With such strength, he could probably break through Inborn in just a few months if given the right method.’
Yang Jing thought this in his heart, looking at Lu Yuan, taking him very seriously.
He looked at Shangguan Haimoon, who was still holding onto Lu Yuan’s hand, and thought to himself that the Shangguan family really moved fast. He showed a smile on his face and greeted, “I was wondering which family’s young man could attract Miss Shangguan’s attention. So it’s Lu Pingxi.
Indeed, a beauty is a perfect match for a hero.
General Lu is a heroic man, and he deserves a beauty by his side.”
Lu Yuan couldn’t afford to neglect this Taichang Temple Minister who was of the same rank as him, from a big family background, and possibly carrying a special mission from the court. He withdrew his hand from Shangguan Haimoon and returned the greeting, “I am just a coarse military man, not worthy of being called a hero. Lord Yang, you praise me too much.”
“General Lu is being modest.”
Yang Jing was not fooled by Lu Yuan’s modesty. He looked at Lu Yuan and then glanced around, smiling as he said, “Is the general here to meet Master Ziyun? If so, you can come with us.
We, people from the six surnames and seven clans, are just about to pay our respects to Master Ziyun and present our greetings from each family.”
Lu Yuan was worried about how to meet Master Ziyun. At this moment, seeing people from the six surnames and seven clans, they could actually directly go and pay their respects, he was overjoyed and hurriedly said, “I indeed want to meet True Person Zhen Xuan. If Lord doesn’t mind, let’s go together.”
As he spoke, his gaze looked towards Ziyun Master’s direction. At this time, he saw that some people had already gone up to pay their respects to the six of them.
Actually, Lu Yuan recognized these people too. They were Dao masters from various Dao Veins who had previously set up lecture platforms to discuss the Dao at the foot of the mountain, including the Green Shadow Master.
Those who could pay their respects to Master Ziyun were indeed of high rank and status.
Either they had to be people from the six surnames and seven clans like Yang Jing, or they had to be masters of various Dao Veins. Those with lower backgrounds, even if they were first-class experts, didn’t have the qualifications to approach them.
Lu Yuan didn’t know if his status as Pingxi General and Marquis of Luyang was enough to qualify.
But if he went with the people of the six surnames and seven clans, then he should be qualified.
“Since the general doesn’t mind, let’s go together.”
Seeing that Lu Yuan was willing, Yang Jing smiled and stroked his beard, knowing in his heart that he had successfully sold a favor to Lu Yuan.
At this time, the Green Shadow Master and others, who were paying their respects in front of the hall, seemed to have finished their greetings and were walking down from the front of the hall.
There was no one else around in other areas who seemed interested in paying respects to Master Ziyun and the others, leaving an opening.
So Yang Jing said, “Since the others have finished their greetings, let’s go and see Master Ziyun now.”
No one had any objections, so they followed Yang Jing to the stairs, preparing to meet Master Ziyun.
Along the way, the other people from the six surnames and seven clans greeted Lu Yuan and introduced themselves.
Through these introductions, Lu Yuan understood why these people were qualified to meet Master Ziyun.
The older people from the six surnames and seven clans present were officials above the third or fourth rank in the court, occupying high positions and wielding great power. The younger ones were all legitimate heirs of the major families, destined to become family leaders in the future.
Moreover, these people from the big families all had titles. Whether they were dukes or marquises, their ranks were higher than Lu Yuan’s. Even Shangguan Haimoon had the title of County Princess of Guanghai.
These were the real people of power.
To put it bluntly, the fate of Da Yue for the next hundred years was in the hands of these people in front of them.
Such a group of people, of course, were qualified to pay their respects to Master Ziyun.
After conversing with these people, Lu Yuan gained a deeper understanding of the background of the six surnames and seven clans.
Let’s not mention their knowledge and cultivation, as they were all standard features of big families and would not be too different.
In terms of strength alone, every outstanding young man present, whether an aspiring junior or a pillar of the family, was second or top-tier.
The growth rate of these people was not inferior to Lu Yuan’s and Zhou Qing’s, and some were even stronger than the two of them at the same age.
Take Yang Jing for example, he was only in his early forties and had already reached the pinnacle of the first-class.
Considering the background of these big families, breaking through Innate for him was almost a certainty.
The only question was whether he would break through within five years or ten years.
It seemed that his pace was slower than Lu Yuan’s, but you had to consider the many medicines Lu Yuan had taken, the help of the Jade Immortal Fate, and even the experience solidification of his Attribute Template.
With many golden fingers, he was only ten years faster than Yang Jing, which showed the power and depth of the latter’s foundation.
And not just Yang Jing, other first-class experts present were also not weak in terms of strength, though their innate talent and gift were slightly worse than Yang Jing’s.
Breaking through Innate might be difficult for them in the future, but it should not be too challenging for them to reach the pinnacle of the first-class.
As for the younger disciples of the various clans present, it was too early to tell as they were too young.
However, given their background and status, a first-class pinnacle level of strength would be guaranteed in the future.
Breaking through Innate was not impossible.
When Chu Wei said that he was just average in terms of talent within his family, it was not him being sarcastic; he really was just average..
