While Lu Xiaotian and Yue Hong were talking, Hua Key had already been subdued by the old man. Hua Key resisted stubbornly for a while. Layers of black cloth tainted with yin ghost qi wrapped around Hua Key tightly, wrapping him like a rice dumpling.
Hua Key struggled for a while, but was only able to twist a little. The old man showed a satisfied smile. He reached out and pulled Hua Key, who was wrapped in black cloth, to his side. At the same time, he tossed Hua Key's sumeru ring to Lu Xiaotian.
"Wait." Yue Yu suddenly called out to Lu Xiaotian, who was about to leave. "Looking at senior's movements, it seems a bit like a friend of mine. I wonder if he's a disciple of the front."
"What's his name?" Lu Xiaotian glanced at Yue Yu.
"Lu Xiaotian."
"Maybe he's from the same sect. I don't know him." After all, he had joined forces with the monster race to repel the two from the Hua family. Lu Xiaotian didn't want the two to know his background. If news of this leaked out, he wouldn't be able to return to Yuan Ling City in the future. Although Lu Xiaotian didn't have a sense of belonging to Yuan Ling City, there were still some trivial matters he had to take care of there.
"I also have things to take care of. Goodbye!" After capturing Hua Key, the old man's wizened face was full of smiles. He cupped his hands towards Yue Hong and hurriedly left.
Lu Xiaotian didn't follow the corpse-scabbed insects to collect monster primordial spirits. Instead, he came to Falling Sun Slope. Over the years, the prefectural town had already been captured by several monster tribes. Falling Sun Slope had already become the frontline of the battle between the human race and the monster race. Falling Sun Slope was famous for its mountain range. The mountain range was filled with layers of barriers, and the slope was inclined to the west. On the other side was a thousand meters high, like a huge vertical triangle. Near sunset, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the ground a fiery red. Falling Sun Slope was also named for this reason.
At this time, Lu Xiaotian was sitting cross-legged under an old locust tree on one of the slopes. From time to time, people with high and low cultivation would pass by. There were also some who were like Lu Xiaotian, either meditating or recuperating from their injuries.
However, most of these people had dejected expressions and were not in high spirits. When Lu Xiaotian arrived, the first news he received was that the Yuanwei Army had suffered heavy losses. The other Conjoint Body Mighty Figure of Yuan Spirit City, Wu Changlian, had arrived with his guards, stabilizing the battle that was about to collapse.
A huge battleship broke through the clouds in the distance. A huge 'Zhu' character was engraved on the battleship. On the ship, there was a very familiar fat figure. Among the people Lu Xiaotian knew, besides He Hu who stayed in Yuan Spirit City, there was only Zhu Jinfu in front of him.
"Brother Zhu, please come down for a chat." Lu Xiaotian felt that his luck was quite good. He actually managed to meet Zhu Jinfu here. He immediately sent a voice transmission to Zhu Jinfu.
"Brother Lu." Zhu Jinfu was originally looking left and right at the bow of the ship with some worry in his eyes. When he heard Lu Xiaotian's voice transmission, his face lit up. After looking around for a while, he hurriedly flew down when he saw Lu Xiaotian.
"Brother Lu, where have you been all these years? When we parted in the cave abode, I thought I would never see you again." Zhu Jinfu was extremely moved when he saw Lu Xiaotian.
"I ran into some trouble back then, but I managed to get out safely. How's your group? "Lu Xiaotian asked.
"Don't mention it. We suffered heavy casualties. There were more than ten people in our group, but only three or four survived. Even Shu Tiance was killed by two Bloodhoof Soul-sucking Beasts that were as strong as him. His body and soul were completely annihilated. Lou Qingqing also died. " Zhu Jinfu's face darkened when he thought of the tragic situation back then. "Zimo went missing. I don't know if she's dead or alive. She hasn't returned and there's no news of her at all."
Lu Xiaotian was startled, not expecting Zhu Jinfu's group to have such a tragic encounter.
"That's not all. Since you disappeared from the cave abode, Zhou Yu and Cui Liu felt that they had no foundation in Yuan Spirit City and were unable to deal with the threat of the Hua Family. With the help of Ye Ziyu, they joined the Yuan Wei Army, but there's still no news of them." Zhu Jinfu added.
"Yuan Wei Army suffered a great defeat. Who suffered the greatest loss?" Lu Xiaotian asked. He had stayed in Yuan Spirit City for a long time, but Yuan Spirit City was too big and the forces inside were too complicated. Lu Xiaotian didn't know much about them and didn't know how powerful they were.
"This is not the place to talk, Brother Lu, come with me." Zhu Jinfu glanced around.
"Only you know that I'm back. I don't want to make it known to everyone. I'll follow you for a while. "Lu Xiaotian said.
"I couldn't ask for more." Zhu Jinfu smiled when he heard this and directly led Lu Xiaotian to the Battleship.
"So, the one who suffered the greatest loss is the Lord Yap. How is Ye Ziyu? "Arriving on the Battleship, Zhu Jinfu directly arranged a spacious room for Lu Xiaotian. Lu Xiaotian confirmed his guess once again. Mo Yuyan and the forces behind her had begun to deal with the Lord Yap, so Ye Ziyu could naturally be caught in the crossfire at any time.
"Brother Lu, Young Lady Ye really treats you differently. When Brother Lu came to the cave abode, Young Lady Ye should have known. When she came out of seclusion, she personally came to look for you with that female disciple of yours who refined pills. Miss Ye's strength had advanced at an astonishing rate, especially her attainments in the way of the sword. Her cultivation talent was not inferior to any of the masters of Yuan Spirit City. From the prefectural town back then, all the way to the cave residence, there were many demon experts who had fallen under Miss Ye's sword. Compared to Brother Lu's green cloak, her reputation was not much worse. If I hadn't been lucky enough to meet Young Lady Ye, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see Brother Lu now. "
Zhu Jinfu shook his head and smiled, then said, "Perhaps it's because Young Lady Ye made such a big name for herself among the Soul Formation cultivators that the Lord Yap was worried about her, so he sent someone to bring Young Lady Ye back. I heard that Young Lady Ye went into seclusion again after returning, and there are no rumors of her coming out yet. She should be in Yuan Spirit City right now. "
Lu Xiaotian heard this and breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Joe Yu, Ye Ziyu and Hong Yue were fine. The Yuanwei Army's crushing defeat didn't have much to do with him. But it was a pity for Zhou Yu and Cui Liu, his two old friends.
As for Ye Ziyu, she cultivated the Misty Sword Technique just like him and swallowed half of Yang Feng's sword embryo. Ye Ziyu had always been a sword cultivator, so it would be strange if she was weak. If she didn't deliberately suppress the sword embryo, this Misty Sword Embryo was still very powerful. In addition, Ye Ziyu's cultivation talent had always been excellent. If this continued, it was not impossible for her cultivation to surpass Lu Xiaotian's.
"Which are the troops under the direct command of the Lord Yap?" Lu Xiaotian asked again.
"The Yuanwei Army, the Yuanshuo Army, and the Yuanling Army under the direct command. Whether it's the City Lord or the Deputy City Lord, they all have their own methods. Maybe there are some other forces in the open and in the dark, but we don't know. "Zhu Jinfu thought for a moment and said. "The Yuanwei Army has suffered heavy losses. I'm afraid it will take many years to recover. “
