t high.

The only one the Sky Dragon had seen was Lan Xuanyu, and he would definitely be familiar with his aura. But the current Lan Xuanyu was different from before, and if he were to rely on the Dragon God Transformation State and use the Annihilation Divine Thunder for disguise, the Sky Dragon might not recognize him right away.
