In the past, he chose to keep it a secret as he was worried about Li Ping.
However, after experiencing so many things during this period of time, he understood a lot more.
If he told Li Ping this news, although she would be worried, there would still be hope in her heart. No matter what happened, there would always be a glimmer of hope in her heart.
As long as there was hope, it was enough.
"What news?" Li Ping asked curiously when she saw Lu Ming's solemn expression.
"Father, he might not be dead!"
Lu Ming said seriously.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ping's body suddenly trembled and her eyes widened.
Then, Li Ping's body trembled more and more violently. Her eyes flashed with strong hope as she said in a trembling voice, "Ming … Ming 'er, what did you say?"
"Mother, I said that father might not be dead!"
Lu Ming repeated.
"Not dead? Not dead? Ming 'er, is that true? "
Slowly, Li Ping revealed an emotional expression as tears flowed down her cheeks uncontrollably.
Then, she asked again, "Ming 'er, where did you get this news from? Is it true? If your father is not dead, where has he been all these years? "
"Mother, it's like this …"
Then, Lu Ming told Li Ping about his encounter with Zhou Linshan in detail.
"So it's him. He sent me a spiritual sword and a pendant back then. I once asked him about Yun Tian's whereabouts, but he told me that Yun Tian was dead. It turns out that he was lying back then. In that case, Yun Tian is really still alive in this world?"
Li Ping said excitedly. Her eyes were filled with hope.
"Yes, mother. Now that father might be in the hands of the Shifang Sword Sect, I plan to go to the Imperial Capital to investigate father's whereabouts."
"Ming 'er, I heard that the Shifang Sword Sect is the strongest sect in the Blazing Sun Empire. You must be careful and cautious."
Li Ping warned. She was very worried.
"Mother, don't worry. Ming 'er will not clash with the Shifang Sword Sect now. I'm just investigating. Nothing will happen!"
Lu Ming said.
Li Ping was relieved.
"Mother, don't worry. As long as father is still alive, Ming 'er will definitely save father and let our family reunite."
Lu Ming said firmly.
"Ming 'er, mother believes in you!" Li Ping smiled.
Lu Ming nodded heavily and said, "Mother, Ming 'er will leave now."
"Go!"
…
Lu Ming bid farewell to Li Ping and left.
Walking out of the Lu Mansion, Lu Ming looked towards the back of the Lu Mansion. He pondered for a moment before he made his way there.
Behind the Lu Residence was an orchard filled with fruit trees.
Among them, there were also small bridges, flowing water, pavilions, and lakes. The environment was very elegant.
Lu Ming walked into the orchard and came to a small lake. Beside the lake, there was an old man fishing.
This old man was none other than the golden-robed elder sent by the Mystic Essence Sword Sect Master, Lin Xueyi, to guard the Lu Family.
"Lu Ming, your senses are really sharp. When I was cultivating for the past two days, you were able to sense even the slightest fluctuation."
The golden-robed elder smiled.
"Lu Ming, thank you for coming to guard the Lu Family!"
Lu Ming cupped his fists and bowed.
"You don't have to thank me. I'm just following orders. Moreover, this is what you deserve. After all, the sect has wronged you!"
The golden-robed elder sighed.
Lu Ming was silent and did not say anything.
The golden-robed elder pondered for a moment and sighed. "Lu Ming, I hope you don't blame the Sect Master. In fact, he was put in a difficult position. As the Sect Master, he has to put the Mystic Essence Sword Sect's interests first."
"Senior, I'm not blaming anyone. In this world, the weak are prey to the strong. If I want to blame someone, I can only blame myself for being too weak. However, sooner or later, I will surpass all forces and families. Heaven will no longer be able to cover my eyes!"
Lu Ming said. It seemed like he was talking to the old man, but it also seemed like he was talking to himself.
The old man was stunned. He seemed to be moved.
"No matter what, Lu Ming still wants to thank you, Senior!"
Lu Ming cupped his fists again and bowed to the old man. He then turned around and strode away.
Looking at Lu Ming's back, the old man was in a daze. After a long time, he let out a long sigh. "Sect Master, perhaps you made the wrong choice this time!"
…
After leaving the orchard, Lu Ming did not leave Firestorm City immediately. Instead, he found a secluded place and entered the Temple of Paragon to cultivate.
Time passed and night fell. Lu Ming finally left the Temple of Paragon. He put on his black robe and bamboo hat and left the city. Then, he headed in the direction of the Imperial Capital.
The Imperial Capital was located at the center of the Burning Sun Empire. It was more than ten thousand miles away from Firestorm City.
Even with Lu Ming's current movement technique, it would take him more than twenty days to reach the Imperial Capital.
The first three days were calm and peaceful. However, on the evening of the fourth day, Lu Ming, who was in a hurry, suddenly stopped.
He felt a few murderous intents looming over him.
Someone wanted to kill him!
Without any hesitation, Lu Ming stomped his foot and soared into the sky.
Just as Lu Ming soared into the sky, a sharp and cold Sword Qi pierced the place where Lu Ming had been standing.
With a sizzling sound, the Sword Qi left a bottomless hole in the ground.
Swoosh! Swoosh! …
Then, seven or eight figures flashed out from all directions like ghosts.
Lu Ming swept his gaze across the room.
There were eight figures in total. They were all wearing black robes and masks on their heads.
They were wearing silver wolf masks.
Shadow Wolf Pavilion!
Lu Ming immediately realized that this was the Shadow Wolf Pavilion, one of the top four assassin organizations in the Burning Sun Empire.
The silver wolf masks meant that they were Silver Wolf assassins of the Shadow Wolf Pavilion.
"Five sixth-grade Martial Masters and three seventh-grade Martial Masters. The Shadow Wolf Pavilion really thinks highly of me, Lu Ming!"
Lu Ming's eyes flickered.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
…
Eight murderous cries and eight extremely sharp Sword Qi pierced towards Lu Ming.
"Let's see who will kill who?"
Lu Ming roared. At the moment of life and death, Lu Ming directly activated his bloodline. At the same time, an ancient shield appeared on his body.
"Explode!"
Lu Ming ignored the attacks of the other seven. His long spear turned into a ray of light and shot towards a sixth-grade Martial Master assassin of the Shadow Wolf Pavilion.
Peng Peng Peng …
Seven consecutive attacks landed on Lu Ming's body. Four of them were blocked by the shield.
The shield buzzed and vibrated continuously, but it was not broken in the end.
However, a shield could only cover a limited area and could only block one direction. Three more Sword Qi landed on Lu Ming's body.
Fifty percent of the attacks were absorbed by the Spirit Devouring Bloodline, but the remaining power still made Lu Ming's body tremble.
Boom!
At this moment, Lu Ming's attack also exploded. The sixth-grade Martial Master expert did not even have time to scream before he was killed by a spear.
"Devour!"
A huge devouring power appeared and devoured the blood essence of the assassin.
"Damn it, didn't they say that Lu Ming merged with the Demon King's soul and was half crippled? How can it be so terrifying! "
"It seems that the information was wrong. Let's avoid that shield and directly attack Lu Ming's body. Once the time of his bloodline is up, we can kill him!"
