After watching Ju Jia leave, Ji Yan looked away and said with a serious face, "Brother Yi Ye, our sect is not in a good situation. If you are willing, can you stay and fight with us?"
Lu Ye said, "That's why I came here."
Although Ji Yan knew that since Lu Ye had come, he probably wouldn't leave, but to be able to get such an answer from him made him feel relieved.
"That's good." He asked again, "When you were out exploring, did you meet people from the Wind Flower Yard?"
"Yes, I did."
Not only did they meet, but they also fought against them many times.
"This time, the Wind Flower Yard is a bit strange." Ji Yan frowned and voiced his worries, "In the previous battle, the main reason why our sect was able to last so long under the assault of the Myriad Devil Ridge was because the people from the Wind Flower Manor didn't come. Although some of them appeared later, there weren't many of them. I don't know what the large group of people from the Wind Flower Manor are busy with. If they had come before, our sect wouldn't have been able to resist.
He didn't feel complacent because he had turned the tables in the previous battle. He knew the disadvantage of his sect, which was that they had fewer people than the Demons Ridge. Although the people of the Sunlight Mountain were beaten back this time, as long as they regrouped with the Wind Flower Yard, it wouldn't take long for them to come back. When that time came, they probably wouldn't be able to hold them off.
"As for the Wind Flower Yard … Brother Ji, you don't need to worry too much. There should be only a few of them left."
"Hmm?" Ji Yan looked at Lu Ye confusedly.
"The others are all dead." Lu Ye calculated in his mind. When Chu Qing led the team to ambush them, more than a dozen people from the Wind Flower Yard died. Later on, the people of the Wind Flower Yard accidentally injured Ju Jia, so more than a dozen people died on the spot. He led the Bi Ling to chase them for half a day, and more than thirty people from the Wind Flower Yard died. Altogether, there were about sixty people.
This time, there were about a hundred people from the Wind Flower Yard. Some of them might be unlucky enough to be captured by the Immortal Origin Guards and kept in the dungeon.
Therefore, the people of the Wind Flower Yard should be the ones led by Chu Qing.
Ji Yan really wanted to ask how he died, but he quickly realized that since Lu Ye could speak so confidently, it obviously had something to do with him.
"Is this Brother Yi Ye's work?"
"Sort of."
Ji Yan was stunned by Lu Ye on the spot. With his own strength … even if he added Giant Armor, there were only two of them, but he had actually tormented the Wind Flower Courtyard until only thirty people were left. How shocking was this?
At this moment, he realized that he had been worrying too much. It was not that the people from Wind Flower Yard didn't come to join those from Saint Sunlight Mountain. They had already done so. He had seen everything.
"It's those spirit bodies?" Ji Yan immediately thought of something. The reason why he was so polite to Lu Ye was because of the Blue Blood Sect's reputation, and the second reason was that he had just seen those spirits fighting for Lu Ye.
This was especially true for the spiritual body that was crying and playing the pipa. It could be said that if it weren't for her, the battle wouldn't have ended so easily.
"Yes." Lu Ye nodded and did not deny it.
Since he had already stepped forward to fight side by side with the Hidden God Palace, there was no need for him to hide certain things. At the very least, he had to let the cultivators on his side know what he was capable of so that it would be easier for them to cooperate.
"Brother Yi Ye's methods are truly unfathomable." Ji Yan sighed.
Lu Ye changed the topic and said, "Brother Ji, what do you plan to do next?"
Ji Yan said, "Let's take a rest first. Now that Brother Yi Ye and Brother Giant Armor have joined us, the people from the Demons Ridge probably won't dare to come again."
"Brother Ji, have you ever thought of fighting back?"
Ji Yan said, "Of course we have to fight back. Although Immortal Origin City is large, one mountain can't accommodate two tigers. Moreover, if I'm not wrong, the Myriad Devil Ridge will definitely not let this matter rest. Previously, their deployment was disrupted by Brother Yi Ye. Although they suffered some losses, they didn't suffer any serious injuries. Once they regroup, they will definitely make a comeback. What I am thinking is that instead of passively defending like this, it is better to take the initiative to attack. Let's take a rest today and go fight them tomorrow. Brother Yi Ye, what do you think? "
"I have no objection."
It could be said that Ji Yan's thoughts were exactly what he had in mind. However, he was alone at the moment, and the Hidden God Palace was the leader of the Haotian Alliance. If the Hidden God Palace didn't take a stand, things would be difficult for him.
Lu Ye felt relieved after finding out Ji Yan's attitude.
"Brother Ji, do you know where there is a special spirit body nearby?"
Since he was going to fight the Demons Ridge, he naturally had to quickly replenish the number of Nightmare Spirits under him, especially those with special spirit bodies like Liu Sanbao and the pipa woman. The more, the better.
He only had two special spirit bodies under him at the moment, but both Liu Sanbao and the pipa woman could play a role that far exceeded the other Nightmare Spirits. There was no need to mention the pipa woman. In a large-scale battle, her cries and the sound of her pipa could cause a certain degree of mental disturbance to the enemy, imperceptibly restraining the enemy's strength.
Liu Sanbao's performance wasn't as eye-catching as the pipa woman's, but that was because the pipa woman had overshadowed his limelight. His three dice were extremely lethal and could play a role that far exceeded that of any Ninth Order cultivator.
