The battle on Spirit Peak ended quickly. Without the spell cultivator controlling it, the power of the spell was greatly reduced. It crashed into Lu Ye's defensive spiritual pattern and shattered it. Lu Ye's figure flew out. Although he was in a sorry state, he was not seriously injured.
When Lu Ye rushed to Spirit Peak, he saw his second senior sister, Shui Yuan, at a glance.
There was also a cultivator with blood at the corner of his mouth. His face was pale and he was holding his chest.
Looking at his attire, it was obvious that he was a spell cultivator. The spell that attacked Lu Ye just now was also cast by him.
At this moment, the spell cultivator explained to Shui Yuan with a distressed face, "Senior sister Shui Yuan, it's really a misunderstanding. I received a secret order that there would be a thief from Wanmo Ridge passing by and I was ordered to capture him. Who knew that this would happen!" "Whose secret order was it?" Shui Yuan asked coldly.
The spell cultivator smiled bitterly, "Senior sister is also a guard of the Military Province. You should know that the law is like a mountain. Don't make things difficult for me."
Since it was a secret order, how could he casually tell others? Shui Yuan stared at him coldly. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Get lost!"
The spell cultivator took a deep breath and cupped his fists at Shui Yuan before leaving quickly.
"Second senior sister." Lu Ye stepped forward.
Lu Ye was not surprised that Shui Yuan might be following behind him to protect him. Although he did not find any trace or aura of Shui Yuan along the way, he could feel that someone was following him when he left Jade Blood Sect.
The Sect Master was with Master, so the person behind him could only be his second senior sister.
"Are you alright?" Shui Yuan turned around and asked. She glanced at Lu Ye from head to toe. After confirming that he was unharmed, she was relieved.
"I'm fine!" Lu Ye shook his head, "What will happen if I don't arrive at Grand Sky City on time?"
"Military orders are like mountains. If you don't arrive on time, you'll definitely die!" “
Lu Ye raised his eyebrows, "Someone wants to kill me?" "It seems that you've realized it."
Lu Ye said, "I didn't think about it before, but some things are just too coincidental."
He had just left the Jade Blood Sect for Grand Heaven City when he encountered a flood along the way. Then, he encountered the Grand Heaven Alliance's sword cultivators who were chasing after the Myriad Devil Ridge scoundrels. Unfortunately, the Myriad Devil Ridge scoundrels wanted to capture him when they were escaping.
If these two incidents were just coincidences, then the fact that he had been ambushed by that spell cultivator was worth thinking about.
A powerful attack from a True Lake Stage cultivator was something that Lu Ye might not be able to defend against even with the defensive spirit rune. It could be said that if Shui Yuanyuan didn't appear in time to injure the cultivator and prevent him from casting his spell, Lu Ye would definitely be injured.
It might even be a serious injury!
Once that happened, the journey would definitely be delayed, and whether or not they could reach Vast Sky City before the time limit was another matter altogether.
The Law Cultivator who ambushed him might not know the truth.
But from his point of view, even if he had seriously injured Lu Ye, as long as his life was not in danger, there was nothing wrong with it. He was just following orders. At most, it would be a misunderstanding. When the time came, he could just apologize.
This was also the reason why Shui Yuan didn't kill him. If she really killed a True Lake Stage cultivator from the same camp, the situation would become very troublesome.
What's more, he might have been used. "From the looks of it, the flood and the escaping Wan Mo Ridge cultivators were just probing?" Lu Ye suddenly understood.
These two incidents, while delaying Lu Ye's journey, were mainly to test whether there was an expert protecting Lu Ye.
They didn't see any traces of the Jade Blood Sect's experts, which was why they attacked directly.
"Little Junior Brother, you are very smart." Shui Yuan looked at Lu Ye. "The road to Vast Sky City is thorny, you must be careful."
"I know." Lu Ye nodded.
To be able to arrange all these things without anyone noticing, the person behind the scenes must have extraordinary power and status. Their target wasn't him, but the Jade Blood Sect.
The Wan Mo Ridge wasn't a monolithic block, but wasn't the Vast Sky Alliance the same?
A large and small faction formed by sects and clans, with many factions within, it was very normal for them to have their own plans.
The poison left behind by the Jade Blood Sect more than thirty years ago left many people brooding over it.
"Go, there won't be any more waves on the road ahead. After entering the Military Province Guards, remember to keep a low profile."
Since Shui Yuan had already appeared, the person behind the scenes wouldn't dare to do anything to avoid being caught.
"Yes, Senior Sister, take care!" Lu Ye bowed and turned to leave.
Looking at the direction Lu Ye left, Shui Yuan was silent for a long time. After a long while, she raised her hand and tapped on her battlefield imprint, sending out a few messages.
Just as Shui Yuan said, there were no more waves on the road ahead.
Lu Ye sped all the way and finally arrived at Vast Sky City in the evening.
The twelve passes of the Military Province were the frontline for the Vast Sky Alliance to fight against the Wan Mo Ridge. After these twelve passes was the center of the entire Military Province Guards.
Vast Sky City was also the last line of defense for the Vast Sky Alliance.
Just the city wall alone was a hundred zhang tall. On the city wall, there were traces of time and many traces left behind after a great battle could be faintly seen.
A few decades ago, Vast Sky City had experienced a great calamity and was almost captured by the Wan Mo Ridge.
If the center was captured that day, the Military Province would definitely be in danger.
