"In short, it's not what you think."
After stopping Wang Lu with a powerful means and coaxing him back to Sacred Leaf Residence, Zhan Ziye pondered for a long time and then opened his mouth to say something.
Wang Lu, who was invited back to his residence by Zhan Ziye's thunder body combination, listened to his words, pondered for a long time, and then frowned. "It's not what I think?"
Sacred Leaf Shaman, who had already changed her clothes, still had a blush on her face. With some difficulty, she softly said, "I know that scene just now is very easy to misunderstand, but it's really not what you think!"
Wang Lu looked at Shaman with some surprise. "Even you say that?"
With that, Wang Lu fell into contemplation and then softly said, "I thought that you two were comparing notes with each other in order to speed up your healing, or maybe Senior Brother Ziye was helping you sort out your cultivation method. But since you said that it's not what I think … it seems that A Ye's Green Hat King can't run away."
"Wait a minute!" Zhan Ziye was stunned. "You actually thought that we were comparing notes in order to speed up our healing?"
Wang Lu sighed. "Sure enough, it's too deviating from common sense, isn't it?"
"No, I just think that, with your character, it's the biggest abnormality for you to actually say such a normal and reasonable conjecture!" Zhan Ziye was filled with emotion. "According to the analysis of the sect, your first reaction should be that the two of us are … engaging in illicit affairs."
Speaking of illicit affairs, Zhan Ziye was a bit embarrassed. Shaman also blushed and turned her head away. Although the scene just now was indeed not her doing anything unkind to her husband, it was indeed too embarrassing.
Wang Lu said, "If it were any other man, I would certainly think so. The problem is that the male cultivators of Ten Thousand Arts Sect have always been destined to be alone for life, storing their Yuanyang until death. Therefore, as the lead disciple of Ten Thousand Arts Sect, of course, you can't do that kind of thing. You don't even need to guess. "
Zhan Ziye's expression was complicated. "Hearing you say that, I'm really not happy at all."
Wang Lu said, "Not happy? Then let me rephrase it: congratulations on successfully obtaining a brand new life experience with a beautiful young woman. I will help you cover up A Ye. By the way, I also have a variety of secret medicines that Master left for me. Do you need some to liven things up … "
"… Forget it. I'm destined to be alone for the rest of my life."

"In short, why have you come to me this time?"
After reluctantly resolving the misunderstanding, Zhan Ziye had to ask Wang Lu about his intentions.
Although everything was just a misunderstanding, if he was really here to play, then don't blame me for falling out with him.
"Well, if you want to talk business. The main thing is to tell you two injured people to be careful, Shengjing Sect team may make a comeback. "
Zhan Ziye's expression immediately turned serious. "Shengjing Sect people? What happened? "
"To put it simply, the situation forced them to take action to prove their worth," said Wang Lu. Previously, their team raid was not inspired by Golden City. It was completely their own initiative, and this was very sensitive when the relationship between the two sides was in a stalemate. Because Golden City has its own strategic layout, they don't want anyone to complicate the issue. If Shengjing Sect team had a brilliant result and successfully killed one or two of the five spirit masters, then they could return triumphantly with this achievement. At that time, even the master of Golden City would have nothing to say. Unfortunately, their result was not ideal. After paying a painful price, they couldn't bring any substantial results. Instead, they caused trouble for Golden City. "
Zhan Ziye frowned. His analysis of the situation was somewhat slow, but Shaman has already understood all of this. "Although A Ye and I have been seriously injured, Golden City is in an all-out war with Flaming Valley, so they can't spare more strength to expand the results. Therefore, seriously injuring us is meaningless to Golden City. On the contrary, A Ye's retaliation actually caused them to suffer a real loss. "
Wang Lu said, "Therefore, the master of Golden City is very angry at Shengjing Sect team for acting on their own initiative, and if Shengjing Sect team wants to save the situation, they must prove their own value. Now, they either accept the request of Golden City to enter the battlefield of Flaming Valley and fight head-on with that group of barbarians. Or they want to kill A Ye, or they want to target you. And among the three, to fight head-on with Flaming Valley is to bring about their own destruction. A Ye is elusive, so unless Qiong Hua personally comes forward, it's very difficult to catch him. Only you two, who can peacefully recuperate in the Eternal Tree, are the best targets. "
Shaman said, "Eternal Tree is protected by the previous Sacred Leaves, so it's not as open as Harmony River, so there's no need to worry about our safety."
"Very well, as long as you don't worry." Wang Lu indifferently shrugged. "Then I'll go, you guys continue."
With that, Wang Lu flew away on his flying sword, leaving behind the master and follower of Sacred Leaf who were still somewhat at a loss.
"He … just to remind us, he deliberately came here?"
Zhan Ziye said, "According to the data, Wang Lu has always done things unexpectedly, and it's difficult to use common sense to measure him. However, the data also shows that although his behavior is unpredictable, he rarely does useless things. This time, he came here … "
Speaking to this, Zhan Ziye's face suddenly turned black, because he thought, 'Could it be that Wang Lu predicted that in the process of him and Shaman rebuilding their foundation, there would be an awkward situation, so he deliberately came here to collect evidence?'
In the final analysis, in the five spirits power struggle, there was only one winner. Now that Golden City has gradually fallen into a quagmire and has shown signs of decline, the other several parties of the alliance would naturally inevitably shift their energy away from Golden City. Including himself, wasn't the reason why he was willing to spend time to train Shaman in order to contend against Wang Lu?
If at this time, Wang Lu told this news to A Ye, then … the consequences would be hard to predict. At least, in the handbook compiled by the sect elders, there was no record of how to deal with it.
While he was thinking, suddenly, Shaman behind him exclaimed, "My God!"
"What's wrong?"
"Just now, when Wang Lu walked all the way to my door, I didn't hear any report. I originally thought that because he was holding the token, no one stopped him, but just now …" Shaman said and then felt that her throat was somewhat dry. "Just now, when he left, I suddenly received an alarm from the Nightingale Sentinel, saying that someone without the token left the Eternal Tree and asked me how to deal with it."
Zhan Ziye gawked for a moment, and then said in surprise, "You mean, just now, he didn't hold the token, but sneaked all the way here?"
"... Indeed." Shaman sank her voice and said, "It's really an impressive lesson."
While speaking, her face became more and more gloomy, because the Eternal Tree, which she thought was impregnable, had been proven to be full of flaws. If Shengjing Sect people came back … she would not be safe at all.
Zhan Ziye's face was also very unsightly.
Wang Lu's defensive ability was amazing, which was already a well-known fact. At present, among the cultivators of the same generation, except for Qiong Hua and a few others, no one had the confidence to break his sword defense. Even his thunder body was not enough. However, he had never heard that he had any specialty in other spells. He was just an ordinary inner court disciple, which was not outstanding at all. And now, it seemed that he had amazing attainments in stealth and concealment!
Moreover, this was not the crux of the problem. What was the use of Wang Lu, a cultivator who was good at defense, to learn stealth and concealment? It was completely incompatible! Therefore, from a rational point of view, it could only be explained that the overall level of Wang Lu's spell attainment was far above the assessment!
"Damn it, just how strong is that guy going to become …"
And if she wanted to fight against the increasingly stronger Wang Lu, relying on herself alone was probably not enough. And in this world, the one who could help her...
Zhan Ziye turned to Shaman. His blazing eyes made the woman tremble.

