Long Yu stood at the mouth of the narrow valley, hiding behind a tree.
Liu Yuan, dressed in black, stood beside him. Her snow-white hair danced in the night wind, gently tugging at Long Yu's heartstrings.
"Long Yu, thank you so much this time."
Meeting Long Yu again, Liu Yuan felt much closer to him.
"You're welcome. It's what I should do. Your half of the Lunar Heaven Tablet is still with me."
Long Yu said with a smile.
"It's fine. I'll leave it with you."
Liu Yuan laughed softly.
Compared to her own innocence, a mere half of the Lunar Heaven Tablet was nothing to Liu Yuan. She did not know how to repay Long Yu for saving her from the North Sea Border City.
Furthermore, Long Yu had been seriously injured because of it!
"Oh, right, Long Yu, are you really going to stand guard for that old man?"
Liu Yuan asked. In reality, because Pine Crane had seriously injured Long Yu, she did not have a good impression of Pine Crane.
Logically speaking, based on Long Yu's personality, he would never forgive anyone who hurt him!
Now, not only was Long Yu following Pine Crane, but he was also standing guard for him. If he only wanted to deal with the North Sea Border City, this reason was too far-fetched. It was definitely not enough for Long Yu to do this.
"So what if I stand guard for a night?"
Long Yu said with a smile, "Oh, right. Since we have nothing to do, let's comprehend the Lunar Heaven Tablet together."
He did not reveal his true intentions. After he finished speaking, he took out the much smaller Lunar Heavenly Stele and placed it between him and Liu Yuan.
Now that the two of them had comprehended the power of the Lunar Laws of Heaven and Earth, if they could improve further and comprehend the Lunar Laws of Heaven Domain, then their strength would increase by another level.
As for improving further and truly cultivating the laws, that would only be possible after they stepped into the Heaven Tier mystic realm.
Liu Yuan didn't ask any further. Since Long Yu said so, then she would comprehend the Lunar Heavenly Stele first!
The two of them sat down cross-legged. The Lunar Heavenly Stele was between the two of them, emitting waves of greyish white mist. If it was a normal Martial Cultivator that hadn't condensed a True Spirit, sitting in this kind of environment for an entire night would definitely freeze to death.
However, this cold Qi was nothing to Long Yu and Liu Yuan, who had comprehended the laws of the moon.
Night fell quickly.
The entire valley was calm and tranquil, with the constant chirping of birds and insects. Under the illumination of the bright moonlight, Long Yu felt rather carefree.
Unfortunately, he knew that this valley might be relatively quiet in the first half of the night, but in the second half of the night, there would almost be people from the North Sea Border City searching!
If Long Yu was the Governor of the North Sea Border City, he wouldn't let Pine Crane leave just like that. Otherwise, there would definitely be big trouble soon.
If the North Sea Border City sent people to search, it would most likely be the tens of thousands of Martial Soldiers in the city. Therefore, the first batch of people to find this valley could not be experts, so Long Yu wasn't afraid.
However, the following waves of people would definitely be stronger, and there might even be experts of the Lv 9 True Spirit Realm!
At that time, Long Yu could only rely on the Middle Profound Level Combat Weapon, the Overturning Ocean Seal, that Pine Crane had placed on him.
Late at night, all was silent.
Long Yu was comprehending the power of the Lunar Heavenly Stele with Liu Yuan when he suddenly heard light footsteps coming from the forest outside the valley.
"Someone's coming."
Long Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately kept the Lunar Heavenly Stele.
Of course, Liu Yuan had also sensed the movement in the distance, and she became alert. Once she discovered any Martial Cultivators from the North Sea Border City, she would definitely kill them immediately!
As Liu Yuan's friend, Long Yu hated the North Sea Border City's shamelessness to the extreme. As the person involved, Liu Yuan obviously hated the people from the North Sea Border City even more.
"The valley is right in front. Let's go in and take a look. If there's no one, we should go back and rest."
"This is so tiring. I wonder who that grey-robed old man is, that he actually needed tens of thousands of people to search for him?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Let's go to the valley in front and take a look. Come back early!"
As these whispers ended, two Martial Soldiers from the North Sea Border City stepped on the dead branches in the forest and approached the valley step by step.
Perhaps because the valley was a suspicious area, they walked very slowly, afraid of making any noise.
Unfortunately, these Martial Soldiers had yet to condense their True Spirits, and did not cultivate any high-level movement martial skills. Even if they made a little noise, it would be detected by Long Yu and Liu Yuan!
Liu Yuan's figure transformed into a stream of sword light and instantly shuttled through the pitch-black forest.
She did not make any sound. Like a gust of wind, she approached the two Martial Soldiers who had come to explore the valley!
Pfft! Pfft!
As the pair of scarlet short swords in her hands danced, the two ninth level Martial Dao Martial Soldiers were instantly killed by her and fell to the ground.
At the same time, the sound of several Martial Soldiers falling to the ground could be heard not far from the forest outside the valley.
Liu Yuan knew that Long Yu had succeeded.
"That's it. There's no need to deal with it."
Soon, Long Yu appeared in front of Liu Yuan and returned to the entrance of the valley with her.
