The Alliance Leader's Residence was peaceful as usual, completely different from the bloodbath in the Castellan's Residence. Obviously, this place wasn't affected by the war.
As the most heavily guarded place in the Jiuhua Alliance, the Alliance Leader's Residence wasn't a place anyone could barge in. There were countless powerful arrays and hidden guards. Other than Ye Wuheng, no one could mobilize the guards in the Alliance Leader's Residence. Even when the Castellan's Residence was in chaos, none of the guards in the Alliance Leader's Residence went to help.
Obviously, Ye Hao knew the severity of the situation and didn't even think about attacking the Alliance Leader's Residence. He just wanted to take over the Castellan's Residence and control Jiuhua City.
Lu Xuan pushed open the tightly shut doors of the Alliance Leader's Residence and saw everyone waiting in the courtyard. His sister, Lu Qiong, his disciple, Qin Yueyi, Lin Tian, and some other good friends were all here.
The moment the door was pushed open, everyone was shocked at first, but then a hint of surprise appeared on their faces. Lu Qiong quickly stepped forward, grabbed Lu Xuan's hand, and looked him up and down. Only then did she let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Little Xuan, you're finally back. I was so worried about you all this time."
Lu Xuan smiled and patted Lu Qiong's shoulder. "Don't worry, Sister. I'm a lucky man. How could anything happen to me? How about you guys? Are you all alright?"
"Jiuhua City was in chaos just now, and I didn't see you guys return. I was so worried. Lin Tian and the others wanted to go out and help, but I stopped them. Look at you guys … Is everything settled outside?"
"Yes, it's fine now. Father stayed there to settle the funeral. Let's go in first. Second Uncle was severely injured. Even though I managed to alleviate some of his pain, he still needs treatment."
Lu Qiong quickly stepped aside to let Ye Wenyan and the others in. When Lu Xuan walked past Lin Tian, he pointed at him with a smile and said, "You're quite something, kid. You dared to go out and help."
Lin Tian hugged his long sword and pouted. "That's because your sister didn't let me. Otherwise, I would have killed many enemies."
"With your second level Origin Realm strength?" Lu Xuan smiled and shook his head.
"Lu Xuan, I don't like what you're saying." Xia Ye interrupted from the side, "So what if we are at the second level of the Origin Realm? We might not be able to compete with you, but we are still considered not bad among the younger generation. Right, Lin Tian?"
"Who told you to call me Lu Xuan?" Lu Xuan glanced at Xia Chenxi's silhouette and said in a low voice, "You have to call me brother-in-law!"
"Come on, let's talk about our own." Natsuya curled her lips and said, "Come to think of it, you're even younger than me, yet you're asking me to call you brother-in-law. Aren't you ashamed?"
Lu Xuan shrugged his shoulders and expressed his helplessness. The few of them were considered brothers that Lu Xuan had known ever since he stepped into the martial arts world. Naturally, they would have many quarrels in private. Lu Xuan loved to use the title of brother-in-law to pressure others, but Xia Ye refused to call him that even if he beat her to death.
Pausing for a moment, Lu Xuan took a deep breath and spoke in a serious tone, "I wasn't joking with you guys just now. Your strength is indeed not bad among the younger generation, but the enemies you are facing aren't your peers. Don't even mention that you guys are only at the second level of the Origin Realm. Even if you are at the second level of the Great Void Realm, in front of a true expert, it would only take a single move."
Lin Tian could tell that there was something wrong with Lu Xuan's tone, so he asked, "What's going on? Did something happen? I saw that City Lord Ye was severely injured. Could it be that the Eight Directional Sacred Palace is here? "
Lu Xuan shook his head, "No, the Eight Directional Sacred Palace doesn't have the guts to do that. It's the Soul Race."
"Soul Race?" Lin Tian and the others exclaimed at the same time, "Wasn't the Soul Race annihilated?"
