Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Clay, the Creator of All Things

Hu Liena repeated the name softly, her fingertips unconsciously gripping the hem of her skirt, her heart leaping in her throat.

She knew that name all too well.

Several months ago, news of the destruction of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the death of Yu Yuanzhen spread throughout the Douluo Continent.

The name "Lu Yan" was like a heavy boulder, crashing down on the hearts of the entire Soul Master world.

In her mind, Lu Yan was a peak existence that even ordinary titled Douluo could look up to.

She was someone even her teacher, Bibi Dong, treated with great respect.

It also subtly reveals that the Heavenly King possesses strength comparable to a peak level 98 Douluo.

But this person in front of me?

Hu Liena's gaze fell on Lu Yan's handsome face, then quickly swept over his slightly thin figure, and a few doubts arose in her heart.

Is it a case of the same name?

Undoubtedly, Hu Liena had seen the portrait of that Heavenly King.

The "Lu Yan" in front of us, although also top-tier in looks, is completely different from the other two.

Besides, how could an "ordinary soul master" who could be chased by a soul beast that has been around for tens of thousands of years be the famous Tianyan King Lu Yan of Douluo Continent?

"What a coincidence!" Hu Liena suppressed the turmoil in her heart, trying her best to maintain a sweet smile on her face, her fox-like eyes curving.

"I never expected to meet a friend here who shares the same name as the legendary King Tianyan."

Hu Liena spoke casually, but her heart was pounding.

Is it really a coincidence?

Hu Liena may be a bit superficial and kind-hearted, but she is definitely not stupid.

Even if she were slow to realize it, Hu Liena was beginning to doubt Lu Yan's identity.

After all, Lu Yan had previously ignored the imposing aura of Ghost Douluo, a titled Douluo.

So, could the person in front of me really be that one?

Tianyan King, Lu Yan?

Chapter 257 Reporting to His Holiness the Pope

Hu Liena wasn't the only one who questioned Lu Yan's identity.

Xie Yue reacted even faster than Hu Liena.

He already had suspicions about Lu Yan's unusual behavior, and the moment the name "Lu Yan" was uttered by Hu Liena...

Xie Yue was struck dumb, and the movement of his fingertips abruptly stopped.

"Lu Yan?!"

Xie Yue's pupils suddenly contracted, his gaze filled with surprise and doubt as he looked Lu Yan up and down, his eyes filled with disbelief.

That Lu Yan?

The one who defeated Yu Yuanzhen?

The one belonging to the Heavenly King?

"No way!" Xie Yue roared inwardly, but his face remained expressionless, though the wariness in his eyes deepened.

He knew all too well what the name represented.

Compared to Hu Liena, Xie Yue had much more on his mind.

If the person in front of them is really Lu Yan, then their soul hunt in the Star Dou Great Forest might encounter some unexpected changes.

It should be noted that among Lu Yan's many identities, he holds the title of Guest Elder of the Spirit Hall.

Unfortunately, Lu Yan was a guest elder of the Hall of Offerings faction.

However, they belong to the Papal faction, and are the absolute direct descendants of the Papal faction.

It should be noted that although both belong to the Spirit Hall, they are now irreconcilable enemies.

If the Lu Yan in front of me is really the Lu Yan of the legends.

If they harbor any ill intentions, can Elder Ju and Elder Gui really protect them?

Just thinking about this made Xie Yue break out in a cold sweat.

Hopefully, this is just a coincidence of people sharing the same name!

Xie Yue wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and silently prayed.

At this moment, Lu Yan, who was watching Chrysanthemum Douluo fight against the Dark Evil God Tiger, suddenly turned around and looked at Xie Yue.

"Lord Lu Yan, hello." Seeing Lu Yan suddenly turn around, Xie Yue felt her heart tighten and subconsciously greeted him, "My name is Xie Yue, and I am Hu Liena's brother."

"Oh? Hello, Brother Xieyue." Lu Yan looked at Xieyue with a smile, and asked with a hint of amusement, "Brother Xieyue, why are you sweating so much? Are you hot?"

"Yes, yes, it's too hot." Xie Yue quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and nodded in agreement.

