"Young Hero, ever since the first wave of beasts, there have been more after that. Fortunately, Hundred Flowers City came to the rescue in time. With the help of the Jiuhua Alliance's experts, Anyuan City didn't suffer too much damage. Later, when the beasts saw that An Yuan City could not be conquered, they began to attack the surrounding towns, so … "At this point, the guard shook his head and continued," Although An Yuan City did not suffer too much damage, many towns on the border were almost completely massacred. "
Lu Xuan sighed and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Everything will get better. The monster tide should have retreated by now, right?"
"I'm not too sure about that, but An Yuan City has not been attacked for many days. The experts stationed in An Yuan City have also returned to Hundred Flowers City, so it should be fine."
Lu Xuan nodded lightly. Bu Nuo's main soul had been destroyed by him. Even if there was still a soul bead outside, the soul strands inside should have been destroyed.
Immediately, Lu Xuan asked him to open the teleportation array and send him back to Hundred Flowers City. Generally, opening the teleportation array required the city lord's order, but Shen Rong had specially instructed that once Lu Xuan returned, the teleportation array could be directly opened.
Through the teleportation array, Lu Xuan quickly arrived at Hundred Flowers City. At this moment, the city was not as lively as before. Perhaps it was because the beasts had retreated, many cultivators did not want to stay in Hundred Flowers City anymore. Instead, they returned to their hometown and rebuilt their homes.
After a slight hesitation, Lu Xuan decided to make a trip to the city lord's mansion to see what the situation was.
When he arrived at the City Lord's Residence, Lu Xuan found many people sitting in the lobby. They seemed to be discussing something. He could not help but feel curious. Could it be that the damp was not over yet? It was impossible. Even Buno had been killed by him.
Seeing Lu Xuan enter, Zhao Ying was the first to stand up. She smiled and said, "Lu Xuan, you're finally back. You've been gone for more than a month. Bing 'er and the others have been worried."
Shen Rong also stood up and said with a smile, "Lu Xuan, you came at the right time. You have a lot of means, so you might be of help. It's a pity that you weren't here. Otherwise, you might have been able to further reduce the impact of the beasts."
Unexpectedly, the head of the Wu family, Wu Chang, muttered in a relaxed manner, "He didn't come earlier or later. He just had to come back as soon as the beasts ended. I wonder if he really went to train. He must have found a place to hide."
His Wu Clan had also suffered heavy losses in the beast tide. Furthermore, he was still thinking about how Zhao Ying had ruthlessly slapped him in the face last time. Naturally, he was a little unhappy. However, although his voice was soft, everyone present was an expert. They immediately heard his words clearly.
Zhao Ying couldn't help but frown and look at Wu Chang. A mere Wu family really dared to go against the heavens!
She was about to lose her temper, but Lu Xuan stood in front of her. He looked at Wu Chang and said calmly, "Wu family head, do you think that I, Lu Xuan, have done nothing?"
Seeing that Lu Xuan was pressing him, Wu Chang steeled his heart. Since he had already offended Lu Xuan and Zhao Ying, the Wu family's future days might not be easy. He raised his head and said, "My Wu family may be small, but we have killed countless demonic beasts and several Daemon Kings during the beasts. I wonder how Young Hero Lu has helped us this time?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud thud. It was Lu Xuan slamming several demonic cores on the table. Everyone could not help but look over.
Wu Chang glanced at them and snorted. "A few demonic cores are nothing. I heard that Young Hero Lu has killed a Daemon Emperor in An Yuan City, but you only killed a few Daemon Kings with your strength. Haha …"
Hearing this, He Xuesong, the He family head sitting next to him, couldn't help but snicker. The He family and the Wu family had never been on good terms. He naturally wouldn't miss such a good opportunity to attack the Wu family. He then coughed twice and "kindly" reminded Lu Xuan, "If I'm not mistaken, the demonic cores that Young Hero Lu has taken out should be the demonic cores of demonic beasts in the Daemon Emperor Realm."
Wu Chang was startled when he heard this, and he took a closer look. Sure enough, although these Beast Cores seemed to be no different from ordinary Beast Cores, when he looked closely, he noticed that there were some extremely mysterious patterns condensed on these Beast Cores.
For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on, and his face was full of embarrassment. He didn't expect Lu Xuan to take out so many demonic cores of Daemon Emperors at once. If he hadn't killed a Daemon Emperor, where would he have gotten these demonic cores from? This undoubtedly proved that within the past month, Lu Xuan had killed no less than five or six Daemon Emperors by himself.
His Wu family had only killed a few Daemon Kings. How dare he show off in front of Lu Xuan? Wouldn't that make him a laughing stock?
"Although I'm not talented, I also killed eight Daemon Emperors who participated in the Beast Tide in the Innumerable Huge Mountains and defeated nearly 200,000 demonic beasts. I wonder if Clan Head Wu thinks that my contribution is comparable to that of the Wu family?" Lu Xuan snorted coldly.
For a moment, Wu Chang was speechless. He didn't expect Lu Xuan to have such strength. He ventured alone into the incomparably dangerous Innumerable Huge Mountains and killed so many Daemon Emperors in the face of such a powerful Beast Tide. How terrifying must his strength be to achieve such a feat?
