Only when he really walked out of Hundred Flowers City did he realize how terrifying this beast tide was. Along the way, Lu Xuan saw groups of beasts marching towards the human towns.
From time to time, the corpses of warriors could be seen in the wild. When the beast tide occurred, they were not in the towns and could not get the protection of the strong. In the face of such a powerful beast tide, they had no power to resist.
At this moment, Lu Xuan wished he could split himself into tens of thousands of clones and go everywhere to help, but he was only one person after all. He could only do his best to save as many people as possible. He believed that Hundred Flowers City and Peony Palace must have sent out reinforcements to help the major cities repel the beast tide like him.
Sometimes, Lu Xuan flew over some villages and small towns and saw the devastation and corpses everywhere. He couldn't help but think of his home in Lin City.
Lin City was only a small city, and it didn't even have a warrior in the late stage of the Spirit Refinement Realm. If the beast tide not only occurred in the territory of the Peony Palace, but also in the territory of the Profound Ice Pavilion, would Lin City be like these small towns below?
"I hope Lin City is fine …" Lu Xuan silently looked ahead and thought.
"Master, what are you thinking about?" Qin Yueyi saw Lu Xuan in a daze and couldn't help but ask curiously.
Lu Xuan came back to his senses and said with a smile, "I'm thinking about my distant home. The place where I was born is also a small town, but it is only a small town in the secular world. It can't compare to your Nan Luo Town. The most powerful family in the town is only at the sixth or seventh level of Body Refinement Realm. I don't know if there was a beast tide there."
Qin Yueyi was slightly surprised. She had seen Lu Xuan's strength at such a young age, and thought that he was a genius that the Profound Ice Pavilion had nurtured since he was young. She had never expected that he would also be born into poverty, and that he was even inferior to her. Nanluo Town, where she lived, was a small town in the world of cultivators, but Lu Xuan was from the secular world.
To be able to achieve such strength at such a young age as a commoner in the secular world, one could only imagine how much Lu Xuan had experienced. Qin Yueyi couldn't help but secretly make up her mind. Her starting point was much higher than her master's, so she must also cultivate hard so that she wouldn't let down her master's kindness.
"Don't worry, Master. The Profound Ice Pavilion is so far away from Hundred Flowers City. There definitely won't be a beast tide," Qin Yueyi comforted.
Lu Xuan nodded. He could only hope that was the case. He immediately said, "There's still some distance to Xinba County. I'll teach you a set of martial arts techniques. Later, you can use those demonic beasts to practice this set of martial arts techniques."
With that, Lu Xuan pointed a finger at Qin Yueyi's forehead, and a Martial Skill cultivation method was forcefully imparted into Qin Yueyi's mind. With the strength of his current Spiritual Strength, he was naturally able to do this easily.
The first set of martial arts techniques that Lu Xuan taught Qin Yueyi wasn't a Yellow Rank martial art technique, but a Profound Rank martial art technique — Startling Cloud Sword Technique! Not only did he teach Qin Yueyi the cultivation method of the Startling Cloud Sword Technique, but he also taught her his comprehension of this sword technique and his demonstration of the moves.
This was the benefit of having a master. Thinking back, in order to practice the Startling Cloud Sword Technique, Lu Xuan had spent a lot of effort. It was only when Zhao Bing-er was brought back to the Profound Ice Pavilion by Nangong Shuo that Lu Xuan used his sword in anger that he comprehended the profoundness of the Startling Cloud Sword Technique.
"You must cultivate this sword technique properly. Although there are only three moves — Startling Wind, Startling Thunder, and Startling Cloud — each move is quite exquisite and contains different principles of the Way of the Sword. It will be of great help to you in comprehending sword intent and even the Way of the Sword," Lu Xuan warned.
After Qin Yueyi silently felt the power of the Startling Cloud Sword Technique, she was immediately overjoyed. Especially the power that Lu Xuan displayed when he demonstrated it, it made her even more fascinated.
"Thank you, Master. Your disciple will not let you down." Qin Yueyi respectfully said. Not only did Lu Xuan save her, but he also taught her such a powerful martial technique. Her gratitude towards Lu Xuan was incomparably deep.
Lu Xuan smiled faintly. "Train well. You're the first disciple under my tutelage, so of course, you'll get your share of the good stuff. If you perform well enough, I'll teach you a set of unparalleled techniques. Whether or not you can get your hands on it is up to you."
A supreme martial technique? Could it be a martial technique that Master himself practiced? Qin Yueyi silently thought to herself. Her heart was even more determined. Even if it wasn't for the martial technique, just to not disappoint her master, she would do her best.
She immediately sat down cross-legged and began to familiarize herself with the circulation method of the Startling Cloud Sword Technique. At the same time, she absorbed the understanding of this martial technique that Lu Xuan had taught her. Only by mastering the basics would she be able to practice it in actual combat.
This time, the Beast Tide affected a very large area. For three consecutive days, Lu Xuan constantly rushed from city to city in the Peony Palace's territory. He himself had lost count of the number of Daemon King Realm Great Beasts that had died at his hands. This time, it was as if all the Daemon King Realm Great Beasts that usually hid deep in the mountains had all come out of their nests. As long as it was a large city, it would be attacked by Daemon King Realm Great Beasts. If it was a strong city like West Han City or Heyu City, it would be attacked by more than one or two Great Beasts.
