After Lu Xuan's guidance, Tian Xin didn't have the mood to linger. Instead, she urged Lu Xuan to hurry up so that she could experience the Hundred Flowers City.
After walking for a while, Lu Xuan looked at the map and said, "There is a forest in front. According to the map, after passing through this forest, we will reach the Hundred Flowers City."
"Then let's barge through. It is just a small hill." Tian Xin said without a care. Compared to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, this forest was indeed just a small hill.
Lu Xuan nodded. In this forest, there might not even be any Demonic King Realm existences. The two of them naturally didn't have to worry.
As they traversed through the forest, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Lu Xuan emitted a trace of qi presence. Feeling the qi presence of an Origin Realm expert, those demonic beasts didn't even dare to show their heads. Even when Lu Xuan and Tian Xin flew over their territory, they couldn't help but be frightened, afraid that these two powerful human experts were here to attack them. However, they thought too highly of themselves. Even a tier-10 demonic beast was useless against Lu Xuan.
Seeing that they had already passed through half of the forest, Lu Xuan's ears suddenly twitched. He seemed to have heard a human's cry.
"Brother Tian, wait a moment. It seems like someone is calling for help." Lu Xuan pulled Tian Xin and said.
Tian Xin was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "Then let's go. It's just a matter of convenience. Isn't it fun to help others?"
Lu Xuan laughed. This was what he said to Tian Xin previously. Now, Tian Xin had learned it and used it.
Lu Xuan immediately flew towards the direction of the sound. As he got closer, the sound became clearer. It seemed like there was more than one person. Lu Xuan's speed was extremely fast. In an instant, he arrived at the source of the cry for help.
A man and a woman were standing on a large rock, leaning close to each other. They held weapons in their hands as they continuously attacked the wolves that were charging at them. They had provoked a wolf pack, so they were in a very difficult situation and were in imminent danger.
Seeing this, Tian Xin didn't even have the intention to help. It was just a group of rank 4 Greenwood Wolves, he could kill them with a single yawn.
The man and woman saw Lu Xuan and Tian Xin's arrival. The man was instantly overjoyed and said, "Friends, I hope you can help us. This Peng will be very grateful!"
The woman was rather kind-hearted and kindly reminded them, "These Greenwood Wolves are rank 4 demonic beasts. Be careful."
The man looked at the woman with dissatisfaction, as if blaming her for warning the two of them. With such a large pack of Level 4 Greenwood Wolves, if the two of them didn't dare to attack, wouldn't they die without a doubt?
Lu Xuan, on the other hand, didn't think too much about it. He casually strode forward, his energy surging. He, too, couldn't be bothered to do anything; he just wanted to scare off the Greenwood Wolves.
Unexpectedly, this pack of Greenwood Wolves was extremely ferocious. Relying on their superior numbers, they paid no heed to Lu Xuan's aura. In an instant, five or six Greenwood Wolves charged at Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan shook his head helplessly. "Don't blame me if you have a death wish."
He immediately stretched out his right hand and slapped a Greenwood Wolf that was pouncing at him. Although it was just a casual slap, Lu Xuan's current strength was so great that the Greenwood Wolf howled and immediately fell to the ground, dead.
His casual gesture caused the man and woman to be stunned. To them, these rank 4 Greenwood Wolves were like the gods of death. But to Lu Xuan, they were like flies, unable to withstand a single blow.
His nonchalant gesture of waving his hand stunned the man and woman. To them, the level 4 Greenwood Wolf was like a god of death, but to Lu Xuan, it was like a fly that couldn't even withstand a single blow.
After killing those Greenwood Wolves, the other wolves surrounding the man and woman couldn't help but be attracted by the smell of blood. Finally, fear began to fill their hearts. However, they continued to howl, and didn't seem to have any intention of fleeing. Meng Hao's expression flickered.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but frown. What was wrong with these Greenwood Wolves? Why were they so fearless? Did they really want him to kill them all? Just as Lu Xuan was about to kill them all, a loud wolf howl came from afar. As if they had received an order, the pack of Greenwood Wolves began to slowly retreat, finally disappearing completely.
"I am Peng Xin. Many thanks to Senior for saving my life," the woman said gratefully.
"I am Peng Ying. Many thanks to Senior for your help." The man cupped his hands in greeting. He was intimidated by the strength Lu Xuan had just displayed, so he didn't dare to be impudent.
Lu Xuan waved his hand. "I'm not much older than you two, so there's no need to call me Senior. Just call me Lu Xuan."
After a pause, Lu Xuan asked curiously, "You two are at the third and fourth level of the Spirit Refinement Realm. Why do you dare to walk through this forest?"
To Lu Xuan and Tian Xin, the forest posed no threat at all. But with their strength, it was a very dangerous place.
Peng Ying said, "In a few days, the Peony Palace will be recruiting new disciples. My cousin wants to join the Peony Palace and was worried that she would miss the time. That's why we chose to walk through this forest. We've walked through this forest before and we've never made any mistakes. I don't know why, but this time, the wolves seemed to have gone crazy. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid my cousin and I would've died."
Peng Xin looked at Peng Ying with dissatisfaction and said, "If it weren't for you wanting to kill that Greenwood Wolf and take its materials, why would a group of wolves come here?"
Hearing this, Peng Ying smiled and didn't say anything more. Lu Xuan suddenly realized that it was all because of greed. This Peng Ying was really too much. He should be thanking the heavens and the earth for being able to walk through this forest safely, yet he still dared to hunt beasts.
