Even Lu Ling and the other girls were shocked and exclaimed repeatedly when they saw the Sky City as it is now.

What's more, Zhu Zhuqing is a "country girl" who has hardly ever seen the world.

The experience of those few hours completely shattered her worldview.

Am I still in Douluo Continent?

Zhu Zhuqing even asked herself this question many times in her heart.

Even setting aside the Sky City she had seen before, the floating island she was standing on now was enough to overturn Zhu Zhuqing's understanding of the world.

Such a massive island of buildings is actually able to float high in the sky!

Aside from a miracle, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't think of any other explanation.

Gods?

Looking at the buildings that rise faintly from the ground, one can only think of the true builders of the Sky City.

That legendary Heavenly King, His Majesty Lu Yan.

A light, like that of a devout believer, flashed in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes.

Then, she looked at Lu Ling and the other girls again, a look of gratitude flashing in her eyes.

Not being good with words, she didn't say anything more.

But the gratitude he felt for everyone was etched deep in his heart.

"Hehe, Zhuqing, you're quite good." Just as everyone's attention was drawn to the scene Lu Yan had created in the distance.

As if she had eyes in the back of her head, Qian Renxue turned around and whispered these words to Zhu Qing.

"Sister Xue'er..." Zhu Zhuqing bit her lip. She felt that Qian Renxue's gaze always seemed to be full of profound meaning.

Meanwhile, in the distance, Lu Yan, who was working on the project, suddenly paused his mechanical movements under everyone's watchful eyes.

A glint of wit flashed in his otherwise ruthless gaze.

"Your Majesty?" The engineering staff member following Lu Yan noticed Lu Yan's unusual behavior and quickly spoke up.

They had been following Lu Yan as his assistants for over a year, and they had already witnessed this kind of change in Lu Yan several times.

It is clear that His Majesty has likely given new instructions.

However, to their surprise, Lu Yan simply ordered that today's project should end there.

He transformed into a streak of light and vanished from the spot.

This left everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.

As everyone watched, Lu Yan, transformed into a stream of light, approached the floating island from afar.

Cutting through the sky, in the blink of an eye, they landed on the floating island, beside everyone.

The light faded, revealing Lu Yan's figure.

"Yanyan!" Dugu Yan, the little snake girl, exclaimed and pounced on him immediately. Her movements were so fast that even her own sister, Lu Ling, could not keep up.

"Yanyan, it's been a while since I last saw you, you've grown up so much!" Lu Yan hugged Dugu Yan tightly in his arms, feeling the softness of her body, and whispered in her ear.

"Ah!" Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan blushed. How could she not know what Lu Yan meant? Having not felt Lu Yan's embrace for so long, her heart was pounding like a deer.

"Do you like it?" A hint of shyness flashed in her eyes, but she still spoke boldly in Lu Yan's ear.

"Of course I like her, I will always like Yanyan!" Lu Yan replied tenderly.

"Hmph, and you haven't sent a single word to me in the past six months!" Dugu Yan snorted and pushed Lu Yan away.

Although they went on their travels so as not to disturb Lu Yan's seclusion, and also because of Lu Ling.

However, even though Lu Yan was in seclusion, it was impossible for him to completely sever ties with them.

Every two or three months, Lu Yan would still take some time to connect with them in his heart and simply express his longing for them.

This is a privilege reserved for the girls.

However, in the past six months, Lu Yan had been unable to concentrate on this connection because his primordial spirit was undergoing a transformation.

"I just wanted to end my seclusion sooner so I could come out and be with you." Seeing Dugu Yan's feigned reproach, Lu Yan smiled slightly and reached out to gently pinch her upturned nose.

"Then, Yan Yan, are you ready to leave seclusion now?" Dugu Yan looked at Lu Yan with surprise.

"There's just one last bit left, but it should be done in the next day or two." Lu Yan nodded: "The most crucial step is basically complete."

"Otherwise, I would have found it difficult to be present to see you all today."

In fact, being distracted like this is not easy either.

However, Lu Yan also really missed them.

Just as Dugu Yan was about to speak, a voice interrupted her.

"Brother, you still know you're here to see 'us'!"

"Anyone who didn't know better would think you came here specifically to see Sister Yan Yan!" The sarcastic, sour voice came from Lu Ling.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan blushed slightly and quickly moved aside.

Instead, Lu Yan pushed Lu Ling away as she approached, saying, "Go away, this is none of your business, go cool off somewhere else!"

