Returning to Dragon City
The setting sun was as red as blood, illuminating the Mountain River Fortress.
The Tai Yiwei higher-ups in the fortress were surprised to see Qiu Yinhe bring Luo Zheng back.
Although Qiu Yinhe rarely visited the Mountain River Fortress, the Heaven Chasm Swords in the fortress were planted by him one by one.
Qiu Yinhe planned to bring Luo Zheng back to Dragon City.
However, Luo Zheng insisted on waiting for Su Kuan here.
Su Kuan escaped from Phoenix that day. As long as he was careful on the way back, there shouldn't be any problems.
After Biyun City was attacked, the Mountain River Fortress immediately sent reinforcements.
However, the first batch of reinforcements was intercepted by Jinwu. Then, the second batch of reinforcements was sent …
The Tai Yiwei who were fighting against Jinwu outside the plains finally managed to hold on until the second batch of reinforcements arrived. However, 70% of them were dead or injured.
Yan Da died, but Yan Dang managed to kill another Hive Demoness with his own strength. However, he was also seriously injured, so it was a pyrrhic victory.
When the second batch of reinforcements brought the remaining Tai Yiwei back, they met Su Kuan who was carrying Su Youxue on his back.
Thus, Su Kuan followed the army back to the Mountain River Fortress.
In these two days, Su Kuan had been thinking about Luo Zheng …
In order to show his loyalty to the Tai Yi Heavenly Palace, his father Su Youshen led the Family Su's elders to set up a place of spiritual dwelling in the Heavenly Palace. Most powerful blacksmiths and alchemists would do this.
Even if they died, they could be resurrected.
However, the Banner Lord didn't join the Tai Yiwei. Naturally, he didn't have a place of spiritual dwelling. How could he escape from Phoenix?
On the way back, Su Kuan was depressed.
However, when he returned to the Mountain River Fortress, he saw Luo Zheng coming to greet him.
Su Kuan's eyes were wide open …
"Banner … Banner Master … How did you survive?" Su Kuan had an incredulous look on his face.
"Do you want me to die?" Luo Zheng asked with a smile.
Su Kuan shook his head like a rattle drum. "Of course not! Definitely not … "
"Su Kuan, is this the Banner Lord you mentioned to me?" A weak voice came from behind Su Kuan. It was Su Youxue.
Not long after Su Kuan carried Su Youxue on his back and ran away, she slowly woke up.
When she saw Su Kuan, her face was also filled with disbelief. It was hard for her to imagine that Su Kuan would come all the way from Dragon City for her. For a guy who had just entered the Nirvana Realm not long ago, the difficulty could be imagined.
Su Kuan then recounted the series of events that had transpired in Jade Cloud City after she had fainted. Only then did Su Youxue understand just how perilous the situation had been. It was truly fortunate that she had managed to survive.
Along the way, Su Kuan kept talking about Luo Zheng. Su Youxue was naturally curious about this Banner Lord.
"Yes, this is my Lord Banner Lord. He is …"
Su Kuan flattered Luo Zheng non-stop until Luo Zheng was about to blush. Su Kuan had no choice but to interrupt him.
However, just as he decided on this topic, Su Kuan brought up another topic. He still wanted to know how Luo Zheng had escaped.
Luo Zheng naturally would not reveal the Hermit's remarkable power. Now that Su Kuan had returned to the Mountain River Fortress, it was time to return. He only said, "Follow me."
Following which, he found Qiu Yinhe in the fortress. At the same time, he explained to Su Kuan, "It was Senior Qiu who saved my life back then. Otherwise, I wouldn't be standing here today."
"Senior, Senior Qiu!"
Although Su Kuan's cultivation was not high, he was still knowledgeable. Such a mission in the Heavenly Palace with the surname Qiu was naturally that Tian Jiedu.
Qiu Yinhe was very casual with Luo Zheng, but he was rather cold to everyone else. Even the five-star Tai Yiwei in the fortress, even if they were extremely respectful to him, he was still indifferent to them.
"Since the person you are waiting for is here, I will send you back," Qiu Yinhe said.
"Thank you, Senior Qiu," Luo Zheng cupped his hands and said.
Then, Luo Zheng took Su Kuan and Su Youxue back to Dragon City, and Qiu Yinhe personally sent them back …
After returning to Dragon City, Su Kuan had to escort Su Youxue home, so he left first.
However, before leaving, Su Kuan asked Luo Zheng for the Snow Sword. Since this sword was made by his Family Su, he could take advantage of this opportunity to help Luo Zheng repair it.
As for Qiu Yinhe, he handed a golden sword token to Luo Zheng. "I know you still have many things to take care of in Dragon City, but these are just trivial matters. You don't belong to Dragon City. Please go up the mountain as soon as possible. I still have something to pass to you."
After receiving the token, Qiu Yinhe quietly disappeared in front of Luo Zheng.
During the time that Luo Zheng left, Dragon City did not change much.
Compared to the constant fighting in Mountain View State, Dragon City was much more peaceful.
When Luo Zheng found Yue Baicheng, he was shocked to find that the number of people under his banner had increased by a lot. Now, there were close to 2000 people!
As for the disciples of the academy, their cultivation levels were also increasing steadily!
Seeing Luo Zheng return, the academy disciples were very happy. Qiu Siyuan said, "This time, Banner Lord has accumulated enough merit points. Now that we have enough people, he should be able to be promoted to Alliance Master."
Seeing their happy faces, Luo Zheng felt a bit sad.
He knew that his days in Dragon City would soon come to an end. He was reluctant to part with the students of the academy on his way back.
However, even if he went up the mountain himself, Luo Zheng would not mistreat the academy disciples.
Mo Yijian was able to create Sword Spirit Enlightenment and sell it at the foot of the mountain. Luo Zheng could do the same. Just this profit alone would ensure that the academy disciples would have enough cultivation resources.
Next, Yue Baicheng reported the income and expenditure of these days to Luo Zheng. Yue Baicheng was very serious and responsible. He clearly separated the accounts.
This was the peak season for Dragon City to recruit new people. The demand for Sword Spirit Enlightenment Elixir was quite high. Naturally, the income was quite high. He actually sold 90% of the elixir he left behind.
It was said that the last portion of the elixir was kept because Yue Baicheng was reluctant to sell it. The current price of Sword Spirit Enlightenment Elixir was as high as 30,000 divine crystals per bottle …
After holding this large amount of divine crystals, Luo Zheng once again turned his gaze to the True Intent Sword Pavilion.
He had always been interested in the original of the Eternal Sword Intent. However, the price of ten million divine crystals was too shocking.
Now that he had a stable income of Sword Spirit Enlightenment Elixir, ten million divine crystals was nothing to Luo Zheng.
However, after entering Dragon City, Luo Zheng still went straight to the Sword Training Tower.
Qiu Yinhe was not interested in that stone. After absorbing Luo Zheng's flesh, he had been thinking about it. However, it was inconvenient for him to inspect it on the way, so he could only suppress his curiosity.
In the Sword Training Tower's secret cultivation room, Luo Zheng took off his clothes and released his consciousness to carefully inspect it.