"Young Hero Lu, there's still a long way to go before we can leave the forest. I wonder if Young Hero Lu can take us along?" Peng Xin asked expectantly. She had just seen how Lu Xuan killed the Greenwood Wolf as easily as he killed a chicken. If they had Lu Xuan's protection, then they wouldn't have any problems leaving the forest safely.
Lu Xuan thought about it. Since he had just arrived, it would be a good time to ask these two about some things. So he nodded and agreed. Peng Xin was naturally very excited. However, when Peng Ying saw his cousin's expression and looked at Lu Xuan's young and handsome face, he couldn't help but have some other thoughts in his heart. He didn't seem very happy.
"Brother Lu, you're so strong. I wonder which Sect are you from?" Peng Ying asked tentatively. He wanted to find out more about Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan laughed, "Me? Oh, I'm just a Wandering Cultivator. "
"Oh, it's enough for a Wandering Cultivator to reach Brother Lu's level of strength." Peng Ying's words gradually revealed a trace of perfunctory. Without the support of a Sect, how strong could a Wandering Cultivator be? If Lu Xuan came from a large Sect, then it would be worth it for him to curry favor with him. However, he had already dispelled this thought.
Tian Xin was familiar with the ways of the world. She knew what Peng Ying was thinking when she saw his expression. She couldn't help but secretly blame herself for not recognizing Mount Tai. Putting aside Lu Xuan's true identity, just his position in the Nine Dragons Empire was not something that someone like Peng Ying could reach. However, seeing that Lu Xuan didn't really care, she couldn't be bothered to say anything.
"You said that the Peony Palace is recruiting disciples?" Lu Xuan asked.
"That's right. My cousin's strength and age both meet the requirements. I think there's no problem for her to enter the Peony Palace this time. At that time, her cultivation path will soar." Peng Ying said proudly. Although there were many Clans and Sects in the Peony Palace's territory, those who could enter the Peony Palace were undoubtedly above them.
Tian Xin couldn't help but ask, "Your cousin is here to participate in the entrance examination. What are you here for?"
Peng Ying frowned when he saw Tian Xin talking to him. "My cousin and I are already engaged. I naturally have to pave the way for her. My third uncle is the head butler of the He Clan in Hundred Flowers City. He even has connections in the Peony Palace. With my third uncle's help, there's no need to worry about not accomplishing anything!"
Then, he patted Lu Xuan's shoulder and said, "Brother Lu, this servant of yours doesn't have much discipline. How can he interrupt when we're talking? Let me tell you, Large Clans value etiquette very much. You have to discipline him properly in the future. It's just that I don't mind if you meet him. "
Hearing this, Tian Xin was about to explode from anger. She pointed at herself and said word by word, "Me? Servant? Not disciplined? "
He was an expert at the eighth level of the Origin Realm. If he was placed in the Nine Dragons Empire, he would be a formidable great general. A trash like Peng Ying wasn't even fit to serve him water to wash his feet. How dare he lecture him now?
Lu Xuan was laughing so hard that his stomach was hurting. Seeing that Tian Xin was about to teach Peng Ying a lesson, Lu Xuan quickly pulled him back and said, "Brother Tian, forget it. Don't lower yourself to the level of a child."
Tian Xin snorted and flicked his sleeves. He didn't want to look at Peng Ying anymore. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself and beat Peng Ying up. He might not be as handsome as Lu Xuan, but he shouldn't be treated as a servant, right?
"This isn't my servant. He is my brother. His strength isn't inferior to mine." Lu Xuan explained.
Peng Ying was slightly enlightened, "Then this brother of yours looks like he grew up a bit too fast. He looks like he is at least ten years older than Brother Lu."
Tian Xin almost couldn't control himself and wanted to beat Peng Ying up again. Fortunately, Peng Ying had already changed the topic, "Brother Lu, thank you for your help this time. I, Peng Nobody, am a person who values reciprocity. My Third Uncle is the housekeeper of the He Clan. When we reach the Hundred Flowers City, I will definitely ask my Third Uncle to give you a good job. Heh, the He Clan's Patriarch is an existence of the Origin Realm. He can probably squash us to death with a single finger. He even married an elder of the Peony Palace and is considered a tyrant in the Hundred Flowers City."
Seeing that Peng Ying was being so kind, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel 'overwhelmed'. He smiled and cupped his hands, "Then I shall thank Brother Peng in advance."
Peng Ying generously waved his hand, "You and I are friends who have gone through life and death together. This is nothing. But ….. I can't go and ask my Third Uncle to do something for me empty-handed. I am afraid Brother Lu will have to be more generous with the expenses. "
"Cousin, didn't you say that your Third Uncle treats you very well? Do you still need to pay for such a small matter? "Peng Xin couldn't help but ask.
Peng Ying was so angry that he wanted to hit someone. This woman, why can't she be sensible? I just want to fish for some primeval stones. Could it be that you have fallen for this gigolo?
He spoke with some impatience, "I naturally don't need to pay for Third Uncle. But Third Uncle still has to pay for other people, right? I can't possibly let him spend so much money. "
Lu Xuan held back his laughter and waved his hand, "Thank you for Brother Peng's concern. I don't have anything on me. I really can't afford to pay for this."
Seeing that Lu Xuan wasn't willing to pay a single cent, Peng Ying felt bored and casually said, "Since Brother Lu doesn't want this great opportunity, then forget it. I can also save myself the trouble of talking to Third Uncle."