"Really? It's only early June, and we're still in the Star Dou Great Forest. Isn't it quite cool here?" Lu Yan raised an eyebrow and then spoke.

"Brother Xieyue, is there perhaps some unspeakable difficulty you are facing?"

Seeing Lu Yan raise his eyebrows, Xie Yue felt a chill run down her spine, her thoughts racing, and she hurriedly spoke.

"I have been frail since childhood, please forgive my poor health." As he said this, Xie Yue chuckled and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Oh, I see." Lu Yan suddenly understood, nodded, and then said to Xie Yue with concern, "Brother Xie Yue, you must take care of your health!"

"Thank you for your concern!" Xie Yue quickly showed his gratitude, while inwardly he breathed a sigh of relief.

Is this considered a bluff?

However, Hu Liena suddenly spoke up at this moment: "Brother, you have been weak since childhood, how come I didn't know?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Yue's expression instantly froze on his face.

Nana, why are you interrupting at a time like this!

Are you trying to kill your brother?

"Perhaps it wasn't obvious before, so you didn't notice, Nana," Xie Yue said, trying to salvage the situation.

But then he discovered that his younger sister's fox-like eyes were smiling with a sinister grin.

"Haha." Lu Yan couldn't help but laugh. This little fox was quite interesting, and this brother and sister pair was quite interesting as well.

interesting.

Upon hearing Lu Yan's laughter, Xie Yue immediately realized that Lu Yan was deliberately teasing her!

I'm afraid my little scheme has already been seen through by the other party.

This might mean that the person in front of us is most likely the legendary Lord Lu Yan.

Thinking of this, Xie Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

Judging from their attitude, they didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards them.

Thus, a self-deprecating smile appeared on Xie Yue's face.

At this moment, Hu Liena also looked at Lu Yan with her big, bright eyes.

At this moment, Hu Liena was almost certain of Lu Yan's identity.

But why would he pretend to be being chased?

Hu Liena's gaze lingered on Lu Yan, a hint of inquiry flashing in her eyes.

"What, am I that good-looking?" Lu Yan smiled slightly as he spoke to Hu Liena, whose gaze was fixed on him.

Immediately, the little fox's cheeks flushed slightly, and she quickly explained, "No, I was just curious why Lord Lu Yan would come here."

At this moment, although Hu Liena had confirmed Lu Yan's identity, her reaction was completely different from that of her brother.

Perhaps out of instinct, Hu Liena did not sense the slightest malice from Lu Yan, and naturally, she felt no worry.

She simply felt that Lu Yan in front of her had no airs of a top expert; on the contrary, he was approachable and gave people a very friendly feeling.

For some reason, Hu Liena suddenly thought of the gossip and rumors circulating about Lu Yan.

Instantly, Hu Liena's cheeks flushed red again, and her heart raced.

"Didn't you see? I was just playing with the cat!" After saying this, Lu Yan turned around and continued to watch the battle between the man and the tiger.

Upon hearing this, Hu Liena and her brother glanced at Chrysanthemum Douluo, who was already at a disadvantage, and exchanged a look without saying a word.

Yan, who had been ignoring the interaction between the three, took it all in.

He remained silent for a long time without uttering a single word.

From beginning to end, Yan kept a close eye on Hu Liena's every move.

Hu Liena's amazement when she saw Lu Yan, her nervousness when Lu Yan approached, the change in her breathing, and her reaction when she first heard the name "Lu Yan".

A strange look flashed across his eyes...

Especially the blush that flashed across Hu Liena's face at the end.

She was so charming and beautiful.

However, every detail was like a needle, piercing Yan's heart.

That was a side of Nana he had never seen shown to him before.

In an instant, Yan was consumed by jealousy.

"Lu Yan?" Yan murmured the name in his heart, his gaze falling on Lu Yan's face, filled with undisguised hostility.

Lu Yan? Even if he really is that Heavenly King, so what?

Don't forget, if it really is that person, he is a guest elder of the Hall of Offerings faction!

They are destined to be our future enemies!

Nana, you need to wake up! It's impossible for you two!

However, Yan couldn't help but think of the rumors circulating about Lu Yan.
