Mu Chunqiu's previous phrase "young friend" only triggered Lu Yan's subconscious association with the figure behind the Longevity version, causing him to be slightly out of composure.
Mu Chunqiu, however, had no connection with the figure behind the Longevity version, and after a brief adjustment, he became accustomed to it.
But the next sentence from Mu Chunqiu, "I've seen your eyes before," sent a chill down Lu Yan's heart.
Due to the cross-version encounter, the Mu True Monarch before him might not remember the details, but Lu Yan remembered everything clearly.
The origin of Mu Chunqiu's words came from the time when Lu Yan was representing the heavens. Mu Chunqiu resisted fiercely against the Emperor's phantom and refused to kneel.
Back then, Lu Yan wielded the Power of Heavenly Dao and paid no heed to Mu Chunqiu who was just an ordinary person. A casual glance revealing the might of the Celestial Dao had made Mu Chunqiu completely subdued.
