The excited Fourth Elder
In a certain valley outside Luo Yun City, there were currently over a dozen people in a cave with nervous expressions.
These people were the Lu Clan's secret team. The leader was the Fourth Elder of the Lu Clan.
At this moment, more than ten people were waiting anxiously in the cave.
Not long after, an old man in his fifties or sixties walked out of the cave.
Seeing this, one of the Lu Clan's experts at the entrance of the cave quickly asked, "How is it, Fourth Elder? Are you sure? "
When he asked this question, the other people's faces tensed up.
Everyone here was a direct descendant of the Lu Clan. They knew the importance of this trip, and their target was in the cave. Naturally, they were very concerned about the results of the Fourth Elder's investigation.
The Fourth Elder smiled and looked at the crowd. He said excitedly, "It's confirmed. That thing really exists, and it's ready to be harvested!"
Hearing this, the Lu Clan's people were excited.
"Hahaha, it really exists. That's great!"
"Ha, looks like it's time for the Lu Clan to rise!"
"That's great. Once we succeed, who will be a match for the Lu Clan?"
"…"
More than a dozen people instantly shouted in excitement. Their faces were filled with extreme excitement.
However, they seemed to be worried about something. Even though they were excited, they were very quiet. Even if this place was very remote, they were afraid that they would attract other people if they were a little louder.
The Fourth Elder did not stop them from being excited. After a while, he signaled for them to quiet down.
Then, he said seriously, "Alright, I won't say more. This matter concerns the rise of the Lu Clan. From now on, you all have to be careful. When the best time to harvest the Godly Herb is noon, I will personally harvest it. When that time comes, you all have to be very alert!"
Even though he knew that no one would appear here, when he thought of the importance of this matter, the Fourth Elder still patiently instructed everyone.
No one thought that the Fourth Elder was being long-winded. Instead, they nodded seriously.
Seeing this, the Fourth Elder nodded in satisfaction and felt a little relieved.
However, at this moment, Fourth Elder's heart was filled with joy!
Who would have thought!
He really didn't expect this news to be true!
He recalled that a few months ago, a spy of the Lu Clan had inadvertently obtained news from a secret location, which had caused a commotion in the entire Lu Clan.
Then, what was even more unexpected was that this news was actually related to the super genius Luo Yun from a thousand years ago.
A few months ago, a scout team from the Lu Clan discovered a mystical place. After a round of exploration, they lost over a dozen Spiritual Vein Realm experts. In the end, only an expert at the eighth level of the Spiritual Vein Realm survived, and he returned with heavy injuries.
However, he brought back a piece of news that shocked all of the Lu Family's experts.
It was about the reason why Luo Yun was such a genius.
It turned out that the reason why Luo Yun was such a genius was because he accidentally swallowed a medicinal herb when he was young.
As for what kind of herb it was, Luo Yun himself did not know. However, Luo Yun knew that his Spiritual Root was formed automatically after he consumed that herb.
Luo Yun originally did not have any Spiritual Roots!
The experts of the Lu Clan were dumbfounded when they heard the shocking news.
Who was Luo Yun?
That was a legendary figure from a thousand years ago!
Back then, even Great Emperor Yang had said that Luo Yun's future achievements would not be inferior to his.
In other words, Luo Yun's talent was something that even Great Emperor Yang could not compare to.
However, such a legendary figure actually did not have any Spiritual Roots?
When the Lu Clan first heard the news, they did not believe it. However, when they finally sent someone to that secret realm, things changed.
The person leading the team this time was the father of the Lu Clan's strongest expert, Lu Yuanjiang. He was the eldest brother of the Lu Clan's four great elders, Lu Zhengfeng!
Lu Zhengfeng returned not long after. However, when he returned, he was the only one left.
More than twenty Spiritual Vein Realm experts and a few of the Lu Clan's consecrators who were at the tenth level of the Spiritual Vein Realm had all died.
However, Lu Zhengfeng was unusually excited. After returning to the Lu Clan, Lu Zhengfeng immediately summoned the Lu Clan's four great elders and the Patriarch to inform them of the big news.
The news was correct because that secret realm was where Luo Yun had died.
No one knew how Luo Yun had died, but he had left behind a lot of good things before he died.
There was a mysterious cultivation technique, a few powerful weapons, and news about his Spiritual Roots.
Although Luo Yun did not know what kind of herb had given him such a strong Spiritual Root, after some research, he realized that the herb he had eaten could grow again as long as its roots were not cut off.
However, this growth speed was extremely slow. It would probably take hundreds or even thousands of years.
After learning about the existence of such a mysterious herb, Lu Zhengfeng was naturally very tempted.
Unfortunately, the place where Luo Yun had died was also very dangerous. He had barely managed to escape and was already seriously injured.
Therefore, after giving some instructions, he immediately went into seclusion to recuperate and cultivate the mysterious cultivation technique that Luo Yun had obtained.
On the other hand, Lu Yuanjiang listened to his father and discussed with the four great elders. This was the result of the current situation.
