The reason why he had gone to inform Giant Armor before retreating was because he didn't want to watch Giant Armor get surrounded and killed by the people from the Wind Flower Courtyard. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Unlike Sima Yang, Lu Ye had a pretty good impression of the giant armor.
"The dead can't come back to life. I have a grudge with those people, so we can work together," Lu Ye comforted.
Giant Armor lowered his head and didn't respond. It was unknown whether he had heard Lu Ye or not.
Lu Ye only caught his breath for a moment when he sensed a fluctuation of spiritual power nearby. Lu Ye looked up and saw a cultivator from the Myriad Devil Ridge looking in his direction. Their eyes met, and that person shouted, "Lu Yiye is over here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a Fire Dragon Technique shot toward that person. The scorching heat caused the surrounding air to distort.
That person's expression changed and he dodged. However, Lu Ye's Fire Dragon Technique changed direction and slammed into that person's body. With a miserable scream, that person was blasted down.
"Let's go!"
Lu Ye dashed forward, and Giant Armor followed closely behind. Not far behind them, spiritual power fluctuations rose and fell. It was obvious that the people from the Myriad Devil Ridge were chasing after them.
As they fled, they couldn't shake off the people behind them. Moreover, judging from the movements behind them, there were more and more enemies chasing after them.
If Lu Ye was alone, he could naturally shake off the pursuers behind him. With the support of Wind Travel, it was simply a dream for these people to catch up to him.
However, there was still Giant Armor. Although Giant Armor's speed wasn't slow, it definitely wasn't fast. Moreover, Giant Armor's injuries weren't light. It would be best to find a place for him to recover.
However, with so many pursuers chasing after them, where would be safe if they couldn't shake them off?
After thinking about it, it seemed that there was only one place they could go.
A moment later, Lu Ye led Giant Armor around several streets and rushed to a courtyard. The two of them had just arrived when the Wanmo Ridge cultivators who were chasing them from behind had already revealed themselves. Chuqing and Ruoyan's figures were among them. They were running at an extremely fast speed.
When enemies meet, their eyes turn red!
Then, they saw Lu Ye tidy his clothes, gently push open the courtyard's door, and step inside.
"Surround them!" Chu Qing shouted. In this short period of time, she had gathered seventy to eighty people under her command. These were practically the only remaining cultivators from the Wind Flower School. There were also some loose cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge, but there weren't many of them.
With so many people, even if Lu Yiye could really control the Immortal Essence Defenders, they still had the strength to fight. Moreover, she didn't see any traces of the Immortal Essence Defenders just now.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! A group of cultivators leaped onto the high wall, surrounding the entire courtyard tightly.
Chuqing and Ruoyan led twenty people in from the main entrance, their killing intent soaring.
As far as the eye could see, there was a swing in the middle of the courtyard. A woman in a red dress was sitting on the swing with her back facing them. The previously arrogant Lu Yiye was now standing respectfully not far from the woman in the red dress. He seemed to be saying something to the woman.
The Wind Flower Courtyard naturally knew that there were special spirit bodies in the Immortal Essence City. They had encountered a few before, but they were all killed by them. The main reason was that these special spirit bodies would often make some extremely strange requests, and these requests were difficult for them to satisfy.
If they couldn't satisfy them, they couldn't escape and could only take action.
Therefore, when she saw the woman in the red dress, Chuqing knew that the other party was a special spirit body. She glanced at her and didn't care at first, but she soon realized that something was wrong because she couldn't see the other party's spiritual aura.
Ruoyan, who was standing beside her, wasn't so observant. Her eyes were spitting fire as she gritted her teeth and shouted at Lu Yiye, "Lu Yiye, your death is here!"
On the other side, Lu Yiye was talking to the woman in the red dress in a low voice. He raised his hand and pointed at Ruoyan and the others. "It's them. They've been chasing me and won't let me find Tang Yuan."
The gently swaying swing came to a stop. Lu Ye's hair stood on end at this moment. Giant Armor let out a low growl from its throat and pulled Lu Ye behind it, shielding him behind it.
Looking at the broad back in front of him, Lu Yiye was somewhat stunned.
"Retreat!" Chuqing also sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly shouted.
* Boom … *
The courtyard door closed.
At the same time, screams rang out. The Myriad Devil Ridge cultivators who were on the wall fell down one by one like dumplings.
Falling from a height of a few feet wouldn't kill them, but it was very embarrassing.
In the small courtyard, dozens of people were squeezed in.
Chuqing's expression was so serious that it was about to drip water because she experienced what Lu Yiye had felt before. His spiritual power was imprisoned in his body and he couldn't move. What made her feel even more desperate was that Lu Yiye seemed to be in cahoots with this strange woman in the red dress!
Looking up, she saw Lu Yiye looking in her direction. Their eyes met, and the other party's expression was clearly somewhat smug. He even winked at her.
Chuqing's mood became even worse.
Since cultivating until now, she had encountered many dangerous situations, but she had never felt more despair than this. When the strange changes occurred in the small courtyard, she knew that this time, she had provoked a powerful existence that she couldn't afford to provoke.
The strength of the woman in the red dress was unimaginably deep. She was definitely not someone that they, who were only in the Spirit Stream Realm, could contend against.
Was it because of her that Lu Yiye could control the Immortal Essence Guards?
No wonder this guy would escape here …
It had to be said that Chuqing's thoughts were off.