It wasn't that the experts of the Jiuehua Alliance didn't think of venturing into the mountains to kill the Daemon Emperors and cut off the source of the Beast Tide. However, even a Seventh-Tier Grand Void Realm expert like Long Boming didn't dare to face the Beast Tide head-on. They could only passively defend themselves. They didn't expect Lu Xuan to accomplish something that even the Grand Void Realm experts of the Jiuehua Alliance couldn't.
"Young Hero Lu's strength is astonishing, and your courage is even more outstanding. I truly admire you. On behalf of countless cultivators who have benefited from your actions, I thank you, Young Hero Lu." He Xuesong obviously knew how to conduct himself better than Wu Chang. He was the first to stand up and support Lu Xuan. He had long wanted to resolve the grudge between him and Lu Xuan. Otherwise, he wouldn't have killed all the Luo family members to show his sincerity.
Even Long Boming, who was sitting at the head of the table, was intrigued. He asked, "Lu Xuan, how did you do it? You should know that even I wouldn't dare to face tens of thousands of Beast Tide head-on. "
The crowd once again turned their attention to Lu Xuan. They wanted to hear how he had accomplished such an impossible feat.
At this moment, Little Tanuki was standing on Lu Xuan's shoulder and shouting. Clearly, it was showing off its contribution. Unfortunately, it still couldn't speak the human language, which confused the crowd.
Lu Xuan patted Little Tanuki's head to calm it down. Then, he smiled and explained, "I asked Little Tanuki to lure the first Demon Emperor out and kill it. Then, I asked Little Tanuki to replace the position of the Demon Emperor and become the commander of the thirty thousand Beast Tide. Due to my strength and the fact that Little Tanuki is from the Demon Clan, those Demon Beasts didn't resist after I promised them great benefits."
"Next, there will be a Beast Tide. To deal with the Beast Tide, I only need to deal with those Demon Emperors. Unfortunately, the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range is too big. It will take a lot of time to encounter a Beast Tide."
Chen Rong laughed and said, "As expected of Lu Xuan, Lu Xuan. I didn't expect you to come up with such an idea. You killed several Demon Emperors in the mountains and drove nearly two hundred thousand Demon Beasts away. Your contribution in this Beast Tide is undoubtedly the greatest."
Long Boming stroked his beard and said, "Not bad, not bad. The Beast Tide was uncontrollable after it charged down the mountain. It takes a lot of effort to kill all the Demon Emperors. Lu Xuan's actions have greatly reduced the pressure on us. Otherwise, who knows how many more people would have died."
Lu Xuan said modestly, "I dare not claim credit. However, during the battle with the Demon Emperors, I discovered that this Beast Tide is actually man-made. All the Demon Emperors who participated in the Beast Tide are controlled by a Soul. As far as I know, there are still members of their race remaining on the Sky Sword Continent. I hope Elder Long can inform the Nine East Alliance in time so that we can respond as soon as possible."
As soon as he said this, the great hall fell silent. Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel strange. He thought everyone would be shocked, but it was completely different from what he imagined.
"You also know about the Soul Race?" Long Boming asked curiously.
Lu Xuan's heart trembled slightly. Long Boming had used the word "also", which meant that they already knew about it. Lu Xuan's mind raced, and he suddenly understood. Buno had once said that he knew of their existence, so he must be someone of high status in the human race. It seemed that an existence like the Jiuehua Alliance naturally knew about the Soul race.
However, he had too many secrets. Lu Xuan naturally didn't dare to casually reveal them. He asked, "Elder Long, what do you mean?"
"Do you know why we're gathered here?" Long Boming asked. When he saw Lu Xuan shake his head, he said again, "Back then, we killed some Demon Kings and obtained two Soul Orbs. Later, we found out that it was the Soul Race who was causing trouble this time. Although the beast tide has retreated, that Hun clan has yet to show himself. I have already received orders from the alliance chief to find and kill that Hun clan as soon as possible. Otherwise, he will definitely cause trouble again. The matter that we are discussing is to find that Hun clan and kill him. "
When Lu Xuan heard this, he immediately understood. He immediately revealed a relaxed smile and said, "So that's what it is. Then you don't need to discuss it anymore."
Long Boming asked curiously, "Why? Did you find the hiding place of the Soul Race?"
When he said this, Long Boming couldn't help but feel a little excited. Although they could be sure that the Soul Race was controlling the Beast Tide, they must be hiding in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. However, the Hundred Thousand Mountains was too big, and there was no lack of powerful Demon Kings. If they wanted to search all the way, not only would it take time, but it would also take a lot of effort. In addition, the Soul Race was good at hiding. Even if they searched like this, they might not be able to find him.
Lu Xuan nodded lightly. Long Boming was immediately overjoyed. He suddenly stood up and said, "Where is the Soul Race? Quickly bring us there! "
"No need. I've already killed him." When Lu Xuan said this, everyone was shocked!
Even Zhao Ying couldn't help but say, "Lu Xuan, don't talk nonsense. This is not a child's play. It involves the life and death of the human race in the Sky Sword Continent."