Truth be told, the Lu Clan's Fourth Elder was feeling very uneasy before he arrived. However, when he discovered the medicinal herb and discovered that it had matured, the Lu Clan's Fourth Elder became extremely excited.
This was because they had stayed in Luo Yun City for a few days and investigated both openly and secretly for a long time.
The Fourth Elder and the others naturally paid attention to the Luo Family of Luo Yun City. The Luo Family was naturally the descendant of Luo Yun.
The current Luo Family was no longer the Luo Family of a thousand years ago. Although it had been passed down, it was all thanks to the ancestral teachings of Great Emperor Lian Yang that the Luo Family had been passed down.
However, even though it had been passed down, the current Luo Family was still very weak.
The entire Luo Family only had a dozen Spiritual Pulse experts. A Legendary Stage powerhouse had not appeared for a long time.
Because of this, the Fourth Elder had relied on his seventh-level Spiritual Pulse cultivation to secretly turn the Luo Family upside down. However, there was no information about the herb in the Luo Family at all.
This made the Fourth Elder feel that the information his big brother had received was fake.
However, he still decided to give it a try. After searching for a few days, he finally found the cave that Luo Yun had mentioned in a small mountain far away from Luo Yun City.
In the end, it was confirmed that the information was true. The cave existed, and so did the herb.
The Fourth Elder did not doubt that the herb was really as magical as it seemed.
This was because the herb was just as Luo Yun had said. Although it did not have a strong aura, it was completely yellow and emitted waves of yellow light.
This was the first time the Fourth Elder had seen such a magical herb. Therefore, he immediately believed the information that Luo Yun had left behind.
Although the Fourth Elder really wanted to consume the herb himself, the information that Luo Yun had left behind made it clear.
This magical herb could only be consumed by people who did not possess Spiritual Roots. The Fourth Elder would not be able to enjoy it.
However, he could not do it. There was someone in the Lu Family who was suitable!
The Fourth Elder's heart burned with excitement at the thought that a super powerhouse would appear in the Lu Family in the near future.
The Fourth Elder suddenly turned to the Lu Family members behind him and instructed, "Forget it. I'll go in and wait. You guys spread out and hide in the dark. If a stranger appears …"
The Fourth Elder's face hardened. His eyes were filled with killing intent as he gestured to the crowd to kill. He said in a sinister tone, "Kill without mercy!"
"You guys know the importance of this matter. Therefore, you can't make any mistakes that could affect the future of the Lu Family. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" The crowd replied in unison, their faces filled with determination.
"Alright, that's all. You guys can disperse!"
Nodding slightly, the Fourth Elder went into the cave after he finished speaking.
Seeing this, the other twelve Spiritual Pulse Stage experts also scattered and quickly hid.
Logically speaking, the Lu Family was so cautious that they would be able to detect anyone approaching and kill them immediately. This would prevent any news of them from leaking out.
Unfortunately, the experts of the Lu Family, including the Fourth Elder, who was in the seventh level of the Spiritual Pulse Realm, did not expect that their every move would be known by someone far away.
Erm, it should be two people. A Small Thing was one of them.
According to the route obtained from Boss Lu, Luo Yun City was not the final destination. It was just an unimportant location on the route.
Originally, Qin Shaofeng saw that Luo Yun City was relatively remote and located in the middle of a forest. It would be easier for him to set up an ambush. Even if the ambush failed, it would be easy for him to escape and hide with his Sky Dance Technique and Wave-like Subtle Steps.
Therefore, Qin Shaofeng chose Luo Yun City. He was prepared to ambush this mysterious team from the Lu Family.
However, he did not expect the situation to turn out this way.
In fact, two days ago, Qin Shaofeng found the Fourth Elder and the rest. This surprised Qin Shaofeng and he even thought that the team led by the Fourth Elder had completed their mission and was on their way back.
However, Qin Shaofeng soon realized that something was wrong.
Under the lead of the Fourth Elder, the dozen or so Spirit Pulse experts began to search the area within a hundred miles of Luo Yun City, as if they were looking for something.
This made Qin Shaofeng realize that there were some things that Boss Lu did not know about. For example, the Lu Family might have deliberately hidden the true route of the team from Boss Lu.
Luo Yun City was just an inconspicuous place on the route given by Boss Lu. It could even be said that this was one of the possible routes.
This was because there were three routes like Luo Yun City that led to any destination that Boss Lu knew about. However, because Luo Yun City was remote, the Fourth Elder would definitely return to the Lu Family once they returned.
In fact, those were all fake. The destination and the several prepared routes were all a smokescreen.
The Lu Family's real target was Luo Yun City!
Qin Shaofeng quickly confirmed this from the actions of the Fourth Elder and the rest.
At the same time, Qin Shaofeng secretly rejoiced. He had chosen Luo Yun City because he saw that this place was remote and the Lu Family was planning to return to the Lu Family in this direction.
However, he did not expect to hit the jackpot in the end.
After understanding this, Qin Shaofeng secretly hid himself and tailed behind the Lu Clan's group.
