"Why don't you have a sip of the Empathy Water? From now on, you and I are brothers!" Lu Sheng asked in a serious manner.
The masked figure slowly stood up and gently took off his mask. The face that was revealed was that of a handsome, fair-skinned man.
"I was just passing by. I never expected to encounter such an interesting conversation." The man's eyes were filled with curiosity as he looked at Lu Sheng.
"May I ask for your name?" he asked softly. His voice was like a clear spring that constantly reverberated in the cave.
"I'm Lu Sheng. And you are? "Lu Sheng's soul's intuition told him that the person in front of him had extremely terrifying strength.
As a pinnacle expert of the Underworld Net, he had such precise intuition. This was the most basic confidence of an expert.
"I'm Hongyun." The man answered with a smile. "I was going to visit a friend far away, but I never expected to hear your subversive and powerful words while passing by. It was truly an eye-opener! Brother Lu's horizons and knowledge are so broad that I've never heard or seen anything like it. "
"Hongyun?" This name was too random. Just grab a bunch of people and they could all have this name.
There were a few Red Eagles in the neighboring nest, a Rainbow Red Bird in the distant pine forest, or a family of giant squirrels on a giant tree even further away. Just the ones that Lu Sheng knew of with the name Hongyun numbered four to five.
"Brother Lu, you are knowledgeable since birth. You were born extraordinary. If you are interested, you can visit my Fire Cloud Palace." The man invited with a smile. "I, Hongyun, may not have much, but I have a gourd of fine wine. You can drink to your heart's content!"
"Brother Hongyun sure has a good temper. You can call anyone you meet a brother. Wouldn't that mean that your brothers and sisters would be everywhere in the world?" Lu Sheng felt that the person in front of him was a little too free and easy. Wasn't he afraid that others harbored ill intentions?
He had some understanding of this world. Although it wasn't filled with danger, it wasn't a benevolent place either. It was a place where the strong preyed on the weak. What sort of environment could produce a person with such a personality?
Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes. With this kind of personality, he was either too naive or too well protected by others, so much so that he didn't know how dangerous the current situation was.
Either they were too powerful and didn't care about the dangers around them.
Lu Sheng's intuition told him that it was the second type.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Red Specter looked at Lu Sheng's undisguised gaze and immediately felt a little strange.
"I'm just curious," Lu Sheng replied calmly.
"Is that so? Curiosity … "Hongyun sighed with emotion." At that time, I remember that my first consciousness was also born out of curiosity … "
Lu Sheng was curious and was about to continue asking.
Bang!!
Suddenly, a violent tremor came from outside the cave, as if something huge was slamming into the ground outside.
"Not good, not good!" A few little demon birds rushed into the cave in panic. "Your Majesty! There was a demoness outside challenging him! Hurry up and take a look!! "
"Banshee? Where are Gao Ni and the others? "Lu Sheng was stunned.
"Lord Gao Ni and the others have been fooled by that demoness. There's no way for them to catch her!" A quick-witted lesser demoness quickly explained.
"Oh? I'll have to go take a look. "Lu Sheng stood up. His huge body caused a series of tremors in the cave as he stood up.
With heavy footsteps, Lu Sheng slowly walked out of the cave. Behind him, Hongyun walked out as well.
On the flat ground outside White Hill Cave stood a beautiful little girl in a white dress. Her neck was wrapped in fluffy rabbit fur.
There were several huge pits on the ground beside her. A few giant birds in tight black leather armor were lying on the ground, unconscious.
One of them even had a huge gash on its body, and its blood flowed like a small stream onto the ground.
The surrounding giant birds surrounded the girl with bloodshot eyes, as if they were ready to swarm her and beat her to death.
This was the scene that Lu Sheng saw when he came out.
"Oh? There's finally someone in charge? "The moment the girl saw Lu Sheng, she sensed a completely different aura. Her eyes immediately lit up, knowing that she had found her master.
"Who are you?" Lu Sheng glanced at the injuries of the other giant birds and roughly knew what level the girl in front of him was at.
"At least Nascent Soul!" He instantly determined the gap between them.
Nascent Soul was different from ordinary cultivators. Only when one reached this stage could the demonic aura in his body be completely transformed into a completely different type of energy, Nascent Qi.
Nascent Qi was much stronger than demonic energy before the Golden Core stage.
Lu Sheng's heart sank. He was currently at the peak of the Foundation Building stage. He would need to surpass the entire Golden Core stage to reach Nascent Soul. He could defeat them, but if they escaped …
He originally thought that White Hill was just a wandering force. He did not expect that they had a backer.
He did not know that if it were not for the fact that the chief of White Hill, Qing Yuan, was required to attend an important ball, no one would avenge them even if this small place was destroyed decades later.
"My name is Jiu Jiu, because I happen to be the 99th child in my family, so I took my name." The pretty girl saw Lu Sheng, and immediately revealed a brighter smile.
"Then, Miss Jiu Jiu, why are you here?" Lu Sheng asked bluntly.
"I'm here to look for Qing Yuan." Jiu Jiu's smile disappeared, and a trace of seriousness appeared on her face.