"No, there's still a fish that escaped the net, and it's the biggest fish. It's the leader of the Soul Race in the Lower Realm ten thousand years ago, an existence close to the Soul Sage level."
Hearing Lu Xuan's words, Lin Tian and Lin Tian couldn't help but look at each other and suck in a breath of cold air. In their imagination, a Soul Sage was a powerful existence that was extremely far away from them. They didn't think that they would be in Jiuhua City at the same time. With their strength, a Soul Sage would probably only need to blow a breath to kill them.
Seeing that they realized the gravity of the situation, Lu Xuan didn't say anything else. He patted Lin Tian's shoulder and said, "Don't run around during this time. Just stay in Jiuhua City and cultivate. If there's any battle in the future, don't participate unless it's absolutely necessary. You won't be able to help at all. If the sky falls down, let the tall ones hold it for you."
After saying this, Lu Xuan left. Ye Haoran's injuries weren't too serious, but his soul was damaged. Although Ye Wenyan and the others were strong, they wouldn't be able to heal Ye Haoran as easily as Lu Xuan.
Xia Ye couldn't help but gulp as she watched Lu Xuan leave. "Lu Xuan just came back from that side. Did he already fight with that Soul Sage?"
"I think it's possible." Lin Tian nodded.
"Tsk, tsk. I didn't think that the gap between us and him would grow bigger and bigger. I really don't know how strong he is right now." Xia Ye couldn't help but sigh. They only knew that Lu Xuan was very strong, but they didn't know exactly how strong he was.
"To be able to enter deep into the Sikong family's territory and cause a commotion that shook the entire Heavenly Sword Continent, how could an ordinary person be able to do that? In any case, I, Lin Tian, will only admire him in this lifetime."
Lu Xuan walked into the mansion. He asked around and found out that Ye Wenyan and the others had already brought Ye Haoran into the inner chamber. He didn't stop walking and directly walked into the inner chamber.
Seeing Lu Xuan enter, Ye Wenyan waved at him and said, "Xuan 'er, you've come at the right time. You're quite skilled in the Dao of Souls. I might have to trouble you to treat your second uncle's injuries."
"There's no trouble at all. Whether it's for business or personal reasons, I'm duty-bound to save my second uncle." As he spoke, Ye Wenyan stepped aside. Lu Xuan sat by Ye Haoran's bedside and reached out to feel his pulse.
Because of the urgency of the situation, Lu Xuan didn't have time to carefully investigate. Now that he knew that Saul was behind all this, Lu Xuan didn't dare be negligent.
Lu Xuan closed his eyes and slowly felt Ye Haoran's pulse. Then, he placed his hand on Ye Haoran's forehead and carefully felt the state of Ye Haoran's soul. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Fortunately, the worst-case scenario didn't happen. Fortunately, it was only Ye Hao who attacked second uncle, and not Saul himself. Although second uncle's soul was injured, it didn't cause irreparable damage."
"That's good." Ye Wenyan stroked his beard and nodded lightly. "If you need any treatment, just say the word. The Jiuhua Alliance has all kinds of medicinal ingredients in stock."
"Second uncle only lost a portion of his soul power, and his soul is weak. That's why he's unconscious. The fastest way to cure him is for me to return a portion of my soul power to him, but this method is too forceful. I'm worried that second uncle won't be able to withstand it, so it's better to play it safe. I'll use my soul power to nourish second uncle's soul every day, and with some calming and calming medicine, he'll be able to recover on his own. "
"Then we'll do as you say. Now that Wuhen is back, there won't be any trouble in Jiuhua City with him around. Let Haoran rest."
Lu Xuan nodded. "I'll write a prescription first, and then tell someone to brew the medicine."
Actually, Ye Haoran's condition wasn't too serious. It didn't matter whether the medicine was used or not, but Lu Xuan knew that the elders were worried. Prescribing some medicine would make them feel more at ease. After all, these were all supplements, and there were no downsides.