And this also caused Lu Xuan's name to suddenly resound throughout the entire Peony Palace's territory. Many martial artists clearly knew that a direct disciple from the Profound Ice Pavilion was extremely powerful. As long as he appeared, he would be able to guarantee the safety of an area. Although there was only one person, it was enough to repel all the invading Demonic Beasts.
And this person's great reputation inevitably aroused the curiosity of some people. Very soon, someone inquired about Lu Xuan's achievements. It turned out that he had obtained the sensational inheritance of the Ancient Era. Moreover, it was said that the recent loss of two Great Elders of the Profound Ice Pavilion was related to Lu Xuan.
However, the most interesting thing was that it was said that Lu Xuan had many female confidantes. It was said that Zhao Binger, one of Profound Ice Pavilion's famous Pride of the North and South, was his dao companion. Moreover, it was said that even the Peony Palace's Chief Disciple, another Pride of the North and South, Ruo Xiangyi, had been taken into Lu Xuan's harem.
Simultaneously occupying the Pride of the North and South, two great beauties, made the martial artists feel both envious and helpless. With this strength, he could naturally occupy all the beauties in the world. However, recently, Qin Yueyi, who had frequently appeared with Lu Xuan, also entered their line of sight.
Some people said that Qin Yueyi was Lu Xuan's disciple, and some people said that Qin Yueyi was Lu Xuan's new favorite. However, most people were inclined towards the latter. How old was Lu Xuan? How could he accept a disciple? Moreover, young people were full of vigor and vigor. Coupled with their formidable strength, it was normal for them to like beauties.
This aroused a cultivation frenzy among these martial artists. The inspiring example of Lu Xuan was placed in front of them. Want to obtain the hearts of many beauties? Then you better show me your strength!
Lu Xuan was busy running around, so he didn't know about these rumors. After three days, he had practically run through half of the Earth Steps of the Peony Palace. He didn't have any time to rest during these three days. The only time he had to rest was when he was on the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat to recover his essence force.
The actions of Hundred Flowers City and the Peony Palace weren't slow either. Some of the big cities had teleportation arrays. The distant cities directly teleported their powerhouses to provide emergency assistance, while the nearby cities sent a large number of ordinary martial artists to provide assistance.
When Lu Xuan arrived at Qi City, which was extremely far from Hundred Flowers City, he discovered that the beast tide had already been pacified. The city was counting the casualties.
Just as Lu Xuan was about to leave, he heard a familiar voice, "Lu Xuan."
Standing on the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat and looking into the distance, Lu Xuan actually saw Ruo Xiangyi. He didn't expect her to be here. Seeing the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat, Ruo Xiangyi naturally knew that it was Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan immediately dispelled the thought of leaving and prepared to find Ruo Xiangyi to ask about the situation. He wanted to see if there were any places that needed assistance, so that he wouldn't run around in vain again.
Putting away the Gentle Wind Spirit Boat, Lu Xuan flew to Ruo Xiangyi with Qin Yueyi and asked, "Xiangyi, what's the situation now?"
Ruo Xiangyi didn't rush to answer. Instead, she gave Qin Yueyi a meaningful look, then looked at Lu Xuan and said in a sour tone, "Could this be Young Hero Lu's new sweetheart that has been rumored recently? She really is a beauty that can captivate even the birds and obscure the moon. "
Lu Xuan couldn't help but be slightly stunned. What new sweetheart?
As a woman, Qin Yueyi naturally understood women very well. When she heard Ruo Xiangyi's words, she knew that she was jealous and hurriedly replied, "Martial Aunt Ruo misunderstood, I am Master's new disciple, not some new sweetheart."
When she said the last two words, Qin Yueyi couldn't help but feel a little hot.
Ruo Xiangyi immediately chuckled and said, "I know, I'm just teasing Lu Xuan."
As the person in charge of the entrance selection back then, even though she had given full authority to Lu Xuan back then and headed to the place where the outer sect disciples were to be tested after she found out that Liu Yun was dead, she naturally understood the ins and outs of the matter. That being said, based on her understanding of Lu Xuan, Qin Yueyi was indeed only a disciple at the moment. However, it was hard to say what would happen in the future. It had to be said that Qin Yueyi's appearance had given her a sense of urgency.
"Since you are Lu Xuan's disciple and call me Martial Aunt, then I naturally can't miss out on a greeting gift." Ruo Xiangyi looked at Qin Yueyi and said, then took out a beautiful long sword and handed it to Qin Yueyi, saying, "This long sword is called the Autumn Water Sword, a low-grade Earth-step treasure. It was the weapon I used in the past, so I will give it to you now."
When she heard the grade of the Autumn Water Sword, Qin Yueyi was shocked. An Earth-step treasure! She used to use a low-grade Human-step treasure, she couldn't even afford a mid-grade Human-step treasure. But now, it had suddenly increased by several grades.
She hurriedly refused, saying, "I appreciate Martial Aunt's kindness, but this weapon is too precious, I really can't accept it."
Ruo Xiangyi gently smiled and said, "Why can't you say it? Just consider it as returning a favor to your Master. In the past, he gave me a high-grade Earth-step sword."
Ruo Xiangyi's words sounded quite normal, but why did Lu Xuan feel like she was showing off?