So far, all the cities that Lu Ye had seen were like grass in front of a big tree in front of Vast Sky City. Even if he was dozens of miles away, he could clearly see the various defensive structures on the city wall.
Moving his body, he quickly arrived in front of Vast Sky City. Lu Ye looked left and right, trying to find the city gate. After looking around, he realized that there was no gate in the city.
There were constantly cultivators rushing over from all directions and all of them directly rushed into the city.
Lu Ye understood that for cultivators who could fly, there was no need for the city gate to exist. If it really existed, it might instead become a weak point in the defense.
If he wanted to enter the city, he could just fly in.
Learning from the others, Lu Ye directly flew over the city wall and rushed into the city.
As soon as he stepped into Vast Sky City, Lu Ye felt the battlefield imprint on the back of his hand jump slightly and emit a blue light urgently.
Under normal circumstances, there would only be such a reaction when a cultivator took the initiative to show his battlefield imprint.
However, there was clearly a mysterious force in Vast Sky City that could stimulate the battlefield imprint of all cultivators who entered the city to determine the camp of the person who came in.
In this way, no cultivator from Wanmo Ridge could barge into this place.
Although the city was large, there were not many cultivators in the city. Most of them were Cloud River Tier cultivators who had just rushed here from outside.
There was an accident at the Cloud River Battlefield. At this time, it was merging with the Peerless Continent, causing the Cloud River Battlefield to be temporarily closed. The Cloud River Tier cultivators who had nowhere to go naturally flocked to the front line of the confrontation between the two camps. No matter what, after entering the Military Prefecture Guards, they could receive a monthly salary. That was real military merit. If they killed enemies at the front line or completed missions given by the Military Prefecture Guards, they could receive even more benefits.
To cultivators, this was naturally a great attraction.
Hence, at this stage, there were many cultivators in Vast Sky City. They all rushed here from various large sects to prepare to join the Military Prefecture Guards. Usually, there were very few people in this large city. 99% of the Military Prefecture Guards were at the front line. There were not many people left in the center.
Now that they had arrived at Vast Sky City, they naturally had to report first.
He was the majority of the Cloud River Tier cultivators who came here.
They were all different. Others came here of their own accord to join the Military Prefecture Guards, while he came here after receiving a transfer order.

He was different from the majority of the Cloud River Tier cultivators who came here. Others came here of their own accord to join the Military Prefecture Guards, while he came here after receiving a transfer order.
Hence, he had to report to the Dispatch Office first. Shui Yuan had specially reminded him about this before he came. The so-called three-day time limit was not based on the time he arrived at Vast Sky City, but on the time he reported to the Dispatch Office.
He was not too sure where the Dispatch Office was, but this kind of thing could be easily found out by asking around.
Not long after, Lu Ye arrived outside a large hall. There were cultivators standing guard outside the hall. When they saw Lu Ye, they all looked over with rapt attention.
Lu Ye clasped his fists. "Jade Blood Sect's Lu Ye has come to report! “
The person on the left said, "Wait here. The Commander is receiving a guest!
Lu Ye then stood quietly to one side, waiting silently.
At this time, it was already night, and the sky was full of stars, but the whole Vast Sky City was still extraordinarily lively. A large number of cultivators flew here and there in the sky.
Vast Sky City did not forbid flying. After all, this city was vast. If flying was not allowed, it would waste a lot of time just traveling.
Lu Ye was bored, so he raised his head to look, and very soon, he saw something.
There seemed to be an unspoken rule for cultivators flying, and that was, the higher the cultivation level, the higher they could fly.
For example, Spirit Stream Tier cultivators could control flying Spirit Tools.
Most of them could fly within ten centimeters of the ground. When one reached the Cloud River Tier, it would be within sixty meters, and when one reached the True Lake Tier, it would be within sixty meters. It was unknown how this rule came to be.
Although the cultivators came and went, it was quite lively, but the Dispatch Office was quite cold. It seemed that he was the only one waiting for the Dispatch Office.
Lu Ye did not think too much about it. Now that the situation was here, he might as well take it as it came.
The stars and moon moved, and time passed.
Lu Ye frowned.
The time limit on the transfer order was based on the time he would report to the Dispatch Office.
It was calculated, so although he arrived at Vast Sky City within the time limit, if he did not report to the Dispatch Office in time, he would probably be punished by military law, and his head would roll.
Thinking of this, Lu Ye stepped forward and came to the cultivator on duty. He cupped his fists and said, "Senior Martial Brother, may I ask when the Dispatch Office will receive me?"
That cultivator still only glanced at Lu Ye, and replied casually, "Wait!"
Lu Ye frowned. "May I trouble you to pass on the message?" That cultivator's expression was rather impatient.
Lu Ye stared at him fixedly.
In the main hall, the fragrance of tea wafted. A very charming woman raised her cup and sipped lightly. She held a jade scroll in her hand and checked it quietly. From time to time, the corners of her mouth would curl up, as if she had seen something interesting.
On a chair at the side, there was a man in martial arts clothes reclining. He crossed his legs and looked happy and content.
"Leg!" The woman did not even raise her head and said softly. The man in martial arts clothes snorted, put down his crossed leg, and sat up straight. "He's already here, and you don't want to see him?" "It's not time yet, what's the hurry?" "Hurry."
If the time limit is up, he will be punished by military law. Aren't you afraid that Shuiyuan will take your life? That girl has also advanced to the Divine Ocean Tier. " "Hurry."