Previously, the probability of encountering such a special spirit body by himself was not high. Now that he had joined the people of the Hidden God Palace, he could naturally inquire about it.
Ji Yan's expression changed slightly when he heard this. He quickly realized something and said, "I know of a special spirit body. It is not far from here. If Brother Yi Ye is in a hurry, I can send someone to take you there."
"Then I'll have to trouble you."
Ji Yan immediately sent a message to an Eighth Order Weapon Cultivator and gave him a few instructions. The Weapon Cultivator nodded and led the way.
This Weapon Cultivator obviously knew Lu Ye's identity. During the previous battle, he had seen Lu Ye and the Nightmare Spirits from afar. However, there were some things that he couldn't ask casually, so he kept them in his heart and just chatted casually with Lu Ye. When he mentioned the special spirit body, Lu Ye kept it in mind.
Lu Ye didn't encounter any Immortal Yuan Guards on the way, which made him feel a little regretful.
After walking a few streets, he soon came to a building with a lantern hanging at the door.
Lu Ye looked up and saw a tattered plaque in front of the door. He couldn't make out the words on it.
The Eighth Order Weapon Cultivator stopped and coughed lightly, "Brother Yi Ye, I won't accompany you in."
Lu Ye nodded and pushed the door open.
As soon as he walked in, the door closed with a bang. Lu Ye looked in front of him and saw a scholar-looking spirit body burying his head in writing at a fast speed in front of a broken table. He didn't even notice that someone had entered.
Lu Ye went straight forward and sat down opposite the scholar, waiting quietly.
After half an hour, the scholar finished writing a piece of paper and picked it up with a smile. He looked at it and said proudly, "It's really a peerless article."
He looked up at Lu Ye and said with an expression of familiarity, "You came at the right time. Help me evaluate it."
Saying so, he handed the article in his hand to Lu Ye.
Lu Ye didn't take it and instead reached out to stroke Hu Po's fur on his leg while looking at the scholar quietly.
According to the weapon cultivator, the spiritual body of the scholar was not dangerous. He was not like Liu Sanbao, who gambled with his life. He would only write an article for an outsider and be satisfied with a compliment.
This was also the reason why the Weapon Cultivator didn't follow him in. He had read the scholar's article before and it was full of bullshit. Going against his conscience and praising it, it really hurt his conscience.
Lu Ye didn't know what skill this scholar had, but the aura around his body was stronger than Liu Sanbao's.
His finger stopped on Hu Po's head and lightly tapped it twice. Spirit bodies suddenly floated out and surrounded the scholar.
The scholar looked around and picked up his writing brush and held it in front of his chest. He put on a strong front and said, "A gentleman uses his mouth, not his fists."
"Okay!"
Lu Ye agreed readily.
Then, Hu Po raised his head and roared at him.
A moment later, the door opened. The Weapon Cultivator waiting outside saw Lu Ye walk out unscathed and breathed a sigh of relief. He had sensed that there was quite a commotion inside just now.
"Brother Yi Ye, Senior Brother Ji sent a message just now. He asked about two more places from other Rogue Cultivators."
"Do you know where they are?"
"I have a rough idea."
"Then lead the way."
Along the way, this Eighth-Order Weapon Cultivator finally saw how Lu Ye controlled his Spirit Bodies. Whenever they encountered an Immortal Yuan Guard along the way, Lu Ye would happily pounce on them. Then, one Spirit Body after another would float out of the pet beast's body and take down a group of Immortal Yuan Guards in a few moves. Then, the pet beast would swallow the Immortal Yuan Guards one by one.
This made him click his tongue in wonder. He wasn't a short-sighted person, but he had never seen a Monster Beast with such a special ability. After swallowing the Spirits, it could make them obey its orders.
An hour later, the two arrived at the second place. The Eighth-Order Weapon Cultivator followed Lu Ye this time, probably wanting to broaden his horizons. Then, he saw a group of Immortal Yuan Guards appear and shoot out Spirit Binding Chains. Lu Ye went up and slashed a few times. Then, his pet beast did the same.
The whole process was extremely skillful and thought-provoking.
Another hour later, they arrived at the third place.
After a while, the two walked out side by side.
"Is there anything else?" Lu Ye asked, a little unsatisfied.
"No." The Eighth-Order Weapon Cultivator shook his head, still looking a little absent-minded.
"Then, let's look for the Immortal Yuan Guards."
Special Spirit Bodies could only be encountered by chance. There were quite a few Immortal Yuan Guards. Although the number was much lower than at the beginning, it was still possible to encounter them.
It wasn't until half a day later that Lu Ye finished replenishing the Puppet Spirits.
There weren't many captains, only seven of them. However, there were five with special spiritual bodies. Apart from Liu Sanbao and the pipa woman, there was also a scholar, a blind fortune-teller, and a butcher.
This lineup was really a bit strange.
It wasn't strange when one thought about it. These Special Spirit Bodies were originally cultivators of Immortal Yuan City. When Immortal Yuan City was destroyed, they turned into Spirit Bodies for various reasons and stayed behind. Naturally, there were all kinds of people.
Returning to their encampment with the Eighth-Order Weapon Cultivator, Ji Yan greeted them enthusiastically. Obviously, he had received some news from his fellow disciples.
