A powerhouse from the Imperial Road Mystic Realm could fly at a terrifying speed. In less than two to four hours, the Asura Duke brought Long Yu and Ren Pingfan back to the vicinity of Asura Valley.
What surprised Long Yu was that in the sky near the Asura Valley, there was a group of a thousand people hovering in the air as if they were waiting for their return.
"Asura Yong Chang, the Undying Duke!"
When the Asura Duke brought the two of them closer, the group of more than a thousand people instantly shouted out. Their voices shook the heavens, almost shattering Long Yu's eardrums.
"This power, no wonder they're here to welcome the Imperial Road Hidden Territory cultivators."
When Long Yu saw this situation, his heart couldn't help but tremble. He saw that at the head of the crowd, there were many familiar people. For example, Shu Chan. Her eyebrows were curved, her charming face was filled with a smile as she looked at him.
Near the Princess Shu Chan was a veiled woman in a silver dress. She held a silver mirror and waited in the crowd. She was one of the Asura Duke's concubines, Yin Jing. However, she wasn't Shu Chan's biological mother.
Aside from these two, Tian Xinghe, Bai Qing, and the others that Long Yu had met before were also there. It was obvious that the Duke's expedition to the Ghost Evil County was a big event for the entire Asura Valley. Almost all the important people were here.
"Everyone, this time, with the help of Concubine Mirror, I injured the Ghost Evil County Duke. He won't be able to recover for at least ten years."
With a smile on his face, the Shura Prefecture King flew closer to the crowd and announced the result of this battle, "After the Shura Selection ends in two months, I will prepare to conquer the Nightmare Mountain Range in the Ghost Evil County and make the entire Nightmare Mountain Range part of our Shura County!"
"Asura Yong Chang, the Undying Duke!"
Hearing this, the crowd cheered even louder. They all hated the Ghost Evil County for a long time. Now that they heard that the Asura Duke injured the Ghost Evil County Duke, they were all excited.
However, there were some people in the crowd who didn't look too good. They seemed to be out of tune with the people around them.
Long Yu also notices this group of people. He squints his eyes. There are more than ten people in this group. Each of them looks a bit like Zou Xiongliang and Zou Li. It seems that they all belong to the Zou family.
The leader of the group was clad in golden armor. He had a majestic stature and a crescent blade hung from his waist. He was the leader of the Zou Family. Of course, he was the Zou Family's Patriarch, the Deputy Commander of the Asura Valley's Imperial Army, Zou Fang.
At this moment, Zou Fang was glaring angrily at Long Yu, as if he had a big problem with Long Yu.
After all, the news of Long Yu killing his son, Zou Xiongliang, had reached his ears a few days ago. How could he not hate Long Yu?
Of Zou Fang's four sons, two had already died, and it was impossible for him to avenge them. Now that another one had died, he was furious to the extreme.
If it wasn't for the Asura Duke, Zou Fang definitely wouldn't let Long Yu go!
Of course, Zou Fang wouldn't act rashly unless he was tired of living. What a joke! Would he dare to touch a young man that the Asura Duke had taken a liking to?
In Asura County, the Duke was the undisputed ruler. Everyone else had to obey the Duke. Otherwise, they wouldn't have a good ending.
"Commander Zou, you don't look too good. Is there a problem?"
The Asura Duke naturally noticed Zou Fang's gloomy expression. He glanced at him and asked calmly.
"May I be so bold as to ask how Zou Li is doing?"
The Deputy Commander of the Imperial Army, Zou Fang, immediately bowed in response to the Asura Duke's question.
"The Devil Legion's Deputy General Zou Li colluded with the Duke of Ghost Evil to frame General Huo Yuanbai. This is a traitor and he has been executed by me."
The Asura Duke said bluntly.
The faces of the Zou Family darkened at his words.
Although Zou Li was the culprit, there might be other members of the Zou Family involved. If Zou Li was killed just like that, the people behind him would be in grave danger.
Of course, the Asura Duke didn't have any evidence, so he couldn't kill all the Zou Family members in one fell swoop. However, there were still some clues that could be found. There might be more victims in the near future …
When the silver mirror returned, everyone roughly understood the situation. It turned out that a Human Tribulation Realm kid, Long Yu, had saved General Huo Yuanbai. This shocked everyone.
The Zou Family hated Long Yu to the core. After all, Zou Li's plans had all been ruined by Long Yu.
If Long Yu didn't have the Great Desolate-Level Combat Weapon, the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, how could the Duke of Ghost Evil not have killed Huo Yuanbai?
As long as Huo Yuanbai died, there would be no evidence. The Duke of Ghost Evil would have enough evidence to prove that Huo Yuanbai had betrayed Shura County.
Unfortunately, under the protection of Long Yu's Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, Huo Yuanbai was safe.
