Ninth Level of Innate Realm, Inheritance Hall

Inside Lu Ze's sleeping palace, while discussions buzzed outside, Lu Ze had already begun his cultivation in the practice room.

Despite winning against Liu Yi'er in their recent battle, Lu Ze did not let it get to his head. The fight, more than a fair contest, seemed like Liu Yi'er deliberately allowed him to win. If she had used all her cultivation or unleashed powerful Heaven-level martial arts, Lu Ze wouldn't have been confident in defeating her.

His cultivation realm was still his weakness.

In three days, when facing Mu Yunyue, there was no way she would limit her cultivation to his level. In this battle, Lu Ze couldn't afford any mishaps. He had to win, making Mu Yunyue pay a painful price.

With these thoughts in mind, he took out about a dozen Grade Three Qi Gathering Pills pillaged from the demonic beast-infested mountains and swallowed them.