The movements of the other Martial Army were still very cautious. They first sent two Martial Soldiers to patrol the entrance of the valley and even more Martial Soldiers were on guard in the forest. If they discovered anything amiss, they would immediately react and inform the main force to come over.
Unfortunately, Long Yu had stealthily found the Wu Army that was guarding the back and casually killed all of them with a single strike!
In the silence of the night, no one knew that such a one-sided massacre had occurred in the forest outside the entrance of the valley.
Until the smell of blood from the corpses of the six Martial Soldiers spread into the distance with the night wind.
Long Yu had deliberately not dealt with these corpses in order to attract more people!
He returned to the entrance of the valley and raised his head to look at the moon. He knew that it was already early in the morning and there were at most four hours until daybreak.
At daybreak, he would definitely be able to attract some experts. At that time, it would be up to Pine Crane to fulfill his words of "one to come, one to die, two to die".
"Someone died here. Quickly inform the others. Quick, quick!"
Not long after, a cry of alarm came from the forest not far away. It seemed that the smell of blood had attracted the other Martial Soldiers from the Northern Sea Border City!
Without any hesitation, Long Yu's figure flashed in the night. Before long, there were more corpses in the forest.
However, the situation in the valley had finally been conveyed.
"There should be some experts rushing over soon. Be careful."
Long Yu stood at the entrance of the valley, narrowing his eyes as he calculated the time.
I wonder how old man Pine Crane's elixir refinement is going?
The sky was already slightly bright. Before Pine Crane's elixir refinement was completed, Long Yu had to guard the entrance of the valley no matter what and not let anyone enter!
"Let's go, it's just ahead. That old man must be hiding in this valley!"
After a while, a series of messy footsteps came from the forest, causing Long Yu's heart to tremble. He knew that the real experts were coming!
From afar, he saw a cluster of flames rising in the forest. Then, a figure appeared in the flames, holding a flame banner. It was the bodyguard of Young City Lord Xing Liang!
"Seal of Overturning the Oceans, go!"
Long Yu did not hesitate. Against an expert at the Ninth Layer True Spirit Realm, he could only rely on his Middle Dark Rank Combat Weapon, the Seal of Overturning the Oceans!
This Seal of Overturning the Oceans had already merged with Pine Crane's Heavenly Enlightenment. It possessed its own consciousness, and did not require anyone to control it. It could automatically fight and defend against strong enemies!
The Seal of Overturning the Oceans flew out from Long Yu's hand, and a whirlwind of the Overturning the Oceans appeared, causing a gust of wind to blow across the dark forest.
Under this gust of wind, the flames that had just risen in the forest were instantly extinguished!
"It's that Combat Weapon! Li Jin, catch it for me, you'll be rewarded handsomely! "
A familiar and urgent voice entered Long Yu's ears, causing Long Yu to feel a surge of joy.
It was indeed the Young City Lord of the Northern Sea Border City, Xing Liang!
"Young City Lord, please be careful."
The bald Martial Cultivator Li Jin, who was holding the flame banner, let out a groan and took a step forward, preparing to fight the Seal of Overturning the Oceans.
It was extremely difficult to subdue a Middle Dark Rank Combat Weapon, even Li Jin did not have the confidence to do so!
Luckily, he was sure that the grey-robed elder had been injured by the City Lord. Otherwise, he would not have only used one Combat Weapon.
As for the two girls …
What was there to be afraid of with two Fourth Layer True Spirit Realm cultivators? Even if they attacked together, they would not be a match for Young City Lord Xing Liang!
What he did not know was that the one guarding the entrance of the valley was not the two girls, but Long Yu!
While the bald Martial Cultivator and the Seal of Overturning the Oceans were fighting, Long Yu's figure was like a ghost as he rapidly passed through the forest, getting closer and closer to Young City Lord Xing Liang.
In the dark forest, neither Long Yu nor the others could see anything clearly. Initially, the bald Martial Cultivator Li Jin had condensed a flame to light up the forest, but it was extinguished by the power of the Seal of Overturning the Oceans.
Young City Lord Xing Liang and the large group of Martial Cultivators around him did not notice Long Yu's stealthy approach!
The large group of Martial Cultivators around Xing Liang were mostly martial soldiers who had yet to condense their True Spirits. Among them, there were only three or four generals who had condensed their True Spirits.
At this moment, it was impossible for them to stop Long Yu's merciless attack!
"Nine Nether Dragon Fist, Nine Nether Explosion!"
Without any hesitation, Long Yu heard Young City Lord Xing Liang's voice and threw a punch towards the ground from afar. At the place where Young City Lord Xing Liang's voice came out, a thick Nine Nether Qi was condensed.
Nine Nether Explosion, gushed out!
Young City Lord Xing Liang's cries rang out immediately!
"Young City Lord! What's going on! "
The bald Martial Cultivator Li Jin, who was attempting to subdue the Seal of Overturning the Oceans, heard Xing Liang's cries and immediately waved his Flame Banner, igniting a cluster of flames that lit up half the forest.
With one glance, he saw Young City Lord Li Jin, who was in the middle of the group of Martial Cultivators' protection, being shrouded by a dark pillar of Qi, causing him to scream in pain.
Seeing this, how could Li Jin not know what was going on?
"Jun Buyan!"