"You stinky old man! Who cares about you?" Lu Ling ran away angrily, looking both wronged and adorable.

This caused everyone present to smile.

However, the smiles on Ye Lingling and Ning Rongrong's faces quickly turned red.

Because Lu Yan embraced them one after the other, starting with Ye Lingling.

Chapter 339 The Desire to Collect, A Small Matter

The tender moment didn't last long. After sharing their feelings of longing with the women, Lu Yan casually comforted the sulking Lu Ling.

He chatted with the two elders, Dugu Boye and Renxin, for a few more minutes, then glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, smiled slightly, and nodded as a greeting.

He then hurriedly said goodbye to everyone again.

This time, not even this clone was left behind; it simply vanished into nothingness.

They transformed into countless colorful energy points, merging into the world of Sky City.

"Hmph!" Watching her older brother leave in a hurry, Lu Ling huffed twice unhappily, clearly still sulking.

He cursed the old man in his heart. He had missed him so much these past two years, and this stinky brother just brushed him off like this!

When the women saw Lu Yan leave, a hint of reluctance flashed in their eyes, but they were relieved when they thought that Lu Yan would come out of seclusion soon.

Even the worries brought about by the news about Bibi Dong that Qian Renxue had told them were swept away.

It was as if they had found a pillar of support; with Lu Yan by their side, nothing was a problem.

"So, what's it like to meet the legendary Heavenly King for the first time?" At this moment, Qian Renxue pulled Zhu Zhuqing to her side, looking at her with a playful expression.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingling's gaze fell upon Zhu Zhuqing, and a hint of curiosity flashed in her seemingly expressive eyes.

Dugu Yan finally realized what was happening. Her gaze swept over Qian Renxue's stunning face, and then over her best friend's gentle features.

He suddenly realized something, and then stared at Zhu Zhuqing with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Even the two young girls, Ning Rongrong and Lu Ling, stared wide-eyed, as if they had thought of something unbelievable.

Their gazes swept over everyone, eventually settling on Zhu Zhuqing as well.

For some reason, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhu Zhuqing felt an immense pressure.

But she had no choice but to answer Qian Renxue's words. After a moment of silence with her head down, Zhu Zhuqing finally spoke.

"I sense that His Majesty the Heavenly King is somewhat different from others." Zhu Zhuqing's voice carried a coldness tinged with uncertainty.

"Mysterious, powerful, and legendary, Your Majesty also seems very gentle and unpretentious."

In fact, if it weren't for the unusual way Lu Yan appeared, his appearance of transforming into a stream of light and gathering and dispersing at will would have been too stunning.

Zhu Zhuqing even felt that this legendary figure had the same temperament as an ordinary teenager of their age, with no significant difference.

However, Lu Yan's incomparably handsome face was far beyond what an ordinary young man could compare to.

In addition, Zhu Zhuqing always felt that Lu Yan exuded an aura that made her inexplicably want to get closer to him.

Just like when practicing visualization techniques, one faces the great being being visualized.

However, thinking about how Lu Yan had embraced each of the women in his arms earlier, Zhu Zhuqing felt her cheeks inexplicably burning.

The rumors surrounding this person seem to be true.

However, for some reason, Zhu Zhuqing felt that all of this was reasonable.

It was completely impossible to connect Lu Yan with Dai Mubai, Shrek Academy, and the noble young masters he had met before.

The same philandering is considered perfectly normal when it comes to Lu Yan.

Slightly dazed, Zhu Zhuqing finally realized that those scumbags could never compare to Lu Yan.

How could they possibly rival the achievements of this one?

On the Douluo Continent, what does it matter if His Majesty the Heavenly King has a few more spouses!

I'm afraid that if this sage were willing, countless women would be willing to offer themselves to him.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhuqing's heart trembled slightly. Her gaze met Qian Renxue's, and her cheeks flushed unconsciously.

"It's truly unique, and you might see even more differences in the future!" Qian Renxue gave Zhu Zhuqing a bright smile.

Instantly, Zhu Zhuqing felt her cheeks burning, and she lowered her head, almost burying it in the pair of enormous slimes on her chest.

She wanted to look down at her toes, but her view was completely blocked.

However, Zhu Zhuqing did not feel any aversion to her own speculations.

I just feel that if that's really the case, then it's actually her good fortune.

After all, this is His Majesty the Heavenly King, and many people would be eager to serve under such a powerful figure!

What merit or ability does Zhu Zhuqing possess?

With her mind in turmoil, Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks flushed even more.