"Qing Yuan?" Lu Sheng was stunned.
"Yes, my master is about to hold a big banquet, and the song and dance needs to be rehearsed beforehand. Qing Yuan is one of the dancers," Jiu Jiu said bluntly.
She did not know when, but she began to spin a light golden square token between her fingers.
The token was incomparably heavy, but she still moved it as easily as a butterfly fluttering through flowers.
"A dancer?" Lu Sheng's heart sank. Qing Yuan was clearly a Golden Core Demon King before, but now she was only a dancer at the banquet.
"So? Where's Qing Yuan? Call her out, "Jiu Jiu said seriously.
Lu Sheng frowned slightly, and was about to speak.
Suddenly, Red Cloud behind him took a step forward.
"I am Fire Cloud Palace's Red Cloud. Are you the Sun Moon Palace's banquet?" He asked casually, but it made Jiu Jiu instantly shift her attention from Lu Sheng to him.
"Fire Cloud Palace?" Jiu Jiu's expression changed slightly. She was about to attack, but she instantly suppressed her thoughts.
At the same time, she looked at Red Cloud with a hint of caution and caution.
Pa.
The token in her hand instantly stopped moving, and she slowly put it back into her sleeve. At this moment, when she looked at Lu Sheng, the look in her eyes had changed.
"Since Fire Cloud Palace's Immortal Elder is here, then we have been presumptuous …"
After the other party took back the token, the sliver of threat in Lu Sheng's heart quickly disappeared.
"Then … Jiu Jiu will bid farewell. Immortal Elder's whereabouts, I wonder if Jiu Jiu can inform my master? "She was unexpectedly respectful towards the man named Red Cloud.
"Why not? I am a good friend of your palace's Demon King Chaohua. Help me send him my regards, "Red Cloud said warmly to Jiu Jiu with a smiling emoji.
"This junior understands." Jiu Jiu nodded seriously. Then, she looked at Lu Sheng again, turned around, and flew off into the distance. In the blink of an eye, she turned into a cloud of white mist and dissipated into the horizon.
Lu Sheng did not make a move from beginning to end.
He was only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm. It would be easy for him to defeat that girl, but it would be very difficult to silence her completely. He was still at the stage of building his foundation, and did not have the time to learn any divine powers or spells.
Furthermore, if he really did make a move, the token in her hand would instead be the one that posed the greatest threat to him.
"Sun Moon Palace is actually going to hold another banquet …" Red Cloud looked at the distant white mist and muttered something indiscernible.
Lu Sheng waited until Jiu Jiu was completely gone before he cupped his fists and bowed at Red Cloud.
"Thank you for your help, Brother Red Cloud."
He did not expect that annihilating a mere White Hill Fox Clan would actually provoke an opponent of this level.
Right now, he did not want to get into such trouble so quickly.
Fortunately, this mysterious Red Cloud appeared and scared off the other party. Otherwise, even if he personally made a move, it would be very troublesome.
"I will remember this favor," Lu Sheng said seriously. "If there is a chance, I will return it to you. If you are in trouble, you can use this to summon me. "
He casually threw over a blue feather that used to belong to him.
This thing was refined into an Artifact that belonged to him, similar to a messenger talisman. It was a one-time use item.
He had tried it before. No matter the distance, as long as he crushed the feather, he would be able to feel it immediately.
Red Cloud caught the feather and could not help but laugh.
Help? He was the first red cloud in the world to achieve the Dao. As a powerful existence at the Quasi-Sage level, he had even listened to the Dao in the Purple Cloud Palace. How could he need a favor from a mere junior …
Moreover, if he was really in trouble, how could this little bird demon help him?
However, this was the other party's good intention, so he still carefully kept it. He could tell that this was the feather left behind by the other party's first shedding, and it was very important to many bird demons. However, the other party did not hesitate to throw one to him.
This meant that he was treating him as a friend.
He did not like much except for two things — friends and wine. Those were his favorites.
Since it was a friend's kindness, he had to keep it well no matter what.
"Good, good, good. One day, if I am in trouble, I will definitely ask for your help." Red Cloud smiled.
Although he did not think that such a day would ever come.
Lu Sheng nodded.
"Since you have accepted my favor, then I might as well be a good person to the end. Help me guard this place. I will need to make some extra preparations. "
If he guessed correctly, the red cloud in front of him was very likely to be the sad red cloud he had seen on Earth in his memory …
"Huh?" Red Cloud was stunned. He was only passing by, he did not really intend to stay and help.
"Are you considered a friend?" Lu Sheng really did not have any combat power to help him guard this place. It was not easy for him to find a good person, so naturally, he would make use of him first.
Moreover, in this vast world, probably only this Ancestor Red Cloud, who had friends all over the world, would be so amiable and approachable. Just because of a strange belief of his, Ancestor Red Cloud stayed behind to listen in.
The other big shots of this level were all very ostentatious. With his current level, even if he wanted to get in touch with them, he was still too far away.
"If this world is really the place that I have guessed it to be … then this will be interesting …" A chill flashed in Lu Sheng's eyes.
