Behind the four of them, the crystal wall that was originally calm began to shake.
Cracks appeared on the crystal wall as it suddenly shattered. A powerful force pushed the four of them into the tunnel, violently flinging them into the sky.
Finally, the four of them appeared on the ground.
However, the ground shook violently and was on the verge of collapsing.
The ground began to crack inch by inch, while the interior of the valley also began to shake.
"Let's leave this place!"
Although they did not know what had happened, it was obvious that something bad had happened.
The four of them tapped their feet on the ground and glided out of the valley.
Suddenly, there were rumbling sounds in the valley. One after another, each more powerful than the last.
After the four of them left the valley, the valley had completely collapsed and debris was flying everywhere.
"That was close!"
Lu Yuqing patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief.
"How could this be?"
"This place is very strange. With our cultivation base, I'm afraid we can't see anything!"
Mu Yun shook her head and said, "Perhaps we can come back when our cultivation base increases in the future to find out what's wrong!"
"Okay!"
The four of them looked at the scene in front of them and were about to leave.
"Miss!"
"Second Miss!"
At this moment, a shout was heard.
A few figures ran over.
"You are … the guards of the Ninth Guard?"
"Yes, I am Chu Han!"
"I am Liu Shen!"
The two men leading the group were both Middle Empty God Realm. They looked at Lu Yuxue and Lu Yuqing and nodded with a smile.
"Captain Mu!"
"Deputy Captain!"
The two of them turned to look at Mu Yun and Xie Qing and cupped their hands to salute them.
"Why are you still here?"
"Reporting to Captain Mu, we were attacked by a group of people and we scattered. We couldn't find you, so we ran for our lives. Later, we found that those people were still searching for you. It seems that you and Miss are still safe, so they have been loitering around. We have already sent a group of people back to report to the Clan Leader!"
"No one came?"
"No …"
Hearing this, Mu Yun was finally sure that Lu Yuxue was right!
Lu Mingkun was most likely injured!
Otherwise, he would have come by now.
"Let's go back first!"
"Chu Han, Liu Shen, right?" Looking at the two of them, Mu Yun smiled faintly and said, "The two of you, go and check if there are any members of the Nine Guards around!"
"I did!"
Chu Han nodded and said, "There are about thirty people left. I sent a few people to the Lu Family!"
"Alright, gather everyone and let's go back!"
"Yes!"
Immediately, everyone began their return journey.
Along the way, Lu Yuxue and Lu Yuqing seemed to be worried and did not say much. Mu Yun did not say much either.
Of the hundred guards, only thirty or so were left. This was not a small price to pay.
Fortunately, Gu Qinghe and the two experts from the Gu Clan had died. From the looks of it, the Lu Clan's losses weren't too serious.
It took them a day to return to Guangping Prefecture. When they arrived at the Lu Family, a figure came out of the mansion to welcome them.
"Big Sister!"
"Second Sister!"
The person who came was dressed in a green robe. He had an amiable face, light eyebrows, and thin lips.
"Third young master!"
When the guards saw this person, they all bowed respectfully.
It seemed that this was Lu Mingkun's adopted son, Lu Yan!
Mu Yun and Xie Qing also bowed respectfully.
"Let's talk inside!"
"Alright!"
The three of them immediately walked along the front yard towards the middle yard.
"Mu Yun, Xie Qing, follow me!"
Mu Yun and Xie Qing originally planned to return to the front yard to rest, but they were called by Lu Yuxue.
Generally speaking, the middle yard was where the Lu Clan discussed matters. The special guards were the direct guards that Qin Shan was in charge of. The Nine Troops were not qualified to enter.
"What's going on? What's going on?"
After Mu Yun left, the guards immediately began to discuss.
"Chu Han, Liu Shen, the two of you were the first to find the First Young Mistress and Second Young Mistress. What did you find?"
"I don't know!"
Chu Han replied, "Don't ask, understand? Don't ask what you shouldn't ask! "
"Tsk!"
The rest of the people immediately began to gossip.
Guards like them were not allowed to enter the middle yard.
At this moment, Mu Yun and Xie Qing followed behind Lu Yuxue and the other two into the middle yard. The middle yard occupied a large area. It had a main hall, a side hall, and pavilions. It was obvious that it was a place specially for the Lu Residence to receive guests!
"Father!"
Lu Yuxue greeted respectfully when they arrived at a front hall.
"You're back. Come here and let me take a look!"
A weak voice sounded in the main hall.
The few of them entered the main hall. When they saw the figure in the main hall, Mu Yun knew that Lu Yuxue was telling the truth.
A figure stood in the main hall. It should be Lu Mingkun.
At this moment, Lu Mingkun's face was pale. On both sides of his pale face, there were wisps of black gas spreading.
His entire body seemed to be haunted by evil spirits. He looked very weak.
"Father, why are you up?"
Lu Yuxue hurriedly went forward when she saw her father.
"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, why didn't you stop me?"
"They couldn't stop me!"
Lu Mingkun waved his hand and said, "Who did it this time?"
"Gu Qinghe!"
"It was indeed the Gu Clan!"
Lu Mingkun snorted and said, "I think the Gu Clan wants to stir up trouble!"
"Father …"
Lu Yuxue said helplessly, "You're the pillar of support now. However, your strength has decreased instead of increasing. The Gu Clan seems to have sensed something …"
"Sensed something?"
Lu Mingkun's expression changed.
Lu Shouyi and Lu Renyun, who were standing beside him, were also shocked.