Lu Ye being able to control the Immortal Essence Guards had nothing to do with the woman in the red dress. He came here only because he had nowhere to hide with the giant armor. He couldn't bear to throw the giant armor away.
The development of the current situation undoubtedly made him very satisfied. If the woman in the red dress could kill these dozens of people from the Myriad Devil Ridge in a rage, that would be even better.
"Have you seen Tang Yuan?"
The woman in the red dress asked.
The smug expression on Lu Ye's face disappeared, and he frowned. Things seemed to be … a little different from what he had expected.
Chu Qing also frowned. The massacre that she had imagined did not come. This allowed her to see a glimmer of hope. Thinking back to the various oddities of the special spirit bodies that she had encountered before, and what Lu Ye had said before, this fellow had also mentioned Glutinous Rice Balls. Chu Qing carefully replied, "No."
"Can you help me find Tang Yuan?"
The woman in the red dress asked again.
Lu Ye sighed in his heart, knowing that his plan had failed. He had originally wanted to kill with a borrowed knife, but now it seemed that this woman in the red dress wasn't very helpful.
In other words, killing wasn't what she had hoped for. She was only thinking about the cat called Tang Yuan. Naturally, the more people looking for the cat, the better.
"Sure," Chuqing replied.
Then she felt the spiritual power in her body flowing again, and the omnipresent pressure around her disappeared. She gasped heavily, knowing that she was temporarily out of danger.
After a moment of silence, Chuqing whispered a few words into Ruoyan's ear. Ruoyan immediately led most of the people out of the small courtyard and surrounded the outside. Once Lu Ye came out, he would be caught off guard.
Chuqing stayed behind with a few people to keep an eye on Lu Ye's movements.
Lu Ye naturally saw through her plan, but he didn't have a good way to solve this situation. With his strength, he had a chance to get rid of Chuqing and the others here, but judging from the woman in the red dress' attitude just now, it was obviously not rational to fight in this small courtyard.
No one knew what the consequences would be if they really fought here.
Perhaps he could test the woman in the red dress' attitude a little?
Just as he was thinking this, Chuqing actually walked directly towards him.
Lu Ye's hand that was holding the hilt gently loosened and gripped it again, the killing intent in his heart gradually rising. If the other party dared to come within five feet of him, he was confident that he could take her life with three slashes.
However, just as Lu Ye's killing intent rose, he felt a prickling sensation on his back. Needless to say, the source of this feeling was definitely the woman in the red dress.
The stronger his killing intent, the more intense the prickling sensation. In the end, it really felt like thousands of needles were stabbing him.
Chuqing's steps also became difficult, sweat gradually forming on her forehead, and she slowly came to a stop.
She also thought of the same thing as Lu Ye, testing the woman in the red dress' attitude.
The next moment, Lu Ye released his hand from the hilt and withdrew the killing intent in his heart. Suddenly, his body felt light.
Then, under Chuqing's horrified gaze, he quickly approached her.
"What are you doing?" Chuqing couldn't help but retreat, like a weak little girl who had encountered a bully. She retreated until she was far away from the door, with nowhere to go.
Lu Ye expressionlessly raised his hand and patted her head. He used all his strength to ruffle her hair, messing it up.
"You have to find Glutinous Rice Balls. Glutinous Rice Balls are very important. If you can't find them, you won't have dinner tonight!"
Several Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators stared at this scene with their mouths agape. Their expressions were extremely strange.
When Lu Ye approached Chuqing, they also wanted to stop him, but every time they wanted to do something, there was a great danger shrouding them, so they didn't dare to act rashly.
Lu Ye turned and left, leaving Chuqing, whose hair was like a chicken's nest, standing there with a dull look in her eyes.
She hadn't been attacked by Lu Ye, so she didn't suffer any injuries. However, the scene just now was even more unbearable than if she had been killed. The enemy who killed her sister was right in front of her. Not only was she unable to take revenge, but she was even taught a lesson by her enemy!
Glutinous Rice Balls! What the hell was Glutinous Rice Balls!
She suppressed the anger and surging killing intent in her heart and took a few deep breaths. Only then did she feel alive again.
On the other side, Lu Ye walked to the center of the small courtyard, where Ju Jia was sitting cross-legged. He had just left the woman in the red dress' side. His skin was rough and his flesh was thick, but he didn't feel safe staying with the woman in the red dress. At this moment, he was staring at Chuqing with bloodshot eyes.
He only stared at her without the slightest killing intent.
Lu Ye didn't tell him about the mysteries of this small courtyard, but in reality, he understood it much earlier than Lu Ye did. Someone as pure as him, who had a penetrating heart, often had an intuition as sharp as a wild beast's. Perhaps he didn't understand the mysteries within, but he knew what to do to benefit himself.
Lu Ye took out a few spirit pills and threw them into his mouth. Then, he sat down on a piece of rock beside Ju Jia and took out two bottles of spirit pills for him. One bottle was Spirit Accumulation Pills, and the other was Healing Pills.
Ju Jia didn't have a storage bag on him. Lu Ye had noticed this when he first met him. Without a storage bag, he naturally couldn't take any spirit pills.
He didn't refuse Lu Ye's kindness. He reached out to take the bottles and opened them. Regardless of how many spirit pills were inside, he raised his head and swallowed them all.
He opened the second bottle and swallowed them all.
