White Lotus sat up. Lu Chen stared at the girl in front of him. Although it had only been a few days since they last met, for some reason, he felt that the White Lotus in front of him had become a little unfamiliar.
Of course, in fact, Lu Chen did not have a deep understanding of White Lotus. It was just that these days, he had more opportunities to spend more time with White Lotus, so they were somewhat familiar with each other. But now, there was a strange feeling in that familiar feeling. It was as if a drop of soy sauce had suddenly fallen into a bowl of porridge. It didn't look too obvious, but even though it still looked white, it was still different from before.
The expression on White Lotus's face also looked a little strange. She looked at Lu Chen in a daze, as if she was carefully observing this man. After a while, she said, "What's the matter?"
Lu Chen was about to speak when suddenly a series of footsteps came from the door. Both of them turned their heads together and saw Black Dog walking in from outside the door.
Atsu stood at the door, then raised his head, a pair of green eyes flashing, and suddenly growled at White Lotus in a low voice, with some obvious hostility.
The room was originally quiet, but now no one spoke. White Lotus's body shrank back a little, as if she was a little afraid.
Lu Chen looked at Atsu for a moment, then shook his head, stood up, walked to Atsu, and reached out to stop Atsu. Then he turned back to look at White Lotus on the other side of the room, smiled, and said, "I don't know what's wrong with this stupid dog recently. It's always like this. I'll take it out first. I don't have anything urgent to do anyway. I'll talk to you later. "
White Lotus hesitated for a moment, as if a little surprised, but she still nodded and agreed.
Lu Chen led Atsu out of the room and into the courtyard. Without stopping, he walked through the corridor and quietly left the house.
They followed the small alley all the way to the Horse Washing Bridge, Lu Chen's footsteps slightly paused for a moment, he looked at Atsu, then nodded and said: "Dog nose is quite sensitive."
"Woof!" Atsu barked.
Lu Chen smiled and turned back to look at the depths of the darkness. Then, he said, "Let's go. I wanted to explain it to her, but who knew that after such a long time, she wouldn't even mention that branch … "
…
Days passed. As the sea of blood in the sky got closer and closer to the center, the gap above the city became smaller and smaller. The entire Immortal City became darker and darker. It looked like it was about to completely sink into the blood-red light.
In the past, the Blood Sea Phenomenon had covered the sky, but to be honest, it had never been as depressing as it was now. Perhaps this slow and gradual process made people collapse, so more and more people fled from the Immortal City.
The originally bustling streets were a lot more deserted. More than half of those who could walk had left. Those who were left were either ambitious people who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to make a fortune, or those who had nowhere to go. In contrast, almost no one left Mount Tian Long. This also showed the strong control of the few big shots in Zhenxianmeng. This also made Mount Tian Long unexpectedly become the most lively and crowded place in the Immortal City.
However, things were still slowly changing.
The inspection of going up and down the mountain gradually began to become stricter, and the division of forces became very obvious. In the past, everyone was under the same Zhenxianmeng, and all the passages up and down could be walked without obstruction. But now, there was a faint trend of separation.
Fuyunji controlled a few checkpoints up and down the mountain, and other people from the Dazai Yuan and Heavenly Law Hall could not pass through here. The same thing also happened in the territories of the other major forces.
In the past, people often moved around with each other, but now everyone tightly guarded the territories of their own forces. They did not dare to go out easily, let alone go to the territories of other forces. In this strange situation, no one knew what would happen.
Whether it was Supreme Lord Tian Lan, Supreme Lord Tie Hu, or Supreme Lord Guang Bo, none of them actually came out to say or give similar specific orders. But things were just so strange. Everyone silently reached a tacit agreement to be hostile to each other, and gathered more and more people in their respective territories.
In this regard, Lu Chen did not understand at first. Even if they wanted to attack others, wouldn't it be better to attack when they were alone or when there were fewer people? Now, this kind of situation was forcing people to stick together more and more tightly. Wasn't this just asking for trouble?
He once raised this question to Supreme Lord Tian Lan, but Supreme Lord Tian Lan only smiled without saying anything, and asked him to think about it himself after a few more days.
Lu Chen stared at the sea of blood in the sky and thought for a long time. When the sky darkened, the sun rose and the moon set after an unknown number of days had passed. The last bit of the sky was about to be swallowed by the sea of blood.
Supreme Lord Tian Lan sent someone to call Lu Chen over, and then took him straight to the cave in the underground city at the foot of the mountain.
On the way, Supreme Lord Tian Lan seemed to ask Lu Chen casually, "Have you thought it through?"
Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said, "I've thought about it for a long time, but it is reasonable to say that no matter what, as long as it is to deal with those people, it is not a good strategy to let them gather their strength like this. Unless … "
Supreme Lord Tian Lan replied with a "hmm", looked at Lu Chen with a slightly questioning look, and said, "Unless what?"
"Unless you already have some tricks up your sleeves and set up an unknown trap that you are extremely confident of winning. So, the more strength the enemy gathers, the happier you will be, and you will be able to completely destroy them in one go? "
Supreme Lord Tian Lan laughed out loud and walked away with his hands behind his back, saying with a smile, "Something like that."
Behind him, Lu Chen rolled his eyes. He thought to himself, This damned baldy is now arrogant to the point that he's somewhat unreasonable.
He was not going to deal with ordinary people, but a few Soul Formation Perfected Lords working together.
…
When they walked to the entrance of the tunnel leading to the underground city, Lu Chen noticed that there were clearly more guards here than before. After a rough estimation, there were at least three times more guards. In the crowd, Lu Chen did not see Liu Ting and the others whom he knew previously, as if they had been replaced.
"I've already told Xue Ying and the others about the matters above ground," Supreme Lord Tian Lan said to Lu Chen, "Go down with me, the matters below are more important."
Lu Chen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Is it time?"
Supreme Lord Tian Lan looked up at the sky, and so did Lu Chen. In the sky, in the center of the sea of blood, there was only a gap with a radius of less than 100 feet left. From afar, it seemed like it would be completely drowned in the blink of an eye.
"We're almost there," Supreme Lord Tian Lan said to Lu Chen calmly, "Let's go, we're going to do something important."