"Impossible!" Second Uncle Lu Shouyi shook his head and said, "Big Brother, only the few of us know about this. How could the Gu Clan know?"
"That's right, Xiao Xue." Lu Renyun also said, "Are you sure?"
"Yes!"
Lu Yuxue nodded.
The atmosphere in the main hall immediately became rather tense.
Lu Mingkun sighed.
"Hmm? Who are they? "
Lu Mingkun suddenly asked as he looked at Mu Yun and Xie Qing.
"Oh, these two are the captain and vice-captain of the ninth team who saved my sister and me!" Lu Yuqing hurriedly said, "Although they are at the Later Stage of the Empty God Realm, they can now kill a martial artist at the Peak of the Empty God Realm!"
As soon as she said that, the few of them looked at Mu Yun and Xie Qing and were stunned.
A Later Stage of the Empty God Realm killed a Peak of the Empty God Realm?
It was almost impossible to kill someone who was at a higher level in the Realm of the Gods!
"Father, I plan to appoint Mu Yun and Xie Qing as the vice-commanders of the Lu Residence. They will assist my uncle and manage the guards of the Lu Residence!"
Lu Yuxue nodded and said.
"Xue 'er, are you serious?" Lu Mingkun was shocked.
"Yes!"
Lu Yuxue said, "Captain Mu and Vice-Captain Xie are both outstanding individuals. They are qualified for this position!"
Hearing that, Lu Mingkun nodded.
"Since that's the case, you can make the arrangements. I have already handed over the matters of the residence to you. Everything will be up to you!"
"Yes!"
Hearing that, Lu Yuxue nodded.
"Uncle Qin!"
"Yes!"
"Bring the two of them away and instruct them to do what they should do!"
"Yes!"
Qin Shan immediately brought Mu Yun and Xie Qing out of the main hall.
"Father!"
Lu Yan cupped his hands and said, "Eldest Sister's action is too abrupt. I'm afraid that Mu Yun and Xie Qing won't be able to convince the others …"
"I believe in my judgment of people!"
Lu Yuxue said calmly.
"Alright, Yan 'er!"
Lu Mingkun shook his head and said, "If you can obtain the qualifications to enter the Kenshin Sect like your sister, I will leave the matters of the residence to you. I can do it too!"
"I …"
Lu Yan lowered his head gloomily.
Among the three siblings, only Lu Yuxue had passed the examination of the Kenshin Sect. He and Lu Yuqing had failed.
In their eyes, the eighteen prefectures of the Kenshin Sect were like ants. How could it be so easy to enter?
When Lu Yuxue entered the Kenshin Sect in the future, it was not impossible for her to unify the eighteen prefectures!
"Alright, all of you are dismissed!"
Lu Mingkun waved his hand, unwilling to say more.
A trace of unwillingness flashed across Lu Yan's eyes.
When he returned to his room, a servant girl walked up to him.
"Third Young Master, what happened?"
Lu Yan's eyes were red. He pulled the servant girl over and pressed her down on the table, viciously pressing her under his body.
"I am the Third Young Master. Why should I go back on my words?"
"Among the five major families in Guangping Prefecture, other than the Lu Family, is there another Young Master who is as useless as me?"
He went on a rampage and did not care about the feelings of the servant girl beneath him.
After venting, Lu Yan's lips curled into a cold smile.
"Lu Mingkun, since you don't trust me, then … don't blame me for being merciless!"
At the same time, on the other side, Mu Yun and Xie Qing followed Qin Shan to a courtyard.
"I will stay in this courtyard on normal days. The two of you can choose between the houses on the three sides!"
"Yes!"
Qin Shan said again, "As Deputy Commanders, the two of you will accompany me in handling matters in the future!"
"Let's go, I will show you the thousand guards!"
As Qin Shan spoke, they arrived at a martial arts field in the middle of the courtyard.
"Greetings, Commander Qin!"
Instantly, the thousand people in the square formation spoke loudly and clearly.
"Remember, from today onwards, Mu Yun and Xie Qing are the Deputy Commanders of the guards. You should know what to do when you meet in the future, right?"
"Yes!"
"Greetings, Deputy Commander Mu and Deputy Commander Xie!"
Mu Yun and Xie Qing looked at the crowd and felt that they were indeed different from the rest.
These people obviously looked different from the thousand or so guards in the Nine Great Guards.
When the two of them first arrived at the Nine Great Guards, those people looked at them with a look of dissatisfaction.
But these people only had respect in their eyes!
Indeed, the core guards were different.
"Dismissed!"
As Qin Shan spoke, the crowd dispersed.
"Deputy Commanders, besides the core guards, the Nine Great Guards' captains will also be under your management!"
Qin Shan said, "From today onwards, I will be in charge of the core guards. When I am not around, you will be in charge of the Nine Great Guards!"
"Yes!"
"Alright, now I will show you the Nine Great Guards!"
"Mm!"
At this moment, Qin Shan smiled faintly and said, "Normally, Deputy Commanders are transferred from the various guards and are promoted from Captain. This is the first time that a Deputy Captain has become a Deputy Commander directly. Moreover, you, Mu Yun, have just become a Captain and now you are a Deputy Commander!"
"So, when you see the Nine Great Guards … Oh, no, it should be the Eight Great Guards …" Qin Shan smiled and said, "You might encounter some trouble!"
"Trouble?"
The two of them looked at each other.
"Perhaps they will be dissatisfied and challenge you. Actually, this is good too. You can take it as a show of strength for them!"
