355: mistakes

Xu Guanghai replied: "Uncle Wei, this is all thanks to Long Yuan. I have no idea how he managed to obtain this information!"

"Technically, only the people from the Third Company of the Divine Machine Camp were present at the time, and there were no insiders from our Xu Family in that unit. If Long Yuan hadn't informed Ruo Ying, I fear we would still be kept in the dark."

Hearing this, Xu Chuanwei said in surprise: "This method is truly extraordinary. Can you have Ruo Ying probe and ask Long Yuan how he managed to do it?"

"Alright, I will have Ruo Ying try!" Xu Guanghai nodded.

Xu Chuanwei turned to Xu Chuanzhong beside him and asked: "Brother Zhong, what is your take on this?"

Xu Chuanzhong's expression tightened slightly as he said: "This light arrow is indeed extraordinary! Compared to our Martial Dao Profound Qi, its quality is more than four times higher!"

Xu Chuanxin, on the other side, also spoke up: "In my opinion, it could reach five times! To raze this small mountain, it would be impossible without five times the Profound Qi compared to this light arrow!"

"Can Guanghai do it?" Xu Chuanwei turned to ask again.

Xu Guanghai's face flushed, and he laughed sheepishly: "Uncle Wei, I haven't reached the Martial Commander Realm yet..."

Xu Chuanwei pondered for a moment and sighed: "It seems that Liu Rushi must possess Exotic Energy!"

"Exotic Energy?!" The people in the meeting were shaken, all looking at him in shock.

Xu Chuanwei nodded and said: "The power system of Exotic Energy is different from the Martial Dao. Generally speaking, its quality is much higher than Profound Qi, and its variations are far more colorful. If you also possessed Exotic Energy, you would discover upon further research that it is unfathomable and incredibly profound, not something that can be covered by a simple power system!"

"Good heavens..."

"No wonder Liu Rushi, at such a young age, could reach such a level of combat power..."

"I am so envious of those who possess Exotic Energy..."

"What is there to envy? Liu Rushi is clearly a greater threat to our Xu Family now!"

"Indeed..."

"To think the Liu Family actually produced such a super Genius!"

"Does this mean, Uncle Wei, that your research on Exotic Energy has also deepened?"

"The light arrow she released was cyan; could this Liu Rushi's Exotic Energy be of the Wood attribute?"

"Very likely!"

The Elders discussed heatedly, their words filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment...

Xu Chuanwei waved his hand to signal everyone to quiet down, then said: "Based on my research results on Exotic Energy, Liu Rushi's Exotic Energy should indeed be of the Wood attribute. Moreover, its quality is significantly higher than ordinary Exotic Energy, which shows that her Aptitude is also outstanding among those with Exotic Energy!"

"Oh..."

"Does she really have the potential to reach the Martial King Realm?" the Third Elder, Xu Guanghu, asked in surprise.

"Reaching the Martial King Realm is only a matter of time! I fear her future will go far beyond the Martial King Realm!" Xu Chuanwei sighed.

"What?!?" The Elders of the Xu Family were greatly shocked upon hearing this, their expressions turning grave one by one!

They naturally believed Xu Chuanwei's words implicitly; if there was anyone among them whose words were the most authoritative, it was certainly him.

Xu Chuanwei was not only a solid Martial King Middle Stage expert, but he also possessed Exotic Energy himself and had studied Exotic Energy for a long time. Both his strength and insight were far above everyone else's!

Xu Guanghu was silent for a moment, then asked: "Then Uncle Wei, what is your take on Long Yuan's strength?"

Xu Chuanwei pondered slightly and said: "Long Yuan's potential is clearly even greater than Liu Rushi's; this point is beyond doubt!"

"Wow!!!" The Elders became excited again upon hearing this. With these words from Xu Chuanwei, it was enough to prove that the Xu Family's previous focus and support for Long Yuan were all worth it.

Xu Guanghai, in particular, was ecstatic, his face practically crinkling with a smile...

"And..." Xu Chuanwei mused.

"And what?!" Xu Guanghu quickly followed up.

"Judging from the information sent earlier, Long Yuan seems to have quite a bit of insight into Exotic Energy. He even gave Exotic Energy an accurate name, calling it 'Spiritual Qi,' and referred to all those who possess Exotic Energy as 'Spiritual Power Seed.' I believe he not only possesses extremely high Spiritual Power potential, but his research into Spiritual Power may be even more profound than my own!"

"It is actually like this?!" The Elders in the meeting were extremely astonished.

Xu Chuanwei casually projected a light screen, and the scene showed Liu Rushi Cultivating beside a green lotus in a pond. One could see Spiritual Qi surging around her body, forming a small funnel, with wisps of Spiritual Qi continuously entering her body, among which was a faint wood-cyan color...

"This is information I just received not long ago from the Xuanji Tower!" Xu Chuanwei said.

Everyone watched this picturesque "beautiful scene," and in their hearts, they all felt a strange sensation. If only this Liu Rushi were a member of the Xu Family, how good that would be!

Unfortunately, she belonged to the Liu Family, and the Liu Family and the Xu Family were not as friendly as they appeared on the surface. They were an emerging major Family that always wanted to bite a piece of flesh and drink a mouthful of blood from the established aristocratic families, ideally replacing them. Therefore, the Liu Family had long since had conflicts and contradictions with the Xu Family on some business levels. However, these things were not yet brought to the table; they were mostly just small probes, and even if someone really brought them up, they would likely be dismissed with a single sentence.

But for the Xu Family, who had been able to maintain their Legacy for a thousand years, they were definitely not careless people. The Liu Family had long been placed on their blacklist as an opponent to be guarded against. Therefore, the appearance of the super Genius Liu Rushi was what caused the entire Xu Family to be shaken!

Especially now, when the Xu Family was closely monitoring Long Yuan's growth and had basically decided to bring him onto the Xu Family's great ship, the sudden appearance of Liu Rushi caught the Xu Family off guard!

Because the Xu Family had not paid attention to the information about Liu Rushi before, this could be said to be a huge mistake, and those clan members responsible for watching the Liu Family would likely be severely punished...

The Elders looked at the text information next to the light screen, which recounted a different matter. It turned out that this green lotus was an extremely rare Heaven And Earth Treasure of Spiritual Power, born in a territory of the Tong Family of Nanming, called "Falling Flower Valley." Liu Rushi had originally obtained this information at the Xuanji Tower and then went there with the intention of seizing this item. However, the green lotus was no ordinary object and actually knocked her unconscious. Later, after Long Yuan brought people to find them and subdued her, finally, under Long Yuan's mediation, the Tong Family and the Liu Family reached an agreement to cooperate, exchanging resources and developing together. However, as the stronger party in the cooperation, the Liu Family undoubtedly benefited the most. This geomantic treasure land for Cultivating became Liu Rushi's private "Immortal Cave," and only in the outer areas were the younger generation of the Tong Family allowed to Cultivate...

After reading the information, Xu Guanghu noticed an issue and said: "Uncle Wei, in this process, it seems there was no emotional exchange between Long Yuan and Liu Rushi; it was strictly business. This can be considered a good thing for our little niece Ruo Ying, right?"
