Lü Shu thought about it. He now had Xiaoyu by his side. He would not be able to defeat tens of thousands of cultivators, but he could handle ordinary small situations. He could completely flatten a place like Field Ridge Town.
He said, "Let's go to the town and see the situation first."
On the way back to the town, Zhang Weiyu saw Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu whispering to each other. It did not look like the relationship between a slave master and a slave.
However, Zhang Weiyu felt that it was none of his business. Lü Shu had secrets, and so did he. They met by chance and had gone through thick and thin together, so there was no need to look too deeply into it.
On the way, Lü Shu began to tell Lü Xiaoyu, "It's better for us to keep a low profile and find our way home. Although you've controlled a Class-A soul, there are also people in the Divine Treasure Realm here. Some of them are even higher than the Divine Treasure Realm. Back then, Nie Ting could cut Heaven's Wrath when he was Class-A. I haven't even seen him fight in the Divine Treasure Realm. Who knows how strong he is? Therefore, it's better for us to be careful. If we quietly find a way home, things here will have nothing to do with us. "
To be honest, Lü Shu was still very afraid of the strong people in this world. Class-A Nie Ting, Chen Baili, and Li Xianyi were terrifying enough. He used the Seal of Mountains and Rivers to control the spirit qi in the courtyard house in Liu Hai Alley. In the end, Nie Ting only had a flash of inspiration and understood a little bit of the truth. He had just stepped into the Divine Treasure Realm with one toe and had not even crossed Heaven's Wrath. With just a knock on the table, the barrier of the Seal of Mountains and Rivers and the courtyard was broken...
What would the Divine Treasure Realm be like? Lü Shu could not imagine it.
If he had seen the Divine Treasure Realm in action, he would at least have some idea. The problem was that he had not seen it before. The unknown was the most terrifying thing.
If the Divine Treasure Realm was the realm where one's body became the laws, then would the laws have a high or low level? Lü Shu felt that he shouldn't think about this kind of thing for now. It was too far away.
At this time, Zhang Weiyu stole a glance at Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu, "Why don't you two hide in the cave with me?"
Lü Shu glanced at him and knew what he was thinking. Zhang Weiyu and the others were a group of commoners who did not have any cultivation and lived a hard life. If Lü Shu went with him to the cave, he would definitely buy more food …
Zhang Weiyu, who never freeloaded food and drinks in the past, now felt that freeloading was pretty good …
Moreover, if Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu went, Zhang Weiyu and the others would be like bodyguards. No matter how weak Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu were, it was still better than having no protection at all, right?
Zhang Weiyu did not know Lü Shu very well, but he knew that Lü Shu would never leave his friends behind in times of crisis. They were now considered half friends, right?
When they arrived in the town, Lü Shu and Zhang Weiyu found that the town was not as chaotic as they had imagined. Every shop was tightly closed, but they could still see people nervously looking out through the cracks in the door.
These slaves with the mark did not dare to run away. If the Blackfeather Army really attacked, they could only wait for death.
The slave masters knew what was important and what was not. The war was the most important thing right now, and they could not let these slaves run away and ruin the plan.
Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu's footsteps were very clear in the quiet town. Zhang Weiyu went to knock on the wooden door of the grain shop, and when the door opened, Lü Shu saw the shop's worker hiding in a corner, shivering. The ones who opened the door were two fifth level slaves from House Yu, pointing their blades at Lü Shu and Zhang Weiyu.
Lü Xiaoyu looked at Lü Shu. 'Kill them?'
Lü Shu shook his head, and the slave with the blade said, "Why are you two here? Where's the Blackfeather Army?!"
Zhang Weiyu said, "The Blackfeather Army … disappeared …"
"Then what are you guys doing?" The slave was confused.
"We're here to buy some food …" Zhang Weiyu said.
The two slaves walked out of the grain shop and looked outside the town. There was no sign of the Blackfeather Army at all. When they first heard the rumbling sound, they felt that something was wrong. After that loud sound, all the hoofbeats disappeared.
It was all very strange …
It was impossible to say that this was the Blackfeather Army's ploy. After all, the vanguard force could take advantage of the chaos to maximize the results of the battle. Who said that they would let the enemy prepare before fighting?
One of the slaves ran into the town, followed by several people who went out to check, trembling with fear. If they hesitated even a little, the mark on their necks would cause them pain. This was the slave master forcing them to go out and find out the situation.
After a while, these slaves came back and shouted, "There's really no sign of the Blackfeather Army!"
Then, Lü Shu was shocked to see a large number of slaves coming out of various alleys and small shops on the street. He wondered where these people had been hiding before this.
All the workers in the shops came out, and even the ladies in the brothel next to them gathered outside the door and chattered.
Lü Xiaoyu glanced at Zhang Weiyu, pointed to the place where the ladies came out, and asked, "What's that place?"
"A brothel." Zhang Weiyu was stunned for a moment and said, "Don't you have that over there?"
"We don't have such rampant …" Lü Shu could only explain it this way.
But before he could finish speaking, he saw Lü Xiaoyu walk over to the ladies and then point at Lü Shu. "Has he been here before?"
Lü Shu: "???"
"Negative emotion points from Lü Shu, + 666!"
What the hell? Is this the time to ask about such things?! Am I that kind of person?
The ladies took a look at Lü Shu and chattered, "I've never seen this good-looking young man before, but if he's coming, we'll definitely serve him well."
At this moment, the sound of hooves came from the east side of the town. However, this time, Lü Shu realized that no one in town was panicking. Instead, there was joy on their faces.
Zhang Weiyu said softly, "The reinforcements from Nangeng City are here. I don't know who's leading them, but the city lord of Nangeng City is a second-rank noble."
Just as he said that, a group of cavalrymen in red armor entered Field Ridge Town at lightning speed. In just an instant, these cavalrymen had taken over all the main roads in Field Ridge Town.
The red embellishments on the cavalrymen's helmets were like fluttering flags, and their horses were wearing dignified red visors.
The clattering of hooves could be heard as an extremely valiant youth rode a horse. The tall horse slowly arrived in front of Field Ridge Town's guard. The guard's head was very low, and his body was bent over. He seemed to be a bit nervous.
The young man looked down at the guard from his warhorse. "Where's the Blackfeather Army?"
"I don't know …"
"Do you know the crime of lying about military intelligence?"
The guard's body trembled a little. "We really heard the sound of hooves outside the town, but we don't know where the Blackfeather Army went …"
He felt that he was really wronged. There was no mistaking the sound of hooves, but how could they lose such a big Blackfeather Army?