"Next … there's nothing to do here, it's time to leave."
After leaving the Eternal Tree, Wang Lu greeted Lan, who had been waiting for a long time, and the two walked side by side.
Lan somewhat strangely looked at Wang Lu. "You came all the way here just to throw the Eternal Tree token that was given to you by Sacred Leaf there?"
Wang Lu said, "Anyway, I won't need it in the future, so I'll just return it to its original owner … Moreover, the tracking and positioning spell hidden on the token makes me very uncomfortable."
"Oh." After listening to the explanation, the girl nodded and no longer asked.
"By the way, I also want to see what those two people have been doing during this time. Although Zhan Ziye is not the strongest and his worldly wisdom is also passable, his academic and research ability is unparalleled among his peers. With the Eternal Tree's heritage and Zhan Ziye's wisdom, the Lord of Wood Spirit will make a leap and become an unprecedentedly strong enemy. "
Lan asked, "So, isn't it very dangerous?"
Seeing Wang Lu somewhat curiously looking at her, Lan said, "They are the enemy. When the enemy becomes stronger, of course it's dangerous."
For the lord of the Grey Mountain, everything in the world seemed to be simple and easy to divide. She ate and drank well in A Ye's house and was warmly entertained by the husband and wife, but when she turned around, the enemy was still the enemy.
However, this kind of temperament was actually to Wang Lu's liking. For a professional like him, a sentimental apologist was the real trouble.
"It's indeed very dangerous, so I deliberately came to take a look. However, after seeing it, I have nothing to worry about. In some aspects, this master and follower pair are naive and cute. There's no need for me to make a move. When the time comes, they will collapse without a fight. "
"Oh."
"The key problem now is Flaming Valley. How long can this barbarian kingdom, which has diverted more than eighty percent of Golden City's energy, persist?"
While speaking, Wang Lu revealed a dignified look.
The real key to this five spirits power struggle was still Flaming Valley. Were it not for Flaming Valley falling into Zhan Ziye's trick of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf and rashly starting a war with Golden City, how could the other three sects have this leisurely peace?
However, the strength of Flaming Valley was, after all, far inferior to Golden City. Under this kind of all-out attack, how long could they persist? How long could the sandpiper and clam fight last?

"Right now, everyone is probably calculating when we will fall."
North of Harmony River, above the barren scorched land, there was a towering mountain. Although it was not as indomitable as the Eternal Tree, its summit was still high in the clouds. In this mountain, there was a fire that would not go out for thousands of years. Legend has it that the ancient gods fell here, and their anger would never be extinguished.
On the summit, a red creature was bathed in lava. That creature had a rough human shape, but there were bone spurs on its joints, and its fangs were turned outwards. Its ferocious appearance was like that of a ferocious beast. The boiling lava that could melt everything was like warm water to him, soaking in it as if it was malt syrup.
"I don't know how long Golden City has been the overlord of this world, so long that everyone is accustomed to it. Without thinking, they think that they are invincible. No one dares to challenge their throne. They even sneer at other challengers. However, they don't know that things change, and nothing is eternal. "
As he spoke, the burly man propped himself up with his hands and stood up in the lava, revealing his bare skin that was as red as flames. Lava flowed down his chest, further accentuating his sturdy and indestructible figure.
"Let the people of this world see the real power of Flaming Valley. My follower, you will be the commander in chief of the decisive battle army. All of my warriors will be under your command. Don't let me down. "
"Yes!"
Next to the lava pool, a teenager with short black hair responded with a serious look and a straight posture. On his left cheek, there was a cross scar, which added a bit of vicissitudes to his still immature face. And that pair of eyes that only a warrior could have flashed with a palpitating light.
