The next morning, Tushan Ling arrived as promised and brought Qinchuan a piece of good news.
The Tushan Clan was willing to change their conditions and provide Qinchuan with a level-five talisman array. As long as Qinchuan helped a Divine Transformation Stage cultivator of the Tushan Clan overcome a heavenly tribulation or minor tribulation, he would be able to obtain the level-five talisman array provided by the Tushan Clan. If Qinchuan wanted a battle array, he would have to use up three chances!
Most importantly, both the auxiliary array and the battle array would be provided randomly. Qinchuan could not choose by himself.
Qinchuan only briefly considered the new condition of the Tushan Clan before agreeing. With his current situation, it was already very good to be able to obtain such a condition. If he continued to bargain with the Tushan Clan, he would be ungrateful.
After finalizing some details, Qinchuan and Tushan Ling agreed to visit the Tushan Clan as a guest after going to Tron Nebula to comprehend the Dao runes. They would conduct experiments before the cooperation.
After sending off the satisfied Tushan Ling, Qinchuan immediately set off for Rose City. He was prepared to solve some of Lü Zi's worries before leaving.
When Qinchuan arrived at Rose City, it was already two days later. Angel's death did not cause too much of an impact on the daily operations of Rose City. However, Lü Zi, who had become the new Grand Duke, was being discussed by many people.
Qinchuan did not walk into the Grand Duke's Mansion openly. Instead, he snuck in. However, what made Qinchuan feel very awkward was that he was discovered by the Grand Duke's Mansion's alarm system.
"Alert!
Alert!
Intruder discovered!
Coordinates B142! "
"Alert!
Alert!
Intruder discovered!
Coordinates B142! "
Qinchuan could not help but reveal a look of astonishment when he heard the ear-piercing alarm. He did not expect to be discovered as soon as he entered the Grand Duke's Mansion!
Whoosh!
Just as Qinchuan was thinking about this, dozens of figures suddenly appeared around him and surrounded him!
"Who are you? Why are you trespassing into the Grand Duke's Mansion?"
The leader looked at Qinchuan with vigilance. It seemed like he was going to attack Qinchuan at any moment!
Qinchuan immediately raised his hand and replied, "Don't attack me. I'm a good person. I know your new Grand Duke and Sophie."
Hearing Qinchuan's words, the man asked suspiciously, "You know Officer Sophie?"
Qin Chuan nodded. "That's right, it's Sophie."
Qinchuan laughed out loud after Sophie's words exposed his thoughts. He said, "No, no, no, no. I just felt that it was too troublesome to go through the main entrance and register, so I came in directly."
Sophie smiled and said to Qinchuan, "It's normal for you to have such worries. I don't have any opinions, nor do I have the right to give any opinions. Let's go, I'll take you to see the Grand Duke."
Qinchuan followed Sophie into the depths of the Grand Duke's Mansion. He asked Sophie curiously, "Did the Grand Duke's Mansion have such an excellent alarm system in the past?"
Sophie shook her head and explained, "This is the latest alarm system developed by Tron Nebula's Anju Group. It was bought and installed a few days ago. You're the first person to be caught by this alarm system."
Qinchuan smiled awkwardly. He asked, "What's the highest realm this alarm system can catch?"
"The early stage of the Dongxu realm," Sophie replied.
Sophie replied, "Even if we were to be caught by the alarm system, we wouldn't be able to defend against a middle Dongxu realm cultivator. That's why we didn't consider the more powerful version."
Qinchuan raised his eyebrows at Sophie's words. He asked, "So you're saying that you have a way to defend against an early Dongxu realm cultivator?"
Sophie nodded and said to Qinchuan, "That's right. When we bought this alarm system, we also bought a defense system. It's installed in the Grand Duke's office. This defense system has the functions of defense, counterattack, and self-repair. It's enough to defend against an early Dongxu realm cultivator's attack. Unfortunately, this defense system is a one-time use item. It will lose its effect after one use."
Qinchuan chuckled and asked, "These two systems must have cost a lot of money, right?"
Sophie nodded and replied, "These two systems cost the Grand Duke's Mansion nearly two hundred years of tax revenue. The cost is indeed not small. But to protect the Grand Duke's safety, it's all worth it."
"You're very thoughtful." Qinchuan grinned and said to Sophie, "You've worked hard."
"This is what we should do."
Sophie smiled and stopped in front of a large door. She said to Qinchuan, "This is the Grand Duke's office. You can go in. I won't disturb you."
Qinchuan stepped forward and pushed open the door. He walked inside. After passing through a corridor that wasn't too long, he finally saw Lü Zi, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
At this moment, Lv Zi was wearing a purple dress with a black top hat on her head. She had an outstanding temperament and had the dignified aura of someone in a high position. She sat in front of the table and was meticulously handling official business. Her expression was somewhat solemn.
"Put the new official business on the left side of the desk. Prepare a steak for me for lunch. Add a piece of rock sugar to my coffee. Also, what happened to the alarm system just now?
Did someone hack into it or is there a problem with the system? "
Qinchuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Lü Zi say these words without even raising her head. He teased, "Grand Duke, who are you talking to?"
Hearing Qinchuan's familiar voice, Lü Zi immediately raised her head and looked at Qinchuan. A hint of pleasant surprise appeared on her charming face. She said to Qinchuan, "You're back?"
As she spoke, Lü Zi's figure flashed and appeared in front of Qinchuan. She suddenly threw herself into Qinchuan's arms. Qinchuan hugged Lü Zi and said with a smile, "It's only been a few days since we last met, but you're already a Soul Formation cultivator. Congratulations."
"I've been working very hard!"
Lü Zi looked up at Qinchuan with a smile in her eyes. "Although I know I'm still a long way from catching up to you, at least I can see your back!"
"Your efforts haven't been in vain."
Qinchuan gently stroked Lü Zi's hair and said in a low voice, "But you have to pay attention to the balance between work and rest. Don't tire yourself out."
"Qinchuan, there's something I have to talk to you about."
Lü Zi looked at Qinchuan with a serious expression. Just as she was about to continue speaking, Qinchuan raised his hand and covered her red lips.
"Let a man like me confess," Qinchuan looked at Lü Zi with a gentle gaze and said softly, "I like you. Be my girlfriend."