Even the Duke of Ghost Evil had failed to destroy the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower in a short period of time. The Lieyang County's Yang Guan and Yang Kong would never be able to do it.
"In this battle, the young hero Long Yu, although he hasn't been in Asura County for long, he displayed outstanding courage and insight, as well as outstanding combat talent. Furthermore, he protected Great General Huo Yuanbai from death.
The Asura Duke took out a shining medal. It looked like a precious diamond. This was a first-class medal. It represented the honor of Shura County, and was also a Heaven-level Combat Weapon.
In the entire Shura County, Long Yu was the first person to receive a first-class medal at such a young age. Many people were jealous of him.
A first-class medal was the proof of honor, and it represented the Asura Duke's protection.
If Long Yu had been killed by someone else on a normal day, the Asura Duke would definitely avenge him. Whoever killed Long Yu would definitely pay with their life. There would be no mercy.
This made the faces of the Zou Family members even darker.
Now that Long Yu had a first-class medal, it would not be easy for them to kill Long Yu.
However, in the end, Long Yu could not sit back and relax.
Normally, Long Yu was protected by the Asura Duke, but under certain circumstances, he could not be protected. For example, when he was participating in the Shura Selection, or when he was participating in a group training mission.
If Long Yu was killed, the Asura Duke would not seek revenge for Long Yu.
After all, if he was absolutely safe, it would have a negative impact on Long Yu's cultivation. Also, if Long Yu was protected during the Shura Selection, it would be unfair to the others.
"Alright, you can all go now."
The Asura Duke waved his hand, and the group of over a thousand people dispersed. Before they left, they were still chattering. The fact that Duke Gui Xie was injured this time was a good thing for all the cultivators in Shura County.
On top of that, a Human Tribulation realm young cultivator had saved General Huo Yuanbai's life, and even received a first-class medal from the Asura Duke. It was shocking. It seemed like another young cultivator in Shura County was about to rise.
… …
The Shura Prefecture King handed the First-class Medal to Long Yu, smiled and said, "This First-class Medal, other than being a symbol of honor, it also represents the protection of me, the Shura Prefecture King. It is also a high-ranked Heaven Ranked Combat Weapon, and its defensive capabilities are not bad. You can take a good look at it."
"Mm, thank you, Senior Duke."
Long Yu nodded and took the first-class medal. He discovered that the entire medal was actually sparkling with a diamond-like brilliance. The whole thing was actually made of cyan diamond, and there were even more precious materials added to it.
The defensive ability of such a medal was definitely much stronger than the Silver Prism Lock that Long Yu had previously obtained!
After all, the Silver Prism Lock that Huo Yuanbai had forged himself was only an Earth Upper Grade Lock, and it was only slightly mixed with a green diamond.
But this first-class medal was basically made of Green Edge Diamond, one could imagine its sturdiness!
"In this medal, apart from the Cyan Edge Diamond, there's also a Resplendent Diamond."
The Asura Duke looked at Long Yu, who seemed to be studying the medal. He smiled and explained, "The Resplendent Diamond is a supplementary material used to forge Desolate Grade Warrior Weapons. It is extremely rare, and rarely used on Heaven Grade Warriors. This first-class medal represents the honor of Asura County. Therefore, it is impossible for martial cultivators who have not reached the Emperor Path Arcane Realm to destroy it. As for how strong the defensive barrier is, it will depend on your personal strength. "
"Mm."
Long Yu nodded. Now he knew another precious material, the Resplendent Diamond, was actually a supplementary material used to forge Desolate Grade Warrior Weapons.
Unfortunately, the entire Asura County seemed to be unable to forge Desolate Grade Warrior Weapons. This supplementary material could only be used to forge Heaven Grade Upper Grade first-class medals.
"Also, this Warrior Weapon is for you to play with."
After the Asura Duke finished his explanation, he took out a Blood Shadow War Flag from the Space Combat Weapon in his robes. This flag was obtained from Deputy General Zou Li, and was kept by the Asura Duke.
Long Yu remembered that this was a Heaven Grade Superior Grade Warrior Weapon, which was even higher than a first-class medal!
Let me play with it?
Long Yu took the Blood Shadow War Flag doubtfully.
"Going to the Heaven Prison Thunderbolt Pool to look for your father is just a piece of cake for me. Compared to what you have done this time, a first-class medal is still a little lacking. I will make up for it with this Blood Shadow War Flag."
The Asura Duke's lips curled up slightly. Then, a dark cloud rolled over and brought him and Yin Jing away.
At this moment, Shu Chan finally flew in front of Long Yu while giggling.
"You're really something."
The Young County Princess patted Long Yu's shoulder and giggled, "You've only been gone for a few days, and you've already done such a great thing. Even I didn't expect this."
"That Zou Li was just courting death."
